BEDFORD MAIL TRrBUXE, IfEBFORI), OREGON, MONDAY. OCTOBER 2, 1933 PAOE TTTREE Hiram MeaderSees Rich Returns for Those Who Seek Radium in Canada By Eva Nealon Hamilton "Go north, young man, go north Into the Great Bear Lake country" Is the advice that Hiram Meader of thla city would give today to youth, In search of a new frontier. When a bowte knife and a revol ver answered man's needs In the Territory of Washington, he preceded the trains there In '83. When the gleam of gold drew men to the new state, northward, he rode the Five Finger rapid to penetrate the Alas kan country In '98. And if he were a few years younger today, radium would lure him Into that part of Canada of which he ' speaks. He would take a plane; aa he took the raplda (right now), he declared yesterday, and come out with his share of the precious mineral. For even aa radium la the mineral of today, so Is the Great Bear Lake country the 1033 frontier, and the plane Us means of penetration. There la alwaya new wealth. There la always a new. frontier for youth with the courage to find It, and Mr. Meader believes he Is one who knows a new frontier when he sees It. In opposition to the wishes of all his family, he left the Nebraska farm when he was 19 to go Into "that new country," the Territory of Wash ington. Many western winds, in zero weather, have since blown across his brow, but he still has more hairs on his head, he declared yesterday, than hi eastern brother, now an lmport and Industrialist. The latter haa a irold name plate on his door, but he has never watched the Ice break in the Yukon. He waa never wrecked in Thirty Mile river. He never knew "Swift Water Bill." (aa Hiram and Ownle. Patton did), and he never saw Annie McBrlde dance In a shower of nugget, weighing up $18,000. The railroad war was on when Mr. Meader bought his western ticket in '82. It cost him 920 from Omaha to San Francisco. If he had waited one day he could have bought the same for one dollar. There were no trains Into the territory, so he took the old steamer Queen from San Francisco to Seattle, arriving there Just at the close of the Chinese riots (more reason for the bowle knife). He waa on the territory board. when Washington later became state, and was running a store at Lowell, Wash., when gold was dis covered In Alaska. He sold out and started north, Joining a party at Skagway. And it was with that party that he found himself wrecked on the steamer St. Thomas in Thirty Mile river. All the way down, the river resembled a letter "S." The steamer would nose its way up on the bank to make the bends. The last time It struck a reef of rocks IS E MARLIN, Tex., Oct. 2.
