THE INFLUENCE OF PUBLICITY.

There would seem to be less and
less attention shown the mining in
dustry by papers remote from the
mines. The home local paper is sell
dom quoted. The news Of any find
or development going out in the form
terest Is taken because the thrill is
wanting, the business dropping down
to sober serious seeking for substan-
tial gain. This Is not considered as
lack of interest. The larger proper
ties don't care to disclose their
success or failures. They seem en-
tirely Indifferent to public attention,
and only by the most persistent or
insistent questioning will they di-
vulge what is going on. This reti-
cence is growing and explains in a
measure the little knowledge leaking
to the public through the papers
Were all anxious to inform the pub
lie Of what is going on, every paper
in a mining town would be too small
to convey all the intelligence offered
for publication. Most OF the big
strikes are gotten hold Of by the
papers. These reawaken interest in
mining and hold the attention for a
time.
OF course 1t is helpful to get all
that Is going on in mining district.
Not to do that shows lack OF bus
mess sagacity. The small mine with
a local owner in possession and little
capital should tell the public Of every
important move. Not to do that will
mean that he does not care to sell
or seeks no aid. In not caring to sell
1t is perfectly right to keep quiet
about it. But some hesitate to make
the fact known OF the whereabouts Of
a good property for the reason, they
say, that to peddle or cry prop
erty is to belittle it's worth. In that
case the newspaper seeks the infor-
nation and publishes what he is able
to learn either directly or through
the workers in the mine.
With the falling off in news from
the prominent districts does not mean
the lessening of developments. What
might have been a record strike in a
property that condition might remain
indefinitely 1t having become ordinary
to turn out continuously the grade OF
ore recently reported being better
than at any time in the mines his
tory. There is an instance in point
right here In Gilpin county. Tho prop
erty reported three phenomenal finds
during the year, but 1t has continued
producing uninterruptedly. simply
saving wood and saying nothing. Ask
the owners what is doing. the man
agement invariably says nothing
new" The inference is the properties
are doing well.
