SAN FRANCISCO, AND MINING *
“San Francisco owes her prosperity to the mines of
California and Nevada. The rapid growth in a commer
cial way is due in a great measure to them. Depopulation
would ensue were these mineral resources removed,”
writes B. R. Lloyd in “Lights and Shades of San Francis
co/' published in 1876. Continuing, he says: The beauti
ful mansions that ornament the residence part of the city
are the offspring of stock speculations The staunch busi
ness blocks that greet the eye at every turn stand as
monuments to successful ventures in this line. An idea
of the magnitude of the stock business is suggested by the
number of men engaged in the brokerage busi ness. More
than 300 such offices exist in San Francisco.”
That mining is still an important part of the commer
cial life of San Francisco is being shown by the renewed
activity on the San Francisco Mining Exchange and the
importance of new mining strikes in California and Neva
da. Since the first of the year there has been greater
activity in mining than has been demonstrated in a num
ber of years, reports Finance & Trade.
Who remembers that famous remark when the Gov
ernor of North Carolina haid to the Governor of South
Carolina, “Its time to take another drink.”
FATHER GLOOM
Dost thou knowest that it be Friday 13th today?
Then bewarest thou, shouldst thou chanceth to walk upon
any ice, if there be any. For doth not the superstitious j
believeth that it is an ill-omen when Friday falleth on the
13th?
The man who buys speculative stocks knows that he;
is taking chances. If he did not want to take the chances
involved he would buy government bonds. But he is seek-1
mg large profits from his investment and his money us-;
"Hally goes into mining securities to develop underground
opportunities.
It doesn’t matter so much which side of the fence a
fellow gets on so long as he doesn’t straddle it
._i
Shipping ore from a bonanza ore body is one of the
surest routes to fortune.
Isn’t it about time for another Army or Navy stormy
petrel to cut loose?
If long hair does come back it will be easie/ to get
hold of to pull out of the gravy. *
There is no business that is cleaner than the mining
business.
