GREAT CAMP
Another mining engineer and expert j
has made an examination of the. Con
rad mining properties in the Windy
Arm district and another verdict in j
their favor has been rend 'red. Alex- 1
ander Smart, of Rossland", B C., rep
resenting William MacKenzie, who has
succeeded to all the interests in these
properties except those of Col. J. H. I
Conrad, may be add-'d to the men [
learned in the science and practice of
mining, who are enthusiastic over the j
great richness of this district to which
Col. Conrad has directed the attention
of the mining- world.
Mr Smart arrived at Skagwav last
week for the purpose of examining the
Conrad properties and reporting upoa
them to Mr. Mackenzie. He had free
access to the works of all the Conrad
companies end their records,
and the assistance of all the
men he required. He left for the
south, af er comp eting' t he examina
tion, on the Jefferson yesterday. His
judgment is one of approval, without
qualifications. Said he:
"The showing of the Conrad proper
ties on Windy Arm, in the quan
tity of the rich ore contained
and its availabiltiy for working
purposes, is much better, very much
better than I had dared to hope
for, notwithstanding all that has been
said for them. It is the best I ever saw
for the amount of work that lias been
done. Unquestionably the beginning
of a very great mining camp has been
made."
The manner of Mr. Smart's saying
and the apparent enthusiasm which
permeated him spoke even more thin
words of what he had found on Windy
Arm.
In speaking of his examination, Mr.
Smart said:
"I took no man's word for anything.
I speak of what I saw, and will report
on that only."
"Then your report will be one of
approval?" asked Mr. Smart's in
terrogator.
' More than that," said Mr. Smart.
