thinks the Presidents words show a disposition

be obtained. \ reduction OF duties, rs Mr.
Moore well knows is equivalent 10 an increase
of revenue in many cases. But il Is more
reasonable to suppose that the President did
NOT cyamire the subject sufficiently to have
clearly defined ideas on that point II he had
examined il, he would have discovered the
error of surprising that a surplus revenue
exists and therefore a need Of reducing the
revenue. TO learn this fact, he had only to
read the flst few pages OF the official report of
his own Secretary. And il is to this day n
marvel that neither the Secretary nor the PTc,i-
dent considered the prospect of a deficiency of
more than $2OOOO.OO in the revenue during
the first year of Democratic Administration
a feature worthy of serious discussion or re-
during practical remedy.

FINED FOR SHOOTING 4 WOMAN


II il NOT easy to understand the favor shown

Laura NJ. Thorp. He went into the woman

apparent provocatiOn. lie declared that ne was
ignorant of what occurred, and ala not

there was something behind the case which has

from the beginning TO shield some man who
could have cleared up the whole mystery and
+o keen his name from the public and the Dis
hict- Attorneys Office and the Court Of General
Sessions cannot be considered free from blame
in the matter.
The shooting took place in March of last
wear. Walsh pleaded guilty yesterday. The

THE COLORADO BONANZA AND THE SILJER
nTESTIDE


QUESTION.
The best answer to the elaborate arguments
Of the silver enthusiasts who met on Wodncs-
day at Metropolitan Hall is the discovery Of
the silver bonanza in Colorado. II is not ~
vet certain, Of course, that the discovery VIII
prove as Iich as it is reported to be, bat the
owners could afford TO throw away three
quarters of the estimated value and still be
comfortably of in their new possession and
enjoy the congratulations of many friends upon
their success.
What has this to do with the meeting to
discuss the use of silver as money and the
causes of its depreciation Every one recog-
nizes the fact that the good fortune Of these
gentlemen who have invested i'll the Colorado
mines is extraordinary. Where they succeed,
thousands have failed, and they also have
failed a great many times. The failures cost.
Into every empty hole which it was hoped
would prove n mine large sums Of money
have been put. If nothing comes ont, the
people forget that Part Of the cost, but the pro-
ducers of silver do not. They know, what the
enthusiasts are apt to forget, that the cost of
getting silver includes the cost of all the
Searches many of which prove fruitless.
In the long run, the value of gold and of
silver is mpasurably determined by the cost of
getting ont these metals. The idea that the
use as money is the only or the chief element of
value is at once seen to be erroneous, il we
suppose that silver could be had as abundantly
and as cheaply as sand, or gold as chcaply as
iron. Probably neither metal, if so abundant,
would be used as money, but if so used it
would have a value proportional to the cost of
getting it, The cost of mining the precious
metals is not easily determined for it includes
the cost of all the unrcwarded prospecting, aud
of all the unsuccessful mining He who will
glance ri the long list of mines which p1y no
dividend, and on which heavy assessments
have been made, will see that this element Of
cost is large one. Immense sums are invested
and expended by the projectors in searching
for mines, of which no record can be made.
Large sums are expended by the original
owners of the stock. sometimes with success
aud sometimes without The original invest
ment represented by the first cost of the stock
is but small part of the aggregate investment
in late number of The Engineering and
Mining Journal a list is given OF only eighty
one mines upon which assessments have been
levied, and the amount Of those assessments is
