There is not gold enough to
do the business of the world.
No intelligent man denies the
patent fact. The effort of the
gold standard advocates just
now are to convince the PEG.
pie that the increased annual
supply of gold will eventually
be adequate to fill the void
left by the elimination of four
billions of silver from use as
money of redemption. In a
word that, if the people will
be patient long enough, the
persistent fall in prices will be
arrested by an increase Of
the supply Of standard money
through enlarged gold produc.
ton. When one stops to con.
slider that out of say 5000, ooo,-
900 annually of gold produced
but so per cent is appropriate
ed to monetary uses, the
time required to fill up the
gap left by the disuse of ST.,
900, 100000 of silver may be
arrived at. Certain it is that
the present generation will not
see that hole plugged up.

Another Railroad Coming,

The Weiser, Idaho & Spo-
kane Railway is another com.
petitor for the business OF
Camas Prairie. OF the com.
pany's project the Weiser
Record says:
"The line as surveyed and
located starts from Weiser,
thence up the Weiser river.
From this main line at one Of
two points (either of which is
practicable a branch line will
be run into the Seven Devils
mining district. The grades
on the main line, so far as 10.
Gated, will not exceed I per
cent. The crossing of Salmon
river has been selected and
proves to be practicable for
the heaviest traffic. Across
Camas prairie to the Clear
water grades are again reduc,
ed to a minimum. A further
advantage is that this line its
entire length passes through
a country that will provide a
local traffic { either mineral
agriculture or timber and
will also connect with all pres.
ent or proposed transcontinen
tai lines. The final extension
of the line south is a matter
for later consideration, but the
survey for it has been made
and is a very simple PROPOSE,
tion."

The treasury of the United

The treasury of the United
States is overflowing with
borrowed money. During
President Cleveland's last term
$262 900, 900 was borrowed
and during President McKin-
ley's term 5000, 900, 900 has
been borrowed--making $4o2.
100000 borrowed within six
years. The republicans are
pointing to the large treasury
balance as an evidence of pros
perity. The nation has made
itself rich by borrowing, but
it is a poor way to get rich
and the penalty will have to
be paid in years to come by
annual contributions of inter.
est to a class of people who
look upon bonds as safe form
of investment, which they pre-
fer to placing their money in
industry and enterprise, where
they would have to take risks
and give employment to labor.
There is no form of invest
ment, that is so detrimental to
the interests of labor-of those
who depend upon their brain
and muscle for a livelihood
as the bond and mortgage,
which are issued against the
soil as security.
