HAwLEY GIVES WRONG OPINION

Careful investigation reveals the
fact that there is no justification what
ever for the charge made by Mr..
Bawley, the Democratic candidate for
governor, that the administration OF
the state land board has been such as
to render it impossible to now Sc
cure capital to carry on legitimate
Carey act projects, has brought to
standsLLl immigration to this state,
has lrSsened our reputation and
standing in the country at large, and
that mis- reckless assertions are cal
culated to do the state vast injury.
In an interview with Mr.. c A.
Stanton, a capitalist of Honolulu, who
IS interested in Idaho irrigation bonds
To the extent Of hundreds thousands
dollars, and who has expressed to pro-
motors of the Lost river project a
willingness to finance it, says:

sentative investors and as rule they

say that if YOU do not keep politics

that you viii not oe provided with our

MICA IN BLACK HILLS
OF SOUTH DAKOTA
(The Mining World, Chicago.)


After two score years of quiesc-
ence the mica industry of the Black
Hills was revived four years ago,
when the Westinghouse Electric &
Manufacturing company took over,
under purchase, the New York, White
Spar and other properties in the vi
cinity of Custer.
Perhaps in this case revived" is
not the proper word, but to be more
accurate the term established"
should be used, for prior to 1906
the mining of mica was conducted in
desultory, haphazard manner, and
was not considered profitable.
Through a shortage of supply, the
Westinghouse company was forced to
seek mica on it's own responsibility,
and since purchasing the properties
mentioned, has gradually and con-
sistently brought up the production
and carried forward the develop
ment work, until its mines alone are
sufficient producers to place South
Dakota in the first rank.
In 1879 the Crown (known then
as the McMackin) mine, was exploit
ed as a mica prospect, and for five
years was worked to some purpose.
During that time the production
amounted to $4,000 lbs. of cut mica,
worth an average of SO a pound. The
New York, Lost Bonanza and Gil
max were opened a little later, pro-
ducing in four years a total OF $780,
900 worth of cut mica. Other mines
were producers to nearly as great
extent. This work, all done previous
to the advent of railroads, at q time
when it was necessary to haul the
mica by wagon 800 and more miles
to railroad, resulted in some profit
to the operators.
With the output of 1884 most of
the mines practically ceased work
ing, the work during subsequent
years until 1899 consisting Of scarce
ly more than such development
work as is necessary to hold claims.
During 1900 scrap mica was ship

FAMOUS GOLD RUSHES.

Stewart went mad. Walters
dropped their trays, workmen their
tools, drivers their reins and STAN
peded."
Thus a daily paper, in its descrip-
ton of the excitement created In
Stewart, B. G. when the report came
that II miles distant, at place call
ed Bitter Creek great discovery of
gold had been made. 1t is the old,
old story of human avarice and greed
Reason disappears when the gold few
er seizes on man.
Two years ago three mining pros
pectors tried their luck in the Neva-
da hills, 200 miles northeast OF San
Francisco, where they discovered a
large deposit of gold. They told
some acquaintance at the nearest
town whereupon 800 railroad labor
ers dropped their tools and began
the mad rush for gold. The news
SpTedu llhe "lluhiS anu III % ~"
weeks the camp of the three pros
pectors which had been named Raw
hide had population of 10000 per-
sons and miners were arriving at the
rate of 200 a day. Lots were sold
at anything from $1,000 to $4,000
while some mining magnates pur-
chased one claim, which had been
staked out va syndicate of 20 min
ers and had made phenomenal
yield for 100000.
The story of Klondike is even
more amazing. The first find of gold
of any Importance was made in 1897
not by gold prospectors, but by fish
ermen-at the junction of the Klon-
dixie and Yukon rivers. Immediately
the news of the rich deposits of gold
which were to be found got abroad
there was a mad rush, not only from
all parts of America, but also from
Europe. Soon 10000 people were on
their way to the diggings, many des-
tined never to return, for some 500
miles of the toughest Alaska country
had to be traversed and the route
was literally paved with the bones
fthose who had Joined IN the mad
rush without stopping to consider
the journey presented.
Hundreds deserted their wives,
while clerks, merchants, doctors, and
lawyers sold all they possessed to
pay their way to the Klondike. But
where one impractical man succeed
ed in enriching himself, scores Of
American professional miners came
away worth hundreds of thousands.
1t is a curious fact that when MI.
Harry de Windt, the well-known ex-
plorer, returned from the Klondike
in 1897, he said, during the course
of an interview published in the
Strand Magazine that the Stewart re-
gion was richer even than the Klon-
dixie. And after a dozen years there
came the recent dramatic corrobor-
alton.
The fact is not generally known
perhaps, that it was the discovery Of
gold in California in 1847, which led
to the discovery in Australia. With
in four years the annual output from
the fields of California reached $780,
600, 900 and 1t was Mr.. Hargreaves
