Is 110 doubt hut whit both obNrivatloii

.nl tlieieon, tliat it In a wntse 111. ill UNrlrNs

times yeais, in an tlloit to "tloat a proposi
tlon," vvl.kli means to senile a hi", piete of,
ol money all at oiue, so that e.Meuslv e, e.v
pensive wurU i.iii be M.itttd at oiue.
The surest and, perhaps, the best method,
Is to start out hi a small way, piovr the
worth ol the proprtty and then stand pat
lor reasonably advantageous trims In
dealing with the capitalist.
THIS U the Impudent attitude assumed
hy the Haker City Republican on a sub
ject of local Interest: " This week twelve
letters have been leceived at tills office
fiom men who own stoik in as many
mines in this district. These men have
subscribed for the paper and state that
they desiie to know what work, it any,
is belnt done on these ptoperlles. Hut
when we go to the superintendent and
ask th.it which the stockholders in the
east want tn know, the Invariable answer
comes, 'we do not w mt our mine to get
into thf papers.' There can be nothing
amiss about stating f ids alittit mining
properiies III it is, -limit the .vorkings of
the mine, and for the benefit of tho-.e who
hive a right to know, we shall make the
Inquiries, ami any manager of such prop
erties who reluses to give the Information
his eastern stockholders sli ill kno.vlhit
fad."
In the lirsl pine, the Republic, 'in didn't
recrlve thrive letters In one week from
eastern stockholders in Oregon mines, ,
as Id ig for Information. That is merely
,-nintmdiktorv bluff to attract the alien-'
ti unit mine in lungers. No wonder a repre- i
sentntivr nl suilia paper can get on In-'
foriii'ition Irom mining men, as its columns
d'ty .itier d iy priul-iims.
I or lhr heuetit ol the crall, Till: MINI l( J
will here state tliat it pursues a diametric-'
ally npiiisiir course, which is proving to
be a suuessful svstem as lis columns'
demonstrate. Oci.isionally a letter is re
Ceived from Nome eastern j-iy wanting in
formallou regarding some mine. The
iuv ill iblr trpl is to the rlfect til it this is
a nrwspiprr meielv ; il a report on the
piopeily is wauled, lie can sriure it by
paving 1 nulling engineer inr ins eivurs.
I iirthrimoii', in looking for mining news
rrpiesriilalUrs ol this paper do not go
around lriug to prv iutu private business
alfaiis. .Mining men hnrabouts ircogule
this 10 hr .1 l.-Kt, and as a result thry are I
ever iniirteoiis and in nine cases out of trn i
willliiglv give auv iiiforiiiatiou of public
iuirirst asUrd lot. Newspaper men should i
displ.iv a tr ice nl lOiniiinu srusr and tact, i
