EASTERN CAPITAL INTERESTED.
John Mckinley, who has been
in tho east for several months,
has returned. He says he looks
for Duluth to feel the return of
prosperity, when it comes,
quicke" than any other Western
city. He found a great deal of
talk concerning Duluth in the
East. The fact that so many
Eastern capitalists have aquired
interests in and around Duluth
has caused others to look this
way. The Lake Superior coun-
try generally is being closely
watched. The extent of the iron
deposits is pretty generally un-
derstood, and the value of the
lumber interests is also appreci-
ated. Then on the south shore
the copper mines awakened a
new interest in that country by
reason of the recent heavy rise
in copper mining stocks. The
interests of the Rockefellers,
Carnegie and other wealthy men
IN this section have become so
we'll known that it has advertised
this section greatly, and turned
other eyes this way.
Mr.. Mckinley does not look
for any sudden return of pros
perity. He thinks it will be a
gradual process, but is confident
that the worst of the depression
has been seen.-Herald.
