treasury and the sharks who were haz-
arding the governments financial de-
structlon. There has been much wonder
and speculation in financial circles as to
how the syndicate has been able to ac-
cumu,ate the god which It has from
time to time voluntarily exchanged at the
treasury for greenbacls, but while the
manner in which It has been done is not
absolutely known, because the syndicate
has not seen fit to make public its OPP
erations the most plausible theory ad-
vanced to account for 1t is that most
of the gold have been obtained from San
Francisco, and through the syndicate's
purchase Of bullion checks. The circu-
lation on the Pacific Coast is practically
an gold. and there is constant move
ment of money from here East As a
result of this San Francisco exchange
on New York is usually at premium,
equal to the cost Of transporting god
across the continent. For the same rea-
sons New York exchange on San Fran
cisco Is often at ShBht discount, al
though for some time past 1t has been
at par BY offering exchange on San
Francisco, therefore. the syndicate can
accumulate large quantities Of gold in
San Francisco at practically no expense.
The syndicate can also procure god by
buying bullion checks issued for bullion
deposited at the assay offices and the
government mints, these at the present
time, when there is demand for gold,
being at slight premium, In this fash
ion, it is believed, the syndicate has been
enabled, with little expense, to accumu-
late practically the entire product of the
American gold mines, which average usu-
ally about $S5,OOOOOO year.

In our kilograms this morning will be
noticed the details of another miserable
mining disaster that occurred yesterday
in Colorado. The frequency Of these
appalling accidents to miners, and the
almost invariable laxity of supervision
which brings them about, seems to us
to open up a very grave question. Not
wlthstanding the strlngency of laws re-
lating to careful examination of the
strength and safety of walls and COM
partments of mines in most of our states,
1t is a matter of common knowledge, that
very few attempts are ever made to en-
fore such provisions. The result is that
month after month the criminal negli-
gence of overseers engaged in mining
work is responsible for the loss of many
human lives

That the spirit of moss5ackism Is not

letter, To 'go a little slow, keep quiet

community are its progressive men in al
matters pertaining to the growth and
Improvement OF the town or city, as they
are primarily interested in such growth
and to walt until after the growth comes
would of course be suicidal to those in
terests which expect to reap benefits dur
ing the progress of events. To bring
about growth and Improvement requires
the citizens of any community to be on
the alert, and ready and eager to take
advantage of every opportunity to put
their Claim to pre-eminence before the
public and let people know what they
have to OFFER to investors and settlers,
1t is also essential that the true interests
OF community be protected by avoiding
a reputation for crooked deals and fake
land schemers, None of the residents
OF Astoria or its real estate dealers want
to give the place back eye by floating
worthless property when there is plenty
OF good property to be had, or selling
second grade property for tirst-elass
when all grades can be sold on their
merits at reasonable profits, TO prevent
this kind of dealings by professional
sharks who are most Likely to flock In
here when things begin to move and to
secure proper advertisement and advance

be the aim Of It's Real Estate Exchange.

Of the term is not what is wanted or
