Ellensburgh Local,zer: The mountains
in the regions of the Swauk and Peshas- |
tin are full of prospectors. important |
discoveries haye been made during the |
last two years, and more and better 1t is
will be found this season. The
Swauk and Pcshastin placers were
thought to have been worked out years

years and still have prospects ahead
They show their interest in the Swauk by |
remaining there to prosecute their work,
further. New discoveries of quartz are
being made yearly. all of which give
these mines renewed interest.

Localizer: There is steady demand for
Washington wool in the eastern states.
How much better it would be for the
country if the wool could be manufac-
ured here, instead of shipping it east and
when manufactured shipping west such
hings as blankets, fannels and coarse
cloths. The eastern people recognize the
aei that the wool of this state IS staple
article and are glad to purchase it, but it
s great waste of money to continue
'uch policy. Establish woolen mills, at
lOme, we say.
