ELECTRO-CHEMICAL RING
Trade-JIark, E-C. Copuriyht, 1904, by W. Q. Brownson.
The following diseases are caused by acid fn the blood, and are cured by thig
ring, which takes from twenty-four hours to two weeks, according to disease and
circumstances. The ring and the acid create an electro-chemical action, removing
the acid and curing the disease. Rheumatism— Articular, Inflammatory, Sciatic, Muscular, Gout,
Lumbago, Neuralgia, Heart, Fever. Rheumatic Paralysis — Typewriters, Pen, Operators, or wherever
located. Asthma, Goitre, Blood Cancer, Varicose Veins, Varicocele, St. Vitus's Dance. Nervous ' Pros-
tration, Acidity of Stomach causing Constipation, Bright's Disease, Sugar Diabetes, Diabetes, Dropsy,
Prostatitis, Congestion of Kidneys, Catarrh of Bladder, Gravel, Gall-stone, Stone in Bladder, Calculi,
Salt-rheum, Psoriasis, Painful and Excessive Monthly Periods,- Epilepsy, Chronic Dysentery, Bloody
Flux, Nosebleed, and all Internal Hemorrhages. Price, $2.00. Gold-covered, $4.00. By Mail or by
Express, Collect on Delivery. Send paper size of finger. Agents wanted at places not taken. Send
for additional information. The S2.00 ring is sold on a three weeks' guarantee ; ring can be returned
and money will be refunded if not satisfactory. Not for sale by jewellers or druggists. Any person
who uses our name or copies from our advertising is fraudulently trying to do business on the reputa-
tion of this ring.
This ring is not for sale by wholesale houses or any firm advertising cheap rings and can only be
obtained from us and our authorized agents.
PEOPLE WHO ARE SUBJECT TO RHEUMATIC. KIDNEY. AND ALL ACID DISEASES,
HAVE EXPERIMENTED FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS, AND SPENT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS,
TAKING AND APPLYING REMEDIES. The time will certainly come when intelligent people will
not submit to be experimented with to see if a medicine can be made to cure acid diseases.
Any reputable physician will advise you that a permanent cure in that manner is impossible, as
the acid is liable to accumulate again at any time after you quit using the best remedies known to
the medical profession. That acid in the blood caused a limited number of diseases has always been
admitted, but the knowledge of the fact that an -excess of acid is the cause of so many diseases of
hitherto unknown pathology has been a revelation to the medical profession.
Electricity, if applied continuously, and in the proper proportion, will remove acid from the blood
and this is admitted by all who are good authority in acid diseases. By the use
of the Electro-Chemical Ring the best results are obtained by an electro-chemical
action, as it acts directly on the acid, reducing the intensity and quantity, until
there is no surplus, when the ring will quit working, and will work only when it is
necessary to keep the acid reduced.

EVERYBODY WRITES, and almost everybody should use a fountain pen. Now-a-days
one is lost without a fountain pen. It combines pen and ink so perfectly at all
times, and there are so many places where it is indispensable, that it is no longer
a luxury, but a necessity. "Probably there is no article that serves more varied
requirements, and the needs of the individual users differ greatly. Almost everybody
writes differently. Each has some preference in the selection of a pen."

IT is absolutely essential, in the selection of a site for a Sanatoriuni, that the
surrounding landscape shall impart a feeling of rest, ease and peace to the
patrons. In this particular, none of this class of institutions throughout the
United States is more favored than "ELMCROFT," which was established in
1890 for the care and treatment of persons suffering from nervous and mental
ELMCROFT.
diseases, and which has, under the management of Dr. Edwin Smith Vail,
enjoyed seventeen years of professional prosperity. Dr. Vail is peculiarly fitted
to conduct an efficient institution for people with mental disabilities.
The Sanatorium takes its name from the typical old New England mansion
"ELMCROFT," which forms part of the institution and is the residence of Dr.
Vail. It is of the usual quaint and restful construction with an emerald setting
of beautiful foliage.
The Sanatorium building is a three-story structure and is thoroughly modern
XXVIU
in all of its details. No appliance that science can suggest for comfort or cure is
missing. This building, which is adjacent to the old mansion home of the Doctor,
is placed in an elm-studded lawn, on a wide elm-shaded street, in the beautiful
eld New England town of Enfield, Ct. The town is situated on the N. Y., N. H.
& H. R. R., a direct route between New York and Boston, and between the cities
of Hartford and Springfield. The electric railroad connecting these two cities
passes the Sanatorium grounds. Fifty acres of shady lawns, orchards, meadow
and woodland surround the buildings and make it an ideal resting place for
nervous invalids who demand beauty of surroundings as well as quiet and retire-
ment. The material care of the invalid has been thought of as well as the
mental, for, attached to this model institution, there is a herd of Jersey cattle,
kept constantly in a sanitary condition; a large poultry yard; a kitchen garden;
fruit in abundance, and everything that would go to make up a perfectly
appointed country home.
Tl^e Sanatorium buildings are attractive and of modern exterior design. Thes'
are heated by steam, lighted by electricity, have open fireplaces, and are finished
in hard wood. The first story has a reception-hall, billiard-room, patients'
parlor, dining-room, consultation-room, kitchen, etc., on the east and west sides
of which are large verandas from which beautiful views can be had of the Con-
SANATORIUM.
necticut River and Valley. The second and third stories are devoted to patients'
rooms. They are two sizes— 12 x 14 and 15 x 16. All are light, airy and cheerful,
with restful views of the surrounding country. There are large modern bath-
rooms at the end of each hall. These floors .will accommodate fifteen patients,
and this is the capacity of the institution.
Dr. Vail has practised for twenty-five years and enjoys the confidence and
patronage of members of his profession because his institution is conducted
along strictly ethical lines. He was for a time on the staff at Ward's Island,
where he made a study in the psychopathic ward of that famous institution.
Dr. Vail has surrounded himself with a staff of agreeable and competent
nurses and attendants, and the State Inspector of Sanatoriums declares that
"Elmcroft" is the most pleasantly situated and one of the best conducted insti-
tutions in this country. Applications should be made to DR. EDWIN SMITH

Warm Air Generators
For Homes costing from $2,000 to $200,000
and for Churches and Schools
^ The Heating of the home involves three things — comfort, health, economy.
q The KELSEY fulfills the requirements for each. NO OTHER DOES.
q The great battery of ZIG ZAG HEAT TUBES forming the fire
box of the KELSEY is the secret of its efficiency. These heat tubes
take the heal direct from the live coals, they give more than double the
heating surface of other heaters and warm much larger volumes of air,
thus securing perfect ventilation as well as heating.
QZIG ZAG HEAT TUBES force the warmed air to distant or
exposed rooms warming them perfectly, — the only warm air heater that
loes.
^Send for book of "Opinions'* showing pictures of 250 of the 30,000
Kelsey heated homes. There is a Kelsey Agent in almost every city.

IDEAL SUBURBAN TOWNS
<m ON LONG ISLAND <^
The well-known fact that during the last few years there has been a great
increase in the permanent population of the towns and villages constituting
the suburbs of the large business centres, is particularly true of the delightful
suburban places along the Long Island Railroad.
Those residing in cities have of late years been greatly interested in the
advantages of living in the country the year round, and business men who
must needs be at their desks or stores daily, are locating their families where
they may have all the benefits of the country and where they themselves may
spend each night without making the journey to and from the city a tiresome
feature of their daily life.
Probably the most essential thing in living in a suburban town is quick
and satisfactory transportation facilities to the city, and in referring to Long
Island it is sui^icient to say that the frequent and well regulated service of the
Long Island Railroad is all that can be asked for.
Long Island's topographical variations range themselves into three main
classes, each served by a separate branch of the Long Island R.R. On the southern
shore is a charming stretch of land overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and the Great
South Bay, with line beaches (the only extensive east and west beach on the Atlantic
Coast), unexcelled for surf and still-water bathing ; the central section is level,
though in places rolling country, made up of farms and woodland ; the northern
reaches of the island are generally hilly, covered with a thick growth of trees.
The great diversity of scenery and natural characteristics make Long Island a
most popular Summer and residential territory. Its nearness to New York City,
the superiority of the railroad service, the excellence of its school system, the
high quality of its society — pure water, refreshing breezes, cooled by the ocean
in the Summer — churches of all denominations, clubs, libraries and well-
stocked stores— all unite in producing conditions that are ideal for a home,
which is proven by the fact that many handsome residences have long since
been established there and are occupied the entire year by their owners.
No other suburban territory can make so strong an appeal to the seekers
of a quiet, restful, healthful, home section as Long Island.

GRAY HAIR
Chemistry has solved the prob-
lem of perpetual youth as far as
the hair is concerned, and those
i^th premature gray hair need no
longer have any anxiety.
A large railroad company
recently discharged 236 men» all
ol them over 40 years old. It ivas
understood that gray hair and the
appearance of age was the only
reason for their dismissal. This
places a premium on youth.
After much research we offer
a preparation of our own manu-
facture, guaranteed free from
silver, lead or other metallic ele-
ments with which you can stain
the hair a permanent auburn or the
various shades of brown or black.
Send a sample of your hair and
we will match it exactly.

VARICOSE VEINS
Trouble many people that suffer quietly because they have
always understood that they could not get relief even, to
say nothing about getting cured. To such people what
encouragement and hope for better conditions such a
statement as the following must bring: —
W. F. Young, P. D. F. , 137 Monmouth St. , Springfield, Mass.
Dear Sir:—
Kindly permit me to express my deep appreciation for the permanent cure recently
affected by your Avonderful ABSOKBINE, JR. , of a severe case of Varicose Veins, whose
growth traces back 20 years, whicli all other medical treatment had failed to relieve.
For 20 years my left leg had been swollen above normal size, and last Winter
1 suffered unendurable pain and lameness that set in.
I consulted a physician and he advised me to take to my bed for two Aveelisand
to forever afterward wear a rubber stocking; either of W'hich w'ould be disagreeable.
I was loath to follow these instructions, as it would necessitate being absent from my
duties as foreman of the National Biscuit Works, which with the responsibility attached
made my services almost indispensable to my employers. To follow the doctor' s orders
would not only mean much expense, but I dreaded most the monotony of confinement.
I had read of the success of ABSORBINE, JR. , and hence decided to give it a
trial. I used a few bottles, with the tablets, and in less than three months the
lameness and all the lumps which had been augmenting for years had disappeared
and I was entirely cured.
My duties being of a nature that required me to keep on my feet all day, I was
able to appreciate the value of ABSORBINE, JR. . and I firmly believe others who
experiment with it will indorse my testimonial. I heartily recommend it.
Yours Very Respectfully,
(Signed) Sept. 20, 1907. LUKE KAVANAUGH,
227 New Bridge Street, Wast Springfield, Mass.
You can get the ABSORBINE, JR. of your Druggist
at $1.00 per Bottle, or it will be mailed to any address,
all charges prepaid, upon receipt of price. Get the genuine
and you will not be disappointed.

Housecleaning by Electricity
THE Invincible Electric Renovator,
for convenience and adaptability
to any sort of housecleaning, has
never been equalled. It resembles
the ordinary carpet-
sweeper in general
appearance. The
material used in con-
struction is chiefly
aluminum, making the
machine very light
and easy to handle.
A small e'ec-
tric motor is con-
nected to a turbine
and brush. Revolutions of the brush loosens the dirt while the
turbine creates a strong suction drawing up all dirt and dust,
depositing it in the dust receiver provided. Carpets can be
thoroughly cleaned on the floor, and every corner is reached.
Attachable appliances provided for treating walls, ceilings,
cornices, chandeliers,
curtains, rugs, p'ctures,
stairways, mattresses,
cushions, upholstered
furniture, as well as the
aerating of pillows. The
machine works noise-
lessly and quickly.
This machine is in-
dispensable ift hotels,
clubs, stores, hospitals,
office buildings, the-
atres, public halls, cars,
as well as in the home.
The absolute sanitation
it affects is one of the
many recommendations
for its constant use.

Long Beach
Long Island, New York
New York's Atlantic City
THIS magnificent 10-mile ocean front resort, 24 miles from New
York City, is the only ocean front property within commuting
distance from New York City, where one can own an ideal home
free from all detrimental encroachments.
LONG BEACH is now being developed at the initial cost of eight
millions of dollars. -
An army of mechanics and laborers are transforming this superb
property from plans conceived after months of labor by the best
engineers in the country.
Interesting literature containing views of the property, together with
plans, which include the 5>^-mile boardwalk, the grading and macadamiz-
ing of streets, the building of electric light and gas conduits and the
erection of the million and one-half dollar hotel will be sent upon request.
Out-of-town purchasers have allowances made for railroad fare.
The conservative investor seeking for an opportunity to double and
triple his money should investigate this property, and benefit by the
experience of early Atlantic City buyers.

PHONOGRAPH
N'OTHING can equal the satisfaction there is in
offering to your guests a satisfactory form of
entertainment, one that takes care of itself,
which does not interfere with other forms of amuse-
ment, but rather helps them. Such an entertainer is
the Edison Phonograph.
It can amuse the guests
by rendering music, popular or classic, or it can aid
them by furnishing dance music, marches and other
things played by the best orchestras and brass bands.
It costs less than the hiring of even a small orchestra
for a single evening's entertainment.
Don't be without an Edison Phonograph if only
for the sake of your friends. Hear the new
model with the big horn at the nearest Edison
store, or write for a booklet describing it.

Beauty of outline is not everything. Yet this nfle has it -n

18 YEARS ONTHE MARKET
"DIVIDED" ROLL TOILET PAPER
■^V--J
"HONEST COUNT "
(100 ROLL CASES)
This brand has 1,000 Sheets to each
roll, or nearly five hundred feet of Tissue
'•divided" into sheets, held by a narrow
'• bond/' which may be ruptured easily and
without waste. The quality of paper always
the very best.
NOTE— "Honest Count" means just thai,
while consumers, in buying ToiletPaper, think
thev are getting 1, 000 Sheets, it is a fact that 90
percent, of all that is sold contains leis.
Every Roll is guaranteed, on its wrapper,
in the following language :
"To any one who will forward to the
manufacturer this wrapper, with an affidavit
that this roll is not as represented in every
particular, ive uyill forward free of charge Ten
Ro:h. ' '
Large consumers, and small ones also, need just such protection
against fraud in the " fatherless" rolls, bearing " fancy " names merely.
Which are plentiful in the market.
H
ec
JEZROMEl" FIXTURE
IS THE RESULT OF MANY YEARS' EXPERIENCE OF
THE REQUIREMENTS OF A ''PERFECT" FIXTURE,
1. All pnrts are together when it leaves the
factory and are so retained. None can be lost
or mislaid.
2. No instruction necessary as to " how to
put up ' ' or work, its action being universal
and automatic.
3. Tension to prevent paper from unwinding
too freely is obtained in the only rational way—
i.e., by a slight spring acting against end" of
roll. This tension may be increased at will,
and is so arranged that as the roll diminishes,
the tension also diminishes.
4. Locked with the most perfect, yet simple
automatic lock ever devised.
5. Durabilitv— so constructed ^ to last for
years— rendering it the cheapest fixture to be
had.

Do You Live in the Country?
How is Your House Supplied with Water?
The success of your home as a comfortable and sanitary abode depends
largely on your water supply.
Artificial heat is required only in winter — artificial light only at night.
Water is required during all seasons — day and night.
The Kewanee System of Water Supply
will enable you to have an abundant supply
of water — available at any hour of the day or
night — delivered to your bathroom, kitchen,
laundry, barn, garden, lawn— anywhere — un-
der the same strong pressure as an up-to-date
city water works system.
The Kewanee System does away with the
drudgery of carrying water in pails— a task
which men shirk and women should never be
obliged to do.
With the Kewanee System you use the
water from your own well, cistern or other
natural source of supply. The tank is placed
out of sight in the cellar, or under ground.
No leaky attic tank or unsightly elevated tank
to freeze or collapse.
The Kewanee System is easy to install, easy
to operate end costs nothing for repairs. Over
8,000 Kewanee Systems are now furnishing
water to country and city homes, clubs, hotels,
schools, apartment buildings, public institu-
tions and towns under an absolute guarantee
of satisfaction.
Our engineers will solve your water supply
problem, furnish plans and estimates free
of charge. Write today for catalogue num-
ber 31 (64 pages illustrated) which explains
everything.

To Avoid Shaving Soreness
and for Cleanliness
hundreds of thousands of men have learned that
Pompei::n Cream is indispensable. It does away
with after-shaving discomfort, and takes out pore-
dirt that mere soap-and-water washing can not
remove. After a day of dusty travel, work, or
sport, it cleanses and refreshes as nothing else can
do. It also gives the ruddy, healthy, athletic look
that all normal men desire.
EIAN
MASSAGE CREAM
is the first face cream to be recognized as a staple household
product, for women and men both use it to the extent of many
millions of jars a year. It is unequalled for eiTectiveness in
maintaining the face in youthful lines and in keeping the skin
free from blackheads/ chapping, tan, and other annoying
blemishes. Sold by all druggists.
TEST IT WITH A SAMPLE SENT FREE
Your name and address on a postal card will bring vou a gen-
erous sami-le and our famous book on Facial Massage, free to any
part of the world. Write us to- da v.
TO IMPROVE AND PRESERVE
THE COMPLEXION
women should use a natural aid to skin-health — not pore-
clogging cosmetics. Pompeian Massage Cream frees the pores
of infecting impurities and allows the blood to circulate. To
attain a natural, youthful glow to the cheeks; to eradicate
" laughing wrinkles" and "crow's-feet" ; to reduce the double
chin, as well as to round out unsightly angles, discriminating
women the world over are using Pompeian Cream regularly. It
contains no grease or anything to promote the growth of hair.
See sample oflrer above.

THE AMERICAN "VINE-LAND."
An Interesting Story of tbe Vine and Wine m the Different States of the
Union — The Growing Demand for Light Wines in This Country.
LONG before Columbus made his first voyage, in 1492, Che bold and venture-
some Norsemen visited our Atlantic shores. They found the Wild vines and
grapes growing in such luxuriance and profusion that they named the
country "Vine-land." What a long stretch from OM Vineland to New Vaneland,
with its hundreds of thousands of acres of cultivated vines!
The history of grape and wine growing in the United States is a long story of
struggles and failures. It begins with the attempts of the Colonists to plant a
few vines in Virginia in 1610, three years after the settlement of Jamesto-v/n. It
continues down to the year 1857, when grape and wine growing was- first made a
comm.ercial success by Hon. Nicholas Longworth at Cincinnati, Ohio. Thus, the
American grape and wine industry is but fifty years old. As a matter of fact, its
greatest progress has all taken place in the last tw^enty or twenty-five years.
The American "Vine-land" now comprises about 350,000 acres of vineyards.
The State of California leads with a total of 230,000 acres planted to grapes.
New York State is next with about 60,000 acres of viney£irds. 0.hio follows with
about 10,000 acres. Michigan and Missouri each lias about 6,000 or 8,000 acres of
vines. In fact, grapes are grown and wines are made in more- than one-half of
the States in the Union. The capital invested in our vineyards, wine cellars and
plants, machinery and warehouses, stocks of wines, etc., giving employment to
thousands of farmers and workmen, is put at $100,000,000.
With the immense production of grapes has come the large increase in the
use and consumption of light wines in this country. For many years our people
drank largely of foreign wines, 'but now they consume our good American wines.
The importations of foreign wines are about the same as they were twenty years
ago; that is to say, in 1907 some 5>00O,00O gallons of wine were imported into the
United States, v/hich is just about the quantity of wine imported in 1887. On the
other hand, the output of American wines in 1&07 was about 50,000,000 gallons- so
that about ten times as much wine is produced and consumed in this country as
there is of foreign wines.
THE SUPERIOR QUALITIES OP AMERICAN WINES.
There is every reason wliy our wines should be equal, if not superior, to any
in the world. We have in the United States the choicest varieties of grapes,
almost every kind of soil and climate, American capital and enterprise, and the
most intelligent labor in the world. France, Italy, Spain and Germany have no
monopoly of sunshine; soil or climate for grape culture, nor any secret in making
good wines not known to our people here.
All the varieties of grapes producing wines in France, Italy, Spain and Ger-
many are growing to-day in the vineyards of the United States. In addition, we
have many native varieties of grapes, such as the Concord, Delaware and
Catawba, which are not found in Europe. It is no wonder, then, that our wine
makers can and do produce wines that rival the vintages of the Old World,
I All of the well-known "types" of wines produced in Europe are obtained in
I this country. The vineyard districts of France, Italy, Spain and Germany now
have their counterparts in the vineyard districts of Virginia, New Jersey, New
York, Ohio, Missouri and California. Thus the French Clarets can be duplicated
bv the American Clarets; the Italian Chianti by the American Chianti. The dry
white wines of western New York, of northern Ohio and of the California foot-
hills resemble the German wines of the Rhine and Mos'elle. The Champagne
„„. 16— A
district of France finds its counterpart in tlie Lake Keuka region of New York,
which has become the Champagne district of the United States. Tiae Port wines
from California and our Eastern States leave little to be desired in comparison
with the wines from the Alto Duoro. The Sherries from s'outhern California and
the interior valleys of that State closely resemt)le the Spanish product. The
result is that t'he superior cjualities of oiur many American wines are becoming
more and more appreciated, while, on account of their known purity, 'they are
preferred to the imported.
THE HEAL.THFULNESS OF PURE WINES.
The fruit of the vine is one of the most perfect products oif the soil. Its ex-
cellence is equally conspicuous, whether we consider its delicious flavor or the
numerous uses to which it may be applied, whether as a beverage or as a tonic.
The juice of the grape contains albuminous matter to nourish tlie brain, muscles
and nerves, sugar to warm the body, and organic salts for the bones and tendons.
Give a chemist a bottle of pure, dry wine and have him analyze it for its
properties; .he will report from 85 to 90 per cent, water, balance alcohol, fruit
acids, and organic salts. The water in wine has been called "distilled sunshine,"
while the wine acids, such as tartonic, pectic, succinic and tannio, not only pro-
mote the flow of saliva and the gastric juices, but also aid in converting in sugar
the starchy matters of food.
The fermented juice of the grape thus furnishes a blood-purifying and nourish-
ing beverage, which enables man to enjoy good health and digestion. In the
wine-drinking countries of Europe the people do noit suffer, as we do, from in-
digestion, or dyspepsia, and other troubles due to overeating and overdrinking.
The mild acids of the wine promote the normal action of the digestive organs,
while the small amount of alcohol acts as a tonic to the whole system.
WINE AS FOOD AND TONIC.
While water, tea and coffee will quench the thirst, they are neither a tonic
nor a food, but wine is both. And this fact should always be remen^bered that
wine — the fermented juice of the grape— is a natural tonic and a simple, pure,
non-intoxicating food.
The advice of th-e Apostle Paul to "take a little wine for your stomach's
sake'' is a recognition of the food value and health-giving qualities of pure wine.
The most eminent authorities in medicine and therapeutics give the same advice
as to wines.
Dr. J. Starke, a German scientist, in his book on "Alcohol," published in 1907,
says: "From the earliest childhood to the most advanced years, there is hardly
a period of life in which wine is not ordered with the best results. Only there is
this difference, that in childhood alcohol is given purely as a medicine, while in
adult life it is used partly as such and partly as a dietetic agent, to be used more
and more as a beverage and as a nutrient."
In his book, just issued, on "Foods and Their Adulterations," Dr. H. W,
Wiley, Chief of the Bureau of Chemistry, United States Department of Agricul-
ture, thus refers to the subject: "Food ahso includes those bodies of a liquid
character which are classed as beverages rather than as foods. All these bodies
liave nutritive properties, although their chief value is condimental and social."
And this leads us to consider the use of wines as one of the social features of a
well-ordered meal.
THE PROPER USES OF WINES.
The large increase in the consumption of wines in this country is due to tlie
habit of using them at our meals. Many of our people have adopted the sensible
European custom of drinking light wines only at the family table.
Wines are not intended to be used to intoxicate, but to be taken with food,
and in the same manner as food— that is, temperately. When a man wants a
stimulant, he does not want a light wine, and therefore he takes whiskey or some
other strong drink. On the other hand, people who habitually drink wines seldom
crave for spirituous liquors. This is abundantly proved by the people of the wine-
IG— B
drinking countries of Europe. In France, for example, wnere the total consunip-
tion of wines is 34 gallons of wine a year for every man, woman and child, ihe
ptr capita consumption of alcoholic liquors is only S^-^ gallons. In Italy the con-
sumption of wine is :;i' gallons per capita per year, wliile the per capita consump-
tion of all alcohciic liquors is only one-half gallon.
THE MORE WINE, THE LESS STRONG DRINK.
The recent reports of the Department of Commerce and Labor show that the
consumption of beer and light wines is increasing, while the use of ardent spirits
is declining in this country. "It would seem," said an official of this Department,
"that the American people are becoming more temperate by the growing demand
for beer, light wines, and mild drinks."
Tlie increased use of our good, pure, native wines should be encouraged as
conducing to temperance. Already leading advocates of temperance are waking
up to the fact that there is an almost universal desire among all people for some
kind of stimulating beverage, whether it be tea, coffee or light wines. To eradi-
cate the desire is impossible; to prohibit the use of such beverages is imprac-
ticable. Therefore temperance is best promoted by providing people with a
beverage which is cheap, pleasant to the taste, and harmless unless used to
excess. Such a beverage is .light wine. It is the pure juice of the grape, with
certain properties wiiich act as a tonic. It is palatable and refreshing, and con-
tains only from 8 to 10 per cent, of alcohol, which can be reduced by the addition
of water.
In the interests of temperance, it is to be hoped that the American people
will become educated to the proper use of this healthful beverage — wine— at their
meals. Then wine would take the place of strong liquors, and the American peo-
ple would become the most temperate people in the world. In the wine-growing
countries of Europe, where people, w^omen as well as men, drink wine like water,
the use of spirituous liquors and alcoholism is little known. The temperance
movement in those countries is not directed against wine, but only against ardent
liquors, such as brandy and cordials. In fact, tlie governments of France, Italy
and Spain recognize so well the fact that wine-drinking is to be encouraged that
they favor wines in their laws.
That great President, Thomas Jefferson, when an attempt was made to place
a high tax on wine, wrote: "I rejoice as a moralist at the prospect of a reduction
of duties on wine by our National Legislature. . . . NO NATION . IS
DRUNKEN WHERE WINE IS CHEAP, AND NONE SOBER WHERE DEAR-
NESS OF WINE SUBSTITUTES ARDENT SPIRITS AS ITS COMMON BEV-
ERAGE."
WINE AS THE NATIONAL DRINK.
There is an old and very true saying that "We are largely what we eat and
drink." As with the individual, so it is with the nation. "Tell me what is the
every-day food and drink of a nation," says the historian, "and I will tell you
what its character and standing ai-e in civilization."
Tlius, the most civilized people have tlie best foods, and they also have the
best drink, which is wine. That wine is the "best drink" for the individual
and the nation may be seen by comparing it witli other national drinks, such as
tea, coffee and strong liquors. Compare, if you please, two svich countries as
China and France — one the largest consumer of tea, the other the largest con-
sumer of wine. Y/ho are the happy, liglit-hearted, thrifty people in the world,
and who are the heavy, sombre and dull-witted ? Do not the former live in the
wine-growing countries of Europe, where every man, woman and child drinks
wine freely three times a day at their meals? The millions of French and Italian
peasants, with their simple meal of bread, or maccaroni and cheese, and a flagon
rf wine, are as happy and contented as the majority of the better fed and better
diessed workmen of our own land. Why not combine the prosperity of one with
the contentment of the other? Why not make wine our national beverage, and
use it as it should be used— namely, at the table with our meals?

VIEW OF "WINEHAVEN." ON SAN FRANCISCO BAY.
The Largest Winery Plant in the World, Covering An Area of Forty-seven Acres.
ANY of our readers will be greatly surprised and inttrested to learn that the largest
winery plant, not only in the United States but dn the world, is located in Cali-
fornia, across the Bay from San Francisco. It forms the centre of the great wine
industry of that State. Such an institution is a monument to American enterprise,
well as to the California wine industry, which represents a total of 250,000
acres of vineyards, and millions of dollars interested in wine cellars, buildings, machinery,
warehouses, and stocks of wines, etc. A short account of tha great establishment at
"Winehaven" will therefore be of much interest.
The property consists of 47 acres of land, with a frontage of 2,000 feet on San Fran-
cisco Bay. A wharf, 1,800 feet long, runs to deep water, and from there the largest
ocean-going vessels can be loaded with wines and brandies for New York and other Eastern
cities, and for all foreign countries, even to India, China, and Japan, which are good
customers for California wines. The Richmond Belt Railway connects the plant with the
transcontinental lines.
The main building, which will also be used for storage, is constructed of steel, concrete
and brick. It wiM be, when fully completed, SOO feet in length and 200 feet in width; two
stories and basement. The total storage capacity will be for 10,000,000 gallons of wine.
Nearby is an immense winery and fermenting pla,nt, 600 by 150 feet, with a capacity
for crushing Or pressing 25,000 tons of grapes in a season. The location is such that the
supply of grapes is brouglit largely by water from different sections of the State, and the
greatest care is taken to have the grapes arrive in perfect condition.
Among the other structures are a large distillery for producing millions of gallons
of brandy; a sherry house, 80 by 100 feet in size, and heated by steam or hot air;
a large bottling establishment for bottMng the fine wines sold under the name and label
of the Ca'ifornia Wine Association; a complete cooperage and box-making plant; a plant
for making unfermented grape juice — in brief, a great establishment fcr everything which
is connected with the production and diatribvition of wines a.nd even the by-products of the
grape. In fact, one feature of the plant is the part devoted to the utilization of the by-
products, such as the seeds, etc., and the production of cream of tartar, etc.
The grounds around "Winehaven" have been laid out and will be beautified by land-
scape garJoners, and there is a large hotel, called the "Winehaven House," where visitors
and guests will always be made welcome and properly entertained. As something unijue
in the wine Industry of the world, "Winehaven" is sure to be visited every year by
thousands of sightseers and tourists.

an asset. Every part of every standard size
Locker is made to gauge. Each Locker has an
individual top, shelf and bottom. All doors,

interchangeable; therefore, additions or altera-
tions in arrangement can be made at any time
without cutting or fitting, or expert assistance.
Additional parts for extending or rearranging
can be procured at any time without delay. The
simplicity of our Lockers reduces the cost of
erection which should be given consideration
in comparing prices. In order to save trans-
portation charges Lockers are shipped knocked

MR. BUSINESS MAN :
When you attempt to solve your own transportation problem — ^and
you will have to try its solution soon, if you want to keep abreast of
modern business development — you do not want the high-priced car, nor
the one that is complicated of design or difficult of operation.
You want the SIMPLEST there is, for in mechanics as well as in
business the SIMPLEST IS THE BEST AND MOST EFFICIENT as well as
the CHEAPEST.
Next time you meet a Maxwell motorist, stop him. Ask him how
he likes the three-point suspension, the multiple-disc clutch, the strong
shaft drive, and the many other features that are exclusive Maxwell inven-
tions, and imitated by our followers.
There is only one reply : The Maxwell is the SIMPLEST IN CON-
STRUCTION, and the MOST RELIABLE AND MOST ECONOMICAL IN
OPERATION.
Or ask us. Let me tell you all about the Maxwell, and the reasons
why our cars are SUPERIOR TO ANYTHING ON WHEELS.
If you have any use for transportation at all— every business man has
—it will pay you to investigate the Maxwell. Your automobile knowledge
is not complete without a thorough knowledge of the Maxwell line for 1908.

JOSEPH PULITZER.
'PERFORMANCE IS BETTER THAN PROMISE." WHAT THE WORLD HAS
ACCOMPLISHED DURING THE PAST TWENTY-FIVE YEARS.
Against its promises made a quarter of a century ago, promises not easy to keep, THE
WORLD to-day proudly writes the word— fulfilled! Fulfilled— because THE WORLD'S
heart has throbbed with the heart of the people and because the cry of the humblest
■citizen, native or adopted, if heard in a just cause, has never been unheeded. Fulfilled — ■
because "do right and fear not" was the motto adopted in May, 1SS8, when THE
WORLD passed into the hands of Mr. Joseph Pulitzer, and the public read at the head of
its editorial columns this memorable announcement:
"The entire WORLD newspaper property has been purchased by the undersigned, and
will, from this day on, be under different management — different in men, measures and
Tnethods; different in purpose, policy and principle; different in objects and interests;
different in sj-mpathies and convictions; different in head and heart.
"Performance is better than promise. Exuberant assurances are cheap. I make none.
I simply refer the public to the new WORLD itself, which henceforth shall be the daily
evidence of its own growing improvement, with forty-eight daily witnesses in its forty-
eight columns.
"There is room in this great and growing city for a journal that is not only cheap, but
bright; not only bright, but large; not only large, but truly democratic, dedicated to the
cause of the people rather than that of purse-potentates, devoted more to the news of the
New than the Old World; that will expose all fraud and sham, fight all public evils and
abuses; that will serve and battle for the people with earnest sincerity.
"In that cause and for that end solely the new WORLD is hereby enlisted and com-
nitted to the attention of the intelligent public. JOSEPH PULITZER."
From the day that Mr. Pulitzer made the foregoing pledge to the public THE WORLD
became one of the great journalistic forces in American life. Soon it outstripped all con-
temporaries and took the proud position of leader in the newspaper field— the place it holds
to-day — after two and a half decades of relentless, unceasing war against wrongs; the place
of a peerless, dominant moral power. Hundreds of standards of iniquity have been furled
and laid at the feet of THE WORLD when corruption in high circles has been fearlessly
attacked on right, left and centre by this journal of the people. Criminals have feared
THE WORLD, argus-eyed, as they have not dreaded the keenest professional detectives.
Political parties have trembled at its voice, and nations have recognized THE WORLD as
an influence for peace, good will and prosperity. Through its trained army of corres-
pondents— a news-gathering corps unparalleled in history for alertness and intelligence —
nothing is too small, if significant, to attract the Instant attention of THE WORLD,
and nothing is too great to make it swerve an instant from its line of duty when its
course has been decided.
Soon after Mr. Pulitzer's salutatory THE WORLD declared its ten Political Com-
mandments as representing its view of true Democracy, the sort for which it intended to
fight, caring nothing about being deemed politically "regular," if regularity be interpreted
as party fealtj', no matter to what extremes the so-called Democratic party might go. In
other words, it promised that no particular body of politicians, large or small, should
control it under the Pulitzer regime. Its principles and policies were then, as now, living
issues. THE WORLD demanded:
The taxation of luxuries.
The taxation of inheritances.
The taxation of monopolies.
The taxation of large Incomes.
The taxation of the privileges of corporations.
A tariff for revenue.
Reform of tlje civil service.
Punishment of corrupt office-holders, '
20 '-The -World.
Punishment of vote-buying.
Punishment of employers who coerce their employees in elections.
THE WORLD has kept these pledges of adherence td vital Democratic principles,
though often furiously assailed by politicians and by great "Democratic" party organs.
THE EVOLUTION OF THE WORLD,
Although old things passed away and all things became new in connection with THE
WORLD when Mr. Pulitzer purchased the paper, the journal had nevertheless had a long
and eventful career, which can be traced back to 1812, when, during America's war with
England, the National Advocate was born in New York, with Henry Wheaton, an eminent
scholar and exponent of international law, as founder. It became one of the foremost news-
papers in America. It supported President Monroe and the "doctrine" which is now
accepted as the basic principle of the foreign policy of America. The National Advocate
became the Enquirer in 1S26, Maj. M. M. Noah, editor. Three years later it was merged
with the Morning Courier, with the title of Courier and Enquirer, six editors, James Gordon
Bennett, James Watson Webb, Jam-es Brooks, James Lawson and Prosper M. Wetmore,
joining Major Noah.
Those were the days of the "blanket-sheet" newspapers, and rivalry took the form
of striving for the biggest sheet. In 1S53 the Courier and Enquirer's leading rival, the
Journal of Commerce, proudly boasted an issue on sheets measuring sixteen and one-third
square feet, and announced itself to be the "largest newspaper" in the world. »
In ISGO a one-cent religious daily was put forth. It was called The World. It had the
support of several rich men. It refused to print police or theatrical news or "scandals."
It rejected theatrical advertisements. The public did not take to it kindly. After an inglo-
rious career it was merged with the Courier and Enquirer, with its own name first in the
triple head. The World and Courier and Enquirer. A short time after two-thirds of the
title was dropped, leaving THE WORLD.
August Belmont, S, L. M. Barlow and other wealthy Democrats bought THE WORLD
in 1872. The brilliant Manton Marble became its editor, and it grew to be the most powerful
Democratic newspaper of the time. Mr. Marble became its sole owner after a while, but
sold the paper to a group of capitalists represented by William Henry Hurlbert, who became
its editor in 1S76.
THE WORLD in the meantime had come under the control of Jay Gould, Mr. Hurl-
bert remaining as editor. Self-announced as the leading organ of a great political party,
it really represented the interests of a speculator in railroads and a plutocrat in politics.
Of course, it lost influence. It was discredited by the people. Its circulation dwindled
until it was less than 10,000 in the city. It was bankrupt by forsaking the paths of true
journalism. It was used as a private enterprise for personal ends. It did not trust the
people. The people did not trust it.
It was at this point in THE WORLD'S career, when its very existence was threatened,
that the unexpected happened, or, to put it more accurately, was accomplished by Joseph
Pulitzer. With unbounded faith in the people, and also with audacity and faith in himself.
Mr. Pulitzer bought the paper, saluted his new constituency, and ordered from R. Hoe &
Companj- the largest and fastest press they could construct in the quickest possible time.
The great printing press builder cautiously asked, "How do you know you shall need it?"
"I must need it to succeed, and I shall succeed," was the reply. But the builder of
printing presses, with the narrow income and narrowing credit of THE WORLD, stipulated
that before the new press left the Hoe shops Mr. Pulitzer should give him a mortgage on
the entire plant in the office. In violation of the cardinal principle of life never to give
his note or other obligation to any man, Mr, Pulitzer assented. Long before the new, largest
and fastest press was completed a second was ordered, and was necessary. Mr. Hoe
repudiated his own bargain and refused to accept the mortgage. From that day to this
the greatest printing press makers in the world have been kept busy studying and inventing
larger, faster presses to accomplish the task of printing the constantly growing editions of
THE WORLD. The first "quadruple press" ever built was for THE WORLD. The
biggest "sextuple" was designed immediately after, and then the mammoth "octuple presses"
■were invented for THE WORLD. They were too big for any newspaper but THE WORLD
at the time, but were not quite as fast as were needed to print the "foremost New York
newspaper," grown in circulation from less than 20,000 to nearly 1,000,000 per day.
THE BIRTH OF THE PULITZER BUILDING.
The wonderful growth of THE WORLD soon made the securing of more ample quarters
\
The World. ^1
a necessity. To meet this fteed Mr. Pulitzer purchased on April 10, 18S8, for $630,000 what
was then known as the French's Hotel property, long the site of a famous hostelry, on which
stands the magnificent home of THE WORLD. The spot is historic, and its occupancy can
be tr:icGd to 1642, when one Van de Grist and Govert Loockerman, of New Amsterdam, were
g^ranted a large tract of land which included this property. Loockerman's daughter Elsie,
alter having been for some years the wife of Peter Corneilson Vanderveer (who built the
first three-masted schooner and the first brick building in Manhattan Island), became a
widow, and later married Jacob Leisler, who grew rich and influential, but who mixed in
politics until he was accused of treason, and died on a gibbet erected where the Pulitzer
Building now towers. Leisler's property was confiscated and was later restored to his
heirs, the stigma of treason against him having been removed. In Revolutionary days the
old commons- opposite the Pulitzer Building were the scene of many stirring gatherings,
and history now fixes them with reasonable accuracy as the place where Xathan Hale,
regretting that he had but one life to give for his country, was hanged by the Bi'itish as
a spy. Tammany's first hall was built in ISll on the corner of Nassau and Frankfort
streets, the site adjoining that of the Pulitzer Building. In 1849 French's Hotel was
opened and was continued until Mr. Pulitzer bought the property and demolished the noted
structure to make place for the Pulitzer Building of to-day, an edifice largely designed
by Mr. Pulitzer.
The preliminary work for the foundations of the new structure was begun on June 20,
1889. The corner-stone was laid on October 10, 1889, by Master Joseph Pulitzer, jr., then
four years old. Bishop Tuttle, of Missouri, made the invocation, and Chauncey M. Depew
delivered the oration. Gov. David B. Hill, Daniel Dougherty and others made addresses.
From Mr. Pulitzer, who was ill at "Wiesbaden, Germany, came the following cablegram,
which was read:
"God grant that this structure be the enduring home of a newspaper forever unsatisfied
with merely printing news — forever fighting every form of wrong; forever independent;
forever advancing in enlightenment and progress; forever wedded to truly democratic
ideas; forever aspiring to be a moi'al force; forever rising to a higher pla^e of perfection
as a public institution.
"God grant that THE WORLD may forever strive toward the highest ideals; be bot'a
a daily school-house and a daily forum; both a daily teacher and a daily tribune; an instru-
ment of justice; a terror to crime; an aid to education; an exponent of true Americanism.
"Let it ever be remembered that this edifice owes its existence to the public; that its
architect is popular favor; that its moral corner-stone is love of liberty and justice; that
its every stone comes from the people and represents public approval for public services
rendered.
"God forbid that the vast army following the standard of THE WORLD should in this
or in future generations ever find it faithless to those ideas and moral principles to which
alone it owes its life and without which I would rather have it perish. ^
"JOSEPH PULITZER."
The readers of THE WORLD to-day who were its readers twenty-five years ago know
how well Mr. Pulitzer's fervent prayer, flashed under the Atlantic, has been answered.
The aim of THE WORLD has never changed. The army that followed it then has grown
to mightj' legions, and is still growing. Where THE WORLD is willing to lead, millions
are always glad to go, because they have faith in THE WORLD and THE WORLD has
faith in them.
On December 10, 1890, occurred the formal opening of the Pulitzer Building in the pres-
ence of the most notable assemblage that ever came together for such a purpose. Among
those present were Governor Hill, of New York; Governor Beaver, of Pennsylvania; Gov-
ernor Abbett, of New Jersey; Governor Bulkeiey, of Connecticut; Governor Campbell, of
Ohio; Governor Davis, of Rhode Island; Governor-elect Amsden, of New Hampshire; Gov-
ernor-elect Morris, of Connecticut, and Governor-elect Pattison, of Pennsylvania; Senator
Calvin A. Brice, Congressmen Mills, McMillin. Blount, Crisp. Wilson, Tarnsey. Caruth,
Springer, Flower, Allen, Cooper, Turner, McCarthy, Dunphy, Cummings and Fitch; Mayor
Grant and the heads of the various city departments; Warner Miller. George W. Childs.
Joseph C. Hendrix, Col. Charles H. Taylor, and many other eminent men. Irrespective of
political affiliations, from all parts of the country. In all, some 7,000 persons inspected
the great building that night, being guided through it by members of the staff of THE
WORLD, a collation being served in the reception-rooms on one of the upper floors.
The speech-making included addresses by Governors Hill, Abbett, Beaver, Campbell

way, and Congressmen Flower, Mills, McMillin, Wilson, Caruth, Allen, Cooper and Turner,
and Judge Manson, of St. Liouls.
Since that memorable early Winter day seventeen years ago the Pulitzer Building has
been visited by people from every clime, and hundreds of thousands have viewed from its
dome the marvellous panorama stretching in all directions, and have also witnessed in
THE WORLD'S various departments the making of a great newspaper.
THE NEW W^ORLD'S FIRST ACCOMPLISHMENT.
As hundreds of thousands of eyes daily turn with admiring gaze to the Bartholdi Statue
of Liberty Enlightening the World In New York Harbor, and as millions of eyes daily see
the emblem chosen nearly twenty-five years ago to fittingly grace the first page of THE
WORLD, older readers remember with pride the incident which gave THE WORLD the
proud right to adopt this emblem — an incident of international interest.
Three days after Mr. Pulitzer had assumed control, THE WORLD attempted to
raise funds by a popular subscription to build a pedestal for the Bartholdi Statue, the
beautiful and colossal bronze figure given by the people of France to the people of America
as a token of endearing friendship between two liberty loving nations. The American com-
mittee had failed to arouse the public from apathy as to the project, and the press sneered
at the situation. THE "WORLD'S early efforts also failed, as its limited circulation did
not reach the masses, which it was confident would respond when called upon to aid so
patriotic and worthy a cause. Twenty months later, on March 16, 1SS5, it again took up
the work with energy, being able to appeal to thousands where it had before appealed to
hundreds. The rich had remained indifferent and failed to contribute, but in four months,
through THE WORLD, the people gave more than $100,000, which represented the free-will
offerings of 120,000 men, women and children. With this money was built the noble
pedestal, on which "Liberty" has stood for nearly twenty- two years at the gate of
the nation's metropolis. The inauguration ceremonies on October 22, 1S86, were
attended by President Cleveland and his Cabinet, the Governors of many States, members
of diplomatic corps, and many distinguished American guests; also by a notable deputation
from France, including M. Auguste Bartholdi, the statue's creator; Count Ferdinand de
Lesseps, Admiral Jaures, General Pelissier and other high representatives of French official
and civil life. There was a naval parade in the harbor and a huge land parade, the latter
being reviewed by President Cleveland and the French guests at Madison Square. On
Bedloe's Island, the site of the statue. Count de Lesseps, on behalf of the Franco- American
Union, made an address. Senator William M. Evarts made the presentation speech, and
President Cleveland the speech of acceptance. The French plenipotentiary, M. Lefaivre,
also made an address, and the commemorative oration was by Chauncey M. Depew. The
Rev. Dr. R. S. Starrs offered a prayer, and the benediction was pronounced by Bishop
Henry C. Potter.
THE ELECTION OF CLEVELAND AS PRESIDENT.
The most striking example of THE WORLD'S loyalty to Democratic tenets at a time
when such an illustration was sadly needed was its advocacy of the nomination of Grover
Cleveland, then Governor of New York, by the National Democratic Convention for Presi-
dent of the United States. Mr. Pulitzer, realizing that a turning point in natioaal history
had been reached, and that opportunity for success was knocking at every true Democratic
door, had. before obtaining control of THE WORLD, steadily urged in his St. Louis Post-
Dispatch the nomination of Cleveland. The new WORLD, daily gaining influence in New
York, found itself bitterly opposed in its Cleveland attitude by John Kelly, of New York,
Tammany Hall and others to whom the independence of Governor Cleveland was decidedly
distasteful. Nothing daunted, THE WORLD threw down the gauntlet and followed its
challenge with a vigorous battle for Cleveland's nomination.
■John Kelly declared that Tammany Hall would not attempt to help elect Cleveland if
he was nominated. THE WORLD said Kelly did not mean what he said and continued its
fight. When Samuel J. Tilden was the Democratic leader and Cleveland was Mayor of
Buffalo THE WORLD had picked Cleveland as Tilden's logical successor and as a Presi-
dential candadate, and it did not propose to strike its colors to Tammany. Kelly's threat,
however, had influenced delegates from other States, as Kelly was the New York leader,
and they felt that success in New York was a vital necessity. THE WORLD took upon
The World. 23
itself the task of disproving Kelly's statement, exposed the pretence that Tilden opposed
Cleveland, and brought forth every item of evidence to show that Cleveland, by bis steady
independence of the party bosses, had made himself the strongest man in the State before
the people.
On the eve of the National Convention THE WORLD told why it favored the inde-
pendent Governor for President in au editorial under the head, "Why THE WORLD Likes
Cleveland." It said:
"He is a poor man.
"He came from plain, common people.
"He has no so-called aristocratic lineage or illustrious ancestors, but OWes everything
he is to his own efforts and own character.
"He has clean hands and a spotless record.
"He is a poor politician, because an absolutely honest reformer.
"He has no lifelong political i-ecord to defend."
Mr. Pulitzer's heart and soul were in this first great public service to the whole
American people, and he went to the convention as a reporter for his own paper, and his
graphic dispatches from the convention scene gave primacy to THE WORLD'S reports.
The New York delegation had been divided by the State convention between Tammany
Hall and its ti-aditional opponents, but the persistent work of THE WORLD finally brought
the opposing camps together to cast the entire vote of the Empire State for Cleveland,
Insuring his nomination.
It has always been generally conceded that THE WORLD, more than any other agency,
contributed to Cleveland's success. From convention day to election day it was persistent,
insistent and indefatigable in Cleveland's behalf. History has told how Cleveland won
by a narrow margin after what was perhaps the fiercest campaign ever waged in the
United States. A change of 700 votes in New York State would have elected James G.
Blaine. Mr. Blaine frankly expressed the belief, after the election, that the use instantly
made by THE WORLD of the millionaires' banquet to him, which it cartooned as
"Belshazzar's Feast," and of the tactless "Rum, Romanism and Rebellion" speech of the
Rev. Dr. Burchard on the eve of election influenced far more than enough votes in this
city to decide the result.
Writing to the twentieth anniversary number of THE WORLD, Mr. Cleveland said:
"The New York WORLD is just closing twenty years of work under its present owner-
ship and management. I have quite often differed with it very broadly, both as to things
advocated and its methods of advocacy. It has condemned and still deprecates some of my
public and official acts which to the day of my death I shall recall with the greatest satis-
faction, and though it has quite recently dealt with me in such a kind and partial manner
as to challenge my grateful appreciation, even in this I must insist that to some extent at
least it has been led away from a correct estimate of actual conditions.
"I would, however, be ashamed if any differences between us made it difficult for me
to cheerfully testify to the notable service which this great newspaper has rendered within
the last twenty years to the cause of Democracy. Concerning this I can speak largely from
personal knowledge and observation. I never can lose the vividness of my recollection of
the conditions and incidents attending the Presidential campaign of 1SS4, how thoroughly
Republicanism was intrenched, how brilliantly it was led, how arrogant it was, and how
confidently it encouraged and aided a contingent of deserters from the Democratic ranks.
And I recall not less vividly how brilliantly and sturdily THE WORLD then fought for
Democracy; and in this, the first of its great party fights under present ownership, it was
here, thei-e and everywhere in the field, showering deadly blows upon the enemy. It was
steadfast in zeal and untiring in effort until t-he battle was won; and it was won against
such odds and by so slight a margin as to reasonably lead to the belief that no contributing
aid could have been safely spared. At any rate, the contest was so close it may be said
without reservation that if it had lacked the forceful and potent advocacy of Democracy
at that time by the New York WORLD the result might have been reversed."
Daniel S. Lament, private secretary to Grover Cleveland, Secretary of War in the second
Cleveland Administration and manager of Mr, Cleveland's earlier campaign, contributed
this "appreciation" of THE WORLD'S part in the Cleveland Presidential campaign of 1884;
"In the campaign THE WORLD was the great Democratic newspaper in New York
City battling for Mr. Cleveland's election. It took the lead in the fight. Mr. Pulitzer
jpereonally participated in the campaign, and in the result, which was decided by a narrov^
24 The World.
margin of 600 votes, too much credit cannot be given THE WORLD, It bore the leading
share among the newspapers."
OTHER NOTABLE POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS.
Five days after Mr. Pulitzer assumed direction of THE WORLD he commenced, in a
leading editorial, a fight for an income tax, declaring it to be "the fairest and most demo-
cratic tax a government can impose," and saying: "An income tax exempting incomes
below $4,000 or $5,000 could not touch anybody to whom payment could be a serious burden."
Many newspapers and individuals denounced this new idea as revolutionary and socialistic.
THE WORLD, however, patiently and forcefully urged it as "essentially a people's tax."
and slowly but surely the proposition grew in popular favor, until eleven years afterward
President Cleveland signed a law providing for just such an income tax as THE WORLD
had advocated for more than a decade. The friends of this law praised THE WORLD for
having secured its passage by Congress, and the enemies of the new statute were severe in
their criticism, blaming THE WORLD for their defeat and thus paying it a high compli-
ment. The United States Supreme Court, by a vote of 5 to 4, declared the law unconsti-
tutional because of its construction. Subsequent Congresses have been hostile to a revival
of the measure in constitutional form, but THE WORLD'S attitude remains unchanged, and
THE WORLD believes that the day is not far distant when an income tax will add to the
nation's revenues and permit a reduction of other taxes.
When Judge Maynard was nominated for the Court of Appeals he had been guilty of a
gross offence to the law by abstracting an election return from the Secretary of State's
office two years before in the interest of a political master. THE WORLD began the
agitation in favor of "taking the bench out of politics and politics out of the bench." It
called upon the people to defend the honor of the State and preserve the purity of the
bench by defeating Maynard. And they did defeat him by a majority of 101,000 votes.
So firmly had this WORLD idea of a non-political bench since become fixed in the
public mind that when the Republicans refused to indorse the renomination of Judge Gray
in 1902, although their candidate was an exceptionally good man, he was defeated, and
that at an election when the rest of the Republican ticket was successful.
With an earnestness that commanded the respect of the thinking men of the land, THE
WORLD used its utmost power to avert the growth of the free silver movement, and when
the Chicago National Convention, in a fit of hysterics, nominated William J. Bryan, THE
WORLD, which during all its eighty-three years of existence had never supported any but
Democratic candidates for President, refused to yield to popular hysteria and repudiated
both Bryan and free silver. It declared that "the proposal to debase the currency to the
standard of a few half-civilized countries against the standard and experiences of the most
enlightened nations cannot stand the trial of a four months' discussion." In the face of
great party enthusiasm, and with great financial loss involved, it made an uncompromising
campaign against political heresy, a heresy which meant national disaster and disgrace.
THE WORLD put country above party and won. And it foretold in "A Judicial Forecast"
on October 21, two weeks before election, the exact result in the Electoral College, naming
the States that were "certain for McKinley."
THE WORLD predicted the nomination of President Roosevelt to succeed himself in
1904, and urged the nomination of Grover Cleveland as the logical candidate to oppose him
and as the only man likely to defeat Roosevelt. When, instead, Judge Alton B. Parker was
nominated, THE WORLD, while it supported him as the Democi-atic standard-bearer, read
and truthfully reflected the signs of the hour and never prognosticated his success. It fought
for him on principle, regardless of result, recognizing no connection between political success
and moral convictions. Toward President Roosevelt THE WORLD has always been fair,
while opposing much that he has stood for most conspicuously as his party leader. It
praised him for maintaining the peace in Venezuela, defended his hospitality to Booker T.
Washington, applauded his independence in the Northern Securities warfare, and has sup-
ported him whenever his attitude or achievement in the interests of the public have deserved
commendation.
A GREAT INTERNATIONAL SERVICE BY THE WORLD,
The consistencyM)f THE WORLD in its never-ending fight against jingoism and the
splendid results of sticking to its colors was demonstrated in 189.5, when stern duty to itself
and to humanity compelled it to instantly and passionately oppose President Cleveland's
attitude in the Venezuelan crisis. It saw his serious error and the unhappy consequences

