These obstacles to the lull development of the marvellously rich gold fields of Cariboo have been largely overcome liy lhe construction of the Canadian Pufcifio railway, nntl the improvement of the irroat highway Irom thai railway to northern Iiritish Columbia, with the result that the work of development has boen vigorously nnd extensively prosecuted. During the past two years several costly livdraulio plants have been introduced by different wealthy mining companies which are now operating well-known claims with most gratifying results, and there is every prospect of a seciMiil golden harvest which in its immensity and value wil! completely overshadow lLat which made Cariboo famous thirty years ugo. Several very promising quartz bearing locations are also being developed in the Lillooet district, mid as machinery capable of treating the refractory ore on the most improved methods will soon bo imported, the excellent results already attained aro attracting miners uud mining meu in large numbers.
