Rich young fellows who want to do something in the world cannot do bet- , “than to imitate the example of Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, president of the New York city board of police commis- sioners, who enjoys the distinction of being the first man that has ever been nble to close the drinking saloons of the metropolis on Sunday. When Mr. Roose- welt resigned from the civil service com- -»mlfiion to accept his present place many thought it was rather a come down. The result has proved itwas not. It has also proved that a brainy man with I conscience and a serious purpose , fithfe is about the best man a city can I . ' nfpoint to high olllce. The saloon clos- lug law Mr. Roosevelt undertook to see executed was none of his making. He did not approve of all its provisions, but he was there to see it obeyed. and he did in it obeyed. So favorably did he im~ pl. even liquor dealers themselves that the chairman of the excise committee of itheWine and Spirit Dealers' association fill of him: ' "Personal contact with Mr. Roosevelt has taught me to respect and esteem him as an honest, conscientious and draightforward man, an excellent gon- Ileman who indulges no favoritism and is not influenced in the performance of the duties or his otllce by any man, be he large or small, have he pull or no pull. Consequently you can place abso- . lute dependence upon his statements. " Mr. Roosevelt was a young man of independent wealth. Not having to . work for his living, he turned his at— tention early to the study of social, po- litical and economic questions. In move- ments for bettering the condition of mankind he has always taken a warm Interest. Besides that ho is a scholar, a ranohman and a sportsman and a thor- oughly human all round man. Brightening (iolrl Prospect. It seems altogether likely that the gold and silver war will settle itself. With rich gold finds from Alaska to West Australia, from Canada to South Africa, gold promises to become plenti— ful once more and to readjust the eqni~ Iibrium between the white and yellow ‘nietals. It is true it is to the interest of gold monometallists to make the world’s an- anal output 100]: as largeas possible. Even making allowance for this, how- ever, and putting the estimates on most ourservative grounds, it is safe to say that the world's production is now more by 75 per cent than it was seven years ago.

Highest Awards World’s Fair Chicago. Gold Miner. and Gold Stocks. _ The British seem suddenly to have lost their heads in the past few months. They can never again point to the American people as an awful example in the matter of crazy speculation. Wall street never in its palmieet days wit- nessed any greater excitement than has prevailed in the United Kingdom this fall. The real value of the South African gold output for the future nobody can foresee with certainty. A correspondent of the New York Sun quotes an Ameri- can mining expert, John Hayes Harn- mond, as saying that before the end of the present century the probability is the African goldflelds will produce .100, 000,000 of gold a year. This year the so called Rand district, in which the leading African mines thus far discovered are situated, produced $45,000,000. The South African dia- mond mines yield annually 820,000,- 000, and this same region has also as yet unknown resources in the way of coal, iron, zinc and copper mines. South Africa is therefore beyond doubt the richest section of the globe now known to man. The fact that it is so rich may be taken as some excuse for the furious speculation that has been on in England in everything African for the past few months. There are 12 South African corporations whose shares form the leading material over which the conserv- ative British public has gone mud. The properties in which they invite the pub- lic to invest savings range from gold and diamond mining stocks to bank and real estate company shares. The fever heat to which the excitement over those has risen may be judged from the fact that while the nominal capital, itself undoubtedly watered and inflated to the highest notch, of the 12 South African companies is put by the correspondent above mentioned at Silil,‘.)l.'i,.700, the value given to the some. proywrtiss by the speculative craze in $03,307,500. The innards Bzu‘nato haul. and con- solidated shares are human tho most prominent on the list. 011 thcwholo, as almrys, thow who bought thcir shares in those properties viloap and sold illl‘lll at tho highvst ratv have nnnlo greater tritium.» than thmowholmught them as a pr‘l‘iuitill'nt inwstnwnr. Undoubtedly they have now rmchml high water mark in price, and Americans will do well to stand from under, for there is bound to coruo a great crash. It is of interest in connection with the agitation for temperance reform to note that Howard Crosby, president of the New York Social Reform club, de- clares he has lost all faith in lowing abstinence into mankind. He now falls back on moral, mental and spiritual in- fluences. to diminish intcmperance. He believes that moral suasion and the in- fluence of public opinion are the true weapons with which to fight drunkcn~ nose. Mr. (.‘roshy is very nearly right. No matter how stiff, a law may be en- acted there are always ways of getting under, over or around it. If those who direct all their efforts toward having st' prohibition laws passed would also in )r to give workingmon cleaner, more inviting homes, better food and good cooking, if they Would establish tem— perance clubmoms, where men might enjoy a pleasant social hour-of evenings, they could accomplish much more in the cause of temperance than is now done. In addition, the children of the poor must be made happy and comfort— able; they must have clean, pleasant, harmonious homes.