toward twice making Mr. Cleveland President. His message to Congress had aroused a
war clamor contrary to reason and common-sense, and there was grave danger that America
and Great Britain might become engaged in conflict. The voice of the jingoes here and in
England grew daily louder— raving for war— because of a boundary dispute between Vene-
zuela and Great Britain. THE WORLD called the message "a grave blunder," and declared
that Cleveland had falsely interpreted the Monroe Doctrine. He had asked the Senate for a
commission to settle the dispute which he had not been asked to settle. The paper appealed
to the sanity and common-sense of the people, and its editor sent 500 cable and telegraphic
messages to the leaders of thought in the British Isles and in America. Next day it pub-
lished responses from the leading public men, prelates and statesmen of England, messages
of peace and good will. Gladstone said, "Only common-sense is necessary." The Prince
of Wales, now King Edward VII., forsook traditions of royal etiquette and addressed a
friendly message to America through THE WORLD, expressing his hope of a peaceful settle-
ment of the imbroglio. Pea,ce was restored, and the plaudits and thank offerings of the
whole English-speaking race poured in upon THE WORLD for staying the hands of the two
nations just ready to imbrue them in each other's blood. Mr. Cleveland's Venezuelan
commission made no report. The dispute was arbitrated, and England and America joined
in organizing an International Court of Arbitration.
THE WORLD'S service in averting "bloody v/ar" was recognized by the Peace and Arbi-
tration Societies of Great Britain, and in evidence of the gratitude of that portion of the
Englisn-speaking people who live in the British realm for that service these societies
waited upon Mr, Joseph Pulitzer, then in London, and presented an address to him, the
late Cardinal Vaughan being the spokesman.
Of THE WORLD'S fight Joseph Chamberlain said:
"THE WORLD led public thought when it secured expressions of opinion from the
leading men of America and Great Britain. It performed an inestimable service to the
Snglish-speaking people of the whole world."
The cause of universal arbitration was far advanced by the trium.ph thus won, and
hastened the movement which culminated in the establishment of the International Arbitra-
tion Commission at The Hague.
NATIONAL CREDIT RESTORED BY THE WORLD.
On another vitally impoi-tant occasion in 1S95, when THE WORLD realized that the
bond policy of President Cleveland was inimical to the interests of the people, it did not
hesitate to show the President's error. THE WORLD still classes among its greatest
triumphs its action at that time in the smashing of the "bond ring" and the restoration
of the national credit by turning the searchlights of "publicity" upon the project of the
Administration to sell $100,000,000 worth of bonds to the Morgan syndicate of capitalists at
a figure many millions lower than similar bonds were held at in the market was one of
THE WORLD'S greatest triumphs.
It was announced from V.'ashrngton that this issue of 4 per cent, bonds had been sold
in bulk to the Morgan syndicate "at about the same price" paid for an issue of $0.3.300,000
worth the year before. The country was shocked, for THE WORLD had pointed out that
these bonds, sold to the same syndicate at 104%, were quoted on tlie market at IIS or more,
and the new bonds would surely bring as much. The sale, as planned, would not only
involve a gi-eat loss to the Treasury, but the very suggestion impaired the national credit
at home and abroad. It printed "An Appeal to the President." It showed him the nature •
of the blunder he was making, and entreated him to abandon the arrangement and "trust
the people," offering the bonds to them, assuring him that the people would quickly sub-
scribe for the whole issue and pay a higher price for them. In evidence of its own faith in
the people THE WORLD pledged itself to take $1,000,000 worth at the highest market
price. THE WORLD stood alone for fourteen days in defence of the nation's honor and
credit, printing from thirty to forty columns daily of arguments and appeals. It sent mes-
sages to 10.370 bankers In all parts of the country. It received 7,130 replies, offering to
take more than $300,000,000 in bonds at the market price. That settled it. President Cleve-
land rejected the syndicate's contract. The "bond ring" was smashed. The bonds were
offered at public sale, and the people bid for almost six times the amount of the Issue, or,
to be precise, wanted to buy not $1,000,000 worth of bonds, but $558,269,850. Over 800 bids
at 110 or better were received, whcre*Mr. Morgan had offered only 1041^. The head of the
smashed syndicate betrayed the "deal" by bidding 110.6877 for all or any part of the Issue—
$6,000,000 more than his syndicate would have paid under the "arrangement." The whole
issue was disposed of at an average price of nearly 112, netting $6,888,836 more to the
Se The WorU.
Treasury than would have been received had the secret deal been consummated. THE
WORLD kept its promise, taking $1,000,000 worth of the bonds and paying $1,130,000 in
gold for them.
THE WORLD AND THE BOER WAR.
Following its splendid victory in the cause of peace and arbitration in the Venezuelan
boundary controversy, THE WORLD was the guiding spirit in an effort to avert the South
African conflict in 1900. On September 27, 1889, President Krugcr, in THE WORLD,
summed the issues from the Boer viewpoint and alleged that the crisis was due to certain
British residents "to whom the very existence of the republic is an eyesore," and who, not
content with the best mining laws in the world, wished also to have complete control of
legislation and administration, the destruction of the republic, and complete control of the
richest mines in the world." He concluded sadly that "we have no such powerful friend
as you proved to be to Venezuela and other republics. We have strong faith that the
cause of freedom and republicanism will triumph in the end." THE WORLD cabled Presi-
dent Kruger's message in full to Joseph Chamberlain, British Secretary for the Colonies,
who was quick to reply with a reference to the British Blue Book for his side of the
controversy.
President Kruger answered through THE WORLD that his Government had ever been
ready to submit the dispute to arbitration, and suggested that a board of arbitration be
selected, two members by England, two by the Transvaal, and the fifth, by the President
of the United States or the President of Switzerland, concluding with: "We have yielded
everything but the life of the republic. We wish most earnestly for arbitration to prevent a
war which would be an outrage against religion and humanity."
THE WORLD immediatelj' set going the movement for arbitration, which resulted in
the most powerful petition ever drawn to President McKinley, asking him to offer the
kindly offices of the American Government in mediation of the dispute which had reached
a stage that threatened the existence of two sister republics.
President Steyn, of the Orange Free State, cabled his grateful indorsement of THE
WORLD'S effort for peace and urging the necessity for speedy action.
Premier W. R. Schreiner, of the British Cape Colony, cabled from Cape Town his appre-
ciation and sympathy with the movement for a peaceful settlement of the South African
difficulties.
Archbishop Croke cabled: "Avert war by all honorable means."
Cardinal Logue said: "I am most anxious for peace."
The Archbishop of York, Archbishop of Canterbury, Right Hon. Leonard Courteney,
M. P.; Michael Davitt, and other prelates, statesmen and public men of England, indorsed
THE WORLD'S effort to secure peace, while the signers of the petition to President
McKinley in this country made it the most formidable document of the kind and of the most
representative feeling since the Declaration of Independence. Among the signers were
ex-Senators George F. Edmunds and John Sherman, Archbishop Ireland, Gen. O. O. Howard,
President Jordan, of Leland Stanford L^niversity; Donald G. Mitchell; Mayor Phelan, of
San Francisco; President Warren, of Boston University; Frederic R. Coudert, ex- Vice-
President Adlai E. Stevenson, ex-Senators Manderson and Ingalls. ex-Iiepresentative Breck-
inridge, John P. Altgeld, Augustus Van Wyck, William, B. Hornblower, Ernest H. Crosby,
T. Estrada Palma, Carl Schurz, Horace Boies, J. Sterling Morton, Archbishops Kain and
Christie and sixteen Bishops of the Roman Catholic Church, Bishops Potter, Dudley.
Whittle, Hare and fourteen other Protestant Episcopal Bishops, ninety university and college
presidents, forty Federal and State judges, the Governors of thirty-five States, one hundred
and eight Senators and Congressmen, State officers, mayors, editors, clergymen, lawyers,
business and professional men, and thousands of others of lesser note. After this petition
had been indorsed by a great mass meeting in Carnegie Hall, New York, the paper was
taken by a representative delegation to President McKinley, who declined to offer his
services as mediator unless formally asked to do so by the disputants. President Kruger,
fearing further delay, then boldly warned England that unless troops were withdrawn by a
fixed hour war would begin, and served notice to civilization through THE WORLD in
words that have already become historic:
"The republics are determined that if they must belong to England, a price will be paid
which will stagger humanity."
Then came the clash of arms. Having done all it could to avert the war, THE
WORLD now turned its attention to its next highest duty— that of presenting the earliest,
most graphic and complete report of each movement in the war. It retained Lieut. Winstoo
The World. 27
spencer Churchill, the talented son of Lord and Lady Randolph Churchill, with the Ameri-
can blood of the Jex-omes in his veins, as its special correspondent in the field.
It presented to its readers an immense map of the section of South Africa which was
the scene of the conflict, with carefully compiled descriptive statistics of the country. It
printed comprehensive articles on Cecil Rhodes, the uncrowned diamond king and maker
of modern Africa; the war itself, by Lieutenant-General Schofield; the ai-ms and marks-
manship of the Boers, by Maxim, and life in Boerland, by H. C. Hillegas, the American
authority on South African matters. Lieutenant Churchill was taken prisoner by the Boers,
and E. F. Knight, one of the ablest war correspondents on earth, took his place, only to be
wounded at the famous fight at Belmont. He heroically dictated a graphic account of that
babtle, the best account that came over the cable. John Stuart, a third correspondent of
THE WORLD, was cut off by the Boers at Ladysmith. THE WORLD presented the fullest
and earliest news from the beginning of hostilities.
THE SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR RECORD.
During the many months that preceded the outbreak of the Spanish-American war
THE WORLD chronicled the fullest and most accurate accounts of incidents in Cuba's long
struggle for freedom. It published the sigrned statements of General Gomez, Captain-Gen-
eral Weyler, Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, Marshal Campos, Sagasta, Blanco, Harris Taylor, former
Minister to Spain, Gen. Julio Sanguilly, President Cisneros and others. It was largely
through THE WORLD that the American people first learned the truth about the barbaric
captivity of the reconcentrados who were driven into the Cuban cities by General Weyler —
a condition which led to diplomatic notes between the United States and Spain and to an
offer of autonomy and greater liberty for Cuba by Spain. THE WORLD was especially
invoked by Cubans to make known their terms and point the way to peace. Marshal
Campos expressed through THE WORLD from Madrid his approval of reforms proposed
by Spain. General Gomez, in THE Vv^ORLD, declared Cuba's ultimatum— liberty and noth-
ing else. At midnight, on September 29, 1897, THE WORLD was the first to inform Senor
Dupuy de Lome, the Spanish Minister, of a ministerial crisis in Spain. On January 12,
1897, THE WORLD, fifty days in advance of any other newspaper, outlined the Presi-
dent's offer of mediation, and predicted that both Spain and Cuba would reject intervention.
THE WORLD, too, predicted the deposing of Weyler, Blanco's return to Cuba, the over-
turning of the Azcarraga ministry, and the organization of a Liberal Government in Spain,
with Sagasta at its head.
During the Spanish-American war THE WORLD easily led all its competitors. Its
average circulation through the war was 1,300,000 a day, and during the year 5,000,000 a
week. In some of the city schools it was regarded as a text-book of current history, its
great "beat" in giving the first news of Dewey's victory in Manila Bay will never be
forgotten.
When war with Spain was declared THE W^ORLD called upon the people of Greater
New York to fling the starry banner of freedom to the winds on an appointed day, and a
hundred thousands flags made the city bright and beautiful on April 21, 1898, "Flag Day,"
and aroused the patriotism of the city to fighting pitch. THE WORLD employed the finest
despatch boat in the service, the Triton, and in this vessel its correspondent, Sj'lvestcr
Scovel, performed most valuable scouting services for Admiral Sampson. The steamer Three
Friends was also employed on many venturesome voyages. THE WORLD'S special war
correspondents were Henry N. Cary, Sylvester Scovel, Stephen Crane, A. C. Kenealy, F.
H. Nichols, George Bronson Rea and Charles H. Thrall in Cuba and Porto Rico, and E. W.
Harden and John Fay in Manila. Some of their achievements are treated elsewhere In this
brief review of THE WORLD'S accomplishments. To those stories may be added these
incidents: THE WORLD sent an expedition to Gen. Maximo Gomez with important
despatches and supplies. When the plaints of volunteers at Camp Thomas, telling of hard
fare and no delicacies, came up from Chickamauga, THE WORLD headed a movement
which resulted in the sending of a train loaded with all sorts of comforts for the New
York soldiers in camp. The Spanish flag captured at Manila, the first trophy of the war,
was sent to THE WORLD and was displayed in front of the Pulitzer Building. Michael
Davitt, the Irish statesman, cabled to THE WORLD his views of England's attitude
toward us. Gen. O. O. Howard reported for THE WORLD from Camp Alger. Gen. Joe
Wheeler wrote his description of the Santiago campaign. Aguinaldo, the leader of the
Filipinos, addressed the American people through THE WORLD August 2.'5. General Mer-
ritt cabled the story of the battle of Manila August 26, and Admiral Dewey expressed
thanks to the people for the commendation on the .same day. General Shafter published an
exclusive story of hi§ campaign in THE WORLD of September 2. General Miles gave hig
28 TJie World.
story of that affair to THE WORLD September S. Capt. Charles E. Clark, of the Oregon,
told how he made the 14,000-mile sail around the Horn from San Francisco to Key West.
THE WORLD discovered and first revealed that an American and an English firm had sold
mines and the apparatus to operate them to the Spanish Government and delivered the
goods at Havana in 1897. This, in the face of the Spanish denial that ther.e ■were any
such appliances at Havana. Admiral Cervera's flag lieutenant wrote a gi-aphic story of
the last hours on board the doomed Santiago fleet. Charles H. Thrall, a WORLD corre-
spondent^ moved in and out of Havana during the most perilous time at the Cuban capital,
bringing news of highest importance to the American Government. Signer Crispi, Italy's
great statesman, in an exclusive interview on April 26, said prophetically: "It is the end
of Spain." George Bronson Rea, an intrepid correspondent of THE WORLD in Porto Rico,
having escaped with difficulty to St. Thomas, was asked by cable how he escaped: "Police
surveillance, eluded vigilance, midnight, bicycle, horse, coach, schooner, smuggler's boat."
This is a fair sample of the chances taken in securing the most important and exclusive
news for THE WORLD. THE WORLD published an exact summary of President McKin-
ley's war message nearly two weeks before it was delivered to Congress, and, of course,
long in advance of any other paper. THE WORLD sent submarine divers to Havana to
rescue the bodies of the American sailors in the Maine, but the Spanish authorities would
not allow them to perform their mission of humanity. General Breckinridge wrote an
account of the battle of San Juan Hill. Rear-Admiral Jouett wrote a careful analysis of
the sea fight off Santiago. Hassam Enver Pasha, representative of the Turkish Govern-
ment at the front in the late war, and one of Europe's great generals, reviewed the war
for THE WORLD in a six-column article. Col. John Jacob Astor, the forty-millionaire
patriot soldier, wrote a personal narration of his experiences at Santiago.
THE WORLD also sent to Camp Wikoff sanitary experts, who denounced the camp as
unhealthy. It also showed that the remodelled old hulk Merrimac, a collier costing $192,000,
offered to and rejected by the Auxiliary Board in April, was sold to the War Department
in July for $342,000, or at an advance of $150,000 over her cost, and than towed into the
mouth of Santiago Bay by Hobson and sunk as a worthless vessel. It exposed the method
of letting contracts for army overcoats, the winning firm being mulcted by go-betweens in
the sum of $75,000 for "influence." It showed that eleven times as many men died fro:n
disease in the camps as were killed in battle, and quoted eminent authorities that nine
out of every ten of these deaths by disease might have been avoided by the War Depart-
ment. When the appointment of the investigation commission was announced THE
Vv'ORLD presented to the commission "A Record of Facts Concerning Camp Wikoff,"
arranged in chronological order, together with the names and addresses of witnesses by
whom each could be proven.
EXCLUSIVE NEWS IN THE WORLD.
While not a day passes in which THE WORLD does not contain exclusive news, known
in newspaper parlance as "beats" and "scoops," it has won an international reputation of
being first to print news of great importance on manj' occasions. One of the most notable
instances of this sort of enterprise was immediately after Dewey's victory in Manila Bay.
On Saturday, May 7, 1S9S, E. W. Harden, THE WORLD'S correspondent at Manila, having
steamed across the China Sea to Hong Kong, cabled the first authentic description of the
great naval duel between the American Asiatic Squadron under Commodore George Dewey
and the Spanish fleet under Admiral Montojo, and the complete annihilation of the eleven
vessels of the Spanish fleet inside the Bay of Manila, and between the belching forts of
Cavite and Corregidor. President McKinley got his first information of Dewey's victory
from THE WORLD. The news was recabled to London for the afternoon papers there.
Commodore Dewey congratulated THE WORLD in this hearty fashion: "I congratulate
THE WORLD on the excellence of its report. I congratulate THE WORLD on its enter-
prise in getting the first story as cabled by Mr. Harden before even my official report
reached Washington. I am still wondering how it got through, as I was under the impres-
sion I had control of the wires."
THE WORLD was twenty-four hours ahead of all its contemporaries in informing its
readers of the occupation of Santiago by General Shafter.
On April 10. 1898. THE WORLD announced exclusively that President McKinley had
decided to ask Congress for authority to intervene on behalf of Cuba, and Congress would
give its consent.
THE WORLD correspondents established the first newspaper camp on Cuban soil June
17, 1898, at Cuero, thirteen miles from Santiago.
The news of the Maine disaster Tvas first received by THE WORLD. To do it, its Havana
The World. 29
correspondent, Mr. Scovel got the Government officials to open the cable offices at night.
The first authentic information that the battle-ship had been blown up from the outside
%vas given to the people through THE "WORLD five days after the disaster, its intiepid
correspondent having made a personal examination of the broken keel of the ship. At the
same time it was demonstrated that the explosion of a submarine mine or torpedo under the
Maine could not have occurred without the connivance of the Spanish officials in charge of
tlie submarine explosives. Fifty physical proofs were given that the Maine was blown up.
This was corroborated by the official report of the Court of Inquiry a month later, while
THE WORLD published it exclusively on February 20, 1S9S. THE WORLD proposed this
epitaph for the Maine's martyrs: "They died that Cuba might be free."
On December 17, 1900, THE WORLD exclusively told of the severe illness of Queen
Victoria, and how her death might be hastened by the British defeats in South Africa; how
she was unable to sleep because of worry over the losses to British manhood in the war
for which she had never seen any justification.
It was first to give positive warning of the near approach of Queen Victoria's death,
stating on January IS that a special train was kept in readiness to convey the Prince of
Wales and the royal family to Cowes upon a moment's summons. An official announcement
confirmed the news next day. The Queen died four days later.
The complete list of the securities owned by the dead millionaire railway king, Cornelius
Vanderbilt, were first published in THE WORLD.
The important points in the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the Portcy
Rico cases — the most important decision handed down in a generation, establishing the
doctrine that "the Constitution follows the flag"— were first given to an anxiously waiting
nation by THE WORLD.
The public first learned through THE WORLD of the sinking of the French steamer La
Bourgogne, with all on board.
In 1S91, among many other items of exclusive news, was THE WORLD'S interview
with Sir William Gordon Gordon-Cumming immediately after his trial in the famed baccarat
case; also the announcement that the British Government had determined to prosecute
William Henry Hurlbert on a charge of perjury in the Gladys Evelyn case. THE WORLD
was tov.-ard the close of the same year the only paper to tell of the plot existing in Santiago
de Chile to burn the United States Legation in that city.
At the time of the death of Jay Gould, in 1S92, THE WORLD published the most com-
plete biography of the dead financier, and subsequently added many chapters to the facts
known about his achievements during life.
During December, 1802, while Panama Canal revelations were convulsing French
political life, THE WORLD told the American end of the story in a series of articles about
the canal, revealing incompetent and extravagant management, which could not fail to
bring disaster to the enterprise.
THE WORLD told exclusively on June 24, 1S93, of the unexpected meeting of Mrs.
Jefferson Davis, widow of the President of the Southern Confederacy, and Mrs. Ulysses S.
Grant at West Point. They had never met before, but greeted each other most cordially,
and spent considerable time in exchanging reminiscences of their famous husbands. The
incident excited great interest throughout the United States, and THE WORLD scored a
distinct news "beat."
The revolution in Brazil in 1893, which attracted the attention of the civilized world,
broke out during the first week of September. Almost immediately afterward THE
WORLD became conspicuous as the only paper publishing exclusive news direct from Rio,
in spite of the fact that an embargo had been put upon all news in Rio, and the cable and
telegra.ph lines were in the hands of the combatants.
One of the famous WORLD exclusives was the graphic description of the ramming of
he British battle-ship Victoria by the Camperdown, near Tripoli, June 23, 1893. The Victoria
was sunk. Admiral Sir George Tryon and hundreds of British officers and sailors went
down with her. The bare fact of the great tragedy was known in London, but for three
days the civilized world called in vain for the story. On that day a WORLD coi-respondent
reached Tripoli, and in the afternoon, in obedience to cabled instructions from THE
WORLD, cabled all the ghastly details— a powerful story. The story was immediately
cabled by THE WORLD to London, and then Queen Victoria, her Ministers and the Engli^ih
people first learned how Adm.iral Tryon and his battle-ship and crew were lost.
THE WORLD was the only American newspaper which had the foresight to send a cor-
respondent to Asia at the breaking out of the war between Japan and China, in 1895. He
cabled the famous "beat" describing, in graphic story, the naval battle in the Yellow Seg.
80 The World.
between two Pag:an navies, and later the four days' butchery of unarmed Chinamen at Port
Arthur. The Japanese tried to bribe THE "WORLD'S correspondent, 10,000 miles from home,
and offered to pay THE WORLD'S cable bills and give its correspondent a* monopoly of the
war news on condition that he refrain from sending his 10,000-word despatch describing the
Port Arthur massacre — a "news scoop" that thrilled and horrified the civilized world.
A trusted agent of THE WORLD in the Philippines visited Aguinaldo in January, 1001,
in the mountain fastness where Funston found and captured him later in the year, and
secured from him a long interview in which he set forth his aims and ambitions regarding
the Filipino people and their government, and stated the terms on which he would treat
with President McKinley for peace. This exclusive interview with the Filipino chieftain
was forwarded, uncensored, to THE WORLD.
In 1S93 the great question which was disturbing religious bodies all over the United
States was the opening of the World's Fair on Sunday. What was the attitude of Catholics,
who outnumbered any other denomination, was a question which THE WORLD solved by
securing a long and authoritative interview with Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore
and primate of the Catholic Church in the United States. This was published June 12. His
Eminence came out squarely in favor of opening the World's Fair on Sunday, saying that it
was the people's only day, and that innocent pleasures on the Sabbath were a necessity for
the thousands.
The first poll of Congress showing that the Sherman Silver law would be repealed was
taken by THE WORLD on June 17, 1893, A m.ajority of 175 members of the House were
pledged over their own signatures to THE WORLD to vote for repeal. The publication of
this poll had a quieting effect, the country being threatened with a financial panic, resulting
from a senseless scare, rather than from insolvency or inflation. Under these circumstances
THE WORLD decided to ascertain from presidents of the leading banks of the country the
exact facts as they saw them. The result was a long series of statements, published by
THE WORLD June 3. What the country at large thought of the situation was shown from
what bank managers in a score of cities in the South and West had to say about it.
MINOR BUT IMPORTANT ACCOMPLISHMENTS.
Many great newspapers would eulogize themselves upon performances w'hich THE
WORLD would merely deem natural and expected accomplishments by it day after day.
month after month, and year after year. In redeeming its pledge to fight public and
private wrongs, and to interest and instruct its readers, THE WORLD continually adds to
its long list of victories. It is impossible to mention more than a small fraction of such
triumphs, and of news-getting, in the limited space given to this review, but a score or two
of instances will be sufficient to prove the statement:
THE WORLD sent a correspondent, Nellie Bly, rushing around the globe in ISSl) In 12
days, 6 hours, 11 minutes and 14 seconds, to show that the imaginary record of Jules
Verne's "Phileas Fogg" could be beaten. The trip caused great excitement, and THE
WORLD received nearly a million guesses as to when the intrepid voyager would reach home.
When Stanley emerged from the African wilderness, the first man to meet him was a
WORLD correspondent, and the first news of the explorer's return to the confines of civiliza-
tion was sent by him. THE WORLD'S mission to Africa was twofold— to meet Stanley and
to make a thorough investigation of the African slave trade. Both of these objects were
successful, despite extraordinary difficulties which beset the effort.
WORLD reporters in New York City began the year 1892 by "showing up" one of the
most extraordinary expeditions in the annals of Spanish- American revolutions. This was
the fitting out and expected departure for Hayti of a man-of-v/ar called La Pays, intended
to aid the revolutionary leader there, whose description and movements had been given at
columns' length in a big metropolitan journal. The revolutionists who had chartered the
vessel had an office in New York, had all their arrangements complete, and had spent
many thousand dollars on the venture, when THE WORLD exposed the fact that the vessel
was a myth, the expected revolution a fraud, and the agents in this city the dupes of the
Haytian Minister to the United States.
Early on the morning of Sunday. February 7, 1892. a terribly fatal fire at the Hotel
Roj'al occurred, and THE WORLD of that day contained exclusively the names of guests,
secured through a characteristic piece of WORLD-reporter enterprise. While the building was
a mass of flames, and while burning timbers were falling to the ground floor, which was
ankle deep in water, a WORLD reporter went into the office and .secured the register of
the hotel, which was thus saved from destruction, and proved of nuioh value subsequently
in identifying the dtad and estim.itlng the number of lives lost.

of Aldermen, sent several of the bribed Aldermen to prison, and drove others to perma-
nent retirement.
When Gladstone was leading the battle for Irish home rule, THE WORI-D
raised a fund from 11,000 contributors for a magnificent memorial of solid silver to the
"Grand Old Man." In presenting the gift to Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Pulitzer designated it as
"an evidence that there is an irrepressible sympathy between the liberty-loving masses
which is more sincere than that of rulers."
The Weekly Payment bill, passed by the New York legislature, after a vigorous fight
in behalf of the measure by THE WORIjD, brought relief to millions of wage-earners, and
was in line with THE WORI^D'S work for Saturday half holidays, its support of the eight-
hour movement, and other beneficial and remedial efforts in aid of toiling humanity.
On March 24, lSi)0, THE WORLD struck a vital blow at the Louisiana Lottery octopus,
which had paralyzed a State and was swindling the nation to the extent of $10,000,000 a
year. THE WORLD showed that the corporation was illegal, and exposed its
nefarious doings and those of kindred operators. The opening guns of this campaign were
follow-ed by shots which hit the mark every time. When the bandits of the wheel attempted
to gain a foothold in Dakota THE WORLD defeated them there, and finally the United
States Government completed the work begun by THE WORLD, stopped the use of the
mails as a channel from the pockets of deluded victims to the coffers of the lottery robbers,
and ultimately made lotteries of any sort illegal.
In 1889, by a vigorous crusade against the oyster pirates in Chesapeake Bay, THE
WORLD rescued twenty-four men and boys who had been "shanghaied" from New York
and were virtually leading lives of slavery on oyster boats. The affair, as exposed by
THE WORLD, caused much excitement, and four of the pirates were tried, convicted and
punished through THE WORLD'S efforts.
The exposure of the cruelties practiced, and the dangers menacing the young girls and
children employed in the sweat-shops, where government and civilian clothing was made,
resulted first in the decision of the Army and Navy Department that no more uniforms
should be made in these vile places, and then, by the passage of the Costello "Anti-Sweat-
Shop" bill by the Legislature, Governor Roosevelt appointed Jacob A. Riis a special com-
missioner to investigate the sweat-shops. Citizens in mass-meeting indorsed the bill, the
Central Federated Union, the President of the Board of Health, and several clergymen
approved THE WORLD'S crusade, and the Governor signed the bill. Mr. Riis said of THE
V.^ORLD'S fight against the sweat-shops: "It is the best thing that has been done for the
women and children, to whom starvation wages are paid. Doing away with the sweat-
shop evil means better pay and shorter hours for thousands."
THE WORLD'S long war against "Brockwayism" resulted at last in the abolishing of
the paddle, the strap, and the chain as implements of punishment in the Elmira Reforma-
tory, though not until Z. R. Brockway, the Supeiintendent of this institution for the refor-
mation of young first offenders against the law, had admitted that thii-ty-three reformatory
Inmates had become insane in the first ten months of 1899, and had been sent to the State
Hospital for Insane Criminals. THE WORLD exposed the brutality of Brockway by
scores of sworn witnesses. Many judges flatly refused to sentence young criminals to
Elmira after that, and until Governor Roosevelt selected a new board of managers. The
new board put a stop to Brockway's methods, and no inmate will ever again be paddled
or chained to the floor.
The indictment of United States Senator Matthew S. Quay, of Pennsylvania, was for a
crime identical with the offence charged by THE WORLD years before— the unlawful use
of State funds for purposes of private speculation. THE WORLD dug out the facts and
the evidence establishing the embezzlement and published them broadside. It challenged
Senator Quay to sue it for libel, but in vain.
THE WORLD was the first to propose the revival of the naval rank of Admiral,
extinct for a generation, and to advocate that that distinguished rank be conferred upon
Commodore George Dewey, whose victory at Manila and subsequent governnient of the
conquered Philippine city practically settled the war with Spain and insured the inde-
pendence of Cuba.
In 1891 a notable achievement of a WORLD reporter was the clearing up of the mystery
of the bomb thrower In the office of Russell Sage. Police and public were In doubt whether
It was an act of concerted villainy on the part of leagued anarchists or the act of an indi-
vidual maniac. THE WORLD man took up the meagre clews, one of which was a button,
went to Massachusetts, and pointed out the murderer and suicide in Henry L. Norcross, a
Boston note broker.
32 The World.
One of the most successful and dramatic achievements of THE WORLD in ISOl was
the rescue from slavery of a band of Samoans and their return to their native land. Thes©
poor wanderers from the Pacific had performed heroic work in the rescue of American sea-
men during the hurricane which swept the islands in the Spring of 18S9, driving three
United States men-of-war on the rocks. Against the wishes of their king, they had joined
a theatrical troupe, and were held in a state of veritable bondage by a hard-hearted master
when discovered in Xew York by THE WORLD. In addition to being practically slaves,
they were slowly dying from the rigors of the Northern climate, and several had already
found untimely graves, while Manogi, their chieftain, was then sick with consumption in
Bellevue Hospital. THE WORLD instantly secured their release from the task-master
who was using them for his own ends, and the joy of the poor natives was pathetic to
witness when they were informed that they would be returned to Samoa. In a few daj-s
the preparations were complete, and the reporter who was to accompany them was appointed
a commissioner by the United States Government. Manogi died on the way and was buried
on the summit of the Rockies. THE WORLD reporter then continued the journey with,
the three remaining Samoans. His work was only finished when he had landed them upon
their native shores; and THE WORLD, through its representative, received the heartfelt
thanks of the King and the entire population of the island.
The rt'lease, in 1904, of Mrs. Maybrick. the American woman who had been for fifteen
years a prisoner in an English prison on the charge of poisoning her husband, but doubt of
whose guilt was in every mind, recalled the efforts of THE WORLD to secure her release,
and of the noble work of the late Mrs. Harriet Hubbard Ayer, for many years a member
of THE WORLD editorial family, in behalf of her unfortunate country-woman. Subse-
quently Mrs. Maj'brick's articles in THE WORLD comparing American prison systems
with those of England were widely read in the United States and abroad with keen interest.
THE WORLD denounced the "Emploj'er's Liability" bill in 1901 as a complete travesty
of the equitable law which it pretended to be, because, under it, no injured employee could
recover damages unless he sued within ten daj's, and no other injured person could recover
damages unless he filed a written notice that he intended to sue within sixty days after
the injury. This bill was killed.
The decision of the Court of Appeals declaring the anti-ticket scalpers' law, passed at
the behest of the principal railroad corporations, to be unconstitutional, was in exact sup-
port of THE WORLD'S contention in its fight against its passage.
The defeat of the attempt of the Astoria Light, Heat and Power Company to grab a
monopoly of the city's streets, under the guise of a bill before the Legislature purporting
to be intended only to give the Consolidated Gas Company the right to lay pipes under
the East River, connecting the company's new works on the Long Island side with its
feed pipes on the New York side, was one of the notable services of THE WORLD to the
public of New York City in 1SS9.
When Lord Mayor Tallon, of Dublin, and John Redmond, M. P., visited America and
appealed on behalf of the Irish people for assistance in paying off the long-overdue mort-
gage upon the home of the late leader and idol of the home rulers, Charles Stewart Parnell,
THE WORLD joined in the work, and in three days more than enough money was raised,
and the home of Ii"eland's greatest leader of modern days was saved.
When, in October, 1S9S, the managers of the Buffalo Pan-American Exposition
were confronted by Sculptor August Langenbahn's demand for the two most beautiful
women in the Western world for models for the Pan-American Exposition, they were in a
quandary. THE WORLD offered to help them out, and immediately arranged the SUNDAY
WORLD'S great Pan-American beauty contest, which was one of the most interesting
competitions of the age. It came to a close on June 1, and after six months of deliberation,
which involved the inspection and discussion of thousands of portraits, the best products
of the photographic art in all parts of North and South America, the committee of ten
judges announced their decision in the SUNDAY WORLD of December 2. The beauties
selected to typify North America and South America were Miss Maud Coleman Woods,
the famous Virginia blond beauty, and Miss Maxine Elliott, the incomparable brunette.
The defeat of the attempt of the Astoria Light, Heat and Power Company to grab a
monopoly of the city's streets, under the guise of a bill before the Legislature purporting
to be Intended only to give the Consolidated Gas Company the right to lay pipes under the
East River, connecting the company's new works on the Long Island side with its feed
pipes on the New York side, was one of the notable services of THE WORLD to the public
of New York City.
In 1SS9, when street railvray competition in New York was reduced to two companies.
The World, 33
through the absorption of all the others, and these two "pooled their issues" and agreed to
divide up the eighty miles of streets for which each had asked a franchise, THE WORLD
pointed out that this meant au absence of that competition which would make the public
sale of the franchises a real auction. Each company asked only for a franchise for such
streets as had been allotted to it in the combine, and offered to the city 3 per cent, of the
gross receipts for the first five years, and 5 per cent, for the twenty years remaining of
the term of the franchise. THE WORLD protested that these were the most valuable
franchises the city had to give, with a monopoly of the traffic from the city to Yonkers, and
that much higher compensation should be given. It showed that sixteen street surface
railways alone, capitalized at $78,600,000, with gross earnings in ISOG of $13,869,000. paid
Into the city treasury on franchise account only $192,000. The Board of Estimate saw the
light, and fixed the rates for the first sixteen-mile franchise at 4 per cent, for the first
five years, 6 per cent, for the second five years, 8 per cent, for the third five years, and 10
per cent, for the remaining ten years.
THE WORLD'S exposure of the armor-plate frauds, naming the warships upon which
rotten armor had been placed, resulted in an official investigation, which ended in the
Carnegie Company paying $144,000 fine.
At the suggestion of THE WORLD a reform ticket was named in Brooklyn in 1803.
John Y. McKane, the absolute boss and the Poobah of Gravesend, tried to save the spoils-
men's ring by falsely registering thousands of names. Schieren and Gaynor were elected by
30,000 majority, and McKane served seven years in Sing Sing.
The conviction of Charles A. Buddensieck, a rich builder, in 1885 for using mud instead
of cement in eight tenement-houses, by reason of which one of them collapsed, killing a
dozen workmen, was the first victory for tenement-house reform. THE WOR^LD accom-
plished it and followed it up by urging the passage of a Tenement-House Reform bill in
the Legislature. It is now a law.
Single-handed and alone THE WORLD exposed and stopped the scandalous deal between
the McKInley Administration and the Union Pacific Railroad reorganizers by which, on
October 22, 1897, Attorney-General McKenna announced the Government would sell the
Union Pacific and Kansas Pacific for $50,000,000 to satisfy their debt to the Government.
THE WORLD exposed and denounced the job, organized a new syndicate, and forced the
pool to pay $58,000,000 for the Union Pacific and $6,303,000 for the other road, a saving of
$14,000,000.
THE "WORLD is given the credit of having effected the establishment of the improved
Staten Island ferry service and for the first city-owned and city-operated ferry, which was
opened between the Battery and Staten Island in October, 1905.
After a long fight THE WORLD drove from the post he had held for twenty years as
Superintendent of the Westchester Temporary Home for Destitute Children, James H. Pierce,
who abused his little charges, and whose dismissal was recommended by the Westchester
County Grand Jury on THE WORLD'S evidence. The Board of Managers of the Home,
convinced by THE WORLD, discharged Pierce.
THE WORLD forced the establishing of the block system on the New York Central
and Hudson River Railroad from New York to Buffalo, after a terribly fatal accident at
Hastings through an "end-on" collision of two trains.
When the first Infected cholera ships arrived at this port In 1892, and the health
authorities, with mistaken judgment, caused a panic by witholding information, THE
WORLD did a great public service, and allayed fears by sending a tug daily to each ship,
bringing mail from passengers and carrying to them messages from anxious ones ashore.
Finally, when the authorities secured the hotel at Fire Island, and the wearied, hungry
and impatient prisoners at last landed, they found that one of THE WORLD reporters,
whose face had become familiar on the tug, "was in charge of their interests and chief
clerk of the Surf Hotel. THE WORLD reporter welcomed the quarantine guests, assigned
them to their rooms, and made them feel comfortable. The public service rendered by
THE WORLD during the cholera excitement was carefully conducted, no reporter set foot
on any of the Infected ships, no quarantine law was violated, and every message from the
detained vessels was thoroughly disinfected.
When Andrew Carnegie saw the picture of the Wyoming dinosaur In THE WORLD,
sitting on its haunches and looking into the eleventh story windows of a skyscraper, with
the descriptive account of the bones of this enormous animal of prehistoric times, he out
out the picture and s»nt It to the Director of the Pittsburgh Museum, with Instructions to
"Buy this for Pittsburgh." The purchase was made.

blow at the police "sj'stem" by which troublesome witnesses were done to death or
frightened out of town. The Coroner's Jury found that McAuliffe had been murdered.
Justice Mayer, after an exhaustive inquiry, decided that McAuliffe was uninjured when
arrested and received his injuries some time after he fell Into the clutches of the police.
Because of the indifference of the prosecuting officers no one was punished, but THE
WORLD'S exposure checked police intimidation.
The news that no less than $360,000 of the stealings of Capt. Oberlin M. Carter had
been recovered by the Government, having been traced to its place of hiding, recalled what
a distinguished army oificer said was "one of the very great services" for the maintenance
of the army's high standard of personal honor. When THE WORLD brushed the deep
accumulation of dust from the papers containing the court-martial's condemnation of
Capt. Oberlin M. Carter, and held them up until his political pull grew weak before the
public demand for justice, there was a mighty outcry from his friends and their friends
that he was a martyr and that he was being persecuted, that he was innocent. And even
after his uniform was stripped from him and he was put in the penitentiary, distinguished
counsel, pledging their private honor for a fee, continued to try to befog the public mind
by juggling the complicated features of the case.
THE WORLD sent a despatch boat with provisions, medical attendants and nurses
to the relief of Greek armies in the Cretan war.
When the interest of all the world centred upon the celebration of the jubilee of Queen
Victoria, THE WORLD had the pleasure of laying before the American people a brilliant
and complete account of the imperial pageant. In addition to the vivid pen pictures by
Its staff of correspondents, trained observers, and accurate writers, there were accounts
from these special correspondents: The famous Dean Farrar, of Canterbury, who described
the religious ceremonies; Gen. Nelson A. Miles, commander of the United States Army,
and official military representative of the nation at the jubilee, who wrote of the soldiers,
and Dr. Chauncey M. Depew, who treated of the social side of the celebration. The story
cabled to THE WORLD from London comprised 9,950 words.
When the scandals in the management of the War Department had demonstrated the
necessity for a change, THE WORLD demanded a surcease of Algerism. It kept up the
fight until more than half the newspapers in the United States joined in asking for the
dismissal of Secretary Alger from the Cabinet. THE WORLD published, in reduced fac-
simile, editorials from 132 daily newspapers of all parties, sustaining its position. It
showed that the United States Government had spent $99,660 in an investigation, in which
the investigators had plainly whitewashed the Secretary. Alger left the Cabinet July 19,
1889, and THE WORLD was ahead of all its contemporaries in publishing the news.
The first revelations in the remarkable story of Carlyle W. Harris were made late in
March, 1891, when pretty Helen Potts, to whom he had been secretly married, died myste-
riously in a New York fashionable boarding school. THE WORLD took the matter up at
once, shQwed up Hanis's record before he administei'ed the pills to his young wife, related
her mother's story in a long Interview in the paper of Alarch 21, and the reply of Harris
the following day. WORLD reporters followed the case In all Its crooked turnings, and
forged a chain of evidence about Harris which led to his arrest, indictment, conviction, and
electrocution. The Harris case is cited because of its publicity. The bringing of criminals
to justice by THE WORLD during the past twenty-five years, when police methods and
professional detective efforts had failed, have led to Its recognition as the most powerful
sleuth in the newspaper field. It can point to hundreds of convictions upon evidence
secured by Its tireless reporters, it rarely having been baffled. Many of these cases,
shrouded in mystery, attracted attention throughout the country.
Thus THE WORLD could continue to cite, by thousands, instances of its accomplish-
ments. Its exposures led the State Board of Health to purify the streams that feed
Croton Lake, the source of New York's water supply. Its battles against policy sharks
have resulted in Innumerable convictions. It showed the complicity of the Western Union
Telegraph Company with the poolrooms, and forced the directors to cut off all special
services on the race-track news. It was largely instrumental in abolishing the gallows in
New Jersey. It has saved millions of dollars to the City of New York and the State by
stopping land grabs of all sorts. It has succeeded In having opened public baths, play-
grounds and parks in all directions. It secured the anti-flat car wheel ordinance. It
caused the dismissal of five-cent extortionists among free bath attendants. It raised the

City of New York. THE WORLD exposed the honeycomb of corruption in the Immigra-
tion Bureau, and was the cause of an upheaval there and a complete reorganization of the
Bureau along the lines of honesty and decency. With the opening of the new Children's
Court by Justice Olmsted in September, 1902, the consummation was reached in THE
WORLD'S philanthropic and reformatory movement of seven years' duration. Comptroller
Grout, adopting THE WORLD'S suggestion of a popular loan, cffeied city bonds at $10
eacn, instead of offering them in the usual fashion— "all oi none"— to Wall Street. The
public snapped up the bonds, and 117 bidders took them at prices which produced $22,470
more for $3,000,000 worth than at any previous sale. THE WORLD proved, In 1902 the
innocence of George Frank, known as "Fienchy," the friendless Algerian, who was serving
a life sentence for the muider of "Old Shakespeare" in a Cherry Street dive in 1891, and
secured his pardon. When Dock Commissioner Hawkes announced that the bands on the
•recreation piers, secured by law passed by THE WORLD, would play only classical music,
THE WORLD started the crusade which resulted in the rescinding of the order. The
people of the tenements preferred "rag-time." THE WORLD'S long and peisistent advo-
cacy was rewarded by the passage of the law forbidding trap shooting of pigeons THE
WORLD has eradicated many moral plague spots at Coney Island. THE WORLD has
rescued hundreds of girls from bondage worse than death, and has forced the punishment
of their abductors. THE WORLD secured, and first published, the confession of Pat
Crowe, the man who kidnapped the Cudahy boy, after a juiy of twelve citizens of Omaha
had acquitted him, though he still had $21,000 left of the ransom he had received for the
restoration of the boy to his millionaire father. But why continue the list? Enough has
been written to prove clear THE WORLD'S title to being the people's cudgel and the
people's voice.
FIRST IN THE RUSSO-JAPANESE WAR.
The Russo-Japanese war was so recent an occurrence that THE WORLD'S masterly
work In portraying everything of interest In connection with the great struggle is still
fresh In the public mind. From the beginning of hostilities between the Russians and the
Japanese THE WORLD presented to its readers the earliest, most complete and reliable
news from the Manchurian battlefields. In addition to this, it printed valuable views and
opinions of eminent statesmen, soldiers and sailors of both contending nations, as well as
those of other prominent men throughout the world, concerning all the aspects of the con-
flict. Its war correspondents were brainy, fearless observers who had wop their spurs in
previous campaigns. The corps included E. F. Knight, whose daring on the battlefield cost
him an arm. Gov. William Dinwiddle left his post as the head of a Philippine province
to become a WORLD correspondent. He it was who cabled a 2,000-word interview with
Lieut.-Gen. Baron Kodama, "the brains of the Japanese army," just before the war
began, in which he said that Japan had an available fighting force of 400,000 men, and
predicted that the war would be a long one. From Dinwiddle, too, came the graphic story
of the retreat from Liaoyang, with a powerful character sketch of the grim fighter Kuro-
patkin. Others of THE WORLD'S corps were Henry James Wlgham, Thomas F. Millard,
who was a noted correspondent in China during the Boxer rebellion; Col. Edward Emerson,
McKenzIe and others. From the pens and cameras of THE WORLD'S artists in the field
came the picture stories, thrilling and Instructive, of the havoc of shot and shell, and of
scenes in camps, hospitals, trenches and on the march. Almost daily THE WORLD was
the first to present the news of big events. It was the first to tell of the fall of Port
Arthur and of the entrance of General NogI Into the citadel of the Gibraltar of the East.
When the happy ending was near, and Count Witte and Baron Komura were trying to
agree -at Portsmouth upon peace with mutual honor for their respective nations, THE WORLD,
twenty-four hours ahead of all contemporaries, announced that the Japanese terms
would be much less drastic than as first prbposed; that "the peace outlook was never
so good as now," and that "If Russia must pay an indemnity it may be under a guise that
will 'save her face.' " During the conflict, among those who contributed to THE
WORLD symposium of views which shed a flood of light on the situation were Jihei Hashi-
guchi, who wrote of "The Yellow Peril" as seen by Japanese eyes; Takahira, the Japanese
Minister at Washington, who contributed several articles; Baron Kiichl Kaneko appeared in
many articles showing the Japanese side, answering Count Cassini, delivering a personal
estimate of Oyama, the greater figure of the combat, and touching into life the story of
the Japs; Surgeon-General Suzuki wrote a complete expose of the methods of the Japanese

greatest naval conflict since Trafalgar. Gen. Nelson A. Miles presented an understandable
account of the war as it had progressed down to and including the battle of Mukden.
Andrew D, White, scholar, diplomat and member of The Hague peace tribunal, contributed
to the illustration of the effect of the war upon international politics, and Capt. H. A.
Saxe, of the Russian Na\^, told a graphic story of the terrors of life at Port Arthur,
where he was in the thick of it.
THE WORLD DURING THE CHINESE TROUBLE.
During the Boxer trouble in China, before and after the operation of the allied Powers,
THE WORLD kept its readers constantly informed, from the most reliable sources, of all
that transpired there. Its war cori.sspondent, Mr. Frederick Palmer, was the first to reach
the ground. Appreciating the sensitiveness of the situation from a standpoint of world
politics, it was alert in its watchfulness of the steps of the American Government, con-
stantly arousing the American conscience with its trusty searchlight of Publicity to the
dangers of any false step. It constantly insisted that the true American policy was not one
of vengeance, but of conciliation, with proper compensation for any damage done. "^When
the President announced on July 3, 1902, in a note to the Powers, his programme of
co-operation with the European armies "in aiding to prevent a spread of the disorders to
the other provinces and a recurrence," THE WORLD immediately began to point out the
inevitable consequences of this programme of joint pacification and joint bayonet rule.
Mr. McKinley, firm In the belief that the country was infected with his craze for imperial-
ism, and "glorj%" and foreign domination, steadily made his preparations, increased his
army for Chinese conquest, and sent munitions of war and supplies for a six months' cam-
paign. And on July 19 Mr. Root, the Secretary of War, said: "No matter what action
is taken by the Powers, the troops of the United States will remain in China."
THE WORLD vigorously denounced it, and was joined by all the other newspapers of
the land, irrespective of politics.
THE WORLD insisted that as our Minister and our other citizens shut up in Peking
were rescued, our army had accomplished its mission, the object for which alone it was sent,
the only excuse for its presence in China was gone, and there was left no reason why a
single American soldier should stay on Chinese soil. It should withdraw, leaving China
to restore her disorderd affairs. When peace was restored our Government could arrange
for indemnity and reparation. On September 22, 1902, President McKinley bowed to
public opinion, voiced by THE WORLD, and in his reply to Germany, Russia and China,
he announced a policy of peace, justice and civilization; peace through independent nego-
tiation.
RAMAPO STEAL AND ICE TRUST KILLED.
Among the most distinguished of the public services of THE WORLD must rank its
destruction of the Ice Trust and the killing of the Ramapo steal. It was THE WORLD
that first discovered and published Mayor Van Wyck's pecuniary connection with the ice
monopoly. On May 5, 1900, THE WORLD exclusively printed the news that Mayor Van
Wyck and John F. Carroll, theA the Tammany leader, owned millions of dollars, par value,
of the stock of the ice monopoly, which had doubled the price in New York City, and was
then perfecting an absolute monopoly of the ice trade in New York City by control of the
docks. THE WORLD Invoked the anti-Tweed law and forced Mayor Van Wyck to testify
before Justice Gaynor, eliciting the confession that he held $400,000 worth of the stock,
having paid only $50,000 In cash, the rest being covered by notes. Charges were preferred
before Governor Roosevelt, but his action was long delayedj. the Governor being away cam-
paigning for the Vice-Presidency in the West. He finally refused to remove the Mayor,
but said the Mayor's moral guilt was proved.
The Ramapo scandal involved a projected steal of $200,000,000 from the city in the
giving of a water contract for twenty years on the plea that the city's water resources
were exhausted and the Ramapo Water Company had gained possession of the only available
watershed in the State, the city being prohibited by law from going to any other State.
It was attempted by the Tajw^uany administration in 1S99 to sneak through the Board
of Public Improvements a contrast by which the city was to pay $70 a million gallons for
water from the Ramapo Company. THE WORLD showed that the same company had
been ready to sell at $53 a million gallons, and that this was a combination of Republican
and Democratic politicians to loot the city through its supposed helplessness. The contract
had been approved by Corporation Counsel John Whalen, and the Tammany President of
the Board of Public Improvements was eager to execute the contract. THE WORLD
obtained from the Supreme Court an injunction forbidding the city to make the contract.
The World, 37
The fight was carried on until the Legislature convened, and THE WORLD secured the
passage of a bill repealing the Ramapo charlei.
GRAB KJLLET) AND MILLIONS SAVED-
Under the pressure of a powerful lobby, the New York State Legislature, in its closing
moments in 1901, jammed through a bill giving to the New York and New Jersey Bridge
Company, financed by a syndicate whose personality was a deep, dark mystery, a fi-an-
chise in perpetuity, worth not less than $100,000,000, under the guise of a permit for a
terminal and bridge approach.
The bill granled the right to construct an overhead railway along the New York water-
front to connect with the New 'Xork Terminal Railway's tracks of the same company's
bridge on the Hudson River, and no limit to the length of the water-front overhead road
was named. It might go to the Battery south and north to the Yonkers line, and a careful
study of its provisions for compensation failed to discover anything under which the city
could force the company to pay for this invaluable privilege more than $00,000 a year,
compensation depending on computation of gross receipts by a system that would enable
the company to show that its bridge earned eveiything, the water-front terminal nothing.
THE WORLD denounced it as a steal that made the Ramapo job look insignificant.
A further analysis of the bill developed the astounding fact that it did not guarantee
the construction of the bridge over the Hudson at all. In other words, the holders of the
franchise could build and operate the overhead road along the water-front, on the recently
reclaimed and enormously valuable bulkheads of the city, and practically force shipping
Interests to transmit goods to and from their piers on their tracks, and besides, under the
provisions of the bill, the company would have the right to construct spurs and branches
across town through every street, and up and down through any avenue.
"Next to rapid transit," said THE WORLD, "nothing will do so much good for New
York as a bridge over the Hudson annexing New Y'ork to the continent, and there must be
a connecting road along the water-front to collect and distribute the enormous traffic that
would pass over it. But this is no reason why the city should not get a suitable payment
for this privilege, and there is every reason why such a franchise should not become a
perpetual monopoly."
All these points were laid before Governor Odell, who vetoed the measure in a ringing
message, in which he recited the very objections raised by THE WORLD.
FATHER OF GREAT INSURANCE REFORMS.
It cannot be disputed that the most herculean task ever attempted and performed with
amazing results by a newspaper has been the cleaning of the augean stables of life insur-
ance companies by THE WORLD. The labor is still going on, and THE WORLD'S cam-
paign against extravagance and corruption by men who have posed as the zealous guardians
of widows and orphans is too fresh in the mind of the public to make necessary more than
a brief rehearsal of THE WORLD'S war against insurance vices during the past two
years. It was THE WORLD that awakened the press of the country and millions of policy-
holders to join in its thundering denunciation of the crimes of high-paid insurance company
officials. It was THE WORLD that first produced evidences of these crimes, and it was
THE WORLD that first bearded in his den at Albany the "silent" lion, Francis Hendricks,
State Superintendent of Insurance, and later exclusively published the report of Mr. Hen-
drick's Investigation of the affairs of the Equitable Life Assurance Society before District-_^
Attorney Jerome could get a copy. It was THE WORLD'S insistence which led to Governor
Higgins requesting the appointment of a Legislative Investigating Committee, and, better
still, to a real investigation, calling attention to the fact that the testimony^ taken by the
Superintendent plainly showed that THE WORLD'S charge that there was a combination,
or "system," in which the Equitable. New York, Mutual and Prudential Insurance Com-
panies were engaged, and worked together, was proven.
Governor Higgins finally yielded to THE WORLD'S pressure "because of the great
public demand for it," and sent a special message to the extraordinary session of the Legis-
lature requesting the appointment of a committee to investigate insurance methods, and
report to the next session, with recommendations for changes in the laws so as to more
completely safeguard the interests of policy-holders, "although I am still of the mind that
there is nothing to be gained by it."
The people know whether "anything has been gained by it."
The story of the "system," as revealed in testimony before the Armstrong Committee,
reads like a recital of what THE WORLD had been telling for months before the com-
IJllttfe wag namec|. It Phowf that mor? tlian % mUlJon 4ollarg ha§ been spent by the "pig

Three" In corrupting Legislatures during the past ten years; that each of these companies
paid $50,000 to $75,000 to the Republican National Committee to help along the election of
McKlnley in 1900, and like sums In 1904 to the Roosevelt campaign fund, substantiating
the charge made by THE WORLD during that campaign and denied by the Republican
managers with much righteous indignation.
Hyde testified that the Mercantile Trust Company, one of the Equitable's subsidiary
companies, was "held up" by ex-Governor Odell and made to pay him his losses in the
Shipbuilding Trust fiasco. Hyde said that Odell's friend Harriman told him it would be
best to settle Odell's suit. He feared Odell would make reprisals. Senator Ambler had
introduced a bill cancelling the charter of the Mercantile Trust Company, one of the most
valuable of the assets of the Equitable. Odell could stop this bill. Odell got $75,000 in
settlement, and the Ambler bill was allowed to sleep to death "in committee."
Harriman and Odell denied Hyde's story, and a jury of twelve clergymen, to whom
the question was submitted, were unable to agree as to which of these witnesses was guilty
of perjury.
The investigation revealed that the Mutual and the New York Life were run as
strictly family affairs by the McCurdys and the McCalls; that Richard A. McCurdy received
a salary of $150,000 a year, a rise of $146,000 in twenty years, and that the Mutual had
paid an aggregate of $4,018,007 to McCurdy, his son, his son-in-law, and other members of
the McCurdy family— more than the salaries of all the Presidents of the United States
during 116 years combined.
The New York Life Insurance Company paid $509,127 for "legislation," which is only
another name for "bribery."
The Equitable Life Assurance Society loaned $250,000 to the Depew Improvement Com-
pany in 1895, and no interest had ever been paid until THE WORLD'S exposures. Then
the original loan was repaid in full, with interest.
The Equitable had a "Yellow Dog" fund in the Mercantile Trust Company in the form
of a loan. It amounted to $685,000 when THE WORLD began its crusade. It had been
$1,400,000 at one time. It was secured by the notes of James W. Alexander, Thomas D.
Jordan, comptroller of the Equitable, and William H. Mclntyre, fourth vice-president. It
was used to enable the Equitable to make secret payments and avoid scandal. Out of it
were paid political campaign assessments, to the settlement of blackmailing suits and the
like.' After the exposure this loan was mysteriously paid and the account settled, Hyde
paying $212,000 of it out of his own pocket.
"UTiile the salaries of the McCurdy family were mounting, the dividends to policy-
holders went down. In 1872 the dividend on a $5,000 policy was $149.96. In 1889 it was
$110; in 1893, $50; in 1903, $22, and In 1904 it had got down to $7. The average policy in
the Mutual is $2,346, on which the annual premium is $95. The premiums on more than
1.500 policies were eaten up in paj'ing President McCurdy's salary, and the salaries of all
the McCurdys ate up the premiums on 4,784 such policies, or all the dividends on 109,922
policies.
President John A. McCall, of the New York Life, admitted that his companj' paid
$235,000 to Judge Andrew Hamilton, the notorious insurance lobbyist at Albany, but
compromised himself by swearing he did not know what was done with the money.
The capital stock of the Equitable is only $100,000. of which Hyde held by inheritance
$52,200, par value. The law under which the Equitable operates limits Hyde's profit on
his holdings to $3,514 in annual dividends, yet he sold his stock to Thomas P. Ryan for
$2,500,000, after declining an offer of $7,000,000, because of its possibilities as a money-
maker through "juggling" by the "system."
Cashier Banta, of the New York Life, testified how the Chemical National Bank evaded
paying taxes by "borrowing" $700,000 worth of bonds from the company, leaving its check
for that amount, and after the tax-gatherer had passed by brought the bonds back and
exchanged them for the check.
The Mutual maintained a house in Albany called the "House of Mirth," where mem-
bers of the Legislature were welcome free guests, and ex-Senator Charles P. McClelland,
who was promoted to a membership in the Board of Appraisers by President Roosevelt,
was one who lived there.
For five years Senator Depew had been paid an attorney fee of $20,000 a year, and
David B. Hill $5,000 a year; Elihu Root, Premier in the Roosevelt Cabinet, had received
$25,000 in the first half of 1905; the Mercantile Safe-Deposit Company was earning 29 per
cent, dividends, "all at the expense of the parent company." the Equitable, and Superin-
teiKjent Hendricks said all TH^ WORT-^P'S charges regardins^ the Hyde-Alexancler iyndj*

cates, and their looting of the funds in loans, sales of securities at inflated prices, and the
like, were true, and that Hyde and Alexander ought to refund.
On the reading of the evidence, the Merchants* Association held an indignation meet-
ing, and passed resolutions declaring these givers of the money of policy-holders to campaign
funds "plain thieves," and demanding that they be removed and that they be compelled to
make restitution.
The year 1906 crowned with glorious triumph THE WORLD'S struggle against insur-
ance corruption when the New York State Legislature passed the Armstrong 'bills, reor-
ganizing and remodelling the whole systena of life insurance in the State of New York.
These laws embody the exact insurance reforms recommended by THE WORLD in the best
interests of the policy-holders. They wipe out the whole tainted system, the foundations of
which were laid by Henry B. Hyde more than forty years ago, and were wrought to per-
fection by adroit men during the years that followed, until its alliances reached into the
Capitol of every State in the Union, into the United States Senate, and into the organiza-
tions of both political parties. It sought to buy Ambassadorships; it corrupted Legislatures,
and paid for it all with the savings of policy-holders all over the earth, turning the pro-
ceeds of their thrift into the channels of political and financial corruption.
The Convention composed of Insurance Commissioners, Governors and other public
officials of a number of States at Chicago in March, 190G, adopted almost word for
word. THE WORLD'S life insurance reform platform. The Arena said: "THE
XEW YORK WORLD, seizing on the opportunity for the unmasking of the festering
moral corruption, began a series of editorial leaders devoted to the expose of the true
Inwardness of the company that have seldom, if ever, been equalled for boldness and
lucidity of persistence."
A review of some of the occurrences following THE WORLD'S merciless blows reads
like a page of tragedy.
John A. Me^Call, late president of the Xew York Life Insurance Company, after making
a brave defenct; pf.his management and justifying it with so much earnestness that the
conviction was fprced upon most people that he had really erred moi-e in the head than the
heart, first gave up all that he had in partial restitution, and then died of a broken heart,
leaving his family practically penniless; James W. Alexander, former president of the
Equitable Life ^vssurance Society, whose dislike and jealousy of James Hazen Hyde gave
THE WORLD the instrument it had been searching for for many months with which to
break through the case-hardened shell of the egg of insurance corruption and expose the
rottenness inside, is mentally and physically broken down; Richard A. McCurdy, forraer
president of the Mutual Life Insurance Company, is a physical wreck, vainly searching
in Europe for health and surcease of worriment; James Hazen Hyde, former vice-president
of the Equitable, is an exile; Lewis A. Thebaud, son-in-law of McCurdy, is an exile, and
Robert A. McCurdy, son of Richard, has been forced out of the company; Vice-President
W. H. Mclntyre, of the Hyde regime, has been forced out and is seeking his fortune in Texas;
Vice-Presidents Robert A. Grannis and Walter R. Gillette, since indicted for perjury, and
the latter convicted, were forced to resign; "Judge" Andrew Hamilton, who "handled"
over $1,000,000 for the "Big Four" as legislative agent and was never asked for an account-
ing, is no longer in power; Andrew Fields, who was a legislative agent and host at the
"House of Mirth" at Albany, has been dropped, the house closed, and he is broken in health;
Thomas D. Jordan, former comptroller of the Equitable, and with Hyde and Mclntyre a
co-trustee of the $685,000 "yellow dog" fund, out of which secret payments •were always
made— as of political campaign contributions, "promotion" of legislative action and the like
—and in the restoration of which James Hazen Hyde paid $212,000 out of his own- pocket
and the rest came from anonymous sources, is removed from affice; Frederick A. Burnham,
president of the Mutual Reserve Life Insurance ^Company, was indicted by the Grand Jury
five times for larceny and forgery; Vice-President George D, Eldridge v/as also indicted
on five counts of larceny and forgery, and George Burnham, Jr., vice-president of the
Mutual Reserve, was tried on a charge of grand larceny.
Suits have been commenced by the looted companies against the looters or "high
financiers" for the restoration of an aggregate of more than $10,000,000, and there are
more to follow.
All of this is the result of the persistence of THE WORLD having for its aim the
service of the people.
THE DESTRUCTION OF ST. PIERRE.
On May 10, 1902. THE WORLD gave to the public the first account of the destruction
e£ St. Pierre, oa the island of Martinique, by the eruption of 'Mount Pelee, the suprem*
40 The World
catastrophe of the age, rivalling in sudden, swift and wholesale annihilation of man and
his works the greatest tragedies in history, the burial of Pompeii, the swallowing up of
Lisbon by an earthquake, and the cremation of Catania. In the twinkling of an eye 30,000
people passed from life to death. Their bodies were found afterward, just as they had
fallen, unmarked. They had been asphyxiated by the deadly gases of the lava-dust which
had fallen like a rain storm upon the land.
Simultaneously with the publication of the news THE WORLD appealed to the public
for funds and supplies for the relief of the survivors of the calamity, and at the same
time cabled* to Governor Hunt, of Porto Rico, to charter a ship and send relief to Mar-
tinique in its name, and THE WORLD steamer Longfellow, on May 17, arrived at the
island with the first relief supplies. It carried also fifty tons of supplies from the Gov-
ernment.
A WORLD correspondent at Fort de France was the first to reach the scene of the
catastrophe. Two days later he gave the first complete survey of the situation, and told
the saddening news that the survivors of the calamity were so very few that the supplie.s
already received were ample for all probable needs. From the first THE WORLD easily
led in the completeness and comprehensiveness of its accounts, illustrated by photographs.
At the same time the long-smouldering volcano La Soufriere in St. Vincent erupted,
laying waste two-thirds of the island, and killing more than 2,500 people. In a tug,
through an electric storm on raging seas, THE WORLD correspondent reached St. Vincent
from Fort de France, and after traversing the devastated British island sent from St.
Lucia the first complete story of the St. Vincent tragedy.
THE WORLD AS A MEDIUM OF COMMUNICATION.
One of the proudest distinctions of THE WORLD Is its long record of occasions when
it has been requested to lend its columns to distinguished leaders of thought and action
as the best possible medium of reaching the greatest number of people in the United
States and in all directions abroad. The pre-eminent standing of THE WORLD as an
international forum has so long been undisputed that it is recognized" "by dignitaries
everywhere as a means of communication. Elsewhere is told how marked' was the service
by THE WORLD at the time of the Venezuelan boundary dispute, and preceding and
during the South African war, as are other instances. Among the many additional
examples are these:
Ambassador White addressed the American people through THE WORLD in an impres-
sive summing up of the work of the International Peace Conference at The Hague, saying:
"It marks the first stage of the abolition of the scourge of war."
The last great public utterance of Congressman Nelson Dingley, Chairman of the Ways
and Means Committee of the House of Representatives, was in the form of an address to
the people, in which he presented an able and remarkable exposition of the finances of
"Empire," and he chose THE WORLD as the medium through which to reach the people.

