List of
letters to miners
"Dear Editors
In behalf of the people of this rich mining region,
I hail with
peculiar satisfaction
the estab!ishment of a press among us. Etc.
Some peonle regard such ani enterprise
at the pfesent time as
premature, but im a country like ours, where everything is con
ducted with railroad speed, where towns and cities grow up in
a few weeks, it is difficult to tell what the future may develop,
or what enterprise may be called premature,
ete.
The: prosperity
of this community depends upom its resources which are exhaust—
able.
By the invention of useful implemenitts of the soil and
economy in the various operations of tillage, the scientific
agriculture of the present day is as much supprior to that of
former times as the highly improved plough to loosen the Sea
In ‘ike manner improvements may be made in mining, and it is the
duty of all who have made discoveries or improvement, to make
them nub'ic.
\
Within
a few months important improvements and dis-—
coveries have been made in this vicinity which have contributed
greatly to the vroverty of the city.
I have conversed with miners
why vrofassed to have imnortant discoveries in saving gold, which
they kent secret.
This is not right.
The gold mines are the
bases of our nrosperity but the continuance of that prosperity
devends unon improved economical methods of separating it from
the earth or cuartz as it becomes less abundant.
