They Offer u Field for Legitimate
and Profitable Enterprise.
Several failures Of mine stockbroking
firms have lately been reported in the city
of New York. These failures have been
caused mainly through the misrepresenta-
ton of INSCRIPTIONS promoters who have
succeeded in placing upon the market
worthless properties at high figures.
Eastern capitalists have not been content
to take oven chances with poor prospect
ors, who have spent years of their lives
searching III the bowels of the earth for
the precious metals. They nave claimed
that it is not their province to prospect
for ore from the surface, but many were
willing to pay high prices for mines al
ready developed. Their declarations have
brought out a horde of sharpers who have
perfected their plans, and worked the mar
ket to the Queens taste. When will East
ern capitalists learn that mines already
developed up to a paying standard are sell
dom offered for sale until the pay ore gives
out? The average miner who is fortunate
enough to own such a property hardly
ever cares to sell out, except at extrava-
CANT figures, unless it happens that such
expensive machinery ID needed 1or the
further development of his mine, as is
beyond his means to purchase. 1t is
the general experience in all mines that
poor places will occur in them; also that
all ore bodies will give out sooner or later,
but no reason can be given why other pay
ing ore bodies will not be found in them
while developments are in progress. We,
who live in the midst of paying mines, some
Of them having yielded splendid dividends
to their owners, know that it will repay
those who have the courage to break
ground and prospect for gold and silver,
or other metal and ores from the surface
of the earth to a great depth, if a reason
able amount of money is expended with
due economy and proper Judgment. Then,
why should men who have money to spare,
that they do not need to use in the con-
duct Of other lines of business in which
they are engaged, be afraid to risk a few
hundred or even a few thousand dollars in
legitimate prospecting in ~well-known min
ing sections? We do not advise people to
spend every dollar they possess, but we are
sure that Eureka District has within its
boundaries thousands of acres of mineral
land that if properly prospected can be de-
veloped into dividend paying mines with a
reasonable outlay.

THE CHRONIC AGAIN.
We hope that what is about to be said
will not induce Mr.. Wren to rise to a ques-
ton of privilege in the Justice Court this
morning in the Quick-Crabb case. He
got up and said that Aaron A. Sargent
is entitled to all the credit for Chinese
legislation, and that Senator Miller,
whom Mr.. Stephens %eulogized as being the
right and particular champion of this
proposition, had nothing to DO with it.
He did not want the meeting to adjourn
until lie had a chance to say this. After
wards the audience were congratulating
themselves that he had blown himself
empty, and the meeting was about to be
adjourned, when Mr.. Stephens whispered
in his ear that in the copious distribution
of taffy Mr.. Powning had been overlooked.
This brought the chronic presiding officer
to the edge Of the platform again to do the
business for the Hon. G. G. who came
within a hairs breadth Of getting left.
Mr.. Wren's eulogy did Mr.. Pown-
ing no good, and it might have been
better for the Republican nominee
for Congress had he been overlooked alto
gether. Mr.. Wren devoted most Of his re-
marks by indirection to a gentleman who
asks nothing at his hands, instead of to
his proper subject, DIR. Powning. Mr..
Wren grows more and moro jealous
the older and older he gets OF any
body who has been to Congress and
''got his oar in" feeling that it is beyond
any effort of rhetoric at even his command
to make anybody believe that he ever ''got
his oar in anywhere among the represent
alive men of the Nation.
Adjourned.
