HEFORX OF THE MINING LAW, Ttwcurredtdus last season tbat after #ie Important reforms in the Mining Law, originating with ibe Chief ^Commissioner and passed at tbe last session of Parliament, that For a time at least we mrgtrt adopt the reit-arid-be- thankffcl poHcy; but we are now convinced that stagnation is decay, *cd if we would maintain the proud positfon we have hitherto held we.mnsk adapt onr taws to' ear altered circumstances, and by a wiee ami prudent liberality offer such inducements to prospec- ���������ors that their probable gains may becommen eurate with their actual outlay. We ore prompted .to. this idea by observing the enormous expenditure incurred by some mining companies in. simply, prospecting a claim with nothing but surface indications. and perhaps discoveries in the neigliborbood. to warrant their outlay. One comgwwry on Lightning creek has already expended about $30,000 in prospering 1500 feet of ground��������� an expenditure altogether disproportioned to tbe result, even if It should equal the most sanguine expectations. In the case referred to, such an expense would never have been incurred but for the known richness of tbe creek wherever companies"have Huuueeu������u\ib wcrkfog the deep channel. .It is in vain to expect miners to disburse such sums to prospect one hundred feet of ground on creeks not so well known, but likely to fee quite as rich. ��������� . .', 7...,.'.. All our easily worked grbund has been tried and in most instances worked oat, and the oldest Ciiribooite knows not where, to try bis hand on a easily prospected spot. This begets a spirit already visible' and growing fast with miners to locate merelhan 100 feet 1o the maniaridali the well known expedients ������re adopted to attain that end. -It would be far better if larger sections of mining ground, of the character of that referred to, were allowed to be located in a legitimate manner, fiecuring the claim to tbe pre-eraptor when a certain amount of work has been performed in a given time, or an equivalent amount of Machinery placed upon the ground. It would, ���������of course, be necessary to guard carefully against looking up our mineral lands in the hands of men who would use them only for th** purpose o? speculation. Such an alteration in the Mining Law would induce men of moderate means to invest their money and labor in iniiung with tbe knowledge that even H the venture be unsuccessful the investment was made upon a business-like principle and with a fair chance of a profitable return. It would be well if miners wor.Id still further apply the well understood principles of cooperation. A large amount of time, money and labor would be'saved if the energies of several companies were devoted to attaining a satisfactory result in one claim on bu unprospected cre������k instead of frittering away money in several different places, without ��������� any satisfactory conclusion iumaoyin-j CUMMINGS CO..

The probability is that at the next session of the Legislature some action will be taken in the matter, as it is one of great importance, not only to Cariboo, but to the whole Province. ������������ur duty is performed if we but awakea otir miners to take an interest In the subijeet.

For twenty years or so he measured]the breadth:, and/height, and .also tested the :fitrength$oth of 1be arms and ioins>of his students ; a very numerous class, consisting of different rjatioha'lities drawn to Edinburgh by his fame."'

There are so many ways of disposing of it which never seem to give any-returns. Your housekeepers need to learn.the art of spending well, A dollar invested in a nice, covered dish for tlie table, a useful mat for the hall,-a beautiful tree for the-front door yard, will give a hundred-fold tbe pleasure that it would in a strip of trrmraing about the hem of a dress, or a fat chicken for the 'table'/ which leaves you no better satisfied than if you had dined off an inexpensive chop, . Think well oyer, every,dime you pay out, and resolve to put it to the best possible acoounfc. The art of spending is even a more important one than the art-of earning money.

Title | The Cariboo Sentinel |
Publisher | Barkerville, B.C. : George Wallace |
Date Issued | 1872-12-14 |
Description | The Cariboo Sentinel was published in Barkerville, in the Cariboo region of central British Columbia, and ran from June 1865 to October 1875. At the time, Barkerville was home to a fast-growing community of miners who had been attracted to the Cariboo region by the discovery of gold. The Sentinel was published by George Wallace, and its stated objective was not only to disseminate mining intelligence, but also to eradicate official abuse[s] of power, both within the Cariboo region and beyond (vol. 1, no. 1, p. 2). |
