MONGOLIANs IN THE MILLS.

Vancouver. B.. @. May 3, 1895.
To the Editor: The Vancouver World
recently commenting on the arrival OF
several ships to load humber on Bur
rard inlet, drew a distinction between
the prosperity Of the British Columbia
and Puget sound lumber industries, and
contemptuously spoke of the Puget
sound mills as run by cheap coolie labor.
Being an American, I certainly object
TO the attempt 10 mislead outsiders with
out exposing the facts. In regard to the
mills in British Columbia, fully 90 per
cent. of the labor employed is Monaghan.
Japs are working in the mills for SIS per
month and board themselves. There are
hundreds OF men out of employment in
Victoria and Vancouver. Relief work
has to be given 10 white men, while ths
Japs and Cinnamon absorb-in coniunc-
ton with an attenuated Anglomaniac
opera bouffe aristocracy- the resources
of the fisheries, forests and mines.

NOTED WOMEN MINERS.
They Tell of the Bonanza They Have
Found in the Noted Pine
R1ancO.

Mrs. A. K. Rikert and her daughter,
Miss Townsend, who are large owners in
the rich Pine Blanco gold mine and in a
dozen adjoining properties, are at the
Grand.
The Pine Blanco is said to have de-
veloped wonderfully during the past year,
until now an enormous ledge of quartz has
been shown. The mine is two miles west
of the Rawhide mine, Tuolumne County,
three miles from the Carson Hill, owned
by the Fair estate, and about seven miles
from the Utica. Stories in circulation
lately have credited it with being another
Utica
II think it will prove to be better mine
even than the Utica" she said. at is on
the western wall OF the mother lode.
When we bought it two years ago it was
all overgrown with chemisal, and nobody
could then tell what it was. The groupings
have since shown to be 100 feet wide and
410 feet long.
"There is a big chamber with rich quartz
shown all around and crosscut of thirty
feet, all through ore, and we have not vet
reached the wall. The lowest mill run we
ever had on any of the ore was $6 ton,
and the rich ore runs up SO high that we
have no cause for anything but the great
est laltn that the mine is very Dig
bonanza.
"Dr. J. l.. Ross, president of the Redwood
City Bank, and P. P. Chamberlain, Treas
urer of San Mateo County, are owners with
US in the Pine Blanco."
Mrs. Rikert says she has had twelve
years. experience in mining, ten of the
twelve being spent at Calico, on the desert.
Her daughter, who is a part owner with
her, is also sure that the Pine Blanco is
worth million or more dollars. ~
haven't had twelve years experience in
mining not to know bonanza when l see
it, said Mrs. Rikert. The ladies are here
on business in connection with the mine.
