Show THE What a Banker Thinks About Mining • • 'l'he President of a large National Bank in Chicago, was under cl'itici:;m by the pre::;idents of several other state banks bccau,;e of hts Investmernb in mmes. This man made the following reply to the criticism: "' Throughout the West, ages ago, Almighty God J.milt 81 onget· vaults in His granite uanks than we have in ours. He filled His vault,; \Vith gold, silver and copper. He gave the prospector knowledge and insight, and guided him on his way to the door of the vaults He had built. The Federal Government handed him a title patent to all therein. It is not a crime, but a virtue to enter. With drill, blast, pick and spade the prospectors have broken the combination locks and entered. But for him our notes of issue would be as the stump-tailed currency of 1857. But for him Vhis c~vemment of ours would be bankrupt. "i\Iines will be producing millions of gold, silver and copper in that future day when National Banks are unknown. "A mine contains a Cl'op already raised, harvested and on deposit for you to check against at your pleasure. "The wealth gathered from the miners immortalized King Solomon. i,!l ".Mining has made the United States the richest country the world. ".Mining is an industry as necessary to the welfare of the community as the raising of crops. "Show me a country without mines and I will show you a people sunk :in degradation and poverty; and poverty makes cowards of nations as well as individuals. "1\lining is the second industry in the United States. "1\lining has scored less than 35 per cent of failures against 95 per cent of failures shown m general merchan.dising business of the United States. ·"Without the products of the mines you would have neither a frying pan, a spoon, a hat pin or a monetary circulating medium. "Eliminate the miner and you set civilization back to the dark ages. "Outside of the element of great personal profit which will accrue to us as bankers who are able to supply the ,?.noney to open great mines, it behooves us to foster an industry upon which tihe prosperity of not alone our depositors, but of the entire nation depends."
