This is the season of the year when
some of our famous backcappers come
out from their hiding places, and al
ready they have started in on their
nefarious work. OF course, The TIMES
man Is blamed for everything imagin-
able. That's right, fellows, we can
stand it and have little the best of it,
as you have lied SO often the voters are
onto your prevarication and backcap-
ping proclivities, and when we are get
ing it from these evil-tongued individu-
ais others are left alone. The latest is
that we are trying to impose heavy
(?) town tax in order to run certain
man out of town. There is nothing in
it. Even if there was that man has
only himself to blame, because he tried
himself to get the late DR.. Kline to
foreclose q mortgage on this shop and
besides beat us out Of property that
rightfully belonged to THE TINES. A
trite saying is that guilty consci'
ence needs no accuser," and it is evi.
dent that's what hurts this individual.
If some of these people would KEEP
their mouths closed, they would fare
much better and have more friends.

veins that outcrop along its line at a
great depth. Illinois capital is at the
head OF the enterprise. This, with the
large mill now nearly completed, and
which will be 10 operation by June LIST
will create quite stir at Elko the

Success Dependent Upon Success.

There is no other profession In the
world so dependent for success on the
smiles of Dame Fortune as that of
mining. A lawyer counts but on him
self to achieve position; doctor earns
honor by his own ability; but with the
mine manager, fortune must be with
him in his mine, and, even when SO,
success is only assured when followed
by his own exertions, splendid organ
ization, mining knowledge and man
agement. No profession calls for men
of harder constitutions, pluckier
hearts or of more intelligence, and to
be successful in its ranks is to reach a
goal which may well be envied by the
rest OF our fellow men. The life of a
mine manager is continual gamble.
He is often expected to achieve results
where there is no mine. and pay divi-
dends where the most expert manage
ment can only meet expenses. The
profession might we'll be called a lot
terry, which has, however, q big drag
in favor OF the bank, and, even when a
prize is drawn in the shape of good
mine, it is only won after the years OF
study have been turned to such account
as to make it q success, and that big
ger than anticipated. No profession
numbers in its ranks such a quantity
OF good fellows; the fortunate of one
day are the unfortunate of the next !;
this tends to make men like each other
for their qualities alone, and leaves q
silken thread of good fellowship run
ming through them which is the envy
OF all other professions and the pride
OF their own. The helping hand should
be extended by the fortunate one OF
today to those of yesterday, or, let us
hope, of tomorrow. Re-
gister.

Lucrative Patents.

The Century Magazine recently had
an interesting article on our patent
system, and possibly the most interest
ing section of it is that which relates
to the success which has crowned the
efforts of many inventors OF novelties
and labor-s aving inventions. We will
quote as follows:
"Every one has heard not only OF
the enormous sums realized from the
great inventions Of the last half CEN
tury, but also of the large returns
yielded by things apparently trifiing
which have struck the public fancy or
met public need. The toy called the
returning ball, a small ball attached
to an elastic string, is said to have
produced Q profit of $4,000 q year;
the rubber tip on lead pencils has
yielded q competence to the inventor;
more than 81, 900, ZOO has been earned
by the gimlet-point screw, the inventor
of which was so poor that he trudged
on foot from Philadelphia to Washing
ton to get his patent; the roller skate
has yielded 81, 900, 900 after the patentee
spent 1925, 200 in England fighting in
fringements; the dancing Jim Crow is
set down for $4,000, and the copper
tip for children's shoes at s2,O'0, 900;
the spring window roller pays $l0O, 600
year, the needle threader $40, 900 q
year; from the drive well $1,000, 600
has been realized; the stylographic
pen is credited with $4,000 year;
and the egg beater, the rubber stamp,
and the marking pen for shading diff
ferent colors with large sums. These
are only few examples among humid
reds that might be cited. No wonder
inventors are hopeful when they reflect
that comfort for life and fortune for
their children may come from single
fortunate idea"

The man who boasts that he takes no
interest in politics thereby admits that
he is not a good citizen. 1t is the duty
OF every citizen to take an interest in
politics, not as an office-seeker, but as
an intelligent and conscientious stu
dent of the issues which involve the
policy and the welfare OF the country.
The man who has nothing to do with
politics has no right to complain if
the government is not wisely conduct
ed, and if there are faults of legisla-
tion and administr alton, he is partly
to blame for them.

The Risk of Mining.

liz AhoA VI NAssss"Bs
"Nothing venture, nothing have" is
an ada peculiarly applicable to min
ing investments as we'll ss any other
class Of investment that promise larger
returns than the low rate of interest
now paid by savings baaks, govern
msnt bonds, bonds and mortgages or
other so-called sure Investments. Yet
the risks in mining investments, when
intelligently selected, are not as great
as the risks in different manufacturing
and mercantile pursuits, while the op-
portunities for large profits are hun
dred fold greater. 1t would be folly
to assert that any mining investment
is absolutely sure, because no man,
however expert in mining, knows what
is in the earth. Many mine that
seemed to be bonanza when first
opened up has proven failure in its
later development, while many others,
with little promise at their inception,
have proven bonanzas.
A notable instance Of this is the
United Verds of Arizona. This is one
of the richest mines in the world, but
it was reported unfavorably on by
several experts prior to its purchase
by Senator w. A. Clark. Other great
producing mines have had like his
tory. Ask the thousa ands of investors
who participate in the $l75, 200, 900
dividends of last month-an average
of S12 for each family in the United
States-what their opinion of invest
ments in the corporations paying this
vast amount is, and their answers
would be favorable. On the other
hand, ask of the many thousands in-
yesting in other corporations that paid
no dividends and the answer would be
unfavorable. Both classes have risked
their money in investments; the former
has received satisfactory returns in the
form OF earnings, and the latter has
received nothing. Yet the turning OF
another year may reverse the order,
and those diss atisfed in 1900 may be
satisfied in 1901, and vice versa.
The worlds progress is due far more
to those who take speculative risks
than to those who shrink from every
proposition involving them. All in
dustrial, mercantile. manufacturing
and transportation enterprises are sub
ject to losses in a thousand ways, yet
in spite of this the records show that
losses in legitimate mining investments
are less than so per cent, while in or
binary mercantile and manufacturing
pursuits, which are by many termed
non-speculative, the percentage OF loss
is over 95 per cent. This demonstrates
to reasonable certainty that mining
properly conducted is one of the safest
investments at the present time. And
an attractive feature is that mining is
speculative to the extent that ten feet
additional sunk in the shaft, or an
other foot of tunnel driven, may strike
a bonanza of rich ore and Immediately
increase the profits of every stock
holder in the mine.
The chances of absolute loss in any
legitimate mining proposition honestly
conducted and intelligently managed,
should be small. The opportunities
offered for large profits are great. In
mining as in every other investment
where more than usual rates of interest
are desired, the old adage can be relied
upon with reasonable safety: ''Nothing
venture, nothing have. mining Re-
cord.
