PRODUCTION OF GOLD.
Being Stimulated on Account of the
Low Price of Silver.
Immence Quantities in the
Near Future.

Those who favor the two-metal stand
ard, do not propose "two yard sticks OF
different lengths" though they are per-
sstenty misrepresented as doing So
What they do propose is one yard stick
as measure of value which shall be
made OF two metals having the charac-
teristic qualities of equalizing one an
other. There is no STANDARD" in any
civilized land to-day, that is made of
one metal. Even gold is alloyed before
tits fit fora standard. Standard weights,
standard mearures, and standard yard
sticks are universally made of two or
more metals, and there is no metal
known which alone fulflls the conditions
required for standard ofanything so as
to be acceptable to commercial nations.
Those who say that bushel of wheat
would be equally as good standard as
given weight of silver or gold, ignore
the fundamental and essential charac-
teristics which must inhere in any stand"
ard OF value. What are they?
|. Portability.
2. Practical indestructibility.
3 OF such general distribution
throughout the world, and in such
quantities that the existing stock may
be replenished when destroyed, lost at
sea, or diverted to other uses, and in
creased to meet the requirements OF
commerce.
4. Yet OF such rarity and difficulty OF
of production that it cannot be produced
in such quantity as to materially affect
the available worlds supply.
The entire worlds supply OF wheat
might be used up or destroyed in year.
Or the worlds supply might be increased
hundred or thousand fold in one OF
two seasons.
Not so the precious metals.
Man is so constituted and we have
come to realize the wisdom of the ar.
rangement, that he will not do his best
except under the stimulus of necessity
or aspiration. Ambition means only a

railroad, by Russia, will make available
the wonderful discoveries Of gold in that
land, and the prospects in the Lake Su-
perior region, in Arizona, in the Phillip
pine Isles, in many districts in South
America, and the phenomenal, though
still problematical, developments, in
Coolgordie, Australia, and the Bechuan
aland, in Africa, completely overwhelm
the imagination while they demolsh all
tables heretofore made of the worlds
supply of gold, present and prospective,
and all arguments based upon them.
Let not one stop at this point and be-
gin to imagine that these facts tend to
prove that there is gold enough in the
world to form a safe and suitable stand
ard of value for the future business of
the world. The director of the mint,
Mr.. Preston, has jumped at this con-
clusion, but even ii it were a good guess,
it could not possibly be more than
guess, because Mr.. Preston knows no
more OF the future needs of commerce
than other people know.
What have said goes to show only
this, that gold and silver are of such
nature, and so distributed throughout
the world that they fulfill certain con-
ditions necessary to permanent stand
ard OF value. This has been the history
of the altering production OF the two
metals from the beginning of history.
Attention has been ever turned toward
one until, as its production has exceeded
the immediate requirement for it, atten-
ton has been turned toward the other,
with the result that, during any consid-
erabe period of history OF money, the
ounces of silver have been practically
equal in exchange value to the nominal
value OF the gold supply, or, in other
words at the ratio of about l6 to |.
But always the total amount OF the
worlds stock has been increasing while
the commercial requirements OF the
world have also been increasing. But
the worlds stock has not, however, in
creased with anything like the rapidity
OF the volume OF commerce and the ne
cessities of commerce have developed
other mediums OF exchange, srch as gov
ernment and bank currency, checks,
drafts and bills OF exchange, but nothing
else has been devised to take the place
OF money OF ultimate redemption, or pri
mary money. The only thing that has
actually been done in that direction is
t the wiping out of existence by a consider
able number OF commercial nations OF

part OF the fund OF money OF ultimate re-
demption.-G. H. H. in Chicago Inter

OF force, unless he can think sit will
pay.
Altruism is yet in its infancy at best,
and there never was time when it was
any older or better than it is to-day.
The gambling chance in precious metal
mining is to be credited with far more
good to the world than the value of the
metals which are discovered under its
stimulus. No single agency is to be
compared with it in the Influence which
it has eXerted in the discovery and de-
velopment of new lands and unknown
resources.
During the quarter of century fol-
lowing the discovery of gold in Califor-
MIA, all prospectors and spectators
searched for gold only, and no silver
was discovered, except in combination.
During this period gold was temporar-
lily over. produced, until it endangered
the balance OF the worlds supply of the
two metals. Year after year, the gold
washers in California gulches damned
themselves daily, as they damned the
heavy spar and lead sand, (Which
killed the quick" in their sluice boxes,
in which they were washing gold, never
dreaming of the coming splendor OF the
carbonate camp which was to fash out
OF the very material which they were so
emphatically condemning.
When the silver boom of the Lead
vile epoch turned all eyes upon silver,
few men were so lacking in self-respect
as to pay any attention to gold. During
this period silver was pushed until it, in
turn, threatened similar danger, but
long before the day arrived when the
danger was really present, new discov-
cries OF gold bonanzas had turned the
attention OF the prospectors and specula-
tors again toward the yellow metal.
The natural result has been the pheno-
menal increase in the discovery OF gold,
an increase greatly exceeding the rela-
tive increase OF the value OF silver dis
coveres made in any similar period.
: More gold is to-day in sight and meas
ured up in the conglomerate deposit OF
the Witwatersrand district in the Tran
, svaal, Africa, than the total output OF
both gold and silver from the Comstock
/ district in Nevada. The fact is often
, overlooked that the product OF the Com
stock was three-ffths silver and only
two-ffths gold. The gold discoveries al

! do, within the past year, promise to ex'

KOBE, Japan. July GA frigatful
accident in which 40 soldiers persisted
has occurred on the railroad running
from this place to Osaka. \ train of
tyvcnty-three cars was conveying to the

turning from China, where they had
taken part in the military operations.
a heavy STERN was raging and as
the train was running along the sea
wall, on which the tracks rs they APP
proach the city are laid, an immense
sea leaped over the wall separating the
train and derailing the engine and
eleven cars, which plunged off the wall
into the bay. Most of the men in them
were drowned like rats in a trap.
The accident occurred about ! o'clock
in the morning and the night was
pitch dark. The sea was running so
high that it was impossible to render
any assistance to the men in the ears
that had gone overheard even had
means been at hand to do so. Some of
the men who managed to get out of
the cars while they were in the wa
ter, were dashed to death against
the wall.
