WEALTH COMES FROM MINES
Permanent wealth comes from the mines. There is
always a ready market for gold. No salesmen are re-!
quired to dispose of the product of these mines.
Gold strikes have been the magnet that have popula
ted the wild areas of the world Torrid heat nor Arctic
cold will prevent stampedes to new gold discoveries. Tales
of gold start rushes today as they have for centuries past.
The United States is so rick right now and money of
the greenback variety is so plentiful that the gold, silver,
copper, lead and zinc mines are forgotten by many in the
humdrum activities of everyday life. Present-day pros
perity is based largely on credit. The best evidence of
this is the New York Stock Exchange where brokers have
borrowed almost $4,000,000,000 to keep the market boom
ing. The end of this fictitious prosperity is in sight and
with a return of normality there will "be a mining boom
to compare with the present stock market boom. Gold is
going to have a greater purchasing power.
A hunk of Cripple Creek high-grade ore has just
brought about the return of two pioneers of that district
from Nevada, says the Denver Mining Record. If that
piece of bonanza had been from Alaska, Siberia or from
Australia, Al Meyers and his partner would have journey
ed to its source and would have developed the property
from which it came, just as they are going to do in the
Colorado camp.
From all parts of the world come the fortune-seekers
to the Klondike, Alaska, to Cripple Creek, to Goldfield and
to all new gold areas. A San Juan prospector kept his
rich gold strike a secret for 20 years. At last he secured
a lease on the property and is now taking out his fortune.
Just a few weeks ago he landed a $50,000 gold shipment
at the big mill at Colorado Springs. Those golden dollars,
new wealth right out of the ground, with millions of other
dollars from the mnes, are speeding up all varieties of
business particularly the mining business’. Nothing can
beat gold mining as a permanent wealth-producer.
We can readily believe the report that Rev. Jordan of
Georgia, charged with having five living wives who will
appear at his trial, is in “a highly nervous condition.”
A press dispatch refers to “Miss Elaine Wilcox who
suddenly married Prince Gialna Gadschalchi,” but fails to
state how suddenly she learned how to pronounce her new
name.
