CONRAD ID BOOM

As predicted in the Whitehorse Star at the time of the closing down of the Venus mine on Windy Arm three weeks ago, the suspension will be only temporary and when operations are re- sumed 1t will be on a scale commensu- rate with the known value of the prop erty.
 The volume of the purchase price Of the Venus is due and payable on Nc vember Ist and we have it on undisput- ed authority thut not only is the money ready, but enough has been aDpropri- a.ed for the purpose of erecting con- cenrrator by which means the output of the mines will be handled at hone and without the expense of shipping to the outside.
 About half dozen of the acknow. ledged richest silver mines in the dis trlct, if not on the continent, are em. braced in the Venus group all of which are being acquired by the payment of the money on the first of the month.
 The vast ore bodies have proven so rich that to furCher dub along by ship ping ore upward of 1000 miles is not considered good policy by the owners, to say nothing of the mighty saving that will result from treating 1t on the property.
 The machinery for a concentra.or will be hauled over the ice from Car cross to the site this winter and the work of construction will be. in about the first of April.
 Conrad may be somewhat dull this winter but those who stay with the town and hold on to their properly there will be reaping handsome re- wards before another year snail have rolled away,
