ALASKA QUARTZ MiNEsl

Mr. II. p. Hall, an expert. sent by O
San Francisco company to examine the
mines near Sitka. returned on the Cali

weeks sojourn in Alaska hS saw more
gold bearing surface quartz than he
ever before witnessed in any locality.
and his experience has been large. II
he had such lead in Nevada county as
the Stuart lead in Alaska, he could sell
it for nearly 81. 500, 900, whereas the
present owners could not sell it for
moro than $4,000. He is enraptured
with tho country from miners stand
point, and thinks it is immense. Quartz
that yields no more than s. or $40 pei
ton can DO milled at profit. in conse.
quencs OF the abundance and cheap
ness Of fuel and the low price of freight
from San Francisco to Sitka.
So We read in the Portland Standard.
1t appears TO US that, il the Alaska
mines turn out as anticipated, and q
now seems probable. it will be bigge,
thing for Seattle than for any other
part Of the coast. This is the nearest

sEaTTLEs PROSPECTS.

The outlook now is Of the most en-
couraging character. More improve
men. is in progress at this moment than
than ever before, and even greater i'm.
provemcnts are in view than ere in
hand. The extension OF the Stetson &
Post mill and factory. the enlargement
Of the Starr Touring mill, the new Ss-
attic saw mill, the barrel and box fac
tory, the projected Card & Lair and
Case mills. the increased operations in
the way Of steamboat building. the
steady increase of coal shipments, &c.
all tend to confirm the statement made
in the opening sentence Of this article.
The industries above enumerated. as well
as the marble works, iron works. the
furniture makers, machine shops, and
a score of other establishments engaged
moro or less in the business of manu-
featuring. involve the expenditure OF
in the aggregate very large amount
Of money, the employment Of great
many men, and the bringing to Seattle
from abroad Of an enormous trade. The
fact is, the manufacturing business Of
Western Washington is visibly center.
ing in Seattle, and the day is very few
years distant wlon Seattle will be in
cluded among the great manufactur-
ing cities OF the American continent
All signs point to this. But we haven't
manufactures alone to rely upon. We
have a railroad Of orr own building,
the early extension of which is among
the certainties Of the near future. We
have agricultural resources second only
t. those Of Walla Walla. our direct
exports the present year amounting
to fully ten thousand tons. We have q
steamboat commerce exceeding that OF
any place in Oregon or Washington,
except Portland. We have wholesale
and retail stores Of which any town of
five thousand people might we'll be
proud. as also residences, churches.
streets. sidewalks, intelligent and en-
tcrprising citizens, &c, SC. We are
not at all ashamed Of our town, aud do
not intend hiding our light under a
bushel. We invite inspection and COM
parison. and if Seattle in any respect
will not stand tho test we'll do our level
best to remedy the deficiency. A fairer,
more prosperous and more rapidly
growing town cannot today be found
on the Pacific slope.
