MINERAL OUTPUT OF THE WORLD
Figures that Show the Output OF tho
Precious Metals-Richard r. Roth
well Never Neg1ects to Hit the
"High Wages OF the West''
BlOw-The Sherman Law.
The Worlds Mineral Industry,

The Worlds Mineral Industry.
Mr.. Richard P. Rothwell, editor Of
The Engineering and Mining Journal,
has finished the second volume Of his
valuable history Of the mineral indus-
try Of the world, and it has been pub
lished Economists, statesmen and stat
isticians will find here we'll Of infor-
nation from which to draw. The work
embraces the history, statistics and
technology Of minerals the world over,
from the earliest times to the end Of
1898. A corps Of learned assistants in
several parts Of the world have helped
in preparingthe book The year 1898, 80
far as the silver industry goes, will rank
with 1878, Mr.. Rothwell tells us. The
demonstration Of silver, begun in 1873
and continued till 1898. In that year
the repeal of the Sherman law in the
United States and the closing Of the In
dian mints to the coinage of silver end
ed the last government attempt to up
hold the price Of the white metal. Now
only Mexico, some Of the South Amer
lean republics and the Asiatio nations
are wholly or partially on silver basis.
At the beginning Of 1893 silver bullion
was 8216 cents an ounce in New York.
At the end of December it was only 68.
The average price for the year was 1879.
Mr.. Rothwell finds that two results
have followed the repeal Of the Sher-
man law. One was reduction Of the
"disproportionately high wages paid for
labor in the Rocky mountains;" the
other was an increase in the production
of gold. Old or low grade gold mines
were reopened, and some valuable new
ones were discovered, notably the de-
posits at Cripple Greek, Colo. The effect
was an increase over 1892 of $3, 900, 900
in our gold production. This much at
least is encouraging. The total gold out
put in the United States for 1898 was
nearly $S6, 100000. Colorado yielded
more than third of this. We produced
within few dollars the same amount
of gold in 1898 that we did in 1878.
With silver, however, the case is Diff
ferent. In 1878 our mines yielded 27,-
685, 712 ounces. In 1898 they yielded
so, 500, 900 ounces. The value Of the
silver mined in 1878 was $85, 750, 900.
In 1893 the almost doubled output, cal
culated at the average value Of 78. Q an
ounce, was only $47,811, 900. Calculat-
ed on the United States coming basis Of
81. 1929 per ounce this silver would
have been worth $78, 800, 450, which is
the value assigned to it in Mr.. Roth
WELLS table. Silver production in the
United States fell off 45, 900, 900 ounces
in 1893

The Past Record of a Demo-
cratic Senator.
HE SOLD Ills HONOR FOR GOLD
Queer Contrast of the Speeches Made
by Senator voorhees, East Year
and Several Years Ago What
He Thought of the Money
Question In the Past.

By the repeal of the Sherman law in
1893 the government deliberately in
dorsed the crime of the demonetization
of silver, and great political party
which gave assurance of relief in 1892, in
it's platform, bowed down before the
mopeyed power of Wall street.
In speech which was printed in the
Congressional Record, page 1886, the fol-
lowing language was made use OF by
D. w. Voorhees, in the United States
senate, January Is, 1868:
"Sir: In the entire catalogue OF crimes
against human society not one can be
found so awful in it's consequences, both
immediate and remote, as a government
commits when it deliberately destroys
the money of it's own citizens. Wherever
IN all the regions of time such measures
have been accomplished the horrors Of
history have taken place. No shrinkage
in the amount of money, no contraction
OF the currency in the hands Of the
people was ever enforced by law to any
considerable extent, except broken lives,
ruined hopes, despair, lost honor and all
the vices springing from the lowest depth
Of poverty and human misery. The
worst ingredients of war, pestilence and
famine all flow from the act of govern
ment violently tearing from the hands
Of the laboring masses the money they
SO much need. Murder, theft, robbery,
prostitution, forgery, embezzlement and
fraud OF every hue and mien, curse the
land that is deprived Of full and suf-
ficient circulating medium on which to
give employment to it's toiling men and
women. The social statistics of man
kind will show that whenever the supply
OF money has been scant, and labor
poorly paid or left entirely idle there the
gallows tree has borne most frequently
it's horrid burden there the jails and
penitentiaries and all the haunts Of in
fanny have been most crowded. The
we'll clothed and well-fed Pharisee may
ostentatiously thank God that he Is
better than such as these, but he is not.
When the strong hand of the govern
ment is engaged in abolishing, and thus
interposing between the laboring man
and laboring woman their last chances
for bread by honest work, their sins for
self preservation are less odious to their
merciful father than the prayers of tbs

THE N OF MARY.

The DevOtfons for May at st. Peters
Church.
The May devotions in st. Peters viii be-
gin on Monday, April 80, May eve, at 7.45.
Each evening the beads will be recfted, a
May sermon preached, and hymns in honor
of Our Lady sung. The exercises of devo-
ton will close with benediction of the
Blessed Sacrament. The beautiful custom
of decorating the May altar with cut flowers
and potted plants is dutifully observed each
year by the generous people Of st. Peters
parish, to whom the Month of Mary and its
fitting celebration is very dear. The month
is one of special devotion and exact observ-
ance for the young people of the parish who
are members of Our Lady's Sodality. They
are proud to call themselves Children of
Mary, and they are eager to honor Our
Lady.
1t viii surprise many to learn that the GUS
ON of honoring in IN especial manner the
Blessed Lady during May is Of recent date in
the church. Scarcely more than a hundred
years ago, the daily devotions of the month
were held for the first time by the Rev.
Joseph Mazzolari, an Italian priest of the
Society OF Jesus. Only a few of the faithful
at first attended these devotions. Now the
observance is universal. Pope Plus VII, on
his return from captivity, sanctioned the OBJ
~servance Of chs Month Of Mary and granted
to all the faithful, who, either in public or in
private, should honor the Blessed Virgin
with some special homage, an indulgence of
three hundred days, each day, and a plen-
airy indulgence to be gained once during the
month.
