There are scores of good mines in
the county, now idle, that could be
worked under the leasing system, II
the owners of same would put the
shaft in such shape that they could
be examined by those seeking to
mine. In these properties are large
bodies of payable ore. but most OF
the workings are In such shape that
the small operator is unable to stan6
the expense Of cleaning them out. A
little more cooperation between the
mine owner and small operator or
