THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
Tub Magic or Gold. During the war with its rise in wages the gold output, declined. America had to close Alaska. The British slowed down in South Africa and the first; movement, important to finance and world civilisation alter the war, was to bring down wages in South Africa, and bring up the production of gold.
To my mind that is the important fact in finance to-day, lor il you will review it a moment, you will see it was San Luis Rotosi and its mountain of silver that broke the darkness of the Middle Ages, and gave us modern civilisation. It was the California, of 1849 that with Australia gave the world the gold by which the path of civilis.ition was unblocked by the destruction of human slavery. —Clarence AY. Barron.
