INTERNATIONAL B1METAL11sM.

International bimetallism means
that American silver shall be restored
to its use when the foreign countries
permit, says the Montana Mining Re-
porter. These foreign nations sell in
this country about $500, 600, 600 worth
Of goods annually. They take our
goods in return, in payment of por-
ton of them, but it is to their inter
est to compel us to settle the differ
ence, if there is any, and to pay the
interest on money we have borrowed
from them, in gold, which, by the
disuse Of silver as money, has greatly
increased in value. It is not likely
therefore that these nations will ever
willingly consent to the remonetiza-
ton of silver, because it is not to their
interest to do so. They are not silver
producers and we are. They want to
sell us the;l goods, and take away
from US as much of our gold as posi-
BILE, and by shortening our money sup
ply, diminish our ability to supply
ourselves with goods such as
they manufacturer We do at home,
as the bank clearings show, one
fourth more business every week than
we do with these foreign countries in
year. We do probably as much
more business every week, as the
bank clearlngs show we have done,
SO that at home we do two and one
half times as much business in a
week as we do with foreign countries
in a year. Naturally these foreign
countries are anxious for a larger
share of this immense business. They
hope to get it by compelling us
to resort to them for money rather
than by using our own. While silver
was being purchased by the govern
ment, from 1878 till 1893 the bonded
debt of the nation was paid off at the
rate of more than 10000, 900 year,
while within eighteen months after
the repeal of the purchasing clause of
the Sherman law, our national bond
ed Indebtedness was increased $780,
900. 900. Train robbers are not in it

900, against $l5S, S36. 900 for 1898,
showing an increase during the year
of $22,674, 900.
The greatest increases in the pro-

Africa, $l1 100000: Australia. &c.
O73,O0O; United States, SO, 800, 600:
Mexico, So, 90, 900.
Mr.. Preston estimates the worlds
production Of silver for 1894 at 1867
918, 1913 fine ounces, of the coming
value of $2l4,3Sl, 900: the bullion
value Of the same at the average price
(635 cents) Of silver for 1894, was
$lO5, 348, l35. The increase in the
production of silver in 1894 over 1893
was 1872, 600 ounces
The greatest increase in the pro-
duct0n of silver was: Bolivia. 10.
500, 600; Mexico, 3,5OO,O 900: Peru, g.
100000 Chilli, 1905 900; Greece, L.
400, 900.
Both the production Of gold and sill
yer in 1894 exceeded that Of any pri-
or year in the worlds history.
Mr.. Preston is Of the opinion that
his estimate Of gold and silver pro-
ductiOn Of ! S94 is a conservative estl-
were the exact facts known they
would show an increase even greater
than stated.
THE K0otenai Herald admits the
wisdom Of our boa rd of county com
missioners in proposing to fund the
outstanding warrant Indebtedness by
issuing and selling bonds Of the coun-
ty, but fails to see the necessity of
holding an election for deciding the
matter, when an expression from the
people could have been gotten by the
time honored custom of petition and
remonstrance, thereby saving the ex-
pense Of such election. The Herald
further says that it knows the COM
miSsiOners could have sold the bonds
without an election. We think the
Herald is mistaken It's not reason
able to suppose the commissioners,
as an intelligent board laboring for
the best interests of the county,
would needlessly incur an expe nditure
Of couple of thousand dollars to de-
eide this question, and that were not
fully advised before taking this most
important STEP The reason this
election has been decided upon is be-
cause the missloners have no right
to issue bonds of the county unless au-
thoriZed to do SO by two thirds vote
of the qualified electors of the county
voting at an election held for that
purpose. If bonds of the county
were in any other manner such bonds
would be illegal. The supreme court
has SO decided, and the law passed by
our able(?) legislature last winter, au-
thOriZlng county commissioners To is
sue bonds without an election simply
amounts to nothing, like many more.
