The eyes OF the Denver and Colo
RADIO Springs speculative worlds are
upon the San Juan. They are looking
for properties In this section for In
vestment and speculative purposes.
and the demands on the San Juan re-
gion would be greater from these
sources If more were known of San
Juan's immense mining resources by
the speculative mining public, both of
Colorado and the east Several big
deals are pending at Colorado Springs
for San Juan county properties, and
which VIII lead to the early develop
ment Of as many producers In the vi
cinity Of Silverton II they are consrm-
mated. The principle obstacle to
these deals being consummated is the
danger of the prospective sellers over
loading their property. Those who
are in the market for mines and pros
pective mines viii not pay prices
above what their experts report are
beyond the mines earning capacity
This phase of the mining business
has been created by failure OF many
overloaded propositions to pay divi-
dends In the past, and honest promot-
ers are endeayoring to profit by fail
ures OF predecessors and are keep
ing their operations within the bounds
OF reasonable business judgment from
the start. Colorado Springs capital
Is especially anxious to secure a foot
hold In the San Juan. but lacks that
detailed Information of San Juan's
mines and prospects which is and has
been available of the Cripple Creek
field for many years. and which has
contributed largely 10 the financial
activity that Cripple Creek has en-
Ioyod. In proportion as explicit In.
formation of the San Juan mines and
mining resources is disseminated
among Colorado Springs and Denver
investors will the San Juan's progress
in the immediate future be marked"
