Either has just about as much value
as an unknown diamond quarry on .

must have not only value and uni
formity Of character. and quantity. but
It must be practicable from the stand
point both OF the miner and miller.
The state OF Washington has mines
that fulfill these recognized require
ments. The character Of many OF them
has been fully demonstrated by profit
able returns: Others are Of unquestion-
ed value. but have for various reasons
been neglected. 1t Is q cause Of COM
plant among owners and promoters OF
Warrington properties that too much
attention has been given to Alaska and
too little TO our local resources. The
grievance 10 only partly justified. Too
much effort has not been devoted to
Alaska, but too little has been devoted
to Washington. especially the western
part Of the state. The explanation of
this apparent inequality In exploitation
and development lies solely In the ia
miliar fact that placer IL the indi-
viduars bonanza and yields prompt re-
turns: quartz takes time and money.
The real development Of our mines
has now been undertaken in earnest
We are finding out with approximate
certainty 1ust what we have. and We
are succeeding in informing and inter-
esting the necessary capital and scien-
tific knowledge to open them up. Large
capital has gone into Index. Monte

other districts tributary to Puget sound.
The success and permanent growth OF
the precious mineral industry depends
In great measure upon these pioneer
