Some things may be done better in Canada than in this country. For example, there is the gold commissioner. He sits on the case on the ground where the dispute arises, hears evidence while the witnesses are yet alive and available, uses his own common sense and good judgment and renders his decision in time for the legal owner to work his claim next day. The chances are ten to one that the gold commissioner gives better satisfaction generally in a mining camp than could any poking process of appeal.
