review OF the mining field in every Stat
and Territory, shows an encouraging activi
ty, and indicates the near approach Of the
time when hundreds of mines, which have
been for years in steady state of develop
ment, will reach point where they may bt
classed among tho permanent producing
mines Of the country. Hundreds of others
which have been source of expense and
have made no retnrn 10 those who have pa.
tiently waited for 8 change in the reports
which come from them, will reach point
where the permanent harvest will show as
surance Of its stelldy permanency Claims and
prospects, which have existed only In name,
will reash stag, where certainty will give
place 10 anticipation. The substantial char.
scter OF the output from SCORES Of new 10.
calities, and the continued and profitable
output from old and established camps, will
do much TO prove the substantial character
Of the mining industry, and show conclu-
siveIy to investing capital. that no better or
more reliable field can be found where IN
csrtainties are reduced to . minimnm, and
the character Of the product such as TO m
sure immediate returns without fear Of
destruction or depreciation.
Ths value of experience and Of scientific
knowledge Is more thoroughly recognized
and Acknowledged, than ever before, and II
is safe to say, that an improved condition,
a more economical development and better
returns will be secured from this fact 1t
Is becoming clearly evident to every care
full observer, that as mining more nearly ap-
proaches business basis, and assumes o
position as brlsiness enterprise. its adyAn-
taRes become nore apparent, and it's true
character better comprehended and under
stood. So far in its history, IL has been
practically mssqueradinR under false
name and In borrowed robes, SO that the
substantial, reliable and desirable charse-
teristios, which are ths principal elements
Of its structure, were hidden and unknown.
The whole secret Of success lies in a single
