Effects Of 6spsof.

The New York Engineering and Mininl
Journal takes q very optimistic view o
the effects OF the repeal of the Sherman
law. 1t says:
The United States now produces silver
as cheaply as, and can produce it more
cheaply than, any other county. With
the highest wages, the highest cost Of Iiv'
ing and the highest priced supplies in the
world, we have produced the silver at an
extremely low price, inundating and de-
moralizing the market. Now we can, by
bringing down to reasonable limits our
western miners wages, cost Of living,
railroad freight, ETC.. reduce materially
the cost Of production and command the
markets OF the world tor the white metal.
This will close many foreign mines and
bring further force to the movement for
universal bimetalism.
Since the fears which the financial
world had for the stability and value Of
our money must now disappear, vast
amounts OF foreign capital will seek in
vestment here. while the very low prices
at which our raw products are selling,
and at which we can now manufac' ure,
will add largely to our exports and bring
us great quantities of gold.
The tide of gold which will inevitably
flow to US in the future will not only give
us an abundance OF money, but il will
drain Europe. Will it not also force the
value OF gold upward, raise the Bank of
England rate in vain effort to hold back
the ebbing tide, and raise the cos, of man
ufacturing there, unless wages be reduced
when the horrors OF long and bitter strikes
would follow? The Inhabitants OF India
and the other E.stern people who, by
boarding silver in ornaments and other
wise, because il was the safest and most
agreeable way OF hold and demonstrating
the possession of wealth, will soon learn
that silver has lost its value; that their
ornaments can no longer be converted in
to money except at a heavy and fuctuat.
ing loss. and that the possession OF gold,
not silver, is the prime evidence OF
wealth. They will then buy gold. All
the world will want gold.

A Legend Of the Seren Stars.

To the naked eye six OF Peiades or
"Seven Stars" seem to be OF about the
same magnitude, while the seventh is
very dim. The dim star, the lepen
says, is Merope, one Of the seven daugh.
ters of Atlas and Rheione, and her pale.
ness IS a punishment visited upon her
for having married mortal The other
sisters all married gods: Alcyone and
Calaeno married Neptune; Electra, Maia
and Tayegta were welded TO Jupiter and
Storope to Mars. Poor Merope united
herself with slaYhus, common NOR.
tai. and was doomed to eternal dlmness
for her rash act. Besides this, her hus.
band must, throughout all eternity, roll
huge stone up bill. As soon az il
gets to the summit it rolls back and his
never-endlng task is again resumed.

Faith in the Silrer Industry.

1
The miners in Mexico evidently have
faith in the future of silver. While many
of the poorer mines have been closed
good mines now yielding are worked At
usual, and work in mines which are sup
posed TO cont tain silver in abundance and
prospecting continue without relaxation.
There seems to be some reason for this
faith. In the first place, silver is money

ished from any country, while it must
long remain the chief, # not the only
currency OF many countries in the east
and in America. Furthermore, the use
OF silver in the arts and industries is con-
stantly increasing. Then, as will be seen
in an article which publication is com
menced IN this paper, there would seem
to be reason for believing that the maxi.
mum production OF silver in the world at
| ,rge has probably been reached and
issed This is all independent OF any
possible action which may be taken
either by the United States alone or in
combination with other great commercial
powers in the interest OF silver. There
are those who believe that the price of
silver has reached the lowest point will
be witnessed bv the present genera.
ton, and that It's upward tendency, which
may be very slow, will he constant. This
view OF the subject is by no means a
bright one, bat there is IN il certain
amount of consolation for the silver pro-
drcing countries. Silver has at present
a certain value OF which it cannot be de-
prived and there is good reason for be-
lieving that this value will steadily in
crease While the working Of poor mines
will not be continued OF renewed in the
n ,ar future. good mines can still be pro-
fi,ably worked. The profits may not,
and in fact will not, be 30 large as in the
past, We, mining In Mexico continues,
and will continue, to offer manv induce
ments, although the present price OF sill
yer is driving many miners to seek other
occupations, which is not an evil for the
country. since the production Of varie-
ty OF exportable articles is most desirable.

A Great Property.

A gentleman. just from the Indian Ter.
ritory, reports that section of the coun.
try as having some very good resources.
"The Aztec" he says, sis one OF the best
paying properties in the country. II is a
gold property and is located in the west
ern part Of the Indian Territory. is isolat-
ed from the world and is owned by an
English syndicate. The ore is found in
the Big Btldv mountain, and at the foot
OF this is Badly, little camp with a
po,soffice, store and few little shacks.
The managers do not employ many men !;
the ore ia easy OF access and gold re-.
quires less labor to treat than silver.
They have taken out ahont 5000 900
from the Aztec since it was opened up,
and yet they mill the ore themselves and
there are no freight bills. That is the
difference between gold and silver mines.
