SILVER MAY JOIN GOLD IN GROWING MINING BOOM Dire predictions were made ·for the future of England if she went off the gold standa1·d. England fooled our wise financiers, says the Denver Mintog Record. She went off the gold standard and with her depreciated money she has been able to do greater business with nations on a silver basis. The United States would have been wise if we had irumediately adopted bimetallism and placed ourselves on an even footing with England for world business. New recruits are flocking to the bimetallic banner all over the United States and the cause is spreading lilte wildfire. Soon we expect to see Colorado and the west enjoying prosperity from gold and silver mining instead of just gold mining as at present. The growing gold boom is built upon rising output a.nd mining profits. The past year, with 480 millions new gold mined, saw a world record. The new year should top the 50v million mat easily. Let present operating and marketing conditions continue and world gold output will rise in tht·ee or four years to 600 or 700 millions. It probably will, anyway, under the impetus of the shove now being" given to the making of new mines. The figures used are for values at $20.67 an ounce. When we take into notice the $40 price in Australia, the $23 price in Canada, the higher figure that seems sure for South Afr:ican mines through that country going off the gold standard, we can see that a 500 million dollar world output is actually worth 600 million to the mines producing it. Expanding gold production and tremendously increased profits are the foundations of the boom in gold stocks which for months has been raging in the greatest gold share center in the world, London, and which is beginning to develop a mild fever in Denver and New York. But these main underlying reasons are but part of the story. Where else can the speculator on the long side find reasonably secure scope for his activities? Where else, in a world filled with industrial failure, can the investor go for reasonable surety of income and return of his capital? There is no other outlet for the very human urge to speculate in the hope of gain. The gold stocks have no competition. In the United States, particularly, great preparations are going on behind the scenes to advertise gold stocks by the printed word and by rising markets. With bimetallism a fact in tbe United States, industry would be speeded and instead of having only a gold boom we would have an additional boom in silver mining.-Park Record. ·-----------------------* I RIVERTON ~ms. z.
