Western Washington Showing “oad Fellows’ Cemetery Rapid Development. An Interesting Resume of Mining Operations in the Country Tributary to Seattle, It fs only within the last year that the mineral resources of Wash- ington have attracted the attention which they deserve. Gearcely 12 months ago, Republic, east of the mountains was practically unknown. Today it is one of the established camps of the state. Two months ago Index, a little town on the Great Northern railway on this side of the mountains, came to the front. Today ls the center of the West- ern Washington mining district. In importance it is an easy rival of the Mount Baker district. Located as it is on this side of the mountains, Se- attle has taken @ deep interest in it from the first. Anthony Corcoran, of the firm of Esheiman & Corcoran, has just re- turned from a trip to Index “The wealth of the mines there is very great,” said Mr. Corcoran to a Star reporter today. “The miners themselves are surprised at the great richness of the ores. I talked with a mining man from Omaha the last night I was at Index, He was looking over the properties there in the interest of certain capitalists. He was pleased with the prospects and will invest large sums of money. “Another man I met was a Mr, Russell, of Tacoma. He was look- ing over the ground preparatory to locating a smelter. He decided upon a location and the smelter will un- doubtedly be built at once. “The Wilbers have built a sus- pension bridge across the south fork of the Skykomish to reach their property. The span is about 275 feet Jong and it is strong enough to use for pack animals. “The Sunset Mining company ts building a tramway from its prop- erty to the town of Index. The com- pany already has out over 5000 tons of ore. “There are several good business openings at Index. One thing espe- claly needed i a hotel. Men were there sleeping on the ground and in tents, A bakery and restaurant al would do a good business, “Tiere is a demand for laborers, who can get $2 a day, and carpenters $2 to $3.50. Miners are wanted and all men can get work that are like- ly to go there. “It is the opinion of practical min- ing men that there are mourtains of good copper ore there. When this fact is thoroughly demonstrated there will be an unlimited amount of capital seeking investment at In- dex.” en REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS The following real estate transfers were filed yesterday in the county tuditor's office: Sheriff to Herman Chaplin, plain- tuft, Igt 8, block 46, Renton hill ad, association to A.
