ADVICE, PROSPECTORS.
Given Without Charge by One
Of Experience.

There Is simple rule that large class
Of mine owners and prospectors should be
impressed with every day in the week, II
they ever expect to develop or dispose Of
their property, and It Is this: Terms can
often be modified, but Misrepresentation
can not be explained away, whether In.
territorial or otherwise. In every camp
there are scores Of men who return home
utterly disappointed and disgusted because
they have been deceived In the value and
quantity Of ore In mine or prospect.
There Is a class Of "alfalfa" prospec.
tors who are foolish enough to believe that
the other fellow does not know anything.
A man who examines property for him.
self or others Is as anxious to find prop.
erty as reported as the owner Is to sell or
work II. It's most certainty that where
. property comes up to the description or
proves trifle better, that "A sale will be
effected, provided the mine Is not over.
loded as to price.
Few seem to realize how few prospects
will stand the test Of inspection, or what
II costs to travel and test mine as It
should be, and even after this Is done It
requires man Of unusual ability and In.
Auenee to obtain capital. For one who
has lived among the most intelligent class
Of prospectors, It Is almost impossible to
conceive why man will work a prospect
q long while and not know what his ore
runs or what Il will average, and yet the
woods are full Of this type Of prospectors.
Even old prospectors know that there Is a
strong tendency for men to deceive them.
selves as to ore values and there Is con.
tinual struggle to resist self deception as
TO average values. This often originates
from the fact that the wish was father to
the thought.
It Is strange that many owners Of pros.
poets will insist upon acting as II the man
who comes TO inspect mine doesn't know
much. The sooner this class Of claim
owners get over this delusion, the more
work will be done all over the camp.
They should remember that II Is hard and
often costly work to inspect mines well
and consummate sales. This truth will
be more evident to many men II they once
start out to secure property and land a
deal. J. F.. l..
