J. B. McCullagh PPAIOST™ Ter The prospector is the free lance of his own crusade, individu. ally considered; but socialby looked at, he is the seout-——the eves, the feelers, thrown out right and left into a new country by the advance guard of civilization—the tentative expansion of industrial enterprise. He ts more of a man of ways than of means, but the lack of means is usually compensated for by his creat expectations, and that places him at a stroke upon an equal footing with the eldest sons of our old nobility. He is the noblest specimen of manhood that modern conditions have produced f-reliant, in- dependent, courageous, generous in thought as we is in deed, sanguine to a fault, enduring hardships cheerfully, { of resource and good humor 1 perfeet knight in everything but shining armor. The prospect: ooks the country over, pries into every hole and corner, examines every creek and crack he cor leaves no stone unturned as the saying goes; sniffs oul the lair of the “jpon pirates,” discovers hidden indications of “quarts” full of gold and “pints” of contact leading thereto. He follows the float up- stream instead of down, and does many other equally contradictory things both fascinating and unintelligible to the outside mind ‘ie is the hunter par excellence, his vocation being rightly termed a pursuit and his game a quarry. Strange to say, whenever he locates a claim he calls it “mine.” And that is why the prospeetor and I are such fast friends—what's his is mine, and what's mine is my own! He is the only man T know of that knows how to turn dirt into a paying proposition, or who can slip his hand into a pocket full of gold and transfer the contents thereof into his own pocket without wronging anybody: in that case it is not mine, of course: it is a strike—the signal for all idle hands to start working in- dustriously. It will thus be seen that the ordinary conception of meum and tuum does not apply to the prospector. He is a law unto himself, and lives in a world peculiarly his own. While in the prospective stage he is richer than at any other time, and turns over millions with the ease and dexterity of an expert financier; he does not handle money, of course. What millionaire does? But he specu- lates largely, as evening by evening he sits by his camp fire and cooks his beans and bacon. He thinks of the girl with the golden hair, way back East, or bis dear old white-haired mother, and makes elaborate and sometimes extravagant arrangements for their ease and comfort in the immediate future; incidentally he buys a motor car, or invests in a yacht, or plans an extended trip to Europe with the girl he loves as soon as ever the ceremony is over in the dear little old church in his native village. As he sits mending his moccasin or patching his panis with the illustrated portion of a flour bag, he remembers that dear little old church needs repairing badly, and decides there and then to have it thoroughly restored and fitted up anew before the wedding Why, that’s a very lovely evening, reclining on his couch and watches the faces come It lasts him a whole of balsam boughs, he smokes his pipe and go among the blazing It is an intellectual treat to have a chat with a prospector. His strenuous life, spare living, keen observation and close contact with Nature day by day, his nightly communion with the stars, the light of hope that never fails him, his bright dreams of the future inter- woven with visions of the past, all centreing round the assurance that abundant riches are his for the finding, give to his eyes that look of wonderful depth and distance unknown to the eyes of other thought!! as, logs. men, marking him out as one who, if he have not succeeded in actually laying his hands on the precious metal, has at any rate enjoyed the most splendid prospects, fringed the possession of immense wealth and held in the hollow of his hand for days at a time the great world with all its latent possibilities. The prospector is a man whom [I delight to honor—I under- stand him; I have perfect fellow feeling with him; he appeals to my imagination; I love him! I have known the old timers and the new comers, some have made good and others have failed My heart is still with those who fought well and—failed. Our toast “The Prospector!” To him be every consideration shown, to whom the development of the country is largely due; and when every man has at last come into his own let each spare a kind thought for the many brave fellows who, having blazed the trail and led in the van, have either not returned at al) or have come back from the great quest with empty hands. THE PROSPECTOR. The backwoods life's the life for I yearn not for the town. I love to roam the country free, Call myself lord of all I see And feel at home ‘neath any tree Where chance may set me down. Unburdened of much worldly care, My pack holds all I own Plus little wad for wear and tear; For friend in need a bone to spare, And mine of gold—don’t yet know where— And self—a dozen stone. From what I've seen of men and things, The smile of wealth is hope: The richest man—the man who sings In joy of heart for what gold brings Is he who's out upon his wings Along the mountain slope, known some men who have struck ile— Jolly good fellows all; That is, before they made their pile. But after that they lost their smile, And what with wrinkles, side and bile Their joy seemed very small, I've I say this to sustain my mind Should | go stony-broke: But still I hope the stuff to find- One chance in ten is underlined, And Luck is sometimes color blind And makes a masterstroke. And more, to fortify my soul I always do resolve My looked-for wealth in generous dole To share, a la Carnegie role Help build a chureh, endow a school, Or social problems solve! Thus I go on without disguise, And Happy Man's my name, I'll not be like the other guys The stuff shall ne'er demoralize, Nor change my gait in anywise I'll still be just the same. Rey. James B.
