John Hayes Hamond, the noted ex-

ing in a New York paper as follows:
"The possibilities of the mining in
dustry are better appreciated every
year, as the actual returns secured
from prior operations demonstrate tho
prOfitableness Of the venture. Today
greater care than was formerly the
case is exercised in choosing. proper
ties for development, go that the risk
involved may be reduced to a mini
mum; and mining engineers have
more regard for the commercial as
poets of mining than heretofore They
are LEARNING to discriminate between
the so-called 'gilt-edge' mining propo-
sition and one Of a more speculative
character. ~
"In the former class of mining the
expert aims to be assured of the GER
tainty Of ;, the capital invested being
returned with a reasonable rate of in
terest. In mines belonging to the spec
ulative class, there is, of course, great
er risk Of dosing the capital invested,
but far greater returns in the way Of
profit in case the investment turns out
favorably.
Either Of these classes Of mining ID
