ready access to the railroads, with
cheap transportation charges and
cheap supplies, while yet a further i'm
portant item is the cost of lumber.
Whole forests have been consumed In
timbering the Comstock lode alone; and
the prices of lumber, in the mining re-
gions Of this country, have fallen from
anywhere between $40 and $50 to from
SO to s16

to cost $40 a box now cost less than

or IA cents. The price Of fuses per
thousand feet has dropped from $50 to
Sc, iron from 20 cents pound to 3 cents
and steel from 40 cents to 8 cents, show
els and picks from $3.50 and 1913 to 81
each. And smelling charges have been
reduced from $50 and $65 to from $40

fall in the price of fuel. In Colorado
oil is now largely used for this purpose

other similar processes have taken the
place of the old and eXtravagantly
wasteful devices and ore that yielded

return double the amount, while the eX-
pense of treatment is far less. 1t is
hardly too much to say that without
the new processes a good half Of the
mines of the present day would be
closed and it is doubtful if the gold
production of the world would be half,
possibly not more than third, of what
1t is today.

er product than has been known IN any
year within this generation. This in
crease is all due to scientific treatment
of large bodies of low grade ores, ores
which never could have been treated
before. Nor is there anything to indi-
cate that these low grade ores are be-
ing exhausted, but on the contrary it
is probable that yet larger bodies will
be made to yield their riches The in
crease of the worlds output for the
last five years has averaged II per
cent. for each year. If the rate of in
crease for the next five years averages
no more than 10 per cent. still the
total for 1900 will reach the stupendous
sum of $500, 000,0 00 That would mean
an output for the next five years of
$1,300,000,000 or more than in any de-
cade since 1860 1t would. mean an
output for the ten years from 1891 to
1900 Of nearly $4,000, 900, 900 of gold. That
is equal to one-fourth of all the yellow
metal mined in the 400 years from the
time Columbus discovered America.
Put into other terms these estimates
reveal the possibility of an absolute
glut of gold. At the present time much
less than one-third of the total gold
product is consumed in the arts, and
there is nothing to indicate that this
demand can keep pace with the rapid
and unprecedented increase in produc-
ton. Our present gold basis currency
scheme, originated in England in 1916,
and subsequently adopted by the chief
commercial nations Of the earth, was
formulated at a time when the worlds
production of gold was a little more
than s10O0O,G0O year. In the interval
that has elapsed, the worlds popula-
ton has increased only two and half
fold, while its gold production has in
creased twenty times. The present in
dications are that it will be thirty
times what it was in 1916, before this
century is closed. 1t is one of the curl
Gus and startling phases of the re-
markable revolution in gold mining
that it may force upon the nations the
question as to whether they will be
able to keep their minis open to the
free coinage of gold at it's present
value. 1t is not a scramble for gold
it is a deluge which is threa tened.
