Iva work entitled Three years in Cana
da," written by McTaggart, it is stated that
in 1925, or 1896, both silver and gold silver
were discovered in the Rocky Mountains In
the year 1926, says the Toronto Leader. Nc
Taggart met at La Prairie a respectable
young man, who had just returned from a
distant excursion in the fur trade, from whom
he received an account of his journey, and
embodied it in the shape Of a letter for the
information ola friend. In that letter we
read as follows:
after considerable travel and fatigue we
came upon the Rocky Mountains, alias the
backbone of America and here as you may
expect, all my meteorological science was
brought into full request. My bag is full o.
the rarest specimens, and what will astonish
the sons OF Mammon, have both gold and
silver ores. In fact, l consider these noun
tains to be much more valuable than the In
dies"
The letter does not state in what part OF
the Rocky Mountains these specimens were
found. The Toronto Leader remarks. how
ever that as the fur trade came by way of
Lake Winnepeg, there can be no doubt that
1t was in the British territory. The great
fork OF Fraser river, on which the gold is
now being collected, trayersed the Rocky
Mountains, in the centre of which is Moose
