MINING INVESTORS.

1t is frequently not the fault of
the mines that investors in their
stock lose money and confidence, 1t
is the haphazard nature of the in
vestors themselves, says the State
Mining Journal.
Mining is a science and a sealed
book to the average city man. If it
were a business he were at all ac-
quainted with he would want to see
the amount OF stock or machinery on
hand and the funds at the disposal
of the company duly accredited by
an auditor before he invested, but
because he knows nothing of min
ing he is either wholly sceptical or
wholly credulous. On the same hand
he is ready to doubt the ore re-
turns, on the other hand he will take
the man on the streets word with
alacrity, and go and invest his
money without verifying his state
ment. e.A q $685.
1t is impossibele for every man
who wishes to make an investment
to visit the particular hole in the
ground out of which the metal is
being taken or Is to be taken, but
before he purchases it is always open
to him to find out at least approx
mately what chances the company
has of making good. 1t is because
this is SO seldom done that mining
is condemned indiscriminately.
Not even the best posted mining
men in a camp can tell with absO-
lutte the richness or barren
ness of a vein, and therefore if a
property does not pay dividends as
fast or as big as was at first hoped,
it is not necessary to believe that
the management was deliberately
trying to deceive the investing public.
The majority of mining men in
charge of properties today are de-
veloping with the one idea of getting
the metal out of the ground as
economically as possible. They are
there to get full value out of what
they control.

At the home of her parents in East
Ely, Wednesday evening Miss Laura
Henrietta, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Lewis Larsen became the bride of
Albert Scowcroft, of Ogden. The
wedding was one of the prettiest of
the season and was solemnied by
Rev. s. c. Gilman, of the East Ely
Presbyterian church. Mrs. Helen
Jones was the bridesmaid and Bar
ney Hedges, the groom's best man.
Following the ceremony the young
couple received the congratulations
and best wishes of the numerous
relatives and friends present. Mr..
and Mrs. Scowcroft left the morning
following the wedding, for their
future home in Ogden.
The following from the Polo (Ill.)
Press will be read with interest by
the many friends of the bride in the
district:
Monday morning, June 2S, 1909,
at half past eight O'Clock at the
church of Our Lady of Lourdes in
Chicago, James Hackett and Miss
Elizabeth Naylon were united in the
holy bonds of matrimony by the Rev.
Father j. s. Finn, who was formerly
pastor of st. Marys church in Polo.
Miss Augusta Naylon, John Hackett
and Peter Gatz of this city and Miss
Lillian Naylon of Chicago witnessed
the ceremony. After the ceremony
Mr.. and Mrs. Hackett left for Milwau-
kee. They will return to Polo, prob
ably today wednesday, and will go
to housekeeping in a few weeks.
Mr.. Hackett is the son of Mrs.
Mary Hackett of this city. For six
or seven years he has been associated
with his uncle, Maurice Herbert, Jr.,
in the elevator business in Polo. He
has proved himself honorable in all
his business dealings and is a young
man of excellent habits. Mrs. Hack
EFT is a daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Martin Naylon of Polo. She was
born and reared in Polo where she
is generally known and loved. For
more than two years past she had
been in Ely, New, where she was as

dry goods business. Her many friends

AMERICAN TRADE IN CHILE.

Consul Alfred A. Winslow of Val
.paraiso, reports as follows concern
ing the desire of Chileans to get into
closer commercial relationship with
the United States and the benefits
which would accrue to both coun-
tries from a more direct cultivation
by American business interests of
such relations:
An extract from Ell Murcurio, the
leading daily of Valparaiso, with a
translation thereof, is herewith
transmitted. The quickest commune
cation between this part of Chile
and the United States, of which the
article treats, meets with general
approval and will be of great benefit
to the business interests Of both
countries. The article expresses we'll
the real attitude of the Chileans to-
ward the United States. They wish
to get in closer touch with and to
know more about the American peo-
pie and their methods. This should
be encouraged by American interests
and the United States should join in
the improvement of the service. Ac-
cording to the present arrangement,
there is a fast steamer each fort
night only, but in order to get the
greatest good out of the service
there should be weekly sailings.
Now is the time to act in the mat
ter, for the tide is turning strongly
toward American interests, and
everything possible should be done
to encourage it. Chile takes $780,
000,O 0O worth of manufactured pro-
ducts yearly, and American interests
instead OF about 10 per cent, as at
present. The following Is a transla-
ton of that portion of the article
from Ell Mercurio which refers to
the United States:
ION March 10th. the steamer ,Orita
which has Just arrived on its return
trip from Europe. continued its voy-
age to the port of Callao, Peru. This
fact, which passed unnoticed at the
time on account of the national cleo
tions, is n of great Importance to
u country's progress. The Orita
begins the new service which brings
us nearer the United States, putting
us within eighteen days of New York
This combination is oil prime impor-
lance to Chile, as 1t brings us nearer
to the colossal forcal of civilization
and commerce, the United States.
We shall now be able to effect bust
ness in a much shorter time and. the
voyage will be much cheaper and
much more agreeable for the travel
er, and will not require thirty-five
days as before. A merchant may
now spend a short vacation In going
to the United States to transact bust
ness and acquaint himself with the
country, which is an emporium of
wealth and civilization. Being
brought into closer contact with
these great centers of modern life is
certainly a great advantage to a
country like ours, situated as 1t is
SO far from the world movement"

