reoently : thrown : cpen to mineral
looationg, will be tbe greatest mialnfr
oamp of any in tbe world for perbapg
100 rears to oome.
Tbis ia tbe opinion of Van B. DeLaab
rontt, ei mayor of Portland, who,
HamsrU vtrtftJtstmtog tbli oUt aa hie
borne, ia extensively engaged in tbe
mining industry in tbe great mineral
belt reaching from the state of Washing
ton far into tbe British possessions.
Mr. DeLBsbmntt'e headquarters are at
Spokane, He Ib at present in tbe city
combining business with pleasure, and
will remain perhaps a week.
In speaking of tbe fntare of tbis
promising theater of mining sotivity,
Mr. DeLasbmntt said:
"There is no tjaeBlion in my mind that
this mineral belt, wben once dereloped,
will astonish the world. For extent of
mineral-bearing rock no other oamp io
tbe world equals it. While consider,
ably prospected, it is impossible as yet
to ectimate tbe extent of the bidden
wealth awaiting the touch of capital and
intelligent effort. Development work of
neeessfty has been slow, for it is a
country that cannot be developed with
out capital. Tbe Klondike discoveries
bave also operated as a temporary set
back to this seotion, bnt it is once more
coming to the front Eastern capital is
in the field seeking investment, and
many promising properties bave recently
obsnged hands. The next few years
will sec great aetivity in this section,
snd Le Rnis and War Eagles will per
haps be numbered by tbe doreo.
"The oew road bailding from Robe
son to Midway will give rail common!
cation to some of lbs most promising
camps io tbs Kettle river distriot, sod
will be the means of alimoletiog de
velopment work sil along tbe line
Tberc are at present a boot 3.000 men
emplovedoo the road, end do time will
be lost Io poshing it to completion. Ac
soon aa the ore gels within reach of a
smelter too will beer something drop
