A MINING EXHIBIT.
Being Collected in Spokane For
Fruit Fair.

Superintendent w. A. Coplen, al
the head of the mining department
OF the Spokane Interstate fair, Oct
ober 3to 8, Will be in the northern
country this week visiting various
camps, soliciting ores from al the
leading mines which did not exhibit
at the fair last year. The fair man
agAment has done wisely in refusing
to allow the exhibits In this depart
ment to be scattered. 1t is all very
well to send mining exhibits to ST.
Louis and for permanent exhibits In
In other eastern cities, but the ore
specimens sent TO Spokane are not
sent to be scattered all over the
country. Mine owners prefer them
retained in Spokane, where they can
be added to from year to year, thus
building up what in time ought to be
the best mining exhibits 10 the north
west. The management OF the Spo-
kane fair. 1t is understood, has re-
aimed every pound of ore which was
on exhibition at the fair last year and
will use it as a nucleus for the min
ing department exhibits at the fair
this year, and in future year. Mr..
Coplen, therefore, is in a position to
do better work this year for the fair
than ever before, and for the mining
resources of the Pacific northwest.