British Investments in Mexico, ac-
cording to a recent London estimate
which must be deemed, fairly ac-
curate, aggregate the large sum of
1915, 600, 900. OF this amount over
$357,O00,0 900 is represented by gov
eminent bonds. The remainder con
sists of railway and other miscellan-
neous securities. AS a rule Mexican
railways do not appear to have been
so built and managed as to prove
profitable investments. British in
vestors have done better in Brazil
and Argentina, where their invest
ments are equally as large and more
profitable. The great extent to which
European capital has been staked in
the development of the Latin States
of America should serve to open the
eyes of the people of the United
States to the advantages as we'll as
the necessity of establishing closer
trade relations with all the south
ern Republics of the continent. There
should be commercial as we'll as
political fraternity. Whilst we
hold them at arms length by un-
friendly tariffs, the European nations
profit by our neglect.

1t is estimated that something like
$215, 100000 will be disbursed by
railroads and industrial corporations
generally throughout the United
States in July interests and dividends
This will be an increase of $25, 00O,-
900 over last : July. This means
business" 1t can't mean any thing
else. By no sort of logic, fair or
foul, can an addition of 5000, 900
to the midsummer distribution of
corporate profits be construed into
anything but clear proof of return
ing prosperity. Here and there an
unwise management might endeavor
to use money for dividends that
ought 10 be used for other purposes.
In occasional instances a crooked
management might be concerting a
portion of its working capital into a
fraudulent distribution of profits"
But when a great industrial body in
creases it's dividend payments to the
tune of $25, 0O0,0 900 there is no as
putting the evidence of substantial
revival.

Secretary Wilson believes that the
high prices of foodstuffs is largely
due to the scarcity of farm hands.
If this be the correct explanation it
Is almost certain that prices will keep
on soaring, because the yeomanry are
each year becoming less and less in

One great drawback in the develop

One great drawback in the develop
ment of California has been the cost
of the. supply of fuel. Coal is a
necessity of industrial growth. The
finding of proteleum was a godsend.
Forty-five million barrels were pro-
duced in 1908, mainly used for the
development of steam power at an
average cost of so cents a barrel.
But oil. cannot be made to take the
place of coal for a great variety of
purposes. The Californians have
been obliged to import coal form
sources of supply as far off as Japan,
Wales, Australia and India, and pay
a tariff on their imports in the bar
gain. There is, however, at last a
prospect of immediate and continu-
ing relief. Investigation shows that
there are vast quantities of hard and
soft coal in Alaska. Thirteen hun

COMMISSIONERS
County Commissioners Of Idaho Meet
at the Capitol and Discuss
Public Affairs.

Boise, Idaho, Dec. 22.-The con-
vention of County Commissioners,
called by Governor Brady, and held
last week, was productive of good
results. Much interest was mani
tested. Every county in the state
was represented, except two, and
nearly ali counties by all three of
their Commissioners.
1t was a strong body of men that
attended this Commissioners con-
ventlon. 1t was evident that in
most cases the counties select strong
men to discharge the Important
duties of County Commissioner. In
addition to their natural ability.
these men came into close touch
with the affairs of the state as well
as the affairs of the county. 1t was
therefore. a practical body of men
assembled to consider practical sub.
jects.
Besides general exchange Of
views, many subjects were discussed
that have proven more or less en-
