These mines about us are filled with cjerks, profes sors, lawyers and doetorg. Don't for a moment imagine that they ate there as ornaments, receiving large salaries and doing nothing. No, indeed. In their rough miners' garb you wonld never take them for what they are. They are workers, even though their early years were spent in colleges, banks and offices. They dig and delve side by side with your common laborer, who unaerstanas neither Latin nor French, and know only one thing, and that is that they must work just as hard as their illiter ate companions "to the manner born" if they expect to make the same wages. These are the men who compose the active element which has just given Leadville its reputation for push and enterprise, and those who have not the means to build up a business here nor wish to do some hard work had better not come.
