Nothing has been heurd lately of th

Blackstock syndicate, and it ia sincerely
to be hoped that it-is a mistake after ali
and that they will contine their mone;
and energy to nining, which they” ar.
finding so. profitable in this camp. ¢
large deparcuental store, suchas thi
wealthy syndicate would be dikel:
to putin, would play havoc with all th
emall establishinents’ and be the caus
of making many empty store. buildingr
in Rossland, and be the beginning of a:
eva that this: community desires mucl
to aveid.- Of course these conclusion:
are based upon the supposition that peo
ple would patronize these large eatals
lishments instead of the small ones
which ia always the case, because they
underse!l the small ones. Wecan ai
afford(to Pay 2 little more and keep ou
buildings oceupied and our papulatior
on the increage, Then the value of al
town property will continue to rise
while upon the other hand it must de-

Itecemsto us that there are better
opportunitics for men with large capita
to make money in mining than to en.
gage in the ‘store and ‘poarding howe
