| 3679 | How shall I know if I have payable gold so as to save time and trouble in sinking? |
| 3679 | Assuming, then, that gold originally existed as a mineral salt, when and how did it take metallic form? |
| 3679 | But it will be asked, how are many struggling mines in sparsely populated countries to obtain the services of all these eminent scientists? |
| 3679 | But let us ask, would any other business, even such as are less subject to unforeseen vicissitudes than mining, succeed under similar circumstances? |
| 3679 | But what about the metals? |
| 3679 | CHAPTER XII RULES OF THUMB MINING APPLIANCES AND METHODS A TEMPORARY FORGE What prospector has not at times been troubled for the want of a forge? |
| 3679 | Can it then be wondered at that our gold- mining is not always successful? |
| 3679 | First, how comes it that alluvial gold is usually superior in purity to the"reef"gold immediately adjacent? |
| 3679 | How am I to know the true bottom when I see it? |
| 3679 | I presume you know gold when you see it? |
| 3679 | If they contracted hydatids, typhoid fever, or other ailments, which thin our mining camps of the strong, lusty, careless youths, who could wonder? |
| 3679 | Now, do n''t you see there is almost a track betwixt here and there where the grass and herbage is more withered than on either side? |
| 3679 | Second, why is it that masses of gold, such as the huge nuggets found in Victoria and New South Wales, have never been discovered in lodes? |
| 3679 | What is the remedy for the unsatisfactory state of affairs we have experienced? |
| 3679 | What was it originally-- a metal or a metallic salt, and if the latter, what was its nature?--chloride, sulphide, or silicate, one, or all three? |
| 3679 | What, then, would be the force required to remove the Welcome Nugget? |
| 3679 | Whence came the metallic gold of our reefs and drifts? |
| 3679 | Why not, therefore, where interests which may be said to be national are involved, endeavour to ensure fair dealing? |
| 3679 | Why? |
| 38903 | _ Successful engineers, whose predictions concerning such properties have come true, are sometimes complimented(?) 38903 Are not such substances of the mineral kingdom? 38903 Are we justified in letting this definition stand as it is? 38903 But what about quarries from which are taken building stone, salt, kaolin or clay? 38903 But what about the price at which to capitalize a prospect? 38903 But, in the youth of a mine, how are we to know what its mature capacity will be? 38903 Can he or can anybody even roughly estimate the sum? 38903 Did the outcome of this one fraud cure the victims of irrational mining investment? 38903 Does the practice of mining cover the treatment of the excavated products? 38903 For instance, one may ask the question about the old abandoned hole in the ground which is occasionally found by prospectors,Is it a mine?" |

| 48925 | Are there any channels or underground sewers to take away the dirty water and other refuse made in the houses? |
| 48925 | Are there any gardens to the houses?" |
| 48925 | Are there many of the members who have houses of their own? |
| 48925 | Are you prepared to do this? |
| 48925 | But the question that faces us now, and demands an answer from us, is, would they have come if the Board had never been formed? |
| 48925 | But why is this sought? |
| 48925 | Can we make our efforts successful? |
| 48925 | Could the workmen point out any probable good which would result? |
| 48925 | Could you fix Thursday next, the 21st, at two o''clock to meet our Committee here? |

| 48925 | If it is consistent with the sliding scale to discuss the matter, is it necessary to lengthen such hours? |
| 48925 | If it is consistent with the sliding scale to discuss the matter, is it necessary to lengthen such hours? |
| 48925 | If it were the function of the State to fix hours of labour, was it not logically its function to fix the wages of the workman? |
| 48925 | If the hours are lengthened, should there follow any increase in wages, and if so, how much? |
| 48925 | If the hours are lengthened, should there follow any increase in wages, and, if so, how much? |
| 48925 | If the members persisted in their resolve to have no Conciliation Board, or some substituted machinery, who would suffer most? |
| 48925 | If you fix the working hours by Act of Parliament, why not fix the rate of wages also? |
| 48925 | In this case, which in your opinion as the advantage?" |
| 48925 | Innocently the judge put a supplementary question:"Was it a wide plank you ran along?" |
| 48925 | Is he to be for that condemned, for where is there a man without them? |
| 48925 | Is it colliery or private property? |
| 48925 | Is it consistent with the sliding scale to discuss a lengthening of the hours? |

