RICH LEAD CAMPS
ARE BEING FOUND
John A. Czizek Says British
Columbia Will Solve Lead
Scarcity Problem.
NEW SECTION TAPPED
BY RAILROAD SYSTEM
American Capital Hurrying In
to Secure Valuable Coal
and Lead Land.

Complaint has been made by the con
sumner of lead that there arc no new
big lead camps being discovered, and
tins may be true as far as the United
States is concerned But up in British
Columbia is new empire being opened
by the investor and prospector, md
within this new area are lead posslbili-
ties that promise to open the eyes Of
the world. That this new section IS
splendid mining region, and that
great numbers of prospcctors and IN
Nestors are hooking in TO secure share
of the available good things, was
vouched for on Wednesday to the
Tribune by John A. Czizek. one of the
we'll known mining men Of the west.
Mr.. Czlzek is enroute TO New York
from the northwest, and he is very
enthusiastic regarding this budding sec
tion.
Two hundred miles from the coast ia
British Columbia, and in the Bablne
range of mountains, is a vast cxpanse
of country now being opened by the
extensions of the Grand Trunk Pacific
railroad. The region is $50 miles north
or Seattle, and new city that is bound
to play an important part i'll the ex-
ploitation of this section is Prince Ru-
to the world Mr.. Czizek states that
this town has ono OF the finest har
boTS on the Pacific coast and that 1T
Will present port two davs closer to
the Orient than any other port on the
Pacific.
Between the Canadian Pacific and
the new Grand Trunk railroads as they
dlverge at Edmonton is n zone about
400 miles IN width which holds this
new land of promise. Not onlv have
lead deposits been found but there eX-
lists enormous deposits of coal, and Just
recently New York capitalists have
secured 125.000 acres Of valuable coal
lands. Americans are very successful
in their attempt to corral much of the
attractive propositions of this region,
and Mr.. Czizck says that a great
amount of United States wealth will en-
ter here and will be rewarded gcner
ously. SO in the near future, instead
of bewailing the fact that we have no
new lead camps, British Columbia Will
call MS up and tell us TO come 20 the
Babine range and help ourselves.

COAL MINING IN IDAHO, 1908.


The annual statistical report of the
United States Geological Survey Oh
coal mining in 1908 shows that the
total production of coal in Idaho in
1908 was 5,429 short tons, having a
spot value of $21,832.
There are several somewhat re-
stricted and widely separated areas
in Idaho in which beds of sub-bitunI-
nous coal and Ignite occur, and the
coal mining industry has been con-
fined to comparatively small opera
tions for local consumption. The out
put in 1908 was 1919 short tons, OF
1858 per cent. Most of the mining
in 1908, as in the three preceding
years, was done in the Salmon district
in Lemhi county, although small op
erations were CARRIED on in Bingham
and Fremont counties.

IN IDAHO.
(By J. H. Peacock. !

The shades of night were falling fast
AS through a western village passed,
A lad who claimed that he would show
Most any one that he could go
To Idaho.
Beneath one arm he had some bread
A ragged cap was on his head,
And in his belt he wore a gun
Because he thought he might see fun
In Idaho.
He trudged along thro' mud and rain,
Was fired from many moving train,
But still he had the nerve to say:
They'll see me out there YET, some
day.
In Idaho.
At last he reached his long-sought
land
Without much cash, but lots of sand,
He struck job of herding sheep
For forty dollars and his keep
In Idaho.
He toiled along and saved his chink,
Nor blew a cent at cards or drink,
And in his dreams he saw the day
When wealth and fame would roll his
way
In Idaho.
One day he had to buy some buds
Some groceries and a sack of spuds;
He saw maiden fair and sweet,
Come strolling idly up the street
In Idaho.
Her golden hair and cheeks of pink
All the louder lad could think,
She looked at him and threw smile,
; While he stood gawking all the W lille
In Idaho.
And then the way she worked that
lad,
Was really most awful bad,
She pulled his leg for all he'd hid,
/ And left sadder, wiser kid
t In Idaho.
: While he stood woefully, staring
Y there,
2 The very picture of despair,
e There came to him a voice so cool,
go herd more sheep, you measley
fool"-
