The western boundary is the\nheight of laud which forms tbe watershed between the waters of the Kootenay lake and rivet. Ou the north we\nhave the height of laud separating tbe\nColumbia river, (lowing north, and the\nKootenay, flowing south, To the east\nis the summit of the Rocky mountains,\nand ou tbe south the forty-ninth paral\nlelof latitude. South East Kootenay is\na rich country, now on the eve of full\ndevelopment and expansion.\nThe wonderful wealth of this district\nhaa long beeu known and in the early\ndays of placer mining it almost rivalled\nCariboo in its yield of millions. The\nlapk of a railroad, however, proved a\ngreat drawback to the development of\nthe country. Poor means of communication and the heavy cost of transportation, combined with the rich discoveries\nin more accessible parts ofthe province,\nretarded operations aud prevented the\nprogress In development which would\nhave reached immense proportions bad\nthe circumstances beeu more favorable.\nBut such wealth could not long remain\nhidden. This new mining empire, which\nwas hitherto a sealed region, was opened\nin 1898 by the Crows Nest railway, a\nbranch of tbe great transcontinental\nrailway, the Canadian Pacific. The\ncompletion of this branch, which leaves\nthe main liue at Dunmore Junction and\nextends soutli through the mineral fields\nto the camps in the iHJiiudary country,\nbas removed all obstacles und bas opened\nlo the world a vast tract of land second\nto none in its boundless mineral resources.\nExtensive mining operations are being\ncarrietl on in Soulh Fast Kootenay.\nThe North Star and Sullivan group yield\nimmense quantities of low-grade silver,\nand the St. Eugene, Lake Shore and\nothers ou Moyie lake are famous for\ntheir silver-lead deposits. Tl\e copper\nproperties on the Hull aud Elk rivets are\npromising, ami placer mining is extensively carrietl on, on Perry, Weaver and\nWild Horse creeks. These are but lew\nof the mauy successful ventures in mining investments. Fast Kooteuay also\npossesses oneofthegreate&tcoal deposits\nin tbe world. This coal will supply coke\nfor West, as well as East Kootenay\nsmelters. Already the Fernie coal mines\nou the Elk river have made large shipments of coke, and are supplying West\nKooteuay smellers,\nNor are minerals the only resource of\nSouth East Kootenay. Unlike other\nmining districts it has large tracts of\nfertile land especially adapted to farm\nj. roduce and stock railing, aud settlers\nhave tbe advautage ot being able lo get\na good cash price at home markets.\nAnother source of wealth to East Kootenay are the vast timber limits. There\nare miles of unbroken forest land, tall\ntamaracks, stout pines and gigantic firs.\nLumbering is one of tbe most important\nindustries in tbe Kootenays, and lumber\nis shipped from there to all parts of the\nDominion.\nSouth East Kootenay Is young, yet it\nbas severat towns with bright and promising futures. Among othersare Feruie,\nnear the coal fields, headquarters for\nmining supplies, Elko, Warduer and\nMoyie, towns on the line. Kimberley,\nthe terminus of the North Star branch,\nFort Steele, the pioneer town, and Cranbrook. the divisional point of tbe C. V.\nR. on the Crows Nest line, aud the\nfuture great commercial center and\nmetropolis of Soulh East Kooteuay.\nTruly, \"South East Kootenay Is All\nRight.\"\nIt is necessary that such a district\nshould have one commercial and government center, and that center should\nhe the most accessible from all parts of\ntbe district. Geographically, Cranbrook\nis most favorably situated and as a suitable railway ceuter, the towu bas no\nrival.\nCraubrook is an ideal western town.\nIt Is beautifully situated with mountains\nrising on all sides, a rural park skirting\nits limits, nnd a sparkling stream flowing\nfrom far above the town, down one side\nof Baker bill and over the green prairie\nto the northeast of the town.\nUntil a few years ago the town waa\npractically unknown. Although the\nproperty was purchased by Colonel\nBaker about 15 years ago, the present\ntownsite was not laid out till 1897. Tbe\ncolonel's residence on Baker hill was the\nfirst step toward tbe now progressive and\nup-to-date town, which is the headquarters for the transaction of all important\nrailway business concerning the Crows\nNest line aud Kimberley brancb, all\ncustoms business for the district, and\nbanking busiuess for tbe towns of Wardner, Fort Steele, Kimberley and Moyie.\nA great deal of lumber business is also\ntransacted iu Cranbrook. These various\nconditions are fast making a uame for\nthe town.\nDuring tbe past Cranhrook has not\nbeen able to boast of superior, or even\nordinary, educational advantages, owing\nto the rapid increase in tbe number of\nschool children, and the fact thut the\ngovernment grant for a echool, applied\nfor in one year, waa not supplied till the\nnext, aud was, consequently, insufficient\nwhen received. At last, however, the\nschoolboard has succeeded in providing\nfor that need, and has erected a handsome two.story building. This, with the\nold building, affords ample accommodation.\nNor are the morals of Cranbrook\nneglected. The town supports five\nchurches aud has Ihe good uame of being the best church going town in the\nKootenays.\nThe people of Cranbrook are justly\nproud of their town, and Cranbrook, iu\nturn, ought to be proud of its people.