ado your duty" were the words OF
| Lord Wellington TO his soldiers just

tory tells US how we'll they obcyed.
| The same advice might properly be
given TO every living man at this time.
There are many men who would do
their whole duty il time of war or
great need, but who sadly neglect it in
times OF peace, they would gladly risk
their lives for their country, but when
there is no such great occasion, neglect
their plain simple duties to their God,
their families and themselves. 1t is
not for want OF honor nor because they
do not love their families, but from
pure neglect; us III instance, statistics
compiled by the national authorities
show that more deaths result from
bowel complaints than any other one
cause, except consumption yet not more
than one family in six are provided with
medicines that Will relieve or cure the

Profitable Venture.

Jonathan Bourne, Jr., of Bedford
Mass, about a year ago purchased .
gold mine near Sumpter, Oregon, foi
something over $4,000. A few weeks
after $4,000 was offered to him for one
quarter interest, but he refused. After
working the mine for some time, he has
disposed of the property to = company
consisting mainly Of st. Louis capitalists
for 81 10000 in cash and four million
dollars in stock. Experts have estimat-
ed that a net profit of 100000 per month
can be made.-Mining Record.

Better Outlook.

1t is a matter of daily remark, in the
eastern financial centers, that mining as
a business presents many more favor
able and attractive features to business
men than ever before. From this we
argue q satisfactory improvement i'm the
tone Of public opinion regarding this
important enterprise, and unless some
unforeseen and unfavorable movement
should occur, is it safe to predict, not
only a marked improvement but a rapid
change in the minds Of the people
which will result in the movement OF
large sums of needed capital in the
direction Of mining investment. The
chief danger We apprehend will be from
injudicious and short sighted movement
of parties owning mining properties, or
interested in mining localities, who, in
their haste to C the prize that is
offered, may, as they have many time,
in the past, practically kill the goose
that would have laid for them the
golden egg.
1t may be truly said that the letharcv
of the past few years, ard of the present
time, which has crippled SO many
promising localities, is due chiefly to
this selfish and unwise policy, which, in
its blindness, would sacrifice permanent
good for temporary gain, and the conse-
quence may be most justly ascribed TO
the mine owners themselves. Whether
the experience of tho past has taught
them wisdom remains to be seen. and
upon the answer Of this question de-
ponds much of the immediate and the
future activity and success in the min
ing industry. Investors have generally,
throughout the country, profited by the
experince they have purchased, and
will not repeat the history of the past.
Mining has, with business men and
capitalists, come to be generally regard
ed as a productive and substantial in
dustry, the profit, the desirability and
success Of which is to be measured and
judged by the tangible verdict of pro-
duction, rather than by the former
standards of picked samples, and the
glowing imagination of the hopeful
promoter. So far it has been plainly
apparent that there has been a lack of
consistent business methods and har-
mony of action in the mining camps.
There has been no union Of effort and
harmony Of interest which has COM
pretended the fact hat the permanent
good Of all would result in the highest
benefit to each, but the rule has been
too general where the scramble for self
has taken the form Of AN active and
indiscriminate denunciation Of the
property of all others. IL these things
are to be continued, the history of the
present improvement in the direction of
mining investment will be short lived
and easily written.
We are confident, from a careful re-
view Of the wide field Of the mining
industry of this continent, that there is
at the present time the beginning Of one
Of the most important epochs of practi-
cal and permanent advancement that
eve has beon known in the history of
this industry; but it's growth, benefit,
and result, will depend largely upon the
spirit which prevails, and with which it
is met throughout the mining territory
of the country --Mininn Rauinw

down to business they always "get

in recent history that invigorate this
claim. The most signal and unique of
these is the capture Of the ten votes in