Governor Jennings, of Florida, desiring to thank the people of New Tork for their
prompt and generous assistance to the fire sufferers of Jacksonville, did it through the
recognized medium. "The people of Florida," said her chief magistrate in a telegram to

gratitude."

outlined his policy in THE WORLD for the information of the American people.
Like an appeal was the message sent to the American people through THE WORLD
by the venerable Danish Senator Thygeson, who, at nienty-seven years of age, was making
his last fight against parting with the Danish Indies to the United States: "Tell the
people of An,j6rtca the United States is grand and big enough without those small islands,
but Denmark is small, and cannot afford to get any smaller."
The Prince of Wales and the Duke of York, Gladstone, Lord Rosebery, Cardinals Logue
and Vaughan, Archbishops. Bishops, and other dignitaries of church and state in Great Brit-
ain, who responded to THE WORLD'S request for a Christmas sentiment at the time of the
Venezuela war excitement, and thus helped to allay that excitement, set the example and
made a precedent for other public personages in Europe to speak to the great people
through the press, according to the American method. They set the fashion of publicity.

German elections and the attitude toward the subject of the Army bill of the leaders on
both sides. The position of Kaiser Wilhelm II. was first known in* an authoritative
statement of his favorite minister, Dr. Miquel, made through THE WORLD. The follov.--
ing day, June IS, Wilhelm Liebknecht, the leader of the German Socialists, replied in a
remarkable statement. He voiced the Socialist hatred of Bismarck, said anarchy was
nonsense, predicted that the Kaiser's Army bill would be defeated, and that a series of
great political battles was inevitable.
It was in 1S93, too, when the personality and policy of Mgr. Satolli the Apostolic
Delegate and head of the Catholic Church in this country, were shrouded in mystery, that
THE WORLD interviewed him and sketched from life his various attitudes. It broke
through his European conservatism, and made him quick to- appreciate THE WORLD and
its position as a public institution. As head of the Catholic Church in America he spoke
through THE WORLD to the millions of the faithful regarding his mission and work. At
the same time was depicted Satolli, the man. in a series of instantaneous sketches from life.

honor in the gift of the nation; what citizen would refuse?"
M. Emile Loubet. President of the French Republic, addressed a "greeting to the
American people," through THE WORLD of April 15, 1900, on the opening of the Universal

enthusiasm for "the great Republic across the ocean, whose glorious past and wonderful
present contain so much that challenges France's special regard." Next day M. Cambon,
Frencli Ambassador to Washington, epitomized the reason for the natural affection of the

When the scattered and demoralized hosts of Democracy, apparently arrived at the
turning point, cast about for a leader and guidance, and Grover Cleveland, that sturdy
leader to victory in the past, recognizing that the time had come for him to break the
silence of six years, chose THE WORLD as the medium through which to address his
penitent party on "The Future of Democracy." He knew that through it he could most
surely reach the masses, and delivered the summons to Democrats to return again to
Democratic principles, which carried courage to every Democrat in the country.
Mr. Addicks, the man who, at an expense of $20,000 a year, kept Delaware without
representation in the L'nited States Senate because of his ambition to be a Senator, and

behavior in this country. I am much pleased at the way they are building themselves up.
Tell them that, with the help of God. if there happen to be any more disturbances and
misunderstandings in Russia, they v.-ill soon pass away. Tell them this is my greeting on
the eve of my departure to the Russian Jews of this country."
A little later Lamsdorf, the Czar's Chancellor, cabled to THE WORLD his message
to the American people, saying that their President had earned a clear title to the $40,000
peace prize bequeathed by the late Alfred Nobel, a Russian, to be given to him who had
rendered the most eminent services to humanity and for the promotion of peace between
Russia and Japan having been largely the result of the President's efforts.
Premier Fejervary presented the defence of the interim ministry in Hungarj' and advo-
cated universal suffrage for the Hungarians in a signed statement in THE WORLD. A
Prime Minister's signed statement about a grave crisis involving possible revolution in a
gi-eat European power was certainly a remarkable newspaper feature. But this was fol-
lowed by the statement of the appeals of Francis Kossuth, leader of the Independence
party, and Count Apponyi, and thus THE WORLD became the forum for a full discussion
of the political situation and crisis in Hungary.
Emile Combes, late Premier of France, wishing to speak his gratitude to, and admira-

that he was preparing to introduce a national scheme for postal saving banks, selected
THE WORLD, which first proposed, and has strongly advocated, the project as the medium
through which to address the people.
THE WORLD AND GOVERNOR HUGHES.
THE WORLD was the first paper to m-ge the Republicans of New York State to
nominate Charles Evans Hughes for Governor, which it did on March 19, 1906, when it
said in a leading editorial:
"The insurance question makes Charles E. Hughes the logical candidate of his party
for Governor, for he is the very personification of the Issue. Moreover, his monumental
work as counsel for the Armstrong Committee has earned for him any office within the gift
of the people of New York."
Daily, until the Republican convention at Saratoga heeded its advice, THE WORLD
pleaded with the delegates to lift their party, by the nomination of Hughes, above the
levels to which It had been dragged by unscrupulous machine politicians. It threw the
limelight of publicity on the coquetting of "Boss" Murphy and William R. Hearst, and
warned the Republicans that Hearst, as an independent nominee, would not be a weak can-
didate, as the Republican leaders believed. It showed, however, that if Hearst carried
Tammany on his back Hughes could beat him. The Murphy-Hearst deal went through at
the Buffalo convention, which nominated Hearst. Governor Higgins, frightened, declined
a renfimlnation at Saratoga, and Hughes consented to head a weak ticket — and alone the
day after election he towered above its wreck. So ardently did THE WORLD support
Hughes during the campaign that Harper's Weekly said: "With the exception of Mr.
Hughes himself, the most able and zealous supporter of the Republican ticket in the State
of New York is THE NEW YORK WORLD." To which THE WORLD replied: "Not 'the
Republican ticket in the State;' by no means! THE AVORLD asks independent voters to
make Hu^jhes Governor for his record, for his character, for his ability, for his manly
pledges of energetic action. It asks no man to vote for such Republicans as Merton Lewis."
A careful canvass of the voters of the city was made by THE WORLD, and a pains-
taking survey of the situation in the rural counties, and upon the results obtained, THE
WORLD boldly predicted three days before the election that Hughes would be elected. On
November 4 it said: "Many thousands of Democrats will vote for Hughes. The up-
State Democratic organization has gone out of business. The Brooklyn organization has
repudiated Hearst. Tammany is split. Croker has denounced Murpfiy's deal with Hearst
as un-Democratic, and unless many thousands of Republicans vote for Murphy's candidate,
Hearst has not a ghost of a chance of election."
"TO HARLEM IN FIFTEEN MINUTES!"
Greatest of its accomplishments in its many efforts for a betterment of passenger
transit conditions in Greater New York is THE WORLD'S securing of fast trains to Harlem.
On April 8, 1S93, it said in an editorial:
"To Harlem in Fifteen Minutes! That and nothing less is rapid transit. That is what
the city needs, and the elevated road can never give. That is what the city will get unless
impatience surrenders the prospect to the greed of the elevated monopoly. To Harlem in
Fifteen Minutes!"
On October 27, 1904, after eleven and a half years' persistent fight by THE WORLD,
the great $40,000,000 subway and viaduct rapid transit railroad from end to end of the "old"
City of New York, now the Boroughs of Manhattan and the Bronx, was opened with appro-
priate ceremonies at the City Hall, and Mayor McClellan's hand on the electrical controller
in the motorman's box of the first train over the line. Thirty thousand people thronged
City Hall Park, making a gala day of it, and shouting their approval of the new road,
and 100,000 others massed themselves about the stations along the line. Their rallying cry
was "To Harlem in Fifteen Minutes," and nearly all the accounts of the occasion began
with these words. Fourteen minutes is schedule time for express train runs from City
Hall Station to Ninety-sixth Street, Harlem.
At the opening day celebration credit was freely given to THE WORLD. John H.
Starin, the Nestor of rapid transit, who was a member of the original Rapid Transit Com-
mission, appointed by Mayor Grant in 1890, and who is still a member, said:
"This should be a day of special satisfaction to THE WORLD. It was THE WORLD
44 ' The World.
that started agitation for rapid transit fully fifteen years ago. It has never flagged In Its
zeal for the project. Early and late, It has kept up its cry for rapid transit. It secured
and published a vast amount of information concerning underground roads throughout the
world and made the idea familiar to its readers.
"THE WORLD has advocated and helped to secure the passage of every law v/hich has
been secured to advance the project. Its enterprise in sending a trainload of people to
Albany on one occasion prevented the passage of a bill that would have been harmful.
"THE WORLD advocated the lending of the city's credit to the enterprise when the
idea of municipal ownership was a novelty, and it was THE WORLD, after consolidation,
helped to secure constitutional amendments that made possible the selling of the neces-
sary bonds to proceed with the construction of the road. For these reasons I say THE
WORLD has special reason for congratulating itself and for being congratulated.
"Back in those days," continued General Starin, "THE WORLD was our one support
among the newspapers. It was always aggressively optimistic, while certain others were
caricaturing us as guests of Barbarossa's table, fast asleep, and our beards taking root In
the table-top, and the big hole still not dug. The work of THE WORLD for rapid transit
has been magnificent, and its importance can hardly be overestimated. In fact, I have
sometimes wondered whether we could have been successful without it."
President Alexander E. Orr, of the Rapid Transit Commission, said:
"THE WORLD'S slogan, 'To Harlem in Fifteen Minutes,' was adopted as a pledge. It
Is now fulfilled. THE WORLD has reason to feel proud of the course it has pursued in this
matter."
William Barclay Parsons, Chief Engineer of the Rapid Transit Commission: "It I§ an
admitted fact that THE WORLD has stood by the Commission and fought for the subway
from the start. It has been the one unfailing friend of rapid transit among the newspapers
of New York. THE WORLD'S cry: 'To Harlem in Fifteen Minutes,' is now possible with
a completed subway."
No public service in the long list of those performed by THE WORLD affords it mora
satisfaction or has brought to it more commendation than its fifteen-year fight, most of the
time single handed, for real rapid transit for the Metropolis, brought to a complete success-
ful issue on October 27, 1904.
THE WORLD'S RECOGNITION OF WOMEN.
In the work of uplifting woman THE WORLD has long been without a peer among
newspapers. In its championship of woman's advance toward that higher life which Is the
ideal of the sociologist it has been splendidly aided by the pens of many eminent and pro-
gressive women, as well as by thoughtful contributions from thousands of women in the
more retired walks of* life. THE WORLD'S views of woman's proper place are exalted
ones; and especially do THE EVENING WORLD and THE SUNDAY WORLD teem with
the news, gossip, helpful hints and other subjects dear to the feminine heart. THE
WORLD believes in the power of the hand that rocks the cradle, and it applauds and
assists every well-directed effort to broaden woman's sphere of influence, recognizing in
every self-respecting, useful woman a queen of the earth, whether she actually sits upon
a throne or rules in her domestic palace, the home.
In the long list of women whose articles or other expressions in THE WORLD have
attracted widespread attention are found the names of Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan
B. Anthony, Queen Victoria, Adelina Patti, Sarah Bernhardt, Rejane Emma Nevada,
"Jennie June" (Mrs. J. C. Croley), Mrs, Russell Sage, Mrs. Harriet Hubbard Ayer, Maude
Adams, Marie Corelli, Julia Marlowe, Mrs. John Gilbert, Lady Drummond, Mrs. Burton
Harrison, Beatrice Harraden, Mrs. John King Van Rensselaer, Mrs. Hetty Green, Elizabeth
Stuart Phelps, Countess de St. Maurice. Mrs. Leonard Wood, Mrs, Frederick Funston, Miss
Clara Morris. Mrs. Jefferson Davis, Mrs. John A. Logan, Mrs. Eliza Rogers Sigsbee, Julia
Ward Howe, Helen H. Gardener, Mme. Calve, Miss Jane Priscilla Sousa, Miss Helen Gould,

helmina of Holland, Flora Annie Steel, Fanny J. Ci'osby, Maude Gonne McBride, Mrs.

THE WORLD AND FREE EDUCATION.
Since "THE WORI^D'S Free Lecture Bill" was passed twenty years ago, emphasizing
The World 45
tiie logic of THii; WORLD'S contention that the public school rooms of New York City
belonged to all the people, a conservative estimate shows that 25,000,000 people have heard
lectm-es by eminent men in the People's University course. What brighter jewel could
shine in THE WORLD'S diadem of accomplishments? Five thousands lectures each season
to an average now of a million and a half auditors from October to May in nearly 150 audi-
toriums of the metropolis! Surely that is touching the brow of the masses with the enno-
bling wand of education!
The subjects of the lectures are such as will promote the purpose of the system, which
Is summarized by Dr. Kenry M. Leipziger, the conductor of the courses from the beginning:
"To afford to as many as possible the fruits of a liberal education; to make education a
life purpose, and to apply the best methods of study to the problems of daily life, so as to
create in our citizens a sound public opinion."
Among the general subjects discussed in the lectures are phj'siology, hygiene, natural
science, astronomy, biology, anthropology, physics, electricity, chemistry, metallurgy, domes-
tic sciences, household art, modern industries, history, biography, sociology, geography,
commercial, physical, political and descriptive literature, music, art, American citizenship.
The lectures are delivered in English, Yiddish, and Italian, and many of them are
illustrated by lantern slides, each lecture centre being equipped with a stereopticon.
Among those who have delivered lectures in the People's University courses are Presi-
dent Roosevelt, ex-Mayor Low, ex-Postmaster-General Thomas L. James, Dr. Rossiter
Johnson, and Presidents Wilson, of Princeton; Harper, of Chicago University; Taylor, of
Vassar; Hall, of Clark, and McAllister, of Drexel Institute; Felix Adler, Charles Sprague
Smith, Garrett P. Serviss, and Dr. Draper, State Superintendent of Instruction, and many
others of equally distinguished reputation.
Mention may also be made, with propriety, of the free scholarships founded by
Mr. Joseph Pulitzer for boys who would otherwise be unable to enjoy the benefits of a
college education, the far-reaching effects of which splendid benefaction cannot even be
conjured. It can only be abstrusely measured by the possibilities of the Influence of edu-
cated men in the wonderful years of development in the future.
THE SUNDAY WORLD.
While the news sections of THE SUNDAY WORLD preserve the continuity of the
record of happening*? everywhere, and form by themselves a complete newspaper, giving
all the news of the civilized world, gathered by the Associated Press and an army of its
own special correspondence, its additional sections make it the greatest Sunday journal ever
conceived. The editorial section is a remarkable symposium of news and comment. The
metropolitan section, fully illustrated, pictures all the lights and shadows of life in
America's greatest city. The funny section, four pages of comics in colors, intended espe-
cially for the little folk, pleases thousands of children of a larger growth as well. The
magazine, a costly twelve-page in color and half-tone, in which the work of many of the
best known artists and writers appear, is a fascinating Instructor for all the family. For
fresh, original material for the magazine section THE SUNDAY WORLD invades the realms
of invention, art, science, travel, romance, literature, and discovery. The society pages,
pages for women, weekly reviews of finance and the markets, cable pages of news and
discussion from the capitals of the old world, resort pages, and other special departments
add to the sum total of newspaper completeness every Sunday.
THE EVENING WORLD AND ITS INFLUENCE.
As THE WORLD towers above Its competitors in the morning newspaper field, so THE
EVENING WORLD Is the giant of the Evening city dailies. Its growth and power have
been remarkable, due to its observance of tlje same principles upon which THE WORLD
has been reared. It was first issued on October 10, 1887, and quickly found favor with the
public. "V^Tien It was barely out of its cradle its power was recognized by all who believed
in publicity or who feared it. Its staff Is distinct, in all departments, from that of the
morning WORLD, and while, like its big father. It regards newsgathering as paramount

funny pictures, for the mother and daughter who study the fashions or read helpful words
by brainy women, and for the father and sons who are Intarested in its news stories,
terse editorials, sporting pages, and other features. Like the morning WORLD, it daily
"beats" its -contemporaries, sparing neither effort nor expense to be first with the news.

THE WORLD IN 1907.
The Public Service Commission created by the Legislature under the lead of Governor
Hughes, sustained by public opinion, is the direct outgrowth of the relentless warfai-e
waged by THE WORLD against the law-defying corporations holding invaluable franchises
fiom the people to serve them the great utilities of city life, like light and transportation.
In March, 1003, THE WORLD published the exposure of corruption in the surface
railway manipulation, and one of the completed works of the Commission, led by its chief
Inquisitor, William M. Ivins, is the entire substantiation of the charges made by THE
WORLD nearly five years ago.
On the heels of THE WORLD'S exposure the books of the Metropolitan were destroyed
and much of the evidence of the high financiering by which the floating debt of that ancient
"gold njine," the Third Avenue Railroad, was jumped in six years from $2,000,000 to
?24,000,000, and the construction account padded with $15,000,000 partly to balance it, by
which the Fulton Street line was exploited, the Twenty-eighth Street and the Twenty-
ninth Street line bought for $25,000 and "capitalized" for $3,000,000, loaded with a bogus
construction expense account, so as to make $5,000,000 in profits for the insiders, and
bonds issued to "electrolize" East Side lines were sold and the price pocketed, while weary
horses still drag the cars along the rails, was destroyed with them.
The confession of Quigg revealed a state of things comparable to the revelations in
insurance corruption; that he, Quigg, received $217,000 in four years from the company
for lobbying at Albany for the Metropolitan, or rather for those who ruled the company
to its ruin.
The testimony of Anthony N. Brady, showed how he had sold the Cortlandt Street
line, which never existed except "on paper," to the Metropolitan for nearly $1,000,000 and
divided the proceeds among the "insiders," Whitney, Ryan, Dolan, Widener, and Elklns.
As a result of this official corroboration of THE WORLD'S charges, the Metropolitan
Street Railway went into the hands of a receiver, a confessed insolvent, and the "holding
company," having nothing else to hold but watered securities, also went into the hands
of a receiver.
Under -he Public Utilities bill there will be no more "holdihg companies;" no more
watering of stocks in public utility corporations; for the consent of the Public Utilities
Commission must first be obtained before nev/ stock may be issued, and then it must
be shown that the added capital is needed for, and to be used for, material improvements
to the road, equipment or service, and not to create a false and fabulous profit for the
manipulators, and the consent of the Commission must be first obtained before any railroad
can assign, transfer, or lease Its property or franchise.
TEN UNANSWERED QUESTIONS.
October 1, 1904, THE WORLD asked these ten questions:
"1. How much has the Beef Trust contributed to Mr. Cortelyou?
"2. How much has the Paper Trust contributed?
"3. How much has the Coal Trust contributed?
"4. How much has the Sugar Trust contributed?
"5. How much has the Oil Trust contributed?
"6. How much has the Tobacco Trust contributed?
"7. How much has the Steel Trust contributed?
"8. How much has the Insurance Trust contributed?
"9. How much have the National Banks contributed?
"10. How much have the six great railroads contributed to Mr. Cortelyou?"
Mr. Roosevelt's reply to these questions addressed to him was the appointment of Mr.
Cortelyou to the post of Secretary of the Treasury, but, as a result of THE WORLD'S
insistent demand in the Spring and Summer of 1905 for a legislative investigation of the
life insurance companies, it was disclosed under oath that four of them had contributed
$158,500 to the Roosevelt campaign fund in 1904. These contributions were:
New York Life Insurance Company.. $48,500 1 Mutual Life Insurance Company $50,000
Equitable Life Assurance Society... 50,000 l Prudential Life Insurance Company.. 10,000
On April 2, 1907, by its exclusive publication of the famous letter written by E. H.
Harriman to his friend, Sidney Webster, a further contribution to the Roosevelt campaign
fund of 1904 of $200,000 was also disclosed by THE WORLD. \
This fund of $260,000 was made up after a conference between Odell, Cortelyou, and
Treasurer Coniellus N. ^liss, of tbe EejpubUcan National Committee, at which It wa«4

decided to call upon E. H. Harriman to "save the day." The contributions and their
respective contributors were as follows:
Edward H. Harriman $50,000
H. McK. Twombly (representing the Vanderbilt Interests) 25,000
Chauncey M. Depew (personal) 25.000
James Hazen Hyde 25.000
The Equitable Life Assurance Society 10,000
J. Pierpont Morgan 10,000
George W. Perkins (New York Life Insurance Company) 10,000
H. H. Rogers and John D. Archbold (Standard Oil Company) 30.000
Banking interests 10^000
Cornelius N. Bliss (personal* 10,000
Seven friends of Senator Depew ($5,000 each) 35.000
Sent to Mr. Harriman in smaller donations 20.000
Total $260,000
Later on THE WORLD was able to show that Ryan, Dolan, Elkins, Whitney, Wid-
ener and the other Metropolitan Railway Company managers had contributed equally to a
$600,000 fund "to remove obstacles and care for political obligations," and that they
recouped the amounts given to the Republican campaign fund by the sale of the Cort-
landt Street '^paper road" to the Metropolitan Securities Company for $965,607.19 by
Anthony N. Brady. Brady returned to each of the contributors $111,652.78.
TRAPPING A BOODLE ALDERMAN.
THE WORLD, with the assistance of the detectives employed in the District- Attor-
ney's office, caught W. S. Clifford, a Municipal League Alderman from the Borough of
Queens, red handed in the sale of the votes of eleven Aldermen for the election of a
Recorder to fill the vacancy caused by the promotion of Recorder Goff to the Supreme
Court bench. Alderman Clifford came to an appointed place and received $6,000 in marked
bills.
VICTORY FOR SUBWAY BRIDGE LOOP.
The adoption by the old Board of Rapid Transit Commissioners and the confirmation
by the Board of Estimate of THE WORLD'S plan for a four-track subway loop to connect
the Brooklyn Bridge and the Williamsburg Bridge on the Manhattan side was a victory
not only over the traction combine of the Interborough and Brooklyn Rapid Transit, but
over the Legislature, which passed a bill providing for an elevated loop.
The loop is now in course of construction by the city. Both the Brooklyn and Man-
hattan Companies, surface and underground, will be compelled to operate their trains
and cars through it under a car mileage arrangement which will pay the cost of main-
tenance and provide a sinking fund to extinguish the debt incurred for construction.
EXPOSURE OF WARD'S ISLAND CRUELTIES.
One of the latest and one of the most important of the public services of THE WORLD
during 1907 was the exposure of brutalities practised upon helpless patients in the Man-
hattan State Hospital for the pauper insane on Ward's Island. Reports had reached
THE WORLD during the three months preceding October of -the ill treatment of insane
patients by the attendants in the institution. An agent was immediately employed to
ascertain the truth. This agent was experienced in the treatment of the insane at Bellevue
Hospital and the Bloomingdale Asylum, a physician equipped with the special learning
necessary foyhls calling— Dr. John C. McCarthy.
Dr. McCarthy secured employment as*an attendant in the State Asylum and served
for a whole month. He made a careful diarj% describing what he witnessed during that
month in one ward, and his report shows an amazing prevalence of brutality among
the attendants.
THE WORLD'S PUBLIC SCHOOL FIELD DAYS.
Believing in the doctrine that a healthy mind is best developed in a healthy body,
THE WORLD instituted in 1906 'a grand competition in athletics among the grammar
school boys. Two thousand medals of silver and bronze were offered for competition,
twenty to each of the first 100 grammar schools in Greater New York that should hold
field days. The medals were given through the Public School Athletic Association, of
^which General George W. Wingate, a member of the Board of Education, is President, and
Luther Halsey Gulick, Director of Physical Training in the Public Schools, Secretary.
The idea met instant favor, and competition was eager and earnest. The grammar
school field days were enthusiastic events in the school life of the lads, A grand final
grammar school meet was held, in September, at which all the winners from their respective
schools met in competition, the prizes given by THE WORLD being gold, sliver and
bronze medals. ' '
48 The World.
Comptro<ller Metz was so much impressed by the beneficial results of THE WORLiD'S
field days that he gave an athletic field to the school boys of Brooklyn Boroug-h.
Thirty-eight schools in Manhattan Borough, twelve in the Bronx, twenty-eight in Brook-
lyn, seventeen in Queens and five in Richmond Borough, held each a separate field day In
1W)7,* and more than 20,000 grammar grade boys competed in the games, while upward of
100,000 school teachers and children witnessed the athletic combats.
Two thousand medals given by THE WORLD were awarded, 1,200 of silver and 800
of bronze, to the winners in the field day g-ames. Six hundred principals of schools and
teachers officiated at the meets as umpires, referees, judges, scoi-ers and timekeepers, and
at the field day of Manhattan No. 109, 520 boys participated in the sports. Eight city
park plaj'grounds, fourteen athletic fields and eight National Guard armories were used
by schools for THE WORLD games, and four meets were held on the roof gardens of
the respective schools, while eight meets were in city streets.
Two thousand grammar school boys participated in the grand final meet at Celtic
Park, the prizes being gold, silver and bronze WORI^D medals.
The games effected mental and morail good to an extent which both parents and
teachers commended. More enduring than the hour's glory of the games, however, was
the quality of clean manliness among the young athletes, stimulated and developed by
this competition.
Jariies E. Sullivan, President of the Amateur Athletic Union of America, declared the
finals "the most remarkable athletic meeting ever attempted," and General Wingate,
President of the Public Schools Athletic League, and Grammar School Principals Benjamin
Veit, John D. Fruanf, Frederick A. Berghane, W. L. Ettlnger, Charles C. Roberts,
John D. Condon, Charles D. Raine, William J. Leary, Gustave A. Carls, N. J. Lowe.
T. O. Baker, W. L. Sprague, George Millard Davison, J. D. Reardon and others declared
enthusiastically that the beneficial influence of THE WORLD'S meets was felt in every
bi-anch of the work of their schools.
THE WORLD'S PLATFORM.
On the occasion of a dinner of the executive staff of THE WORLD in honor of the
sixtieth birthday of Mr. Joseph Pulitzer, the following cablegram was received from him:
'"Express to the editors, managers and entire staff my warm appreciation of their
excellent and successful work for an institution which should always fight for progress
and reform, never tolerate injustice or corruption, always fight demagogues of all
parties, never belong to any party, always oppose privileged classes and public plunder,
never lack sympathy with the poor, always remain devoted to the public welfare, never
be satisfied with merely printing news, alwaj^s be drastically independent, never be afraid
to attack wrong, whether by predatory plutocracy or by predatory poverty.
"JOSEPH PULITZER."
Said the "New York Commercial": It is easily possible— more than probable, indeed—
that most of the members of the executive staff of THE NEW YORK WORLD, who were
dined in this city .in celebration of the sixtieth birthday of Mr. Joseph Pulitzer on April 10,
know that publication and its proprietor only in the latter-day relation of both to the
American public and American affairs. But there are men in plenty here in New York
and in every section of the country who recall vividly and with satisfaction how this
"Loohinvar" in journalism "came out of tlje West" in 1883— he was only thirty-six
years old then — and within an astonishingly short time had practically revolutionized
newspaper making here in the metropolis. He established new standards that had never
been dreamed of in the old order of things, and set a new pace that all of his oom-
petitors were forced to recognize and "catoh step" with, but with which not all of them
were able to keep up. It is no exaggeration to say that every daily newspaper existent
in New York twenty-four years ago is the better to-day for Mr. Pulitzer's coming, and in
nowise discredits any one of them or of those later established to place with him and
THE WORLD the initiative and the leadership in taking up abuses and wrongs and evils
and injustices in every form — public or semi-public — g-reat or small, political or social
or industrial or what not, and by persistent and vigorous exploitation seeking to displace
them with right and justice. His ideals have uniformly been high, his purpose unselfish,
his method for the most part commendable, and the example of them all-inspiring.
From "Life": Mr. Pulitzer's paper has been governed by those sentiments. The
editorials in THE WORLD are squarely for morality, public ^id private. Not only ex^
cellent specimens of English literature, clean-cut and forcible and always to the point —
they display a persistent courage ajjd a love of justice unique In modern journalism.
It Is not expected that all our contemporaries will agree with tlve Statement 50 Often
i»ade that "THE WORUD editorlaJs are the best in town."

W^t asaorltr Almanac antr ISnc^clopetrta.
AN ANNUAL REFERENCE BOOK OF UNIVERSAL. CONTEMPORANEOUS FACTS.
THE WORLD ALMANAC, prior to the acquisition of THE WORLD by Mr. Pulitzer,
was a thin pamphlet, published annually, containing, besides the customary astronomical
calculations and monthly calendars, the election returns, a list of Federal and New York
State officials, a necrologrj' and record of important events, and sometimes statistical sum-
maries of a few Grovernment reports. This matter was usually embraced within a hundred
pages, and served the needs of the times. The first issue appeared in 18G(3.
With the initial number of the present series, appearing in ISSG under Mr. Pulitzer's
proprietorship, THE WORLD ALMANAC took on the encyclopedic form. It ceased to be
a political manual merely, and became an expositor of all current information about tl.e
universe; a reference book of facts concerning everything of contemporaneous human interest.
In accomplishing this stupendous purpose THE WORLD ALMANAC has spared neither
labor nor expense. It has employed the best brains in organizing, and the best expert
knowledge in supplying information. The ablest specialists in the domains of science, liter-
ature, art, statistics, and political and social economics have been drawn upon j^early for
sei-vice. Thousands of circulars, accompanying return blanks, are sent to original sources
of information. The vast mass of material thus obtained has been collated and arranged
for publication by a permanent office staff. In all. it is estimated that ten thousand
persons contribute in some measure annually to the perfection and completion of THE
WORLD ALMANAC.
The distribution of THE WORLD ALMANAC Is co-extensive with the planet. It will
not only be found In the book shops of every principal city of the world, but it has its
constant users at such extremes of human habitation as Iceland and New Zealand, Man-
churia and <^ape Colony. Alaska and the Argentine Republic. It has been equally wel-
comed in the study of a great European savant and tlie domestic circle of the Grand Turk,
as an order from Sir Monier Monier- Williams, professor of Sanscrit at Oxford, and a larger
one from the Ottoman Minister at Washington in the same mail testifies. A single order
has come from Japan for as many as three thousand copies. An Arctic explorer departing
for the North Pole has taken a score of bound almanacs on board for the entertainment
of the ship's company during the long Winter nights. Copies will be found ih the reading-
rooms of practically every library and clubhouse in the United States. The Qovernment
supplies the consulates abroad with the book annually.
THE WORLD ALMANAC is used for reference yearly by two million inquirers after
current facts, and it is permanently kept in half a million homes and business offices.
And surely THE WORLD ALMANAC, in its own pages, may modestly call attention to
its influence and growth. A publication with millions of readers who look upon it as final
authority quite easily takes place among the "best sellers," even though it does not appear
weekly in the list. It is in a class by itself, and has a marvellous record.
TOKENS OF APPRECIATION FROM HIGH SOURCES.
From many hundreds of appreciative communications received annually, the following
have been selected for the wide range of personalities, vocations, and countries they rep-
resent:
WALTER WELLMAN. after his first Polar voyage:
"I embrace the first opportunity since my return to express my recognition of the
service which THE WORLD ALMANAC has done me and my companions while we were
in the Arctic Circle. During the long Winter nights, when we were encased in ice and
forced to depend on indoor material for entertamment, it never failed to be the source of
constant amusement, instruction and comfort. It did morw to reconcile us to our surround-
ings than anything else we had with us."
WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN in The Commoner:
"The amount of valuable information crowded Into THE WORLD ALMANAC is little
short of marvellous, and it will repay its cost many times over during the year."
OBCAR S. STRAUS, Secretary of Commerce and Labor:
"I keep the ALMANAC on my desk for reference during the year, and I find it a most
ready reference book."
The^late GEORGE WASHINGTON CHILDS, of Philadelphia:
■ 'Too much praise can hardly be lavished on this almost Invaluable annual compendium-
50 The 'World Ahnanac and Encyclopedia.
It would be difficult to suggest any method by which the work could better fulfil its func-
tions—that of being a handy and trustworthy guide for busy people of every class of life."
WILLIAM T. HARRIS, Commissioner of Education:
"As a book of ready reference, I consider the ALMANAC unsurpassed."
The late MAYOR PINGREE, of Detroit:
"I have thought so well of the book as to purchase and distribute a dozen or more of
them among my friends."
SENATOR TILLMAN, of South Carolina:
"I regard THE WORLD ALMANAC as one of the most valuable and handy compila-
tions I have ever seen."
GOVERNOR CHAMBERLAIN of Oregon:
"I have had frequent occasion to refer to THE W©RLD ALMANAC, and I havo never
failed to find the information sought."
T. M. MILLER, late Attorney-General of Mississippi:
"Like the great paper with which THE WORLD ALMANAC may said to be con-
nected, its worth cannot be overestimated. I have frequently consulted THE WORLD
ALMANAC and have been astonished at the variety, extent and accuracy of the Informa-
tion it contains."
GOVERNOR TOOLE of Montana:
"I wish to testify to its general accuracy."
AUGUSTUS VAN WYCK, Jurist, Democratic Candidate for Governor of New York in 1898:
"Never was so much information of daily use crowded in so small a space."
JOHN W. YERKES, United States Commissioner of Internal Revenue:
"The amount of valuable information in the 1906 WORLD ALMANAC, and the ease
with which this information can be reached, renders this publication of great value to a
busy man's desk."
CARROLL D. WRIGHT, late Commissioner of Labor:
"I use this ALMANAC a great deal and find it very trustworthy and valuable."
H. M. M'CRACKEN, D. D., LL. D., Chancellor of New York University:
"THE WORLD ALMANAC is used by me as a constant reference book on educa-
tional and other matter, and is found worth many times its cost."
THEODORE L. SEIP, D. D., President of Muhlenburg College:
"It is a thesaurus of useful information."
JAMES B. ANGELL, LL. D., President of the University of Michigan:
"I have found it of great convenience. It Is compiled with care and accuracy."
DANIEL C. OILMAN. LL. D., late President of Johns Hopkins University:
"Valuable alike for its accuracy and comprehensiveness."
THOMAS S. GATCH. Ph. D., President of the University of the State of Washington:
"It is used almost constantly by the members of our faculty, by our students in civics
and political economy, as well as by those connected with the debating societies. It Is the
best bureau of information of which we know."
W. J. BRIER, President of the Wisconsin State Normal School:
"It answers more questions correctly than any other volume in the library, with the
possible exception of the unabridged dictionary."
JOHN M. VAN DYKE, Principal of the Blairstown (N. J.) Public School:
"By its side lies an encyclopedia of eighteen volumes, and still another large book
calling itself a 'book of facts.' Weeks will go by possibly without a glance at any cf
these, while THE WORLD ALMANAC is used almost every hour. 1 do not make an exag-
gerated statement when I say that I could get Along without the others before I could
the last."
FRANCIS J. CHENEY, Principal of the New York State Normal and Training School:
"There has been brought together in compact and systematic form a vast amount of
Tite M^orld Abtiajidc and l^ncyclopedia. 61
^h»«i. ■ ' ■*
practical information, the mastery of which will make a student an intelligent citizen, so
far as current history is concerned."
HENRY WHITTEMORE, Principal of the Massachusetts State Normal School:
"Cne of the 'immortal indispensables.' "
C. M. I^IGIIT, Principal of the New Mexico Normal School:
■It is current history and deserves as much attention by pupils as earlier events."
E. W. WETMORE, Department of Natural Science. New York State Normal College:
"In preparing material for lessons in geography, history, literature, and science, it fur-
nishes, in concentrated and available form, needed facts which it would take hours to find
in the standard text-books and elaborate encyclopedias. I have both used it myself and
have recommended it to our pupil teachers for years as the most efficient and possible.
Every teacher and every scholar above the primary grade should have one constantly
within reach."
FRED S. ROOT, Pastor of th"e Park Congregational Church, Hartford, Ct.:
"In a weary mood this evening I picked up a copy of THE WORLD ALMANAC
and read, and read, and read until, to my surprise, the evening had almost disap-
peared, with my work all unfinished. Your ALMANAC is full of the most fascinating
information, and is easily superior to anything of its kind in the language. I am almost
tempted to study a page a day as an exercise in memory."
J. E. RANKIN. D. D., LL. D., President of Howard University, Washington, D. C. :
"When I took my grip-sack for a three months' trip abroad last Summer, the only
books I insisted on were the New Testament, Emerson's Poems, and THE WORLD
ALMANAC— religion, poetry, statistics."
STEPHEN A. NORTHROP, Pastor of the First Baptist Church. Fort Wayne, Ind. :
"I would not do without it under any circumstances. I keep it on my desk by the
side of my Bible, Webster's Dictionary, and Roget's Thesaurus."
The late WALTER S. CARTER, of Carter. Hughes & Rounds, Attorneys. New York:
"A great book is THE WORLD ALMANAC. In congratulating Mr. Leonard, editor of
"Who's Who in America," the other day. I told him that his book was worthy to rank with
Baedecker and THE WORLD ALMANAC."
Berlin Correspondent of THE WORLD:
"Travelling in the express to St. Petersburg , there sat opposite me Count Muravieff,
the Russian Foreign Minister. During the long journey he was completely absorbed in a
copy of THE WORLD ALMANAC."
K. Y. FUKUYAMA, Yokohama, Japan:
"It is a wonderful book,"
The late A. OAKEY HALL, ex-Mayor of New York:
"The copy used in this club (the Lotus Club) shows by its dilapidation how much it
has -been used. And what impresses all users whom I have met is the exceeding cleverness
and elasticity of arrangement for ready reference by author, journalist, and seeker after
'notes and queries' allied to daily domestic, business, or other conversational life."
The London Standard:
"The American Whitaker. It is a detailed census of Uncle Sam's people and an
Inventory of his belongings."
The New Y'ork Times:
"Its contents have always been what an almanac's contents should be— accurate, con-
cise, inclusive."
Thousands of less distinguished, but just as highly appreciated, readers as those quoted
In the foregoing paragraphs write complimentary letters to THE WORLD ALMANAC. One
of the most valued tributes is from a prisoner in a great Western penitentiary, who sent
through the wai'den of the prison for a copy of the 1907 ALMANAC, and wrote:
"For several years I have studied THE WORLD ALMANAC, and have turned many
hours which would otherwise have been dreary and wasted into hours of study. I have
acquired from THE ALMANAC quite a liberal education, and when I leave here a free
man I will be better fitted to make my way in the world than I was when I entered this
prison. It is a wonderful book."
The list need not be augmented. THE WORLD ALMANAC for 190S, without claiming
perfection, is nevertheless put forth with knowledge that a vast army will welcome It as th©
peerless statistical and encyclopedic publication of the year.

THE STORY OF HUMAN ENDEAVOR AND ACCOMPLISHMENT SINCE 1883.
So rapid has been the march of events during the past quarter of a century, and so
vital a bearing have those events had upon the world's history, that a mere retrospective
glance over the record since 1883, indicates with intensity the certainty of still greater
changes by a restless civilization before Father Time's dial marks the passing of another
twenty-five years.
When the new regime of The World begun with a wedding to progrress, Victoria sat
upon England's throne, nearing her diamond jubilee celebration. Chester A. Arthur, of
New York, had been elevated, by the assassination of James A. Garfield, to the Presidency
of the United States. The German Empire destinies were ruled by William I. The Emperor
of Russia was Alexander III. Humbert I. was completing his fifth year as King of
Italy. Francis Joseph I. had been for thirty-five years Emperor of Austi-ia, and the
veteran Pius IX. was Pope. Alphonso XIII., now King of Spain, had not yet been born.
Wilhelmina, Queen of the Netherlands, was just out of her cradle, and her father, William
III., was King. In brief, the vast majority of the ruling powers of 1883 have now laid
their sceptres before the great monarch Death. ;
1883
In the United States, the year 1883 opened with eyes centred on Washington, where
Congress was debating the House bill to reduce internal revenue taxation, which bill the
Senate reported with amendments embracing a thorough revision of the tariff, based upon
the report of the Tariff Commission. The bill was adopted by both houses on March 3.
In April, May and June political excitement ran high during the trials of General Brady
and ex-Governor Kellogg, of Louisiana, for complicity in the Star-Route frauds. They
were acquitted. In May the Brooklyn Bridge, from City Hall, New York, to Brooklyn,
was opened, after an expenditure of thirteen years' labor and $15,500,000. In June the
U. S. S. Yantic and Arctic steamer Proteus sailed from St. Johns, Newfoundland, for the
relief of the Greely scientific expedition to Lady Franklin Bay. In September the last
spike of the Northern Pacific railroad was driven at Independence Gulch, western Mon-
tana. The bi-centennial of the first German settlement in America was celebrated at
Germantown, Pa., in October. In the same month the United States Supreme Court pro-
nounced unconstitutional a number of the provisions of the Civil Rights bill. On October
1 domestic letter postage was reduced from three cents to two. In November Lieut. -Gen.
Philip H. Sheridan succeeded Gen. W. T. Sherman in command of the armies of the United
States, General Sherman retiring upon age limit.
In February, 1883, while the English Parliament gravely listened to the "speech from
the throne," expressing satisfaction at the "settlement" of the Egyptian struggle, events
in the Soudan were really precipitating the great clash less than a year later, when General
Gordon was hurried to Khartoum by the Gladstone government to find glory and death
in the noted siege. In Ireland the echo of the Fenian troubles which had led In 1882 to
the murder of Lord Frederick Cavendish and Thomas H. Burke in Phoenix Park, Dublin,
was heard when fell the drop of the gallows on which the assassins were hanged.
The universe, however, was fairly quiet twenty-five years ago, the earth's big family
behaving itself in a much more exemplary manner than it has in later days, when the
spirit of possession has stalked about with outstretched hands over widespread territory,
despite the instituting of international peace conferences. It Is an historic fact worthy
of record In 1908 that one of the things that has not changed In the two and half decades
now under consideration Is the appetite of the Hon for the lamb.
1884
The year 1884 was one of commotion In the United States, bringing the recurrence of
a Presidential campaign In which were crushed the ambitions of James G. Blaine, the nODa.*

Inee of the Republican party, through his defeat by Grover Cleveland, of New York, the
Democratic candidate. The battle was hard fought and acrimonious, and the triumph of
Mr. Cleveland opened freely to the National Democracy the White House doors, which
had been closed to it since the Incumbency of Abi^aham Lincoln. In the nominating con-
vention Mr. Blaine wrested the prize from President Arthur, Gen. John A. Logan, Senators
John Sherman, Joseph R. Hawley, George F. Edmunds and others. Logan was consoled
by being named for the Vice-Presidency. The Democratic National Convention considered
the names of Thomas F. Bayard, Thomas A. Hendricks, Allen G. Thurman, John G. Car-
lisle, Governor Hoadley, of Ohio, and Governor Cleveland. Cleveland was nominated on
the second ballot, with Thomas A. Hendricks as running mate. In the election on No-
vember 4 Cleveland and Hendricks received 4,911.017 popular and 219 electoral votes, the
Republican ticket receiving 4,S4S,334 popular and 182 electoral ballots. In this campaign
Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, of Massachusetts, was the candidate of the Greenback and Anti-
Monopoly parties, polling 123,835 popular votes. The Prohibition party polled 151,809
votes for its candidate, John P. St. John, of Kansas.
The month of May, 18S4, was marked by a financial sensation which attracted inter-
national attention. The failure of James R. Keene, who was said to have lost $4,000,000,
was immediately followed by the collapse of the Marine Bank, the Metropolitan Bank and
the firm of Grant & Ward, with which firm ex-President Grant was said to be connected.
General Grant borrowed $150,000 from William K. Vanderbilt to avert the crash, and lost
his savings. The Grants had much sympathy, and mortgaged all their property, declining
to let Mr. Vanderbilt cancel his loan. James D. Fish, president of the Marine Bank, and
Ferdinand Ward, active member of the firm of Grant & Ward, were arrested for fraud,
convicted and each sentenced to ten years' imprisonment at hard labor in Sing Sing, N. Y.,
prison. Other noteworthy events of the year in the United States were: The funeral cere-
monies in New York City of the remains of the victims of the Jeanette Arctic disaster,
Lieutenant-Commander George W. De Long, U. S. N., and others, on February 23; the
vetoing by President Arthur of a bill to restore Gen. Fitz-John Porter to the army and
retire him with rank of Colonel; the ratification of a treaty between the United States and
Mexico; the signing of a commercial convention between the United States and Spain; the
trial, conviction and twelve years' suspension of Brig.-Gen. D. G. Swaim, Judge Advocate-
General of the United States Army, charged with having attempted to defraud a banking
firm in Washington; the return of the Greely Relief Expedition from Arctic seas, with
Lieut. A. W. Greely and a few of his party alive, and with numerous dead; the laying of
the corner-stone of M. Bartholdi's statue of "Liberty Enlightening the World" on Bedloe's
Island, New York Harbor, with Masonic ceremonies, on August 5; the opening of the
Prime Meridian Conference in Washington, D. C, on October. 1; the signing of a reciprocity
treaty between the United States and Santo Domingo, and the setting of the capstone of
the Washington Monument in December. The New Orleans Exposition was formally opened
on December 16.
Abroad, in November, Prince Bismarck opened the Berlin Conference, dealing with
important questions anent Africa, and presaging a change in the time-honored foreign
policy of the United States. The American representative was John A. Kasson, who con-
tended for and attained in part the neutralization of the Congo and Niger, and who, in
conjunction with England's and Belgium's representatives, secured provisions for the sup^
pression of slavery and the slave trade, the amelioration and preservation of native races,
religious liberty and the encouragement of many laudable enterprises. If, however, the ter-
rible tales of subsequent Belgian cruelty to the blacks of Africa be at all true, both the
letter and the spirit of the conference seem to have had little affect in recent years toward
the betterment of conditions. In the Soudan.-^ in 1884. General Gordon was besieged at
Khartoum from February 18 by the Mahdi. In October a British expedition set out from
Cairo to ascend the Nile and release the beleaguered garrison.
1885
The Inauguration of Grover Cleveland as President, on March 4, 1885, was marked
by great rejoicing among Democrats of the United States. He named Thomas F. Bayard,
of Delaware, as Secretary of State; Daniel Manning, of New York, Secretary of the Treas-
ury; William C. Endicott, of Massachusetts, Secretary of War; William C. Whitney, (rf

Interior; A. H. Garland, of Arkansas, Attorney-General; William F. Vilas, of Wisconsin.
Postmaster-General. On March 12 the President withdrew the Nicaragua Canal and
Spanish reciprocity treaties from the S6nate for further consideration; on March 13 he
warned, by proclamation, all white settlers off the Oklahoma country, Indian Territory; on
March 19 the Senate approved the convention with Mexico for rectifying the boundary
and prolonging- the term for ratifying the treaty of commerce. On March 20 Secretary
Whitney asked for an accounting from John Roach, the noted ship builder, and instituted
an invesftigation of the Navy Department; the suspension of P>,oach followed this action.
The United States Supreme Court declared the Edmunds Anti-Polygamy bill constitutional
on March 23. On April 30 Mr. Cleveland named Anthony M. Keiley, of Virginia, as
Minister to Italj^ which country declined to receive him, whereupon he was appointed
Minister to Austria, and when that government followed Italy's course the nomination
w^as withdrawn and the mission left vacant. In June a diplomatic understanding was
reached at Washington between the State Department and the British Minister for the
extension of the privileges secured by the Treaty of Washington during the open season.
In September massacres of Chinamen in Wyoming, Idaho and Washington Territory led
to a protest by the Chinese Government; the President issued a proclamation against the
outrages, and thirteen ringleaders were later indicted. Six months later he sent a message
to Congress expressing his opinion that the United States was not liable either by treaty
or international law for the loss of life or property, but suggested that Congress indemnify
the Chinese sufferers as a matter of humanity. The first session of the Forty-ninth Con-
grress was opened on December 7, with John Sherman, of Ohio, as President pro tern of
the Senate (Vice-President Hendricks having died), and with John G. Cai-lisle, of Ken-
tucky, as Speaker of the House. On December 19 Congress voted a pension of $5,000 a
year to the widow of ex-President Grant. The successful blowing up of Flood Rock, near
Hallett's Point, East River, New York, by Gen. John Newton, U. ^S. A., in October, thus
removing a dangerous menace to navigation, was a noted engineering feat of the year
1885. The year also witnessed troubles in Central America. An alliance was formed by
Costa Rica, Salvador and Nicaragua to resist the President of Guatemala, who crossed
the frontier of Salvador with 15,000 men on March 28. The insurgents burned Aspinwall
on April 1, and United States troops and marines were sent there next day to protect the
communications between Aspinwall and Colon. Peace was concluded between the Central
American republics on April 16, and on May 3 was concluded a treaty between the United
States and Colombo for the joint preservation of order on the Isthmus. General Preston
was executed on August 25 for the burning of Aspinwall, and thus the warlike incident
closed.
England lost her heroic Gordon on January 2G, when the Mahdi took Khartoum, and
he fell two days before the British troops, under Wilson, reached that city. Wilson, find-
ing his mission vain, returned to Egypt. In Parliament the franchise was greatly lowered,
a redistribution of seats was effected, and, by the -Parnellite defection, Gladstone was
defeated on the budget and resigned June 9, the Conservatives taking office with Salisbury
as Premier. On June 12 Bechuanaland was annexed to the British Empire, and on No-
vember 13 Great Britain declared war against King Theebaw of Burmah.
1886
The events of 1886 in the United States included serious labor troubles. In March
the Knights of Labor boycotted the Gould railroad system in the Southwest, with fatal
conflicts between striking railroad men and military and civic authorities. Strikes were
general, demands being for higher wages and shorter hours, or both. On May 1, while
railroads and factories were paralyzed in Chicago, 40,000 worklngmen paraded. Anarchists
threw a bomb among the police in Haymarket Square with fatal effects. Rioting con-
tinued for two weeks. In August eight of the Anarchists were convicted of murder and
seven were sentenced to be hanged. The Cunard steamship Oregon, with 846 passengers
on board, was sunk by collision with a schooner off Long Island on March 14 without
fatalities. President Cleveland was married on June 2 to Miss Frances Folsom in the
A'^hlte House, Washington, D. C, by the Rev. Dr. Byron G. Sunderland. On June 17 the Most
Rev. James Gibbons, Roman Catholic Archbishop of Baltimore and Primate of the Church
In the United States, was created a Cardinal and was solemnly invested with the biretta

In his cathedral on June 30. An earthquake shock on the night of August 31, felt through-
out a large portion of the Eastern States, killed sixty-one persons at Charleston, S. C,
destroyed many buildings, entailing a financial loss of millions, and making thousands home-
less. The Boston sloop Mayflower defeated the British cutter Galatea in two consecutive
races for the America's Cup in September over Sandy Hook course. Geronimo and several
Apaches surrendered on September 4 to General Miles, on Skelton Canyon, Ariz,, and were
Imprisoned at Fort Marion, St. Augustine, Fla. In October 247 lives were lost in Sabine
Pass. Tex., and Johnson's Bayou, La., by inundations caused by a great gale in the Gulf
of Mexico. Bartholdi's statue of "Liberty Enlightening the World," on Bedloe's Lsland,
New York Harbor, was formerly unveiled with Imposing ceremonies, including a naval

were: The celebration of the centennial of the London Times; the presentation of a jubilee
gift from President Cleveland to Pope Leo XIII.; the appointment of Lord Stanley, of
Preston, as Governor-General of Canada; the celebration in London and Greece of the cen-
tennial of Lord Byron's birth.
Stirring events in the United States in 1888 were: The signing of the fisheries treaty
with Great Britain at Washington; the Introducing of the Mills Tariff bill in the House of
Representatives April 17; the ratification of a treaty with China by the United States
Senate; the adjustment of the differences between the United States and Morocco May 9;

York October 8; the adjournment of the first session of the Fiftieth Congress; the opening

marriage of the Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain and Miss Mary C. Endicott, daughter of

the Civil Ser\'ice law by the Postmaster-General. Naturally the occurrence of greatest
interest in the United States in 1S8S was the Presidential election. On June 6 the National
Convention of the Democratic party at St. Louis renominated Grover Cleveland by acclama-
tion, with Allen G. Thurman for Vice-President. In the National Republican Convention
at Chicago, June 25, Benjamin Harrison, of Inmana, was nominated for President on the
eighth ballot, his leading opponents being Senator John Sherman, Gen. Russell A. Alger
and Walter Q. Gresham. Levi P. Morton, of New York, was nominated for Vice-President
on the first ballot. Money was freely used in the campaign which followed, it being esti-
mated that the two great parties expended $6,000,000. Blaine threw himself into the cam-
paign for Harrison, many former Cleveland supporters deserted the Democracy, and the
lowering of the tariff made an issue which united protectionists. A Republican trick, how-
ever, did much toward turning the tide of battle against . Cleveland. In September George
Osgoodby, of Pomona, Cal., wrote, ostensibly as an Englishman, to Lord Sackville-West,
British Minister at Vv'ashington, cleverly asking the Minister's advice as to how natural-
ized Englishmen in the United States should vote, and reviev»-ing the President's record of
acts which Osgoodby termed "friendly to England." Lord Sackville-West fell into this
decoy letter trap, and replied expressing his confidence in Cleveland and the Democracy.
These letters were scattered broadcast by Republicans, and Cleveland was forced, by party
pressure, to ask for the Minister's recall. It was refused, whereupon Sir Sackville-West
was given his passports. This action was so strongly resented by the British Government
that the British Embassy in Washington remained vacant during the rest of Cleveland's
term. The November elections resulted in a substantial Republican victory, Harrison being
elected, the Senate remaining Republican, and a face majority of ten in the House being
secured by the Republicans.
1889
Two great disasters, the one of international interest, occurred in 1889. The first was
on March 16-17, when a hurricane at Apia, Samoan Islands, wrecked the United States
warships Nipsic, Vandalia and Trenton, and the German warships Eber, Olga and Adler.
The loss of life was 146, including Captain Sclioonmaker, of the Vandalia. The ships, with
the British Calliope, which escaped by putting out to sea, were at Apia because of the
di.spute between Germany, Great Britain and the United States concerning protectorate
government of the Samoans. The hurricane tragedy was so distinguished by the heroic
conduct of all the officers and men, irrespective of nationality, that war. talk ceased. The
other extraordinary disaster of the year was the flooding of Johnstown and the Conemaugh
valley, Pennsylvania, on May 31. by the breaking of a dam. ■ The loss of life was 2,295,
and the property loss was $10,000,000. A third notable disaster was at Antwerp, Belgium,
on September 6, when an explosion of dynamite cartridges killed 125 persons, wounded 300
and destroyed $6,000,000 worth of property.
In the United States the Republican party resumed full power at Washington, when
Benjamin Harrison was inaugurated President on March 4, making Blaine his Secretary of
State. In January the Republican tariff bill was passed by the Senate by a strict party
vote, 32 to 30. One of President Cleveland's last important official acts was to sign, on

1898
The entire civilized world watched, in 1898, the Spanish- American war (see special article
on the following page), and drew lessons from its incidental developments and conse-
quences. Especially were the war and navy departments of the universe keenly interested
in the metnods and results of the battles on land and sea, while the question of American
expansion and other future policies entered largely into the brief struggle which resulted
so disastrously to Spain. Other events of international interest and of a warlike nature

THE SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR.
Although the overstrained temper of the American people precipitated the Spanish-
American war, immediately after the destruction of the battleship Maine in Havana harbor
on February 15, 1898, a long series of persecutions of Cuba by Spain had aroused the sym-
pathies of American humanitarians, while years of disorder in the island made business men
of the United States also insistent upon a speedy restoration of tranquillity. The wanton
nassaore of the Virginius prisoners during Cuba's ten-years' war was never forgotten by
Americans, and Spain's haughty attitude did not tend to strengthen the bonds between
Washington and Madrid, In February, 1895, a new insurrection began in Cuba, and the
Spanish Government was warned that prompt and effective measures to suppress the trouble
must be taken. Spain sent great numbers of soldiers to Cuba, recalled General Campos
for alleged lack of activity and supplanted him by General Weyler, who soon won the
sobriquet of "Butcher" by his bloody methods. To fire, rifle and sword he added the
weapons of ^starvation and disease by driving norf-combatants into reconcentrado camps,
where he deprived them of food and other necessities. This was the state of affairs In
Cuba in February, 1896, when the United States Congress entered into investigation and
debate which resulted, April 6, in the passing of a resolution recognizing war between
Spain and the Cuban insurgents, offering the friendly offices of the United States to Spain,
and declaring that the United States should maintain a strict neutrality. General Weyler,
who had boasted when he assumed command that he would end the. insurrection in a few
months, accomplished little beyond increasing the sufferings of the Cubans, and his brutal-
ities led to vigorous remonstrances by the United States Government to the Spanish ministry.
Weyler was thereupon recalled, being succeeded by General Blanco; the policy toward the
reconcentrados was modified, and the semblance of an autonomous government for Cuba
was instituted. When 1898 came matters were worse instead of better in the island, and
the American press and public clamored for immediate improvement. The Spanish popula-
tion In Havana resented this, and there were ugly demonstrations against the Americans,
even the life of Consul-General Lee being threatened. The North Atlantic squadron had
assembled in the neighborhood of Dry Tortugas, Gulf of Mexico, during the first two weeks
of the year, and on January 25 the battleship Maine arrived at Havana on a friendly visit
and to preserve cordial relations between Spain and the United States. Spain at once informed
74 A Quarter- Century Record of Events.
the United States that the Spanish battleship Vizcaya would pay a sim-ilar visit to New
York harbor. Tension was Increased on February 8 when publication was mady of a letter
written bj' Senor de Lome, Spanish Minister to the United States, to a friend, in which he
gn*oss]y reflected upon President McKinlej\ De Lome then resigned. On February 9 the
United States Senate discussed intervention in Cuba. On February 14 resolutions i-equestlng
the President to transmit information relative to the situation in Cuba were adopted by
Congress. On February 14 Senor Luis Polo y Bernabe was appointed Spanish Minister to the
United .States to succeed Senor de Lome. On February 15 occurred the blowing up of the
battleship Maine in Havana harbor by a floating mine, 2G0 American lives being destroyed.
The United States was frenzied by this incident, few Americans believing that the Span-
iards were not responsible. Captain Sigsbee, of the Maine, asked for a suspension of judg-
ment pending an official investigation, while Spain promptly disclaimed any responsibility
and expressed regret. A Court of Inquiry was at once appointed. It consisted of Capt.
W. T. Sampson, of the Iowa; Capt. F. E. Chadwick, of the New York; Lieut. -Commander
W. P. Porter, of the New York, and Lieut. -Commander Adolph Marix, of the Vermont. The
court sat for a month at Key West and Havana, and the American people, with surprising
patience, awaited its verdict. Many witnesses were examined, divei's were employed on
the sunken vessel, and voluminous testimony was taken.
On March 21 the court unanimously agreed: "That the loss of the Maine was not In
any respect due to fault or negligence on the part of any of the officers or members of her
crew; that the ship was destroyed by the explosion of a submarine mine, which caused the
partial explosion of tv/o or more of her forward magazines, and that no evidence has been
obtainable fixing the responsibility for the destruction of the Maine upon any person or
persons."
While the high Spanish authorities were thus exonerated from any complicity In the
affair, and no disposition was shown in the United States to impute guilt to Marshal
Blanco, the finding that the Maine had been blown up by external means further Intensified
American feeling. In the meantime, on Rlarch 7, a bill appropriating $50,000,000 for the
national defence was introduced in the House of Representatives. It passed the House
March S, and the Senate March 9, and was signed by the President, the vote in Congress
having been unanimous. The mobilization of the army was ordered, and active preparations
were begun for the war which then seemed inevitable. On April 3 Consul Hyatt left San-
tiago. On April 10 Consul-General Lee left Havana, after seeing American refugees debark.
On April 11 General Lee landed in Key West, and President McKinley sent to Congress a
message describing the intolerable conditions existing in Cuba; advising against the recogni-
tion of the insurgents, to avoid international complications, and asking Congni-ess to take
action.
THE WAR BEGUN.
On April 13, by a vote of 311 yeas to 6 nays, thirty-eight members not voting in the
House, and in the Senate, by a vote of 42 yeas to 35 nays, twelve not voting, a joint reso-
lution was passed recognizing the right of Cuba to be free; demanding the immediate with-
drawal of Spanish land and naval forces from Cuba and Cuban waters; directing the
I*resident of the United States to use the entire land and naval forces and the militia of the
United States to enforce the resolution, and disclaiming any intention to exercise sovereignty,
jurisdiction or control over Cuba, except for the pacification thereof. The President signed
this resolution at 11.24 o'clock A. M., on April flO. When a copy was served on the Spanish
Minister he immediately aske<l for his passports and left Washington. The resolution was
also cabled to the United States Minister at Madrid, instructing him to inform the Spanish
Government, and giving Spain until April 23 to reply. Before Minister Woodford could
comply he received, at 7 o'clock on the morning of April 21, his passports from the Spanish
Minister for Foreign Affairs, and this act constituted the actual beginning of war. On the
day previous to this the Queen Regent of Spain appeared with the boy King before the
Cortes and pleaded for support of the throne.
On April 24 the Cortes formally recognized the existence of war, and April 25 Congress,
without a division, declared that war had existed since the 21st day of April, inclusive.
The President had proclaimed the blockade of Cuba April 21, and ordered Admiral
Sampson's squadron to enforce it. On April 23 a call was issued by the President for 125.000
volunteers, the regular army was concentrated at Tampa, Fla., and a great camp for vol-
xinteers was laid out at Chickamauga.

