Fluctuations in the Production Of the Pre-
eiOus Metals.

ciOus Metals.
The recordg of the worlds produc-
ton of the precious metals show that
it has not been uniform from year to
year, nor from decade to decade, nor
for any periods put In comparison. On
the contrary, the output of the mines
has been very irregular; some years
and some periods less, and some more
in the aggregate; at one time gold lead
ing, at another time silver leading; and
this applies not only to the quantity Of
product but to It's value as well. Yet
the commercial ratio of value between
the metals varied but slightly from
time to time during 500 years prior to
1876.
The United States Mint Report for
1894 shows that from 1893 to 1893 the
total production of the precious metals

white Grouse Mountain.

The White Grouse mountain. which has
SO rapidly come TO the front during the
past few weeks. Is still attracting atten-
ton. Good reports came from the dis
1rfct more than year ago, and samples
Of ore sent out at that time were very
rich and were fayorably commented on
by mining men. The value of the district
was not exp.ofted until this spring and
since then large number of proSpectors
have gone into the country. Samoa, the
new town on kootenay fake. is twelve or
fourteen miles from Pilot bay, and is the
point where the miners leave the lake for
White Grouse, a distance of about eigh-
teen miles. There Is daily boat from
Pilot bay to Samoa.
There is another district in the Koote-
nay which is highly spoken OF says the
Spokesman-Review. 1t lies near the head
waters Of Crawford creek. thirteen to fif-
teen miles from Pilot bay. Several hum
bred pounds of this ore was sent TO Plot
bay last year. the returns from which
which were 10 ounces of silver and 20
per cent. lead.
