Mr.. J. N. Gray, Chairman committee Of
Invitation Railroad Celebration, Mel
hart, Montana:
Dear Sir:-I have your kind invitation
10 be present on the 18th to participate
in the celebration by your people of the
important event of railroad connection.
AS | am engaged here in an i'm ~ortant
law suit, which will require my constant
attention, it will be impossible for me to
be present.
However, I take pleasure in cpngrat-
ulating you and the people of Ncihart
upon the event Of a railroad TO your
city.
Without railroad facilities, no base
ore mining camp car expect much de-
gree Of prosperity. I hope this will be
the beginning of a bright era in the his
tory Of your camp and that Neihart will
take its place side by side with the Other
great mining camps of Montana 10 aid
them in building up our great tNte and
to pour the wealth Of Montana into the
lap of the worlds commerce..
Yours Respectfully,

Neihart the Fortunate.

AS a mining camp Neihart has
been wonderfully favored: Her
mines are numerous and some of
them promise to be veritable bo-
nanzas. The celebration of the
completion Of the railroad to this
mining center, was an occasion
improved by many of the distin-
guished citizens of Helena and
Great Falls to visit this bright
terprising mining city of the
Little Belt mountains.
The railroad crosses veins of colo
and veins Of silver, veins Of cope,
and veins OF lead. The excursion.
ists stopped at hotels, were
welcomed in halls and made then

THIS week we devote considerable
suace to extracts about our celebra-
ton and the opinion formed in refer
ence to Neihart. Some people are
inclined to doubt anything of a boom
notice published in a home paper,
but when the best journals in the
state speak so favorable of our town
it must convince any doubters---Nei-
hart is solid and the exhibition made
at our celebration will naturally re-
suit in good to the camp. No one
has a word to say against u future
prospect, and all unite in predicting
a great future for u city. Neihart
never had any boom, nor do any OF
its residents desire one. "A good
healthy growth is more preferable,
and we trust that the day of boomers
will never come for usthey are
not natural and are always followed
by a reaction which more than coun-
terbalances any good. Keep the
booms for some other point that
has not got the right formation for a
solid town. Neihart has the "high
grade" and it will only take time to
devclope it.

Neihart'S Celebration Day.
From the Great Falls Tribune.

From the Great Falls Tribune.
The adventurous miners who
struck the first leads and staked out
the first mining claims in the locality
now known and designated as Nei-
hart little drcamt then that in a few
years the railroad the great symbol
of an advanced civilizati IN, would
penetrate the heart of the Belt
mountains and assist in building a
thriving mining camp. When J. l..
Neihart and two companions, urged
on by the untiring zeal of genuine
prospectors entered the gulch a de-
cade ago and made the first discov-
cries Of the mineral wealth of Mel
hart, they unconsciously laid the
foundation for a great mining camp.
They set at work the forces which in
time were destined to create an en-
pire within itself, a power among the
great mineral producing belts of the
west. They builded like the biblical
character upon the solid rock not as
applied to the mere foundation, but
to the possibilities of the present and
future, its productiveness, its bound
less wealth of the precious metals.
WHAT Is CELEBRATED.
The people of Neihart celebrate
today the advent of a railroad. in
their midst, the driving of the last
spike in the band of steel that binds
them forever with the world OF
wheels and commerce. They do

the road, it means a great deal for
them, It means they have grown
beyond the obscurity OF a small
struggling mining camp dependent
upon freight teams for the n%ecessi'
ties Of life and as the medium
through which to transact business
and have reached the period when
rapid transportation is a prime
necessity. 1t places Neihert on a

camps of the Rocky mountains, and

proud of in their election. 1t is

Be careful in your selection, that the
men you vote for are such as will be
wise in their acts and frugal in con-
Quoting the Affairs of the new city.

foundation of a government that will

SOME OF MANY MINES.

