Previous to the war 1912, was the best goldâ€"producing year in history the value of the gold output for the countries of #he world being approximately $440,000,000 .00 . The first year‘s production after the war commenced exceeded thns figure by about $9,000,000,00 ‘but tl‘(ml 1915 on the gold production has steadily declined in every country but Mexiâ€" co, the world‘s out put last year beâ€" ing only $340,000,000.00. _ The deâ€" cline has been due chiefly to the short age and inefficieney of the labor obâ€" tainable and the marked increase in the cost of equipment and supplies To help in relieving the matter of high cost of living, supplies, ete. gold producers in various countries have askedtheir CGovernments to assist by bounties or subsides, which would enable a cont,nuance of production without actual loss. â€" The gold proâ€" ducers of the British Empire petitionâ€" without actual dloss. â€" The gold proâ€" ducers of the British Empire petitionâ€" ed the British Government for a boâ€" nus or subsidy on gold production. The â€"Government last October apâ€" pointed a Committee to investigate and the repoxt of this Committee did not favor the plan of a subsidy or bonus. _A committee appointed by the United States Treasury also stuâ€" died the question and this committee objected to the bonus , plan, making the suggestion that there would be a normal fall in prices following the end of the war and then condrtions would _ right themselves. _ Although the war has been over its active stages for crowding close to a. year now, the promised drop in prices has not imaterialized. to any appreciable extent. ‘The Committees thus are shown to ‘be poor prophets. â€" There is no questiom, however, of the necessity for continued and increased gold proâ€" ditction to stabilize the financial sitâ€" nation of the nations of the world. The mines of the Poreupine did their bit all through the trying days of the war, and it appears as if they were now about to play a notewowhy and commendable â€" part in these . trying days of peace. The Hollinger Conâ€" solidated is now producing gold at the rate of, about $7,000,000,00 [per vyear, the Melntyre‘s production is at the of ahbout $2,000,000 .00 _ in old per year and the Dome‘s proâ€" duction is expected to run at the rate TBE PORCUPINE ADVAN of about another $2,000,000.00 per year. With these three mines proâ€" ducing at a rate only slightly below the production for all of Canada last year, it is casy to see that if all the mines in the Dominion do comparaâ€" tively as well as the three big leaders the result will be that Canada will take a higher place in the world as a goldâ€"producing country. At the preâ€" sent time South Africa leads in the production of gold, producing 9542â€" 024 ounces in 1918; the United States takes second place with 3,313,373 ounces;â€" Australia comes third with 1,585,000 ounces; Russia has fourth place with. 830,000° ounees; â€" while Canada, with 710,532 ounces,was fifth Condtions in â€" Russia will tend _ to reduce the gold production in that country, while Canada‘s production will be materially increased . So it is more than likely that for this year and succeeding years â€" Canada will stand at least fourth in the list of the worle‘s gold producing countries. MAYORS OF NORTH LAND MEET PRINCE OF WALES Mr. J . Ferguson, Mayor or North Bay, last week issued _ invitations, with the approval of H« R.
