between 1880 and 1888. At first
the copper ore was sent to Swan

to Soeur d'Alene lake by wagon,

cultural lands"
All the towns along the North
ern Pacific were booming in a big
way. Ellensburg was waging a
campaign to get the state capital.
Olympia was too remote for the
majority of the people, Ellensburg
argued. The state capital should
be centrally located. On the pros
pect of this real firm plated an
addition called the washington
State Capitol Park Addition" and
another launched a newspaper
called the Ellensburg Capital. Its
editor predicted that the popula-
ton of 900 at the
time-would be 10000 by 1896.
What had contributed most to
the growth of ,Ellensburg was the
fact that it was the Quitting point
for miners going to the mines of
the Okanogan country. The reason
this business was able to develop
was that boats coming up the Col
umbia were unable to get past
Priest Rapids. Prior to the extern
sion of the Northern Pacific up the
Yakima valley htere had been a
stage line from The Dalles north
ward to Ellensburg. Now the rail-
road brought supplies as far as
Ellensburg, and the merchants of
that enterprising town developed
a freighting business to connect
with boats on the upper Columbia.
They had two freight lines; one

went east and connected with the
river at point near the present
town of Beverly, and the other ran
north and delivered freight to
steamboats, above Rock Island.
One is able to gain a vivid pic
ture of the mining boom in the Ok
anogan country from this account
by E. J. Dorian, deputy sheriff at
that time in Stevens county, as he
gives it in Told BY The Pioneers:
while deputy sheriff I located
on a claim next to a county COM
missioner. The reservation had not
yet opened for settlement, so
claims could not then be filed; SO
we merely 'squatted." We marked
our boundaries and hoped no one
would Jump them. The day the
reservation opened for entry, both
the county commissioner and I
were in Colville on county bust
ness We rode night and day to get
back to our places in time to pro-

tect them, and even changed
horses; but the trip lasted four
days and on our arrival we found
others had gotten there first. These
claims turned out to be the Ruby,
Fourth of July, First Thought, and
the Arlington. It was dandy
camp the ealry miners established.
Five hundred people were working
and amillion was spent on the de-
velopment.
THE mining boom was now on.
What I realized from the sale Of
my horses and cattle / put into
mining properties. ! was about to
trade my interest in seven mining
claims for land in Okanogan val
ued at ST., 900 when silver was de-
monetized. The deal was off, the
mines having closed over night,
and silver was dead. All we pros
pective millionaires became pau

ed gulches. BY October there were
thousands Of treasure seekers
scattered through those hills, stalk
ing claims and telling logs for
miners shacks where they could
hole up" for the winter.
For two years the boom contin-
ued and then began to subside. One
day in 1885 discouraged pros
pector by the name of N. S. KEEL
logg obtained a grub stake worth
about $40 and a jack-ass to carry it
for him and set out to try his luck
once more. For two days he tramp
ed over the ridges with the animal,
which he staked out at night. Then
one morning he Weakened to find it
gone. Kellogg spent most Of the
day looking for his lost property
and when at last he caught up with
the animal he heaved q big sigh
and sat down on some outcropping
rock to rest.
AS he rested he began examin-
ing the rock and found it to be, 10
and behold!-a vein of almost pure
galena, the ore which lead and sill

covered what later became the
Bunker Hill and Sullivan mine, the
biggest lead and silver producer
in the world.
Prospecting in the Cascades
Gossiping prospectors evolved a
theory that the Occur d'Alene
veins ran north and west across

bolstered by the fact that China

IN am address last Sunday;
We stand at the cross roads of
our destiny. 1t is not easy
to remind America of its serious
condition. One who endeavors 20
do so is called a kill-joy or a crepe
hanger But it is time that we faced
facts.
What are you going to do about
it,? Are you going to sit supinely
and lazily by and let America go
down to destruction?
We are headed - "hen-bent on
wheels" toward an all time high
in traffic deaths and injuries in
1916, according to the National
Safety Council.
Running neck and neck with the
record breaking pre-war toll Of
l94l. we killed 2,410 persons in May
alone That adds up to a total of
l3, 240 fatalities since January l.
43 per cent more than we killed
last year during the first five
months.
Wake up Americal It's high time
to put on the brakes and call a halt
to this awful inexcusable slaughter.
Most people want to drive and
walk safely. It's high time for the
law to see that the rest of the people
obey the traffic laws. It's time for
all to observe the well-established
laws of common sense
and common decency.
All the autos on this earth can
not equal one child's worth.
And now just little humor to
tighten up the picture.

chute because of engine trouble
