Futl;re of Mining.

The demands of civilization for
minerals and their products are like
ly to increase with time rather than
decrease. Of course all the big de-
posts of the world have not yet been
discovered, but a large portion of the
world has been searched for the re-
quired minerals with more or less
success, AS the ores of useful met
ais are not produced by nature, as
fast as man depletes existing deposits
it is simply a matter Of time before
the human race will have exhausted
the more easily accessible and richer
deposits, and will have to fall back on
those at present considered unpay-
able under existing conditions, In
olden days slave labor made 1t pos
sible for ore to be worked that other-
wise must have been left for a later
date. At the present day not only is
the condition of the working miner
better than Of yore, but modern ap-
planes and methods enable very
low-grade stone to be handled. There
is no reason why future generations
should not improve on present prac-
tice, SO that they a deal with ore
of a grade now considered not worth
while touching. When reporting on
a property 1t is not sufficient to look
at it from the past or even the pres
ent, but one must look ahead to a
certain extent. Some properties can
be condemned as out of the question.
right away, others. warrant more
careful Investigation, and often the
combined opinions Of two or more
specialists, for M man cannot be an
expert on all subjects. He may be
very good on technical points con-
corning the working of a mine, but
may lack the intimate knowledge
necessary to extract the metal from
the ore by the most up-to-date meth
cd suitable for that particular ore,
allowing for local conditions. Again,
his business knowledge may be 50
slight that he would be unable to
market. the product to the best adj
vantage, or advise as to the best
method Of financing the enterprise,
for a mine may be good, and the ore
successfully treated, and yetsthe ven
ture prove a failure from a financial
point of view, owing to unsuitable
capitalization, or some other foolish
arrangement. Then there is the mar
ket price Of metals to be considered,
requiring a knowledge of the worlds
supply and demand. II q high price;
islikely to be sustained, then snail
deposits that would not otherwise be
worked may be brought forward with
advantage, as has recently been the
case with copper ventures. II a met
al reaches too high price, tnea
some substitute is sought for its cons
mon uses. This tends to bring the
price down again. Or one metal may
be affected by another, or by some
special trade. such as tin, which is
largely produced In silver currency
countries, SO that when silver is high
IL cannot purchase the same amount
Of labor as when low. Also, tin be-
Ing chiefly employed In the manufac-
stnreofstin plate, and tin plate being
largely used IN meat-preserying
works, the demand for that metal
may re influenced ~ thestinnedm meat

Among the great number of arti.
cles published on the financial situas
ton scarcely two agree as to the
causes of the furry and the best
remedy for the arrangement in the
currency supply. Currency in con-
siderable amounts is held at a small
premium, though enough passes from
hand to hand in an ordinary way to
answer the purpose. But any prem
ium is proof that either there is too
little currency available or that it
is boarded beyond the practical
working line. That it is hoardsd 20
an unusual extent is evident. The
question remains if, when brought
entirely out of hialng, the currency
of the country is now sufficient for
the current needs of more than
so, 600, 900 people like the Amerl-
cans.
After devising means to get. the
currency out of the places where il
is foolishly and harmfully concealed,
and subject to serious risks of loss,

the problem of the currency sup
ply. 1t is at this point that reckless
in1ationists will seek to get in their
work. The country has made their
acquaintance before. Once they
favored an unlimited issue of green
backs, the first cost of which would
be only the paper and press work.
Eventually they would go to the rag
picker, as did nearly ten billions of
French assignats in a former period.
The fifty-cent dollar crusade oc-
Cured only eleven years ago. Its
chief apostle is to be the next demo-
cratic nominee for president. His
old allies, the populists, have re-
appeared on the scene. Let congress
watch out vigilantly for these, fabri-
Gators of an ocean of currency while
you wait. They are up and doing,
and will do the country if they get
the acknowledgements.

Dominion government has a small
note issue outstanding, mainly car

greater part Of the paper money IN
the hands of the people consists OF
the bank note issues. No reserve is
required of the banks against their

under penalty of very heavy fines to
put out more notes than the amount

Electric light users had an oppor-
unity to ever things up yesterday
evening with the folks who, being
patrons of the Gas company, took oc-
casion to jolly their less fortunate
neighbors, when the electric current
failed earlier in the week.
An accident to the t1ues necessital-
ing the drawing of TIE fires, put the.
gas people out of business until near
sly eight o'clock. The workmen maxi
ing the repairs are entitled to con-
siderable credit for remedying the
situation SO speedily, as the task was
both a dangerous and a difficult one.

IAN MACL AREN WILL
FILL LECTURE DATE
Noted Author to Appear Here
On April 26.
DEWITT MILLER SECURED.

The hackers OF the local popular
lecture course have received positive
assurance that Ian Maclaren will APP
pear in Richmond on the night of
April &c. That will be the final num-
Der of the course.
After a thorough investigation the
lecture course committee has found it
impossible TO make a date with DR..
Frank Bristol and in his place the
committee has secured the well
known platform orator, Dewitt Miller,
who will give his lecture on The
Self Sufficiency of the Republic on
the night Of April s. The committee
feels fortunate that it has secured the
services of such an able man to fill
the Bristol date
Mr. Bristol was to have appeared at
the Gennett, but he did not reach the
city. The lecture by Mr.. Miller will
tend to offset any disappointment
which might have arisen from the
failure of DR.. Bristol to come.

MARKETS
Richmond.
RAIN PROVES OF BENEFIT.
Local Grain and Feed Dealers Profit
BY Weather Conditions.

With a two days rain the local
grain and feed dealers who have for
the past week been handicapped, ow-
ing to the fact that farmers were
busy with their spring work and
would not haul their grain, will wear
the smile that wont come off, as the
farmers will take advantage of the
period when they can do nothing else,
and market their remaining last years
crops. According to the statement of
local feed dealer, it has been inn
possible the past week to induce the
farmers to haul their products, and he
was required to go out into the coun-
try and haul all that he bought A
majority of the markets remain very
quiet, the supply meeting the de-
mand. Eggs raise one cent on the
dozen.
