yet hidden-Which he was fore-Ordain-
ed to uncover and give to the world.
For this, his years of preparation had
fitted him, all unconSciously to himself,
but when the emergency rose he was
able to meet it and when the oppOr-
tunity came he grasped it with the grip
of a winner. For this very situation
he had learned how to meet sudden
contingencies; for this, he had learned
to handle men; for this he had gained
experience in smoking out hidden foes:
for this he had studied the flow OF
streams, the nature Of rocks, the char
acter of ores and the details of the ex-
traction Of metals. Life on the plains,
on the trail, in the mountains and
among the mines had fitted him adj
mirably; he was prepared in the best
school Of all, the school of experience.
This is not a mining treatise or I
might tell-if / could-of the changes
he made in the Hope mill, which in
creased its efficiency and marked Nc
Lure as a remarkable metallurgiSt. The
Hope mill is the oldest reduction plant
in Montana. It's story is a tale in itself.

was the greatest silver camp on earth.
Maybe there have been livelier towns
somewhere, than were these two
Philipsburg and Granite-at the ends
of the Granite mountain trail In the
days when silver was q monetary metal.
Maybe there have. but if there have
been, their names and locations are not
q matter Of record. 1t would be a diff
ficult matter to convince anybody who
saw these camps in those days that
there could be any town nvelier. There
was no night in either town. The day
was "a hours long. Every hour was
busy and the lights made the midnight
season as bright as midday. But there
was little disorder; the folks were al
too busy.
OF necessity, a trail which connected
two such towns as these would, itself
be busy. And the road up the noun
tain fulfilled the law Of probability to
a nicely. 1t was a mighty industrious
thoroughfare. The demonstration OF
silver sapped the life blood of the great
industry which made these towns what
they we're Almost within the span OF
a single day, these camps were trans
formed from hives of industry into
deserted villages. 1t was one OF the
interesting experiences Of my life that
/ was present during the exodus OF the
miners from Granite mountain; 1t was
a memorable event. There were nCo
vehicles enough to transport those VINO
wished to ride down the mountain and
manyo of them walked; trunks were pill
ed high upon great hayracks and ship

were tears in a good many eyes, fcf
GRANTEES people loved their town. But
it is not my purpose to describe further
or to discuss at all the dropping OF the
curtain upon the activities OF Granite
mountain. This is to be a story OF tie
man who made Granite mountain FAM
Gus. and who, incidentally, made a
whole bunch Of m~llllonalres.
When the history of Montana is witt
ten. there should be a long chapter
given to the story Of Charles ID. NC
Lure. He took millions out OF Mon
tana ground. A large portion OF this
wealth went to make the famous ST
Louis group of millionaires. Mr.. Nc
Lure retained some of it. A vast slice
of it went back into the development
of the states mining industry and there
are many mills among the Montana
Rockies which are monuments to the
courage Of this remarkable man, many
hoists which are testimonials to his
daring. When he was confident that
there was ore to be found, he never
hesitated a minute to risk his all tc
find it. In the face of encouragement
he became the holder and more deter
mined. The harder he had to fight
the better he fought. And 1t stands
today as his record that he was al
most invariably right.
He was right because he did not form
his opinion Offhand. When he made
