the sum of - 900 on all contracting
painters and paper hangers lost by fail
ure to receive a majority vote Commits.
sioncr OF Safety Nisbct was absent and
the vote on the ordinance was tic.
Commissioners Hunter and Pitcher voted
for the measure, while Commissioners
Thum and Perkins recorded their votes
against It.
The ordinance was introduced at re-
quest of the Master Painters ns-ocn-
tion. backed by the Denver Chamber OF
Commerce and other employing associa-
tions. 1t was opposed by the Denver
Building Trades Council and the local
unions of painters and paperhangers.
The ordinance was intended to give the
larger contractors an absolute monopoly
by crushing out the small contractors or
journeymen workmen who desired to bid
upon or undertake Jobs on their own ac-
count. Therefore the building trades
unions. particularly the painters and pa
pcrhangers, feel very grateful to Com

Mining no More Gamble Than Other
 Industries

Mining has received, and is receiving considerable attention, and some which is unnecessary and unjust, but this is the case in all enterprises, but most of the censure is derived from exceed ingly unreliable sources.
 Most of the unjst criticism comes rom those wno have put little money in. took flyer" or gamble, as they flippantly say.
 Not content with gamblers luck. they decry and vilify legitimate industry one that pays more dividends than all the railroads in the country combined.
 There is absolutely no more sane req son for losing money in mining stocks or operations than in any of the so- called legitimate industries of every day life.
 Let that statement sink deep and al so please bear in mind that there are not as many failures in mining as there
Arizona republican., 1915-01-17


 are in the so so-called industries. Ac- cording to Dun or Bradstreet over 95 per cent of those who embark in busi- ness fail-not so in mining. Of course by mining we do not mean ordinary gambling; to put few dollars into shares, as flyer" as it is called. That is not mining. That is simply gambling, faro or roulette compared to that kind of investment offers much greater opportunity for profit.
 Why not look upon mining as busi- ness and give it the same scrutiny or attention that you would if you were going to invest in piece of property? ? You engage an attorney to pass upon the title, who examines the abstract. A real estate expert is called in to es- innate it's value and a number of other precautions are taken. All of which costs you at least $50 per 5000 investl ment-that is up to certain amount.
 Now how are your investments made in mining?
 You know; it's not necessary to ex- plain. You simply take the word of some smooth talking Aleck, who never saw the property. or never saw a mine for that matter, either.
 As a general outcome these peddlars of shares are seldom fortunate enough to dispose of sufficient stock to amount to anything other than pay few weeks board bill. Not enough at least to do any development work on min ing property.
 There are more failures in mining for want of funds for development work than for want of ore in the property.
 It takes money to develop a mine, a very little. if any. of the money inju- diciously and promiscuously invested in the flyer" way ever goes into de- velopment work.
 How then can you expect profits from such unbusiness like investments?
 Here's a tip:
 Investigate before you invest. If you are ill you call doctor; if in trouble, you consult a lawyer.
 Mining is blessed with men of even more brains and learning than either of these professions; and there are thousands of them-even more reliable than bank official--and none of them are in jail either-Mining World.
