VERY WONDERFUL
IS THE TRANSFORMATION

Nineteen years ago I passed
through most of the country we saw
on. this trip and the most impressive
fact to me is the great advancement
of the country west of the MISSISSIPPI
pi river in that time. Ha1nlets
have become towns with all the cou-
yeniences of rapid transportation.
electric lighting, water service and
improved livingi Towns having ne
come thriving cities and the cities
have grown beyond recognition
Seattle for instance, in that period
having increased in mere population
over twenty fold or to more than
10000 people, and in all the at
tributes of industry and commerce
in much greater proportion. Ana
vet there remains a vast empire west
Of the Mississippi river capable OF
sustaining easily ten times the pres
ent population.
EEThe Lewis and Clark Exposition
in the beautiful city of Portland
Ore. with its great array of grains.
fruits. vegetables, timbers, minerals
and mechanical devices, is most
impressive reminder of what has
been accomplished in this great
country within the memory OF
thousands who have seen the expo
sition. and, if Jefferson's great pio-
neers. Lewis and Clark, could open
their ewes in Portland in 1905. they
would behold as the result of on"
centurv's growth a transformation
never equalled before on earth in a
thousand years"

FINE MINING PROPERTY

w. Burns MeGregor, the furni-
ture dealer, speaks in an en-
thusiastic manner of the trip ard
saws language does not begin to de-
scribe it. In addition he says more
particularly of the mills and mine:
Upon our arrival at EncamP-
mcnt we found a thrifty town OF

ally supported by the Penn-Wyom-
ing Company, and what appeared to

levels by means of gravity.

we started again and in a distance

themselves of the opportunit: to

THE OPPORTUNITIES
ARE SIMPLY GREAT

Attorney Harvey F. Smith, in
talking to Telegram representative
not only confirmed Mr.. Boughner's
interesting description of the trip.
but also spoke instructiyely of the
property of the Penn=Wyoming Cop
per Company, as follows:
Being present during your in
terview with Mr.. Boughner there is
little left for me to say. / nlay
add, however, that while I had no
previous knowledge of copper mir
ing I was very much impressed.
while visiting this mine and going
through the main headings and tim
nels. with the regularity and uni
form richness of the deposit of cop
per ore. There is a great quantity
of ore already exposed by the main
tunnels and cross-cuts- The man
agement of the business as explain
ed and presented to us Is Tnoaetn
and practical, holding each superln-
tendent responsible for his own Do
partment, expecting him to take
careful invoices and from time to-
time to show conservative and IN
creased profits to the board OF d1--
rectors. The superintendent and;I
their assistants, both at Eucamp-
ment and at the mine impressed me
as being men of integrity, impair
tial and competent. The district
around this mine seems to be good
one. as number of prospects are
being worked and have already had
money expended on
them and as we are informed, sever
al of them have already made favor
able showings.
eve were informed by President
Cobb that a satisfactory traffic agree
ment has already been signed with
the railroad company referred TO and
under this agreement. when the coke
used in the smelter and the outgoing
blister copper can be freigh;ed oyer
this new road, l am of the opinion
hat the net profits to the company
will be twice what they are at the
present time"

MINE AND MILLS
ARE BIG PAYERS

Relative to the copper company
plant and mine, Mr.. Sinsel, the gen
ial proprietor of the Traders hotel
has this to say:
en- giving You my opinion of the
property of the Penn-Wyoming Coz,
per Company, permit me to say that
I consider it perfect in every detail
I found ii to be much more than was
represented to me. I made a tho
ough and complete investigation
beginning at the mill, smelter, cleo
trio light plant, blacksmith shop,
foundry, pipe line, and tramway'
which are located at Encampment
and then we made thorough exam
ination of the mine, spending sew
eral hours going through the great
ore body. We found an immense
body of ore and the means Of taking
care of the ore were of the veFy,bigh.
est order.
eve met several gentlemen Who
have the management of this prop,
erty, and they seemed to be men {
The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1905-10-14

the highest integrity and conserva-
tism. Our impression of the prop
erty was such that we can certainly
recommend it to anybody as good
investment. We found the greatest
necessity to be the railroad as the
ore was being transported So miles
to Wolcott by means of horses and
wagons. But while we were there
we learned for a certainty that )
new railroad viii be built immed-
lately and the trains Will be running
into Woleott by April the first. This
viii add greatly to the value of the
property"
