SILVER is the cornerstone of Colo
radios prosperity No sooner did
the price drop below the cost of
mining than the mines closed down
as matter of necessity With the
closing of the mines came the whole
sale discharge of men from the rail
roads, the shutting down of the
smelters and iron works. Banks
closed their door, merchants went to
the wall in every portion OF the
state, credit was withdrawn from
customers by the stores that did
stand the test and many went hungry
while all practiced economy. The
agricultural interests of the state
are great, the stock industry is heavy,
the mining of gold, lead, coal and
iron represents the employment of
many Thousand men, but everything
tlattens out with the downfall of
silver; the prosperity of the state de
pends upon the price of the white
metal.

High Carnival at st Louis.

The metropolis of the Mississippi

fall festivities that for brilliancy and
variety outshines the carnival cities of
the old world.
Paris, the most magnificent city on either
continent, has for ages held the proud title
of"the premier carnival city of the world
However, turing the last ten or twelve years
an American rival of no mean pretensions

day st. Louis holds what Paris so reluctantly
relinguished, the title of "the carnival city
of the two continents"
Not content with the successful exhibi-
tions of previous wears, the Autuinnnl

Nor the most Improbable thing to
happen would be the adjournment of
congress without doing anything
particularly with the financial ques-
ton. The fact that the general con
ditlon of the country is beginning to
improve regardless of what congress
may do or may not do might have
the effect of doing away with any
special Legislation. II the silver
senators can postpone action for
two weeks longer the probability
would be strong that financial legis-
lation would he postponed until the
next session.

THE republican state central COM
mittee which met in Denver last
Tuesday made mistake. Especially
in view Of the fact that the republican
members of congress are almost a
unit against the free coinage OF
silver. the state central committee of
that party Of Colorado blundered in
deciding to stand with the &. o. p.

The Silver Situation in colorado.

1t seems to be the universal opinion
Gibson mine Mt Aspen and the Anna
thyst at Creede, there are not two silver
mines in the state that can mine at a
profit on present prices. Even these
mines are now closed, because the ac-
cessible ore is limited, and there is hope
of an ultimate rise in silver. Then, too,
a smelter can only afford to smelt the
ore from any mine Mt a low pirce when
it can mix with il other ores. The load,
iron and other tluxing materials from
one class of ores will aid in smelling
others. Now that most mines cannot
run, the charge Tor smelling ore from
the very few which might afford to
keep open has been SO largely raised as
to handicap them. Most OF the gold
mines, for the same reason, have been
forced to close.
1t seems further certain that while u
large amount of silver has been recently
extracted from Colorado, with the price
from 80 to 90 cents, this has been prof
liable to but very few in proportion to
all the mines that have run. 1t ap-
peared from all accounts that there have
been times in the early history Of four
or five mines in Colorado, like the
Mollie Gibson at Aspen, the Enterprise
at Rico, some OF the Creede properties
and possibly three or four like the
CASTOR, Virginius and Yankee Girl OF
the Si!verton-O Ouray district when silver
could be secured for 20 to 40 cents, but
such periods were short with NEST OF
these. AS the mines were dug deeper,
the cost increased, rich pockets OF
mineral were OF rare occurance, and be-
tween them veins OF poor ore had to DE
dug, 80 that even among the six best
properties in Colorado to-day, it may be
safely said that after allowing interest
and depreciation on the actual capital
required to develop the mine, not three
can now produce at under 70 cents. un-
less they contain large percentage OF
copper or gold, while few of the
hundreds OF other mines can find any
proht with the price of silver under 9C
cents or el.--From Professor Edward
A. Bemis' Letter, September Review OF
