Railway Co. entered the district thus solving the trans
portation problem.
1t is doubtful if there is another mining camp in the
world where the early stages of mining cost so little as
in the Coeur Aene district. There is enough stand
ing timber in and adjacent to the district to supply the
mines for fifty years. Red fir grows in abundance and
as it combines great strength with good lasting quail
ties, it is the principal timber used for underground
purposes.
There numerous streams which provide water
for milling purposes and from which is generated elec
trcal power for operating the mines and mills. The
Washington Water Power Company of Spokane, also
has electrical transmission lines running into the dis
trct and furnishes about 5000 horse power of
$50 horse per annum being less than half the
estimated cost of steam power.
In addition to the ample timber supply and cheap
power, the mountains high and steep and permit of
