not where mere temporary attractions

taken deep root in tho public heart, and
the cugcrnesS to acquire mineral land is
apparent everywhere. In the present

A GOLDEN OPINION.
John NJ. Burke arrived on Thursday
and il a present in Wardncr. During
the spring and early summer he trav-
cled over 1000 miles. visiting all the minS'
ing points of prominence in the West.
He declares he saw nothing that can
favOrahly compare with CGur d' 'Alcne,;
which in his opinion stands alone as u
mineral producing country. There Is no
man in the West WHO has had a mora
thorough experience in mining matters
than Mr., Burke; lac has spent both his
time and money in exploring and devcl-
oping mines, and his knowledge of such
matters has been bought and paid for.
After careful and minute examination
ot the vast extent or country travelled
over he pronounces in favor of Coeur
d Alene and says as a mining region it
has no equal on earth.
