With the advent of spring  there'has been an increase in the  demand for lumber.  Local lumber dealers report  several large orders from  Alberta.  ���The Crow's Nest Pass Lumber  Co., are,preparing to bringdown  a drive of logs! from the St.  Mary's river camps.  Everything goes to show that  the chances for Southeast. Kootc,  nay lumber in the markets of the  . Northwest should' beu except ion-  ally good this year;  ��� '. Logging activity in thelvoote-  "nay valley is now ended, a. conservative estimate places.the ci.it  at about 55.000.000 feet of logs.  Southeast Kootenay seems to  have a particular attraction for  lumbermen from all parts of  Canada and the United States.  Several representatives of-Eastern Canadian lumbering concerns  are expected at Steele next  month, w,ho are anxious to secure timber limits in the Kootenay valley.  SOUTHEAST  KOOTENAY.  ���*)      ���'   ���  %mMm��MMMMlMM��MM����'M.%%MMM��mMMTOMM%%M��%MllMM��%��V  A   CHARACTER   SKETCH.  ry  Chas Sweeny���What_-May be-Expected if He Takes Hold of  the Sullivan.  Proposed Railways THat Will Traverse THe District.-���Ari Ideal Location  For a Smelter.  The accompanying sketch gives a fair idea of how Southeast Kootenay will look  when those roads are completed: Both the Canadian Pacific and the Great Northern  are operating in the .coal areas.    These lines cross at Elko.  Three surveys have been made for the Corbin road to Spokane. Of these Mr.  Corbin says the one up the Yahk valley will be accepted. Thc.Yahk empties into the  Kootenay at Libby, as shown on the map. Mr. Corban says the road will follow this  stream from the International boundary. Just where it will connect with,the Crow's  Nest, branch is not known. Surveys have been made from Elko and Wardner. The  character of the country is most favorable for grades and railway construction. There  isalso fino.timber and agricultural lauds.  A charter will be applied for to build a road from Pilot Bay on Kootenay Lake to  the head of the St. Mary's River to connect with the Kootenay Central at Port Steele:  The timber and mining opportunities'are the attraction there.  Large tracts of timber are being secured on the upper Kootenay and White river  by a company who will put in a plant at Canal Plat, in anticipation of the construction  of the Kootenay Central. ,  It will be soon with theso roads converging at a point on the Kootenay River the  locality will have special advantages for a smelter. It will-be in the midst of coal,  w'atorpowor and radiating lines of railroads botli_to the mines and the outside world.  Mining Notes.

Silver is. going down, while  zinc is going up. It is now more  appropriatevfor the "smart set"  to talk of their zincware, instead  of silverware..  ������/flip Tracy, creek district is  seamed with numerous large,  well defined contact veins carrying high grade ore of copper and  silver-lead.  Prospecting by automobile is  11 io latest novel idea in mining.  Two Colorado men 'left Denver  for,a prospecting1 trip through  Colorado. Arizona ;.; and , New  Mibxicn.  It now looks as though the  Port Steele Mining Division will  this year carry off the honors  for silver-load production in this  province.  Here in the vicinity of Port  'Steele are many mines lying-  dormant that have tine showings,  awaiting transportation that can  only be afforded by the construction - of : the Kootenay Central  Railway.  In a. short time the force of  men employed :at the Trail'smelter,   will    probably   be doubled.  owing to the large amount of  lead expected as soon as the St.  Eugene mine is working to its  capacity.      i!, '  ��� The Tiger-Pooruian group of  mines,, situated on the divide between Wild Horse and Sheep  creeks; and the Estella'in'me on  Tracy creek, give pro.mi.se of becoming producing mines, on the  completion of the Kootenay Central  Railway.  Wild Horse creek is the oldest  mining- camp in   the  Kootenays.  Famous as the producer, of $17.-1  000,000   in   placer   gold.  100 men find employment here,  and the placers are worked  steadily every day during the  mining season.  The St. Eugene mine at Moyie  has commenced operations,, and  bids fair to rival in production  the balance of the silver-lead  mines .of; the Kootenays. The  concentrating- plant, is complete  and'..funis' out high grade.concentrates. ,. .  A number of petroleum springs  are known to exist in Southeast  Kootenay. One is on. Sage  creek, another is on Oil.creek in  the Flathead valley. There is  reason to. believe that these do-  posits are of great commercial  value.  There is plenty of arsenic in  sonic of the Wild Horse creek  ores, but no attention is paid to  the fact that-there is a market in  England for thousand of tons  annually, and the price; ranges  from ��55 to' 890 per ton. At  present it��� is ��05 per ton. It  might pay to exploit this branch  Over' of mining. p  The announcement that   Chas.  Sweeny is about to take the controlling interest in the   Sullivan  mine,'   is not only the best thing  that lias been said for the stockholders of the company,  but the  best  thing  that  has   been   said  for Southeast   Kootenay.      Mr.  Sweeny is a miner.      He  is  not  only a iniiier: ho is a man of extraordinary  force  "of  character  and personality.    His career has  been tilled with more  adventure  than   is   usually   put   into   the,  heroes of romance.'      ��    ��� ���      �� ,  He began his mining career as  i   working 'miner  on   the Com-  | stock'at Virginia City,   Nevada,  land rfrom   that 'time until about  (ifteen   years   ago    he     had    a  I wonderful and varied experience  About ."fifteen     years    ago   he  undertook   the   development  of  some  of  the  prospects   of   the  Coeur d' Alone,   Idaho.      They  were hard,   uphill   propositions,  but difficulties were no,obstacles  to Sweeny's ambition.   With him  the rabbit had to climb the   free,  no matter whether he  had claws  Buffalo  Hump,   and   before   he  took out a'dollar he  put $1,144,-  000-into the Big Buffalo. - -When  something  of the  kind   is done  here there will be mines here.  ,   Mr. Sweeny is president of the  Federal   Mining   and   Smelting  Company which pays seven  per  cent per annum on   n capitalization of $?10,000,000 which  means  about 200 per cent on the investment.    If Mr. Sweeny takes hold  of the Sullivan the shareholders  may expect some mining and results.     All ,thc North Star  hill  needs to make it   another  Lead-  viile is a miner of y<U\  Sweeny's  genius   and   methods   of doing  ihings.   ������ '        r  ST. LOUIS EXPOSITION.  or not.' To use his own remarks  about his affairs at that time:���  I have robbed everybody froti^  Ireland to Africa to keep this  thing going. 1 have broke my  mother' and my mothers-in-law,  'my .brothers and brothers-in-  law, and if 1 don't find some one  1. can" rob of .money enough to  put this thing through and  square myself I will land in the  penitentiary."  There were .'times when things  did not go, but Sweeny did not  stop, i At times he was reduced  to very embarrassing circumstances. "Finally' things came  his way and he was there to stop  thorn, and today he cis at the  head of a corporation that mines  one-third of the lead of the  Unitod'States. He ran the first  long tunnel in the Coeur d'- Alone  to proye the productiveness of  the veins at depth. The funnel  was 3,000 feet long. . ThereQwas  no ore in the.vein where it was  tapped. This broke him and his  friends, too; but he kept at it by  going in debt, and drifted till he  At noon today president  liooseveltrwill press an electric  button at\ .Washington, and the  great engines in the machinery  palace and power houses will  start throbbing���and the Louisiana Purchase Exposition will be  opened to the world. ��� " '  " The ceremonies will be opened -  with an invocation by   the   Rev.  Prank W. Gunsaulus of Chicago,  followed    by    the   rendering of  ������America," by ihe bands, and an  address   by   the   Hon.    D.    ,R.  Francis, president of  the  expo-,  sition, followed by addresses  by  I! L. Taylor, director of works,  Thomas II. Carter, president of  ihe national commission,   E.   H.  llarriman.     The  oration of the,  day will.be delivered   by  Secre- ,  taty-Taftr'as'the  representative   .  of President Roosevelt.        ,   ' ��'   '  Following the conclusion of  ihe opening- ceremonies the  denizens of "The Pike" will  have their innings. The parade  of all, nations will take place,  just to make known the fact that  the great amusement feature of  the exposition is now open.  Every clime will be represented, and all nations will elbow���=.  one another at the exposition.  ������Old Glory'', as patriotic Americans affectionately dub their  national colors, tloats merrily in  the breeze, having for company  the Union Jack of England and  the tricolor of Prance, also   the  1114  found ore. Since then he has  been touching the high places, eusigns of Spain, Germany,  only. He has kept the courts of! Austria, Sweden, Japan, and of  the United States busy with mm-j-sister   republics   to   the  south.  Hoisted high, are the colors of  Turkey. Morrocco, Siara and  Greece. The natives of all these  countries, together with out-  sisters aud brothers from across  had to deal with labor unions, ! the Canadian border, will find a  strike violences, martial law and! rendezvous   on    the   exposition  litigation. ���' He surrounded  himself with the best brains and  genius in every department of  his business, aud has won in  nearlv    every    instance.        He  "busted" banks, but all, theso  things he overcame. P'or a time  he worked his properties   under} time being at least  United'  ground that will make them feel  as if they were at home, for  the  the protection of the  States military. His attorney  while in his employ was  elected to the United States  senate! When Sweeny- found  hm he was a prospector.  Sweeny knew men as he did  mi lies, and he took Mr. Hey burn  out of the hills aiid put him in  charge' of liis legal business.  Much of his success may be  attributed to his capacity to use,  other people. The young man,  W. Clayton Miller, who is general manager of his corporation,  was "a boy just out of school  when he came to Sweeny. Today he gets a salary of 810,000 a  year for his services. He is Mr.  Sweeny's confidential advisor,  and Sweeny puts, up money on  his recommendation. Mr. Miller  examined the Sullivan a short  time ago. Mr. Sweeny has  never seen the Sullivan mine and  probably never will.  He w.ts the genius back of the  County Court.  Judge Forin held a sitting of  the County Court at Fernie on  Wednesday, and at Cranbrook  on Thursday  A Tri-Weekly Servioe.
