PUBLIC CONFIDENCE.

Properly promoted mining ven lures do not have to resort to ex travagant claims in order to secure capital. The public knows that there is a speculative element in mining just as in any other line of business, even farming. It has been only short time since the bubble of a great agricultural ven ture in Indiana burst. an extensive banking system in Georgia went on the rocks of bankruptcy. and a big init to a receivership; but those is plated failures, notwithstanding their magnitude have not shaken the confidence of conservative bank CTS. business men or investors. Neither does an occasional mining failure cast it's reflection upon the whole mining industry says the Mining Congress Journal.
 "In every line of business activity there will spring up here and there an unprincipled promoter who ex- poets to get "boob money" The men who stand behind the program and policies of the mining industry are men of high caliber They are vitally interested in protecting the public against such promoters of mining ventures, just as the bank CTS and business men of the nation are anxious to thwart get rich quick schemes in the banking anl com mercial fields Therefore, knowl- edge concerning the men who are backing any mining venture, is far safer guarantee against fraudu- lent scheme than could possibly be afforded by "blue-sky" laws. how ever sanely and honestly admin istered.

NOME INVITES LINDBERGH

Nome Igloo No. 1, Pioneers of Alaska Wednesday night, passed a motion unanimously that Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh be invited to make a flight to Nome as soon as practicable. We are glad to see the Pioneers do this and hope that they will be successful in attract ing Colonel Lindbergh's attention. We also believe that the Chamber of Commerce should follow suit, with other organizations, in this to Nome and all Alaska if this be- came a reality.
