WHAT IS NEEDED
TO HELP MINING
Troublesome Question Is Be-
ing Asked Everywhere
Over Mineral West.
INDUSTRY IS LAGGlNG
Present Conditions Are Due
Largely to Abuses of
Boom Times.

There Is no denying the fact chat the
western mining industry Is IN the strong
est Yet weakest position OF Ito history
strongest because all the big organtsa-
tons arc producing the largest tonnage
and making the greatest earnings OF
their history, aud weakest because there
are practically no new fields being
fina ncing OF tho prospect. There appears
70 be reason. therefore for the frequent
1y heard question as TO whether or not
there is to be q revival Of mining In the
west, and Utah In particular. and how,
When times We're good during the boom
% few years ago, and everyone had
plenty ~ money, almost anyone could
organize a mining company upon any
sort of a piece OF mining property. wheth-
er he owned the ground or not, and what
is more, he succeeded in financing his
organization without rreaf difficulty
