in the case of mining more than made up by the necessity for constant skill, economy and intelligent action on the part_of the mine -manager; then, too, the element of chance enters. largely into all underground mining, and adverse but unavoidable circumstances may upset the best-plans, In every other line of business the standard is fixed. Investors, owners and managers are thrown together and there is a constant interchange of information. In nining there is still left a little leaven of the ancient superstition that isolation and secrecy are “the proper thing.” This, coupled with some self-sutficiency tends to detract from the fullest mease ure of success. “Everybody is wiser than anybody,” and, as with managers of all other lines of business, so it thould‘be more the rule among men at the. head of mining enterprises to exchange information, and thus tend to reduce to the lowest, minimum the /element of chance that plays so im portant a part in the ever present problem ment, the absence of ordinary criticism .