Germany, did the same. The President, by proclamation, reaffirmed the intention of the
United States to adhere to the declaration of Paris, defining the position of the United
States in regard to privateering, blockades, and Spanish and neutral merchant vessels with
their cargoes. Commodore Dewey's fleet sailed from Hong Kong for the Philippines April
25; Congress passed an act for the increase of the regular army April 2G; the batteries at
Matanzas, Cuba, were bombarded April 27; Admiral Cervera's fleet left the Cape Verde
Islands for the West Indies April 30.
DEWEY'S VICTORY AT MANILA BAY.
On Sunday evening. May 1, at sunrise, the first great battle of the war was fought In
Manila Bay and indicated to the world that the conflict between Spain and the United
States would be of short duration. Acting Admiral Dewey, engaging the fleet of Spanish
war vessels commanded by Admiral Montojo, in a few hours entirely destroyed the fleet.
The Spanish loss was 412 officers and men killed, while on the American side none wai
killed and only seven men were wounded. This victory aroused the wildest enthusiasm in
the United States, where Dewey became the hero of the hour, and was correspondingly
depressing to Spain. Ten days later Dewey was made a Rear- Admiral.
On May 11 an attack was made on Cienfuegos and Cardenas, Cuba, and Ensign Bagley
and four men on the torpedo-boat Winslow were killed; on May 11 Admiral Cervera's fleet
appeared off Mai-tinique; on May 12 Admiral Sampson bombarded San Juan, Porto Rico,
with but slight effect; on May 13 the Flying Squadron left Hampton Roads for Eastern
Cuba via Key West; a new Spanish ministry under Senor Sagasta came into office May 18;
Admiral Cervera's fleet arrived in the harbor of Santiago de Cuba May 19; the cruiser
Charleston sailed from San Francisco for Manila May 22; the battleship Oregon reached
Jupiter Inlet, Florida, May 24; the President issued a second call for volunteers, the number
being 75,000, May 25; the first Manila expedition from San Francisco May 25; Admiral
Sampson's fleet arrived at Santiago from Porto Rico May 30. On the following day the
forts at the entrance of Santiago harbor were bombarded by the fleets of Sampson and
Schley, Cervera being "bottled up" in the harbor. No damage was done to either the city
or the Spanish vessels, and. as the American fleet could not enter the harbor because of
mines, it was decided to wait until a land force could co-operate to drive Cervera out or
until he should attempt to escape.
Three days later than this occurred the daring episode of the sinking of the collier
Merrimac at the entrance to the harbor by a body of seven picked men under Xaval Con-
structor Richard P. Hobson, with the intention of blocking the harbor entrance. Under the
Spanish guns at the entrance to the forts, and in sight of the American fleet, the Merrimac
was driven at full speed and sunk by a hole being blown in her side, Hobson and his com-
panions trying to escape under fire, but being captured by the Spaniards. Despite the
bravery of the act. however, the result of making a barrier was not obtained.
WTien Shafter's army arrived and begun an attack on the outer works of the city. Cer-
vera found himself in the extremity of remaining in the harbor and being captured by the
troops or making a dash for the open sea. He chose the latter alternative, and on Sunday
morning, July 3^ at 9.30 o'clock, he pushed his vessels out in single column. They were
the Vlscaya and Oquendo, powerful armored cruisers; the Cristobal Colon and Maria Theresa,
and two torpedo-boat destroyers. The waiting American ships gave chase, and in two
hours had wiped the Spanish fleet out of existence, with a Spanish loss of 600 killed and
drowned and 2,000 captured, including Admiral Cervera. Again the United States rejoiced,
and the names of Sampson, Schley. Hobson and others who shared the naval victory were
written with those of Manila Bay fame on the roll of honor.
THE FALL OF SANTIAGO DE CUBA.
The army's turn came next. Santiago de Cuba, strongly entrenched, was the objective
point. As soon as Cervera had been safely locked in the harbor, orders were given to Gen-
eral Shafter to take his entire corps, the Fifth, on transports to Santiago. Because of lack
of sufficient means for transportation only 815 officers and 16,072 men went from Tampa.
On June 20 the convoy reached Guantanamo Bay, where for two weeks a small force of
marines had held the town and adjacent country, after skirmishing with the Spaniards, and
where there had been a bombardment of Fort Caimanera by American warships. The begin-
ning of the disembarkation of Shafcer's troops was at Daquiri on June 22, 6,000 men having
landed the first day with a loss of one killed and four wounded. . The following day 6.060
more were landed, and on the night of June 24 the entire corps was ashore, having met
76 A Quarter- Century Record of Events.
with but little resistance. General Lawton's division pushed forward to Siboney, followed
by Kent's division, the Cubans, in uncertain numbers under Garcia, assisting.
It had been intended that Lawton's division should occupy a strong defensive position
on the road from Siboney to Santiago, supported by Bates's brigade, with Wheeler's Cavalry
In the rear, on the road between Daquiri and Siboney. On the night of June 23, however,
General Young's brigade of Wheeler's division passed Lawton, and was therefore in advance
of Lawton on June 24. This brigade consisted of a part of the Tenth United States Cavalry
and two battalions of the First Volunteer Cavalry, better known as the Rough Riders.
Three miles from Siboney, on the road to Santiago, in a strong, natural position called Las
Guasimas, General Young found the Spaniards posted in considerable numbers, and the
American brigade, numbering 964 men, was taken by surprise. A battle ensued, and the
enemy driven from position, after obstinate resistance, with a reported loss of nine killed
and twentj'-seven wounded. The American loss was one officer and fifteen men killed and
six officers and forty-six men wounded. From this time until June 30 the American troops
were concentrated, and preparations were made for further advance. It was then decided
to attack and carry the San Juan hills and block-houses and the village of El Caney, north-
east of and three miles from Santiago, the positions named being strongly defended outposts
of the city. The Americans had but four light batteries, of four guns each. Lawton's
division, assisted by Capron's battery, was ordered to move out June 30, make an attack
along the road to El Caney early on the morning of July 1, carry El Caney, continue to
move along El Caney road and take a position near Santiago at the extreme right of the
line. Grimes's battery, of the Second, attached to Kent's division, was ordered on June 30
to prepare the way next morning for the attacks by Kent's and Wheeler's divisions on the
San Juan hills, the attack of which was to be delayed by the infantry until Lawton's guns
were heard at El Caney.
Information that the Spanish General, Pando, with 8,000 men, was rapidly approach-
ing to reinforce Santiago's defenders, made quick action imperative. At 6 o'clock A. M., on
July 1, Lawton was in position, with Chaffee on the right, Ludlow on the left, and Miles in
the centre. Stone block-houses and forts made doubly strong the position of the enemy, a
well-chosen, natural vantage ground. A general engagement soon followed the opening guns
at 6 o'clock. For two hours Lawton's command fought unaided, and then Bates's brigade
was ordered from the rear to support them. This brought the Seventy-first New York Vol-
unteers into the action. Slowly, but surely, the Spaniards, driven from their intrenchments,
fighting stubbornly, were forced to retire. Grimes's battery, after Lawton had become well
engaged, fired very effectively on the San Juan block-houses from the heights of El Pozo.
The Americans, however, were at a disadvantage, not using smokeless powder, as did the
enemy, with the result that it was difficult to locate the Spaniards, who soon had the
American range. The Spaniards also had the advantage of using field pieces.
When Lawton had become well engaged, the divisions of Wheeler and Kent, which had
been partially concealed, were ordered to deploy, to the right and left, respectively. The
terse report of General Shafter thus officially tells the result:
"In the meantime Kent's division, with the exception of two egiments of Hawkins's
brigade, being thus uncovered, moved rapidly to the front from the forks previously men-
tioned in the road, utilizing both trails, but more especially the one to the left, and crossing
the creek, formed for attack in the front of San Juan Hill. During this formation the
Second Brigade suffered severely. While personally superintending this movement, its
gallant commander, Colonel Wikoff, was killed. The command of the brigade then devolved
upon Lieutenant-Colonel Worth, Thirteenth Infantry, who was soon severely wounded,
and next upon Lieutenant -Colonel Liscum, Twenty-fourth Infantry, who, five minutes later,
also fell under the terrible fire of the enemy, and the command of the brigade then devolved
upon Lieutenant-Colonel Ewers, Ninth Infantry.
"While the formation just described was taking place. General Kent took measures to
hurry forward his rear brigade. The Tenth and Second Infantry were ordered to follow
Wikoff's brigade, while the Twenty-first was sent out to the right-hand road to support
the First Brigade, under General Hawkins, who had crossed the stream and formed on
the right of the division. The Second and Tenth Infantry, Col. E. P. Pearson, commanding,
moved forward in good order on the left of the division, passed over a green knoll, and
drove the enemy back toward his trenches.
. "After completing their formation unijer a destructive fire, and advancing a short di»-

tance, both divisions found in their front a wide bottom, in which had been placed a
barbed-wire entanglement, and beyond which there was a high hill, along the crest of
which the enemy was strongly posted. Nothing daunted, these gallant men pushed on to
drive the enemy from his chosen position, both divisions losing heavily. In this assault
Colonel Hamilton, Lieutenants Smith and Shipp were killed, and Colonel Carroll, Lieuten-
ants Thayer and Myer, all in the cavalry, were wounded."
Thus, on the night of July 1, the battle of El Caney was over, with the Americans
strongly holding all they had gained during the day, but with heavy losses, while the
reputed approach of General Pando made necessary a decisive victory before the enemy
could be reinforced. The Spaniards still held strong positions and must be driven out.
While the American lines were being rearranged and strengthened during the afternoon
and night of July 1, the two remaining batteries took positions near Grimes's and played
on the Spanish trenches. General Duffield's brigade, composed of the Thirty-third and
Thirty-fourth Michigan, with a Massachusetts regiment, assaulted the small outposts of
Aquadores. On the morning of July 2 the Spaniards opened battle with a fierce assault,
repelled, as were subsequent ones, by Kent and Wheeler, who remained behind their works.
On the right, meanwhile, Lawton advanced his lines and gained strong and commanding
positions. Fighting was renewed on the morning of July 3, but firing soon ceased, as the
enemy's lines gave way. At 8.30 o'clock A. M. General Shafter sent, under a flag of
truce to the Spanish commander, a demand for the surrender of the army and of the city
of Santiago. The reply, while not acquiescent, impelled General Shafter to wait. The
Spaniards were disheartened by the destruction of Cervera's fleet and by the knowledge
that reinforcements for the Americans were on their way. After numerous parleys, the
Spaniards surrendered the city and province of Santiago de Cuba on July 17, with more
than 22,000 troops, thus ending the campaign. The Spanish loss during the first three days
of July, while not accurately known, was about 1,500 officers and men, killed and wounded.
The American losses were 22 officers and 208 men killed, 81 officers and 1,203 men
wounded and 79 men missing.
THE PORTO RICO CAMPAIGN.
Porto Rico was won by military strategy rather than by fighting. The credit for this
belongs to General Miles and his officers, while in the Santiago campaign the courage and
discipline of the soldiers contributed largely to the splendid results. The Spaniards held
strong, natural positions throughout Porto Rico, with a garrison of 8,233 regulars and 9,107
volunteers. The force landed by Miles was but one-fifth of this number, 3,514 officers' and
men. After Santiago had surrendered General Miles promptly organized his Porto Rico
expedition, sailing from Guantanamo, Cuba, on July 21. . The Spaniards had assumed he
would land near San Juan, the capital, on the north side of the Island, but while he held
the enemy's attention by naval demonstrations off San Juan, and by the shelling of Ponce,
on the south side of Porto Rico, he quietly and quickly disc.nbarked his forces at Guanica,
a short distance we^ of Ponce, drove back the Spanish troops in a short but spirited engage-
ment, and proceeded to occupy Guanica and Ponce. The brigade of Generals Henry, Ernest
and Schwan pushed along the island roads to the interior, sending the heaviest forces along
the noted military road connecting Ponce and San Juan. On this road, on August 10, an
engagement resulted in a loss of one American killed and 16 wounded. At Coamo, on
August 9, General Ernest's troops captured 167 Spanish soldiers, and a little later the
Spaniards were shelled from an apparently Impregnable position at Albonlto Pass. There
were but nineteen days of active campaigning in Porto Rico, during which time much
of the island was captured by United States troops, with a total loss of only three killed
and forty wounded. There were six engagements, in all of which the Spanish were defeated,
and all their positions, except that of San Juan, were made untenable. On August 12
news of the suspension of hostilities ended the campaign, by which Porto Rico became a
part of the United States.
THE FALL, OF MANILA.
Although Dewey destroyed the Spanish fleet at Manila, and might have captured the
city by bombardment, the holding of such captured territory and the adjacent country
without a land force was obviously impossible. The Philippine campaign was therefore
actively begun immediately after the battle of Manila Bay. Gen. Wesley Merritt was

appointed Military Governor of the PliiJippine Islands, was assigned to the command of
the Eighth Corps, with headquarters in San Francisco, and was ordered to send troops as
rapidly as possible to the investment of Manila. The first expedition sailed on transports
from San "Francisco on May 25 and consisted of 158 officers and 3,428 men. Between then
and October other expeditions rapidly followed. General Men-itt himself arriving in the
Philippines late in July. By that time the Spanish lines were fairly well surrounded, the
outer lines of Manila having been invested by the preceding expeditions, under Generals
Anderson and Greene, and by the insurgents, under Aguinaldo. The Spanish oentie was
at Malate, a suburb of Manila. The American forces, reinforced by a division under Gen-
eral MacArthur, numbered more than 11,000 men on July 31. On that day the Tenth Penn-
sylvania Volunteer Infantry and part of the Utah Volunteer Artillery were posted behind
breastworks about 750 yards in front of Malate. Taking advantage of the fact that the
Insurgents had withdrawn to celebrate a feast day, the Spaniards, 3,000 strong, attacked
the American position on both flanks and front. The small American force was becoming
demoralized, when Battery K, Third United States Artillery, opportunely arrived and
restored confidence. Captain O'Hara, of the Third Artillery, intercepted a courier going to
General Greene for reinforcements and ammunition, and, without awaiting orders, sent out
the remaining battery H, of the Third, and hurried to assist Lieutenants Krayenbuhl and
Kessler, who, with Battery K, had halted the Spaniards. The regular battalion, with
Battery H, now numbered 125 men, who, with a cheer and with rapid and effective fire,
charged the Spaniards and put them to rout. The early arrival of reinforcement.s under
General Greene resulted in driving the enemy from the field. The honors of the day thus
rested largely with the small, regular battalion. The next night there was more fighting,
with slight American and heavy Spanish losses. "When General Merritt arrived it was
decided to force the situation, and he demanded the surrender of Manila. The Spanish
commander asked for a truce until August 13 to enable him to consult with his Govern-
ment. As he did not reply by the date last named, the American commanders ended the
suspense by a land and sea attack. The bombardment by the fleet opened in the morning,
and General Greene assaulted the city defences, losing eight killed and forty wounded.
Shortly after noon Manila capitulated. Further reinforcements arriving, the Americans
became masters of Luzon, with 18,000 men encamped on the former Spanish territory.
The Spanish Government, through French Ambassador Cambon. asked for terms of
peace on July 26, 1S98. President McKinley, through the French Ambassador, stated the
American terms on July 30. These terms were, on August 9, formally accepted by Spain,
and the French Ambassador was officially clothed by Spain with power to sign a protocol.
Spa^n agreed: To relinquish all claim of sovereigftty over and title to Cuba; to cede to the
I'nlted States the island of Porto Rico and other Islands then under Spanish sovereignty
in the West Indies, and also an island in the Ladrones, to be selected by the United States;'
that the United States should hoW and occupy the city, bay and harbor of Manila pending
the conclusion of the treaty of peace, which treaty should determine the control, disposition
and government of the Philippines; to immediately evacuate Cuba. Po*o Rico and other
islands under Spanish sovereignty in the West Indies. The protocol also provided for the
appointment ol Spanish and American Evacuation Commissioners, to meet at Havana, Cuba,
and San Juan, Porto Rico, to arrange for the evacuation of the two islands named by
Spanish troops; also, for the appointment of five fimnish and five American Commissioners
to treat of r>eace, at Paris, not later than October 1, 1898. Secretary of State William R.
Day, for the United States, and French Ambassador Jules Cambon, for Spain, signed this
protocol at 4.23 o'clock P. M. on August 12, 1898.
Upon receipt of the news of the signing of the protocol hostilities ceased, the blockade
of the Cuban coast was at once raised, and the battleships and cruisers returned to the
United States for needed i-epairs. On September 9 the United States named its Peace Com-
missioners to meet at Paris, and on September 18 the Spanish Government did the same.
The American Commission was composed of William R. Day, of Ohio; Cushman K. Davis,
of Minnesota; William P. Frye. of Maine; George Gray, of Delaware; Whitelaw Reld, of
Nevt York. The Spanish Commission consisted of Eugene Montero Rios, Buenaventura

Spanish shipping to be treated as coasting vessels; for the termination of the obligations
of the United States to Spanish citizens and property in Cuba with the withdrawal of the
United States authorities from the island; and, finally, for the ratification of the Areaty

was transmitted to the United States Senate by the President January 14, 1S99, was ratified
by the Senate February 6; signed by the President February 10; signed by the Queen
Regent March 17, and ratifications were exchanged April 11. The evacuation of Cuba
by Spanish troops v/as completed on January, 1899. In Porto Rico the evacuation was
completed on October 17, 1898, and on the following day the United States flag was
hoisted at San Juan, formal possession thus being assumed, with Gen. John R. Brooke
as first Governor.

THE BOXER REBELLION.
For three years prior to the enforced occupation of China by the Powers in 1900 trouble
for foreigners had been brewing in the Flowery Kingdom. Since 1898 Russia had taken
Port Arthur and the adjacent harbor of Talien-wan. Germanj- had leased Kiaochau and
gained great concessions in the province of Shang Tung. France had suggested privileges
in portions of Chinese territory adjacent to the French possession of Tonquin. Great
Britain, to cap the climax, had obtained from China a lease of Wei-Hai-Wei, on the south
shore of the Gulf of Pechili, opposite Port Arthur, and thus commanded the entrance to
the gulf and the water approach to Peking.
Many Chinese were resentful of these encroachments by foreigners, but the Dowager
Empress did hot, and hence she was bitterly opposed by her people. The leader of this
opposition was Prince Tuan, the sixth son of the Emperor Kwang-Su's grandfather. Prince
Tuan had long been an athlete and had a following of many athletic young men in the
kingdom, who, because of their ability in sports, were known as boxers, a name which
Tuan's recruits adopted. Tuan proclaimed his nine-year-old son heir presumptive to the
throne. The Emperor, then but a figurehead, dominated by the Dowager Empress, had
little popular support. The Boxers revolted, massacred missionaries at many interior points
of the Empire, and finally made a concerted attack upon the foreign legations in Peking
in which movement the Imperial troops eventually participated.
The Chinese Tsung-li-Yamen, the equivalent to a responsible government ministry in
Europe, was in sentiment hostile to foreigners, and hence either would not, or could not, pro-
tect the legations or escort them safely from the country. The civilized world received dis-
tressing reports of massacres and outrages, and was for several weeks in suspense as to the

fate of the foreign ministers in China, their families, legation attaches and cbnvei-ted
Chinese under foreign protection. The offended Powers decided upon concerted action and
hurried vessels and troops to the ports nearest to the danger points. Upon Chinese resist-
ance to the landing of marines at Taku the forts were shelled by all the allies except Amer-
icans, and on June 17, while the Chinese shelled the allies' fleet, the allied troops landed
and captured the Taku forts, after a sanguinary conflict. On June 18 the Ninth United
States Regiment was ordered from Manila to China, other troops following. On June 20
German fury and general international indignation was aroused when Baron von Ketteler,
the German Minister, while proceeding on a diplomatic mission to the Tsung-li-Yamen in
Peking, was beset by Chinese soldiers and butchered. On the same day an allied expedition
under Vice-Admiral Seymour, of the British Xavy, began a march upon Peking for the
relief of the British legationers. Such countless hordes of Chinese opposed him that he was
obliged to turn back, suffering casualties of 374. The allied warships shelled Tien-tsin on
June 21, and the combined forces, two daj-s later, occupied the foreign quarters of that city.
The Chinese, on June 2.3, requested an armistice through Minister Wu at Washington. The
United States promptly replied that free communication must first be allowed with the
legations, and on July 4 Secretary of State Hay outlined to the Powers the American policy.
On July 13-14 occurred one of the noted conflicts of history, when the allied forces
stormed the Chinese part of Tien-tsin, which they captured with a loss of 800 killed and
wounded. Col. E. H. Liscum, commanding the United States contingent, was among the
slain. On July 19 the Emperor of China appealed to President McKinley for peace. The
advance of the allies upon Peking began August 4, under command of Field Marshal von
Waldersee, of the German army, who was unanimously selected to command the allied
forces.
The first news from the beleaguered foreigners reached the United States in the form
of a cipher message from Minister Conger. It read: "Still besieged. Situation more pre-
carious. Chinese Government insisting on our leaving Peking which would be certain death.
Rifle firing upon us daily by Imperial troops. Have abundant courage, but little ammu-
nition or provisions. Two progressive Yamen ministers beheaded. All connected with the
legfation of the United States well at present moment." The receipt of this message caused
intense excitement throughout the United States, for, though it broke the long suspense, it
added to public fury and anxiety. On August 8 Li Hung Chang was appointed Envoy Pleni-
potentiary to propose to the several Powers for the immediate cessation of hostile demon-
strations. On August 14 Peking was captured by the allied forces of the Americans, British,
Germans, French, Austrians, Italians and Japanese, the American troops being the first
to enter the city, and Captain Reilly being killed. The Emperor and Empress had fled. The
legationers were promptly relieved and told thrilling stories of their danger and distress
during the long siege. The Chinese, on August 16, asked for an armistice, which was
refused. Li Hung Chang's appeal was rejected by the United States, and China was
informed that the demands of this Government must be complied with. At the same time
General Chaffee was given full power to act. The American refugees from Peking reached
Tien-tsin safely on August 25.
CHINA PAin THE PENALTY.
On November 19 the negotiations between the allies and the Chinese authorities for
terms of peace and compensation, which were begun when the allies took full possession of
Peking, had progressed so far that the German Imperial Chancellor in the Reichstag
announced that the allies had unanimously agreed upon the following as their demands upoL
China:
First: China shall erect a monument to Baron von Ketteler on the site where he was
murdered and send an Imperial Prince to Germany to convey an apology. She shall inflict
the death penalty upon eleven princes and officials already named, and suspend provincial
examinations for five years where the outrages occurred.
Second: In future all officials failing to prevent anti-foreign outrages within their
jurisdiction shall be dismissed and punished.
Third: Indemnity shall be paid to States, corporations and individuals. The Tsung-li-
Yamen shall be abolished and its functions vested in a Foreign Minister. Rational inter-
course shall be permitted with the Emperor, as in civilized countries.
84 A Quartci'^Ceoitury Record of Events.
Fourth: The forts at Taku and other forts on the roast of Chi-li shall be razed, and
the importation of arms and war material prohibited.
Fifth: Permanent leg-ation guards shall be maintained, and also gruards of communica-
tion between Peking and the sea.
Sixth: Imperial proclamations shall be posted for two years throughout the Empire sup-
pressing Boxers.
Seventh : Indemnity is to include compensation for Chinese who suffered by bein^
employed by foreigners, but not compensation for native Christians.
Eighth: China shall erect expiatory monuments in every foreign or international burial
ground where the graves have been profaned.
Ninth: The Chinese Government shall undertake to enter upon negotiations for such
changes in existing treaties regarding trade and navigation as the foreign governments
deem advisable, and with reference to other matters having in view the facilitation of com-
mercial relations.
In December, 1900, the Chinese authorities had accepted all the foregoing conditions
imposed by the allies, and the preliminary note of the demands of the Powers was signed
by Li Hung Chang and Prince Ching. Another year, however, was devoted to a final settle-
ment of affairs. The allied commanders in Peking organized a judicial system on January
15. On January 22 the Shan-hai-Rivan Railway was given over to the Germans by the
Russians. Russia refused, on February 2, to consent to the execution of Prince Tuan, and
public demand was made on February 6 by the foreign ministers in Peking for the heads
of twelve Chinese officials. The United States, on February 19 protested against further
niilitary expeditions in China. The next day the Germans were attacked at Paoting-fu.
On February 21 the Powers agreed to acquire no Chinese territory without international
consent. Chi Hsin and Hsu Ching Tu were executed at Peking February 27. On March 8
the Chung-sun Pass was captured by the Germans. Japan's protest regarding the Man-
churia Convention was replied to by Russia April 3, Russia saying that terms would be
discussed after their acceptance; China, on the same date, declared herself unable to sign
the Manchuria Convention. On April 23 the Germans, in an engagement, forced the Chinese
over the grreat wall, but with considerable loss. Peking was evacuated by the American
cavalry and artillery May 5, and General Chaffee embarked for the Philippines May 18.
The Powers, on May 9, demanded of China a formal indemnity of 450,000,000 taels (about
$300,000,000), which was agreed to by China and the Powers, on July 26, formally accepted
China's offer to pay the sum named on time at 414 per cent, interest. Prince Chun, at
Berlin, September 4, formally apologized to Emperor William for the insult to German
honor in the murder of Baron von Ketteler. On September 17 the American and Japanese
troops in Peking handed over the Forbidden City to the Chinese. Li Hung Chang, who
had taken such a prominent part in peace negotiations, died on November 7.
The terms of the new Manchuria agreement were made public on November 18. By
this agreement China gave to Russia exclusive mining and railway privileges in Manchuria,
and the command of all the Chinese troops there by the Russian aufiorities, Russian occu-
pation to end in three years. President Roosevelt, in his annual message to Congress on
December 2, 1901, highly praised the United States Plenipotentiary, William Woodville
Rockhill, for his good judgment and energy in the conference of the Powers which induced
China to sign a final protocol for the betterment of conditions in China and assurance of
more desirable international relations. On January 7, 1902, the Emperor and Empress
Dowager re-entered Peking, and on April 8, 1902, was signed, at Peking, the convention
between China and Russia regarding Manchuria.
The United States Congress, by act approved April 29, 1902, re-enacted much of the
Chinese Exclusion act of September 13, 1888, extended said law to all territorial possessions
of the United States, authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to make and prescribe
necessary rules and regulations to secure efficient execution of the act, and provided for the
issuance of certificates of residence to Chinese laborers entitled to remain in the United
States or insular possessions. All Chinese in the T'nited States were compelled to register
such a certificate or be deported within a year. Exemption was granted to Chinese
coming to the United States to install or attend to exhibits in any fair or exposition
authorized by act of Congress. In the Philippines the term of registration was extended
to within two years, if so longr a time was found to b© necessary.

1901
The advent of the twentieth century was celebrated with demonstrations throughout
the United States and in many cities of the Old World on January 1, 1901. Quiet gen-
erally prevailed, except in South Africa, where the Boer war raged during the entire
year, and in China, where the Allies and Chinese frequently met in armed conflict, as
described elsewhere. At home, the nation was inexpressibly shocked and well-nigh fren^
zied by the assassination of President McKinley while he was holding a reception in the
Temple of Music at the Pan-American Exposition, Buffalo. The assassin, Leon Czolgosz,
fired two shots, one bullet entering the President's arm and the other perforating his
stomach. The President survived an immediate operation, but died on September 19 from
his wounds at the home of John G. Milburn, in Buffalo. Vice-President Theodore Roose-
velt took the oath of office as President immediately after McKinley's death. The
assassin Czolgosz was tried September 24, and was in nine hours found guilty and sen-
tenced to death in the electric chair during the week of October 28. On October 29 he
was electrocuted at Auburn prison. Mr. McKinley was inaugurated on March 4 for his
second term. In May he made a trip to the Pacific Coast and was received with great
enthusiasm. Other notable occurrences in American territory during the year were: On

1902
The strenuous career of President Roosevelt was well under way when 1902 opened.
On January 20 he sent to Congi-ess the report of the Isthmian Canal Commission, recom-
mending the 'purchase of the Panama Canal Company rights for $40,000,000. On
February 19 he refused to reopen the Sampson-Schley controversy. On July 4
he issued orders establishing civil government in the Philippines and granting amnesty
for political prisoners. On September 3 he narrowly escaped being killed near Pittsfield,
Mass., his coach being struck by a trolley car; the President was slightly injured, and
Secret Service Agent Craig was killed. On October 16 he appointed a commission to
investigate and settle questions involved in the coal strike. It was in 1902 that the ques-
tion of the annexation of the Danish West Indian islands of St. Thomas, St. Johns and
St. Croix to the United States aroused international attention. A treaty with Denmark
for the purchase of these islands was ratified by the United States Senate February 17,
after a plebiscite showed a large majority of the islands to be in favor of annexation. The
Danish L'^pper House, however, on October 2. refused, by one majority, to cede the islands
to the United States. Other events of special interest in the United States were: T'hje

the republic, and presented an ultimatum on December 9, seizing the Venezuelan fleet
the same day. On December 10 the British and German fleets landed marines at La
Guayra, Venezuela, and seized the custom house. On December 14 the same fleets bom-
barded and demolished a Venezuelan fort at Puerto Cabello.
One of the most terrible disasters in the world's history marked 1902, when, on May 7,
an eruption of Mont La Soufriere, St. Vincent, British West Indies, destroyed 2.000 lives
and laid two-thirds of the island in waste. The next day, early in the morning, Mont
Pelee, Martinique, destroyed the city of St, Pierre, with 30,000 people. All civilization
shuddered at the tragedy, and the United States was the first to afford relief. A second

THE BOER WAR.
The reinforcing of the British troops in South Africa along the borders of the Trans-
vaal Republic, together with differences on the franchise question, coupled with grim
recollections of former armed clashes between Great Britain and the sturdy, patriotic
Boers, all tended to hasten the conflict of 1899-1900, one of the most sanguinary in the
world's history. As an effort to avert war a conference was held May 31, 1899, between
Sir Alfred Milner, Governor of Cape Colony, and the Presidents of the Dutch Republics
at Bloemfontein, in which terms for the adjustment of the claims of the Outlanders were
discussed, but no agreement was reached. Between June 1 and October 10 negotiations
proceeded between the governments of Great Britain and the Transvaal, while the Legisla-
ture of the latter adopted franchise laws which were not acceptable to Great Britain. In
the meantime both countries made energetic preparations for war, and the. Orange Free
State announced that in case of hostilities it would support the Transvaal.
On October 10 the Transvaal sent to the British Government an ultimatum demanding:
That all points of mutual difference be regulated by friendly recourse to arbitration or
by whatever amicable way might be agreed upon by the governments concerned; that
all Britisn troops on the border of the Transvaal Republic should be instantly withdrawn;
that Great Britain should withdraw all reinforcements of troops landed in South Africa
since June 1, 1809. with assurance that during further negotiation the Republic would
not attack any British possessions, and that upon compliance with the ultimatum the
Republic would be prepared to withdraw from the borders the armed burghers of the
Transvaal; that the British troops then on the high seas should not be landea in any part
of Africa; that an answer to the ultimatum be "eceived by the Republic not later than 5
o'clock P. M. on October 11; that an urisatlsfactory answer would be regarded by the
Republic as a formal declaration of war by Great Britain, as would also be a further
movement of British troops in a nearer direction to the Republic's borders. ^
On October 12, 1899, the reply of the British having been unsatisfactory, the TranS-

vaal Boers invaded Natal, advancing toward Newcastle, which was defended by the
British Generals White and Symons. The British evacuated Newcastle and fell back on
Ladysmith, where, on October 13, there was a strong British force. On October 20 the
Boers begun the siege of Kimberley, and on the same day in Natal was fought the battle
of Dundee, in which the British repulsed the Boers, suffering a loss of 215 in killer and
wounded. On October 1 General French captured the Boers' position at Elandslaagte
after a hard battle, with a British loss of 257 killed and wounded. General White repulsed
a Free State force at Rietfontein, near Ladysmith, October 24. Five days later the Boers
began the siege of Ladysmith. On October 30, in a sortie near Ladysmith, the British
were entrapped and defeated, and the Boers captured 870 prisoners. Communication with
Ladysmith was cut off by the Boers on November 2, and the next day the British evac-
uated Colenso, in Nat-al. The Boers shelled Mafeking November 6, but were repulsed in
an attack on the British position. The first British transport carrying reinforcements
reached Cape Town on November 9 and proceeded to Durban. The Boers wrecked a
British armored train near Eastcourt, Natal, on November 16, capturing fifty-six prisoners,
including Winston Churchill. On November 23, near Gras Pan, Lord Methuen attacked
the Boers and drove them from their position, and on November 26 the British won a
sanguinary victory at Modder River. A series of Boer successes then followed. On
December 10 the British, under General Gatacre, were led into a Boer ambuscade near
Stormberg Junction and lost 1,000 men, including 672 captured, while on the same and
following day Lord Methuen failed to take the Boer position at Spytfontein after desperate
fighting and heavy losses. General Wauchope being killed. On December 15 General
Buller was severely defeated while attempting to force the Tugela River, near Colenso,
he losing 1,000 men and eleven guns. The British losses to this date were 7,630 men
killed, wounded and missing, and the attention of the civilized world was riveted upon the
war. After Buller's signal defeat Field Marshal Lord Roberts was ordered, December 18,
to South Africa, to take command of military operations, with Lord Kitchener as chief
of staff, and with a reinforcement of 100,000 men.
General French captured Colesburg on New Year's day, 1900. On January 6 Roberts
and Kitchener arrived in South Africa, and on the same date the Boers were repulsed
with heavy loss in an attack on Ladysmith. On January 23-25 occurred some of the most
desperate and famous fighting of the war, when a British storming party under General
Warren captured Spion Kop, but, after heavy losses, withdrew. General Buller made a
third attempt to relieve Ladysmith, but failed, February 9, and Lord Roberts began an
Invasion of the Orange Free State on February 12. General French relieved Kimberley on
February 15. On February 22-27 there was severe fighting between Roberts and Cronje,
terminating with the capitulation of the latter, with 4,600 men and six guns. Lord Dun-
donald entered Ladysmith on February 28, and General Gatacre occupied Stormberg on
March 5. On March 7 Lord Roberts turned the Boer position near Modder River and
advanced triumphantly on Bloemfontein, capital of the Orange Free State, which sur-
rendered to the British on March 13. The Boer Commander-in-Chief, General Joubert,
died on March 27, and Colonel de Villebois Mareuil, French officer with the Boers, was
killed In a skirmish on April 5. General Cronje and the other Boer prisoners were sent
to St. Helena, where they arrived April 14, and the demoralization of the Boers seem-
ingly begun. On April 20 Mr. Pettigrew, in the United States Senate, introduced a reso-
lution of sympathy with the Boers, but it was voted down, 29 to 20. On May 3 Lord
Roberts began his advance on Pretoria.
The Boers now turned to the United States and Europe for intervention. Consul Hay,
on May 10, sent to Washington from Pretoria a telegram stating that he was officially
requested by the" governments of the republics to urg-e intervention by the United States
with a view to the cessation of hostilities. The same request was made to representatives
of the European Powers. President McKinley directed Secretary of State Hay to convey
to the British Government the substance of Consul Hay's telegram, expressing the earnest
hope that a way to bring about peace might be found, and to say that the President would
be glad to aid in any friendly manner the promotion of so happy an end. The Transvaal
Government was at the same time informed of President McKinley's action in the matter.
Lord Salisbury replied to Secretary Hay thanking the President for the friendly Interest
shown by him, but added that Her Majesty's Government could not accept the intervention
of any Power. Through Consul Hay at Pretoria this communication was immediately

transmitted to President Kruger, of the South African Republic The United States, so
far as Secretary Hay was Informed, was the only Government In the world of all those
approached by the South African Republic which tendered its good offices to either of
the combatants in the interest of the cessation of hostilities.
Thus the war continued. On May 10 the British crossed the Zand River and occu-
pied Kroonstad, and on May 15 General Duller occupied Dundee. The Boer envoys to the
T'nited States reached New York on May 16, the day that Mafeklng was relieved, after a
siege of 217 days. President McKinley received the envoys unofficially, but they were
officially informed by Secretary of State Hay that the United States could not intervene
in the war. The end of the struggle was not yet, however, in sight. On May 28 Lord
Roberts proclaimed the annexation of the Orange Free State to the British Empire. The
British entered Johannesburg on May SO. and on the same day President Kruger retired
from Pretoria, which city surrendered on June 5 to the British army. General Prinsloo and
3,343 Boers surrendered at Naauwpoort, and Harrismlth surrendered to General Macdonald
on August 4. Several conspirators against the life of Lord Roberts were tried at Pre-
toria August 17, and their leader was executed. Machadodorp, Kruger's new capital, was
occupied by General Buller August 28. On September 1 the Transvaal was proclaimed a
part of the British Empire by Lord Roberts. Guerilla warfare, which had begun July 1,
was now general in the Transvaal, and the Boer Generals DeWet and Botha continued to
harass the British by sporadic raids. Ex-President Kruger, abandoning the Transvaal,
began his journey to Europe September 12. He arrived at Marseilles on November 22 and
had an ovation from the French people, the demonstrations of welcome continuing through
his journey to Paris, while the National French Assembly adopted resolutions of sympathy.
On November 30 the supreme military command in South Africa was turned over to Lord
Kitchener by Lord Roberts, who departed for home, sailing for England from Cape Town
on December 12. In the meantime the German Government intimated to Mr. Kruger on
December 1 that a visit by him to Berlin would be Inopportune. Queen Wilhelmina of
the Netherlands, on the contrary, welcomed Mr. Kruger at a dinner on December 15. The
British met with a severe reverse at Nooltgedacht December 13, Colonel Legge being
killed. On December 14 Sir Alfred Milner was appointed Administrator of the Orange
River and Transvaal colonies, and the year closed with both sides grimly determined to
continue the terrible warfare to a definite conclusion.
A YEAR OF DEADLY STRUGGLE.
The first battle of 1901 was at Lindley. Orange River Colony, where forty British
officers and men were killed or wounded. On January 7 the British position along Del-
agoa Bay Railway was unsuccessful!!^' attacked by the Boers, who were also driven back
on January 17 near Standerton, when they attacked a British column under General Col-
ville. On January 18 New Zealand troops and Bushmen, under Colonel Gray, routed 800
Boers near Veutersburg. On January 30 the Bloemfontein-Ladybrand line was crossed by
DeWet near Israel's Poort. and the Boers captured the British post at Modderfontein, In
the Transvaal, on February 3. at about which time the British War Office decided to
reinforce Kitchener with 30,000 additional mounted troops General Smith-Dorrien was
attacked by Louis Botha with 2.000 men at Orange Camp February 6, but repulsed him.
On the same date the Boers cut the Delagoa Bay Railroad, near Lorenzo Marqu&s; ten
days later DeWet crossed the railroad at Bariman's Siding and was engaged by Crabbe
and an armored train, and on February 10 the Boers blew up a supply train at Clip
River. Four severe Boer reverses then followed in quick succession. The Boers. 5.000
strong, were defeated by General French at Plet Retief February 22; DeWet's force was
scattered by Colonel Plummer at Dlsselfontein, Orange River, February 23; General
French captured 300 Boers, ammunition, cattle and supplies at Middleburg February 26;
Lord Kitchener drove DeWet north of the Orange River, with a loss of 280 men captured.
March 1. Lord Kitchener then granted General Botha a seven days' armistice to make
communication with other Boer leaders, after which truce hostilities were resumed. The
Boers captured a British supply train near Viaklaagte March 22. but were defeated three
days later near Vryheid by General French. On March 27 Fourie's commando and Bruce

Hamilton's command held a running fight for twenty miles. CoBimandants Prinsloo and
Englebrecht surrendered to the British March 30, and the Bl«itish rcoccupied Pietersburg
on April 0, on which date the Boers captui-ed seventy-five men of the Fifth Infantry and
Imperial Yeomanry. General Botha, on April 10, renewed negotiations for peace. Sir
Alfred Milner, returning home from South Africa, was received by the King and created
a peer May 21. The Boers, again for a time, rejoiced over successes. They attacked and
partially destroyed the convoy of General Plummer's column May 2u; captured a British
post of forty-one men near Maraisburg May 27, and attacked General Dixon s ^"''e^^^ ««
the Seventh Yeomanry near Vlakfontein May 20. causing a heavy British loss^ On June
3 an attack by 700 Boers under Scheeper upon WiUomore, Cape Colony, NNas repulsed
after a nine hours' fight. The British and Boers lost heavily in an engagement between
Ellitvt and DeWet near Reitz June 6, and on the same day Colonel Wilson, with 240 men,
routed 400 Boers under Bever near Warm Baths. The Boers captured 200 members of
the Victoria Mounted Rifles at Steenkoolsprint June 12, and the Midland Mounted Rifles
were overpowered by Commandant Malan at Waterkloof June 20;
President Schalk-Burger, of the South African Republic, and President Steyn, of
Grange Free State, issued a proclamation for '"no peace without independence" June 20,
and on August 7 Lord Kitchener issued a proclamation of banishment against all Boers
in South Africa not surrendering by September 15. In the meantime General B«nson
repulsed the Boers in a mountain pass near Dullstroem, and, though the inevitable end of
the warfare was becoming daily more apparent, fighting was continued. Fifty of General
French's scouts were captured in Cape Colony August IG; three officers and sixty-five
British north of Ladybrand were captured August 21; the Boers attacked a convoy near
Kooipopje and killed nine men of the Seventy-fourth Yeomanry, wounding twenty-three,
on August 24; Colonel Vandeleur and nine men were killed and seventeen wounded by
the blowing up of a train, in the Transvaal August 31; Von Tonder and Delarey engaged
General Methuen in the Great Maries valley September 8. Then, on September 16, the
British troops captured Letter's entire command south of Pietersburg, and on the following
day the Boers partially evened matters by ambushing and capturing three companies of
British mounted infantry under Major Gough near Scheeper's Nek. and also by capturing
a company of mounted British infantry and two guns at Vlakfontein September 20. Two
Boer commandos w^ere captured September 21 near Adenburg, and Col. the Hon. A. Murray
and Captain Murray, his adjutant, were killed in a fight with Krintzsinger, who crossed
the Orange River. On September 29 Commandant Delarey attacked Colonel Kekewich's
camp at Moedwill, with loss on both sides.
THE APPROACH OF THE INEVITABLE END.
Martial law was declared throughout Cape Colony on October 9. The following day
Gen. Sir Redvers Buller admitted in a speech that he advised the surrender .of Ladysmith
and was severely criticised for his utterances. Commander Scheeper was captured October
12, and Captain Bellew and four others were killed in a fight October 16 at Twenty-four
Streams. On November 1. in a heavy Boer attack on Colonel Benson's column near Brak-
enlaagte, the British lost 25 officers and 214 men in killed and wounded. During the next
sixty days numerous small skirmishes were reported, but the year closed with all signs
pointing to the early conclusions of peace.
During the first three months of 1002 the war was more or less of a desultory char-
acter, negotiations for peace between the Boer leaders and the British Government begin-
ning on March 23, the latest notable Boer accomplishment having been the capture of
General Methuen and 200 men, 41 British being killed, on March 11. On March 23 Acting
President Schalk-Burger, Mr. Reitz, former Secretary of State of the South African Repub-
lic, and Commandant Lucas Meyer applied to Lord Kitchener at Pretoria for a safe con-
duct to the Orange River Colony with the view of discussing terms of peace with the
Boer generals in the field. On April 9 Mr. Steyn and Generals Delarey and DeWet entered
Klerksdorp with a flag of truce and met Mr. Schalk-Burger and his party, and Gen. Louis
Botha, Commander-in-Chief of the Boer forces. These leaders, in conference, determined
to submit to the burghers in the field the question of a cessation of hostilities, and by
92 A Quarter- Century Record of Events.
this method learned that the fighting Boers were for peace. Formal negotiations were
opened with the British Government through Lord Kitchener. On June 2, in the House of
Commons, was announced by First Lord of the Treasury A. J. Balfour, the following
British terms of peace:
The burgher forces in the field to forthwith surrender all their arms and ammunition
of war, desist from further resistance, and acknowledge King Edward VII. as their lawful
sovereign; all burghers outside the limits of the Transvaal and Orange River Colony, and
all prisoners of war who are burghers, outside of South Africa, to be brought back to their
homes, suffering no loss of personal liberty or property, as soon as transportation and
subslstance can be assured; no proceedings, civil or criminal, to be taken against sur-
rendering burghers for any acts in connection with the prosecution of the war. Great
Britain retaining the right to try by court-martial persons guilty of violating the usages
of war; the Dutch language to be taught in the public schools of the Transvaal and Orange
River Colony, where the parents desire it, and its use permitted in the courts of law for
the better and more effectual administration of justice; the use of rifles to be allowed in
the Transvaal and Orange River Colony, by license, by persons requiring their protection;
civil government in the Transvaal and Orange River Colony to succeed military adminis-
tration as soon as possible, and the establishing of representative institutions leading up
to self-government; the question of granting franchise to the natives to be decided after
the granting of self-government; no special tax to be imposed on landed property in the
Transvaal or Orange River Colony to defray the expense of the war; the assisting, by the
British Government, in the restoration of the people to their homes and resumption of
their normal occupations by a British loan of £3,000,000 ($15,000,000) free of interest for
two years, and afterward repayable over a period of years, with 3 per cent, interest, such
loans to be made through a commission, in which each district of the Transvaal and
Orange River Colony shall be represented; the British Government to indemnify holders
of the South African Republic's notes of 1900, considering such notes as war losses.
With regard to the treatment of the Cape and Natal colonists who were in rebellion,
but who had surrendered since April 12, 1901, the British Government offered broad
Immunities, with restoration of voting privileges, reserving the right to try others, who
had held official positions in the Cape Colony Government, and who held commands in
rebel or burgher forces, for high treason, provided, that in no cases the death penalty
should be inflicted as punishment unless the rules of civilized warfare had been violated.
These arrangements, which were suggested by the Cape Government, were approved, as
submitted, by the British Government.
On May 31. 1902. Lord Kitchener announced that a peace treaty had been signed
between Great Britain and the Boers, Commandant-Gen. Louis Botha, assisted by General
Delarey and Chief Commandant DeWet, acting for the Boers. Lord Kitchener returned to
England, where he was heartily welcomed, July 12, and was decorated by the King with
the new Order of Merit. On August 16 Generals Botha, DeWet and Delarey were cordially
received in England, and the Boers were thus further mollified.

1904
The war between Russia and Japan, reviewed in a special account on pages 96-101 in
this quarter-century record of events, was the paramount event in 1904, the struggle being
eagerly watched by all nations. At the same time. Great Britain was fighting an inter-
esting warfare in Thibet. Germany's troops were active in Southwest Africa, and the
United States sent a naval squadron to Tangier because of the kidnapping of Perdicaris.
an American citizen, by the Arabs. At home, a Presidential campaign added to the
excitement. In the political arena in the United States it was obviously a "Roosevelt
year." The Republican National Convention at Chicago, June 23, nominated Theodore
Roosevelt, of New York, for President, and Charles W. Fairbanks, of Indiana, for Vice-
Presiinent. The Democratic National Convention at St. Louis nominated Alton B. Parker,
of New York, for President on the first ballot. Judge Parker sent a telegram to the con-
vention saying that he regarded the gold standard as irrevocably established, and that
he wished the convention to understand his position before it adjourned. The convention
replied that it did not regard the gold standard as an issue in the campaign, and pro-
ceeded to complete its ticket hy nominating Henry G. Davis, of West Virginia, for Vice-
President. Roosevelt had a "walk over," receiving 2,041.035 popular votes to Parker's
1,729,800. Roosevelt's electoral vote was 3.3G to Parker's 140. Other events in the United
States were: The United gtates Supreme Cotirt decided that Porto Ricans are not aliens,

THE RUSSIAN-JAPANESE WAR.
Japan, logically alarmed at the virtual occupation of Manchuria by Russia after the
Boxer rebellion, and incensed by Russian possession of Port Arthur, grew restless and
aggressive in 1903. An extension of Russian influence to Korea was threatened, and
there were numerous indications that Japanese progress and expansion were imperilled by
Russia's policy of permanent control of Manchuria. Russia's Trans-Siberia Railroad
system had been extended to Port Arthur, and naturally Russian occupation of that strong-
hold, Japan's rich prize of its war with China, outraged Japanese national pride. Diplo-
matic protests by Japan were answered by a growl from the Russian bear, and the strain
between the two nations rapidly grew more tense. Japan was ready for the struggle, and
Russia was not, and hence Japan began the war to force Russia back. The storm broke
quickly and with fury. On Februarj' 6, 1904, Russia having made an unsatisfactory
reply to Japan's demands, the Mikado's Minister at St. Petersburgh, Count Kurino, was
summarily recalled, and on the same day Baron Rosen, the Russian Minister, was recalled
by his Government.
Forty-eight hours after the severing of diplomatic relations Japan struck her first
hard blow, attracting the fascinating attention of the civilized world by the roa,r of her
guns against the Russian naval force at Port Arthur. Admiral Togo, with the main fleet
of Japan, found the enemy unprepared when he took the Russians completely by surprise,
making the initial attack at night. The next day t-he Japanese made a second attack, the
first having been made by torpedo-boats. In the two engagements the Port Arthur squad-
.ron of the Russians was so badly damaged that it was made practically inefficient. On
the same day, February 9, a Japanese squadron with torpedo-boats forced the Russian
cruisers Varlag and Korietz out of the harbor of Chemulpo, Korea, compelled the Russian
vessels to fight, and sunk them, with more than 500 killed and wounded. Thus Japan
Immediately settled the question of naval supremacy and was ready to capture Port
Arthur, expel the Russian troops from Manchuria, incidentally seizing the railway at
Harbin, thus cutting off Vladivostok,^ Russia's important garrisoned northern port on the
Pacific Coast.
The Czar proclaimed war with Japan on February 10. and the United States, on Feb-
ruary 11, declared neutrality, Japan also having formally declared war the day previous.
Secretary Hay made proposals, which resulted In the belligerent Powers agreeing to con-
fine war operations to Manchuria and to respect other Chinese territory. Russia protested
against Japan's hostile actions in advance of a declaration of war as being "treacherous,"
but civilization in general seemingly supported Japan's conduct.
On February 18 the Japanese army begrun Its move into Korea, occupying Ping Yang
A Quarter- Century Hecord of Events. 97
on February 28 without opposition, and when warm weather came the Japanese First
Army, under General Kuroki, was at the Yalu River, which separates Korea from Man-
churia, and was ready for operations on a gigantic scale. General Kuropatkin, who had
been appointed on Feoruary 23 to command the Russian armies In the East, had only
100,000 men with which to check a Japanese advance from Korea, and three Russian
troops were being used to guard the railway, Russia's only method of military communi-
cation. His only hope was to retard a Japanese forward movement until he could be rein-
forced. His position was extremely trying, transportation methods being entirely Inadequate.
Even water for the wood-burning locomotives of the single-track railway was carried
several miles along some divisions.
At the beginning of the war Vice- Admiral Alexeieff commanded the Russian naval
forces in the East, but his evident lack of administrative ability led to his being sup-
planted by Vice-Ad^niral Makaroff on the day that Kuropatkin was assigned to command
the army. AJexeieff's only offensive move had been a sortie of the Vladivostok squadron,
which sunk some Japanese transports off the west coast of Japan. Alexeieff then moved
his headquarters from Port Arthur to Harbin, and his downfall speedily followed, his
request to be relieved of his duties being speedily granted.
On April 13 the Russian battle-ship Petropavlovsk was sunk by a Japanese torpedo
near Port Arthur, Admiral Makaroff and 600 men being drowned. On May 1 the Rus-
sians were driven from their position at Klu-lien-cheng by the Japanese under General
Kuroki, and later were driven back still further. On May 7 the Japanese captured
Fengwang-cneng, the Russians retreating without giving battle. On May 26, after a battle
lasting sixteen hours, the Japanese captured Kinchow and Nanshan Hill by storm. Previous
to this The Japanese had bombarded Vladivostok, and had made desperate attempts to
"bottle" the Russian fleet in Port Arthur harbor by sinking merchant vessels. The Japa-
nese had also guaranteed the independence of Korea, had assumed a protectorate over
that country, and received in return the assistance of the Korean army. The landing of
Japanese troops in the rear of Port Arthur was begun May 5, and the siege of Port Arthur
was begun fhe next day. A Cossack attack upon Anju was repulsed May 10. The Rus-
sians destroyed the town and port of Dalny May 11, and torpedoed a Japanese cruiser off
Port Arthur; two more Japanese warships were destroyed at Port Arthur, one by a mine
and the other by collision, on May 17. The Russians almost entirely evacuated New-
chwang May 15. They defeated the Japanese north of Fengwang-cheng and before Kin-
chow, May 18. On May 28 the Japanese defeated 2,000 Cossacks and occupied Ai-pien-men.
At the end of May the Second Japanese Army, under General Oku, had cut off Port
Arthur's communication with General Kuropatkin and rnade itself master of the neck of
the Liao-tung Peninsular. The Third Jananese Ar-my, under General Nodzu, moved up
from Takushan to Siuyen, In touch with Kuroki, by June 8. During May Kuropatkin had
strengthened General Stoessel In Port Arthur by 25,000 reinforcements, and General Kassu-
litch's troops had been ordered along the Talu River. Kuroki, however, had outgeneralled
Kassulitch, crossed the river with three divisions, and repulsed an attack which Kassulitch
made without orders at the Aiko River, costing the Russians 2,600 killed and wounded,
600 prisoners, 21 field pieces, 1,000 rifles, and 350,000 rounds of ammunition, a blow
which was keenly felt. The Japanese losses were 1,000 men The Japanese Third Army
operated from May 23 to May 28 against Stoessel's attempt to restore the line of communi-
cation between Mukden and Port Arthur, and finally earned a hard-won victory at Nan-
shan, displaying reckless courage, and losing 4.300 killed and wounded. The Russians,
however, were driven from commanding positions, and, under General Fock, retreated
southward, leaving 600 dead and 50 gxms behind them.
THE ADVANCE OF THE JAPANESE.
In June the Russians concentrated a large force at and near Telissu, on the line of the
railroad to Port Arthur, General Stakelberg commanding, apparently Intending to move to
Port Arthur's relief. General Oku, with 50,000 men, fell upon this force near Port Adams
on June 14, catching the Russians In ambush and causing them a loss of 4.300, the Japa-
nese losing 1,163. The Russians fell back upon Kaiplng. from which position they were
driven on July 9. On June 27 General Nedzu effected a junction with General Kuroki.
98 A Quarter Century Record of Eve'ntsl
flanked the Russians, and advanced to Sunachen. after two days' fighting. Kiiroki pushed
toward Motlen Pass, along the valley of the Patao River, and gained important positions
at Hancnen and Sidogult.
The first stage of the Japanese advance was completed by the operations of May and
June, as just recounted. Four Japanese armies had been landed. Kuroki, having gained
the mountain passes into the Manchurlan plains, was advancing toward Llaoyang. Oku was
beyond the Fenshuiling Pass, on the road to Haicheng. Nogi had begun to drive Stoessel
back into Port Arthur. At this stage Field Marshal Oyama was given supreme command
of the Japanese operations, which had heretofore been controlled by the general staff.
The Russians now realized the imminent clanger of a division of their forces should
the enemy move forward to seize the railroad between Liaoyang and Mukden. Kuropatkin
therefore ordered General Keller, with 20,000 men and 24 guns, to attack the Japanese at
Fenshuiling, which Keller did unsuccessfully on July 17, losing 1,200 men, and then retir-
ing to a strong position in the Yantze Pass. On July 23 Oku attacked General Zarubaieffs
position before Tashihchiao, compelling the Russians to abandon that place and Yinkow,
thus depriving Russia of Us last base on the Chinese sea coast, and cutting off Russian
supplies by the Peking Railroad. On July 31, after a two hours' fight with Kuroki at
Yantze Pass and Tushulln, In which Lieut. -Gen. Count Keller, of the Russian army, was
killed, the Russians retired toward Liaoyang. At the same time Oku and Nodzu, by a
combined attack on the Russian right fifteen miles below Haicheng, turned their enemy
northward, forcing the abandonment of Haicheng "by the Russians on August 2. The Japa-
nese, with a loss of 2,400 men, in a few days had now driven their enemy from the
mountains into the Manchu plains, and had compelled a concentration of the Russians
along the railroad to Liaoyang, with a Russian front of twenty-five miles between Anping
and the railroad at Anshanchan. "Rains then prevented further fighting during August.
Earlier In the month the Japanese stormed the fortifications of Port Arthur and were
repulsed. On August 17 General Stoessel refused a Japanese demand for the sui-render of
Port Arthur. On August 21 the Japanese began to take the inner forts around Port Arthur,
and on August 31 they failed in a second general assault upon the city. On August 10
part of the Russian squadron escaped from Port Arthur, but was dispersed in battle, and
on August 14 the Russian Vladivostols squadron was defeated off Tsu Islands, Korean
Straits.
The great Japanese attack on the Russians before Liaoyang was renewed on August 26.
The Russian strength was about 148,000 men, with 400 guns guarding the three roads
centring upon Liaoyang, and extending in a twelve-mile semi-circle among the low hills.
The Japanese Had 200,000 men, with 520 guns. Kuroki's First Army was on the right,
Nodzu's In the centre, and Oku's on the left. There was a general advance by the Japa-
nese, soon rorcing a Russian retreat, with small losses, Kuropattln evacuating Liaoyang
on September 3 and falling back upon Mukden. After this notable conflict heavy rains
delayed large operations until October 1. On September 4 General Stakelberg's command
eluded the Japanese and rejoined Kuropatkin's army, but the Japanese had practically
surrounded Kuropatkin's forces My September 5. A Russian sortie at Port Arthur was
repulsed September 18, and the Japanese were repulsed at Da Pass, near Mukden, Sep-
tember 20. Two days later the Japanese carried this pass by storm, and on September 24
they captured the rorts commanding the water supply at Port Arthur.
On October 3 Kuropatkin, with 300,000 men and with a force of artillery superior to
Oyama's, advanced on the Japanese, Inspiring his troops with a proclamation that Rus.sia
was now prepared to drive the enemy back. For a week the armies struggled along the
Sha River in one of the greatest battles of modern history, fighting day and night. The
most important Russian achievement was the capture of Lone Tree Hill, a commanding
Japanese position, after repeated charges and heavy losses. This hill was finally carried
by a force under Colonel Putiloff in so brilliant a manner that the Russians, in official
orders, named it Putiloff Hill. All the Japanese attempts to retake the eminence failed.
In the general engagement, which was indecisive, except that it checked the Japanese
advance, the losses were about even on either side, being estimated at 45.000 In each army.

