The milling revival is in full swing. Everywhere there is imprest taken in wresting the precious metals and other minerals from the ground. At no pjace is the interest more marked than in the Portland Cajial region where new companies are being formed almost every week for the purpose or working claims or speculating in mines. Everywhere there is activity. Most or the money put into the mines is contributed by total strange unl nrten by people from the United .Staffs. To them the Portland Canal district .looks good. Also it looks good to is, but we have our own little difficulties of financing to oeicome ami most people here cannot afford tp invest in minus The money comes from places where they have surpluses.- Difference Between Investment And Speculation. The element or speculation nhvayy enters into Hie mining game. People who invest in mines may make a lot of money or they may ipqke none and lose what they put in. Tbat is true Pf almost all mines. It js not an investment for trust funds or for widows and orphans' Those jvho waul to be quite sure of returns should buy good bonds.. With most people, however, the gambling instinct js. strong, and that is where the stock salesman gels lys innings. Most of us like to lake a long shot .sometimes and there is up move likely field for speculative investment today lhairin mining. Portland Canal seems likely to Ipive many good mines, working in the near future. Te possibilities -are all there. Op the plhe hand, people will lose a lot pf money there, especially jy investing in companies that are not well managed. We strongly advise people who have only a few hundred dollars to buy gooib bonds or industrial slocks jjiat are paying good dividends, and that seem likely lo continue to do so. Tor those who have a Ijtlle money lp play with, forget the horse races and take up the mining gapie instead. It has all ihe possibilities of big prizes. ' ' Warmer Her Than In Los Angees.
