They sold Poorman, War Eagle Iron Mask and Virginia for less than a million; the mines are worth 310,- 000,000 now.

Of course there is very little one yet exposed in the Vir- scared of Rossland and the War Eagle and sold out ina panic.

It was little wonder, two years ago, when the Clarke left Rossland and gave the camp ablack eye. Rossland became a nest of pessimists. Ross Thompson, the founder of the city; Manager Fraser of the Bank: of Mon- treal, and George Plunder of the Mac- kay-Hosmer Syndicate were among the few who still believed in Rossland's fu- ture. They saw work shut down on fifty good prospects and mining com- panies going into debt and difficulty through utter inability to sell trea- sury stock for development purposes. But they did not despair. Gov. Mao- kintosh of the Northwest 'Derritoriu. a veritable tenderfoot in mining, had visited the camp in its boom days. He smoked the pipe of peace in the miner's cabin, and 'he absorbed the gossip of those old fellows who had mined for thirty years all over the continent. and he concluded that in those Bou- land mines were the richest storehous- es of gold in all the world.
