iiscretion of the editors. Please " j of ,urrHi. to a good many
people, who in the period of depression in
the early '90 s felt that the one thing
needed to preserve the business health of
ths country was a larger volume of gold.
Equally forcible are the figures relating
to the holdings of the banks, and all such
governments as carry gold reserve out
side of the banks, representing practically
all countries of the world. These holdings
in gold were last year 3521 millions,
sgainst 1915 ten years sarlier, or in 1896;
the amount being held in the United States
increasing in this period more than three
fold. Director of the Mint Roberts, looks
for an unprecedented world's Output of
gold in 1 907.' Enormous bank holdings
have not prevented a sharp money string
ency at the turn of the year, with interest
rates temporarily very high at all financial
centers. The secretary of the treasury
meanwhile insists that all moneye in act
ual circulation in thie country have in'
creased over 200 million dollars during
the past 12 months, and believes that the
temporary stringency has been caused by
the unprecedented prosperity in this
country, and reasonable prosperity every'
where in the civilized world. Surely the
new year is opening with a hurrah.

The governore of Oregon an J Idaho
have recommenced in their messages that
laws be enacted to prevent fake mining
stocks from being floated. This is cer
tainly a step in the proper direction. There
is rio doubt but what many valuable min
ing properties in Oregon and Idaho are un
developed today from the lack of money,
wh'sh would be forthcoming wre it not
from the fact that so many investments
have been made upon what was purported
to be valuable prospects that upon invest
igation proved to be only a scheme to ex
tract money from honest investors.
