"RIsKs IN MINING INVESTMENTS"

The recent conviction of several very prominent and active mining promoters of a violation of the federal statute against fraudulent use of the mails has drawn forth flood of newspaper comment and deluge of profound dissertation upon the cupidity of promoters, the innocence of their victims, the dishonesty of some experts, the mismanagement of some managers, and the "risks in mining invest ments."
 The sapiencey of some of the observations registered has been sufficient to- arouse the proverbial equine cachinnation. The caption of this article, which is borrowed one, is a sample. If the writer knows anything about mining he should know that there are no risks in mining investments. When mining investments are made the money is paid out for the shares in mining corporations that have proved ore bodies, demonstrated by extensive development, those ore bodies carefully measured and sampled by competent experts, the value of which has been calculated accurately, together with the cost of extraction and marketing the product, with the certainty of divi- dends that will return within a reasonable time the money invested with goodly rate of interest. That is what is meant by mining
  investment" Some years ago there was purchased at $25 and $30 per share large blocks of Cananea stock as results of examinations and cal culations just such as those des- cribed in the foregoing lines. But before the ore bodies demonstrated had been explored to point where such examinations and calculations were possible there had been ex- pended hundreds of thousands of dollars in sinking shafts and win

realized $2,000,000 by speculation. They thought $3,O0O,OO0 risk they would not take. So they lost the opportunity of making $2,000,. 900 of speculative money and hay ing an investment" of $5,00O,000.
 Here is another sapient quota tiom the same source:
 It is unfortunate for the mining business that people vii allow them. selves to be blinded by visions of quick gained wealth rather than take the safe and sensible business like course of having the conditions that govern the safety of an in- vestment thoroughly examined in- to by competent persons before making heavy expenditures. There is, of course, always some risk in putting money into a new venture. Some money is necessary to demonstrate whether or not new property has ore in sufficient quan- tity, or of sufficient value, to war rant further expenditures. This risk can not we'll be avoided and investigation is the only safe course to follow.
 In the foregoing the writer does admit that "there is always some risk into putting money into a new venture" Of course there is. And there will le always. In the early stages of development, except in some few favored mines which paid from the grass roots, there have been no mines that failed to partake of that element of risk; and had there not been always daring souls ready and willing to take that risk there would have been mighty little production of precious metals. Adam Smith, Ricardo, John Stuart Mill, and other writers on economic topics have noted that fact. Writing in TAG Adam Smith observed that "while mining gold and silver had made fabulously rich some few, the losses of others balanced against the great gains of the fortunate, would, if collated and calculated venture to say, show in the in- dustry an average rate of profit no greater than that in agriculture or manufacturing" elf not verbatim the quotation is correct substanti- ally-the writer quotes from mem- ory thirty years after reading)
 Modern methods and modern machinery have cheapened greatly the cost of mining and ore reduc- tion, and have reduced to 8 mini mum the risks of speculation" in development. One of the modern methods has been the joint stock company, by operation of which the risk of speculation is scattered more widely. That evils have grown in it's application is patent Such evils can be and will be cor rected. But no correction possible will make the opening of an un- developed mine sure thing nor permanent investment.

amount of future expenditure war ranted."
 Now, there is a syllogism for you.
 The whole business of mine ex- ploration swings upon the minor premise. 'The first important step in mine making therefore, is to de- termine the size and value of the ore bodies." But that is what costs money, When you have done that your mine is made You may not need any more money at all. Some ore bodies are so rich that no fur ther expenditure is necessary. The ore buyer will sample your ores on the dump, or at the railway sta- tion, and pay you the values his sampling demonstrates. In such event the conclusion of the syllog- ism is lost. The ore may be of such grade and value that some kind of reduction plant IS neces- sary. Then the conclusion of the syllogism follows, and investiga- ton bases the amount of future ex- penditure upon the cost of the plant and setting 1t to turning out metal in paying quantities. Even then that is matter of speculation to a great extent. People part with their money-taking shares to build a mill or shelter on their faith in the assertion of one or two experts, whom they have seen never before-nor heard of-that there is in virgin ground an ore body, and that will yield results which will justify putting $50,000 to $250,000 into a mill or furnace and return them their money with good interest. Is not that most sublime exemplar of St. Paul's de- 6nition of faith as "the evidence of things unseen and the substance of things hoped for?"
 Not until the ore body is de- veloped, the reduction plant install led and in operation with divid- ends paying and a certainty of their continuing until the price of the shares will be returned with good interest on the money does a mine become a real investment Then money put into the enterprise is invested. Up to that time it is speculative purely. Even then there is yet the speculative element in the possibility of development ol more and larger ore bodies. It is reported currently that the same experts who once turned down the Creston-Colorad properties at $3,- 100000 reported favorably after. ward a payment of $5,000,000 for the same properties, which was made, on developments that had occurred between the two examina. tions, several years apart, with the mill running constantly ad interim and crushing ore at the rate of 17C tons daily. Had the people who refused the property at $3.000.00C

