Show Sort of Midaammer Madness. Denver News. The proposition to stop the production produc-tion of Colorado silver until the price is forced up to $1.29 is a sort of mid-ummor mid-ummor madness. In round numbers the silver export of the state amounts to $:J0,000,00() a year, and to shut it off would mean wide spread ruin to all the industrial and commercial interests of Colorado. To bring about the suspension suspen-sion proposed would be next to impossible, impos-sible, and if brought about would produce pro-duce results even worse than the present pres-ent rate of silver. The prospects for a free coinage bill are now so certain that we can afford to wait . a few months at least before adopting any heroic he-roic measures. - i |