| 48925 | Ought collieries of men( hewers included) who have not received any notice to give in their notices? |
| 48925 | Ought the reduction to be resisted or ought arbitration to be sought?" |
| 48925 | Perplexed, but not enlightened, a second query was put:"What did you do then?" |
| 48925 | Sanballat and Tobiah and Geshem laughed him to scorn, and despised him, and said:"What is this thing that ye do; will ye rebel against the king?" |
| 48925 | Second,"Shall it be settled by the Durham Federation Board and the united Committees?" |
| 48925 | Should arbitration be offered? |
| 48925 | Should the notices go in; if so, when? |

| 48925 | Suppose a general stop now ensues, what are the probabilities of success? |
| 48925 | Suppose we should strike against a receding market, and a surplus number of men, and lose, what would be the consequences? |
| 48925 | The Committee took a return in which they asked eleven questions:"What is the size of your best houses? |
| 48925 | The question which they must answer first was: Is trade favourable for such a demand? |
| 48925 | The questions submitted were: Should an eight hours''day be sought; if so, by what means, by Trades Union effort or by law? |
| 48925 | The questions were: Should there be a strike to force the demand, or should they work on? |
| 48925 | Then he asks:"What wrong are the workmen doing? |
| 48925 | Then said the querist:"Have you never been up till now?" |
| 48925 | They asked what the employers would have thought, if, having the power, the Miners''Association had held out inducements to charge men? |
| 48925 | They were firm in their belief in conciliation, but, if the members still persisted in abolishing it, what other form was to be adopted? |
| 48925 | Unless trade is prosperous now, could they expect to succeed in such a claim? |
| 48925 | We have placed their statues in a prominent position; but what do they mean to us? |

| 48925 | What number of double and single houses have you? |
| 48925 | What size are the rooms, and how many to a house? |
| 48925 | What suggestion had they to offer? |
| 48925 | What support could they get? |
| 48925 | What they now ask is, can they have your consent to assist the agents in attending such a series of public meetings? |
| 48925 | What was to be the line of procedure? |
| 48925 | Where, then, was the hope? |
| 48925 | Why make this difference between those who belong and those who do not belong to our Association? |
| 48925 | Will delegates come prepared to say what shall be done in this matter? |
| 48925 | Would wages not have been reduced if the Board had never been formed? |
| 48925 | of the total, what would be its universal effect? |

| 38015 | But can they deceive anyone except a stupid, careless man, unskilled in mining matters? |
| 38015 | But has the artisan or weaver of the cloth any instrument not made of iron? |
| 38015 | But in this manner, might not anything that we possess be called a scourge to human kind,--whether it be a horse, or a garment, or anything else? |
| 38015 | But what need of more words? |
| 38015 | But why need I cite here these many examples from history? |

| 38015 | For of what good things can we not make an equally bad or good use? |
| 38015 | For what can be the reason if the sun draws no copper from copper veins, that it draws silver from silver veins, and gold from gold veins? |
| 38015 | For who, unless he be naturally malevolent and envious, will hate the man who gains wealth as it were from heaven? |
| 38015 | Further, when gold coins are assayed in the fire, of what use are they afterward? |
| 38015 | Furthermore, hunting, fowling, and fishing supply man with food, but when the stag has been ensnared does not the hunter transfix him with his spear? |

| 38015 | Have you reached the Inferno? |
| 38015 | Hence, very rightly, Horace says:"Dost thou not know the value of money; and what uses it serves? |
| 38015 | How few artists could make anything that is beautiful and perfect without using metals? |
| 38015 | How much does the profit from gold or silver mines exceed that earned from agriculture? |
| 38015 | Iamque aggressus opus, uiden''ut mouet omne quod obstat, Assidua ut uersat strenuus arma manu? |
| 38015 | In short, to whom are the metals not of use? |
| 38015 | In truth, if there is a bad use made of them, should they on that account be rightly called evils? |
| 38015 | Is it true that because these philosophers despised money, all others declined wealth in cattle? |
| 38015 | Is the wickedness of one or two to brand the many honest with fraud and trickery? |
| 38015 | Is this any reason that so honourable a house should lose its good name and fame? |
