"When the gold deposits of the Gui-
anas and Venezuela are fully developed
the world will be forced to demonetize
gold" This startling statement WAS
made few days ago by one of the most
conservative and best posted mining
engineers who ever set foot on the South
American continent.
f. H. Teats of Denver, The gentleman
referred to, has been in Salt Lake for a
few days, having just completed min
ing investigation in Eastern Nevada.
He is in the employ OF the Marowyne
Gold Mining Company, consisting of
Philadelphia and New York capitalists,
and has spent many years of his life in
South America
II am not joking about it" said Mr..
Teats. The whole country is full of
gold. Our operations 80 far have been
confined to placer mining, but there are
enormous lode deposits Of the precious
metal all through that part of the world.
The difficulties of mining it are only
those incidental to the opening of a new
country. The death rate in Paramaribo,
tae capital of Dutch Guiana, is only
hall Ms high as that of Salt Lake.
"In Dutch Guiana, where the Marrow
yne company has its concession, the
mining land is held by the crown and a
royalty of about per cent is exacied on
all the geld In addition TO this we are
paying an occupation tax of about 4
cents on every two and one half acres
for the first Two years which will be
gradually increased to 20 cents as the
ground is improved.
"The city of Paramdribo is being rap
idly undermined, and | may say that
nearly all the improvements are due to
American and, chiefly to Western enter
prise. 1t is surprising to find how many
mes from the Western States are repre-
sented in the colonial capital. They are
putting in electric street cars, electric
lights and all other improvements 10 be
found in an up to-dete American city
Mr.. Teats declined TO speak OF his
mission to Nevada. He left for Denver
last night and will return TO Guiana next
month.-Salt Lake Tribune.

latest and most important publication
ever issued on the silver question.

The Miserable

We arr told that the Commissioners
OF the great comm ercial nations are
favorable to ratio of 32 to | for oliver.
How did the wise body come to Tx upon
that? There is no silver surplus. Eng
land wants several millions Of ounces to
coin FOR India. Every ounce coined On
the continent of Europe passes for real
money at a ratio of l5l9 to ], and every
country, save possibly France, wants
more. Suppose they were to agree upon
81 to l, do any OF them think silver bull
lion would not be worth that price next
morning? II paper money has no value
except through its stamp aud it passes
at par, where comes in the great fear
about silver? it never fell in value un-
til the nations repudiated it and then
when it began to fail it dragged every
article of commerce every form of prop
erty except interest. bearing notes and
bonds down with it in the same ratio
that silver fell, that is, gold was appre-
ciated until when silver had fallen so per
cent it was found that it required twice
as many pounds of wheat or corn or
cotton TO buy dollar as 1T required be-
fore the nations, following the advice of
those who held most of the worlds inter
est bearing securities, repudiated half Tho
real money OF tho world. Are these
commissioners afraid to acknowledge at
this late day that the demonetization Of
silver was a robbery more gigantic than
was ever before perpetrated upon the
worlds poor, and that great middle class
that with their little money aud their
work combined, are trying to live? Most
of the bonds are paid off, principal and
interest, gold is Increasing vastly faster
than silver, still with all that can be OBJ
tanned Of both metals the nations are
forced to issue vast amounts OF paper
money in order to carry on their halting
business, paper money with nothing be-
bind it except faith in the power of the
respective governments to redeem it.
1t is just thirty years since silver de-
monetized, since the nations stamped
upon 1t, declaring ii was SO plenty that
it had ceased to be precious metal and
was a mere commodity like beans and

and China alone would like to buy an
amount equal to what all the mines of

T"EpE CENTURY:
Thank Offering $40, 900, 000..'
Easily Raised.

In many respects the most i'm
pressive item of news last week
was the announcement that the
Twentieth Century Metho d is t

education aud charity had been

gin TO spare. A notable feature,
too, about the heaping together of
this vast SUN is that the bulk of
it has come from the rank and file

one gift of as much as 100000,
and one of $4,000, the remand

The hold of the Methodist