\nThere are no petty jealousies existing\nsocially, aud uo narrow-minded criticisms about other towns. Tbe people\nare generous in their opinions and liberal\nin the dispensation of good things.\nThey have never failed to respond heartily to auy action taken to further the interests of their town. Nor do they forget what they owe to the widespread influence of The Herald and its popular\netlitor, who, since coming here, has ever\nshown thc greatest interest in the welfare of the town, who bas takeu an active part in all local enterprises, aud who\nnever fails, when Ibe opportunity --fiords,\nI to sound the praises of \"Beautiful Cran-\nI brook \"\nWINNER OF SECOND PRIZE.\n! By Miss Minnie Grant,\nSouth East Kootenay is a district with\ngreat possibilities. Its healthy climate,\nbeautiful scenery and boundless resourses\nare euought to make any place prominent. Hut peopled as it is with hardy, intelligent men, who doeverytbiug for the\nbenefit ofthe community, this portion of\nmir fair Dominion will certainly become\na pride to the nation.\nIts rugged mountain peaks, beautiful\ngreen valleys and grass covered plains\ncould alone attract scores of people,\nbul atlded to tbis there are coal, silver-\nlead, gold, copper and iron deposits,\ntherefore prospecting is being vigorously\ncarrietl on with most gratifying results.\nFeruie is the center of the coal fields,\nthe value of which can only be ascertained by actual search, The eleven\noverlying seams make a total thickness\nof 148 feet of coal exposed, aud there are\nindications of tbe presence of iron uear\nthem. Large daily shipments of coal\nare being made, and 106 new coke ovens\nare being constructed.\nMoyie possesses valuable deposits of\nhigh grade silver-lead. The principal\nproperty, St. Eugene Consolidated, is\nthe second largest lead producer in\nNorth America.\nElko is a growing towu at tbe crossing\nor Elk river, forty-five miles east of\nCranbrook. It is in the midst ofa fertile district with splendid water power,\nwhich, wilh the trade of Tobacco Plains,\nwill make it prosper.\nAnother town making rapid progress\nis Michel. This station sprang into existence within the last year and u half,\nand has uow one large store and mauy\ncumfortable dwellings.\nFort Steele, situated on the Kootenay\nRiver, about twelve miles fiom Cranbrook, is the present judicial ceuter of\nSouth EaBt Kooteuay. Close behind It\nare the mining properties of the Wild\nHorse, which are becoming rapidly developed.\nTwenty-two miles from Cranbrook, at\nthe terminus ofthe Nortli Slar brancb of\nthe C. P. R , is tbe town of Kimberley.\nNear it is lhe North Star miue, which,\nwith a cupital of J|,000,000 is paying\ndividends of 1 percent monthly. Here\nalso is the Sullivan which pays for development with the profits of tbe shipments.\nApart from the mines there is another\nsource uf wealth in tbis remarkable district. We can safely say, that there are\nin this vicinity, extensive oil fields ouly\nwalling development to become very\nvaluable, and if the talked of new railroad is opened up in this part of the province, means of transportation will be\nmuch cheaper, which will be a great\nbenefit.\nBut all tbis must have a commercial\ncenter, aud ideal one is found in\nCraubrook, situated in a delightful\nvalley between the Selkirk and Rocky\nMountains, It is nestled near the loot\nof Mount Baker and is furnished with\nexcellent water from the surrounding\nbills. Farms and ranches dot the prairie\nat tbe foot of (he mountains, where fruits\nand grains are grown abundantly, and\nlarge herds of cattle graze on splendid\nbunch grass, Not far from Cranbrook is\nthe town of Creston, located in tbis\nfarming district which is being experimented on by the government. But, to\nreturn to Cranbrook: It is growing\nrapidly and is getting all tbe modern improvements, such as electricity, waterworks aud graded roads. Many well\nstocked stores have a large trade, and\nthe number of hotels, churches, banks\nand schools are scattered about among\nthe comfortable residences that make\nsuch favorable impressions on travellers.\nThe railway shops and the three sawmills employ a large number of men, the\nlatter having a daily total output of 70,-\n000 feet of lumber.\nComparing the Cranbrook of today,\nwith that of some years ago, you are\nstruck with the almost miraculous progress that has been made. We can\nscarcely believe tbe old time prospectors,\nwhen they say that a few years ago this\n,tretell oflaud, tbat is so thickly becoming inhabited antl adapted to the\nuse of man, wns the home of wild beasts\nand Iudlaus, who roamed about at will.\nAud if it continues as it 1ms begun mauy\nnf us will see the day when Cranbrook,\nas llie center of this great district, will\nbe second to none in all that makes\nwealth, with the huge chimneys of\nsmelters looming up above the giant\nbranches of magnificent trees, and un tbe\ngentle breezes will be wafted the sound\nof saws, making havoc among the beautiful pines that now form a protecting wall\naround this lovely valley. We dlso expect to see, iu a time not far hence, on\nthe brow of one of these green bills, a\nfine structure containing the government\noffices ; and looking from tbem, we will\nsee trains coming from every direction,\nladen wilh ore to be smelted and converted iuto machinery in tbe great me-\nliopolis, \"Beautiful Craubrook,\"\nFootball Concert.\nNext Tuesday evening a concert will\nbe given under the auspices of tbe\nCranbruok Football team.

