It may turn ont that instead OF the
people of Colorado wadiug in gore up to
their bride bits to maintain silver, they
win develop into The ierccst OF gold
bugs The attention. Of the mining popu-
iation has been largely turned toward
ale discovery Of gold. and with uuex-
pectci success. Many Of the old abau-
d1ncd gold diggings have been resorted
10 ard unexpectedly rich finds 'zn re-
ported Of aurifcrous ores. These dig
Yings were deserted years ago, when
the rich silver miner were first found,
which. at the price then ruling for sill
yer, made sEyCr mining moro profitable
than gold mining The decline ia silver
has reduced tho profits of all but the
EchcA mines below the point Of rcmun-
Grafton, aud the miners had to get out
of losing business They turned to the
old gold diEgings and the Developments
are very encouraging Gold Is being
taken out In large quantities, aud the
profit n grater than in silver mining
before the bottom dropped out of that
business
Two possible results may come from
this condition Of Affairs Men will ever
be the champions OF their interests.
Should Colorado become great gold
producing state, the feeling against gold
will turn In It's favor. and we may yet
see a Colorado senator dcclaiming a,liust
siSly-ccut silver dollar and demand
ing single gold standard a. the best
for tho country. The othcr possible re-
sui is the appreciation of silver To a
parity with gdd by The simple operation
of the law Of supply and demand, When
The silver miners embark in gold pro-
duction. they diminish the production Of
silver by the same act that adds TO the
stock of gold The rich gold mines in
South Africa will assist IN attaining this
end by increasing the worlds supply Of
gold. Gold growing plentiful as silver
grows searcer will bring down thc form-
tr as it advances the latter, until the
metal in our silver dollar becomes worth
100 cents In gold. There is always a
certain call for silver. aud when the sup
ply has fallen below this demand it is
going to become more valuable. The
silver problem Is likely to solve itself.
without the aid Of legislative wisdom.