Active operations about Port Arthur. lio\Yevor. were continued. On November 4 the

important underground chambers. On Novemtier 26 a Japanese attack upon Port Arthur
was repulsed with enormous loss to the assailants, but on November 30 they captured the
important position of 20r^-Metre Hill, commanding the city and Tiarpor. From this point,
on December tJ, they shelled the Russian fleet, sinking the turret-ship Poltava and the
battle-ship Peresviet, besides damaging other vessels.
THE FALL OF PORT ARTHUR.
After the occupation of 20.3-Metre Hill by the Japanese the doom of Port Arthur was
evident. The siege guns* there prevented a final sortie of the fleet, and the city's condi-
tion was most distressing. General Stoessel's last dl.spatches to St. Peters'ourgh were sent
out by the torpedo-boat Rastoropny on November ir>. but her commander destroyed her In
Chefoo harbor to prevent his messages from falling into the hands of the Japanese. Hence
the world has never learned the contents of these dispatches. Subseciuent disclosures,
however, and Japanese praise of General Stoessei within the past year, when his Govern-
ment accused him of cowardice in surrendering his stronghold, indicate that he fulfilled his
promise to defend Port Arthur to the last extremity. The capitulation of the city took
place on January 2, 190r>, after more than six montlis' resistance. General Stoessei receiving
the full honors of war, the Emperor of Japan having ordered General Nogl to snow General
Stoessei every courtesy. Stoessei and four other general officers had been seriously
wounded, and two had been killed, out or ten. Parole, wltli permission to retain side arms
and return to Russia, was offered to all Russian officers. General Fodc and many others
refused to accept this and went to Japan as prisoners. Authentic figures place the total of
Port Arthur casualties at 15.448 Russians, being 34.33 per cent, of the force engaged, and
45,156 Japanese, 42.6 per cent, of the force engaged.
The surrender of Port Arthur was still exciting the world, when Kuropatkin, on Jan-
uary 25, ordered a general attack on the Japanese left flank. Tioplng to break through or
turn the enemy's left toward Llaoyang. The Russian Second Army, under General Grip-
enberg, fought desperately for six days and was repulsed with heavy losses. Gripenberg
then quarreled with Kuropatkin and resigned, being succeeded by General Kaulbars.
Nogi's army from Port Arthur hastened to join Marshal Oyama, and from February 20 to
March 15 a series of engagements, known as the battle of Mukden, one of the greatest
in modern history, occurred. The Russian line extended over a semi-circle more than 120
miles long, with centre resting on the Sha River. General Kaulbars commanded the right
and General Linievitch the left. Oyama's four armies faced this huge battle line. The
Russians were finally forced into demoralized retreat, falling back to Tie Pass, an import-
ant position forty miles north of MuKden and 300 miles soutb of Harbin. The Japanese
occupied Mukden on March 10, and Tie Pass fell into Oyama's hands on March 16, the
Russians rallying 108 miles oeyond that point. General Linievitch then superseded Kuro-
patkin in supreme command of a realigned army. The Russians had lost 100.000 of their
400,000 men in tlie Mukden operations, and the Japanese casualties were out 60,000 out
of 500,000 men engaged.
^ RUSSIA'S NAVAL FORCE LOST.
Two months later came the crushing blow to Russia's navy, in the Sea of Japan,
winning everlasting lame for Admiral Togo. The Russian Baltic fleet, under Admiral
Rojestvensky. joined oy a squadron under Admiral Kebogatoff. was attacked by Togo off
Tsu Island, In the ea.stern cbannel of Korea Strait, on May 27. Togo not even navlng
informed nis tJovernment ot his plans. Rojestvensky made the disastrous error of putting
his cruisers between his battle-ships and bis enemy. Togo' signalled to his ships: "The
de.=?tiny ot our Empire depend, upon this action. You are all expected to do your utmost."
'J'he battle raged rnrougri •C\q afternoon of May 27 and all day on May 28, and resulted
in the anmhilailon ot tlie Ku.ssian Ileet. Only three vessels of the line escaped— the Cleg,

Aurora and Zhemchug. These, under Admiral Enquist, sailed to Manila, where they were
Interned, after a refusal by President Roosevelt to permit them to make repairs. Admiral
Rojestvensky was seriously wounded and captured, and Admiral Nebogatoff surrendered
with the battle-ships Orel and Emperor Nicholas I,, the coast defence ships Admiral
Seniavin and General Apraxine, and the destroyer Bedore. The Russian ships sunk
included six battle-ships, three armored cruisers, three protected cruisers, a coast defence
ship, the repair ship Kamtchatka, and several destroyers. The Japanese lost only three
torpedo-boats and had less than 1,000 casualties.
HOW THE WAR ENDED.
After Togo's victory the United States, through President Roosevelt, intervened to
end the war. The President, on June 8, addressed the Russian and Japanese govern-
ments, urging immediate and direct peace negotiations between the belligerents and prof-
fering his friendly assistance. Both the warring nations accepted the offer, and agreed,
on June 12, to appoint plenipotentiaries to discuss the terms of peace. Russia named
Sergius Witte and Baron Rosen, while Japan chose Baron Komura and Mr. Takahira as
her envoys. Baron Rosen and Mr. Takahira were then Ambassadors of their respective
countries at Washington. Escorted with much ceremony to Oyster Bay, the President's
Summer home, on separate vessels, the envoys were introduced to each other by Presi>dent
Roosevelt, on the President's yacht Mayflower, on August 5, 1905. At luncheon the
President gave this memorable toast:
"I drink to the welfare and prosperity of the sovereigns and the peoples of the two
great nations, whose representatives have met one another on this ship. It is my most
earnest hope and prayer, in the interest not only of these two great Powers, but of all
civilized mankind, that a just and lasting peace may speedily be concluded between them."
The envoys and their suites were then conveyed to Portsmouth, N. H., and the first
peace conference was held at the United States Navy-Yard there on August 9, through
interpreters, the Russians used the French and Russian language, and the Japanese used
Japanese and English. The Japanese terms, including heavy indemnity, were presented,
and were rejected by the Russians. Accord was finally reached, proposal by proposal, as
follows:
No war indemnity to be paid by Russia— a victory for Witte, who had declared "not
one kopeck for indemnity"; recognition of Japan's preponderant influence in Korea;
evacuation of Manchuria by Russians and Japanese; Japan to take over Russia's lease-
hold of Port Arthur and the Liaotung Peninsula; return of the civic administration of
Manchuria to China; Japan to hold all military works at Port Arthur and Dalny; Japan
to control the Chinese Eastern Railroad south from Kunshien, which is ten miles south
of Harbin, Russia retaining all the rest, includinp: its lines to Vladivostok and the spur
to Karln. There was a deadlock on three Japanese proposals: Reimbursement of Japan
for the cost of war; the delivery to Japan of interned warships in Chinese and American
ports, and the restriction of Russian naval power in Asiatic waters. President Roosevelt
again intervened, consulting with Baron Rosen and with Baron Kaneko, the latter a
trusted, though unofficial, friend of the Emperor of Japan. The President then com-
municated with both Emperors, and Imperial Councils were held at Tokio and St. Peters-
burgh. As a final result, the Mikado ordered the Japanese envoys to waive indemnity
claims, allow Russia to retain her interned ships, and agree to a division of the Island
of Sakhelin, Japan holding the southern half below the fiftieth parallel. The treaty stip-
ulated that Sakhelin should not be fortified, and that each country should enjoy the
"most favored nation" terms. The treaty was signed on September 5, 1905, at Ports-
mouth Navy- Yard (which is really situated in the town of Kittery, Me.), and is known
as the Treaty of Portsmouth. In Japan its terms were unsatisfactory to the people, who
felt that Japan should have received more for her sacrifices. In Russia, 1905 was a year
of revolution and anarchy, and since then disorders of all sorts, entailing the loss of
thousands of lives, have followed in quick succession.
Semi-official estimates credit Japan with having had In the field during the war

1,200,000 troops, of which number 55,000 were killed, 15,000 died from sickness, and
300,000 were wounded. General Kuropatkin admitted that on October 2, 1905, the Russian
strengrth available in the East was 1,037,000 men, of which 870,000 were in the field. The
Russian losses during the war are estimated at 352,412, the actual field casualties being:
Killed, 23,008; wounded, 121,486; missing, 39,729.
1905
Although, through the efforts of President Roosevelt, Russia and Japan agreed to a
peace parley in June, 1905, the first five months of the year were marked by bloody battles,
following the capitulation of Port Arthur to the Japs on January 2. Among all, but the
two warring nations, calm prevailed, and the year in the United States was an exceptionally
quiet one. On January 28 Santo Domingo agreed that the United States should preserve
order and assume charge of finances in the Dominican Republic, while guaranteeing terri-
torial integrity. In pursuance with this agreement United States Minister Dawson arranged

The events of 1907, chronologically arranged, will be found on other pages of this Issue
of THE WORLD ALMANAC under the title, "Record of Events in 1907."
As is obvious, no attempt has been made to do more in the foregoing quarter-century
review than to note in chronological order the dates of the most important happenings.
Because of lack of space, the necrology of the years referred to has also been ignored,
although death struck at many a shining mark. From year to year, however, THE WORLD
ALMANAC has printed a record of the deaths of eminent people, and has also referred,
by a special index, to valuable papers, reports and articles published in THE WORLD
ALMANAC for preceding years. The student, therefore, who will use the "Quarter-Century
Record" of THE WORLD ALMANAC as a guide to exhaustive study will find it exceed-
ingly helpful, and will be led into many paths of learning— just as a reading of THE
WORLD from day to day insures a liberal education. None of the events chronicled has
escaped the attention of THE WORLD, and from THE WORLD'S columns the review has
been made. Elsewhere in THE WORLD ALMANAC for 1908 will be found the remarkable
story of the important part THE WORLD has played in national and international affairs,
even to the shaping of destinies of universal interest since 1883. No other paper has been
as prominent in history or received such widespread recognition by the rulers of the earth
for the last two and a half decades, and it is inseparably connected with great occurrences,
with progress and with publicity. Hence, the "Quarter-Century Record of Events," and
THE WORLD'S own story, "Pei-formance Is Better Than Promise," printed elsewhere in
this issue of THE WORLD ALMANAC, should be read in conjunction.
It has likewise been impossible to include in the preceding quarter-century epitome
many dates of interesting doings in the field of sports, the drama, music, the sciences,
art, medicine, literature, and other avenues of thought and action. It would require the
entire space of THE WORLD ALMANAC to even mention these. Annually, however,
THE ALMANAC gives them proper place in its review of noteworthy incidents that have
contributed to make the great total of mundane happenings worth recording. Thus, the
purchaser of THE WORLD ALMANAC of 1908 who preserves this volume, and who, In
future, supplements it by adding the yearly issues, will always have, in the most compact
form ever published, an accurate, comprehensive and valuable history collaborated by th©
highest authorities.

106 The Ecclesiastical Calendar.
W^t Scclrsfastical i^alentrai*.
(Prepared for The Woki.d Almanac by Dr. J. Morrison. )
This form of Calendar is not emploj'ed for computing time in general, but for determining the date
of certain movable Festivals in the Christian Church. It was first promulgated by the Council oJ Nice
A. D. 325 and subsequently reformed in 1582. The mathematical discussion of it presents -^reat
difficulties by reason of its being Luni-Solar. It requires us to reconcile three periods of time, viz. :
the week, the lunar month and the solar year, which are prime to each other or have no common
measureand, therefore,canbedone onl v approximately by corrections which vary from time to time.
The following formulae whose discussion is far too abstruse for insertion here, will enable us
to determine the date of East«r on which all the other movable Festivals depend, as well as all the
other quantities thateuter into the computation of ecclesiastical dates.
Let ^=. the true epact of any given year.
J's.the Julian epact, supposing that the Julian year to still exist.
iV=»the (iolden Number or Lunar Cycle.
cS— a correction due to the Solar year.
3/«= a correction due to the Lunar month.
F«= any given year.
Now J'is determined by the fact that in 1582, the first year of. the reformed Calendar, ^V was 6
and J 26.
Therefore for the following years JV and J were
1583, ;\= 7, J^= 26+11-30=. 7
1584, ^V= 8, J"— 7+11 =18
1585, A= 9, J'-lS+ll =29
1586, ^'=10, J =.29+1 1-30- 10
1587, iV=ll, J =10+11 -21
&C. &C. &CJU
or since the remainder oniy is
(1)
Therefore in general we have / ';6 + 11 (JV— 6) \
j^ V~ 30 /
(11 iV- 40 \
30 / r,
wanted, the above becomes / y j^ 10 (JV — 1) N
^ °^ V 30 / '
where the subscript r signifies the remainder after dividing by 30.
8ince 1600 was a leap year, and 1700, 1800 and 1900 common years, J" must be diminished by
unity every centesimal year, the first correction was in 1700, the second in 1800, etc., hence if we
denote by c the number of the century, the corrections for the Solar year will be
.S- (c-16) + /'-^^^i^'\ (2)
\ 4. J w
the subscript ?«' signifying that the whole number only is wanted.
For the lunar correction we find / ^ _ i.«^ \
•"-(^-F^>» • *'*
We also have .V= ^-^ "^ ^ ^ (4)
V 19 )r
Then for tlie epact w^e shall have ^ = J + -9 + -i/.
Let Z-> number of the Dominical letter of the year.
I •=» number of the letter belonging to the day on which the 15th of the Moon falls,
P— the number of days from 21st March to the 15lh of the Paschal Moon which is the first
day on which Easter can fall.
p — number of days from 21st of March to Easter.
Then I, - 7 ?H + 6- Y ~ ( —\ + c-16.
\ 4. ) w
.(6)
Where m must be taken such as will make L a positive whole number. Tliis determines the
Dominical letter.
Since Easter is the Sunday following the 14th of tlie Moon we shall find
p^P + (2/-0 (7)
Now Pcan never be less than 1, nor / less than 4, and in both cases A' —23, but when E is greater
than 23 we must add 30 in order that /^and I may have positive values in the formulse.
P = 24-jB and I => 27— iJ
There can then be two cases, viz. :
and when K greater than 23, P = b4 — K and I = ( — '- I
\ 7 / r
then p becomes known from (7) and
Easter = Marcli 21 + p.
if however (L — I) become zero or negative, 7 or a luuliiple of it must be added in order to make
(L — I ) K positive whole number.
Ex. —Find tlie (Joldea Number, Epact. date of Easter, etc., rt)r 1909.
Here we have c =- 19 and Y — 1909.

JBi\}inionu of ^tme.
The int^i'val between two consecutive transits of a fixed star over any meridian or the interval
dnring which theearth makes one absolute revolution on its axis is called a Sidereal iJay, and is invari-
able, while the interval between two consecutive transits of the .Sun over any meridian is called an
Apparent Solar Day, and its length varies from da}' to day bj' reason of the variable motion of the
earth in its orbit, and the inclination of this orWt to the equator on which time is measured.
A 3Iean Solar Day is the average or mean of aM the apparent solar days in a year. Mean Solar
Tfrn^ is that shown by'a well-regulated clock or watch, whW^ Appaven I Solar Time is that shown by a
well-constructed sun-dial; the difference between the two at anytime is the Eqnationof Time, and
may amount to 16 minutes ant 21 seconds. 'I'he Astronomical Day begins at noon and the Civil fJay
at the preceding midnight. The Sidereal au<l Mean Solar Days are both invariable, but one day of the
latter is equal to 1 day, 3 minutes, and 56. 555 seconds of the former.
The interval during which the eartn mases one absolute revolution round the Sun is called a Side-
real Year, and consists of 365 days. 6 hours. 9 minutes, and 9.6 seconds, which is invariable.
The Tropical Year is the interval between two consecutive returns of the Sim to the Vernal
Kquinox. If this svere a fixed point, the Sidei'eal and Tropical Years would be identical ; but in con.se-
quenceof the disturbing influence of the Moon and planets on the spheroidal figure of theearth, the
Kquinox has a slow, retrograde mean motion of 50". 26 annually, so that the Sim returns to the Equi-
nox sooner every year than he otherwise would by 20 minutes 23. 6 seconds; the Tropical Y'ear, there-
fore, consists of 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 46 seconds. The Tropical Year is not of uniform
length ; it is now slowly decreasing at the rate of . 695 second per century, but this variation will not
always continue.
Julius C;es5vr, in 'B.C. 45, was the first to reform the calendar by ordering that ever.v year whose
date ninnber is exactly divisible b.v 4 contain 366 days, and all other years 365 days. The intercalarj'
day was introduced by counting the sixth day before the Kalends of March twice; hence the name
bissextile, from bis, twice, and sex, six. He also changed the beginningof the year from 1st of March
to the 1st of .January, and also changed the name of the fifth month (Quintilis) to July, after himself.
The average length of the Julian ye^r is therefore 365^ days, which, however, is too long by 11
minutesand 14 seconds, and this would accumulate in 400 years to about three days. The Julian
Calendar continued in use until a. v>. l.")82, when the date of the beginning of th^ sea.s6us occurred 10
dayslat«r than in b. c. 4."), when this mode of reckoning time was introduced.
The (Tregorian Calendar was introduced by Pope Gregory XTII.' with the view of keeping the Equi-
nox to the same day of the month. It consists of 36.") days, but every year exactly divisible by 4 and
the ceuturial years which are exactly divisible by 400 contain 366 days; and if in addition to this
arbitrary arrapgeineut the ceuturial years exactly divisible by 4,000 contain 366 days, the error in the
Gregorian system will amount to onlj^ one day in about 20 centuries. If, however. 31 leap years
were intercalated in 128 years, instead of 32 as at present, the calendar would be practically exact
and the error would not amount to more than a day in 100,000 years. The length of the mean
Gregorian Year may therefore be set down at 365 days!^ 5 hours. 49 minutes, 12 seconds. The Gregor-
ian Calendar wi^ introduced into England and her colonies in 1752. at which time the Equinox had
retrograded 11 days since the Council of Xice in a. d. 325, when the festival of Easter was established
and the Equinox occurred on March 21: hence September 3. 1752. was called September 14. and
at the same time the commencement of the legal year was changred from March 25 to January 1. so
that the year 1751 lost the months of .Tanuary and February and the first 24 days of March. The dif-
ference between the Julian and Gregorian Calendars is now 13 days. Russia and the Greek Church
still employ the Julian Calendar for civil and ecclesiastical purposes.
pRrMARtLY. for the convenience of the railroai^s. a standard of time was established by mutual
agreement in 1883, by which trains are nni and local time regulated. According to this system, the
United States, extending from 65o to 12.}0 west longitude, is divided into four time sections, each of
350 of longitude, exactly equivalent to one hour, commencing with the 75th meridian. The first
(eastern) section includes all territorv between the Atlantic Coast and an irregular line drawn from
Detroit to Charleston. S. C. , the latter being its most southern point. The second (central) section
includes all the territory between the last-named line and an irregular line from Bismarck. N. D.. to
the mouth of the Rio Grande. The third Cmountain . section includes all territorv bet%veen the last-
named line and nearly the western borders of Idaho, TTtah. and Arizona, The fourth (Pacific) sec-
tion covers the rest of the country to the Pacific Coast. Standard time is uniform inside each of these
sections, and the time of each section differs from that next to it by exactly one hour. Thus at 12
noon in New York City (eastern time), the time at Chicago (central time) is 11 o'clock a.m.; at
Denver (mountain time), 10 o'clock a.m.. and at San Francisco (Pacific time), 9 o'clock a.m.
Standard time is 16 minutes slower at Boston than true local time. 4 minutes slower at New York, 8
minutes faster at Washinsrton. 19 minutes faster at Charleston, 28 minutes slower at Detroit, 18
minutes faster at Kansas Cttv, 10 minutes slower at Chicaeo. 1 minute faster at St Louis, 28 mimitea
faster at Salt Dake CTtv, and 10 minutes faster at San Francisco.

The above table applies to ordiuary years only. For leap year, cue day must be added to each
number of days after February 28.
EX.4MPLK. —To find the number of days between June 3, 1900, and February 16, 1901 : The fig-
uresopposite the third day ia the first June column are 154; those opposite the sixteenth day in the
second February column are 412. Subtract the first from the second product— i. e. , 164 from 412, and
the result is 258, the number of days between the two dates.

The weight of a cubic foot of distilled wat«r at a temperature of 60° F. is 1,000 ounces Avoir-
dupois, w?-i/?i€07%, therefore the weight (in ounces. Avoirdupois) of a cubic foot of an.v of the sub-
stances in the above table is found by multiplj-ing the specific gravities by 10, thus;— one cubic foot
of oak weighs 1,170 ounces; one cubic foot of marole 2,700 ounces, and soon.

In September, 1 /93, the conveution decreed that the common era should be abolished in all civil affairs, and that the new
French era should begin on September 22, 1792, the day of the true autumnal equinox, and that each succeeding year should
begin at the midnight of the day on which the true autumnal equinox falls. The year was divided into twelve months of
thirty days each. In ordinary years there were five extra days, from the 17th to the 2l8t of our September, and at the end of
every fourth year was a sixth complimentary day. This reckoning was first used on November 22, 1793, and was continued
until December 31, 1805, when it was discontinued, and the Gregorian calendar, used throughout the rest of Europe, was re-
sumed. The following were the dates for the year 1804, the last complete year of this style of reckoning:

tember: Primidi, dedicated to Virtue; Duodi, to (Jenius; Tridi, to Labor ; tjuartidi, to (Opinion, and ijnintidi, to Rewards.
To Leap Year, called Olympic, a sixth day, September 22 or 23, Sextidi, *' the day of the Revolution," was added.

The number of asteroids discovered up to present date is about 465. A number of tliese small
planets have not been observed since their discovery, and are practically lost. Consequently it
IS now sometimes a matter of doubt, until the elements have been computed, whether the supposed
new planet is really new, or only am old one rediscovered.
<B\ix ploon.
Of all the secondary planets the earth's satellite is by far the most interesting and important.
The moon completes her circuit around the earth in a period whose mean or average length is 27
tiouless in space the moon's orbit would be nearly an ellipse, having the earth in one of the foci;
hence her distance from the earth varies during the course of a lunar month. Her mean distance
from the earth is 238, 850 miles. Iler ma.vimum distance, however, may reach 262,830 miles, and
the least distance to which she can approach the earth is 221.520 miles. Her diameter is 2. 162
miles, and if we deduct from her distance from the earth the sum of the two radii of the earth and
moon, viz., 3,962 and 1,081 miles respectively, we shall have for the nearest approach of the sur-
faces of the two bodies 216, 477 miles. Her orbit is a very intricate one, because the earth in moving
around the sun carries the moon along with it; hence the latter is sometimes within and sometimes
without the earth's orbit. Its form is that of a serpentine curve, always cr»icave toward the sun,
and inclined to the plane of the earth's orbit at an angle of 5° 9'. in consequence of which our satel-
lite appears sometimes above and sometimes below the plane of the earth's orbit, through which
she passes twice in a revolution. These points or positions are called nodes, and no two consecutive
nodes occupy positions diametrically opposite on the lunar orbit. The nodes have a retrograde
motion, which causes them to make an entire revolution in 18 years 218 days 21 hours 22 minutes
and 46 seconds. This motion was well known to the ancients, who called it the Saros, and was
made use of by them in roughly predicting eclipses.
The moon always presents the same face to us, as is evident from the permanency of the various
markings on its surface. This circumstance proves that with respect to the earth she revolves on an
axis, and the time of rotation is exactly equal to the time of revolution around the earth, viz.,
27.32166 days. The moon's axis is not perpendicular to the plane of her orbit, but deviates there-
from by an angle of about 6o 41'. In consequence of this fact, and of the inclination of the lunar
orbit to that of the ecliptic, the poles of the moon lean alternately to and from the earth. When
the north pole leans toward the earth we see .somewhat more of the region surrounding It, and
somewhat less when it leans the contrari' way. This displacement is known by the name of llbra-
tion in latitude.
The moon's motion on her axis is uniform, but her angular velocity in her orbit Is subject to
slight variations by reason of the form of her orbit; hence it happens that we sometimes see a little
more of the eastern or western edge at one time than at another. This phenomenon is known as
libratlon in longitude.
The moon's surface contains about 14,685,000 square miles, or nearly four times the area of
Knrope, Her volume is 1-49 and her mass 1-81 that of the earth, and hence her density is about
3-6 that of the earth, or about 3 2-5 that of water. At the lunar surface gravity is only 3-20 of what
it is at the earth, and therefore a body which weighs 20 pounds here would weigh only 3 pounds there.
The centre of gravity of the earth and moon, or the point about which they both actually revolve
in their course around the sun, lies ivit/ii)i the earth; it is 1,063 miles below the surface.
The attractive force of the moon acting on the water of our oceans is mainly instrumental in
raising them into protuberances or tides in such amamier as to give the total mass a spheroidal figure
whose principal axis would continually coincide with the line joining the centres of the earth and
moon, but in consequence of the resist'ance whicli this movement of the water encountei-s from con-
tinents and islands, a.s well as from the liquid molecules themselves, the tidal wave can never arrive
at any plaee until about one hour after the moon has crossed the meridian of the place-.
The moon has no atmosphere and no water. The suddenness with which stars are occulted by
the moon is regarded as a conclusive proof that a lunar atmosphere does not exist, and the spectro-
scope furnishes negative evidence of the same character.
In remote ages the lunar surface was the theatre of violent volcanic action, being elevated Into
cones and ridges exceeding 20,000 feet high, and at other places rent into furrows or depre.ssions of
corresponding depth. The lunar volcanoes are now extinct. A profound silence reigns over the
desolate and rugged surface. It is a dead world, utterly unfit to support animal or vegetable life.
THTJ EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE.
The earth's sen.sible atmosphere is generally supposed to extend some forty miles In height, prob-
ably farther, but becoming at only a few miles from the surface of too great a tenuity to support life.
The condition and motions of this aerial o<'ean play a most important part in the determination of
climate, modifying, by absorbing, the otherwise intense heat of the sun, and, when laden with
elotids, hindering the earth from radiating its acquired heat into .space. — ^Vhifaker.

Two lieavenly bodies are in ' ' conjunction " ( c5 ) when they have the same Right Ascension,
or are ou tlie sa/Hc meridian, i. e. , when one is due north or soitthoi the other: if the bodies are
near eacli other as seen from the earth, they will rise and set at the same time; thev are in
"opposition" (§) when in opposite quarters of the heavens, or when one rises just as the
other is setting. "Quadrature" {n^ is halfway between conjunction and opiDosition. By
"greatest elongation" is meant the greatest apparent angular distance from the sun: the
planet is then generally most favorably situated for observation. Mercurv can only be seen
with the naked eye at this time. When a planet is in its "ascending" (Q)'or "descending"
(y) node it is crossing the plane of the earth' s orbit. The term "Perihelion" means nearest,
and ' 'Aphelion " ' farthest, from the sun. An ' ' occultation " of a planet or star is an eclipse of
it by some other body, usually the moon.
I.— ECLIPSES.
In the year 1908 there will ^e three eclipses, all of the snn, and a hinar appulse.
1. A total eclipse of tlie sun Jaiuiary 3, visible as a partial one in certain portions of the Southern
Milledgeville, Ga. , and Jacksonville, Fla. Along the formerlnie the limbs of the sun and moon will
be simply in apparent contact, and along the latter the eclipse will begin at or very near sunset.
All places south of these lines will expprience a small partial eclipse. The path of the total eclipse
les wholly in the Pacific Ocean. At- Dallas, Tex. , the eclipse will begin at4 hours 5.7 miinites p. m. ,
and at New Orleans the eclipse will begin at 4 hours 30. 2 minutes p. m., local meayi time, the sua
setting with the eclipse on it at both plaoes.
2. An ainiular eclipse of the sun June 28, visible in the United States, Canada. Mexico, Central
America.and the northern portion of South America. The path of the annular eclipse passes over or
very near Mexico City, Tampa, Fla. , and the Bermuda islands; it then cros.ses the Atlantic Ocean
and terminates in latitude 10° N. and longitude 1° 8' \f. in western Africa.
The duration of the entire eclipse is 6 hours 1.$ minutes, and of the annular eclipse 3 hours
50 minutes, during which latter period it traverses 128o 48'. 8 of lor.gitude.
The dates of beginning and ending of the eclipse for important places in the United States are
given in local mean time in the following table:

The position angle at beginning, given in the above table, is estimated from the north point of the
sun's limb toward the east.
3. A central eclipse of the sun December 83, invisible in North America. This eclipse will be
annular fit the beginning and end, and total in the middle.
The path of the central eclip.se cro-sses the southern part of South America, the South Atlantic,
South Africa, and the southern portion of the Indian Ocean.
4. A lunar appulse December 7.
The nearest approa h of the moon to the earth's shadow will occur December?, 4 hours 59
minutes P.M. New York jnea?i fime, and the computed least distance of the moon's limb from the
shadow is onlv 12".
The moon in such cases is only Immersed in the earth's penumbra.

From June 16 to August 1 both the upper and lower transits take place during daylight.
The azimuth at the time of greatest eastern or western elongation can be easily computed from
the formula:
where A denotes the azimuth, p the jxjlar distance, and I the latitude of the place.
. sill p
Bin A = ~-~-^,
cos I
DATE OF GREATEST ELONGATION.
» To find the time of greatest eastern or western elongation, let //denote the hour angle, and I
and 2> as before, then we shall have
cos ir=tanp tanZ.
And the hour angle in mean time is
Hm = H'>x 0.0664846.
This quantity, /fm, added to or subtracted from the time of transit given above, according
to the elongation required, will give the viean time of the greatest elongation at any place whose
north latitude is I.

To find the time of the star's transit add or subtract, according to the sign, the numbers
in the second column of figures to the date of the transit of the pole star given above. Thus,
for a Andromedae February 1. Lower Transit of Polar Star is 4 h 44 m. 51 s. am , to which add
h. 40 m. and we have 3 h. 24 m. 51 s. p. m. ; for December 1, we find 7 h. 26.56s. p. M.,etc.

The determination of stellar parallax is one of the most dilticult and refined problems in practical
or observational astronomy. It is to find the angle which the .semi-diameter of the earth's orbit
subtends at the star— an angle always very small as seen from the above table and which cannot be
mea-sured directly but by various processes too complicated to be explained here.

Wi)t cSourct antr i^amtniancc of .Solar SSntt^.
(Prepared for The World Almanac by Dr. J. Morrison.)
The solar energy is manifested in part by the radiation of heat and light on which the existence of
all animated nature depends. J'rom time immemorial the cause of the solar heat and light has been
the subject of study by astronomers and scientists in all lands, and by patient and laborious 'observa-
tions continued for centuries, by profound research and by unremitting toil, man has at last forced
nature to yield up to him these hitherto mysterious secrets. A rational explanation of the solar energy
vras not possible under the old theory of the cause of heat and light — not in fact until the promulgation
of the mechanical theory of the former and the undulatory theory of the latter — two scientific achieve-
ments of the nineteenth century, a period which will go tliuudering down the ages as the golden age of
scientific discovery and research.
In order to obtain a clear idea of the cause of heat and light it is necessary to digress a little to speak
briefly of the constitution of matter. Like time and space matter cannot be defined; we know nothing
of its intrinsic nature or essence. In a general way, we may say, matter is any substance which occupies
space, and exists in three forms, viz.: gaseous, liquid and solid, according to the temperature and
pressure. In whatever form it may exist, matter is not a continuous sabstance, that is to say, it is com-
posed of masses of infinitesimally small portions called molecules, each of which consists of two or more
Btill smaller portions called atoms. The molecules of a body, whether in the gaseous liquid or solid
state, are not in absolute contact, but separated from one another by an infinitesimally small space
which permits of a certain amount of motion.
THE ETHER.
This space is filled with that mysterious, invisible, colorless, odorless, and inconceivably rarified
substance c&Wed ether, which fills all space and holds the universe in its grasp. The molecules of a body
are never at rest, but always in motion, and this motion infinitesimal as it is, causes undulations or
waves in the ether, and these undulations manifest themselves as heat or light, or both, according to
theirintensity.
Heat and light are thus manifestations of molecular motion propagated by the ether, just like
sound, which is a manifestation of undulations or waves of tlie air. In fact, heat, light and sound are
quite similar as regards their mode of production and propagation. Now, as regards the sun, this
luminary has been radiating into space a stupendous amount of both heat and light for an inconceiv-
ably long period of time, and that, too, without any visible source of supply. Whence then is the origin
or source of this prodigious expenditure of energy? Is this radiation of heat and light to continue for-
ever? Does this dissipation of energy imply a waste of the solar substance? Does the solar globe con-
tain within itself the elements of its own decay and death ? Stupendous questions are they not ? Let
us see what answer modern science has to give to them. It is now universally accepted by astronomers
and scientists that
THE NEBULAR HYPOTHESIS
originally propounded by Swendenborg and subsequently accepted by Herschell, Kaut, Laplace and
other distinguished scholars, mathematicians and astronomers, is the true cosmogony of our solar sys-
tem. The evidence upon which this hypothesis rests is so strong that it rises almost to the dignity of
a demonstration. Without entering into all the numerous details which would render this paper far too
long for the space afforded, it must suffice here to say that the gaseous nebulae revealed in the sidereal
heavens by the telescope and spectroscope, all the structural and dynamical features of the sun and
planets, and the physical structure of the earth and moon, confirm the hypothesis in a most remarkable
manner. Indeed, it is hardly possible that so many concurrent circumstances could be the result of
chance. ».
All the evidence tends to show that the Creator evolved the solar system by means of the physical
laws of matter established by Himself, just as He developed the giant oaks of the forest from the tiny
acorns. The nebular hypothesis assumes that the matter composing the sun and planets once existed
as a vast gaseous nebula, spiral in form, having an inconceivably high temperature and slowly revolv-
ing on an axis passing through its centre of gravity. As the mass cooled by radiating heat into space,
contraction of volume with accelerated axial rotation would ensue in accordance with well-known
dynamical principles. The centrifugal force thus rapidly increased would cause the separation of
large masses, which would, by the mutual attraction of their own particles, gradually assume a
spherical figure and become planets. By a rev)etition of this process planet after planet would be
thrown off until the central glowing sun would remain.
RESULTS OF SOLAR CONTRACTION.
ASsumine then, that the sun has attained his present dimensions by the slow contraction of the
original gaseous mass, the question which now confronts us is : What amount of contraction or diminu-
tion of volume is necessary to supply the quantity of heat and light now radiated? In order to put this
in as clear a light as practicable, we will first describe an experiment whose results are quite apparent.
Let a large globe of iron, say ten feet or more in diameter, be thoroughly and uniformly heated in a
furnace until it has attained a "white heat," or is on the point of melting, during which time it will
expand until its diameter be half a foot or more. If it be then taken out and suspended in space it will
radiate heat and light in all directions, and. as it cools, it will not only contract in volume, but also
give out a light which will gradually change in color from white to dull red, after which the surface
will become dark, when heat vibrations only would be manifest.
As the cooling proceeds, the surface will contract and compress the semi-molten interior to such a
degree that it inaycrack and the soft material of the interior exude through it. The temperature of
the entire mass, with diminution of volume, will continue to decline until it attains the temperature of
surrounding objects, when it will cease ; but if it were suspended in the inter-planetary, or inter-stellar
spaces, where it could not receive any heat from external objects, the cooling and contraction of volume
would go on incessantly until the temperature reached the absolute Zero point, or, in other words, until
all molecular motion ceased. In this condition it would probably fall into dust, the power which
hitherto held the molecules together having become dissolved— a condition which may be interred from
the fact that when an iron bar is placed for some time in liquid air or oxygen it becomes as brittle as
glass, and yet the temperature of liquid nir is far above the absolute zero temperature. The condition
of the heated iron globe and the phenomena resulting therefrom are almost precisely similar to those
of the sun, which is a liuge, gaseous globe, over 866.000 miles in diameter, intensely hot, cooling ofif very
slowly by radiating heat and light in prodigious quantity in all directions, and also slowly contractiug

under its own gravity, by which a portion of its potential energy is transformed into molecular energy
manifested by heat and light.
THE THERMAL UNIT.
Heat is measured by an arbitrary unit, that is to say, the thTninl unit is the amount of heat required
to raise onepound of loatev one def/r^e Fan. in temperature. Carefully conducted experiments show that
one square yard of the earth's surface receives about twenty-five thermal units in one second when the
sun's ray s fall vertically, due a llowauce being made for atmospheric absorption which may amount to
about one-thirtieth of the whole.
From the solar parallax, viz., 8". 81 and the well-known dimensions of the earth we can easily cal-
culate the surface of a sphere having the sun's distance as a radius and hence also the amount of heat
received by it in one second or the amount radiated by the sun in that time, and this must be, approx-
imately, at least, equal to the amount generated in same interval by the contraction or shrinkage of the
solar mass. The amount of heat generated can be approximately determined by the aid of "the me-
chanical equivalent of heat" which m.ny be expressed thus: If a pound of matter (iron for instance)
falls freely through 772 feet it will strike a blow which will raise the temperatu»e of the body struck one
thermal yunWj, or if 772 pounds fall one foot it will do thesame thing. Instead, however, of a blowthus
struck, a constant and equivalent pressure will produce the same result. By the radiation of heat and
consequent contraction of volume, aided by the sun's gravity, the entire mass is gradually falling
toward the centre.
By means of all the data now at hand it can be shown mathematically by a process far too abstruse
andcomplicatedfor insertion here, that a contraction or shorteningof about 315 feet annually in the sun's
diameter, is sufficient to account for the amount of he.at and light at present radiated. This result ob-
tained from the most conservative estimate of all the factors that enter into the computation, must be
regarded as an approximation, and it may be a very rough one at that, but however much it may differ
from the actual condition of things, a contraction of the sun's volume due to gravity and the radiation
of heat, is amply sufficient to account for the source and maintenance of solar energy,
THE FUTURE OF THE UNIVERSE.
This contraction of volume due to the above causes will of course continue, and a time must come
in the far distant future — how many millions of years it is impossible to say — when the sun will cease
to radiate sufficient heat and light to maintain animal and vegetable life on the earth.
It is certain that all animal and vegetable existences on the earth had a beginning, and it is equally
certain that they will have an end. Geology speaks to us out of the rocky strata of the earth's crust,
of the extinction of numerous races of animals and plants in the remote past. There have been six
grand groups or periods of animated existences on the earth, and five of these have already passed away,
and that, too, long before the advent of man.
Many of our sedimentary rocks are the solid sarcophagi of countless millions of once living creatures.
Our statuary halls and portrait galleries are replete with the memorials of empires and kingdoms, of
dynasties and generations of men that have long since passed away. Man himself, nature's greatest
paradox, must pass off the stage of his earthly existence and leave to his successors the fruits of his
labors and researches.
Each day dies and sinks into the silent tomb of night before the next can be born. Every Summer
gradually fades away into the cold, dreary Winter before its successor can come forth. The grain of
wheat which is cast into the ground, must perish before the new grain can exist. Death thus appears to
follow life, pari.passit, throughout the entire realm of material creation. To be born, to live and to die,
appear to be the destiny of all organized bodies ; the tomb of the past is the womb of the future. So,
likewise, suns and their systems of planets must die in order that their successors may be born. There
is strong evidence of the existence of dark or dead suns in the sidereal heavens.
At the rate of contraction just stated the sun will have shrunk to about three-fourths of its present
dimensions, in four or five millions of years, and during that long interval its light will gradually change
from white, through blue, green, yellow and orange to a dull red and, finally, cast. a lurid glare over the
dying embers of the solar as'stem.
Ages before this animal and vegetable life will have become extinct, aqd on some rocky crag or
frozen knoll the last man may stand shivering in the wintry blasts, and while taking his last, long, ling-
ering look at the universal desolation produced by the appalling calamity which has overtaken the
world and overwhelmed his race, he himself will expire "unknelled, uncoffined and unknown."
"Sic transit gloria mundl."
THE RESTORATION.
Such is the logical sequence of the Nebular Hypothesis and such is the fate which awaits the sun
and the solar system in the far distant future. There are, however, agencies at work in the sidereal
heavens, by which these dead suns and systems may be restored to their original gaseous nebulae, en-
dowed with' all their pristine vigor and destined for the formation of new suns and new systems of
planets, but space will not permit their discussion now.
The solar energy will continue with little or no diminution for perhaps a million of years during
which its benign influence will be felt throughout the solar system into which it infuses life, energy and
activity.
By its genial warmth and marvellous light it clothes our hills and valleys in their glorious garb of
green, so pleasing to the eyes, and by the action of its chemical rays of light it gradually changes this
same green mantle into the golden tints of AutUTun. I^ paints the maiden's cheeks in their rosy tints
and the evening clouds in their gorgeous hues. It sets in motion the gentle zephyr that cools our heated
row on a hot Summer day, and it also arouses into activity .the hurricane and cyclone which frequently
carry death and destruction in their paths. It releases from their icy fetters the tiny streams that
trickle down the sides of snow-clad mountains to form the source of the mighty rivers that irrigate our
plainsand facilitate commerce and international communication. It distills from our oceans and lakes
enormous volumes of aqueous vapor which ascend into the atmosphere toforra clouds to temper the
solar heat, and by the condensation of these clouds to produce the copious showers of rain to purify our
atmosphere, to fertilize onr fields, to nourish the kindly fruits of the earth for our sustenance, to raise
every fainting flower and to revive all animated nature.
In remote geologic ages, a portion of the solar energy was stored away in these gigantic forests
whichultimately were transformed into beds of coal which we now exhume to warm and light our homes,
to propel our ships and locomotives, to drive our mills and facto»ies and to contribute to our comfort in
a thousand ways. In short, there is not on the surface of our plaiiet a form of energy which has not been
derived directly or indirectly from the glorious orb of day.

Note.— The above table was prepared for The World Almanac by the Geographic Branch of the
United States Geological Survey. It should be stated in connection with this table that it presents
only points whose heights are matters of record, and that in several cases in the high mountain region
of the far West and the Pacific Slope it is well known that there are higher points within the State or
Territory whose heights are not yet known with accuracy, and consequently cannot be given.
This table was revised by the United States Geological Survey to September 1, 1907.

OF THE WEATHER BUREAU, U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE.
The Weather Bureau furnishes, when practicable, for the benefit of all interests dependent upon
weather conditions, the "Forecasts" which are prepared daily at the Central Office in Washington,
1) C , and certain designated stations. These forecasts are telegraphed to stations of the Weather
Biireau. railway officials, postmasters, and naany others, to be communicated to the public by
means of flags or steam whistles. The flags adopted for this purpose are five in number, and of the
forms and colors indicated below :
EXPLANATION OF WEATHER FLAGS.
No. 1.
White Flag.
No. 2.
Blue Flag.
No. 3.
White and Blue Flag.
No. 4.
Black Triangular Flag.
No. 5.
White Flag with
black square iu
centre.
Clear or fair weather. Rain or snow. Local rain or snow. Temperature.
Cold wave.
When number 4 is placed above number 1, 2. or 3, it indicates warmer; when below,
colder; when not displayed, the temperature is expected to remain about stationary. During
the late Spring and early Fall the cold- wave flag is also used to indicate anticipated frosts.
WHISTLE SIGNALS.
A warning blast of from fifteen to twenty seconds duration is sounded to attract atten-
tion. After this warning the longer blasts (of from four to six seconds duration) refer to
weather, and shorter blasts (of from one to three seconds duration) refer to temperature; those
for weather are sounded first.
Blasts. Indicate.
One long Fair weather.
Two long Rain or snow.
Three long Local rain or snow.
Blasts. Indicate.
One short Lower temperature.
Two short Higher temperature.
Three short Cold wave.
By repeating each combination a few times, with intervals of ten seconds, liability to error
in reading the signals may be avoided.
As far a« practicable the forecast messages will be telegraphed at the expense of the
Weather Bureau; but if this is impracticable, thev will be furnished at the regular commercial
rates and sent "collect. " In no case will the forecasts be sent to a second address in any
place, except at the expense of the applicant.
Persons desiring to display the flags or sound the whistle signals for the benefit of the pub-
lic should communicate Avith the Weather Bureau officials in charge of the climatological
service of their respective States, the central stations of whic^ are as follows :

^1)0 Ancient auti i^oTJcnt ¥rar»
The Athenians began the year in .Tune, the Macedonians in September, the Romans first in March
and afterward in .Tainiary, the Persians on August 11. the ancient Mexicans on February 23, the Mo-
hammedans in Julv. The Chinese vear. which begins early in February, is similar to the Moham-
medan in having 12 months of 29 and :50 days alternately; biit in every nineteen years there are seven
years which have 13 months. Tliis is not quite correct, and the Chinese have therefore formed a
cycle of 60 years, in which period 22 intercalary months occur.

Majob de Montessus de BaLtOee, after years of labor, has drawn up a catalogue of 130,000
shocks, of which trustworthy details have been procured, and this indicates with some scientific
accuracy how the symptomsof seismic activity are manifested over the earth's surface. The period
of observation includes generally the last fifty years ; but there is no reason to suppose that a longer
time would materially affect the proportionate numbers. The appended figures, drawn from M. de
Montessus' s statistics, will give an idea of the general result:

The most shaken countries of the world are Italy, Japan, Greece, South America (the Pacific
Coast), Java, Sicily, and Asia Minor. The lands most free from these convulsions are A f rica, Aus-
tralia, Russia, Siberia, Scandinavia, and Canada. As a rule, where earthquakes are most frequent
they are most severe. But to this genei-al statement there are exceptions— Indian shocks, though
less numerous, being often very disastrous. Loss of li fe in many cases depends, however, on density
of population rather than on the intensity of the earth movement. Numerically, also, France has
registered more seismic tremors than Spain and Portugal, but France in historicti mes has experienced
no earthquake disaster approaching the havoc wrought by the one calamity at Lisbon, '

The above estimate was made by Ernest George Ravenstein, F. R. G. S. , the geographer and
statistician, and is for 1890. The population of North America, 1900, had increiusod to over
100,000,000.
An estimate of population of the earth, made by Drs. Wagner and Supan, editors of
"Bevollierung der Erde" (Perthes, Gotha, 1891), is as follows: Europe, 357.379,000; Asia.
825,954,000; Africa, 163,953,000; America, 121,713,000; Australia, 3,230,000; Oceanic
Islands, 7, 420, (X)0; polar regions, 80,400. Total, 1,479,729,400. The estimate of area of
the continents and islands by the same authorities is 52, 821, 684.
Ravenstein' s estimate of the earth's fertile region, in square miles, is 28, 2G9, 200 ; steppe,
13,901,000; desert, 4,180,000; polar regions, 4,888,800.
The population of the earth at tlie death of the Emperor Augustus, estimated by Bodio, was
54,000,000. The population of Europe hardly exceeded 50,000,000 before the fifteenth
century. — Mulhall.
The area and cubic contents of the earth, according to the data of Clark, given above, are:
Surface, 196, 971, 984 square miles ; cubic contents, 259, 944, 035, 515 cubic miles.
Murray (Challenger expedition) states the greatest depth of the Atlantic Ocean at 27,366
feet: Pacific Ocean, 30,000 feet; Indian Ocean, 18,582 feet; Southern Ocean, 25,200 feet;
Arctic Ocean, 9,000 feet. The Atlantic Ocean has an area, in square miles, of 24,536,000;
Pacific Ocean, 50,309,000; Indian Ocean, 17,084,000; Arctic Ocean, 4,781,000; Southern
Ocean, 30, 592, 000. The highest mountain is believed to be Deodhunga or Everest, one of the
Himalayas, 29,002 feet.

The human family is subject to forty- nine principal governments. As to their form they
may be classified as follows: .Ab6'oiatemo/ta/-c/iAe6", Abyssinia, Afghanistan, China, Korea, Morocco,
Siam, Turkey; LimiLed monarchies, Austria- Hungary, Belgium, British Empire, Denmark, Ger-
many, Greece, Italy, Japan, Montenegro, Netherlands, Norway, Persia, Portugal, Roumania,
Russia, Servia, Sweden, Spain ; Republics, Argentine Republic, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia,
Costa Rica, Cuba, Donainican Republic, Ecuador, France, Guatemala, Hayti, Honduras, Li-
beria, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Salvador, Switzerland, United States of
America, Uruguay, Venezuela. Besides these "are the undefined despotisms of Central Africa,
and a few insignificant independent States.
The average duration of human life is about 33 years. One- quarter of the people on the earth
die before age 6, one- half before age 16, and only about 1 person of each 100 born lives to age
65.

The Geological Strata.
K\)t Ecological <Sttata.
The strata composing the earth' s crust is divided by most geologists into two great cla.sses;
1. Those generally attributed to the agency of water. 2. To the action of tire ; which may be
subdivided as follows: (a) Aqueous formations, stratified, rarely crystalline (sedimentary or
fossiliferous rocks: metamorpliic or unfossiliferous). (6) Igneous formations, unstratified,
crystalline (volcanic. asba~salt; platonic, as granite).
The geological record is classified into five main divisions or periods: 1. The Archaean, life-
less and dawn of life. 2. The Palaeozoic (ancient life). 3. The Mesozoic (middle life). 4. The
Cenozoic (recent life). 5. Quaternary, the age in which man's first appearance is indicated.

Metric Systenic
149
The Metric System has been adopted by Mexico, Brazil. Chile, Peru, etc., and except Tlnssia
and Great Britain, where it is permissive, by all European nations. Various names of the precediner
systems are. however, frequentlv used : In Germany, }^ Icilosjraiu = 1 pound; in .Switzerland. 3-10
of a metre = 1 foot. etc. If the first letters of the prefixes tte^a. hrcln. kiln, mi/ria, from the Greek,
and deci,ceiUi,mUi, froiu the Latin, are used in preference to our plain Eu£flish, lO, 100, etc. . it is best
to employ capital letters for tlie multiples and small letters for tue suIkII visions, to avoid ambiguities
in abbreviations : 1 dekametre or 10 metres = 1 Dm. ; 1 decimetre or 1-10 of a metre •= 1 dm.
TheMKTRE, unit of length, is nearly the ten-millionth part of a quadrant of a meridian, of the
distance between Equator and Pole. The International Standard Metre Js, practically, nothina: else
but a length defined by the distance between two lines on a platinum-iridium bar at 0° Centigrade,
deposited at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures, Paris, France.
The Litre, unit of capacity, is derived from the weight of one kilogram pure water at greatest
density, a cube whose edge is oue-teuth of a metre and, therefore, the one- thousandth part of a
metric ton.
The Gram, unit of weight, Is a cube of pure water at greatest density, whose edge is one-hundredth
of a metre, and, therefore, the one- thousandth part of a kilogram, and the one-millionth part of a
metric ton.
The Metric System was legalized in the United States on July 28, 1866, when Congress enacted as
follows :
"The tables in the schedule hereto annexed shall be recognized in the construction of contracts,
and in all legal proceedings, as establishing, in terms of the weights and measures now in use in the
United States, the equivalents of the weights and measures e.xpressed therein in terms of the metric
system, and the tables ma.v lawfully be used for computing, determining, and expressing in custom-
ary weights and measures the weights and measures of the metric system, "

THE IVIETRIC SYSTEM SIMPLIFIED.
The following tables of the metric system of weights and measures have been simplified as much
as possible for The Worlo At,m.\x.ac by omitting such denominations as are not ia practical,
everyday use in the countries where the system is used exclusively.
TABLES OF THE SYSTEM.
Licngth.— The denominations in practical use are millimetres (mm. ), centimetres (cm. ), metres
(m. ), and kilometres (km. ).
10 mm. = 1 cm. ; 100 cm. = 1 m. ; 1,000 m. = 1 km. Note. —A decimetre is 10 cm.
Weigrlit.— The denomiuations in use are grams (g. ), liilos* (kg.), and tons (metric tons),
l.OOOg. =lkg. ; 1,000 kg. = 1 metric ton.
("apacity.— The denominations in use are cubic centimetres (c. c. ) and litres (1.).
1,000 c.c. = 1 1. Note. —A hectolitre is 100 1. (seldom used).
Relation of capacity and weight to length: A cubic decimetre is a litre, and a litre of water weighs
a kilo.
APPROXIMATE EQUIVALENTS.
A metre is about a yard; a kilo is about 2 pounds; a litre is atxjut a quart; a centimetre is about
J4 inch ; a metric ton is about .same as a ton ; a kilometre is about % mile ; a cubic centimetre is about a
thimbleful ; a nickel weighs about 5 grams.

The moa-suresof length and the weights are nearly, iiractically, the same as those in use In the
United States. The English ton is 2.J4(> lbs. avoirdupois, the same as the long ton, or shipping ton
of the United States. The English hundredweight is 112 lbs. avoirdupois, the same as the long
hundredweight of the United states. The metre has been legalized at 39. 37079 inches, but the length
of 39. 370432 inches, as adopted by France. Germany, Belgiimi, and Russia, is frequently used.
The Imperial gallon, the basis of the system of capacity, involves an error of about 1 part in 1,836:
10 lbs. of water = 277 123 cubic inches.
The English statute mile is 1,760 yards or 5,280 feet.

REGULATIONS RESPECTING EXAMINATION OF BAGGAGE.
_ Residents of the United States returning from abroad are met by a customs officer to whom they
will make a declaration, stating the number of trunks in their possession, their dutiable contents,
etc. A failure to declare dutiable goods renders the same liable to seizure and confiscation, and the
owner to fine and imprisonment. Customs officials are forbidden by law to accept "tips."
Prepare in advance a detailed list of all arr,iclesL,obtained abroad, with the prices paid therefor or
the value thereof, specifying separately articles of wearing apparel and other personal effects.
_ All personal effects taken abroad as baggage and brought back in the same condition will be ad-
mitted free, but if improved in condition they are dutiable. From the aggregate value of all articles
purchased abroad (unless they are intended for other persons or for sale) goods to the value of $10**
will be deducted, as that amount of personal property is admitted free of duty.
There is no limitation as to the value of articles free of duty brought in by persons declaring as
non-residents, provided such articles are in the nature of wearing apparel, and similar personal
effects actually accompanying the passenger and neces.sary and appropriate for wear and use for the
purposes of the journey, and not intended for other persons, norgor sale.
Government officers are forbidden by law to accept anything but currency in payment of duties.
In case passengers are dissatisfied with the value placed on dutiable articles, application may be
made to the Collector in writing within two days, and the appraisement will be reviewed by a General
Appraiser.

37^ declaration of Independence.
23eclaiMtion oC Kntrcptntrcnce.
IN CONGRESS JUI.Y 4, 1776.
The unanimous declaration of the thirteeu UnitPd Suites of America. When Jn the Course of
human events, it becomes necessarj- for one people to dissolve the political bands which have con-
nected tliem with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal sta-
tion to which the f^aws of Nature and of Nature's Goa entitles them, a decent respect to the opiuionS
of mankind recjnires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, tli^i tliey are endowed by
their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are L.ile, Liberty and the pursuit of
Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are iustituted among lAJen, deriving their just
powers from tlie consent of the governed, That wheneverany Form of Government becomes destruc-
tive ot these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Govern-
ment laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such lorm,as to them
shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that
Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly
all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sutterable, than
to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of
history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injiiries and usurpations, all
having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this,
let Pacts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless sus-
pended in their operation till his Asseut should be obtained; and when so sus))euded, he has utterly
neglected to attend to tjiem.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those
people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them
and formidai)le to tyrants only.
He has Called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the
depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliauce with hia
measures. ■» ,
He hasdissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing' with manly firmness his iuva«-
sions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected ; whereby th3
Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilatiou, have returned to the People at large for their exer-
cise: the State remaining in the meantime exposed to all the dangers of invasion ii'om without, and
convulsions within.
He has endeavored to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the
Law^s for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their miRrations hither,
and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of frauds.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing
Judiciarj' Powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount
and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitudeof New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our peo-
ple, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace. Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislature.
He has attected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and
unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Asseut to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
'' For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting[ them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should com-
mit on the fuhabitanUsof these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving ns in many cases, of tlie benelitsof Trial by jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended otfences:
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighboring Province, establishing therein an
Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit
instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally
the Forms of our Governments:
Forsuspendingourown Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate
for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War
against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and aestroyed the lives of oai
people.
He is at this lime transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of
death* desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely
paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow-Citizens tnken captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their
Country, to become the executioners of their frieuds and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their
Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants
of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savjiges, whose known rule of warfare, is an undisiinguished
destruction of all ages, sexes and con<litions.
In everj' stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most htrtnble terms:
Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince, whose character is
thus marKed by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from
time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We
have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have ap-

kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and corre-
spondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice ami of cousau^uinity. We must, there-

and DECLARE, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be free and independent
States; that I hej' are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political con-

as FREE and INDEPENDENT STATES, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract
Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which independent States
may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of
Divine Providence, We mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.

