GOLD IN THE NEXT CAMPAIGN.

In the current number OF the North Ameri-
can Review Mr.. Andrew Carnegie gives his
extremely lucid views on the above topic.
He tells US that 'gold last year was mined
TO the extent of $213 900 900, equal to
five per cent of the worlds stock; the pop
ulation of the world increases upon the aver
age just about one per cent per annum. ~
Here, he observes, I'VE have an increase
per capita of four times the quantity re-
quired TO prevent the appreciation-which
must cause the depreciation-of gold, ac-
cording to both bimetallic and free coinage
doctrine" Four years hence, he predicts,
advocates OF the gold standard ''will be able
TO point to sixteen per cent increase in the
total stock OF gold beyond the increase of
the population then, and of twenty per cent
increase based upon present population
The first necessary deduction from Mr.
CarRege's argument is that he believes
thepresent volume of gold money no W in use
sufficient for the purposes of the worlds
present population. That position is a fall
lacy, which, no wever, it is not our purpose
to discuss at this moment Indeed, it would
be difficult to find an nytling in the paper
to repay discussion. We only desire to eX-
press a mild degree OF surprise that Mr..
Carnegie should not have heard of few
things popularity supposed to be elementary
information concerning the science OF
money. When he writes OF sixteen per cent
increase in the total stock Of gold four years
hence, as against four per cent increase of
population, he evidently means us to un-
derstand that then there viii be that
much more gold money in use than there is
now; wbichis a prophecy inaccurate enough
to be property called ridiculous. hr. Car
negie is ignorant Of, or else deliberately
ignores, the theory and opinion held by
leading bimetallic and monomctallic au-
thortieS alike. that an amount OF gold equal,
or nearly equal, to the sum of its annual pro-
duction, is annually absorbedin the arts.
In period of comparative distress, wide
spread over the face OF civilization, this
theory may be open to some modification,
especially since there is the coincidence of
some what increased production; but
seriously to preach from the columns
OF great Review, the doctrine that all
the output OF the yellow metal, for the com
ing years, is TO find coinage and circulation
in the worlds exchanges, is too funny to
leave Us ground for suspecting the preacher
of conscious dishonesty.
