TOO MUCH BOOMING

 The mining district at the hea'F ' the Portland Canal will require ye@' of serious scientific prospecting, such as has been going on there on a Scv properties for years. And the pr spectors who do that work will be 'c. warded in time, some of them, WI others will lose years of endeavor.

 Scientific prospectors, men wno are used to going into the hills, tu plug along. month after month, pick ing blanks and who often persist in their hunt until they do find it, wn' have ample opportunity in the mining district back from Hyder, as they will in the vicinity of Ketchikan.

 But # there: is any great innIsn from all over the States, Canada or Great Britain, as threatens, scores and hundreds of them are going to te disappointed. They are going to feel that they do not fit in, and they are ultimately going to get out, knocking and spreading transformation that will hurt in the long run.
