Show Si.natok Tki.i.f.ic expresses the belief that the president will sign the silver bill which will inevitably be passed by the next congress, lie goes further and states that the bill will probably pais over the veto if it be votoed. The Colorado Col-orado senator is high authority on this subject, aud his confidence iu an early and favorable termination of the light for silver should stir up western people to renewed effort in behalf of the all-important cause. The benelits that would accrue to the people of every section of our country from tho adoption of freo coin-ago coin-ago by this governmeut cannot bo estimated. esti-mated. It is not at all probable that the mining regions would secure any greater advantages than tho corn and w heat producing regions. In tho ag gregate the benefit to tho latter would be many times larger than those reaped by the silver producers, because their interests aro so much more extensive. But the farmers, as a rule, do not fully understand the importance im-portance to them of the agitation that is going forward, and it devolves upon the miners whoso interest in tho matter is, perhaps, more direct, to lead the movement. If it bo true that froa coinage coin-age will be secured during the next session of congress, the fact means that tho price of every bushel of wheat and every bushel of corn will soon bo increased. It, means also that the price of every ounce of silver will be advanced at an early day to the coinage figure, that every mine will be increased in value, aud that every foot of real estate in every city between the Alleghanics and the Pacific will be enhanced in value. Particularly Particular-ly is this true of such cities as Salt Lake where the effect will first be foil. |
