According to Justice Davis some constituencies have already reported that the task was carried out entirely free of charge to the government. Reports that blank certificates we^re obtained by certain persons, who might issue false certificates to people who do not wish to register, are being investigated. Mr. Davis points out that these would be useless, as they can be checked in Ottawa by the Dominion statistician, Dr. R. H. Coats, in five minutes.

At the latter point the deCranahl interests, the Omineca Placers in charge of Bert McCorkell and the Lost Creek Placers on Mon-son in charge of Bert McDonald all reported expectations of a profitable clean-up in the three big hydraulic operations this season. Many smaller operations and individual placer workings in the Manson, German-sen and other parts of tiie northern Omineca were reported to him to be meeting with satisfactory results. Old-timers in the district informed Mr. Pidgeon that this year's clean-up of placer gold may well prove to be the highest in Omineca history." At both McCorkeH's and McDonald's workings the operators reported having uncovered, exceedingly rich gravels this season which they are now piping to the sluice boxes. The lode mining: in the vicinity of Fort St. James is reported to be meeting with marked success, according to information supplied to ". Pidgeon.

The several reported outcrops in northern Omineca north of Prince George are not mentioned in the bulletin, presumably not being developed sufficinetiy up to the present to justify an examination by the government engineers. The United States is credited with being the largest producer of molybdenum in the world.
