B: merchants, miners, and brokers agree in declaring that the good times have come again, and that this young city is on the high road to unexampled prosperity. I have frequently pointed out that lack of capital has been the main factor in re- tarding the growth of: the Rossland camp. In addition to this the “wild- cat” operator had scared away investors by his machinations. Rut the wild-cat has di from Rossland and has gone in search of green fields and pastures new. At the same time English capitalists have appeared upon the scene, have acquired vast intereata in the Trail creek mining ‘district, and are about to operate in the country with almost unlimited capital. ‘The'London, 7 company of which Sir Charlés is’ the =” head, called the London and British’Co- lumbia Gold Fields corporation, has ac- quired a property a few miles south of Rossland called the Velvet which has all the earmarks of a bonanza gold mine, The Velvet is more than likely to rival the Le Roi as a gold: producer and divi- dend-payer, and nothing cavld: be more fortunate for British Colambia than that s the Velvet chonld be a rich mine.