oShE VI Ia MI T.os
There has been so much written
of late concerning the mines of Nei-
hart that the Tribune will make nc
effort to give a detailed description
Of those well-known properties at
this time. 1t might be in order to
call the attention of the visitors to
the improvements that are being
made in some of the prominent
mines, chiefly Queen of the Hills,
the Cornucopia, the Moulton, the
Florence, the Gait, the Ingersoll,
the |. X. L., and others.
The Queen will soon be equipped
with a plant operated entirely by
electricity, an innovation in mining.
That company will also furnish cleo
tricity for lighting the town and ex-
pect to have the system in operation
by the new year.
In the Moulton a double compart-
ment shaft is being sunk to go down
a depth of 300 feet. 1t will be
finished in sixty days, when cross
cutting to the lead will commence,
That company expect to sink to the
4O0-foot level at once after the shaft
now being sunk is finished.
The Cornucopia is working a large
force of men and has already dis
played the evidences OF a great
property.
The Gait, l. X. L., Monarch, Flor.
ence, Dacotah, St. James, Neihart
Cumberland and a host of Other
properties, including the Broadwatel
and the Benton groups, have alread,
been fully described in these col.
umns and space does not permit {
repetition.
1t is no exaggeration to place
Neihart on a plane with the leading
mining cities of the Rocky noun
tains. 1t has mines ranking with tn,
richest in this state in mincra
wealth, and by the middle of mex
year will be shipping thousands O
tons of ore daily AMI considerabl
bullion.
MATERIAL IMPROVEMENTS.
The visitor to Neihart today can
not fail to be impressed with til
great amount of building done ther
the past six months. 1t is a cues
ton whether any town in Montan;
Of twice the population can boast O
such a record for one year. a care
full estimate furnished by a gentle
man in a position to know whereo
he speaks places the amount of lum
Der used for building purposes thi
year at II million feet. He ais
estimates that over one hundre
thousand dollars were expended i
building, and it is expected tn;
amount will be SURPASSED anoth,
year. Now that Ncihart has b.
t come an incorporated city it is b'
1 reasonable to suppose his expect'
. tons for the ensuing year are nor
| too sanguinc. The class of bulk
; ings erected would do justice to d
old an established city and spea
volumes for the faith of the loo
and outside capitalists in the futu,
c of Neihart.
There are scores of private res
n dences sumptuously furnished tn
i are a great credit to the city, and,
G a rule, are owned and occupied
G those who helped to make Neiha
what it is today. The men wi
braved adversely in a thousa,
1t shapes, faced the storms of Il
d mountains, battled against hnanci
l. difficulties, defied the various Weiss
tudes of a prospector's life, a,
eventually came out victorious.
The Neihart herald. [volume] (Neihart, Mont.) 1890-1901, 1891-11-27

they derive from railroad commune
cation. 1t had become a necessity
owing to the rapid growth Of the
camp and the accompanying speedy
development of the adjacent mines.
The Great Northern railway has
spared neither time nor money to
complete the Neihart branch. AL
ready the wisdom of the company in
building this line is demonstrated
and no great amount Of foresight is
requisite to figure the amount Of
good both the town and the railroad
will derive from its construction.
4 SOLID GROWTH.
Neilnart has enjoyed anything but
the mushroom growth, the sudden
springing up so common with min
ing camps. Its growth has been
gradual, containing little of the
modern boom. OF course during
the last eight months since it became
a settled fact that the road would be
built into the camp there has been
considerable activity in real estate
and a great amount of building.
But it has been a steady, healthy
growth, characteristic Of town
possessing natural resources and of
"a class Of people who have I'M
bounded faith in the development of
the same. Profiting by the history
of the rapid rise in Butte property
many of the far-seeing business men
of Neihart and of this city have
realized handsomely on investments
made in town property in the camp.
The price of real estate in Neihart
today is not considered by competent
judges to be by any means exorbi-
tant when consideration is made for
the great wealth of mineral contained
in fine leads developed and unde-
veloped. Another year bids fair t.
eclipse the record of 81 for building
and mining development.
