(‘The Monetary Times, Toronto) Recognition of the advances which Canadian manufacturers have made in sup;iiying machinery and equipment for the mining industry in this counâ€" try is given in statement by G. C. Bateman, secretary Oof the Ontario Mining Association to The Northern Miner and published last week. In his remarks Mr. Bateman points out that economic considerations demand a conâ€" tinual improvement in their methods in order that they may imeet competition in the case of base metal mines or keep up their rate of profit in spite of ageâ€" clining grade of ore in gold mlnes whlch are rwraduallv exhaustion. ‘This condition in the mining industry generally has thrown out tacit chalâ€" lenge to the manufacturers who have made a real effort to keep p1ace with > demands from the mines for maâ€" chinery to suit their requirements "so thas today," he says, "Canadian minâ€" mr companies are able to obtain most their requirements in Canada Tlhe mining industry in Canada is ons ‘of the most important and nobody can speak better for its requirements or the way in which these requirements are met than Mr. Bateman. There is. therefore, ground for much gratifica â€" ticn â€"that Canadian manufactured soods are meeting the demand so well in this great branch of activity.

By the same token he does not always receive credit for ideas that later turn out to be farâ€"visioned. When he says, "1 argued soâ€"andâ€"so ten years ago," it is not taken too seriously, and often he has no way of producing proof. With newspapers, it is different. They are always on permanent record and the statemont of last week or last year or last decade is constantly being throwr back at them. On the other hand the good they do is not necessarily interâ€" red with their bones. Years afterwards the glimpse of true vision may be reâ€". vived and repeated to testify to their foresightedness. All of this is but \ preface to the reproduction herewith C> a little item from the fyles of The Sudâ€" bury~Star of nineteen years ago.

At this date it would | be interesting if The Telegram would | give his name.
