1852 these new fields were producing
together over 800 ,00o. 900 year.
There was general revival OF trade
and industry in England. and on the

THE growth of trade with the United
1 States, which was then on the high tide
OF prosperity. The famine. the nara
times and the political troubles OF 1913
had already started emigration and de-
pleted the labor supply. Then came
the revival OF the shipping trade ana
the ship-building industry, new d7.

the natural reaction from the naru
times that had lasted from 1S46 10 lSoo'
has always been in dispute Ihen came
the additional stimulus OF war--tne war
in the Crimea-between Russia, on one
side and England, France, turkey anu
Sardinia. on the other. This war dram
ed heavy supplies of specie to the seat
OF operations in the East. England ana
France not only had to support their
own troops there, but they bore, by
means OF subsidies. the expenses OF
their allies. And as the region IN
which the disbursements were mace
was poor in cash and as commerce with
it was small, bills of exchange were I'M
available, and the remittances were
made in coin. Under the two lnfiu-
ences, expansion at home and the war
exports, and another to be mentioned
further on, the bank reserves rapidly
disappeared. The rate OF discount
went up to five. six and seven per cent.
and finally, in 1857, came the CONNER
cial crisis in Europe and America. The
specie holdings in the bank OF england
were practically exhausted. ,le discount
rate was ten per cent. and the govern
ment had to intervene to save the bank.
II was reasonable, says Mr.. ROBBERS, to
anticipate that what happened In the
lifties will to some extent, be repeater
in the present period. In all the adj
vanced countries, fully equipped with
modern machinery and where the pro
duetion and accumulation OF wealth IS
going on at an unprecedented rate IL Is
difficult to find opportunities to invest
the annual savings OF the people. Inc
new capital is continually forced into
occupations in which the returns are
tower and lower as compared with the
investments of the past. The result IS
severe competition and wasteful oupil-
cation OF investments and the genera
organization OF industries. From these
conditions, says Mr. Roberts, there is
but one avenue of relief, and that is
emigration and the opening up OF new
fields for investment. Such fields. he
adds. are South America, Africa. ASIA
and Eastern Europe.-Albany journal.

FROM THE GOLD FIELDS.

1t is astonishing news that comes
from the gold fields Of Mexico and Ari-
zona Conservative mining men de-
clare that these two States will soon
be producing more gold than has ever
been brought out of Alaska or Africa.
Capital from every State in the Union.
especially New York, has been at
tracted to Mexico and the development
of the mines there is going rapidly
forward.
The worlds output of gold in the
next twelve years is likely to be enof-
nous. George l.. Roberts, director OF
the United States mint, estimates that
it will equal the entire stock of gold
held for monetary use in the world
at the present moment. AS soon as
peace is restored in South Africa and
mining operations are resumed there,
the yield of gold in the world may
be expected to reach $400, 200, 900 year.
In 1890 the yield was $11s,000, 600. In
ten years 1t has increased nearly 300
per cent. In view of the estimates
of the future product Of the mines OF
Mexico and Arazona, more startling
advance is likely TO be made in the
next ten years.
In an article in the North American
Review on the Influence of These New
Gold Supplies" Director Roberts re-
marks that there is no more interest
ing subject for speculation than the eff
feet of this golden stream upon the
markets, upon all the varied relations
of individuals and classes, and upon
the social life of the people. The en-
largement of the money stock, he notes.
is a good thing so long as it promotes
a natural and orderly development of
the worlds resources. But when every
man is at work the point Is reached
when addition means dilution and
where new money can find employ
ment only by a decrease in the value
of the old stock. In such condition
speculation arises. economic waste and
adventure run riot and in the end there
is collapse that discrepancies the
whole industrial system.
Mr.. Roberts sees threatening signs
in the present market and Industrial
conditions. He compares with this
period the period that ended with the
crisis of 1887 He says:
Gold was discovered in California in
1s4s, and in Australia in 1851; and by

THE POINT OF VIEW.

THE POINT OF VIEW.
For the Register.
This world is as we make it,
l often hear them say.
If we are sad and fearful.
The world will seem that way;
And il we seek the dark side.
Where everything goes wrong.
And moiehills seem as mountains,
Our lives Will seem too long.
But If we seek life's sunshine,
Sweet joy to others give,
And gaily climb life's mountains,
As though we're glad to live;
To overcome disaster.
And sunshine. round us shower.
To make our dear friends happy,
Then Joy will be our dover.
The world Is but a mirror,
Rejecting each ones nina,
If we look at it GROSSLY.
To us twill not look kind:
But If we smile upon it,
1t will be joyous, too,
No natter how we see 1t.
Twill give us our own view.
So when the world seems dreary,
And life seems bitter. too,
Just ask your disposition
If it can better do;
And If it turns 10 sunshine
The world will look so bright
That YOU will be forgetting
How dark has been the night.

And the stories all spun
And I lean me back
'Gainst q towering oak,
And | light my pipe.

Through leaves above,
Telling of happiness,
Peace and love;
And my thoughts run back
TO the noise and strife,
The sorrow and sin
OF the city life.
And | breathe a prayer

That I'm camping tonight
On the rivers banks.

And the camp is wrapped

AN INPORTANT ORDER.

Order No. 5 has just been issued by
the Governor of Guam, who is no less
a person than Commander Seaton
Schroeder, of the United States navy.
Order No. 5 was issued from Govern
nent House, Agana. Island Of Guam.
Order No. S reads:
"First-The commandant of this station
Is congratulated upon the promptness
with which. in less than two days, evil
dence was found which apparently tends
10 the discovery OF the perpetrators Of a
theft of private property alluded to in
naval station order No. 4. This confirms
the belief that the members of an honor
able profession do not wish to harbor
thieves i'm their midst
''Second-It must he pointed out that the
first duty Of the battalion. the duty for
which II was sent to Guam is prinar ily
the protection of Government property.
While there were one or two members of
the command who had cause TO suspect
possible thieves of private property. there
are dozen who positively know who
Etoie public property. If they wish 1t.
they can have the matter cleared UP at
Dnce. The entire command is now await
Ing to hear from them: and il is hoped
that American manhood will continue TO
assert itself and refuse to permit the rep
utation and privileges of all to suffer in
order TO screen few criminals who do
pot deserve such leniency
..SEATON SCHROEDER,
"Commander, L. S. N, Governor"
This document has stirred I'D the
State Of Kentucky. The properly whose
theft caused the issuance OF Order No.
was the last barrel of whiskey on the
island of Guam, and the terrible calam-
ny is thoroughly appreciated through
but the blue grass region.
The wonder is that Governor Schroe-
Ter was able to confne himself to Off
. .ial language.