The Constitution requires that a census of the United States shall be taken decennially. The
FirstCensus was taken in 1790 under the supervision of the President; subsequent censuses, to and
includini^ that of 1840, were taken under tlie supervision of the Secretary of State. In 1849 the
supervision of the census was transferred to the newly organized Department of the Interior, and
continued under the control of that department until the passage of the act of 1903 creating the
Department of Commerce and Labor; by this act the Census Office was transferred to the supervision
of the new department. Congress, by act approved March 6, 1902, made the Census Office a per-
manent bureau of the (iovernment.
The last census of the United States was taken in 1900, in accordance with the act of ICongress
approved March 3, 1899. This act divided the statistical inquiry into two classes: Reports of the
Twelfth Census, comprising population, manufactures, agriculture, and vital statistics; and special
reports, the insane and feeble-minded, deaf, dumb, and blind; crime, pauperism, and benevolence;
deathsand births in registration areas, social statistics of cities, wealth, debt, and taxation; religious
bodies, electric light and power, telephones and telegraphs, transportation by water, street railways,
express companies, and mines and mining. To these were subsequently added annual statistics of
cotton production. The series comprising the main reports of the Twelfth Census were by law
ordered compiled and published by July 1, 1902, after which the special reports were to receive
consideration. In accordance with this law, ten volumes of the main reports, comprising about
10,000 pages, were published within the period specified, and summaries of these reports will be
found on other pages of The World Almanac*.
Since July 1, 1902, the Bureau of the Cens is has been engaged in securing and tabulating statistics
relating to the secondary reports, several of which have been completed or are now approaching com-
pletion. By act of Congress the President was empowered to instruct the Census Office to compile the
census of the Philippine Islands. In compliance with the President's order the tabulation was made
and the reports were published in four volumes. An edition in Spanish was also issued. Numerous
minor assignments of statistical work have been made to the Bureau. It is likely,indeed, to become
the main producer of, or clearing-house for. Federal statistics, as predicted during the discussion that
preceded the establishment of the permanent office. Since the publication of the main reports of
the Twelfth Census the Bureau has published the Abstract of the Twelfth Census, the Statistical
Atlas of the United States, special reports on Emploj'es and Wages, Occupations, Mines and
Quarries, Street Railways, Benevolent Institutions, -Electric Light and Power Stations, the Blind
and the Deaf; Mortality, 1900 to 1904; Supplementarj' Analysis of the Twelfth Census; the Insane
and Feeble-minded in Hospitals and Institutions; Paupers in Almshouses, Manufactures, 1905;
Wealth, Debt, and Taxation; Prisoners; Women at Work; Mortalitj', 1905; and bulletins on
Statistics of Cities, Valuation of Railway Operating Property, and Child Labor. It has also taken
the census of Manufactures of 1905, and has issued bulletins giving the results for the United States
and for the States and Territories, and for specified industries. During 1908 the Bureau will be
occupied principally in completing the reports on Wages, Transportation by Water; IMarriage and
Divorce; Religfous Bodies; Criminal Judicial Statistics; Express Companies, and the annual reports
on Morta'iitv and Cotton Production and Consumption.
The Director of the Census is appointed by the President of the United States, and receives a
salary of §6,000. The present Director is S. N. D, North, of Massachusetts. The office organization
consistsof chief clerk, William S. Rossiter; a disbursing and appointment clerk, Thomas S. Merrill;
four chief statisticians; for population, William C. Hunt; for manufactures, William M. Steiiart; for
agriculture, Le Grand Powers, and for vital statistics, Cressy L. Wilbur; a geographer, Charles S.
Sloane; and such administrative division chiefs asare required by the demands of the office. The
pntire numberof employes in the Bureau on July 1, 1907, was 636. This number does not include
epecial agents em Dloyea intermittently in the Southern States for the collection of cotton §|&ti9tica.
174 Washington's Farewell Address.
EXTRACTS FROM HIS ADDRESS COUNSELLING THE MAINTENANCE OP THBJ
UNION.— CONFINEMENT OF THE GENERAL GOVERNMENT TO ITS COKSTI-
TUTIONAL LIMITATIONS. AND AVOIDANCE OF RELATIONS
WITH FOREIGN POLITICAL AFFAIRS.
(,1b the Peoiile of the United States on His Approaching Retirement from the Presidency.)
Here, perhaps, I ought to stop; but a solicitude for your welfare, whicli cannot end but
with my life, and the apprehension of danger natural to that solicitude, urge me, on an-
occasion like the present, to offer to your solemn contemplation, and to recommend to your"
frequent review, some sentiments, which are the result of much reflection, of no inconsid-
erable observation, and which appear to me all important to the permanency of your felicity
as a people. These will be afforded to you with the more freedom, as you can only see in
them the disinterested warnings of a parting friend, who can possibly have no personal
motive to bias his counsel; nor can I forget, as an encouragement to it, your indulgent
reception of my sentiments on a former and not dissimilar occasion.
Interwoven as is the love of liberty with every ligament of your hearts, no recom-
mendation of mine is necessary to fortify or confirm the attachment.
PRESERVATION OF THE UNION.
The unity of government, which constitutes you one people, is also now dear to you. It
Is justly so; for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence — the support of
your tranquillity at home, your peace abroad, of jour safety, of your prosperity, of that very
liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes
and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed, to weaken
In your minds the conviction of this truth; as this is the point in your political fortress
against which the batteries of internal and external enemies will be most constantly and
actively (though often covertly and insidiously) directed — it is of infinite moment that you
should properly estimate the immense value of your national union to your collective and
Individual happiness; that you should cherish a cordial, habitual and immovable attachment
to it; accustoming yourselves to think and speak of it as of the palladium of your political
safety and prosperity; watching for its preservation with jealous anxiety; discountenancing
whatever may suggest even a suspicion that it can, in any event, be abandoned; and indig-
nantly fpowning' upon the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of our
country from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred ties which now link together the various
parts.
For this you have everj' Inducement of sympathy and interest. Citizens by birth or
choice, of a common country, that country has a right to concentrate your affections. The
name of America, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt the
just pride of patriotism, more than any appellation derived from local discriminations.
With slight shades of difference, you have the same religion, manners, habits, and political!
principles. You have, in a common cause, fought and triumphed together'; the independence
and liberty you possess are the work of joint counsels and joint efforts, of common dangers^
sufferings, and successes.
ENCROACHMENTS BY THE GOVERNMENT.
It is important, likewise, that the habits of thinking, in a free country, should inspire
caution in those intrusted with its administration, to confine themselves within their respec-
tive constitutional spheres, avoiding, in the exercise of the powers of one department, t»
encroach upon another. The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all
the departments in one, and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real des-
potism. A just estimate of that love of power, and proneness to abuse it which predom-
inates in the human heart, is sufficient to satisfy us of the truth of this position. The
necessity of reciprocal checks in the exercise of political power, by dividing and distributing
it into different depositories, and constituting each the guardian of the public weal, against
Invasions by the others, has been evinced by experiments, ancient and modern; some of them
in our own country, and under our own eyes. To preserve them must be as necessary as
to institute them. If, in the opinion of the people, the distribution or modification of the
constitutional powers be, in any particular, wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in
the way which the Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for
though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by
which fi'ee governments are destroyed. The precedent must always greatly overbalance. In
permanent evil, and partial or transient benefit which the use can, at any time, yield.
Observe good faith and justice toward all nations; cultivate peace and harmony with
all; religion and morality enjoin this conduct; and can it be that good policy does not
equally enjoin it? It will be worthy of a free, enlightened, and, at no distant period, a
great nation, to give to mankind the magnanimous and too novel example of a people
always guided by an exalted justice and benevolence. Who can doubt that, in the course of
time and things, the fruits of such a plan would richly repay any temporary advantages
which might be lost by a steady adherence to it? Can it be that Providence has not con-
nected the permanent felicity of a nation with its virtue? The experiment, at least, is
recommended by every sentiment which ennobles human nature. Alas! is It rendered
impossible by its vices?
ENTANGLEMENTS WITH FOREIGN POWERS.
Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to believe me, fellow-
citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake; since history and expe-
rience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government.
But that jealousy to be useful, must be impartial; else it becomes the instrument of the
very influence to be avoided, instead of a defense against it. Excessive partiality for one
foreign nation, and excessive dislike for another, cause those whom they actuate to see
danger only on one side, and serve to veil, and even second, the arts of influence on the
other. Real patriots, who may resist the Intrigues of the favorite, are liable to become
suspected and odious., while its tools and dupe« usuri> th« applAUs« iind confidence ol th«

mercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we
have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here
let us stop.
Europe has a set of primary interests, which to us have none, or a very remote relation.
Hence she must be engaged in frequent controversies, the causes of which are essentially
foreign to our concerns. Hence, therefore, it must be unwise in us to implicate ourselves,
by artificial ties, in the ordinary vicissitudes of her politics, or the ordinary combinations
and collisions of her friendships or enmities.
Our detached and distant situation invites and enables us to pursue a different course.
If we remain one people under an efficient government, the period is not far off when we
may defy material injury from external annoyance; when we may take such an attitude
as will cause the neutrality we may at any time resolve upon, to be scrupulously respected;
when belligerent nations, under the impossibility of making acfiuisitions upon us, will not
lightly hazard the giving us provocation; when we may choose peace or war, as ovlt interest,
guided by justice, shall counsel.
PARTING COUNSELS.
Xn offering to you, my countrymen, these counsels of an old and affectionate friend, I
dare not hope that they will make the strong and lasting impression I could wish; that they
will control the usual current of the passions, or prevent our nation from running the course
which has hitherto marked the destiny of nations; but if I may even flatter myself that they
may be productive of some partial benefit, some occasional good; that they may now and
then recur to moderate the fury of party spirit, to warn against the mischiefs of foreign
intrigues, to guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism; this hope will be full
recompense for the solicitude for your welfare by which they have been dictated.
United States, September 17, 1796. GEORGE WASHINGTON.
(Address at tlie Dedication of Gettysburg Cemetery, I^oveviber 19, 1863, )
F0UB.SCORE and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new
nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation
so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that
war. We are met to dedicate a portion of it as the final resting-place of those who here
gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we
should do this.
But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this
ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it far above
our power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say
here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be
dedicated here to the unfinished work that they have thus far so nobly carried on. It is
rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us; that from these
honored dead we take increased devotion to the cause for which they here gave the last
full measure of devotion; that we here highlj^ resolve that the dead shall not have died in
vain; that the nation shall, under God, have a new birth of freedom, and that government
of the people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

same," passed by the Filty-eighth Congress, and approved by the President, February 20, 1905,
and amended by Act passed by the Fifty-ninth Cougrtess, approved March 2, 1907.
' ' The ownerof a trade- mark used in cominerce with foreign nations, or among the several States,
or with Indian tribes, provided such orner shall be domiciled within the territory of tl)e United
States, or resides in or is located in any tjreign country which, by treaty, convention, or law, affords
similar privileges to the citizens of the United States, may obtain registration for such traue-mark
by complying with the following requirements: First, by filing in the Patent Office an application
therefor, in writing, addressed to the Commissioner of Patents, signed by tlie applicant, specifying
his name, domicile, location, and citizenship; the class of merchandise and the particular description
of goods comprised in such class to which the trade-mark is appropriated; a description of the trade-
mark itself, and a statement of the mode in which the same is applied and affixed to goods, and the
length of time during which the trade-mark has been used. With this statement shall be filed a
drawing of the trade-mark, signed by the applicant, or his attorney, and such number of specimeus
of the trade-mark, as actually used, as may be required by the Coinmissioner of Patents. Second, by
paying into the Treasury of the United States the sum of ten dollars, and otherwise complying with
the requirements of this Act and such regulations as may be prescribed by the Commissioner of
Patents.
'* A certificate of registration shall remain in force for twenty years, except that in the case of
trade-marks previously registered in a foreign country such certificates shall cease to be in force on-
the day on which the trade-mark ceases to be protected in such foreign country, and shall in no case
remain in force more than twenty years, unless renewed. Certificates of registration may be, from
time to time, renewed for like periods on payment of the renewal fees required by this "Act, upon
request by the registrant, his legal representatives, or transferees of record in the Patent Office, and
such request may be made at any time not more than six months prior to the expiration of the period
for which the certificates of registration were issued or renewed. Certificates of registration in force
at tlie date at which this Act takes effect shall remain in force for the period for which thej' were
issued, but shall be renewable on the same conditions and for the same periods as certificates issued
under the provisions of this Act, and when so renewed shall have the same force and effect as certifi-
cates issued under this Act.
' ' The registration of a trade- mark under the provisions of this Act shall be prima facie evidence
of ownership who shall, without the consent of the owner thereof, reproduce, counterfeit, copy, or
colorably imitate any such trade- mark and affix the same to merchandise of substantially the same
descriptive properties as those set forth in the registration, or to labels, signs, prints, packages,
wrappers, or receptacles intended to be used upon or in connection vvith the sale of merchandise of
substantially the same descriptive properties as those set forth in such registration, and shall use,
or shall have used, such reproduction, counterfeit, copy, or colorable imitation in commerce among
the several States, or with a foreign nation, or with tlie Indian tribes, sliall be liable to an action for
damages thei-efor at the suit of the owner thereof ; and whenever in any such action a verdict is
rendered for the plaintiff, the court may enter judgment therein for any sum above the amount
found by the verdict as the actual damages, according to the circumstances of the case, not exceeding
three times the amount of such verdict, together with tUe costs."
No trade-mark shall be granted which ' ' consists of or coinprises the f^ag or coat of arms or other
insignia of the United States or any simulation thereof, orof any State or municipality, or of any foreign
nation, nor which is identical with or nearlj' resembling a trade-mark already registered. " "No
portrait of a living individual may be registered as a trade-mark except by the consent of such
individual, evidenced by an instrument in writing."
TRADE-MARK TREATIES WITH FOREIGN NATIONS.
The following is a list of the Governments with which conventions for the reciprocal registration
and protection of trade-marks have been entered into by the United States : .\ustria- Hungary,
Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain (including colonies), Italy, Japan, Luxemburg,
Russia, ^Servia, Spain. The laws of Switzerland and the Netherlands being so framed as to afiford
reciprocal privileges to the citizens or subjects of any GoviMnmont which affords similar privileges
to the people of those countries, the mere exchange of diplomatic notes, giving notice of the fact,
accomplishes all the purposes of a formal convention.

than three immigrant inspectors, the Secretary of Commerce and Labor, upon the recom-
mendation of the Commissioner-General of Immigration, may designate other United States
officials for service on such boards of special inquiry. Such boards shall have authority
186 The New Immigratio7i Law,
to determine whether an alien who has been duly held shall be allowed to land or shall be
deported. All hearings before boards shall be separate and apart from the public, but the
said boards shall keep a, complete permanent record of their proceedings and of all such
testimony as may be produced before them; and the decision of any two members of a
board shall prevail, but either the alien or any dissenting member of the said board may
appeal through the Commissioner of Immigration at the port of arrival, and the Commis-
sioner-General of Immigration to the Secretary of Commerce and Labor, and the taking
of such appeal shall operate to stay any action in regard to the final disposal of any alien
whose case is so appealed until the receipt by the Commissioner of Immigration at the
port of arrival of such decision which shall be rendered solely upon the evidence adduced
before the board of special inquiry: Provided, That in every case where an alien is
excluded from admission into the United States, under any law or treaty now existing, or
hereafter made, the decision of the appropriate immigration officers, if adverse to the
admission of such alien, shall be final, unless reversed on appeal to the Secretary of Com-
merce and Labor; but nothing in this section shall be construed to admit of any appeal in
the case of an alien rejected as provided for in Section 10 of this Act."
Any alien liable to be excluded because likely to become a public charge, or because of
physical disability, may, nevertheless, be admitted in the discretion of the Secretary of
Commerce and Labor on giving a suitable bond that he or she will not become a public
charge.
The Commissioner-General of Immigration shall prescribe rules for the entry and
inspection of aliens along the box'ders of Canada and Mexico.
JOINT COMMISSION ON IMMIGRATION CREATED.
Section 39 provides that "a commission is hereby created, consisting of three Senators,
to be appointed by the President of the Senate, and three members of the House of Rep-
resentatives, to be appointed by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and three
persons, to be appointed by the President of the United States. Said commission shall
make full inquiry, examination and investigation by sub-committee or otherwise into the

mission or any member thereof to administer oaths and to examine witnesses and papers
respecting all matters pertaining to the subject, and to employ necessary clerical and other

and make such recommendations as in its judgment may seem proper. Such sums of money
as may be necessary for the said inquiry, examination and investigation are hereby appro-
priated and authorized to be paid out of the "immigration fund' on the certificate of the
chairman of said commission, including all expenses of the commissioners and a reason-
able compensation, to be fixed by the President of the United States, for those members
of the commission who are not members of Congress; and the President of the United
States is also authorized, in the name of the Government of the United States, to call, in
his discretion, an international conference, to assemble at such point as may be agreed
upon, or to send special commissioners to any foreign country, for the purpose of regulating
by international agreement, subject to the advice and consent of the Senate of the United
States, the immigration of aliens to the United States; of providing for the mental, moral
and physical examination of such aliens by American consuls or other officers of the
United States Government at the ports of embarkation, or elsewhere; of securing the assist-
ance of foreign governments in their own territories to prevent the evasion of the laws of
the United States governing immigration to the United States; of entering into such inter-
national agreements as may be proper to prevent the immigration of aliens who, under the
laws of the United States, are or may be excluded from entering the United States, and of

INFORMATION FOR IMMIGRANTS.
By Section 40 "authority is hereby given the Commissioner-General of Immigration to
establish, under the direction and control of the Secretary of Commerce and Labor, a
division of information in the Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization; and the Secretary
of Commerce and Labor shall provide such clerical assistance as may be necessary. It
shall be the duty of said division to promote a beneficial distribution of aliens admitted
Into the United States among the several States and Territories desiring immigration. Cor-
respondence shall be had with the proper officials of the States and Territories, and said
division shall gather from all available sources useful information regarding the resources,
products, and physical characteristics of each State and Territory, and shall publish such
Information in different languages and distribute the publications among all admitted aliens
who may ask for such information at the immigrant stations of the United States, and to
such other persons as may desire the same. When any State or Territory appoints and
maintains an agent or agents to represent it at any of the immigrant stations of the
United States, such agents shall, under regulations prescribed by the Commissioner-General
of Immigration, subject to the approval of the Secretary of Commerce and Labor, have
access to aliens who have been admitted to the United States for the purpose of presenting,
either orally or in writing, the special inducements offered by such State or Territory to
aliens to settle therein. While on duty at any immigrant station such agents shall be
subject to all the regulations prescribed by the Commissioner-General of Immigration, who,
with the approval of the Secretary of Commerce and Labor, may, for violation of any such
regulations, deny to the agent guilty of such violation any of the privileges herein granted."
Nothing in this Act shall be construed to apply to accredited officials of foreign gov-
ernments, nor to their suites, families or guests.
Section 42 provides for the proper accommodation of immigrant passengers in vessels,
carrying them to the United States. These regulations are quite minute and rigid.

the following provisions regulating the inspection of meat foods either in the hoof or car-
cass or in canning and packing establishments:
"For the purpose of preventing the use in interstate or foreign commerce, as herein-
after provided, of meat and meat food products which are unsound, unhealthful, unwhole-
some or otherwise unfit for human food, the Secretary of Agriculture, at his discretion,
may cause to be made, by inspectors appointed for that purpose, an examination and
inspection of all cattle, sheep, swine, and goats, before they shall be allowed to enter into
any slaughtering, packing, meat-canning, rendering, or similar establishments in which
they are to be slaughtered, and the meat and meat food products thereof are to be used in
interstate or foreign commerce; and all cattle, swine, sheep, and goats found on such
inspection to show symptoms of disease shall be set apart and slaughtered separately from
all other cattle, sheep, swine, or goats, and when so slaughtered the carcasses of said cattle,
sheep, swine, or goats, shall be subject to a careful examination and inspection, all as pro-
vided by the rules and regulations to be prescribed by the Secretary of Agriculture as

ing, packing, rendering, or similar establishment in any State, Territory, or the District of
Columbia for transportation or sale as articles of interstate or foreign commerce; and the

passed;' and said inspectors shall label, mark, stamp, or tag as 'inspected and condemned'
all carcasses and parts thereof of animals found to be unsound, unhealthful, unwholesome,
or otherwise unfit for human food; and all carcasses or parts thereof thus Inspected and
condemned shall be destroyed for food purposes by the said establishment in the presence
of an inspector, and the Secretary of Agriculture may remove inspectors from any such
establishment which fails to so destroy any such condemned carcass or part thereof, and
said inspectors, after said first inspection shall, when they deem it necessary, reinspect
said carcasses or parts thereof to determine whether since the first inspection the same
have become unsound, unhealthful, unwholesome, or in any way unfit for human food, and
if any carcass or any part thereof shall, upon examination and inspection subsequent to the
first examination and inspection, be found to be unsound, unhealthful, unwholesome, or
otherwise unfit for human food, it shall be destroyed for food purposes by the said estab-
lishment in the presence of an inspector, and the Secretary of Agriculture may remove
inspectors from any establishment which fails to so destroy any such condemned carcass
or part thereof.
"The foregoing provisions shall apply to all carcasses or parts of carcasses of cattle,
sheep, swine, and goats, or the meat or meat products thereof which may be brought Into
any slaughtering, meat-canning, salting, packing, renderirfg, or similar establishment, and

products which, after having been issued from any slaughtering, meat-canning, salting,
packing, rendering, or similar establishment, shall be returned to the same or to any
similar establishment where such inspection is maintained.
"For the purposes hereinbefore set forth the Secretary of Agriculture shall cause to be
made by inspectors appointed for that purpose an examination and inspection of all meat
food products prepared for interstate or foreign commerce in any slaughtering, meat-can-
ning, salting, packing, rendering, or similar establishment, and for the purposes of any
examination and inspection said inspectors shall have access at all times, by day or night,
whether the establishment be operated or not, to every part of said establishment, and said
inspectors shall mark, stamp, tag, or label as 'inspected and passed' all such products
found to be sound, healthful, and wholesome, and which contain no dyes, chemicals, pre-
servatives, or ingredients which render such meat or meat food products unsound, unhealth-
ful, unwholesome, or unfit for human food; and said inspectors shall label, mark, stamp,
or tag as 'inspected and condemned' all such products found unsound, unhealthful. and
unwholesome, or which contain dyes, chemicals, preservatives, or ingredients which render
such meat or meat food products unsound, unhealthful, unwholesome, or unfit for human
food, and all such condemned meat food products shall be destroyed for food purposes, as
hereinbefore provided, and the Secretary of Agriculture may remove inspectors from any
establishment which fails to so destroy such condemned meat food product."
Other sections of the law provide "for the sanitary examination of slaughterinj*. packing,
and canning establishments, and the labelling of all such inspected articles of food.

meat and meat food products, supplying their customers: Provided, That if any person
shall sell or offer for sale or transportation for interstate or foreign commerce any meat
or meat food products which are diseased, unsound, unhealthful, unwholesome, or other-
wise unfit for human food, knowing that such meat food products are intended for human
consumption, he shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and on conviction thereof shall be pun-
ished by a fine not exceeding "$1,000 or by imprisonment for a pei'iod of not exceeding one
year, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
Chapter 29S9 of the Acts of the Fifty-ninth Congress, second session, "An Act to pro-
mote the safety of employees and travellers upon railroads by limiting the hours of service
of employees therein," approved March 4, 1907, provides that:
It shall be unlawful for any common carrier, its officers or agents, subject to this Act,
to require or permit any employee subject to this Act to be or remain on duty for a longer
period than sixteen consecutive hours, and whenever any such employee of such common
carrier shall have been continuously on duty for sixteen hours, he shall be relieved and
not required or permitted again to go on duty until he has had at least ten consecutive
hours off duty; and no such employee who has been on duty sixteen hours in the aggregate
in anj' twenty-four-hour period shall be required, or permitted to continue, or again go
on duty without having had at least eight consecutive hours off duty: Provided, That no
operator, train dispatcher, or other employee who, by the use of the telegraph or telephone

190 Interstate Commerce Law.
interstate (Commerce Hato.
The following is a synopsis of the provisions of the Interstate Commerce law and acts amendatory
thereof, prepared for the Official Congressional Directory:
Under " An Act to Regulate Commerce," approved February 4. 1887 ; as amended March 2,1889;
February 10, 1891; Februarys, 1893; the "Elkins Act " of February 19, 1903. and the amending act ap-
proved June 29, 1906, the Interstate Commerce Commission is composed of seven members, eaca receiv-
ing a salary of $10,000 per annum. The regulating statutes apply to all common carriers engaged in
the transportation of oil or other commodity, except water and except natural or artificial gas, by
means of pipe lines, or partly by pipe line and partly by rail, or partly by pipe line and partly by water,
and to common carriers engaged in the transportation of passengers or property wholly by railroad
(or partly by railroad and partly by water when both are used under a common control, management.
or arrangement for a continuous carriage or shipment). The statutes apply generally to interstate
traffic, including import and domestic traffic, and also that which is carried wholly within any Territory
of the United States. Only traffic transported wholly within a single State is excepted.
The Commission has jurisdiction on complaint, and, after full hearing, to determine and prescribe
reasonable rates, regulations, and practices, and order reparation to injured shippers; to require any
carriers to cease and desist from unjust discrimination, or undue or unreasonable preference, and to
institute and carry on proceedings for enforcement of the law. The Commission may also inquire into
the management of the business of all common carriers subject to the provisions of the rt^gulating
statutes, and it may prescribe the accounts, records, and memoranda which shall be kept by the
carriers, and from time to time inspect the same. The carriers must file annual reports with the Com-
mission, and such other reports as may from time to time be required. Various other powers are con-
ferred upon the Commission. Carriers failing totiia and publish all rates and charges, as required by
law, are prohibited from engaging in interstate transportation, and p(?nalties are provided in the
' statute for failure on the part of carriers or of shippers to observe the rates specified in the published
tariffs.
The Commission also appoints a Secretary and clerks, whose duties are not specifically defined by
the act.
The act of February 11, 1903, provides that suits in equity brought under the act to regulate com-
merce, wherein the United States is complainant, may be expedited and given precedence over other
suits, and that appeals from the Circuit Court lie only to the Suprenib Court. The act of February 19,
1903, commonly called the Elkins Law, penalizes the offering, soliciting, or receiving of rebates, allows
proceedings in the courts by injunction to restrain departures from published rates, and makes the
Expediting Act of February 11, 1903, include cases prosecuted under the direction of the Attorney-
General in the name of the Commission.
Under the act of August 7, 1888, all railroad and telegraph companies to which the United States
have granted any subsidy in lands or bonds or loan of credit for the construction of either railroad or
telegraph lines are required to file a^inual reports with the Commission and such other reports as the
Commission may call for. The act also directs every such company to hie with the Commission copies
of all contracts and agreements of every description existing between it and every other person or cor-
poration whatsover in reference to the ownership, possession, or operation of any telegraph lines over
or upon the right of way, and to decide questions relating to the interchange of business between such
government-aided telegraph company and any connecting telegraph co^npany. The act provides
penalties for failure to perform and carry out withiu a reasonable time the order or orders of the
Commission.
The act of March 2, 1893, known as the "Safety Appliance Act," provides that within specified
periods railroad cars used in intsrstate commerce must be equipped with automatic couplers and
standard height of drawbars for freight cars, and have grab irons or hand holds in the ends and sides
of each car. A further provision is that locomotive engines used in moving interstate traffic shall be
fitted with a power driving-wheel brake and appliances for operating the train-brake system, and a
sufficient number of cars in the train shall be equipped with power or train brakes. The act directs the
Commission to lodge with the proper District-Attorneys information of such violations as may come to
its knowledge. The Commission is authorized to, from time to time, upon full hearing and for good
cause, extend the period within which any common carrier shall comply with the provisions of the
.statute. The act of March 2, 1903, amendea this act so as to make its provisions apply to Territories
and the District of Columbia to all cases when couplers of whatever design are brought together, and to
all locomotives, cars, and other equipmentof any railroad engaged in interstate traffic, except logging
cars and cars used upon street railways, and also to power or train brakes used in railway operation.
The act of .Tune 1, 1898, concerning carriers engaged in interstate commerce and their employes,
known as the "Arbitration Act," directs the Chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission and
the Commissioner of Labor to use their best efforts, by mediation and conciliation, to settle contro-
versies between railway companies and their employes. Every agreement of arbitration made under
the act must be forwarded to the Chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission, who shall file the
same in the office of that Commission. When the agreement of arbitration is signed by employes in-
dividually instead of a labor organization, the act provides, if various specified conditions have been
complied with, that the Chairman of the Commission shall, by notice in writing, fix a time and place
for the meeting of the Board of Arbitrators, If the two arbitrators chosen by the parties fail to select
a third within five days after the first meeting, the third arbitrator shall be named by the Chairman of
the Interstate Commerce Commission and the Commissioner of Labor.
The act of March 3, 1901, "requiring common carriers engaged in interstate commerce to make
reports of all accidents to the Interstate Commerce Commission," makes it the duty of such carrier to
monthly report, under oath, all collisions and derailments of its trains and accidents to its passengers,
and to its employes while on duty in its service, and to state the nature and causes thereof. The act
prescribes that a fine shall be imposed against any such carrier failing bo make the report so required.

Chapter 429 of the Laws of 1907, "An Act to establish the Public Service Commissions
and prescribing their powers and duties, and to provide for the regulation and control of
certain public service corporations and making an appropriation therefor," became a law
on June 6, 1907. Two Public Service Commissions of five members each were created by
the Act, one with authority in the First District, which included the counties of New York,
Kings, Queens and Richmond, and the other in the Second District, which included all the
other counties of the State.
The Act abolished the existing State Board of Railroad Commissioners, the State Com-
mission of Gas and Electricity, the State Inspector of Gas Meters, and the Board of Rapid
Transit Commissioners of New York City. All the powers of the Railroad Commissioners,
of the Commission of Gas and Electricity, and of the Inspector of Gas Meters were con-
ferred upon the Public Service Commissions. All the powers and duties of the Board of
Rapid Transit Railroad Commissioners of New York City were conferred upon the Public
Service Commission of the First District. The first Commissioners appointed are to hold
office, respectively, until February 1. 1909; February 1, 1910; February 1, 1911; February 1,
1912. and February 1, 1913. Each of their successors are to hold office for a period of five
years. The Governor is authorized to remove any Commissioner for inefficiency, neglect of
duty or misconduct in office, giving to him a copy of the charges against him, and an oppor-
tunity of being publicly heard in person or by counsel in his own defence.
The jurisdiction of the Public Service Commission of the First District extends to rail-
roads and street railroads lying exclusively within that district, to any common carrier
operating exclusively within that district, and to the manufacture, sale or distribution of
gas and electricity for light, heat and power in that district. In addition the Commission
of the First District is to exercise the powers heretofore conferred upon the Board of Rapid
Transit Railroad Commissions. All jurisdiction not specifically granted to the Public Service
Commission of the First District is granted to the Public Service Commission of the Second
District. The annual salary of each Public Service Commissioner is to be $15,000; of their
secretary, $6,000. and of their counsel. $10,000.
The Act provides that every railway corporation shall furnish with respect thereto such
service or facilities as shall be safe and adequate, and in all respects just and reasonable;
and, secondly, that all charges made or demanded by any such corporation, person or
common carrier for the transportation of passengers, freight or property, for any service
rendered, or to be rendered, in connection therewith, shall be just and reasonable, and not
more than allowed by law or by order of the Public Service Commission having jurisdiction,
and made as authorized by the Act. Every unjust or reasonable charge made or demanded
for any such service or transportation of passengers, freight or property, or in connection
therewith, or in excess of that allowed by law or by order of the Commission, is prohibited.
A railroad corporation, upon the application of any shipper tendering traffic for transporta-
tion, must construct upon I'easonable terms a switch connection. Every common carrier Is
to file with the Public Service Commission having jurisdiction, and print and keep open to
public inspection, schedules shoA^ing the rates, fares and charges for the transportation of
passengers and property within the State between each point upon its route and all other
points thereon. The schedules are to plainly state the places between which property and
passengers are to be carried, the classification of passengers, freight and property in force,
all terminal charges, storage charges, icing charges, and all other charges which the Com-
mission may require to be stated, all privileges -or facilities granted or allowed, and any
rules or regulations which may in any wise change, affect, or determine any part, or the
aggregate of the rates, fares or charges, or the value of the service rendered to the passen-
ger, shipper or consignee. Such schedules are to be plainly printed in large type; copies for
the use of the public are to be kept posted in two public and conspicuous places In every
depot, station and office of every common carrier where passengers &r property are received
for transportation in such manner as to be readily accessible to and conveniently inspected
by the public. No common carrier, the Act says, "shall directly or indirectly bv any
special rate, rebate, drawback, or other device or method, charge, demand, collect or receive
from any person or corporation a greater- or less compensation for any service rendered or
to be rendered in the transportation of passengers, freight or propertv, except as authorized
in this Act, than it charges, demands, collects, or receives from anv other person or corpora-
i^°" .^°^ doing a like and contemporaneous service in the transportation of a like kind of
traffic under the same or substantially similar circumstances and conditions." The giving

employees and certain other specified classes, or in certain' specified cases, is prohibited. No
common carrier is to charge or receive any greater compensation in the aggregate for the
transportation of passengers, or of a like kind or property, under substantially similar
circumstances and conditions for a shorter than for a longer distance over the same line
in the same direction, the shorter being included within the longer distance. Upon the
application, however, of a common cai-rier the Public Service Commission may, by order,
authorize it to charge less for a longer than for shorter distances for the transportation of
passengers or property in special cases after investigation by the Commission. Every rail-
road corporation and street railway corporation is to have sufficient cars and motive power
to meet all requirements for the transportation of passengers and property which may rea-
sonably be anticipated. Every railroad corporation must furnish to all persons and corpora-
tions who apply therefor and offer freight for transportation sufficient and suitable cars
for the transportation of such freight in car-load lots.
POWERS OF THE COMMISSIONS.
Each one of the Public Service Commissions is to have general supervision
of all common carriers, railroads and street railroads, and is directed to keep
informed as to their general condition, their capitalization, their franchises, and the manner
in which their lines owned, leased, controlled or operated, are managed, conducted and
operated, not only with respect to the adequacy, security and accommodation afforded by
their service, but also with respect to their compliance with all provisions of law, orders
of the Commission and Charter requirements. Each Commission is given power to examine
all books, contracts, documents and papers of any person or corporation subject to its
supervision, and by subpoena to compel production thereof. Each Commission is to pre-
scribe the form of the annual reports required under the Act to be made by common
carriers, railroad and street railroad corporations. Each Commission is to investigate the
cause of all accidents on any railroad or street railroad within its district which result in
loss of life or injury to persons or property, and which, in their judgment, require investiga-
tion. Whenever either Commission shall be of the opinion that the rates, fares or charges
demanded by any common carrier, railroad corporation or street railroad corporation subject
to its jurisdiction are unjust, unreasonable, unjustly discriminatory, or unduly preferential,
or in anywise in violation of any provision of law, it shall determine the just and reason-
able rates, fares and charges to be thereafter observed and in force as the maximum to be
charged for the service to be performed. And whenever a Public Service Commission is
of the opinion, after a hearing, that the equipment, appliances or service of any common
carrier, railroad corporation or street railroad corporation is unsafe, its members are
required to determine the safe equipment thereafter to be in force, and prescribe the same
by an order to be served upon tiie common carrier, railroad corporation or street railway
corporation concerned. The Commissions are granted power to require two or more common
carriers owning a continuous line of transportation to establish joint rates, fares and
charges. The Commissions may order repairs and improvements to be made to tracks,
switches, terminals, and motive powers in order to promote the security or convenience of
the public. If, in the judgment of the Commission having jurisdiction, any railroad corpora-
tion or street railroad corporation does not run trains enough or cars enough, or possess or
operate motive power enough reasonably to accommodate the traffic, passengers and freight
transported by it, or it does not run its trains or cars with sufficient frequency, such a
Commission may make an order directing any such corporation to increase the number of
its trains, or of its cars, or its motive power. A uniform system of accounts for railroad
and street railway corporations is authorized. Without first having obtained the permission
and approval of the proper Public Service Commission, no railroad corporation may begin
the construction of a railroad or street railroad. The Commission within whose district
such construction is to be m"de is authorized to grant its approval when, in its judgment,
the exercise of the fi-anchise or privilege is necessary or convenient for the public service.
No franchise to own or operate a railroad or street railroad may be assigned, transferred
or leased unless the assignment, transfer or lease is first approved by the proper Commis-
sion. No railroad corporation or street railroad corporation is to acquire the capital stock
of any railroad corporation or street railroad corporation unless authorized to do so by one
of the Commissions created by the Act. Every contract for a transfer of stock by or
through any person or corporation to any corporation in violation of the Act, it is declared,
shall be void. Common carriers, railroads, and street railroad corporations are authorized
to issue stocks, bonds, notes and other evidences of indebtedness when necessary for the
acquisition of property, provided, that they shall have secured from the proper Commission
an order authorizing such an issue. For the purpose of enabling it to determine whether
it should issue such an order, the Commission concerned is to make an inquiry, and exam-
ine such books or contracts as it may deem of importance in enabling it to reach a deter-
mination. The Act says that "any common carrier, railroad corporation or street railroad
corporation which shall violate any provision of this Act. or which fails, omits, or neglects
to obey, observe, or comply with any order, or any direction, or requirement of the Com-
mission, shall forfeit ♦o the people of the State of New York not to exceed the sum of $5,000
for each and every offence; every violation of any such order, or direction, or requirement,
or of this Act, shall be a separate and distinct offence; and in case of a continuing viola-
tion, every day's continuance thereof shall be, and be deemed to be, a separate and distinct
offence." It is also made a misdemeanor for the officer of a corporation to violate the Act,
or to procure any violation by any such corporation. Summary proceedings in the courts
are authorized in the case of offending corporations.
INTERSTATE TRAFFIC.
Either of the Commissions may investigate freight rates on Interstate traffic on rail-
roads within the State, and when such rates are. in the opinion of either Commissions,
excessive or discriminatory, or are leviod or laid in violation of the Tnter-tstate Commerce
law, or in conflict with the rulings, orders or regulations of the Interstate Commerce Com-
Act Prohibiting Money Contributions. 193

mission, the Commission concerned may apply by petition to the Interstate Commerce
Commission for relief.
SUPERVISION OF GAS AND ELECTRICAL CORPORATIONS.
Each Commission within its jurisdiction is given general supervision of all persons and
corporations having authority to maintain wires and pipes along or under the streets of a
municipality for the purpose of furnishing or distributing gas, or of furnishing or trans-
mitting electricity for light, heat or power. The Commissions may ascertain the quality of
the gas supplied, examine the methods employed in manufacturing and supplying gas or
electricity for light, heat or power, and order such improvements as will best promote the
public interest, preserve the public health, and protect those using such gas or electricity.
The Commissions also mav fix the standard of illuminating power and purity of gas. not
less than that prescribed by law, to be manufactured or sold by persons, corporations or
municipalities for lighting, heating or power purposes; prescribe methods of regulation of
the electric supply system as to the use for incandescent lighting; fix the initial efficiency
of incandescent lamps furnished by the persons, corporations or municipalities generating
and selling electric current for lighting, and by order require the gas so manufactured or
sold to equal the standard so fixed by it, and, finally, establish the regulations as to
pressure at which gas shall be delivered. The Commissions are authorized to determine by
Investigation whether or not the gas sold is of the purity and quality required. The Com-
missions may require the corporations manufacturing gas and electricity to keep uniform
accounts. The Commission is to require every person and corporation under its supervision
to submit to it an annual report showing in detail (1) the amount of Its authorized capital
stock and the amount thereof issued and outstanding; (2) The amount of its authorized
bonded Indebtedness, and the amount of its bonds, and other forms of evidence of indebted-
ness issued and outstanding; (3) its receipts and expenditures during the preceding year;
(4) the amount paid as dividends upon its stock and as interest upon its bonds; (5l the name
of, and the amount paid as salary, to each officer, and the amount paid as w-ages to its
employees; (6) the location of its plant, or plants, and system, with a full description of its
property and franchises, stating in detail how each franchise stated to be owned was
acquired; and (7) such other facts pertaining to the operation and maintenance of the
plant and system, and the affairs of such person or corporation as may be required by
the Commission. Any corporation which shall neglect to make such a report is made liable
to a penalty of $100, and an additional penalty of .$100 for each day after the prescribed
time for which it shall neglect to file the same. Every municipality engaged in opei'ating
any works or systems for the manufacture and supplying of gas or electricity is to be
required to make an annual report to the Commission showing in detail (1) the amount of
its authorized bonded indebtedness, and the amount of its bonds and other forms of evidence
of indebtedness issued and outstanding for lighting purposes; (2) its receipts and expendi-
tures during the preceding year; (3i the amount paid as interest upon its bonds and upon
other forms of evidence of indebtedness; (4) the name of and the amount paid to each person
receiving a yearly or monthly salary, and the amount paid as wages to employees; (5) the
location of its plant and system, with a full description of the property; and (6) such other
facts pertaining to the operation and maintenance of the plant and system as may be
required by the Commission.
INSPECTION OF GAS AND ELECTRIC METERS.
Each Commission is to appoint inspectors , of gas and electric meters, who are to inspect-,
examine, prove and ascertain the accuracy or any and all gas meters used or intended to
be used for measuring, or ascertaining the quantity of illuminating or fuel gas or natural
gas furnished by any gas corporation to or for the use of any person, and any and all
electric meters used or intended to be used for measuring and ascertaining the quantity of
electric current furnished for light, heat and power by any electrical corporation to or for
the use of any person or persons. The law says that "No corporation or person shall
furnish or put in use any gas meter which shall not have been inspected, proved and
sealed, or any electric meter which shall not have been inspected, approved, stamped or
marked by an inspector of the Commission." The law also says that "No gas corporation
or electrical corporation incorporated under the laws of this or any other State shall begin
construction, or. exercise any right or privilege under any franchise hereafter granted, or
under any franchise heretofore granted, but not heretofore actually exercised, without first
having obtained the permission and approval of the proper Commission." The law further
says: "No municipality shall build, maintain and operate for other than municipal purposes
any works or system for the manufacture and supplving of gas or electricity for lighting
purposes without a certificate of authority granted by the Commission."
FROM CORPORATIONS FOR POLITICAL PURPOSES.
Be It enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of
America m Congress assembled. That it shall be unlawful for anv national bank, or any
corporation organized by authjority of any laws of Congress, to make a money contribution
In connection with any election to any political office. It shall also be unlawful for any
corporation whatever to make a money contribution in connection with any electioii at
which Presidential and Vice-Presidential electors, or a Representative In Congress, is to
be voted for. or any election by any State Legislature of a United States Senator. Every
corporation which shall make any contribution in violation of the foregoing provisions shall
De subject to a fine not exceeding .$5,000, and every officer or director of anv corporation
Who shall consent to any contribution by the corporation in violation of the foregoing pro-
visions shall, upon conviction, be punished by a fine of not exceeding $1,000 and not less
tnan $250 or by Imprisonment for a term of not more than one year, or both, such fine
and imprisonment in the discretion of the court.— Passed by CtonfrresfiJanitaj-i/, 26, 1907.
194 State Legislation in 1901 >
<Stau ILefiislatiou in 1907.
The following statement of the more important legislation effected by State Legisla-
tures in 1907 is a summary compiled, by permission, from the appendix to the address
of the Hon. Alton B. Parker, of New York, president of the American Bar Association,
at the annual meeting, held at Portland, Me.. August 26, 1907. Forty-four State and
Territorial Legislatures were in session during the yeax*.
Not only an unusually large number ef States held sessions during the past year,
but the bulk of legislation in each State is also decidedly greater. Contrasted with
the thin pamphlets, which several years ago contained all the laws enacted m many or
the States the volumes of the laws of 1907 appear massive, contammg m North Carolina
1.019 chapters, and in Maine 874 chapters covering 1,518 octavo pages. Of course in
States where such bulky legislation is found, the system ot special laws lor the
incorporation of companies and municipalities still prevails. , . . -
State Government and Elections.— The general unrest and desire for change
in political conditions is probably responsible for an agitation for alteration in State
constitutions. During the past year the Legislature of Connecticut adopted by resolution
an entirely new constitution which is to be submitted to the people of that State. Following
the mandate of the people of the State as expressed last year, the present Legislature
of Michigan provided for a convention to revise the constitution. No other States
have new constitutions, but the desire for change was seen in a large number of individual
amendments which were adopted by Legislatures this year and which are to be presented
to the people for ratification at the next elections. ^, ~
In most of the States the seat of government is permanently fixed. It was, therefore,
somewhat surprising to find in as old a State as California an act of the last Legislature
changing the capital from Sacramento to Berkeley, subject to the approval of the voters
of the State.
An example of the general distrust of persons connected with public service corpora-
tions, particularly railroad companies, was found in the action of the "Wisconsin Legisla-
ture in prohibiting district and city attorneys and judicial officers in that State from
being emploved by any common carrier.
The agitation for the improvement of civil service and the removal of offices
from the control of partisan influence is gradually spreading. Colorado provided for a civil
service commission, which is to classify offices, conduct examinations, and certify appoint-
ments to fill vacancies. The law applies quite generally to appointive State officers.
Lojti-islative Ilriljery.— The laws governing bribery were this year made applicable
to State officers and members of the Legislature by an act of Minnesota, which includes
In such bribery the receiving or agreeing to receive any promise or agreement Avhereby
his vote or action is to be influenced, and specifically prohibits the giving of a vote in any
manner in consideration that another member of the Legislature votes in a particular
manner either upon the same or another question.
The vocation of those persons who appear before Legislatures to advocate the
promotion or defeat of legislation was restricted in many ways. The registration of
all lobbyists, except those who appear only before committees, and the filing of expense
accounts by those registered, was required by Missouri. In Florida any member of a
committee may require that any person appearing before it state under oath the interest
which he represents and whether or not he has been paid or promised any fee for his
services. Idaho, Nebraska and South Dakota prohibited any person employed for the
purpose of influencing legislation to do so. except before the regular committees of the
Legislature, or a meeting of the Legislature itself, or by written or printed arguments
presented to such committees or to the Legislature.
A growing distrust of Legislatures evidenced itself in vai-ious directions. No member
of the Legislature under a new law of Idaho can be appointed during the term for
which he is elected to an office created by the Legislature of which he is a member.
This distrust is probably responsible for the movement in favor of the initiative and
the referendum. The Legislatures of Missouri and North Dakota adopted constitutional
amendments, subject to the ratification of the voters at the next general election,
covering these subjects.
An act in Montana carried out the recent constitutional amendment providing
for the initiative and referendum. Under this act a bill proposed by an initiative petition
is submitted directly to popular vote. The same would seem to be true under the proposed
amendment to the Missouri constitution.
Taxation and Finance.— In California an elaborate constitutional amendment
recognized the principle of the separation of State and local taxes, Imposed taxes upon
public service companies, insurance companies, banlcs and trust companies, and provided
that franchises shall be exclusively for the use of the State.
The modern recognition of the difficulty of this subject and the need for expert
assistance in the framing and administration of tax laws appeared in the creation of tax
commissions. Their duties in general are to supervise the assessment and collection of
taxes; to confer with the different local tax officers; to assess property of certain corpora-
tions which the law requires to be assessed as a unit by the State; to act as a State board
of equalization; to collect information relating to the subject of taxation, and to recom-
mend Improvements in the tax laws of the State. The year saw the creation of such
commissions in Alabama, Kansas and Minnesota. In North Carolina the Board of Cor-
poration Commissioners was also made a Board of Tax Commissioners with general
powers over taxation. In New Hampshire a tax commission of three persons for one
year was provided with the object of studying the question of taxation and reporting
thereon to the Legislature. North Carolina and Tennessee made a general revision
of their tax laws.
Railroad, express, sleeping car. teleph6ne, telegraph, and other similar companies were
as usual the subject of considerable tax legislation. A method whlcn has been in use for
a number of years is that of a percentage tax upon the gross earnings of such companies.
This plan was extended this year to freight line and sleeping car companies In Minnesota
and in Washington, to the taxation of private car companies and express companies.
Jn Kansas a new law taxed express companies a percentage on gross receipts In addition
State Legislation in 1907. 195
STATE LEGISLATION IN 19(»T— C^n/mwecZ,
to the regular tax on tangible property. Also the new general tax law of North Carolina
provided for what is called a privilege tax on railroads, express, telegraph and telephone
companies, which, in the case of railroads is a graduated tax per mile, depending on
the earnings, and in the case of the other companies, a percentage tax on the gross
receipts. The proposed amendment to the constitution of California subjects all public
service corporations to a tax upon the gross receipts at percentages fixed in the constitu-
tion. It also provides that the provision shall be self-executing, so that no laws are
needed to carry it into effect.
Another and more recent method of taxing these companies is by assessment by
some State board and by a tax on such assessment at the rate paid by the general
property in the State. The j-ear saw it applied to express companies by Massachusetts,
Iowa and New Hampshire, and to sleeping car. dining and parlor car companies by
New Hampshire. In North Carolina railroads, express, freight line, telephone, telegraph
and other similar companies are to be assessed by a State board, but the value of the
property is apportioned among the local units taxed at the local rates. The same^ method
was adopted by Washington in the case of railroad and telegraph companies, and by
South Dakota in the case of railroad companies. Under the Alabama act of 1007 the
tax commission assesses the value of the intangible property of public service corporations,
which are then taxed locally by the various units. Nebraska went still further in the
direction of local taxation by an act subjecting the property of railroad companies, union
depot companies, car companies and freight line companies, to assessment by the cities
and villages through which they run. A somewhat peculiar method of taxation is found
in Vermont and Florida; express companies in the former State being taxed eight dollars
per mile of route, and railroad companies, in the latter State, ten dollars per mile. In the
latter State the railroad companies are subject also to local taxation.
As illustrating the efforts made to secure taxation of the franchises of corporations,
we find during the year Alabama and Arkansas requiring a franchise tax froni foreign
corporations, based upon the amount of capital, and North Carolina providing for a
franchise tax on the capital of all corporations, together with an ad valorem assessment of
corporations by the State board with local taxation.
Income Tax. — The difficulties which surround the proper assessment of an income
tax have prevented its general adoption. The revision of the tax law of North Carolina
provided for such a tax, which is levied on all incomes in excess of one thousand dollars,
where the income is derived from property not taxed. The rate upon t-he excess over
the exemption is one per cent. In South Dakota the people will, at the next election, vote
on a constitutional amendment to cover this question.
Ttilieritance Tax.— The taxation of inheritances is becoming very general, and this
year laws provided for direct and collateral inheritance taxes in Massachusetts, Idaho, and
North Carolina, and for a collateral inheritance tax in Texas. The last Legislature of South
Dakota adopted a resolution for a constitutional amendment in this field.
Crimes and Misdemeanors. — Morality received considerable attention from the
Legislators of the year. The passage '^f laws like that of Montana regulating advertising,
the prohibition of bucket shops in Connecticut. Indiana, Iowa. Maine, Massachusetts,
Nebraska, Michigan. Pennsylvania and Texas, with the power to cities to prohibit this
species of gambling in Minnesota, the dealing in "futures" as prohibited in Alabama,
Georgia. South Carolina and Florida, the prohibition of pool-selling upon horse racing
in Tennessee and Arkansas, the prohibition of gambling in New Mexico and South
Dakota, and the prohibition of houses for opium smoking in Connecticut, all indicate
the careful supervision of the modern State over the morals of its citizens.
Pennsylvania and Illinois prohibited the use of the United States flag for advertising
purposes, and California punishes the unauthorized ■w*earing- of State or L^nited States
uniforrris.
Charities and Corrections.— The care of the insane has long been a recognized
function of the American State. That the obligation of the State is not postponed until
a person is insane in the strict sense of the term, but begins much earlier, was this
year seen in legislation like that of Minnesota, which provides a hospital farm for
inebriates, and in the law of Kansas, which provides that not only may guardians be
appointed for those who are Insane, but also for the feeble-minded, those addicted to
the use of drugs, and habitual drunkards. Maine, Oregon, and Rhode Island this year
followed the example of many States by the creation of schools for the feeble-minded.
Many laws relate to the child as a criminal and recognize that as such he is not to be
treated as an adult. As the latest expression of this principle of the treatment of the
youthful criminal, juvenile courts, either in the form of separate courts or in special
sessions of the regular criminal courts, were provided during the year in Alabama, Mis-
souri. Montana, Michigan, Oregon and Texas. As part of this movement for the
supervision of children a law of New York provided for a State probation commission,
which is to have general charge of the work of all probation officers.
That reformation of a convicted criminal is always possible is the theory upon which
rests laws of the past year like those of Arizona, Iowa and Washington, for indeter-
minate sentences, and for the suspension of sentence or parole of prisoners as provided In
Indiana, Kansas, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Illinois and Wisconsin.
A somewhat novel method of securing reformation of criminals is found in an act
of the Legislature of Michigan, where persons convicted of intoxication take a pledge
for a period not exceeding one j-ear, and during that time the judge may suspend the
sentence. If it appears at any time that the prisoner is not keeping the pledge the
sentence may then be executed.
In Indiana, however, the Legislature evidently believed that the time within which
reform in a prisoner may be expected is limited. An act provided that upon the third
conviction for a felony the criminal shall be deemed an habitual criminal and may be
Imprisoned for life.
Another application of this theory and of the importance of heredity appeared in a
law of the same State providing that upon the advice of two skilled physicians criminals
or imbeciles whose physical and mental condition is such as to render inadvisable the
196 State Legislation i7i 1907.

continuance of the type, an operation for the sterilization of such person may be per'
formed.
Initiative antl Referendimi. — The initiative and referendum are receiving con-
siderable attention both as applied to State and local affairs. It has long been customary
to refer certain laws for the government of municipalities to referendum vote of theii
inhabitants, and a number of acts of the year, like those adopting the commission
system of government and the new charter for Chicago, are not to talie effect until
thus voted on. The regular initiative and referendum as applied to local affairs,
including the right of the voters to frame and adopt ordinances independently of the
action of the council, and to i-equire that an act of the council be submitted to popular
vote before it becomes effective, are found in the new law of Montana and in the Iowa
and South Dakota acts for the commission system. Nearly all of the city charters adopted
by the California cities under the home rule provisions in that State provide for the
initiative .and referendum. Many of th<? same considerations which affect this method
of legislation as applied to State affairs affect also its operation in municipalities, but
of course the smaller the unit the belter will a system of purely democratic government
operate.
In 11)03 a feature of local government known as the "recall" was adopted for the
first time in this country for the City of Los Angeles. At the next session of the Cali-
fornia Legislature the system was adopted for other cities. During 1907 it was applied
to persons elected from wards under a new charter for cities of the second class in
Washington. In this charter, however, instead of the 25 per cent, of voters which is
sometimes required for the vacation of an office, three-fifths of the voters of a ward
luust petition for the recall of a member of the council. The Iowa commission plan
embodies this same idea upon a 2.5 per cent, petition of the voters. In each case a new
election is held to which the person who has been recalled is eligible for re-election. Six
of the city charters adopted in California by the cities themselves under the plan in
vogue in that State provide for the recall of city officers, the percentage necessary to
initiate a movement being 25 per cent, in four of the cities and 40 per cent, in the others.
Mnnieipal O^vnership. — Acts allowing cities to own and operate variotis forms
of public services are part of the movement for municipal ownership. While the legis-
lation does not indicate any general consensus of opinion as to the general success of this
principle, it shows legislative willingness to allow cities to undertake such projects if
they see fit, placing upon the municipality the burden of determining whether it is
profitable or not. There were a large number of acts of the past year which relate to
this subject, most of them covering the ordinary objects of municipal ownership, such
as water works, lighting plants, «S:c. The most important part of these was the Chicago
charter which allowed municipal ownership of all public utilities. Some noteworthy
extensions of the idea are found in acts of the Wisconsin Legislature which allow cities
of the first class (of which Milwaukee is the only example) to acquire and own railway
terminals and to lease them to railways desiring to enter the city. South Dakota pro-
vided for the municipal ownership of telephones. Limitations upon the tax rate of cities
have sometimes stood In the way of municipal ownership, but the Legislature of Wis-
consin attempted to get around this difficulty by providing for the purchase of public
utilities from the proceeds of certificates which are a lien only upon the property
purchased.
Edncation.— Compulsory education of children is becoming quite universal through-
out the country. During the past year Washington enacted a law which requires such
education between the ages of eight and fifteen, while the ages are fixed at nine and
fourteen in Oregon and at seven to, sixteen in Michigan. Compulsory education of Indian
children was also provided in a new law of South Dakota. Laws enacted during the year
in both Michigan and South Dakota require all deaf and blind cljildren to receive a certain
minimum education.
The low standard of salaries in the profession of teaching, and particularly among
the common schools is well known. As long as teachers can be obtained for the small
remuneration for which they are willing to serve in the lower schools it is perhaps too
much to expect that school boards will voluntarily increase the wages paid. Indiana this
year attempted to meet this in a measure by establishing a minimum salary for teachers
in lower schools. By the Legislature in the same State and in Illinois provision was
made for pensions for teachers in cities having over 100,000 population. In the former
State the maximum pension is $G00 a year, based upon a service of forty j-ears as a
teacher, while for a lesser service the pension is proportionately reduced. Rhode Island
this year passed a general act for pensioning teachers, based upon thirty-five years'
service, at one-half of the annual salary received during the last five years, with a
maximum of $l(X>.
Anti-Trust Larrs.— California, Indiana and North Dakota enacted general anti-
trust laws during the year. Each violation of the California law is considered a sep-
arate offense, and a penalty of a fine of not less than $50 nor more than $5,000, or
imprisonment for not less than six months nor more than one year, or both such fine
and imprisonment, are provided. It Is sufficient to prove that the defendant belonged
to the trust or acted with it, without proving that all the parties belonged to It or
proving any agreement among them. Perhaps the mo.=5t interesting provision is the one
that "the character of the trust or combination alleged may be established by proof .
of its general reputation as such." Persons injured in business by a trust may sue for
double damages.
The new Indiana statute Is not as elaborate as the California law, but includes in its
division of trusts any agreement or design to deny or refuse to any person or persons
full participation on equal terms with others in any telegraphic service transmitting
matter prepared or intended for public use.
The North Dakota law of this year was very similar to that of California. It
provided that no purchaser of any article from any individual or corporation violating
the act shall be liable for the price of such article, and may plead the act as a defense
to any suit for such price.
Some States are not content with general anti-trust lawsj but have selected par-
ticular combinations for destruction and prohibition. Among these enacted during the

STATE LEGISLATION IN 19Q1— Continued.
past year was one in Iowa prohibiting combinations for the sale of grain, and one in
Nebraska forbidding combinations between bridge contractors. Adjoining States find
dangers in combinations in very diverse subjects.
North Carolina enacted a law prohibiting various acts of combination or discrimina-
tion. The North Carolina act prohibits the injury of the business of a rival for the
purpose of fixing the price of a commodity, and makes it unlawful for any person or
corporation which controls 50 per cent, of an article within the State, to raise or lower
the price of an article for the purpose of driving opponents out of business, selling any
article at a place where there is competition at a lower price than is charged for the
same thing at any place without sufficient reason and with the intention of injuring
another's business.
Arkansas. Missouri, South Dakota, Minnesota and North Dakota passed laws aimed
at discrimination between different parts of the State by selling any commodity at a
lower rate in one place than is charged in another place, after due allowance is made
for difference in quality and in cost of transportation. Tennessee passed an act which
prohibits the selling at less than cost for the purpose of destroying competition.
An act of Tennessee, which apparently is intended to legalize contracts which might
otherwise be objectionable because of their monopolistic character is of considerable
interest. It provided that persons engaged in farming may make contracts with ware-
housemen and merchants whereby they agree to plant, cultivate and harv^est for a period
not exceeding three years any particular crop. Such persons may appoint the persons
v/ith whom they contract as their agents and may invest such agents with authority to
determine when and at what price the farm products shall be sold, and provide that
such farm products shall not be sold by the owner independently.
Corporations.— The Legislature of Texas, which was prolific in new ideas for
the regulation of various subjects, evidently did not believe in the existence of treasury
stock, as it required that in all corporations 50 per cent, must be paid in before the
corporation can do business, and the remainder within two years under penalty of
forfeiture of the charter. Provision was. however, made for reduction of the capital
stock if the remainder cannot be obtained within the time limited.
The very common use of preferred stock was recognized by a law of 1907 of
California, but the ordinary use of this stock as merely another form of security will
be largely prevented by a provision of the act which prohibits any distinction between
the classes of stock as to voting power.
One of the troublesome features of the ordinary corporation has been the position of
*il® mmority stockholder, who has his money invested, but is unable to exercise any
ettective control over the affairs of the corporation. Indiana tried to remedy the situa-
tion somewhat_ by providing that minority stockholders who vote against a change in
the articles of incorporation may compel the corporation to purchase their stock at a figure
named by appraisers. Under a new law of Tennessee the minority stockholders, in case'
ot a sf.le of the corporate property, may require that their stock be valued and