Probably there Is not auother man ta British Columbia who will be to greatly\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0tssed as will the deceased. He came\nto this province when it was yet youug,\nand when Vancouver was only two years\nold he started the World. By his \u00E2\u0096\u00A0><\nderful energy, strong wilt and great\nabllitv he made tbe World, in a new\ntown and a new country, a power that\nwas felt and recognized not only in the\nprovince, but all over Ctnada. Tbe\nWorld was a daily eiponent of tbe mar*\nvelous .resources of British Columbia,\nand day ln and day oui it has thrown Us\nluflaence for tbe good of tbe province\naad tbe betterment of tbe conditions of\ntbe people. Politically, Mr. McLagan\nwaa a Liberal, but he was not a hidebound partisan. This fact was beautl\nfully Illustrated during the heated campaign last fall, wben Sir Charles Tupper\nvisited the coast. Politically, the\nWorld was doing all In its power to\nelect the Mberal candidate, yet Us editor published one of the best articles\nwritten on theConservative War Horse's\ntrip across tbe continent. It was full\nof kindness, respect and jmrnallstlc\ncourtesy, just inch an article that tbe\ndead journalist would write of a political foe who commanded his personal\nrespect.\nVancouver will miss the mau who has\nbean a potential power in the advance-\nmeat of the Terminal City, and his\ndeath Is a great loss to that community. Hit friends will miss him and his\nenemies will breath easier now that he\nbas gone, The Herald can only tay\ntbat such a man, doing what he has\ndoue, bat earned all the reward that\ncomet to humanity when they enter\nInto the eternal sleep.\nEDITORIAL NOTES.\nSouth East Kootenay stands today as\none of tha very best mining districts lu\nBritish Columbia. Each succeeding\nyear baa demonstrated the fact tbat It\nwas rich In mineral resources and that\nHa fiura It bound to be a prosperous\none. \t\nTbe man who goes Inta a new country\non a aboeatrlng and cleans up a bunch\nof money, is the last one who should\nkick if times get a little quiet,\nTha shipping mines of Soulh East\nKootenay are great producers. Tbey\nhava millions of ore, and will furnish\ntba bests ofs) prosperity for years to\ncoma In this district.

McVittie came down Irom\nBlairmore on Friday morning and returned on Saturday. He reports that\nthe Blairmore district is booming iu\ngood style now and says lhat crowds of\nmen are waiting for the survey of the\ntowusite. Mr. Geho, who is operating a\ncoal property about a mile and a half\nwest ofthe depot, is supplying tbe C. P.\nR. wilb 50 tons a day, and tbe engineers\nsay it is the best coal used on the line\nfor steam purposes. Mr. Geho has sur*\nveyed his owu townsile, but it is for hts\nemployes only, not for public sale. The\nproperty owned by Messrs Baker, Proctor and Fishburn is being developed\nsteadily and will probably make one of\nthe richest coal mines ofthe Dominion\nMessrs. McVittie and Little are developing a property about five miles east of\nBlairmore which bids fair to be the finest property of the district. Already a\n40-root seam of pure coking coal has\nbeen opened up and their men are now\nuncovering numerous seams of a width\nof from four to twelve feet. This property consists of about 8000 acres and\nwill certainly cause a stir when opened\n\"P* \t\nGeorge Miner has a dog that is probably one of the most intelligent canines\nin the district.
