Although Japan Is on the gold basis, she nevertheless uses great quantities of silver; in fact, it Is the only money known to the masses, anil the same in a more restricted sense applies to Russia. Naturally, the breaking out of war which at the outset promised to be quite as long as it has been, between those nations, gave un upward impetus to the silver market and kept it up while the contest lasted; naturally also, with tlm conclusion of peace, the reactlou sets in and a full occurs immediately. The fall in this cuhc, we take It, is purely scmiritlietic and spasmodic, in no sense reflecting actuul conditions, nnd ii this proves to be correct, there Is no reason why the decline should be more prunuunred; rather may we look ror complete recovery so scam as the flurry. The point from which silver receded was low enough without reference to outside influences; Indeed, we would ull look with the utmost complacency upon a much higher figure than has been recorded since it by the Independent Publishing Company.

More than can be told In a newspaper article or anything else, except the book of fate, with which mining men, like their follows, are not overly Intimate. We are clearly within the proprletiep, however, when we say that a railroad to Alta would be a mighty big thing all around. - 1 IT IS PEACE.

In reaching this astonishing Tesult In such an astonishing manner It was of course necessary for oue all Its contentions as to the disputed side or the other to yield absolutely points, and the fact that Japan finally did so does hnt add to the wonderment of the situation. Up to the last minute the Japanese envoys showed a Indemnity In one form or another, ap-for and to stick hang disposition that parently not caring in the leastmeant the failure of the deliberations war to a finish, and those of the it earths people who did not know before know now that Japan la abunfight dantly able and quite willing to ns long and aa hard aa may be necessary ; furthermore, the bulldog tenhas acity of the little brown fellows anu been abundantly seen and heard felt.
