repeatedly called attention to the fact
that any attempt to obtain exact

guesswork. and there is no evidence
to the contrary, rs far as the efforts

cerned. Indeed there is reason to
believe that the figures do not even

duction. A few days before the close

Speaking of the former discredit II
Of mining securities In the east, and
the present tendency toward favor,
the New York Commercial says !:
"Some things transpiring some time
ago--just what and just when It is
not necessary to recount here-dis.
credited mining properties as q
form Of Investment with the public
east Of the Mississippi river. In
New York city especially there has
been noticeable a quite general dis.
position to laugh down any mining
proposition" that might chance to
get presented here. That has, Of
course, reflected unjustly on
numerous legitimate and profitable
mining enterprises, aud one of it's
effects hss naturally been to restrict
active dealings In mining shares
largely to the mining areas and the
cities contiguous to them One
effort after another to establish a
mining exchange In New York has
failed. Boston. to be sure, has never
stood wholly aloof from the business,
but the general eastern public has es-
chewed mining Investments.
'There is no substantial reason
for It, aud most hopeful sign at the
opening Of the new year is the in
creasins number of solid, reputable
hrms that are now making special

tion. He dealt out few meaning
less platitudes about saving the for
ests from devastation, but carefully
avoided making any mention Of the
real issue involved; that those on the
outside who are most familiar with
the transactions declare that it is q
gigantic graft. It 10 generally be-
lieved that these forest reserves are
created for two selfish purposes; first
that the scrip dealers can make
clean up by exchanging worthless
lands bought from the state for lieu
land scrip, and second, that the ex-
tensive lumber companies can ex-
change their logged of land for ver-
gin forests. In known instances
reserves have been thrown open when
he big dealers are ready to lay their
scrip, shutting out the individual
locator. aud 1t ia believed that this
will be the case In eastern Oregon.
