Nelson Tribune. —_ Heinze’s paper, the Rossland Miner, is avlaze with indignatian because the Le Roi people have seen fit to build. a smelter of their own. Mr. Heinze has no kick coming from that source. The profit on his‘contract with the Le. Roi mining company for the 75,000 tons of ore has built his smelter and also his railroad’ between Rossland and Trail. That, that company would not consent to continue the loss of $4 a ton on its ore, does not justify Mr. Heinze in maintaining a newspaper for the pur- pose of abusing them and attempting to have an export duty on the product of their mine.

Dated Dec. 15, 1897. { M. E. ALLAN. ion for the beneht of all: Rossland is situated in British Columbia, eight miles from the international boundary line be- tween Canada and the United States, It is reached from the north via the Canadian Pacific to Ar on the C river, from there tu Trail by steamer, and from Trail to Ross- land by the Columbia & Western railway. From the-south via Spokane, Washington, by the «Spokane Falls & Northern and Columbia & Red Mountain railways, Rossland has forty hotels, with bars, eating and lodging rvoms, and a dozen restaurants. There are three weekly news- papers and two dailies. All other branches of business are well represented. ‘The popula- tion is variously estimated . from 6000 to 7500. Board and. lodging at the ho- tels, $2 to $3 per day. Meals 25 to 50 cents. Furnished rooms, $2.50 to $7 per week. . Itis useless to write and ask ifany particular business would pay here. Everybody must be his own judge and take his own chances, hile thero is not work tor all who iaquire, most sober, indus- trious persons who really wish to work have sofar been able to obtain it. We would not advise any man to land here ‘‘broke” .without friends, although many who have done so are doing well, This camp is now settling down on a business bas’ The populace is _ en, not only in working the mines and conducting the busi- ness of the town, but are buying. or bonding and developing min- ing property; buying and eelling real estate; building houses for rental purposes, prospecting and staking prospectors. Many are heresimply looking on ‘in won- derment. We believe it will go on and on until Rossland can boast of a population of 50,000. After that it will probably settle down to a proposition of a pay rol] but not for a few years. There are plenty of money here from all sections of the globe; but the principal investors are from the United States, with Canada largely interested. The history of the camp reads like a fairy tale, and the fabulous riches are scarcely excelled by the imaginary “King Solomon's Mines,” We will not attempt to discusstte mines in asingle ar- ticle, aswe have been writing about them for nearly three years and have not been able to keep ‘up with them. The ore ship- ‘ments speak for themselves. ‘The town has won an enviable reputation for law and.order, It is supplied with waterworks and electric lights. ‘The main street ig giaded aud ten blocks are built up with two and three story busi- nesshouses.
