GAINESVILLE Argus: The immediate
effect of the new silver law, as good
authority described it, Twill be such a
boom in all kinds of business and in all
parts Of the country as has not been
known for very long time. Prices of
everything will sustain marked advances
and all lines of industry will be marvel
ously stimulated. New projects will be
broached, and the wheels of business will
whirl with vim that will make CONNER
clal and financial music everywhere.
There never was time when invest
ments of every kind may be depended
upon for such speedy returns. The ad-
dition which this silver legislation will
make to the currency of the country will
make money plenty, and the promise OF
increased returns npon Investments will
release for general investments large sums
now drawing low rates of interest"
