gregates the magnificent total OF ovel
s350,000,0O0. Womaek, the prospector
transformed a COW pasture into the
worlds greatest gold camp and made
| it possible for other poor men TO be-
come millionaires. Stratton. the car
penter, and Burns, the plumber, by
their discovery of the independence
and Portland mines added millions 10
their wealth and the wealth OF the
nation, built up cities and made pos
.ible the cultivation of q vast farm
ing acreage which could not be pro-
fitably titled without the miners gold.
Harry Stimler and Jim Butler, pros
pectors, put Goldfield and Tonopah on
the map and added millions to Nevda's
grand record as wealth producer.
Joe Nenzel did the same through his
discovery of the riches of the camp
of Rochester in the same state. Phil
ORourke and Noah Kellogg and a
burro, all three prospectors. as decided
by the court, discovered the famous
Bunker Hill & Sullivan mine in the
Occur d'Alenes of Idaho, which has
paid to stockholders $17,590,0O0 in d.
vidends. The court decided that the
owners of the burro were entitled to
one-third interest in the property,
inasmuch as the burro, being tied to a
tree, became impatient and paved the
ground, thus disclosing the famous
lode from which the bulk of the pro-
duction of the Bunker Hill & Sullivan
mine has since been taken.
The mining history of the Rocky
mountain country is filled with ro-
nance of mine discoveries. The pros
pector put every mine, every mining
camp and every western city on the
map in the first instance. He knows
nothing about gambling in mining
shares but he makes possible the paper
certificates which hold the daily at
tention of thousands of brokers, in
vestors and spectators throughout the
nation. So why not encourage the
and why not encourage the
honest mining promoter in his effort
to make a mine out Of the prospector's
discovery?

This is the prospector's busy season.
New mines are being discovered and
old mines, improbable under former
conditions, are being opened up. High
metal prices and improved metallurg!-
cal practice are two factors that are
doing more than anything else to put
mining on a safer basis. The pros
pector and his prospect are entitled to
more consideration from capital than
they are now receiving. Big mining in
terests and the numerous brokerage
houses dealing in mining shares seem
prone to forget that every mine was
once prospect. Dealing principally
in listed dividend paying stocks they
are often too quick to condemn the
little fellow raising funds to develop
some prospect mining territory :nto a
producer. They fail to realize that if
the mining industry is to grow. pros
poets must be developed. If TIL, big
dividend paying mining stocks in
which they are trading each day had
not been brought from the prospect
stage into the dividend class through
the expenditure of capital, thousands
of investors would still be loaning
their money on bonds and drawing
down per cent or per cent interest

those who desire to borrow on their
