this lihe.
The remarkably high average
value Of the ore must be ascrlbtd
TO the general prevalence of the
leasing system Only one mine,
the Wicks, has been worked under
wages and has itself been produc
tive Of high grade ore. In other
mines, where the leaser has been
subject to royalty Of twenty and
twenty five per cent and mill loss
OF twenty per cent, It has not paid
to handle ore Of less than $40 per
ton value AZ a result the output
Of the camp shows a decrease in
tonnage and in gross value, while
on the other hand profits have been
larger than in former years. The
leasing system is emlnently de
vlsed to effect the greatest good for
the smallest number and at the
greatest expense to the mines, but |
if owners and leasers are satisfied |
it is nobody else's business. 1t is
only fair to the leasing system to
add that the merchants find that
while the volume of business has
decreased, on the other hand col
lections have been better than ever
before and they have incurred no
losses worth mentioning
Even with leasing a considerable
expansion Of mining would ensue
II the owners would adopt more
scale of royalty.
There have been enough miners
successful in realizing considerable
sums Of money during the past
wear to make the business attrac
tive to others and there ls scarcely
