MINING IN 1880

OO'o
 We are all prone to compare our present with the very best in our past; prone to think ev- cry setback a major one. Re- gently, a man who had been in the habit of earning and spend ing a hundred thousand every y.ar found himself forced to accept and live upon one-quart- CT of that amount. He saw .lothing short of penury in $25,OOO and to avoid it took his life. To many, $25, ,00O is a gigantic sum. It certainly can bring moderate comfort and luxury. It's all in the state of mind.
 In 1928, the mining industry was healthy, happy and reason ably prosperous In 1929, that Industry suddenly acquired production climbed We were on the crest of the wave. But 1880 was just around the cor Ter, standing with a sharp pin all ready for our beautiful bal lOLn: and now 1880 has passed by us, and as we inventory the result we pull a long face and .oin the great procession of in dustry hoWlers and mOOdily tell the world that 1880 "did wrong by our Nell"
 That is true, in a degree. But if 1929, with it's false promise, had not heaped our hands full uf good things, 1930 would not have had so black an eye, for 'ts record compares most fla 7orably with 1928 when none cf us felt we could not go for forward becansc our shoes were a bit worn at the heel.
 All of us would like to see mining on the boom. When there is an active demand for minerals, there is great pros perity abroad. But because we
