THE COLVILLE COUNTRY.
Mining Matters and Miscellaneous
Melange.



From Our Regular CorresPohdent.l
Various rumOrs have been rife, In
the past few days regarding the
steam er KOOtenai. The truth Of the
matter is: 1t was displaced from its
dangerous position and arrived ut the
Little Dalles on Thursday morning,
October lst. The breaches In the
bottom were easily repaired and 1t is
expected that she will start on the
up trip tomorrow, loaded principal
ly with potatoes, onions and other
vegetables and necessaries Of life
that the people Of Fdrwell are great
ly 10 need of. The explosives with
which the steamer was loaded when
when she was stranded were taken
of at the Little Dalles and stored,
word having been sent, we are in
formed, that the powder having
been delayed 50 long would not be
needed until spring. The steamer
was laid up nearly four weeks. She
will make at least two more trips
yet this fall and more II necessary.
The disablement OF the boat, even
for a short period, was keenly felt
by the residents of this valley, who
have a market for their surplus farm
and garden produce while she is
running.
The weather in this valley cOntin-
ues very pleasant. The grass has
started up afresh, making the land
scape more beautiful than ever to
look upon and the almost unlimited
range for stock frst-clnsS. An old
settler informs us that the indica-
tions point to an open, mild winter,
and he predicts winter similar to
that Of 1864, when the only snow
that fell was few inches in Decem-
Der, which soon melted and left the
valley covered with sheet Of ice.
The grass continued to grow and the
stock ranged the hills all winter and
kept fat. So far, this fall there has
been no frost in most parts of the
valley.
Interest in mining matters contin-
ues undated amongst the residents
and visitors. The Old Dominion
mine, with twelve men employed,
continues to produce immense guam
titles Of rich ores, ana at a depth Of
thirty-five feet the vein shows no
sign Of petering out, but on the con-
trary Is looking stronger and more
permanent. At Gold Hill the mines
show fiattering prospects and assay
tests prove that the ore is rich in
gold, with some silver. A pannine
test this week from the ore Of Co.
baugh 4 Boyd's claim showed q
presence Of at least $1,000 in gold tC
the ton. Work on the stamp mil
progresses. The timbers are going
up and the machinery is expected
every hour.
The KluxtOn creek mines are the
latest discoveries and bid fair to full
ly equal or excel anything yet dis
covered in this region. The contact
is between slate and crys;alllzed
limestone, and has been traced fol
miles. The ores are generally low
grade but exist in large quantities.
These mines are about sixteen miles
from Colville, in north-easterly di-
rectiOn.
AL Benoist is showing a party oI
capitalists around the country. They
are favorably impressed with its
grand mining and agricultural re.
sources. S. l.. A.

Arrived.

The ten stamp mill to be used on
the gold bearing quartz, recently
discovered some miles from Colville,
and for which Al. Benoist and Prof.
Reilly made II trip to San Francisco,
arrived In this city on Monday and IA
force Of men were put to work load
ing It on wagons TO be Immediately
conveyed to Its destination. The
machine Is Of ponderous dimensions
and includes an engine and boiler for
operating purposes. This is the first
mill that goes into the new gold field
and 1t is sincerely TO be hoped that
its operation will prove that the pur-
chase was wise one. All the nec-
essary work for setting the mill up
has been completed and 1t will not
be long until the huge stamps are at
work pulverizing ore. This in an.
other sign Of the prosperity of the
camp.

the past few days and the scene OF
busy activity about tbs Echo mill, C..
and C. mill, Posts mill, n. p. eleva-
tor, Loewenberg's warehouse and
several other warehouses at which
grain is being taken, is evidence that
Spokane Falls is surely gaining q
leading prestige as grain market.
In former years, when there were
but limited number Of buyers, and
but little storage room, all the other
points along the road took prece-
dence over our city as grain marts,
but demand has been crerted here
for cereals, and the farmer not only
finds ready sale for grain at the
very highest cash market rates, but
he also has the satisfaction Of being
able to select the wares that he is
compelled to purchase from gigantic
stocks, carried by our merchants,
where he is taken completely by
surprise at the remarkably low pri-
ces. 1t Is seldom that In one season
place takes such a prominent posi-
tiOn as grain market as has SpO-
kane Falls this year. We do not as
sert that more grain is sold here than
at any other point on the line Of the
Northern Pacific road, but we are
satisfied with the present outlook,
and il the sales increase in the fol-
lowing years at the same ratio, il
will require scores Of warehouses ia
handle the grain that will be sold
here two years hence. 1t is claimed
that the marketing Of grain has just
commenced and that 1t will be sew
eral weeks before it will be at its full
height. II that is the case it Is
hard to imaging what the jam will
he when the farmers commence tC
haul to market in earnest. Yester'
day was an astOnisher in the quanti'
ty Of wheat delivered. There must
have been upwards Of two hundred
teams in during the day, which, av'
eraging a load at forty bushels
would give a grand total Of SOOC
bushels. Quite II healthy dab Oi
grain! While we have no idea that
the Falls will ever moAOpolizr the
wheat trade Of this section, there be,
ing too many points on the road
where market is presented, and II
would be impossible for one place tC
handle all the grain grown in this
immediate neighbOrhood, yet Oul
city will never suffer for the want OI
this staple production Of the soil
Besides, as the Falls grows, it pre-
sents not only popular market hui
it presents attractions that are bound
to draw the people Of the country to
ward II. Let the farmer know thai
he has market at the Falls that HI
can depend on at all times, and fur
thermore let our dealers and mer.
chants treat the visitors with that
fairness and courtesy due in the in
tercourse Of trade, and friends fol
the city are made that will continue
for all timo to come. The past few
days has settled the question as tC
this being grain shipping point
Thousands Of bushels have been re
ceived already and the promise looks
lattering for many thousands more
before the advent OF winter puts !
period to the hauling in Of gaain.