^ + In Minnesota a law was passed restricting, in accordance with the net value of the
outstanding policies, the surplus which any company can accumulate. Very similar laws
were also enacted by Montana and North Dakota.
A ^T^"il^^^ '1^*^. insurance policy forms were provided by the Legislatures of Minnesota
ana North Dakota. Certain matters were prohibited, such as special limitations for
actions upon the policies, for forfeitures and for settlements. Such requirements are
found in the laws of Illinois. Colorado, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Tennessee. Special
acts which provided that the policy must contain the whole contract were passed this

policy was made a misdemeanor by Maine. Arizona and Kansas provided that the mis-
representation in securing a policy shall not render it void unless the subject of such
representations contributed to the contingency which made the policy payable.
A provision which is found in a great number of the laws in almost precisely the
same form is that which makes the agent who secures a policy the agent of the company
and not that of the insured. Laws to this effect were enacted this year in Indiana,
Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, North Carolina, North Dakota, West
Virginia, New Jersey, Tennessee and Michigan. Under new laws of Wisconsin and
Tennessee corporations are not allowed to act as agents for insurance companies.
An unusual step was taken by the Legislature of Massachusetts in allowing savings
banks to establish life insurance departments. These departments are to be conducted
separately from the savings departments and the assets of the latter are not applicable to
the payment of death claims.
Railronds. — Railroad commissions have been growing in favor during recent years,
and may be considered as the accepted method of dealing with these corporations. During
1907 commissions for the regulation of railways were created in Alabama. Colorado, Mon-
tana. Nebraska, Pennsylvania, Vermont. New Jersey, Oregon and Michigan, while very
substantial revisions were made in the laws for commissions in Indiana, New York and
Georgia.
The typical Railway Commission law, as Is found in the legislation of the past year,
followed to a very considerable extent the Interstate Commerce law with its various
amendments. Public schedules or rates are required, deviation from schedules is pro-
hibited, rebates and discriminations between shippers are punished, and general super-
visory power over the railroads is given to the commissions. With these general resem-
blances, certain points have been noted of particular importance, wherein the laws differ.
Elective commissions are provided in Alabama, Colorado, Montana, Oregon, Georgia
and Nebraska, while in the otxier States the commissioners are appointed by the Governor.
Power to regulate rates either upon complaint or hearing or after an investigation upon
the commissions' own motion, is found in all laws just referred to except New Jersey
and Pennsylvania. In Montana and Nebraska, not only may the commissions act upon
complaint, but they are required as soon as possible, to make and put into effect a general
schedule of i-ates for the railways of the State.
Power over the classification of freight was given the commission in Alabama, Oregon,
Michigan and Indiana, while the mandatory provision of the laws of Montana and
Nebraska, relating to the making of rates, also apply to the question of classification.
Service furnished by the railroad companies may be regulated under the new laws of
Alabama, Colorado, New Jersey, Oregon, Michigan, Indiana and New York. A peculiar
provision in the law of Michigan allows fifty freeholders of any municipality, to petition
the commission for better railroad facilities and allows the commission, after a hearing,
to order the company to furnish the facilities required.
Nearly all of the laws creating railway commissions provide for a review of their
decisions by the courts. In Colorado, Vermont and New Jersey, this review is by an
appeal from the decision of the commission. The usual figure at which passenger rates ,
were fixed by State laws during this year Is two cents a mile. Laws so fi.xing passenger
rates on all railways within the States were passed by the Legislatures of Indiana, Minne-
sota, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Illinois, and similar laws applicable to
all of the larger roads in tlie States were passed in Iowa. Missouri. Wisconsin and Tennessee.
A rate of two and a quarter cents a mile was enacted in North Carolina, and of two
and a half cents a mile in North Dakota and South Dakota. In Kansas the rate was fixed
at three cents a mile. One of the most noteworthy of these laws was that of Wisconsin,
where the commission had previously carried on an investigation of passenger rates and
had ordered a reduction in such rates upon the principal roads from three cents to two
and a half cents a mile. This reduction had been acquiesced in by the railroad companies,
which were also selling five hundred mile family mileage books at two cents a mtle. _ Bills
for a two cent rate on all the principal roads were twice defeated by decisive votes in the
Senate, but in the closing days of the session the matter was reconsidered and the two
cent bill became a law. In this connection the veto of the two cent fare bill in New-
York State may also be noted.
Passes or reduced rate transportation, except to various persons connected with the
railroad companies, are being very generally prohibited throughout the country. Laws of
this nature were enacted this year in Alabama, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska,
Vermont, Texas, South Dakota, New York, Oregon, Michigan and Indiana.
Freight rates were the subject of as much legislation in 1907 as passenger rates.
Alabama made a general classification both of railroads and of commodities and fixed
a maximum rate on a mileage basis for the various classes. Rates on grain were fixed
by the Legislature of Kansas, and upon coal by the Legislature of North Dakota, and
Nebraska and Mlnn^ota have enacted laws fixing the maximum freight rate upon various
commodities.
The vast increase in the business of railroads during the last two years, together
with the failure and inability of the railroad companies to procure enough cars for the
handling of freight, has caused considerable dissatisfaction among shippers. There have
undoubtedly been great delays, both in the furnishing of cars to shippers and in the
movement of the freight after shipment. Such delay is probably sometimes the fault of
the railway and sometimes due to a mere physical inability to procure necessary cars
as wanted. The Alabama law of 1007 allows the act of God, accident or strike as
( xcuses for delay. The Indiana act provides that the penalty cannot be enforced if the
carrier shows that it did not have the cars under control at the time they were required
for delivery, and that for a reasonable time prior to the failure and at the time of the
failure, it had made a reasonable effort to supply its line with the necessary car
equipment to care for the traffic then on its line and such future traffic as it could
reasonably anticipate would be offered for shipment. The Kansas proviso is that accident
State Legislation in 1907, 199
STATE LEGISLATION IN 1901— Continued.
or unavoidable cause, which could not, by the use of the usual foi-esight and diligence,
be avoided, will operate as a sufficient excuse. The Minnesota act excepts from the
delay time during- strikes, public calamities, accidents, or any cause not in the power of
the railroad company to prevent. In Vermont the railroad company is excused from
furnishing cars if the failure is caused solely by shortage of rolling stock when it. has
com-^lied with the orders of the commission relating to equipment. The act of Wash-
ington enumerates as excuses accidents, sudden congestion of traffic, unavoidable deten-
tion or other cause not within the power of the railroad company to prevent. In South
Dakota accident or any cause not within the power of the railroad company to prevent
are sufficient excuses. Under the law of Oregon upon this subject failure to furnish the
cars caused by public calamity, strikes, washouts, acts of God, the public enemy, mobs,
riots, wrecks, fires or accidents is excused. Lack of sufficient equipment or facilities is
not an excuse except during such times as the railroad commission may suspend that
portion of the act. LTnder the reciprocal demurrage laws of Missouri, North Carolina and
North Dakota the penalty is imposed whenever the cars are not furnished on request.
Another feature of- nearly all of these reciprocal demurrage laws is the i-equirement
that freight once loaded be moved at a certain minimum rate, usvially fifty miles a day.
The causes which will excuse failure to furnish cars when requested by the shipper also
ordinarily excuse the failure to move freight at the specified rate. These same causes
usually also excuse the shipper for failure to unload promptly.
The block system, at present under the investigation of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, is a subject upon which no action has been attempted by Congress. Laws
of the past year in Minnesota and North Carolina allow the railroad eommissions of those
States to require the putting in of this system on all lines of railway. The same is the
result of a new law of Indiana which begins by requiring the block system on roads
earning over $7,500 per mile, and ends by allowing the commission to relieve the roads
from the operation of the act where compliance is deemed unnecessary.
Some of the States legislated regarding movements of trains. In Iowa a law of this
year allows the commission to prescribe the speed of trains carrying live stock, while in
Kansas a new law provides that such trains must run at least fifteen miles an hour.
In Idaho and North Dakota new laws require that trains which ai'e behind time be
bulletined.
Public Service Companies. — The movement toward legislation of railroads,
which is still in full force in this country, is now being accompanied by a somewhat
similar movement for the regulation of other public service corporations. The problem
of the corporations which furnish transportation, heat, light, water or telephone service
not only to inhabitants of a single municipality but to many suburban and rural districts.
Is one of increasing importance. Such regulation as has heretofore been attempted has
been largely through the medium of the municipal officers at the time of the granting
of the franchise. This year has seen an attempt to meet the problem fi-om the point
of view of State regulation. Two notable efforts in this direction were the laws known as
the Public Service Commissions law of New York and the Public Utility law of Wis-
consin. *
A tendency opposite to that shown by New York and Wisconsin appeared in a new
law of Missouri allowing municipalities to fix rates for public service corporations, such
rates to be subject to review by the courts. A law of the year in Pennsylvania also
tended in the same direction by allowing municipalities to contract with public service
corporations.
A number of the i-ailway commission laws enacted during the year bring express
companies within the control of the commissions. In Nebraska the Legislature made a
general cut of 25 per cent, in freight rates, while the last Legislature of Florida pre-
scribed the rates which could be charged for five-pound packages.
Telephone companies were regulated by the Public Utility law of Wisconsin. In South
Dakota a separate boai-d of telephone commissioners was created. This has general
supervision over telephones in the State and may fix maximum rates. It may also upon
application of any telephone company order a connection between lines of that company
and another company, if pubi';o service demands such connection, and the lines of the
applicant are in proper condition. In North Carolina the jurisdiction of the Board of
Coi'poration Commissioners was extended over telephone companies.
Gas companies were regulated both under the New York and Wisconsin Public Utility
laws. In Indiana a law regulated contracts made with gas companies in cities having
a population of 100,000 or over by providing a standard for the gas and fixing a maxi-
mum rate of sixty cents per thousand cubic feet. This law has already resulted in legal
contests and probably will Ve the source of considerable litigation.
Laws of the year in Wisconsin applicable to all public service corporations, except
telephone companies, and in Iowa applicable to all corporations require a corporation to
receive actual value in money for its stock and bonds, or if property is taken in
exchange, that a board or commission pass upon the value of such property. The same
idea is found in the new Railroad Commission act of Vermont, which allows that com-
mission to pass upon the value of preperty"" acquired in railroad consolidations. Under
the New York Public Service Commissions law all corporations governed by it cannot
issue stock, bonds or evidence of indebtedness without securing from the proper com-
mission an order authorizing the issue and stating that in the opinion of the commission
the use of the capital to be secured by such issue is reasonably required for the purposes
of the corporation. In Pennsylvania a new law allows the railroad commission to investi-
gate all stocks and bonds issued by any common carrier.
Pnblic Healtli and Safety. — General acts concerning adulteration and mis-
branding of foods and drugs which follow in their main aspects the Federal law on this
subject were enacted in California. Colorado, Indiana, Kansas. Maine, Missouri.
Nebraska, New Hampshire. North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Washington,
Illinois, New Jersey, Tennessee, Connecticut, South Dakota, Arkansas, Georgia and
Oregon. Iowa enacted a series of laws for the same object, while in Minnesota three
separate acts covered the labelling of food, the sale of unwholesome articles and ice
cream. In Illinois a State food department was created and In South Dakota a dairy
and food department was organized. These departments have under their supervision all
200 State Legislation in 1907.
STATE LEGISLATION IN IQ^yj— Continued. ~ ""
the administration of Pure Food laws and are similar to those which have existed
for a number of years in some of the States.
Drugs are very generally regulated by the same laws which regulate pure food. In
Indiana a law of the year prohibits the distribution of samples of drugs or the giving
of them to persons under sixteen years of age, while a new law of Iowa prohibited the
distribution of such samples on porches, lawns, etc.
Milk received some special consideration from the Legislatures in regard to its purity,
use of chemicals for preservation, and the cleansing of utensils in which it is contained.
Water supplies, partictflarly in the cities, are in great danger of contamination. It
is frequently necessary for a city to go to a considerable distance in order to obtain a
sufficient water supply, so that State regulation becomes essential to ensure its purity.
This matter was placed under the control of the State Board of Health by the Legislature
of Kansas. All cities or corporations supplying water to the public are required to file
with the board copies of their plans and receive a written permit before the source of
supply can be used. The discharge of sewage is also placed under control of the Board
of Health. Under a new law of South Carolina every water company or municipality
controlling its water supply shall have an analysis of its water at least every three
inonths. In New Jersey a law allows the water boards in cities deriving their water
from sources beyond the city limits to construct and maintain drains and sewers in such
territory under the supervision of the State sewage commission. The same Legislature
provided for a State water supply commission to consist of five persons to be appointed
by the Governor. This commission has general supervision of the source of water supply
and is required to examine and approve plans of municipalities and water companies
for the supply of water.
Poisons have always been under considerable State supervision, but an increasing
use of certain drugs seems to demand a further restriction upon their sale. North Carolina
carefully regulated the sale of narcotics, while, in South Carolina and New York the
Lt'gislatures this year regulated the sale of cocaine. Cigarettes were once characterized by
the Supreme Court of Tennessee as "inherently bad and bad only." The Supreme Court
of the United States refused to take judicial notice of any special injury resulting from
their use or to indorse the opinion of the Supreme Court of Tennessee just quoted. The
Legislatures of iy07 seem to agree with the Supreme Court of Tennessee rather X\i&n
with the Supreme Court of the United States, as the sale of cigarettes was forbidden in
Minnesota, Washington, Florida, South Dakota and Illinois, although the act in the last
State was held unconstitutional by one of the lower courts. The use of cigarettes by minors
in public places was prohibited in South Dakota; the use of tobacco by any person under
eighteen or by any minor pupil of a school or college was forbidden in Minnesota, and
smoking by persons under sixteen years in public places was made a misdemeanor in
Wisconsin.
Tuberculosis is now being generally recognized as a disease which can be cured
if proper steps are taken in time. The necessity for special treatment of this disease
and the inability of the persons most susceptible to it to secure such treatment has
resulted in the establishment of special hospitals. During the past year Indiana, Missouri,
and North Carolina provided for hospitals for its treatment. Pennsylvania also provided
for the establishment of colonies and in Massachusetts three sanitariums are to be built.
Another side of the question appeared in a new law of New Jersey which prohibited the
establishment of hospitals for the treatment of tuberculosis without securing the
consent of the municipality. The prevention of the spread of this disease is apparently
sought by laws passed in California and Tennessee forbidding expectoration.
Uocal Option. — This temperance movement has taken various forms. North
Dakota this year enacted a law prohibiting the soliciting of orders for liquors, and for a
temperance commissioner, whose duty it shall be to see to the enforcement of the liquor
laws. In Texas a tax of $r>.000 upon each office of a carrier accepting C. O. D. shipments
of liquor was imposed. This tax is evidently for the purpose of destroying interstate
shipments. In West Virginia the Legislature provided that no liquor can be drunk on
cars, except on regular diners and buffet cars.
Local option in various forms appeared in the laws of this year In a number of
Statos. In Alabama county option is allowed; in Colorado and Illinois the voters of any
political subdivision may prohibit the sale of liquor within its limits; in Wisconsin
special anti-saloon districts, composed of residence territory, may be oiganized by
petition, and the sale of liquor therein prohibited.
During the past year both Alabama and South Carolina provided for county option
upon the question of the sale of liquor at dispensaries within the county. Georgia
passed a strict prohibitory law. '
Roads. — One of the noticeable features of road legislation of the year was the
tendency toward entrusting the road work to the larger units. In many cases the State
is taking hold of the road problem, either by the creation of State roads or by State
supervision of the subject. In California the Legislature created a State department of
engineering, among whose duties are the supervision of road work, while at the same
time Missouri provided for a State highway engineer. In Idaho and Vermont a State
highway commission was created. West Virginia provided for a State highway inspector
and Tennessee for a State highway commissioner. Direct aid in the building of roads
was provided for by Maine, Missouri, and Washington, and the Wisconsin Legislature
submitted to the voters the question of amending the constitution so as to allow State
aid in building roads.
Labor. — Direct restriction of the hours of labor of women was attempted in a
number of States, although the recent decision of the New York Court of Appeals
declaring unconstitutional the laws of that State forbidding the employment of women
in factories after nine o'clock at night, caused some doubt as to the constitutionality
of general restrictions. During the year New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Oregon enacted
laws limiting the number of hours per day or week which women may work, and South
Carolina restricted their hours of work in woollen mills.
Child labor has received great attention during recent years, and there now exists
a national association for the purpose of securing State legislation upon this subject.
The state of public feeling was also indicated by the general discussion over the power

o_f Congress to legislate upon the matter. The laws upon this subject passed during
the year were very numerous, and a detailed consideration of their provisions would serve
no particular purpose. A very usual provision is the requirement of a permit from certain
officers before children under sixteen are allowed to be employed. This permit is usually
based upon certain proofs of age and requirements as to education and school attendance.
Labor of such children in various dangerous occupations is forbidden. The minimum age
at which employment by permit is allowed is twelve in some States and fourteen in
others. New laws on this subject or laws making substantial changes in the previous
laws were passed this year in Alabama, California, Idaho. Maine. Minnesota, Montana,
Nebraska, Washington, Wisconsin, Florida, Georgia, and New York.
Divorce. — Divorce has received the attention of those interested in uniform legis-
lation. The scandal which has resulted from the great diversity of marriage laws, and
the confusion which followed the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States,
resulted in the calling of a conference by Governor Pennypacker, of Pennsylvania. This
met at Washington in February, 1906. at which forty States, the District of Columbia,
and the Territory of New Mexico were represented. A draft of a proposed uniform
divorce law was considered, and at an adjourned meeting of this conference held at
Philadelphia in November. 1906, the final draft was submitted for adoption by the
Legislatures. The act proposed has been adopted this j'ear in Delaware and New Jersey.
It covers the causes of an annulment of divorce and the establishment of limited
and absolute divorce, the adoption of • uniform rule governing the acquiring of jurisdiction,
and a like rule covering the subject of the faith and credit to be given decrees of
divorce obtained in other States. Causes for annulment recommended are impotency,
consanguinity and affinity, existing marriage, fraud, force, or coercion, insanity unknown
to the other party, marriage where the wife was under sixteen or the husband under
eighteen, unless confirmed after arriving at such age. The causes of divorce a vinculo
are adultery, bigamy, conviction of certain crimes, extreme cruelty, wilful desertion for
two years, and habitual drunkenness. Causes for divorce a mensa are adultery, extreme
cruelty, wilful desertion for two years, hopeless insanity of husband, and habitual
drunkenness. The congress, however, recommended that no additional cause be recognized
in any State. The question of jurisdiction is made to depend upon a two years' residence
in the State where the divorce is sought, except that in case of adultery or bigamy
residence at the time the cause of action arose is sufficient. Where the cause of action
arose in another State in which the party resided at the time, such cause must have
been recognized a.s a ground for divorce in such other State. If the defendant is a
non-resident, jurisdiction may be acquired by publication, followed, where practicable,
by notice to the defendant. Full faith and credit is to be given to decrees in courts of
competent jurisdiction in other States where the jurisdiction was obtained in substantial
conformity to the act. except that if any person goes into another State to obtain a
divorce for a cause which occurred while the parties resided in the first State, or for a.
cause not ground for divorce under the laws of that State, the divorce is to have no
effect. An absolute decree is not to be entered until one year after the decree nisi.
Some of the States made slight modifications of their divorce laws during the year.
In Iowa the marriage of divorced persons within a year was prohibited, except that the
persons divorced may re-marry. An additional ground for divorce, and one not recom-
mended by the congress on divorce legislation, was provided in Maine, namely, commit-
ment to the State Asylum for the Insane for fifteen consecutive years prior to the suit,
where the insanity is found to be incurable. The Legislature of South Dakota attempted
to extend the period of residence required for divorce to one year, but this was made
subject to referendum petition and must be approved by the Voters at the election of
1908 before it can go into effect.
Mi.scellaneons.— In Illinois and Michigan all tickets to theatres or other places
of public entertainrnent must have the price printed thereon, and the sale of the same
either by the proprietors or other persons at an excess price is made a misdemeanor.
It is understood that the enforcement of the law is being contested by the theatres In
Chicago.
Memorial Day received attention from the Legislatures in acts restricting sports on
that day. These are entirely prohibited in Kansas, before 3 P. M. in Iowa and between
10 A. M. and 3 P. M. and within half a mile of the exercises in Minnesota, while South
Dakota provided that city councils and school boards may appropriate money for Memorial
Day exercises.
The Legislatures of California. Kansas, and Oregon attempted to stimulate pat-riotism
by providing that the United States flag must fly over all schools during school hours.
Idaho and Pennsylvania adopted State flags.
In Wisconsin members of the National Guard were protected by a law v.-hich punishes
any person who deprives a member of the Guard of employment or prevents his being
employed, or who dissuades any person from enlisting in the Guard by threat of injury.
Sunday as a day of rest was assured by a new law of Oregon, while an act in Massa-
chusetts provided that no person shall be requifed to worjt on Sunday unless he is allowed
twenty-four hours' consecutive rest during the next six days. The Legislatui-e of Indiana
required barber shops to be closed on Sunday.
The great vogue of the magazine article which exposes corruption, and the injustice
which may be done persons perfectly innocent because of hasty and inaccurate statements
in those publications, is probably responsible for an act in New York, which required that,
after July 1. 1007. every newspaper and magazine published in the State should publish
in every copy upon the cover or at the head of the editorial page the full name and
address of the owner or proprietor of such publication, or if it is owned and published by
a corporation, the name of the corporation, the address of its principal place of business,
together with full names and addresses of the president, secretary, and treasurer, or if
published by a partnership or a joint stock association, then the fiill name and addresses
of the partners or officers and managers of the association.
L^^nder a new law of Kansas news agencies must furnish to all daily papers news
service, when demanded by such papers, and no telegraph or telephone company is to allow
the use of its wires to any agency which so refuses. '

206 Patent Office Procedure.
patent (B^tt yrocttrure,
Thk following statement has been revised by thePateutOffice forTHK World Almanac for 1908:
Patents are issued in the name of the United States, and under the seal of the Patent Oftice, to
any pei-sou who has invented or discovered any new and useful art, machine, manufacture, or com-
position of matter or any new and useful improvement thereof, or any new original and ornamental
design for an article of manufacture, not Ivuown or used by othere in this country before his invention
or discovery thereof, and not patented or described in any printed publication "in this or any foreign
country, liefore his invention or discovery thereof or more than two years prior to his application,
and not in public use or on sale in the United States for more than two years prior to his application,
unless the same is proved to have been abandoned; upon payment of the fees required bylaw and
other due proceedings had.
Every patent contains a grrant to the patentee, his heirs or assigns, for the term of seventeen years,
except in the case of design patents, of tlie exclusive right to make, use, and vend the invention or
discovery throughout the United States and the Territories, referring to the specification for the par-
ticulars thereof.
If it appear that the inventor, at the time of making his application, believed himself to be the
first inventor or discoverer, a patent will not be refused on account of the invention or discovery, or
any part thereof, having been known or used in any foreign qpuntrj" before his invention or discovery
thereof, if it had not been before patented or described in any printed publication.
Joint inventors are entitled to a joint patent; neither can claim one separately. Independent in-
ventors of distinct and independent improvements in the same machine cannot obtain a joint patent
for their separate inventions; nor does tlie fact that one furnishes the capital and another makes the
invention entitle them to make application as joint inventors; but in such case they may become joint
patentees.
No person otherwise entitled thereto will be debarred from receiving a patent for his invention or
discovery, by reason of its having been first patented or caused to be patented by the inventor or his
legal representatives or assigns in a foreign country, unless* the application for said foreign patent was
filed more than twelve months prior to the filing of the application in this country, and four months
in cases of designs, in which case uo patent shall be granted in this country.
APPLICATIONS.
Applications for a patent must be made in writing to the Commissioner of Patents. The applicant
must also tile in the Patent Office a written description of the invention or discovery, and of the
manner and process of making, constructing, compounding, and using it, in such full, clear, concise,
and exact terms as to enable any person skilled in the art or science to which it appertains, or with
which it is most nearly connected, to make, construct, compound, and use the saiue; and in case of a
machine, he must e.xplaiu the principle thereof, and the best mode in which he has contemplated
appl.ving that principle, so as to distinguish it from other inventions, and particularly point out and
disti'uctl.v claim the part, improvement, or combination which he claims as his invention or discovery.
The specification and claim must be signed by the inventor and attested by two witnesses.
When the nature of the case admits of drawings, the applicant must furnish a drawing of the re-
quired size, signed by the inventor or his attorne.v in fact, and attested by two witnesses. In all cases
which admit of representation by model, the applicant, if required by the Patent Office, shall furnish
a naodel of convenient size to exhibit advantageously the several parts of his invention or discovery.
The applicant shall make oath that he verily believes himself to be the original and first inventor
or discoverer of the art, inachine, manufacture, composition, or improvement for which he solicits a
patent; that he does not know and does not believe that the same was ever before known or used, and
shall state of what country he is a citizen and where he resides, and whether he is the sole or joint
inventor of the invention claimed in his application. In every original application the applicant
must distinctly state under oath t^jat the invention has not been patented to himself or to others
with his knowledge or consent in this or an.v foreign country for more than two years prior to
his application, or on an application for a patent filed in any foreign country by himself or his legal
representatives or assigns more than twelve months prior to his application in this country, or four
months in cases of designs. If anj' application for patent has been filed in any foreign country by the
applicant in this country or by his legal representatives or assigns, prior to his application in this
country, he shall state the country or countries in which such application has been filed, giving the
dateof such application, and shall also state that no application has been filed in any other country
or countries than those mentioned ; that to the best of his knowledge and belief the inveution has not
been in public use or on sale in the United States nor described in any printed publication or patent in
this or any foreign country for more than two years prior to his application in this countr.v. Such
oath may be made before any person within the United States authorized by law to administer oaths,
or, wheii the applicant resides in a foreign country, before any minister, charge d'affaires, consul, or
commercial agent holding commission under the Government of the Unitetf States, or before any
notary public, judge or magistrate having an official seal and authorized to administer oaths in that
country whose authority shall be proved by a certificate of a diplomatic or consular officer of the
United States, except that no acknowledgment maybe taken by any attorney appearing in the case. -
On the filing of such application and the payment of the fees required by law, if, on exami-
nation, it appears that the applicant is justly entitled to a patent under the law, and that the same is
sufficiently useful and important, the Commissioner will issue a patent therefor.
Every patent or any interest therein shall be assignable in law by an instrument in writing; and the
patentee or his assigns or legal representatives may, in like manner, grant aud convey au exclusive
right under his patent to the whole or any specified part of the United States.
' REISSUES.
A reissue is granted to the original patentee, his legal representatives, or the assignees of the entire
interest when, by reason of a defective or insufficient specification, or b.v reason of the patentee claim-
ing as his invention or discovery more than he had a right to claim as new, the original patent is inop-
erative or invalid, provided the error has arisen from inadvertence, accident, or mistake, and without
any fraudulent or deceptive intention. Reissue applications must be made aud the specifications
sworn to by the inventors, if they be living.
CAVEATS.
A caveat, under the patent law, is a notice given to the office of the caveator's claim as Inventor,
in order to prevent the grant of a patent to another for the same alleged invention upon an applicatioa
filed during the life of a caveat without notice to the caveator.
Anj' person who has made a new invention or discovery, and desires further time to mature the
same, may, ou payment of a fee of ten dollars, file iu the Patent Office a caveat setting forth the
Patent Office Procedure.

object and the distinguishing characteristics of the invention, and prayini^ protection of bis right until
he shall have matured his invention. Sucla caveat shall be filed in the confidential archives of the
oliice and preserved in secrecy, and shall be operative for the term of one year from the filing
thereof. The caveat may be renewed, on request in writing, by the payment of a second fe« of ten
dollars, and it -^-ill continue in force for one year from the payment of such second fee.
The caveat must comiirise a specification, oath, and, when the nature of the CJise admits of it, a
drawing, and, like the application, must be limited to a single iuveutiou or improvement.

Sani'tcti <Statcs i5.vccuttt)c (tiiyil .Scrbice.
(Revised for this issue of The World Almanao by the Secretary of the Civil Service Commission.)
The purpose of the Civil Service act, as declared in its title, is "to regulate and improve the Civil
Service of the United States." It provides for the appointment of three Commissioners, a chief Examiner,
a Secretary, and otlier employes, and makes it the duty of the Commissioners to aid the President as
he may request in preparing suitable rules for carrying the act into effect; to make repulations to govern
all examinations held under the provisions of the act, and to make investigations and report upon all
matters touching the enforcement and effect of the rules and regulations. The address of the Commis-
sion is Washington, D. 0.
PR0VIS90NS OF THE RULES.
The act requires the rules to provide, as nearly as the conditions of good administration will
warrant, for open competitive practical examinations for testing the fitness of applicants for the classi-
fied service: for the tilling of all vacancies by selections from among those graded highest: for the
apportionment of appointments at Washington among tlie States upon the basis of population: for a
period of probation betora absolute appointmdut; that no person in the public service shall be o))liged
to contribute service or money for political purposes ; and that no person in said service has any right
to use his official authority or influence to coerce the political action of any person or body.
EXTENT OF THE SERVICE.
There are about 327,000 positions in the Executive Civil Service, over half of which, or 184,178, are
subject to competitive examination. The expenditure for salaries in the Executive Civil Service is over
$200,000,000 a year. The Civil Service act does not require the classitication of persons appointed by
the President and confirmed by the Senate or of persons employed merely as laborers or workmen.
Many positions are excdpted in part from the provisions of the rules for various ressons, the largest
single class being those of fourth-class postmasters, of which there were 60,592 on January 1, 1906.
APPLSCATIONS.
Persons seeking to be examined must file an application blank. The blank for the Departmental
Service at Washington, Railway Mail Service, the Indian School Service, and the Government Printing
Service should be requested directly of the Civil Service Commission at Washington. The blank for
tne Customs, Postal, or Internal Revenue Service should be requested of the Civil Service Board of
Examiners at the office where service is sought.
Applicants for examination must be citizens of the United States, and of the proper age. No per-
son using intoxicating liquors to excess may be appointed. No discrimination is made on account of
sex, color, or political or religious opinions. The limitations of age vary with the different services, but
do not apply to any person honorably discharged from the military or naval service of the United States
by reason of disability resulting from wounds or sickness incurred in the line of duty.
EXAMINATIONS.
The examinations are open to all persons qualified in respect to age, citizenship, legal residence,
character, and health. During the fiscal year ended Juno 30, 1907, 115,706 persons were examined, 90,301
passed, and 38,541 were appointed. Of those appointed, 9, 150 were rural letter-carriers. In addition
to these, mechanics and workmen at navy yards are appointed on registration tests of fitness given by a
board of labor employment at each yard. During the year, 20 6.58 applications were made; 20,435 were
registered, and 10,495 were appointed. Nearly seven hundred different kinds of examinations were held,
each one of which involved different tests. Two hundred and forty-eight of these examinations con-
tained educational tests, the others being for mechanical trades or skilled occupations and consisting
of certificates of employers or fellow-workmen. Examinations are held twice a year in each State and
Territory, the places and dates being publicly announced.
APPOINTMENTS.
In case of a vacancy not filled by promotion, reduction, transfer, or reinstatement, the highest three
of the sex called for on the appropriate register are certified for appointment, the apportionment being
considered in appointments at Washington. In the absence of eligibles, or when the work is of short
duration, temporary appointments, without examination, are permitted. The number of women apply-
ing for ordinary clerical places is greatly in excess of the cnUs of appointing officers. The chances of
appointment are good for teachers, matrons, seamstresses, and physioiaiis in the Indian Service, for
male stenographers and typewriters, draughtsmen, patent examiners, civil, mechanical, and ciootrioni
engineers, and for technical and scientific experts.
PREFERENCE CLAIMANTS.
Persons who served in the military or naval service of the United States, and were discharged by
reason of disabilities resulting from wounds or sickness incurred in the line of duty, are, under the Civil
Service rules, given certain preferences. They are released from all maximum age limitations, are
eligible for appointment at a grade of 65, while all others are obliged to obtain a grade of 70. and are
certified to appointing officers before all others. Subject to the other conditions of the rules, a veteran
of the rebellion or of the war with Spain, or the widow of any such person, or any army nurse of either
war, may be reinstated without regard to the length of time he or she has been separated from the
service.
INSULAR POSSESSIONS.
Examinations are also held for positions in the Philippines, Porto Rico, and Hawaii, and also for the
Isthmian Canal service.
THE UNCLASSIFIED SsiRViCE.
Under an executive order unclassified laborers are appointed after open, competitive examination
upon their physical condition. This action is outside the Oivil Service act.

arraneement was the foundation of the (^olumbus Memorial Library. The Iniernational Bureau cor-
responds, through the diplomatic representatives of the several governments in Washington, with the
executive departments'of these governments, and is required to furnish such information as it possesses
or can obtain to any of the Republics making requests. It isthe custodianof the archives of the Inter-
national American Conferences, and is especially charged with the performance of duties imposed upon
it by these conferences The International Bureau is sustained by contributions from the American
Republics In proportion to their population, and is governed by a board composed of the diplomatic
representatives at Washington from the several countries composing the Union, and the Secretary of
State, who is ex-officio its chairman. It publishes a monthly bulletin containing the latest official in-
formation resnecting ilie resources, cominfroe. and ireneril features of the Aiuericaii Republics, as .veil
as maps and geographical sketches of these countries, which publications are considered public doou-
raients., and as such are carried free in the mails of all the Republics of the Union.

Statistics of Maimfactures in the United States.
Statistics of fHantifactutrs in ti)e sanitetr States*
(CENSUS OF 1905.) ^
The census of manufactures of l905, which covered the calendar j'ear 1904 and included conti-
nental United States and Ahvska, was the first in which the canvass was contiiiert to establishments
conducted under what is known as the factory system, thus excUiding the neighborhood industries
and hand trades. Tiie statistics for these mechanical trades have been a confusing element in the
census of manufactures, and their omission confines the datato a presentation of tlie true manufactur-
ing industries of the country. To secure comparable figures for 19(X), wliich included neighboring
inilHStries, hand trades, and educational, eleemosynary, and penal institutions, it was therefore
neces.sary to revise the publislied reports of tlie Twelfth Census. In comparing the results of the
present census with tliose of former censuses, tlie ditlerent methods should be considered.
'I'he revision of the published statistics for 1900, necessary for purposes of comparison, involved
considerable dilliculty. Certain industries, such as custom millinery, custom tailoring, dressmaking,
taxidermv. cobbling, carpeniering, and custom grist and saw mills were wholly omitted. But ilie
onl}' available information on which to base the elimination of nonfactory estabiisliments for indus-
tries, which included factories as well as local establishments, was that contained in theorigina reports
frcjui these establishments, and those reports were not collected with such segregation in view. It
was found tliat some establishments, which in 1901) did little real manufacturing, had in the five j-ears
developed into true factories. On the other hand, in certain establishments the strictly manufactur-
ing oiierations conducted in 1900 had later been discontinued, although the establishments were still
in business doing custom or repair work only.^ The latter class, however, was composed mainly of
small establishments, and, except as to the number reported, their inclusion or omission has little
effect on the statistics.
Reports were not secured from small est.ablishments in which manufacturing was Incidental to
mercantile or oilier business; or from establishments in which the value of the products for the J'ear
amounted to less tlian S5(i0; or from educational, eleeinosynai-y and peiuil institutions; or from
governmental establishments. The census of 1905, however, was not confined to an enumeration of
large factories.
The statistics for the manufacturing industries of the country under the revised conditions, for
the censuses of 1900 and 1905 are summarized in the following table:

(From Census Bulletin No. S3.)
The number of wholesale establishments engaged in slaughtering and meat packing
during the calendar year 1904 was 020, and their combined capital was $237,714,600. They
furnished employment to 74,134 wage-earners, paid $40,320,072 in wages, consumed materials
costing $805,856,960, and manufactured products to the value of $013,014,624.
ILLINOIS THE LEADING STATE.
Although forty-one States and Territories contributed to these figures, Jhe industry was
practically monopolized by the following fourteen States, named in the order of value of
products: Illinois, Kansas, New York, Nebraska, Missouri, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania,
Iowa, Indiana, Ohio, California, Minnesota, New Jersey, and Wisconsin. Illinois, by far
the most important State, reported 7.3 per cent, of the establishments, 33.0 per cent, of the
capital, 36.4 per cent, of the wage-earners, 36.1 per cent, of the wages paid, and 34.7 per
cent, of the products.
THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS SLAUGHTERED ANNUALLY.
During the calendar year about 7,000.000 beeves, 11,000,000 sheep, and 31.000.000 hogs
•were slaughtered for use in this industry. The beeves cost about $2 SO, 000. OW, the sheep
about $44,000,000, and the hogs about $330,000,000. In addition, the establishments slaugh-
tered other animals to the value of about $13,000,000; they purchased about $53,000,000
worth of meat already dressed, and paid about $72,000,000 for other materials, including
mill supplies and freight.
FRESH BEEF PRINCIPAL PRODUCT.
The leading product of the industry was beef sold fresh, of which 3,748,055,377 pounds
were produced, valued at $247,006,724. Salt pork was the second product in respect to
quantity, slightly exceeding hams, smoked bacon, sides, and shoulders; but the smoked
products were of greater aggregate value. Each of these products, and also pork sold fresh
and refined; lard exceeded in quantity 1,000,000,000 pounds. The value varied from nearly
$75,000,000 for the refined lard to over $132,000,000 for the smoked products.
The quantity of most of the more important products increased between the censuses of
1900 and 1905. For fresh beef the increase was over 800,000,000 pounds, or 28.5 per cent.;
for salt pork, over 185.000,000 pounds, or 13.7 per cent.; for refined lard, over 150.000,000
pounds, or 17.7 per cent., and for fresh pork, nearly 3,000,000 pounds, or 2 per cent. The
quantity of hams, smoked bacon, sides, and shoulders, on the other hand, decreased over
400,000.000 pounds, or 22.8 per cent. Canned beef, salted and cured beef, and neutral lard
also decreased in quantity.

The manufacture of ice is a comparatively new industry, and its growth has been
remarkable. In 1870 the industry had hardly made a beginning. But in the thirty-five
years from 1870 to 1905 the number of establishments engaged primarily in the manufacture
of ice for sale increased from 4 to 1,320; their combined capital, from $434,000 to $60..5'.t2.001;
the average number of wage-earners, from 97 to 10,101; the wages paid, from $40,600 to
$5,540,162; the cost of materials, from $82,105 to $6,011,325, and the value of products, from
$258.2.50 to $23,790,045. These figures show that the industry has now 'passed far beyond
the experimental stage.
It nas gamea a foothold, in fact, in every State and Territory except Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont. Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota. Montana, and
Wyoming, all of which States are well located for the production of natural ice. Even in
these States, however, although no establishments are engaged primarily in the manufacture
of ice for sale, the refrigeration process is used in cold-storage warehouses,
STATES AND CITIES.
The leading States, according to the number of establishments, were Texas, Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Indiana, Louisiana, New York, California, and Missouri. According to the
quantity of ice produced, however, the leading States were Pennsylvania, New York. Ohio,
Texas, Missouri, California, Louisiana, Indiana, Illinois, and New Jersey.
Among the cities having a population of 20,000 and over in 1900. New York ranked
first in the number of tons of manufactured ice reported at the census of 1905. Philadel-
phia, Pa., ranked second; St. Louis. Mo., third; Baltimore, Md., fourth, and New Orleans,
La., fifth. The figures for cities, when compared with those for the States in which the
cities lie, show that the manufacture of ice is largely an urban industry.
GREAT INCREASE IN PRODUCTION.
At the census of 1905 the establishments reported a production of 7.199.448 tons of man-
ufactured ice, with a total value of $22,450,503. This represents an increase over the census
of 1900 of «!7.0 per cent, in quantity and 68.8 per cent, in value. The close identity of these
percentages would seem to indicate that the wholesale price of ice has not advanced much
in the Interval. All but .503,6.59 tons of this product was can ice, because the fundamental
principles governing the elimination of foreign substances in the manufacture of plate ice
nave only recently been discovered. It is now said, however, that all the objectionable
features of plate ice have been eliminated by the peifectod jirocess, and that a pure crystal
plate ice is now being produced at the minimum cost of 00 cents a ton.

(From Census Bulletin No. 8i{.)
The establishments classified under the heading "Salt" are those only in which salt Is
the final product. At the census of I'JOo they numbered 146, and had a combined capital
of $25,586,2X2. They employed, on the average, 4.UGG wage-earners, paid $2,066,399 in
wages, consumed materials costing $4,166, 137, and manufactured products valued at
$9.437jG62.
At the censuses of 1890, 1900 and 1905 New York, Michigan, and Kansas have stood at
the head of the list of salt-producing States. Of the total production of the United States
for 1905, these three States supplied 69.9 per cent. Saginaw, Mich., probably produces salt
at a lower cost than any other place in the country, because there the great lumber interests
.supply as fuel sawdust and lumber offal, which, though utilized as far as possible for other
purposes, remain in enormous quantities, and if not burned must be removed at considerable
expense.
FUEL, MOST COSTLY MATERIAL.
Of the materials used in the production of salt, the most expensive is fuel. At the census
of 1905 this item was reported as costing $1,35.!), 880. Cooperage stock, which was second
in importance, cost $1,176,182, while barrels, bags, and sacks cost $1,150,.327.
The total production of salt, including that manufactured by establishments engaged
primarily in some other industry, was 17,153,615 barrels, valued at $9,334,998. The value per
barrel in 1905 was thus $0,544, as compared with $0,520 in 1900 and $0,523 in 1890. In
addition to the salt, the establishments produced 261,665 pounds of bromine, valued at
$72,584, and other products valued at $38,495. »
iWanufacturcs of textiles, 1905*
(From Census Bulletin No. 74.)
The cotton industry is concentrated for the most part in Southern New England, and in
the States of Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia; the wool industry
and knit goods in Southern New England, New York, and Pennsylvania; and the silk man-
ufacture in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut.
The United. States ranks second in cotton manufactures, as measured by the number of
cotton spindles, either third or fourth in wool manufactures, and in silk manufactures second
to none of the countries for which the statistics of raw silk consumption are available as a
standard for determining the magnitude of their silk manufacture.
COTTON MANUFACTURES.
Establishments engaged in cotton manufactures, not including cotton small wares, num-
bered 1,077 in 1905. The most important fact regarding the industry during the five years
is its continued growth in the Southern States. Five hundred and fifty of the 1,077 estab-
lishments, or. to use a more accurate index of the industry's prosperity. 7.508,749 of the
23.155,163 producing spindles in the country were in this section. Nevertheless New England
has a long lead over the South, and the spindle capacity of Massachusetts alone is greater
than that of all the Southern States combined.
The capital employed in cotton goods increased from $460,842,772 in 1900 to $605,100,164
in 1905. or 31.3 per cent.; the greatest increase was in the capital invested in machinery, etc.
The average number of wage-earners in cotton goods establishments was 310,458, a net
increase of 12,529. The prolonged labor struggle in Fall River caused a falling off of nearly
4 per cent, in the New England States, and in the country at large the rate of increase was
low, probably on account of the einployment of more efficient help and improved machinery.
In all divisions except the South there was a diminution in the number of children employed,
and in that section the increase was only 3,133 out of a total gain in those States of 22.616.
There is a slow but steady displacement of women by men. resulting from the increasing
speed of machinery and the requirement that one hand shall tend a greater number of
machines. Slightly more than one-half of all the wage-earners in the cotton mills of the
country are spinners and weavers. There were 4,806 mule spinners — almost exclusively men,
and about three-fourths of them in the Nev/ England factories — and 55,488 frame spinners,
of whom 10.709 were men, 25.701 women, and 19,078 children. The total number of weavers
was 98,807. about 55 per cent, of whom were in Nev/ England mills, and more than 33 per
cent, in Southern mills.
The consumption of cotton in cotton mills was 3,743,089 bales, or 1.873.074,716 pounds,
and comprised 54. .384 bales, or 21,80)2,032 pounds, of sea-island; 3.629.085 bales, or 1,807,-
512.278 pounds, of other domestic, and 59,620 bal^s, or 43.700,406 pounds of Egyptian
and other foreign. The aggregate cost was $221,821,944. Yarn amounting to 91,594,658
pounds, at a co?t of $21,601,483, was purchased as material in 1905.
The aggregate value of products was $442,451,218. The principal product of the cotton
goods industry v/as 5, 070, 028., 520 square yards of woven goods, valued at $.320,382,367. More
than one-third of the quantity was plain cloths for printing and converting, and more than
one-fifth was brown or bleached sheetings and shirtings. Other products include yarns
for sale, sewing cotton, twine, tape and webbing, batting and wadding, etc. Owing to the
high price of cotton, much higher than in 19f»0. the cost of goods was also higher. More-
over, there has been a decided movement toward finer goods.
SILK MANUFACTURES.
There were 624 silk mills in 1905, 29.2 per cent, more than in 1900, and their capital
was $109,556,621, an increase of 35.1 per cent. The average number of wage-earnera

and $20,767,943. 27.6 per cent, more than in 1900. The cost of materials u.sed was $75,861,188,
and the value of product.?. $133,2X8.072. Exclusive of duplications, the cost of materials was
$59,460,957 in 190.", and $r){t..^66,398 in 1900, and the net value of products, $118,533,560 In
1905 and $92,451,212 in 1900.
The quantity of raw silk constimed by silk mills was 11,572,783 pounds, 1S.6 per cent,
more than in 1900. Materials other than raw silk used included 3,236,744 pounds of organ-
zine and tram, costing- $14,5.52,425; 1,951,201 pounds of spun silk, costing $4,310,061; textile
yarns other than silk, to the weight of 9,730,769 pounds, costing $3,713,794, and other
materials costing $7,966,492.
The total number of throwing spindles in 1905 was 1,197,408, comprising 628.914 in com-
mission throwing plants, and 568,494 in silk mills. Belt-driven spindle," greatly predomi-
iiate in plants of commission throwsters. The present high efficiency of tiirowing machinery
in the United Spates has contributed greatly to the remarkable growth of the silk industry
in this country.
The total gross value of products, $1.38.288.072, is distributed thus: Organzine and tram
made for sale. $9,190,650; spun silk yarn made for sale, $1,660,647; machine twist and
.sewing, embroidery, fringe, floss and wash silk, $10,146,071; dress goods, figured and plain,
and other silk broad goods, except velvets and plushes, $60,917,762; velvets and plushes,
$4,502,021; tapestries, curtains and other upholstery broad goods, $1,559,982; ribbons and laces,
$22,636,093; braids and binding. $.^,493,977; dress, cloak, millinery and military trimmings,
including fringes and gimps, $4,124,651; all other products, including embroideries. $5,340,162;
amount received for contract work, $3,716,056. There have been general increases since
1900 in all the products of the silk industry with the one exception of silk lace, nets, veils,
etc. The gain in the production of jDiece-dyed goods has been notable. The silk label man-
ufacture, inaugurated in the year l9o3, has become one of the most important and promising
branches of the silk industry.
Pennsylvania and New Jersey are the principal silk manufacturing States. Silk weaving
is carried on more largely in New Jersej^ than in Pennsylvania, but the latter does more
silk spinning. The leading silk manufacturing counties of New Jersey are Passaic, Hudson,
Warren, and Morris.
HOSIERY AND KNIT GOODS.
The hosiery and knit goods industry in this country is one of the most rapidly growing
branches of the textile industry, and has now become one of its most important branches.
The number of mills was 1,079 in 1905. as compared with 921 in 1900; the capital invested,
$106,663,531; the average number of wage-earners, 103,715; wages, $31,536,024; the cost of
materials used. $76,593,782. and the value of products, $136,558,139. There have been
increases since 1900 as follows: Capital, 30.3 per cent.; wage-earners. 24.4 per cent.;
wages, 29.5 per cent.; cost of materials used. 50 per cent., and value of products, 43 per
cent. More than three-fifths of the total number of establishments are still located in the
five Middle States, 1.32 in the Xew England States, 119 in the Southern States, and 161 in
the Western States. So far as the industry has developed in the South and West, the manu-
facture is almost exclusively of hosiery.
The machinery equipment comprised 927 woollen cards, 224 combing machines. 596.362
producing spindles, 88.374 knitting machines, and 30,410 sewing machines. The industry is
following more and more the English system of separating spinning from what is technically
known in Great Britain as manufacturing. The use of wool in the manufacture of hosiery
and knit goods is relatively declining.
FLAX, HEMP, AND JUTE PRODUCTS.
Of the total capital. $37,110,521 was invested in the manufacture of cordage and twine,
$11,019,132 in that of jute and jute goods, and $6,293,878 in that of linen goods. Materials
used in fordage and twine manufacture cost $36,095,747; jute and jute goods, $5.054.1.30,
and linen goods. $3,740,669. The cordage and twine products had a value of $48,017,139;
jute and jute products. $9,065,802, and linen goods. $5.8.56.388. TIfe chief products of the
cordage and twine industry were 191,796.047 pounds of binder twinij, valued at $19,514,992,
and 200,824,974 pounds of rope, valued at $19,668,169.

At the census of 1905, 275 establishments, with a capital of $7,783,900. were reported
as engaged in the manufacture of buttons. These factories furnished employment for 768
salaried officials and clerks and 10.567 wage-earners, who received as payment for their
services $711,473 in salaries and $3,680,196 in wages. Of the wage-earners. 5,188, or 49.1
per cent., were men, and 5.024. or 47.5 per cent., were women.
The value of the products of these establishments for 1905 was $11,133,769, an Increase
of $3.437.8.59, or 44.7 per cent., over the value for 1900. The total value of products for
1905 was made up of $9,040,029, the value of 29,859,292 gross of buttons; $916,003, the value
of 6,991,738 gross of button blanks made for sale, and $1,177,737, the value of all other
products.
In addition to the buttons manufactured in these factories, 5,694.439 gross, valued at
$1,034,843, were produced as partial or secondary products of other establishments. The
total quantity of buttons manufactured during the year therefore amounted to 35.5,53,731
gross, valued at $10,074,872. This is an increase in number of 14.194.213 gross, or 66.5 per
cent., and in value of $3.5(;4.709. or 54.8 per cent, over the corresponding totals for 1900.
The report shows tw»nty-one States engaged in the manufacture of buttons, although
only four had products valued at more than $1.(X>0.000. New York was the leading State,
with $.3,849,317; New Jersey had $1,592,261; Iowa, $1,500,945, and Connecticut, $1,446,219.

According to the census of 1005, forty-six establishments made a specialty of manufac-
turing one or more varieties of needles, pins, or hooks and eyes. These establishments
reported a capital of $5,331,939, 3,965 wage-earners, wages amounting to $1,595,923, and
products valued at $4,750,5f>9. Almost equal numbers of men and women were engaged in
this industry, the numbers being 1,862 and 1,860, respectively.
The capital, the number of wage-earners, the amount paid in wages, and the value of
products have more than doubled since 1890.
The actual increase in the value of products was greater for the five-year period between
the censuses of 1900 and 1905 than for the decade between the censuses of ISUO and 1900,
being $1,512,607 for the former period and $1,128,513 for the latter.
GREAT QUANTITIES OF NEEDLES AND PINS MADE.
The reports for 1905 show the production in the United States of 1,420,176 gross of
needles, valued. at $1,140,924, and 136,887,782 gross of pins, valued at $2,067,037.
These figures, however, do not represent the total output of these articles, as a consid-
erable quantity was manufactured in establishments engaged in industries in which the
making of needles and pins was merely incidental. The reports for the census of 1905
show that this class of establishments produced 345,897 gross of needles, valued at $377,487,
and pins valued at $565,019. The production of pins reported from other industries repre-
sents largely horn hair pins. The figures for these Secondary products combined with the
totals for the principal products of this kind make the output 1.706,073 gross of needles,
valued at $1,518,411, and pins valued at $2,032,656, a total value of $4,151,067 for both
classes of products. For 1900 the corresponding value w-as $2,462,745.
The leading variety of needles manufactured in the establishments discussed in this
bulletin was sewing machine needles, with a production of 776,542 gross, valued at $600,046,
Latch knitting machine needles were next in rank in importance, the 310,846 gross of such
needles being valued at $422,655. More spring knitting machine needles (332,788 gross) were
manufactured, but their value was considerablj' less ($1 18,223 1.
Large quantities of each variety of pins were produced— 132.632,232 gross 5f common or
toilet pins, 2,550,650 gross of safety pins, and 1,704,900 gross of hair pins. The values of
these varieties were $1,129,006, $829,386, and $109,245. respectively. All other products
"including hooks and eyes" were valued at $1,542,028.

A capital of $126,320,604 was Invested and 5,058 salaried officials and clerks and 60,722
wage-earners were employed in the manufacture of carriages and wagons, including all the
various kinds of vehicles propelled by animal power for land transportation in the census
year 1905. The expenses of the Industry included $5,239,043 for salaries, $30,878,229 for
wages, and $61,215,228 for materials. The value of the products was $125,332,976.
Between the censuses of 1900 and 1905 this industry increased substantially in every
item except number of establishments. It is interesting to note that the rates of increase
for wages and salaries were greater than the corresponding rates for the number of wage-
earners and salaried emploj'ees.
STATES PROMINENT IN THE CARRIAGE INDUSTRY.
Ohio was the leading State in the manufacture of carriages and wagons, having products
valued at $16,096,125, or over one-eighth of the total value. Indiana ranked next, with a
value of $15,228,337; New York was third, with $12,573,148, and Michigan fourth, with
$12,101,170. Illinois, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Missouri were the only other States
reporting a production of over $5,000,000.
The greatest increase in the value of products between the censuses of 1900 and 1905 is
shown for Indiana, the gain being $2, .'567, 120. Four other States— Illinois, North Carolina,
Kentucky, and Missouri — had an increase of over $1,000,000 each.
VARIETIES AND VALUES OF CARRIAGES AND WAGONS MANUFACTURED.
The most important of the products were carriages, of which 937.409, valued at $55,750,-

STEAM RAILROAD CARS.
In the census year 1005 there were 1.141 shops operated by railroad companies and car-
rying on both construction and repair work, and 73 that were not operated by railroad com-
panies and did not do repair work. The railroad repair shops reported an investment of
$146,943,720, or fi2.5 per cent, of the total investment of the two branches of the industry;
employed 236,000 wage-earners, or S7.4 per cent, of the total number, and manufacturod
products valued at $300,863,499, or 73.6 per cent, of the total value. The independent car
shops reported a capital of $88,179,047, 34,058 wage-earners, and products valued at
$111,175,310.
Pennsylvania was the leading State in the steam car Industry. Its product was valued
at $80,449,604, or 19.1 per cent, of the total value. Illinois was second in rank, with a pro-
duction valued at $56,417,073. Other leading States were Ohio, with $26,907,035; Indiana,
with $24,551,301; New York, with $22,136,696, and Missouri, with $20,789,059..
NUMBER AND VALUE OF STEAM CARS BUILT.
The aggregate value of the steam railroad cars built during the census year was $100,-
346,912. This amount includes $59,663, the value of steam cars built in street car manufac-
turing establishments.
The value of the cars built in the railroad repair shops was only $12,008,001, or less than
5 per cent, of the total value of the products of such shops, while the value of the cars
constructed in the shops that were not operated by the railroads amounted to $87,289,248, or
78.5 per cent, of the value of all the products of such shops.
The total number of cars manufactured during the year was 119,040. Of these 2,446
were passenger cars and 115,404 were freight cars. The passenger cars weie valued at
$20,486,260 and the freight cars at $70,215,260. The value of the freight cars was therefore
almost four times as great as the value of the passenger cars. The reports for the census
of 1000 show 1.369 passenger cars, valued at $8,810,032, and 143,133 freight cars, valued at
$77,240,632. The increase in the number of passenger cars was 78.7 per cent, and the gain in
value was 132.6 per cent.; the number of freight cars decreased 19.3 per cent., while their
value increased 2.6 per cent.
Since 1900 the production of steel railroad cars for both passenger and freight service
has increased rapidly, and the substitution of steel freight cars of large tonnage and of dis-
tinct types for smaller wooden cars of rather nondescript type is progressing on the majority
of railroads as fast as conditions permit.
Illinois was considerably ahead of every other State in the number of both passenger
and freight cars manufactured during the year. The passenger cars numbered 775 and the
freight 27,137. Ohio was second in the number of passenger cars, with 382, and Missouri
was third, with 218.
Pennsylvania was second in the number of freight cars, with 21, .347, and Michigan was
third, with 18,591. The other States producing over 5,000 freight cars A^ere Indiana, with
11,493; Missouri, with 10,498, and Ohio, with 6,451.
LEADING VARIETIES OF STEAM CARS.
The report shows in detail the varieties of the cars produced in the independent con-
struction shops. Of the 2,030 cars built for passenger service reported for the census of
1005. there were 760 chair and coach cars, 428 ordinary passenger cars, 304 sleeping cars,
loo haeerage and express cars, 114 parlor cars, 95 mail cars, 58 dining and buffet cars, and
13 private cars.
At the census of 1000 the number of ordinary passenger cars built formed 33.8 per cent,
of all the cars constructed for passenger service, and the chair and coach cars formed 18.5
per cent. For 1905 the ordinai-y passenger cars formed only 21.1 per cent, and the chair
and coach cars formed 37.0 per cent, of the total number manufactured.
The average value of each variety of passenger cars increa.sed between 1000 and 1005. '
The number of the principal varieties of cars built for freight service were as follows:
Box, 38,184; coal and coke, 27,998; gondola, 0,518; flat, 5,412; stock, 4,235; refrigerator,
3,353. and fruit. 2,840.
There has been a decided growth in the construction of freight cars for special purposes.
At the census of 1000, 1.620 fruit cars, valued at $665,354. were built; at the census of 10(>5,
the number of such cars was 2,840 and their value $1,727,771. The output of refrigerator
cars increased from 2,,354, valued at $1,056,007, for 1900, to 3,353, valued at $3,042,835. for
1005, while the production of stock cars increased from 2,760, valued at $1,426,800, to 4,235.
valued at $2,453,123.
STREET RAILROAD CARS.
The great development of street railroads since 1800 has caused an extraordinary growth
in the industries engaged in the construction and repair of street railroad cars. The value
of products for these industries nearly quadruple during the fifteen-vear period from 1800
to 1005, increasing from $6,268,402 in the earlier year to $24,281,317 at the last census. The
increase for the decade from 1800 to 1000 was $10,407,717, or 166 per cent., and tkat for
the five years from 1000 to 1005 was $7,605,138. or 45.6 per cent.
Street cars also are manufactured by two classes of shops, one being independent of the
railroads and the other being operated by the street railroad companies and doing repair
work.
Of the 100 establishments engaged in the street car Industries at the census of 1005, 88
were street railway repair ehopB. Notwithstanding the fact that there were ilx timei aa

many repair shops as establishments engaged primarily in the manufacture of street railroad
cars, the latter represented an investment of $12,975,70i{, or DO.l per cent, of the capital
employed in the combined industry and manufactured a product valued at $10,844,106, or 44.7
per cent, of the value of products for the two branches of the industry.
The repair shops, however, employed 11,052 wage-earners and paid in wages $7,012,71)8,
which constituted 70 and 71.2 per cent., respectively, of the totals for the combined indus-
tries.
As in the case of steam cars, less than 5 per cent, of the value of the products of the
street railroad repair shops resulted from the manufacture of cars. With the car construc-
tion establishments, on the other hand, 76.6 per cent, of the value represented the building
of cars.
NUMBER AND VALUE OF STREET CARS.
The number of street railroad cars built during the year was 4.694. These cars were
valued at $9,002,310. Practically all of the cars were electric. No cable cars were reported,
and only forty-two were cars for horse power.
Of the electric cars built in the shops that w€re independent of the railroads 2,621 were
closed, 554 were open, and 502 were combination, and the remaining 251 were of other
varieties.
STATES PROMINENT IN THE MANUFACTURE AND REPAIR OF STREET
RAILROAD CARS.
Ohio was the leading State in the value of products of the independent shops, furnishing
$1,828,326, or 16.9 per cent, of the total value of products for such shops.
New York ranked first in the value of products of the repair shops, with $3,879,933.
The other States with products valued at more than $1,000,000 were Pennsylvania, $1,258,542;
California, $1,228,443; Missouri, $1,210,961, and Illinois, $1,142,562.

