The great bearing that the issue of free silver coinage will have upon the next Presidential flection Is aptly shadowed by the remarks of Senator Colquitt, of Georgia, published in our columns With the South and West united on this great question it will be a campaign of silver and antl silver sentiment rather than one of Democracy or Republicanism; a cam paign in which the fight for honest money as laid down by the fathers of our Constitution shall be the para mount issue to the exclusion of .all other political jobs and schemes Introduced by either party. In view of the great prominence of the silver question it should then be the duty of every intelligent man in the mining districts to obtain such a fund of information on the subject that he need never be confused or confounded by the arguments of the goldites. The great " fear" of the Wall street gold barons that unlimited free silver coinage would result in making America the dumping ground for all the silver in the world is easily chased away when an impartial investigation is made of the facts and the present relative financial positions of America and European powers. The recent report of the Secretary of the Treasury (Windom), dated May 19, 1891, shows how false and untenable is such a position; and as being valuable for future reference and an irrefutable argument in favor of silver we append the table of exports and imports of silver during the time that the law has been in force increasing our purchases from two to four and a half million dollars of silver per month : For the month of April to-da- 6 Exports 90 1S91 2,m)2,681 830,951! 1,573,452 Imports For four months ending April 30: 8 7,40.i,3.-,$11,2.",2,842 Exports 5,300,291 4,170,240 Imports For ten months ending April 30: 1H90 Exports Imports $32,485,364 For twelve Exports Imports 1891 $20,098,418 15,798,827 months ending April 30: $40,180,601 $22,471,823 21,228,597 19,931,012 16,598,801 THE ISSUE. mountains.

SILVER At the next Presidential election the free silver issue will cut quite a figure and have an important bearing An Atlanta in the Southern States. correspondent who recently interviewed Senator Colquitt as to whether free silver ought to be subservient to tariff reform, reports the Senator as saying: "'o, sir; financial rel'ef for the people of this country is an issue that must supplant all others. I am glad, indeed, that our Georgia farmers have taken this matter under consideration, and they cannot study it too attentively. The free coinage of silver Is the first step to be taken for the emancipation of the people from the tyranny of the money kings. We must not permit this issue to be made secondary to any other. Tso ! not even tariff reform. Two classes of persons we find it necessary to contend wb.h in discussing the question. First, the bond holders, bankers, money lenders and money owners of the country, whose only aim is to make money dear; second, some other persons for whom I have the greatest respect, who fe:;r that if the silver issue is raised tariff reform may not have the attention to I feel confident which It is entitled, that the silverfquestion will be an im portant issue in the next campaign, l feel confident, too, that the party which fails to adopt the free coinage of silver as an important article of its creed will meet with inevitable defeat and that the party favoring it wil1 triumph in the election of its candidate. The feeble efforts of individuals to bear back will be swept away in the mighty rush. Those who attempt resistance will be beaten down and crushed beneath it. This determination for silver is not a whim or an im- ' pulse." WORK OF THE WEEK. The record of the past week throughout the Tintic district is a most favorable one. Everywhere the work of prospecting and pay- mining is in progress, and never have the hills seemed in a more kindly mood to reward the energetic and persistent treasure-hunteThere are two or three good strikes to chronicle in the south end of the district, the most prominent one being on the extension of the Swansea, where, at a feet the ledge has depth of forty-fiv- e been struck and the assays promise a The prediction of the pay mine. Mink it last week that work in the porphyry would develop many ood mines is shown to be correct by the strike made in the King Jaaies, in Dragon Hollow, a nice strike of ore having been made in the porphy-- and pyrites which shows up well in gold. The big mines are running as usual. k beThe ore body in the Bull tween the five and six hundred levels is said to be large and unusually' rich. At the Keystone there will be an increased production owing to the recent rich strikes made in the lower levels, which are said to excel anything heretofore met with on the north end of the vein. The Eureka-Hil- l and are producing as well as ever, the latter having mo c rich ore in sight than any other mine in the Territory. The North Tintic country is also heard from, everything in that seel ion being most encouraging to the prospector and investor. The strike of the rich, white talc in the Biddlecome property would indicate an ore body close at hand. Other signs of the development work being prosecuted in that part of the district make the ultimate strike of ore bodies almost a foregone conclusion, and only a matter of time when the necessary depth shall be attained. All in a'l, the work of the week is most encouraging. r. A careful reading of these figures wiU show that it is not true that many millions of dollars in silver were "dumped" into the United States on the passage of the law last year. On the other hand, ifc will be seen that for the past year our silver exports ex ceeded our imports $1,243,226, while for the past two years they exceeded our imports $21,497,213. The great fact iiithe silver question is that outside of the United States the world does not produce silver to supply the demand cnojijrh Another reference to the report of the Secretary of the Treasury will sub stantiate this, for it will be seen by the figures there quoted that in the ten years preceding demonetization (1873) the United States furnished $200,000,000 in silver to the world much of this being the product of the great Comstock lode, which to a great extent has now ceased producing.

The latest dodge of the managers, not the di rectors or owners of the mines, is to select from the number of employees those who have been too active in bringing about these changes and find cause for their discharge.
