crease in the production of gold. is the
fact that the production Of silver has
exceeded that Of gold. ana the increase
in the former has come pretty close TO
the increase in the latter. AS the pro-
duction Of silver is no doubt restricted
bs- the minc-uWners. since they cannot
have the metal coined into money in
unlimited duartijits. while the produc-
ti9n Of gold is pushed to the utmost
for obvious reasons. and yet the for
MGR exceeds the latter. it can readily
be seen why The mine-oWncrs are eager
f,r free coinage. If that were realized,
the output OF the silver mines would at
once be vastly Increased and there
would De 4 steady flow of the cheaper
metal into the mint, which would over
Whelm the flow Of gold. While the
currency system remains on gold ba-
sis the constantly increasing output Of
gold is quite sufficient for the main
tenance of that basis. If such BIZ
metallism were adopted as the silver
ties want. the floodgates of the silver
mines would be opened wide and in 4
short time there would be silver mono
mctalIism.
