town, were very much hindered by
the desire cf the settlers to pros
pect for gold, instead of giving
their plantations the necessary at
tention, as urged to do by their
leaders. Indeed, in spite of Cap
tain Smiths protests, boat loads of
sand, containing shining particles
of mica, which was mistaken for
gold, was sent to England. His
tory fails to tell us what became of
those worthless cargoes.
The growth and development of
the country from 1907 to 1S4S,
when gold was discovered in Cali
fornia. is history with which every
schoolboy is familiar The latter
discovery verified the opinion of
the buccaneer, Sir Francis Drake,
who on his return (157S) from the
Pacific coast, reported that he was
convinced that there was mo part
of the country wherein there is
not some special likelihood of
gold" Immediately, upon the
news reaching the Atlantic States.
a mighty immigration commenced,
not only from the United States,
but all the free outlaws. highway
men and gamblers from the whole
world, hocked to the new Edo
RADIO. Then followed the commits
sion of terrible crimes, while gam
bling and wild speculation was
the order of the day. The histor-
ical Vigilance committee was then
formed, which soon rid the coun-
try of, or silenced, the lawless ele-
ment. The fabulous wealth ac-
quired in a short time, by the more
fortunate, was an incentive that
produced hundreds of Gold Hunt
ers, or Prospectors, as they have
been termed ever since. AS the
excitement gradually subsidized, at
tention was turned to the Rocky
Mountain region; and from that
time the Prospector has been the
factor of the development of u
great country.
What a contrast there is be-
tween the armor clad Gold Hunter
of the fifteenth century, and the
quiet practical Prospector of today.
The former seeking only gold that
could be acquired by force of arms;
and with an army of daring follow
ere, flourish of trumpets and clash
of steel, he stalked through the
forests, a terror, alike to the ma
tives, and settlers from other coun-
tries than his own. The latter,
with his pack animals, armed only
with pick and shovel-a peaceful
conquest against the forces of ma
ture-plods his weary way across
the treeless prain, and over the
snow-capped mountains, in search
of the yellow metal, the possession
of which has been the ambition of
men in all ages and climes. 1t is
to the Prospector that we owe the
discovery of great veins of mineral
which has brought many millions
of dollars into circulation, during
the last decades of the closing CEN
tury; while around him clusters
song and story of the wild and ro-
mantle life he leads. We know of
no fascination to be compared with
that of prospecting, unless 1T be
that of gambling. Lured on by a.
never-dying hope. that he may
some day strike it rich," he
spends years of his life amid wild
and rugged scenes, only to spend the
fortune acquired in further search
for another, and, as is frequently
the case, to die a poor man.
