Mining BANKER
REPLIES TO CRITICS

When we consider the tendency of
the average banker to keep a tight
grip on his pocketbook, and take no
chances by going into anything of a
speculative nature, it is a relief to
think of a prominent Chicago banker
who recently invested heavily in min
ing. He was severely criticized by
some of his close, conservative fellow
bankers for so rashly risking his
money, when he made the following
eloquent reply:
Throughout the Rocky Mountains,
ages agone, God builded stronger
vaults in his granite banks than ours.
He filed these vaults with gold, silver
and copper. He gave the prospector
knowledge and insight, and guided
him on his way to the door of the bank
vault. The Federal government han l.
ed him his patent title to all therein.
1t is no crime, but virtue, to enter.
With drill, blast, pick and spade, the
poor man broke the combination lock
and entered. But for him, our notes
in issue would be as the stump-tail'
currency of 1857. But for him, this
government would be bankrupt. Mines
will be producing millions in gold, sill
yer and copper in that future day when
national banks are unknown. Remem-
Der, mine is simply crop, already
raised, harvested and deposited in the
bin, or bank. You check it out at your
pleasure.
"'The wealth gathered from mines
immortalized Solomon. Mining made
Rome mistress of the world. Mining
made Great Britain the world s COM
mercial dictator. Mining made the
United States the richest country in
the world. Show me the country that
has no mines and / will show you a
people sunk in degradation of poverty,
and poverty makes towards of nations
as well as men. Mining has transform
ed more broken men into millionaires
and placed them in positions of honor
and trust than any other business.
Without the miner you would not have
a frying-pan, spoon or pin.
Eliminate the miner and you wipe out
civilization. A nations prosperity de-
pends largely upon the extent, variety
and development of its mineral re-
sourees'
To their credit be it said, there are
some bankers in the mining districts
who are venturesome enough and pro-
gressive enough to risk some of their
money in mining; to help develop the
resources with which generous nature
has blessed the favored locality
known as the Joplin region, embracing
the great zinc-lead mineral fields of
portions of Missouri, Kansas, Oklaho-
ma and Arkansas These broad minded
men are not dollar-squeezers, like some
bankers They appreciate the fact
that the great gains to be derived
from mining justify the risk of the
losses that sometimes occur in devel-
opment. Like the Chicago man refer
red to, they, too, are possessed of more
courage, more Hberality, more progress
siveness and more good sense than the
close listed money-changers who live
off others energies and others efforts,
and never take any chances. They are
real help to a community and not a
hindrance.-New York Curb.

or which would be lost under state
wide prohibition. AT the recent ses.
sion or the Legislature il was found
necessary to adopt a direct State tax,
and TO increase the excise tax % per
cent.
Would Mean $50, 900, 900 Loss.
In the event that the Anti-Saloon
League succeeds in persuading the
Legislature to try the radical de-
parture Of statewide prohibition. the
Legislature will be called upon to de-
wise new taxes to meet the loss OF he

erty owners will pay higher taxes. If.
as has been suggested, a business
tax is imposed on the merchants of
the state, it will be ultimately paid
by the consumers of goods, of whom
the farmers contribute q very large
proportion.
one or the suggestions put forward
by the Legislative Committee on Tax
alton is that this state adopt what is
known as the Ohio" ystem of listing
personal property. Under this sys-
tenn the farmers would be compelled
to give an itemized list OF all their
personal property, including live stock.
implements, machinery, tools. furni-
ture, carriages, etc, ETC., and would
therefore be called upon to paw more
personal taxes than under present con.
ditions. 1t was the belief on the part
OF the farmers that the taxation clause
OF the proposed Constitution would
permit of the adoption OF the listing"
system that led TO the Overwhelming
defeat OF that measure.
Who Will Pay Deficit?
The prohibition theory is that laws
forbidding the manufacture and sale
OF liquors prevent their use. But all
experience under prohibitory laws
show that the consumption of LIQUOR
remains about the same, the only DIFF
ference being that alcoholic beverages
are shipped into the dry territory from
wet States, or else the demand is met
by the Illicit manufacture and sale o;
The production OF ~intoxicat-
Ing drinks. such as hard cider. wine.

The net result OF prohibition in this
State would therefore be-the loss OF
80. 600 900 annual revenues, and no ma
decrease in the use OF liquors.
