MORE INFORMATION
 IS BADLY NEEDED

The Mining Review, published at Prescott, voices the sentiment of the general public-sbose whosre inclined to honest methods in mining-and adopt. tho thought promulgated by the PRosPEcToR several months since. That paper says;
 "The welfare of a mining com munity is dependent, to large de gree, on the extent and accuracy "f the information regardi miner re- sources and de, elopment that is avail able to the public. Unfortunately, it too frequently happens that the min ing men who are most willing to take the public into their confidence on these subjects are the ones whose tes- timony is least valuable. while those who would be listened to with resp ct ard credence carefully conceal their knowledge from the public. What i' most urgently needed in Arizona to day is accurate and dependable infor- nation in regard to mining properties in all stages of development There has been too much exagerstion on the one hand, and too great reticence on the other, in reference to the condi- ton in our mines. The Mining Re view could cite more than once in stance where the existence of valuable ore bodies, sufficient in extent to in sure the success of the mining venture involved, has been studiously con- cealed even from the stockholders whose money was being used ;n de- velopment work; and this with no purpose to defraud or manipulate stock values. It is conceivable tha: a superintendent in charge of a prop erty should hesitate to report rich strikes until he is assured of their ex- tent and permanence. But these points being settled to his satisfaction. he is withholding news of practical value to the mining community in general when he declines to admit the public to share in his confidence"
