Mr. H. A. Gordon, late inspecting engineer of the Mines Department, speaking to an interviewer in London, said :—": — " I think there are some remarkably good mines in New Zealand, but care and judicious selection are necessary if capitalists here are not to lose their money. The London people ought to be far more careful, and get men beyond suspicion to report upon properties before they put their money into them. During the boom time here many men without a penny piece used to raise money from storekeepers and others in the Colony by simply pegging out in the vicinity of known properties, and reports were sent Home by people who' had had no mining experience whatever. Reports, in fact, were made to order. Such a thing as a boom has a deterring effect not only in New Zealand, but in this country, for it generally results in worthless properties being foi&ted on the investing public." Mr. Gawne, of Dunedin (says the Southland Times of April 13, 1891), has just been on a visit to Inveroargill to push business a little. Not that it wants much canvassing, for since he commenced the manufacture of his Worcestershire Sauce, the demand has kept pace with his capacity to supply it. He makes a really good thing, indistinguishable from the famous Lea and Perrin's, which he places upon one's table at a much lower price, and trusts to that to secure a steadily growing trade. Those who have not yet tried the colonial article should put their prejudice aside for a time and test the question with a bottle or two. — Advt.
