ENGLISHMAN WON STUPENDOUS
MINERAL WEALTH FIGHT
ING GREAT ODDS
Mining has been the foundation
of the world’s wealth from the be
ginning of time. The governments
rich in mineral have always been
the richest and strongest govern
ments on earth. Mining is the only
business on this earth that increas
es the wealth of the world without
infringing on the rights of others.
The man who produces gold, sil
ver and copper is creating the raw
material of money; every stroke of
his pick adds to the wealth of every
man’s business in the world. Min
ing has always been the quick road
to fortune.
I have made a study of this ques
tion and my investigations show
that mining has always offered
greater inducements than any
business in the world, to make
quick and great wealth. This inves
tigation shows that farming is
more risky than mining; that 32
percent more people lose money
and fail in mercantile business
than in mining; that 41 percent
more people lose money and fail in
manufacturing business than in
mining; that 17 percent more peo
ple lose money and fail in banking
than mining; and that more peo
ple lose money and fail proportion
ately in any of the professions than
in mining.
Mining is the backbone of all
wealth and the spinal column of
al1 T. T know a score and a
half of men and women who a few
years ago invested in a mining com
pany, and some of them only a
small amount, because that was all
they had to invest. These people
have cleared anywhere from $25,
000 to $550,000. Often $500
in a good mining stock will pay the
fortunate holder $100,000 more
than it could possibly pay him if
invested in any other securities. So
1 say that I believe investing money
in good mining stock is the most
profitable investment, and very
much the safest. Why safe? Be
cause the security is the ore itself
the raw material of money.

j BELFAST, Dec., 9, (ff)—County
'Clare has a bonny little island in its
bounds which has become a debt
ors paradise. The sole communica
tion with the island, where several
[families live, is by small boats on
[which court messengers are not ac
cepted as passengers.
District Justice Gleeson has rul
ed that the sheriff must invoke the
aid of a destroyer to gain access to
the community. But since Ireland
has no destroyers the sheriff is
| stumped.
