the interesting. This paper commenced
over 81 years ago, and this Is the first

the delinquent tax list. For the 25 years
past the Pioneer has had them. II we do
say II ourselves, the 81 years struggle Of

perseverance and lots Of grit generally
bring success. Our cotcmporary, who

principal manufactures and exports

The year 1901 is notable for the fact
that two very important industries were
commenced, which, with the paper pulp
factory, mark the new era In the business
history Of Alpena. These new industries
are the Alpena Spool Works and the Ex-
tract factory. The former has seven ma

Montana's Precious Stones.

1t Is given out at headquarters In He
lena, says an exchange, that the property
Of the Montana Sapphire and Ruby CON-
pany has been sold to an English syndi-
cate. The price is not known. Public
rumor places it at $2,0O0,0OO. The stock
Of the company was placed In London
some time ago and readily taken. The
stockholders then came together and de-
cided to purchase all property rights and
interests OF the company.
The sapphire and ruby fields are on
both sides OF the Missouri river, from
twelve to fourteen miles northeast of He
lena. In 1889 the story was started that
sapphires had been found in the old plac-
or tailings in that locality, and some Of
the citizens Of Helena made few loca-
lions Of ground. No excitement was
manifest and no development work was
done. A rich man, Spratt, from Michi-
gan, quietly secured several thousand
acres Of the ground where the precious
stones were said to repose. His example
was followed by others until every acre
was said to have been bought up. What
over stones have been taken out were
washed out with gold pan. The stones
are found In "wash gravel" The drift
or gravel is found In deposits called bars,
the same evidently having been formed
by glacial action. These bars are from a
few acres to hundreds Of acres in extent,
and for the most part found on high
points and plateaus OF the foothills bor-
dering either bank Of the river. The size
OF the stones varies from minute chip
to perfect stones Of eighteen karats. A
Helena banker has an emerald, found in
the placer tailings, which is said to weigh
In the rough, sixteen and one-half karats
