AS stated in the Tribune of the 14th
inst, Mr.. G. I. Lang was an east bound
passenger enroute to Sc. Paul from the
Kootenai country in British Columbia,
north of Tpokane Falls. This is the new
mining region from which such rich finds
have been reported of late. Mr.. Lang, in
speaking of that region says:
"That the country is rich in mineral is
beyond question, but it is practically un-'
developed as yet. Not more than one-half
dozen at the mines are really getting out
any ore for shipment at present on ac-
|, count OF the lack of facilities for getting
the ore to a point of shipment. The
weather has been so very backward that
much in the line of prospecting has not
been done this spring. The snow on the
mountains being now several hundred feet
below the regular snow line, and in the
Duncan River country the gulches are still
full Of snow, making prospecting difficult,
and in some cases impossible. Hundreds
Of locations have already been made and
new discoveries are reported every day.
The greater pert of the locations are in
the Slocum district, which lies between
lakes Kootenai and Arrow. Attention is
now being drawn to the country lying
north of Kootenai lake and known as tho
Doncan River district, and in which the
richest ore is found.
.sMr. Geer of Portland, with whom my
self and brother are interested has made
four locations on Doncan river, the ore
from which assays frem 304, as the lowest
to 428 ounces of silver and giving So per
cent of lead which is regarded as quite
high grade. The mines are now reached
only by pack horses, and it will be a ques-
tion of some time before railroads or other
shipping satellites are provided. AS the
rates over the pack trails are from 2 to 10
cents per pound, the shipping Of low grade
ore oyer them is out OF question. The
lack Of capital is the principal drawback
4 tn the development Of what will eventually
be very rich country"
