May 81 linvc bcon some tlmclfcf Rossland, nnd as many of my friends are thinking of com lag lierc, and want some Informa tion about tlic place, I thought it better to glyc it through the columns of The Journal. It Is a hard matter to describe this place, what has :becn done and the out look for the future. The articles I have seen in the press Uivc been in the main true. But not all of the truth consequently very mis ending. The term hundreds of build ings going up Just now, leads one to think it is booming, when the reverse it a truer stuto of affairs. There arc at this writing about 'ten buildings In course of erection, that will average 20xC0 and two stories high, but do not amount to much as far as work is concerned, eight or ten men will finish one in two weeks. Then there arc aboui thirty build ings whose average will -.be 12x10 one story high, what are known as box and rough, three men will build one of these in three days. There are at a rough estimate about twenty-Aye hundred buildings, twenty hundred of these will not average more than 12x20, one story, box. Daring the winter these shantys went up like mushrooms, and carpen tersand laborers kept rushing In and are si ill coming, while the mushroom bjsincss has ceased. The result is apparant to anyone. More idle than busy men. This is the .vorst place for working people to come to In America Just now for work, as a nan is lucky, indeed, IT he strikes work, and expenses are very hlgh,$G a month for one room cabin, unfurn ished, and it will perhaps cost you $3 per week for food. But if you want anything like a home spot, everyone culling himself man is entitled to, it will cost you just. $7.75 per week, with 5cc ts extra for nic and l" cents extra for eggs with fresh meat order. I was told at Salem t hat Brown was making from $5 to $10 per day on sash and doors, .and Tthat .another mu from Scotts -Mills was working every day for $3 per day. This last man. 1 found working for his board and Brown and Shipp, of Salem, not doing even that well, neither having work. The true state of affairs given me ten days ago would have saved me some money, but bought experience is the best, and this is all my own and paid for. As for Rossland and Its future I have but one opinion. That Is the future looks even brighter than now, (of course to mining men), There are a good many mines working and ship ping ore. Many working and piling up ore for future use, and now mines dot the hill sides everywhere, In all stages of development. Had I money for Investment I would buy stock here in preference to any other. The provincial government have new min ing laws before Its committees now, with a view to securing greater safety to investors of minnlng stock. There are today shares being sold on mines that do not exist. But there is no need of any one loosing. It It a small matter to find out whether a certain mine exists or not and its stage of develppement, prospects, etc. The Le Roy mine probably shows the very best developement bo far (al though the War Eagle is not far be liind.) They have some of the very best machinery. The drills are worked with air compressors,350(h.p.,) with fly wheel weighing fifteen tons, and the mine is some 600 feet deep. The expenses of shipping ore are thousands of dollars.,, Ttfey expect to build a Rmclter for this and other mines, near the Internationa bound-! iiiy, In the near future. Five cents invested in this mine a few years ago would be worth $750 now. Don't some of you McKinley men wish you had bought a thousand shares? Well, you didn't and now with a four story tariff your golden opportunity la gone. There is more conlldence today IrLthoEeRoi mine stockholders than ihe (people of the United States have In the ability of' the government to restore prosperity with such n tariff. But tlmo will tell. Well, all good people, stay where you arc, ir you can. The mechanical and business part of Rossland has' simply got ahead of the mines. The mines will 6oon catch up, then fir another boom. i The cars contain machlnory for new mine every day. Spokane furnishes1 some, but the cast gets the plumb.

In the mandamus suits against! Secretary Klncaid the attorneys for the petitioners will it Is said endeavor to have the supreme court advance them on the calendar for argument. This movement the attorneys for the secretary will resist as there is nn octai sion for taking their cases up for ar gument out of their regular older. They claim there is no private or pub lic exigency to entitle their cises to the right of way. While they admit that it is a great wrong to keep tied up in tlio treasury half a million of dollars of the people's money for the next two years, yet they say no judg ment of the supreme court could un lock the vaults of the treasury. That can only be done by the legislature and they can only be commenced for that purpose by the governor, lie is the officer who might if he would send tho creditors of the state to the treasurer for their money, instead of to the bankers. The appeal for re lief should be made to the executive and not to the judiciary. That is the position, we understand, of the secre tary and his attorneys.
