SIZING UP THE SITUATION.

A gentleman recently from the east
confessed he had come west to In
vest several thousand dollars in what
ever appealed to him. He had heard
considerable concerning irrigation
projects. He thought the plan of
taking mortgage on farm by fur
nishing the farm with water very
good idea But he looked around and
pondered. To whom does the farmer
sell his products? And where does
the buyer procure his money? He in
vestigated the manufacturing side of
the subject and he was not overly
pleased at the outlook and he said
as much.
The man had heard of mining in
the state but he never gave the sub
ject much thought. He looked into
the matter and found that the only
dependable industry in the state was
that of mining. He soon came to real
ize that with the industry at it's
best mortgages on farms through
furnishing them water would prove
all right did the mines produce hand
somely. That manufacturers could not
be very we'll depended on owing to
the railroads and the competition
with eastern manufactures. With
this view of the matter. mining for
the metals appealed to him i'm
mensely, for he knew that the out
put from a metal mine, especially
gold, was producing that which en-
abled the purchase of what ever one
pleased or could invest the surplus
from which a return might be ex-
pected.
With mining dormant, the west had
not much chance with the east The
east would have remained master of
the situation did not the mines Of
the west offer something that the
east lacked. The gold and silver
mines producing their stores was a
permanent addition to the wealth Of
the country. The agriculturalist dealt
in ephemeral things lasting but a day
while the manufacturer was not far
removed from such a condition. The
mines were the real creators of the
wealth, and having arrived at this
decision the easterner set about find
ing wealth producer in these hills.
He was surprised that SO few real
lied the Importance OF the industry.
He knew opportunities were not want
ing, then why were not more en-
gagged? 1t dawned upon him that most
invested like taking chance in a
lottery. They failed to grasp the bus
mess part Of the deal. 1t was hap
hazard. Amy hole in the ground was
as likely to produce as any property
on the hill.
Someone coached the gentleman in
question and before he made his in
vestment he saw the under ground
Of many claims in company with n
good mining engineer. II he does
not realize on his investment 1t will
be due to something unforeseen. for
his choice was an excellent one and
II all goes well he will have a bus
iness paying him better than would
the best bank in the country.
