FROM MININ'! ZEST TO ZION
Commenting on the selection of
i has. F. Caldwell as heud of the
Dowie church, mention of which
was mode in a recent issue of this
paper, Northwest Mining Truth
(Spokane) says:
The selection of Charles F. Cald
well, one of the most picturesque
characters in cbritemporary mining
history of the Northwest, as head
of the Dowie “church” at Zion City,
will not only surprise his innumer
able friends throughout the West,
but will furnish one more proof that
■i man who has passed through the
experiences of pioneer ininuig h.e
is not afraid to tackle any job that
comes to hand. Two mining men
have reached high place as govern
ors of their respective states in the
past few years, and many another
has had honors thrust upon him,
but so far as we know this is the
first time a rough-and-tumble rain
bow chaser has been niched in such
an exalted position, We are in
clined to think that the call of the
wild wiil prove too much for him
when dissension arises, as it may
even in well regulated churches,
and that in the not distant future
thetjener.10verse.er of Zion will
return to oversee n !>oom or a pros- j
pect in some other place. Mean-]
while he will doubtless apply him
sell with the energy for which he
is noted to the task of saving souls
instead of metallic values and there
by gain further experience * > Bound
out a strenuous earre* r. As long
as he remains berv^ '-c :• and
Babel" the mirmg i dustry will
have a friend at church and who
knows what that may mean to the
mines of the Silvery Slocan, nidi
ever and a!way?- yearn for t! ? cap
ital of the effete East. We hope the
inantleof Elijah wall fit him hr
ingly and, with all his old friends of
the pioneer days of strenuosity,
wish him the best or luck. He has
once more proved his nerve and
versatility
