THE New York Sun has a way of
seeing the truth of things that is often
deeply disconcerting to those who plan
and scheme to blind the unthinking.
The Sun is paying considerable atten-

whole appreciative. In describing,

THERE appear to be cycles in the
history of every mining district during
which development work is extended
from the higher grade ores through
all the different classes down to those
which by the use of the best modern
processes will yield only very small
profit. During the earlier periods in
this development prospects are opened
and abandoned, development work is
limited to the mines of greatest value,
and much mineral bearing ground 1s
passed over in the search always for
something better. Some of the best
paying mines in existence have been
opened on leads which bad been passed
by in disgust more than once by disap-
pointed prospectors. Along the
Sierra Madre line and the
White Oaks such instances as these are
plentiful. In many cases men with
little capital have confined their atten-
ton to abandoned prospect holes. In
most cases these represented early dis
coveries of ore of too low grade to ad-
NIT of profitable working under the old
conditions of long distance overland
freighting. Now with railroads run
ming within short distance these pro-
perties assume an Importance never
looked for by the pioneers. In Ga
lena. Kansas, town now producing
large proportion of the lead output
of the United States, half of all
the mines, some Of them worth half
million dollars, were not very long ago
abandoned prospects. Along the lines
of our two new mineral railways there
Is great quantity of middle grade
and low grade ore that is now extreme
ly profitable to work. So far as the
Sierra Madre is concerned it is prob
able ID. DC Ter esults will be obtain
ed by developing the mineral deposits
along the line of the road or close TO it
than By going a long ways into the
high mountains where the ore is rich
err but transportation is very difficult.