zes, running tunnels, drifts and galleries, and driving stopes and upraises. Where did all that money come from? From people who bought the stock at $2 or $3 per share on the faith that the ex- penditure of their money iudicious- ly applied would open and expose such ore bodies. That money was not "risked" in investment" it was 'risked" in speculation" Had the faith of those who sup. piled the money for development been ill founded, and had the ex- penditure of the money demon strated that the existence of the anticipated ore bodies was only in the imagination of the experts the shares bought at $2 or $3 would have dropped to nil instead of advancing to $25 or $30 as they did. That was the "risk" taken by the buyer of the low priced stock. As asserted hereinbefore the risk taken was the risk of speculation" l" The man who bought later as an investment the same shares at $25 took no risk because the earlier purchasers money had opened the door for investigation and calcula- tion of the exact value of ore bodies, cost of extraction and re- duction, with the certainty of dividends.
 Without the purchase of min- ing stocks by those who are willing to take the risks of speculation" there would be very few opportun- ities for those who buy shares for investment. It is not the money of those who buy mining shares for dividends that uncover bonanzas and make possible the dividends sought. They do not take the risks necessary in prospecting virgin ground and proving it valuable.
 In the light of the reflections presented read now this excerpt from one of the articles now under criticism. It is an article with the same caption that has been bor- rowed for this:
 A mine cannot be made where there is no ore; the first important step in mine making is, therefore, to determine the size and value of the ore bodies and on the result of this investigation should be based the amount of future expenditure warranted. It is right here that the "amateur mining man" is apt to make his mistake, by assuming from incomplete data that his property contains an inexhaustible supply of ore of certain value.
 There you have it: "A mine cannot be made where there is no ore"
 Of course not.
 "The first important step in mine making is, therefore, to determine the size and value of the ore bodies.' J

HOW "DABBLINGv IN SPIRITUAL. ISM AFFECTS PEOPLES .,
 LOOKS

The authority whose opinion is re- garded as the last word of psychical matters. Prof. William James of liar yard college, writes most important article on that subject for the October American Magazine. The following is a paragraph from the article which exploded a prevalent popular fallacy:
 When I heard good people say. as they often say. not without show of reason. that dabbling in such phe- nomena reduces us to a sort of jelly. disintegrates the critical faculties. liquefies the character, and makes of one a gobe-mOuche generally. I console myself by thinking of my friends Frederic Myers and Richard Hodgson. These men lived exclusively for psy- chical research, and it converted both to spiritism. Hodgson would have been man among men anywhere; but l doubt whether under any other happy, sober and righteous form of energy which his face proclaimed him in his later years. when heart and head alike were wholly satisfied by his occupation. Myers character also grew stronger in every particular for his devotion to the same inquiries. Brought up on literature and senti- ment, something of courier. passion ate. disdainful. and' impatient natur- ally. he was made over again from the day when he took up psychical re- search seriously. He became learned in science, circumspect. democratic in sympathy, .endlessly patient, and above all. happy. The fortitude of his last hours touched the heroic, so com pletely were the atrocious sufferings of his body cast into insignificance by his interest in the cause he lived for When mans pursuit gradually makes his face shine and grow handsome, you may be sure it is a worthy one Both Hodgson and Myers kept growing ever handsomer and strong looking
