periencs, and collecting such information as
will tend to the more successful and rapid
development Of the riches Of the quartz lodes
that abound in the mining districts Of the
State. That \ convention Of this character
was desirable, for the interest Of branch Of
industry that promises so much as a future
source Of wealth for California, we have long
believed; and we regard the holding of this
convention as the commencement Of new
era in quartz mining. From the long ex-
perence Of number Of the operators whose
names are attached to the call and the diff
cultes they have overcome in business that
has proved so disastrous to the hopes Of
many who embarked in the enterprise with
out the necessary information and capital to
enable them to successfully prosecute bus-
ness requiring practical knowledge and a
heavy purse, we expect fund Of information
will be given upon the subject that will serve
to a considerable extent in directing intelli-
gently the labors Of the numerous compan-
les that are just now preparing for work
throughout the State.
That such reliable data should be given at
this time is Of the last Importance, as evil
denced from the fact that quartz mania is
now prevailing in the State that perhaps ex-
ceeds that of 1882 and unless new begin
ners have the light Of experience Of those
who weathered the former storm, to guide
their course and check their recklessness, we
may expect revulsion that will be as unfor-
tunate and ruinous in its results as the one
that preceded it. 3d..
That working quartz is destined to be an
important and successful branch of mining,
seems to have become the general belief and
it is needed but to convince men of means
that the investment is paying one, to cover
the land with mills for crushing ore; and a
convention of the kind to be holden at Sac
ramento, will more directly and prominently
SCI the necessary facts forth to those de.
string to embark in the business, than in any
other way
Should the convention contain the amount
Of intelligence and practical knowledge we
hope for it, its action will be of more lasting
and substantial benefit for California than
that of any asscmblage ever convened in the
State.
