O. E. ERICKSON, SEATTLE VISI
TOR, MAKES ANNOUNCMENT
' IN VANCOUVER.
SEATTLE, Feb. 19. {JP)—0. E.
Erickson, capitalist of Vancouver, B.
C., who left Seattle Thursday after
an extended visit, announced yester
day that a railroad started 15 ryears
ago up the Bear River from the head
of Portland Canal and abandoned
when the World War began will be
built next summer. The route lies
entirely in Canada.
Mr. Erickson, one of the discov
erers of the Premier silver-lead
mine, which is in Canada 14 miles
from Hyder, Alaska,' made the an
nouncement in Victoria, B. C. He
said a syndicate, including Joseph
Green of Hyder and a bank in Chi
cago, had bought several hundred
million feet of standing timber on
the Bear River and on Marmot
Creek, a tributary of the Bear.
The purchase includes about 12
miles of bed graded for the railroad,
on part of which steel was laid.
The timber, including hemlock and
Norway spruce, is largly of species
low in resin and thus suitable for
the manufacture of paper. A saw
mill is to be erected at Stewart, in
British Columbia two miles from
Hyder. Some of the timber is to be
sawn at Hyder and the remainder
loaded onto steamers there for dis
tribution to pulp mills along the Pa
cific Coast.
A regular meeting of the Seward
City Council takes place Monday
night.
