ONE OP THE MOST SUCCESSFUL MINE OPERATORS IN THE WEST
HAS RECENTLY TRULY SAID:
"The time to make investment is while the enterprise is shaping itself, not after it has reached its perfected
form. It is hard to make men understand that this, the formative period of an enterprise is the ground floor
period, where all the big money is made. The mistake men make in gold mining investments is in waiting for a
dead sure thing. He who does this will have to pay dollar for dollar for everything he gets. You can buy gold
dollars for one hundred cents, but there is no profit in the investment. .
"The men who make big money in every great enterprise are those who come in at the beginning. The
history of every great enterprise pioves this, and gold mining is no exception. When Granite Mountain was first
put on the St. Louis market it sold for io cents. In six months it rose to 10 a share, and in two years reached
$7$. It made for the holders a hundred vast fortunes, and paid more that $1 j.ooo.ooo in dividends. In 1866
Union Consolidated sold for 9 cents, and within the year rose to $ 10. Crown Point, in 1872, reached 18.75 a
share and paid in dividends over $1 1,000,000, and Consolidated Virginia passed in a single year from 1 1 cents to
65. In Colorado today there are hundreds of like instances. Isabella rose in three days from jo cents to $ 1.80,
and many a man today is happy in the fortunes it brought him. Gold Coin was chasing for buyers at 7 cents two
years ago, today it is worth $$. Portland, Moon-Anchor and a dozen others are instances of fortunes made, not
by the men who went in when the enterpris was completed, when the values were in sight, when there was a
'dead sure thing' all around. It was the ground floor man the man who went in at the beginning that made the
money in all these movements is making the money today."