LEATHER.
In theT)eriod from 1900 to 1905 the number of establishments which turned out leather,
tan, curried, and finished, decreased from 1,306 to 1,049. The amount of capital invested,
on the other hand, increased from $173,977,421 to $242,584,254, or 39.4 per cent.; the average
number of wage-earners, from 52.109 to 57,239, and the value of products, from $204,038,127
to $252,620,986. The capital invested in machinery, tools and implements more than doubled.
MATERIALS.
Hides to the number of 17,581,613, costing $89,126,593, reported by 669 establishments,
represented 46.6 per cent, of the total cost of materials. Hides were converted chiefly into
sole, grain, harness, belting, carriage, and furniture leather, but some were sold in the
rough. The amount paid for tanning materials was $25,029,994, or 13.1 per cent, of the total
cost of materials. The use of hemlock and oak bark extract for tanning has increased
greatly since 1900. Oak bark, although used by the largest number of establishments,
formed less than one-sixth of the total cost.
PRODUCTS.
The principal kinds of products, named in the order of ihelr total value in the census
year, were sole leather, upper leather, goatskins, harness leather, sheepskins, and leather
sold in the rough. Sole leather formed more than one-half of the value of all leather man-
ufactured. Of this, 77.5 per cent, was produced in the group of States consisting of Penn-
sylvania, New York, Ohio, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, and
Georgia. In this section there are hemlock and oak forests from which is obtained the bark
used so l9,rgely for tanning. One hundred and forty-four establishments engaged exclusively
in the manufacture of sole leather turned out 93.7 per cent, of the value of all such leather
tanned in the United States in 1905.
Pennsylvania led in the production of sole leather, goatskins, and leather sold in the
rough, and Massachusetts in the manufacture of upper leather and sheepskins. In harness
leather Wisconsin was far in excess of its closest competitor, Pennsylvania. This kind of
leather was reported by 298 establishments, the largest number manufacturing any one
kind of leather.
BOOTS AND SHOES.
In 1905 there were 1,316 establishments engaged in the industry, having $122,526,093
capital, 149,924 wage-earners, wages amounting to $69,059,680, cost of materials amounting
to $197,363,495, and products valued at $320,107,458. All of these items, except the number
of establishments, show increases for the five-year period since the Twelfth Census. Capital
and value of products increased at practically the same rate, the per cent, of gain In the
latter being 23.6, as compared with 22.7 in the former. The advance of 80.8 per cent, in
the miscellaneous expenses, which is nearly four times that in any other item, is doubtless
due in part to the heavy amount paid for advertising. The fact that the gain in wage-
earners (5.7 per cent.) was so slight in comparison with the gain in value of products Is
due principally to the increased use of machinery, and in a measure to the large increase
in the use of cut stock made by factories devoted exclusively to that kind of work.
The number of establishments in 1905 was less by 283, or 17.7 per cent., than In 1900.
220 The Leather Industry.
STATISTICS OF MANUFACTURES IN THE UNITED STATES— C'on/m«erf.
Many concerns went out of existence in these five years, while others increased largely their
equipment and their output.
PRODUCTS.
There has been an increase in the value of every kind of boots and shoes, and at the
same time a reduction in the number of establishments manufacturing each kind. In most
cases the quantity has not increased at the same rate as the value. More than half the
total number of establishments specialized in one product. Men's boots and shoes exclu-
sively were manufactured by 198 establishments; boys' and youths', by 29; women's, by 171,
and 120 made only misses' and children's boots and shoes.
LOCALIZATION.
Boot and shoe manufacture is tactically confined to the New England, North Central,
and Middle Atlantic States. The three groups combined represent over 95 per cent, of the
total capital and value of products. From the Inception of the industry in this country the
New England States have led all others. In 1905 over half the capital, wage-earners, and
products in the industry was reported by these States, and over 40 per cent, by Massa-
chusetts alone. This State has held first rank since the statistics of boot and shoe manu-
facture were first taken, and now contributes a greater proportion of all items than In 1900.
except in value of products, which forms a slightly smaller proportion of the total. There
was an absolute increase, however, of $27,176,183. or 2.3.2 per cent., in value of products,
and in capital of $11,952,098, or 31.8 per cent. Next to Massachusetts, the most prominent
State was New York, but the capital reported there, $14,106,058, was less than one-third,
and the value of products, $34,137,049, less than one-fourth the amounts of these items
reported from Massachusetts. The ten States next in rank according to value of products
are Ohio, Missouri, New. Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Maine. Illinois, New Jersey, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, and Michigan, in the order named. In capital the States rank the same as In
value of products, except that Wisconsin leads New Jersey. There have been no violent
changes in the positions of the leading States. The most, marked is the rise of Missouri
from seventh place to fourth, which is the result of an increase in capital of 97 per cent,
and of 108.8 per cent, in value of products. Ohio also reported more capital and greater
value of products than in 1900.
That the industry is urban in character may be observed: Sixty cities, each having
products valued at over $1,000,000. produced about four-fifths of the total value of products;
thirteen cities, all but one of which had a population of 25,000 and over in 1900, and all but
three over 50,000 population each, had products valued at over $5,000,000, and together
turned out 48.9 per cent, of the value of all boots and shoes manufactured in 1905. All of
the thirteen cities** except Chicago are in the six leading States. Brockton, Mass.. has
obtained first place at the expense of Lynn, Mass., which dropped to second. Other cities
in Massachusetts which had products valued at over $5,000,000 were Haverhill, Marlboro,
and Boston. The progress of Missouri in the industry is due to St. Louis's gain of 180.5
per cent, in value of products, which brought that city from ninth in rank to third. The
net increase for the thirteen cities was 40.1 per cent., whereas that for thirty cities and
towns having over $1,000,000, but less than $5,000,000 product, was 23.2 per cent. It is evi-
dent that the growth in the large centres is proportionately more rapid.
LEATHER CLOVES AND MITTENS.
In 1905 leather gloves and mittens were made in 339 establishments. Their total capital
was $10,705,599; they employed 10,645 wage-earners; paid in wages $3,840,253; used materials
costing $10,000,889, and manufactured products valued at $17,740,385. The chief materials
used were hides and skins, which cost $8,109,523. The kinds used in 1905, in the order of
their total cost, were horse and cow hides, sheepskins (domestic), kid and suede (imported),
kid and suede (domestic), deerskins, sheepskins (imported), and hogskins (domestic and
llliportod).
The total number of gloves, mittens, and gauntlets manufactured in the United States
increased from 2,895,661 dozen pairs to 3,370,146 dozen pairs, or 16.4 per cent., although
their value increased only from $16,039,168 to $17,122,772, or 6.8 per cent. The dispropor-
tionate increase in quantity and value is probably accounted for by the larger use of horse
and cow hides, materials which are cheaper and more durable than deerskin and sheepskin
for rough gloves. Men's dress and working gloves and mittens were the leading products,
comprising 86.5 per cent, of the total output of gloves and mittens. Women's and chil-
dren's gloves and mittens were not extensively made, owing to scarcity of suifkble skins
and cost of labor.
LOCALIZATION.
The leading States were, in the order of the value of their products. New York, Wis-
consin, Illinois, and California. The output of Wisconsin increased in the five-year period
.300 per cent., while that of Illinois, New York, and California decreased, respectively, 31.1
per cent., 8.4 per cent., and 1.1 per cent. The manufacture of leather gloves and mittens
in this country was first undertaken in Fulton County, N. Y.. and the locality has malH-
tained its pre-eminence, producing in 1905, in 145 establishments, 48.3 per cent, of the total
value of products. Gloversville alone, with 86 establishments, produced 29.9 per cent, of
the total value of products for the United States. The capital invested in this county is
52.8 per cent, of the total.
IMPORTS.
The total value of gloves of kid and leather imported in 1905 was $4,727,489. Three-
fourths of the value was from France and Germany. There was a decrease of $1,380,276.
or 22.6 per cent., between 1900 and 1905, due in a measure to the increased use of knit
gloves and cloth gloves, and also to the Increased importation of skins "in salt pickle."
which are admitted free of duty. The dressing of these skins for home factories is growing
rapidly, especially in New York. Imports of gloves were almost exclusively of the finer
grades, and most of them probably ladies' gloves.

Whenever the general character and manner of issae of a periodical publication is changed in the
interest of the publisher, or of advertisers or other pei-sons, by the addition of unusual quantities of
advertisements, or of matter ditrerent from that usually appearing in the publication, or calculated
togive special prominence to some particular business or businesses, or otherwise— especially where
large numbers of copies are circulated by or in the interest of particular persons— the second-class
rates of postage will be denied that issue; and if there be repeated Instances of such irregularities,
the publication will be excluded from the mails as second-class matter.

Miss., Minn., Mass.; Nev., Neb. ; Penu., Tenn., etc., when hastily or carelessly written. This is
especially necessary in addressing mail matter to places of which the names are borne by several
post-offices in different States.
Avoid a-s much as possible using envelopes made of flimsy paper, especially where more than one
sheet of paper, or anv other article than paper, is inclosed. Being often handled and even in the mail-
bags subject to pressure, such envelopes not infrequently split open, giving cause of complaint.
Never send monev or an v other article of value through the mail e.xcept either by means of a money
orderor in a registered letter. Anv person who sends money or jewelry in an unregistered letter not
only runs a risk of losing his property, but exposes to temptation every one through whose hands his
letter passes, and may be the means of ultimately bringing some clerk or letter-carrier to ruin.
See that everv letter or package bears the full name and post-office address of the writer, in order
to secure the return of the letter, if the person to whom it is directed cannot be found. A much larger

When dropping a letter, newspaper, etc.. into a street mailing- box, or into the receptacle at a
post-office, always see that the packet falls into the box and does notstick in its passage: observe, also,
particularly, whether the postage stamps remain securely in their places.
Postage stamps should be placed on the upper right-hand corner of the address side of all mail
matter. . .
The street and number for box number) should form a part of the address of all mail matter directed
to cities. In most cities there are many persons, and even firms, bearing the same name. Before
depositing anv package or other article for mailing, the sender should assure himself that it is wrapped
and packed in the manner prescribed bv postal regulations; that it does not contain umnallahle matter
nor exceed the limit of weisrhtas fixed by law; and that it is fully prepaid and properly addressed.
The postage stamps on all mail matter are necessarily cancelled at once, and the value of those affixed
to packages that are afterward discovered to be short-paid or otherwise uumailable is therefore liable
to be lost to the senders. ., , .
It is unlawful to send an ordinary letter by express or otherwise outside of the mails unless it be
Inclosed in a Government-stamped envelope. It is also unlawful to inclose a letter in an express
package unless it pertains whollv to the contents of the package.
It is forbidden bv the regulations of the Post-Office Department for postmasters to give to any
person information cbucerniug the mail matter of another, or to disclose the name of a box-holder at
a post-office.
Letters addressed to persons temporarily sojourning in a city where the Free Delivery System is In
operation should be marked "Transient" or '-General Delivery," if not addressed to a street and
number or some other designated place of deliver}'.
Foreipn books, etc., infringing United States copyright are undeliverable if received m foreign

passage there were forty-one. The bill as amended went back to the Senate, where it

^riJitration Erratics.
Treaties of arbitration were negotiated in 1904 and 1905 by the President with Great Britain,
France, Germany, Austria- Hungary, Norway and Sweden. Switzerland, Portugal, and Mexico.
They were in exactly the same language and provided that differences of a legal nature or relating to
the interpretation of treaties which cannot be settled by diplomacy shall be referred to the permanent
court of arbitration established at The Hague '•'•provided, nevertheless, that they do notaffecttho
vital interests, the independence orthe honorof the two contracting states and do not concern the
Interests of third parties. ' ' The United States Senate ratified these treaties February 11, 1905, but—
notwithstanding tlie remonstrance of the President— with an amendment requiring that each specific
proposal to arbitrate shall be put in the form of a treaty to be referred to the Senate for approval.
The President, holding that the amendment vitiated the force of the treaties, decided not to submit
them to tlie countries with wliich llie original conventions were signed.
The Senate on January 28, 1905, ratified a treaty with Guatemala, San Salvador, Peru and Hon-
duras providing for the submission to arbitration at the Permanent Court of tlie Hague of"; all claims
for pecuniary loss or damage which may be presented by their respective citizens and whicli cannot
be amicably adjusted through diplomatic channels, and when said claims are of sutticient import-
ance to warrant the expenses of arbitration, ' ' the treaty to remain in force five years from the date
of its ratification by the last signatory government (the United States).

"The Monroe doctrine" was enunciated in the following words in President Monroe's message
to Congress December 2. 1823 : ^ ,.,_..,
' ' In the discussions to which this interest has given rise, and in the arrangements by which they
mav terminate, the occa.sion has been deemed proper for uHserting, as a principle in which rights and
interests of the United States are involyed,that the American continents, by the free and independent
condition which they have assumed and maintain, are henceforth not to be considered as subjects lor
future colonization by any F.uropean power. , . . We owe it, therefore, to candor and to the
amicable relations existing between the United States and those powers to declare that we should
consider any attempt on their part to extend their system to any portion of this hemisphere as dan-
gerous to our peace and safety. With the existing colonies or dependencies of any European power
we have not interfered and shall not interfere. But with the governments who have declared their
independence and maintain it, and whos» independence we haye.on great consideration and on just
principles, acknowledged, we could not view any interposition for the purpose of oppressing them or
controlling in any other manner their destiny by any European power in any other light than as the
manifestation of an unfriendly disposition toward the United States. ' '
Secretary of State Olney in'his despatch ot July 20. 1895, on the Venezuelan Boundary Dispute, said:
" It (the Monroe doctrine) does not establish any general protectorate by the United States oyer
other American States. It does not relieve any American Statefrom its obligations as fixed by inter-
national law, nor prevent any European power directly interested from enforcing such obligations or
from inflicting merited punishment for the breacii of them. ' '
President Roosevelt in a speech in 1902 upon the results of llie Spanish- American \yar, .-^aid:
" The Jlonroe doctrine issimplv a statement of our very firm belief that the nations now existing
on this continent must be left to work out their own destinies slmong themselves, and that this conti-
nent is no longer to be regarded as the colonizing ground of any tiuropean power. The due power on

Coinmercial Agree'tnent With Ger'inany, 233
(Commercial ^flttcmtnt 2I2ait!) (KTcrman^,
A Commercial Agreement between the United States and Germany was signed at
Washington April 22, 1907, and at Levico May 2, 1907. The following are its terms:
The President of the United States of America, on the one hand, and His Majesty the
German Emperor, King of Prussia, in the name of the German Empire, on the other, ani-
mated by a desire to adjust the commercial relations between the two countries until a
comprehensive commercial treaty can be agreed upon, have decided to conclude a tempo-
rary commercial agreement, and have appointed as their plenipotentiaries for that pur-
pose, to wit:

234 Forests and Forestry.
ffnxtntn antr jFoutstt^.
The total woode'l area in the United States is estimated at 1,094.514 square miles, or about
699,500,000 acres, which is 36J^ per cent, of the total land area, exclusive of Alaska.
The lumber industry is fourth among the great industries of the United states. The amount of
lumher pioduced iu 1905 was betweeu 30 aud*35 billion board feet, valued at from $475,000,000
to $500,000,000.
At the present rate of cutting the forest lands of the United States cannot long meet the enormous
demands made upon them. TJie great pineries of the Lake States have been almost entirely elim-
inated, and great inroads have been made iu the supply of valuable timber throughoutall partsof the
country.
The heavy demand's fdr timber have been rapidly pushing to the South and West the great
centres of lumber supplj', in consequence the State of Washington now leads in lumber production,
followed in turn by Wisconsin, Michigan, Louisiana, Minnesota, and the others. The annual increase
Iu the cut of white pine and of yellow pine, which now reaches the enormous figure of 10 billion
feet, has practically come to a standstill; and the lumbering of red fir In the northwest has brought
that wood to third place.
A long step forward in the preservation of forests for purposes of permanent timber supply and
the protection of watersheds and grazing lands was made, when, on February 1, 1905, tlie transfer
of the administration of the National Forest reserves from the Department of tlie Interior to the
Departmentof Agriculture was made. Under the present system the management of the Xarional
forests, the area of which on November 17, 1906, was, approximatelj', 127,U78,658acres, is under-
taken by the Forest Service of the United States Department of AgricultuTe.
A phenomenal saving has been effected to tlie naval stores industry by the Introduction of the cup
and {gutter system of turpentiniug, instead of the old destructive system of boxing, by insuring a larger
product, a better quality, and, bestofall, indefinitely prolonging the life of the industry bylesseu-
ing iheviamage to the longleaf pine forests.
In 1905, 3,192,000 cords of wood vv:,»e used in the manufacture of paper, of which an Increased
amount, 645,428 was imported from Canada. TLiS demand is making a large drain on the spruce
forests winch furnish the principal supply, and investigations are uow being made to determine
what woods, such as poplar, fir, and the like, can be successfully used*to insure a continued supply
of material. A much larger drain upon our forest re.sources is caused in the production of railroad
tie-', of which 84,000, 000, equivalent to three billion board feet, were used Iu 1905. White oak,
hitherto the chief .source of supply, is not plentiful enough to indefinitely meet this demand, and in
maiiypartsof the country the supply of chestnut, cedar, and cypress is becoming inadequate; how-
ever, seasoning and treating methods are being found by which cheaper and more plentiful woods, as
lodgepole pinein the Northwest and loblolly pine iu the South, are being prepared for these uses.
Timber to the amount of two and one-half billion feet was used for miue timbers.
THE FOREST SERVICE.
"Forest Service" has been the name since July 1, 1905, of that branch of the Department of
Agriculture which was previously called the "Bureau of Forestry," and, earlier still, the ' 'Division
of Forestry. ' '
Since February 1, 1905, the Forest Service has been charged, under the direction of the Secre-
tary of .\gricnlture, with the administration of the National Forests. About the manageme'it of
the National Forests, ther^ore. the work of the Service now centres. The Forests, whose area
on April 1, 1907, was 147,948,685 acres, are of vital importance for their timber and grass and for
the conservation of stream flow. They are so managed as to develop their permanent value as a re-
source by use.
Aside from the care and perpetuation of the National Forests, the Forest Service has to do with
the practical uses of forests and forest trees in the United States, especially with the commercial
mauiigement of forest tracts, wood lots, and forest plantations. It undertakes such forest studios as
lie l)eyond the power or the means of individuaLs to carry on unaided. - It stands ready to co-operate,
to the liiTiit of Its resources, with all who seek assistance in the solution of practical forest problems,
part i<-ularl J' where such co-operation will result in setting up object lessons to serve as encouraging
examples for the general benefit.
Co-operative Stale studies are carried on with States which request the advice of the Service.
Examples of this work are the studies of forest conditions in New Hampshire, which appropriated
$7,000to\vard the total cost, and California, which appropriated $2.5,000. Maine, Massacluisetts,
Maryland, Rhode Island, Delaware, North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, and Mississippi
have ;tl so called upon the Service for expert assistance.
Tlie fruits of its more important studies are published and distributed without charge upon re-
quest, or sold at a low price by the Superintendent of Documents.
The work of the Forest Service is ortjanlzed under four branches and fourteen offices. The of-
fice of the Forester stands at the head, and the branches, which are grazing, operation, sylviculture,
and products, report to the Forester.
The foUowiiig is the organization of the Forest Service:

forest photograph collection, and charge of the forest exhibits prepared by the Service.
A leading branch of the dendroloj^ical studies is the iniiking of an accurate forest niap of the dis-
tribution of tree species in the United States, to show the extent, composition, and economic possi-

bilitiesof our forest resources. Others of these studies concern the cedar forests of Texas, and im-
portant but little known trees Indigenous to the United States, the growth of which may profitably
extend to new localities for economic purposes. Prominent among the latter are the desert pines of
California. An investigation is being made of the present and probable future supply of western
tan bark oak, as well as of other trees the barks of which are used to aduln^rate tan bark, and the
taiuiin contents of the barks are being determined by the Bureau of Chemistry. Included also is a
study of basket willows. Experimental holts.are established on the ArlingtonExperimental Farm,
near Washington, D. C. Attention is given especially to the conditions under which high-grade
basket rods may be pioduced. Approved basket willow cuttings are distributed free each Spring to
applicants interested in willow culture.
A series of important publications in course of preparation will describe and illustrate the tree
species of the different regions of the United States. The first of these bulletins embraces the trees
of the Pacific Coast, and the second those of the Rocky IMountain States. One special use of these
tree books will be the'aid which they will give, forest ollicers on National Forests in identifying
speci'^'S and in acquainting themselves with their habits, growth, distribution, and other important
facts.
The dendrologist also gives technical information about trees, in response to inquiries, including
the identification of the wood, seeds, foliage, etc., of native and exotic trees. A large and growing
correspondence evidences the public demand for such information.
The Government forest exhibits prepared f<jr .State, National, and international expositions ex-
plain what forestj' Is and show its application to the problems with whicli the Service is dealing.
Through these displays much publicinterest is aroused and information given concerning our forests,
their economic importance, and right and wrong methods of using them,
FOREST PLANTING.
The section of planting in the department of Sylviculture, deals with all phases of forest planting
within the National Forests. In the past two important problems have received special attention:
(1) The reforesting of denuded watei-sheds where planting is needed in order to control and regulate
the flow of streams directly supplying cities and towns; (2) planting within the treeless National
Forests in the Middle West to provide for timber in the future and to serve as an object lesson to the
people.
The trees used in planting are grown at eight Government nurseries in the following National
Forests: San Gabriel, Santa Barbara, Gila, Dismal Kiver, Pikes Peak, Salt Lake, Pecos, and liiiicolii.
The combined area of seed beds at the eight stations is 11 acres. They now contain over 5,000,000
trees, from one to three years old. The seed sown in 1907 should produce not less than 4,000,000
trees, giving a total of over 9,000,000 in 1908.
The planting stations are sosituated that in addition to providing plant material for local use they
also serve as distributing points for other National Forests.*
The preliminary stage of forest planting within the National Forests is now past, and several of
the planting stations have this year produced trees of sufficient size to plant directly on the permanent
site. About 700,000 trees were planted dunng the Winter and Spring of 1907, the greater part in the
Dismal River. Niobrara, North Platte, San Gabriel, Santa Barbara, and Pikes Peak Naiional Forests.
At the nursery in the Dismal River National Forest more stock has reached an age suitable for
planting tlian at the other stations. This rnirsery contains approximately 2,500,000 trees. In the
Springof 1908 tliere will be about 1,000,000 trees' ready for planting in the sandhills. The species
largely in use up to this time in planting within this Forest are western j^ellow pine and jack pine.
Other species, chiefly Scotch pine, Norway pine, and Douglas fir, are being tested in the nursery
and in experimental plantations.
Tlie Pasadena and San Marcos stations are being nsed as distributing points for some of the
southern California National Forests. These two stations have a combined capacity of about
6,000, 000 trees annually.
Private owners of timberlands, large or small, may secure the aid of the Forest Service in the
care of their lands under a plan of co-operation fully outlined in circular No. 21. Any owner who
wishes to learn whether forestry might be profitable to him may apply to ttie Forest Service for a
working plan. An agent of the Service is then sent to examine the forest. If tlie piece of woodland
is small, as in farm wood lots, and management is practicable, a plan is outlined on the spot and care-
fully explained to the owner. In the case of large tracts the preparation of a working plan requires a
more prolonged study on the ground. The agent sent to examine the tract therefore fii"St finds out
whether a sufficiently good opening for paying management exists to justify the outlay. Hi? report
issubmitted totiie owner, with an estimateof the costofpreparingthe plan ifaplan is fcJnnd desirable.
If the owner desires the working plan, a force of men is sftit to collect the necessary data. A
thorough examination of the tract is made both from the Forester's and from the lumberman's
points of view. The merchantable and immature trees upon sample strips are counted and their
diameter measured, and from these data the stand on the whole tract is calculated. Volume and
rate of growth are ascertained for the important species through tree analyses— that is, through
measurements of felled trees and counts of their annual rings. Studies are made of reproiluction. of
the danger from fire, grazing, and insect attack, and of the best means of preventing such injuries.
Market and transportation facilities are carefully investigated, and the yield of timber and the char-
acter and distribution of tlie forest are mapped.
When these f acts have been collected they are worlced up Into the plan , which takes into account
the special needs or purpose of the owner, as, for instance, to secure permanent supplies of mining
timber, to maintain a game preserve, or to protect a watershed. The recommendations in the plan
enable the owner to derive from the forest the fullest and most permanent revenue which is con-
sistent with his special requirements.
FORE%T PRESERVATION BY THE VARIOUS STATES.
New York has purchased and set aside 1,500.000 acres for a forest reserve. These lands are
mainly in the Adirondack^, but partly inthe Catskill'*. Patrol, to guard against theft of timber and
esYjecially against fire, is maintained under the Superintendent of Forests, who is tlie executive
ofhcerof'the forest, fish and game commission. The planting of young trees on open places is now
going forward at th'^^ate of 500,000 seedlin;rs anmially.
rpimsvlvania has recently been most active in taking measures for the preservation of Itsforests.
In 1897, this State, to conserve the water supply, provided for the purchase of three forest reserves.

of not less than 40,000 acres each, at the heads of the three principal river systems of the State. In
accordance with this and other acts, laud has been rapidly acquired, until, at the present time, the
holdings of Pennsylvania amount to more than 700,000 acres. In 1901 Pennsylvania made Its
Bureau of Foresty aseparate department. A school for forest wardens has been established at Mont
Alio, and in connection with the protection and improvement of the forest reserves, the State is
engaged in removing the mature timber.
Minnesota, long took the lead in the excellence of a forest fire law, it being the first State to
appoint a fire warden charged with responsibility lorsuppressing fires. New York, in 1900, also made
provision for a chief file waiden. Maine and New Hampshire are other States posse.ssing excellent
nre law.s. In 1899 Michigan appointed a commission to study the forest question, and to select laud
for a State forest reserve.
Under the supervision of a trained Forester, Wisconsin is selling mature timber from its forest
reserve of '264.697 acres, which has been surveyed, mapped and placed under management. In
co-operation with the office of Indian Aflfairs and the Forest Service the state Forester supervises the
sale and cutting of timber on the Indian reservations in Wisconsin. On .June 26, 1906, Congress
passed a bill granting to Wisconsin, '20,000 acres of vacant Government lands.
Indiana took an important step forward when the State held forth encouragement to private
owners to plant trees. Since 1904, Massachusetts has had a technically trained State Forester, wlio
besides furnishii\g advice to landowners for the management of forest lands, delivers a course of
lectures at the State agricultural college. In 1905, Maryland pa.ssed a law providing for a State
Forester under much the same conditions.
raiilornia has manifested great interest in forest preservation, Under an appropriation of the
Legislatureof that State a studj' of its forest resources has been undertaken, and is now in progress in
ccr-oneration with the Forest Service. A State Forester has recentl y been appointed.
'1 he .-states now having officers cliarged with the careof forest interests are : California, Connecti-
cut, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana. Maine, Maryland, Mas.sachu setts, Michigan, Minnesota, New
Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode

post-graduate school, whose head isProf. Henry S. Graves. Harvard has had a forest school since
1903. The University of Michigan has a four- year undergraduate course In forestry. The lecturer
Is Prof. Filibert Both.
THE AMERICAN FORESTRY ASSOCIATION.
The American Forestry Association whose headquarters are at 1311 G Street, N. W., Washing-
ton, D. C. was organized in 1882, and incorporated in , January, 1897, with the following objects:
1. The promotion of a businesslike and conservative use and treatment of the forest resources
of this country.
2. The advancement of legislation tending to this end both by the States and the Congress of the
United States, the inauguration of forest administration by the Federal Government and by the
States, and the extension of sound forestrj' by all proper methods.
3. The diffusion of knowledge regarding the con.servation, management, and renewal of forests,
the proper utilization of their products, methods of reforestation of wastelands, and the planting
of trees.
The Association desires and needs as members all who are Interested in promoting the objects
for which it is organized— all who'realize the importance of using the natural resources of the country
in such a manner as not to exhaust them, or to work ruin to other interests. In particular it appeals
toownersof woodlands, to lumbermen and Forestei-s, as well as to engineers, professional and busi-
ness men who have to do with wood and its manifold uses, and to persons concerned in the conserva-
tion of water supplies for irrigation and other purposes.
The Association has over 5,000 members at the present time, residents of every State in the
Union, Canada and foreign countries. The annual dues are two dollars; a magazine is published.
The officers of the Association are:
P)e-'«i'^rn<— Secretary of Agriculture, James Wilson; Virp-Preitid/'nts-ntrLarpe—'Dr. Edward ,
Everett Hale, F. E. Weyerhaeuser, James \V. Pinchot, Dr. B. E.Fernow, ,lohn L. K.a.ul, Secretary ~
Thomas E. Will, Washington, D. C. ; ryroscyer— Otto Luebkert, Washington, D. C.
Local or State Forestry Associations have been formed in California, Colorado, Connecticut,
Iowa, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New York,
North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Utah, Washington and
Wyoming.
ARBOR DAY.
Individual States and Territories have striven to encourage the preservation of trees by setting
aside a certain day each year for the purpose of tree planting. Every State and Territory, with ths
ex<-epti(jn of Delaware and the Indian Territory, have set apart such an Arbor Day. fSee "Legal
Holidays. "]
NATIONAL PARKS.
The national parks were created during the period from 1872 to 1904. They have a total area of
about 3,654.196 acres. The more important are the Yellowstone National Park in Wj'oming and
Montana; Sequoia National Park. General (^rant National Park, and Yosemite National Park in
California; Mt. Rainier National Park in Washington, and Crater Lake National Park in Oregon.
The re.servation known as the Yellowstone National Park, .set apart for public uses by an act of

about fifty-five miles in width, from east to west,"lving chiefl.v in Northwestern Wyoming, and
overlapiiing, to asmall extent, the boundaries of IMontana, on the north, and Idaho, on the west.

(From Census Bulletin No, 77.)
Lumber and timber products, as defined by the Bureau of the Census, are manu-
factured In three classes of establishments — logging or timber camps, sawmills, and
planing mills. The raw material of the logging industry is standing timber, and its
leading product is saw logs. Among the other principal products are shisgle, stave,
and heading bolts, cooperage and excelsior stock, fence posts, hop and hoop poles,
handle stock, tan bark, piles, paving stock, railway ties, rived or split shingles, masts
and spars, ship knees, telegraph and telephone poles, wheel stock and charcoal. Logs
and bolts, products of the logging camps, constitute the raw materials of the sawmills,
and rough lumber is their leading product. The term "rough lumber" comprises all
sawed products reported in thousand feet, board measure, such as planks, boards,
scantlings, furniture stock, carriage and wagon stock, agricultural Implement stock,
bobbin and spool stock, and dimension stock. Among the other principal products of
the industry are shingles, cooperage materials, veneers, cut, sawed and sliced, and laths.
In the planing mill industry rough lumber foi-ms the principal material, with hardware,
glass, glue, etc., as other materials; while chief among its products are finished lumber,
such as ceiling, flooring, etc., and sash, doors, blinds, and interior finish.
These three industries are so closely connected that often a single establishment
includes a logging camp, a sawmill, and a planing mill. The Bureau of the Census recog-
nizes this close connection, and, although it treats each branch as a separate industry,
it gives the figures for the lumber and timber industry as a whole. Since, however,
some of the products of the lumber camp are the raw materials of the sawmill, and
some of the products of the sawmill the raw materials for the planing mill, a correct
total for the lumber and timber industry can not be obtained by adding the figures
for the three branches. Special figures are therefore given for Iiimber and timber
products. In determining these figures, moreover, planing mills not connected with
sawmills have been omitted, because the products of such mills are not. accurately
speaking, lumber and timber. Planing mills connected with sawmills would also have
been omitted had it been possible to distribute accurately the costs of operation between
the products of the saw and the products of the planer.
LUMBER AND TIMBER.
The figures given for the lumber an(%,timber industry as a whole show that 19.127
establishments, with a combined capital of $317,224, 12S, were manufacturing lumber
and timber products at the census of 1905. These establishments employed on the
average 404,626 wage-earners, and they paid $183,021,519 in wages, consumed materials
costing $183,786,210, and manufactured products valued at $r)80.022,600.
These establishments were widely distributed, for in 1005 lumber and timber products
were manufactured on a commercial scale in every State and Territory except North
Dakota. In nine States the production of lumber was the principal industry and in
twelve it was second in importance. The six leading States in the industry, with the
value of products manufactured in each, were, in 1905: Washington, $49,572,512; Wisconsin,
$44,395,766; Michigan, $40,569,335; Louisiana, $35,192,374; Minnesota, $33,183,309, and
Pennsylvania, $31,642,390.
LOGGING CAMPS.
In 1905 returns were received from 12,494 logging camps with a combined capital of
$90,454,494. These camps employed on the average 146,596 vs'age-earners, paid $66,989,795
in wages, consumed materials costing $80,412,828, and manufactin-ed products valued at
$236,131,048.
Of the total number of logging camps, 11,644. or 93.2 per cent., were conducted by
milling establishments, and 850, or 6.8 per cent., were operated independently. The
dependent logging camps reported 78 per cent, of the capital, 80 per cent, of the wage-
earners, 78 per cent, of the wages, 90 per cent, of the cost of materials, and 86 per
cent, of the value of the products. 'While it is thus apparent that the bulk of Xhe
logging industry is carried on in conjunction with sawmills, the independent camps on
an average are much larger. These independent camps follow closely the centres of
heaviest lumber production.
In the amount of production, which can most accurately be measured by the
number of thousand feet of saw logs produced, Washington ranked first, Louisiana second,
Wisconsin third, Pennsylvania fourth, and Arkansas fifth. In the value of products,
however, the five leading States were Wisconsin, Washington, Michigan, Minnesota, and
Pennsylvania.
A comparison of the figures for 1905 with those for 1900 shows that growth In the
industry since 1900 has been most rapid in the Southwestern States and in certain of the
Pacific Coast States, while a substantial and, with respect to most of the items,
uniform decline characterizes the Lake States ^s a group. That logging is relatively
declining in the Central States is also clearly indicated, and this is due, of course, to
the practical exhaustion in those States of merchantable timber in continuous bodies.
INCREASED COST OP TIMBER.
Throughout the country the value of log stumpage is increasing. The average value
per thousand feet, board measure, for the United States increased from $2.18 in 1900
to $2.59 in 1905, a rise of 41 c^nts, or 18.8 per cent. This advance in the cost of
stumpage added $11,472,115 to the total cost of sawmill material and increased the
value of lumber proportionately. The increase is due not so much to a present shortage
in the supply of lumber material in the country a.s a whole as to th^* fact that ^he
available supply of log stumpage is rapidly being bought up and withdrawn from the
market.
The conditions in certain of the States are noteworthy. In Maine. New Hampshire,
and New York the great demand for spruce to be used as a raw material in the wood
pulp industry has caused an increase in stumpage values far above the average increase
238 Limiber and Timber Products of the United States.
LUMBER AND TIMBER PRODUCTS OF THE UNITED STATES— Con^mjttrf.
reported for the country as a whole. In Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio, where little merchant-
able timber remains, the rise in stumpage values is due directly to the growing scarcity
of sawmill material for immediate use. In Kentucky and Tennessee, where the supply
is still relatively large, the sharp advances are due in large part to extensive buying
for future use. On the Pacific slope is still to be found the cheapest high-grade
stumpage in the country, though the values in this region show substantial increases
over 1900.
Practically all species of merchantable timber have increased in stumpage value.
Tellow pine, which was- the species most used at both censuses, increased in value per
thousand board feet from $1.12 to $1.08. White pine increased from $3.66 to $4.62;
Douglas fir, the chief species converted into lumber in the States of Washington and
Oregon, from 77 cents to $1.05; hemlock, from $2.56 to $3.51; oak. from $3.18 to $3.83;
spruce, from $2.26 to $3.70. and cypress, from $1.58 to $3.42. Redwood, found only in
California, advanced in value from $1.06 to $1.55, or 46.2 per cent.
INCREASED VALUE OF SAW LOGS.
The increased value of log stumpage is reflected in the increased value of the
products of the lumber camps. Saw logs, the principal product of the industry,
increased in quantity from 25.279,702 thousand feet in 1900 to 27,980,708 in 1905. a gain
of 10.7 per cent.; but they increased in value from $1.58.880.352 to $210,074,486. a gain of
32.2 per cent. The number of railway ties reported increased from 22,524,640 to 36,445,308,
or 61.8 per cent; while their value increased from $6,277,439 to $12,413,793, or 97.8 per
cent. The average value of a tie rose from 28 cents in 1900 to 34 cents in 1905. In this
connection it should be noted that the census figures do not include ties cut by farmers
during the Winter months and sold directly to the railroads. It should also be noted that
the figures are for hewn ties. Sawed ties are forming an increasing percentage of the
total production of railway ties in the country, and they are reported by the mills in
thousand feet under the heading of rough lumber. The other products of the lumber
camp generally show an increase both in quantity and value. Hemlock bark, however,
decreased in quantity from 471.802 cords to 391,691 cords, but it increased in alu«
from $1,940,057 to $2,347,463. Charcoal decreased both in quantity and value.
SAWMILLS.
At the census of 1905 the number of sawmills reported was 18.277, and their combined
capital was $3S1.621,1S4. They furnished employment on the average to 223,674 wage-
earners, paid $100,310,891 in wages, consumed materials costing $263,865,101, and manu-
factured products to the value of $491,524,662.
In this industry Wisconsin ranked first according to the value of products, Wa.^n-
Ington second, Michigan third. Louisiana fourth, and Pennsylvania fifth. In llMK)
Wisconsin was second, Washington sixth, Michigan first, Louisiana eleventh, and
Pennsylvania third.
A classification of the mills according to the quantity of lumber cut indicates that
between 1900 and 1905 the capacity of the average mill materially increased. Mil's
cutting 1.000.000 feet or more annually formed 33.3 per cent, of the total number in 1905
as contrasted with 30.6 per cent, in 1900.
The principal products of the sawmills, with their values, were as follows: Ro'is;-)
lumber. $435,708,084; shingles. $24,009,610; hoops, $3,159,973; staves, $19,082,641; headings,
$7,436,250, and laths, $5,435,968.
ALL KINDS OF LUMBER INCREASE IN COST.
The increase in the average value of all lumber was from $11.14 per thousand fe^t
in 1900 to $12.76 at the census of 1905, or 14.5 per cent. The advance extended to all
species of both conifers and hard woods, and in the case of several of them was large.
Among the conifers, yellow pine advanced from $8.59 per thousand feet to $10.10; whitp
pine, from $12.72 to $14.92; hemlock, from $9.97 to $11.91; Douglas fir, from $8.67 to
$9.51; spruce, from $11.29 to $14.03, and cypress, from $13.34 to $17.50. Oak increased
from $14.02 per thousand feet to $17.51; poplar, from $14.22 to $18.90; maple, from
$11.83 to $14.;>4; cottonwood, from $10.35 to $14.92; elm, from $11.57 to $14.45, and gum,
from $9.75 to $10.87.
PLANING MILLS.
The number of planing mills reported in 1905 was 9,486, and their combined capital
was $222,294,184. They employed 132,0.30 wage-earners, paid $66,434,440 in wages, con-
sumed materials costing $273,276,381, and manufactured products valued at $404,650,282.
In the value of products of this industry New York ranked first, Wisconsin second,
Pennsylvania third, Minnesota fourth, and Illinois fifth. The high rank of New York
in the planing mill industry is due almost entirely to the magnitude of the operations of
its independent planing mills. Illinois is also important because of its large number of
independent mills, as are also Ohio and Massachusetts.
IMPORTS FROM CANADA.
Practically all the rough lumber Imported Into the United States com«s from Canada,
that country contributing 98.2 per cent, of the total In 1905. The following Is a statement
of the boards, planks, deals, etc.. Imported fio?n Canada in the three years ending 1905:

United States, :is amended by Chapter 3592 of the Acts of the First Session of the oOth Congress.
(See also Citizen' s Expatriation Act, pa.tre 183. )
DECLARATION OF INTENTIONS.
The alien must declare upon oath before a circuit or district court of the United States or a
district or supreme court of the Territories, or a court of record of any of the States having
common law jurisdiction and a seal and clerk, of Avhich he is a resident, two years at least
prior to his admission, that it is, bona fide, his intention to become a citizen of the United States,
and to renounce forever all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign i)rihce or State, and partic-
ularly to tlie one of which he may be at the time a citizen or subject.
PETITION ON APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION.
At the time of his application for admission, which must be not less than two years nor
more than seven years after such declaration of intention, he shall make and tile a petition in
writing, signed by himself (and duly verified by the affidavits of two credible witnesses who are
citizens of the United States, and who shall state that they have personally known him to be a
resident of the United States at least five years continuously, and of the State or district at least
one year previously), in one of the courts above specified, that it is his intention to become a
citizen and reside permanently in the United States, that he is not a disbeliever in organized
government or a believer in j^blygamy, and that he absolutely and forever renounces all alle-
giance and fidelity to any foreign country of which he may at the time of filing his petition be
a, citizen or subject.
CONDITIONS FOR CITIZENSHIP.
He shall, before his final admission to citizenship, declare on oath in open court that he will
support the Constitution of the United States, and that he absolutely and entirely renounces all
foreign allegiance. If it shall appear to the satisfaction of the court that immediately preced-
ing the date of his application he has resided continuously within the United States five years
at least, and within the State or Territory where such court is held one year at least, and that
during that time he has behaved as a man of jiood moral character, attached to the principles of
the Constitution of the United States and well disposed to the good order and happiness of the
same, he may be admitted to citizenship. If the applicant has borne any hereditary title or
order of nobility he must make an express renunciation of the same. No person who believes in
oris affiliated with any organization teaching opposition to organized government or who advo-
cates or teaches the duty of unlawfully assaulting or killing any officer of any organized govern-
ment because of his official character, shall be natui-alized. No alien shall be naturalized
who cannot speak the English language! An alien soldier of the United States Army of good
character may be admitted to citizenship on one year' s previous residence.
MINORS.
An alien minor may take out his first papers on attaining the age of eighteen years, but
he can only become a citizen after having his first papers at least two years, and having resided
within the United States five years, and after having attained the age of wenty-one years.
The children of persons who have been duly naturalized, being under the age of twenty-one
vears at the time of the naturali/--ation of their parents, shall, if dwelling in the United States,
be considered as citizens thereof.
CITIZENS' CHILDREN WHO ARE BORN ABROAD.
The children of persons who now are or have been citizens of the United States are, though
born out of the limits and jurisdiction of the United States, considered as citizens thereof, (^e

CHINESE.
The naturalization of Ciiinamen is expressly prohibited by Sec. 14, Chap. 126, Laws of 1882.
PROTECTION ABROAD TO NATURALIZED CITIZENS.
Section 2,00()of the Revised Statuteso: the United States declares thafallnaturaliJied citizens
of the United States while in foreign countries are entitled to and shall receive from this Govern-
ment the same protection of persons and property which is accorded to native-born citizens.
But when a naturalized citizen shall have resided for two years in the foreign State from which
he came, it shall be presumed that he has ceased to be an American citizen, and his place of
general abode shall be deemed his place of residence during the said years. It is provided that
pitch a presuroDtion may be overcome on the presentation of satisfactory evidence txifore a.
diplomatic or consular officer of the United States. ' '
THE RIGHT OF SUFFRAGE.
The right to vote comes from the State, and is a State gift. Naturalization Is a Federal right
and is a gift of tiie Union, n.ot of any one State. In nearly one- half of the Union aliens (who
have declared intentions) vote and have the right to vote equally with naturalized or native-
born citizens. In the other half only actual citizens may vote. (See Table of Qualifications for
Voting in each State, on another page. ) The Federal naturalization laws apply to the whole
Union alike, and provide that no alien may be naturalized until after five years' residence.
Even after five years' residence and due naturalization he is not entitled to vote unless the ]a\vs
of the State confer the privilege upon hirn, and he may vote in several States six months after
lauding, if he has declared his intention, under United States law. to becopae a citizen.
INHABITANTS OF THE NEW INSULAR POSSESSIONS.
The Inhabitants of Hav/aii were declared to be citizens of the United States under the act of
1900 creating Hawaii a Territory. Under the United States Supreme Court decision in the jn^
Bular eases, in May, 1001, the inhabitants of the Philippines and Porto Rico are entitled to full
protection under the Constitution, but not to the privileges of United States citizenship until
Congress so decrees, by admitting the countries as States or organizing them as Territories.

Thr certificate of incorporation of the Independence League, dated New York, December 9,
190.5, stiites that the objects sought by the organization are:
"Voluntarily to obtain and promote by educational means aud political action such legislation as
will secure Independence among electors.
*'.\n administration of government independent of corporate and corrupt influences.
* 'The application of public property to public u.se.s.
"Effective control by the people of political parties.
".A.nd to these ends to especially support electoral reforms securing an intelligent and fair ballot,
the direct nomination of candid.-ites for public office by the people, the abolition of corrupt practices,
the public ownership and operation of those public utilities, which, in their nature are natural mon-
opolies; the relief of labor and capital from unju.st burdens, thus securing the increased production of
wealth, just wages and fair hours for those who labor, and the abolition of private monopoly— to the
end that equal rights may be secured to all and espo(fial privileges be granted to none and, further, to
unite in a common movement all societies and a.ssociations organized for like purposes, and to establish
branches of the League throughout the State of New York and the United States of America. ' '
Election Reform Jjegislation in 1907. 247
25Icction Hcforiu ILt^inUtitwx in 1907.
The following statement of legislation in the several States in 1007 revising general
and primary election methods was made by the Hon. Alton B. Parker, president of the
American Bar Association, in his address at the annual meeting of the association at Port-
land. Me., August, 1007:
Election reform is still a subject for legislative consideration, but the emphasis has
bpen largely shifit-d from the election to the control over nominations. Nearly all of the
States now regulate the choice of delegates to conventions. A new idea which has found
favor -rtuh a number of Legi.slatures is that of direct nominations. Under these
PRIMARY ELECTION LAWS
the conventions are more or less superseded, and the voter directly indicates his choice.
Such laws recently enacted vary principally as to the vote necessary to nominate, the meth-
ods by which platforms a)-e adopted and the degree of control left to the governing bodies
of the parties. There seems to be, however, a considerable tendency to abandon the theory
that a political party is a voluntary organization subject to its own rules and regulations,
and to substitute a rather complete statutory regulation.
In Indiana the law passed in 1U07 is mandatoi-y in counties having within their
limits cities of 36,(X)0 population or over, and optional in other counties. It does not apply
to candidates for National, Congressional, State, or District offices. Primaries for all parties
are heid together, but each voter must announce the party whose ticket he desires to vote.
If challenged on the ground that he is not an adherent of that party, he may make an affi-
davit that at the last election he voted for a majority of the candidates of his party and
that he will support a majority of the candidates of that partv at the next election.
The Iowa law, as amended in 1007, is mandatory, and includes all offices except Judges.
L nited States Senators, and Presidential ' electors. At the firyt primary to be held unde>r
the act each elector declares his party affiliation, which is recorded in the poll book, and
thereafter no voter is to receive a ballot of another party tmless ten days before any
primary he files a declarsTtion of a change of party affiliation. Persons receiving th5 high-
est vote, provided such vote is not less than 35 per cent, of the total party vote for that
office, are to receive the nominations.
The Missouri primary law of 1007 is mandatorv. and covers neai-ly all offices, except
certain local ones. Ballots for each party are provided, together with a non-partisan ballot,
and each voter receives the ballot which he requests. No provision is made for challenging
on the ground that a person is not a member of a certain partv. Nominations are by
plurality votes. Conventions ir.ay be held for nomination of Presidential electors, deleciates
to national conventions, and members of national committees, and for the adoption of
platforms.
Nebraska, in 1007, enacted a general primary law applicable to all offices, except in
cities of less than 2.j,000 inhabitants, and in vHlage, township, and school district offices.
Declaration of party affiliation is required, but no challenge upon that ground is provided.
The person receiving the highest vote is declared the nominee. Nominees for county ofjices
select the county committees, and these committees in turn select delegates to a conven-
tion which adopts the party platform and elects the State Central Committee. The North
Dakota primary law enacted by the last Legislature is quite similar to that of Nebraska.
A novel provision in the new primary law of the State of Washington is the indication
of first and second choice by the use of a double column opposite the names of the candi-
dates on the primary ballot. If no candidate receives more than 40 per cent, of the first
choice of votes, then the second choice votes are to be added, and the candidate receiving
the highest number of first and second choices receives the nomination. Political parties
casting less than 10 per cent, of the vote at the last previous election are allowed to nomi-
nate at conventions, held on the same day as the primaries.
California has had considerable difficulty in securing a primary election law, as no less
than two such acts have been declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. The last
Legislature adopted a resolution for a constitutional amendment which imposes upon the
Ijcgi-lature the duty of enacting pi'imary laws, and places beyond question the right of
the Legislature to act in the matter.
NOMINATIONS FOR UNITED STATES SENATORS.
United States Senators are of course governed by Federal law, and nominations under
State laws have only persuasi\'e force upon members of the Legislature. In Missouri a law
passed in 1007 provides for nominations for United States Senators at the general election.
All persons desiring to be elected to this office are required to file with the Secretary of
State their names and application. These names are placed upon the ballots under the
party heading, and the person having the highest number of votes upon the party ticket
which has a majority on general ballot in the Legislature is declared the nominee of such
party, and "all members of such party in the Legislature shall vote for such person."
In Washington any candidate for the Ijegiislature may file a declaration that during his
term of office he will always vote for the candidate for United States Senator who has
received the highest number of votes upon his party ticket at the previous primary election,
and in such case there is printed on the primary ballot opposite or below the candidate's
name "Pledged to vote for party, choice for United States Senator."
Delegates to the national convention, in the States having primary election laws, are
ordinarilj^ chosen by the old convention system. An innovation in this respect is found in
Wisconsin, where a law of the last session provides that these delegates shall be chosen at
the Spring election.
FILING OF ELECTIOr* ACCOUNTS.
The filing of expense accounts for and by candi-Iates has been adopted in Iowa, and^the
enumeration of purposes for which campaign expenses may be incurred was made in 1907 in
acts of Connecticut. California, South Dakota, and Washington. A still later development of
this idea is the limitation in the amount of campaign expenses in the Corrupt Practices laws
of California and New York, enacted in lt>07, In the former State the limitation is by per-i
248 The Single Tax,
ELECTION REFORM LEGISLATION IN X^^Ti— Continued.
centagre upon the annual salary, varying with the length of the term, and amounting in
general to 5 per cent, of the salary for each year. In the latter State the limitation is by
fixed sums, which are much more liberal than those in California, being $10,000 in case
of the Governor, $6,000 in case of other elective State officers, etc. Connecticut enforces
her Corrupt Practices act by disqualifying the incumbent and by making him Ineligible for
election or appointment for any public office for four j-ears.
The following statement of the single tax principle was written by Henry George. Sr.:
We assert as our fundamental principle the self-evident truth enunciated in the Declara-
tion of American Independence, that all men are created equal and are endowed by their
Creator with certain inalienable rights. We hold that all men are equally entitled to the
use and enjoyment of what God has created and of what is gained by the general growth
and improvement of the community of which they are a part. Therefore, no one should be
permitted to hold natural opportunities without a fair return to all for any special priv-
ilege thus accorded to him, and that that value which the growth and improvement of the
community attaches to land should be taken for the use of the community; that each is
entitled to all that his labor produces; therefore, no tax should be levied on the products
of labor.
To carry out these principles, we are in favor of raising all public revenues for
national. State, county, and municipal purposes by a single tax upon land values, irr^- .
spective of improvements, and all the obligations of all forms of direct and indirect
taxation.
Since in all our States we now levy some tax on the value of land, the single tax can
be instituted by the simple and easy way of abolishing, one after another, all otiier taxe3
now levied and commensur^tely increasing the tax on land values until we draw upon
that one source for all expenses of government, the revenue being divided between local
governments. State government, and the general government, as the revenue from direct
tax is now divided between the local and State governments, or by a direct assessment
being made by the general government upon the States and paid by them from revenues
collected in this manner. The single tax we propose is not a tax on land, and therefore
would not fall on the use of land and become a tax on labor.
It is a tax not on -land, but on the value of land. Then it would not fall on all land,
but only on valuable land, and on tliHt not in proportion to the use made of it, but in pro-
portion to its value — the premium which the user of land must pay to the owner, either-
in purchase money or rent, for permission to use valuable land. It would thus be a tax
not on the use and improvement of land, but on the ownership of land, taking what would
otherwise go to the owner as ov.-ner, and not as user.
In assessments under the single tax all values created by individual use or improve-
ment would be excluded, and the only value taken into consideration would be the value
attaching to the bare land by reason of neighborhood, etc.. to be determined by impartial
periodical assessments. Thus the farmer would have no more taxes to pay than the specu-
lator who held a similar piece of land idle, and the man who, on a city lot, erected a
valuable building would be taxed no more than the man who held a sim'ijar lot vacant.
The single tax. in short, would call upon men to contribute to the public revenues not in
proportion to what they produce or accumulate, but in proportion to the value of the natu-
ral opportunities they hold. It would compel them to pav just as much for holding land
idle as for putting it to its fullest use. The single tax. therefore, would—
1st. Take the weight, of taxation off the agricultural districts, where land has little or
no value irrespective of improvements, and put it on towns and cities, where bare land
rises to a value of millions of dollars per acre.
2d. Dispense with a multiplicity of taxes and a horde of tax-gatherers, simplify gov-
ernment, and greatly reduce its cost.
3d. Do away with the fraud, corruption, and gross inequality inseparable from our
present methods of taxation, which allow the rich to escape while they grind the poor.
Land cannot be hid or carried off. and its value can be ascertained with greater ease and
certainty than any other.
4th. Give us with all the world as perfect freedom of trade as now exists between the
States of the L'nion, thus enabling our people to share through free exchanges in all the
advantages which nature has given to other countries, or which the peculiar skill of other
peoples has enabled them to attain. It would destroy the trusts, monopolies, and corrup-
tions which are the outgrowths of the tariff. It would do away with the fines and pen-
alties now levied on any one who improves a farm, erects a house, builds a machine, or
in any way adds to the general stock of wealth. It would leave every one free to apply
labor or expend capital in production or exchange without fine or res'triction, and would
leave to each the full product of his exertion.
+ T^^'^" J*- ^^■^"■'i' on the other hand, by taking for public use that value which attaches
to land by reason of the growth and improvement of the comintlnitv, make the holding of
land unprofitable to the mere owner and profitable only to the user. It would thus make
n impossible for speculators and monopolists to hold natural opportunities unused or only
half used, and would throw open to labor the illimitable field of employment which the
earth offers to man. It would thus solve the labor problem, do away "with involuntary
poverty raise wages in all occupations to the full earnings of labor, make overproduction
impossible until all human wants are satisfied, render labor-saving inventions a blessing
to all. and cause such an enormous production and such an equitable distribution of wealth
as would give to all comfort, leisure, and participation in the advantages of an advancing
civilization, in securing to each individual equal right to the u.'^e of the earth. It is also
a proper function of .society to maintain and control all public wavs for the transportation
of persons and property, and the transmission of intelligence; arid also to maintain and
sSlv rlaul^r«*'h«''„1:rnV"«^'^l''' ^'"' ^"'■"'^^'"S ^-^ter, gasf and' all otherthingT that nece".

National Platforms of Political Parties. 249
Katioual l^latforms of J^oUtCcal i^artics,
PLATFORM OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, ADOPTED AT ST. LOUIS, MO.,
JULY 8, 1904.
The Democratic party of the United States, in national convention assembled, declares
its devotion to the essential principles of the Democratic faith which bring us together in
party communion.
Under them local self-government and national unity and prosperity were alike estab-
lished. They underlaid our independence, the structure of our free republic, and every
Democratic extension, from Louisiana to California, and Texas to Oregon, which preserves
faithfully in all the States the tie between taxation and representation. They yet inspire
masses of our people, guarding jealously their rights and liberties, and cherishing their
fraternity, peace and orderly development. They remind us of our duties and responsi-
bilities as citizens, and impress upon us, particularly at this time, the necessity of
reform and the rescue of the administration of government from the headstrong, arbitrary
and spasmodic methods which distract business by uncertainty, and pervade the pubhc
mind wich dread, distrust, and perturbation.
Fandamental Principles.— The application of these fundamental principles to the
living issues of the day is the first step toward the assured peace, safety, and progress of
our nation. Freedom of the press, of conscience, and of speech; equality before the law
of ail citizens; the right of trial by jury; freedom of the person defended by the writ of
habeas corpus; liberty of personal contract untrammeled by sumptuary laws; the
supremacy of the civil over the military authority; a well-disciplined militia; the separa-
tion of church and State; economy in expenditures; low taxes; that labor may be lightly
burdened; the prompt and sacred fulfilment of public and private obligations; fidelity
to treaties; peace and friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none; absolute
acquiescence in the will of the majority, the vital principle of republics— these are
doctrines which Democracy has established as proverbs of the nation, and they should be
constantly invoked, preached, resorted to and enforced.
Capital and Labor. — "We favor the enactment and administration of laws giving
labor and capital impartially their just rights. Capital and labor ought not to be enemies.
Each is necessary to the other. Each has its rights, but the rights of labor are certainly
BO less "vested," no less "sacred," and no less "inalienable" than the rights of capital.
Constitutional Guarantees. — Constitutional guarantees are violated whenever any
citizen is denied the right to labor, acquire, and enjoy property or reside where interests
jor inclination may determine. Any denial thereof by individuals, organizations, or
governments should be summarily rebuked and punished.
We deny the right of any executive to disregard or suspend any constitutional privilege
or limitation. Obedience to the laws and respect for their requirements are alike the
supreme duty of the citizen and the official.
The military should be used only to support and maintain the law. We unqualifiedly
condemn its employment for the summary banishment of citizens without trial or for the
control of flections.
We approve the measure which passed the United States Senate In 1896, but which a
Republican Congress has ever since refused to enact, relating to contempts in Federal
Courts and providing for trial by jury in cases of indirect contempt.
Waterways. — We favor liberal appropriations for the improvement of waterways of
the country. When any waterway like the Mississippi River is of sufficent importance
to demand special aid of the Government, such aid should be extended with a definite
plan of continuous work until permanent improvement is secured.
We oppose the Republican policy of starving home development In order to feed the
greed for conquest and the appetite for national "prestige" and display of strength.
Economy of Administration. — Large reductions can easily be made in the
annual expenditures of the Government without Impairing the efficiency of any branch of
the public service, and we shall Insist upon the strictest economy and frugality compatible
with vigorous and efficent civil, military and naval administration as a right of the
people too clear to be denied or witBheld.
We favor honesty in the public service, the enforcement of honesty in the public
service, and to that end a thorough legislative investigation of those executive depart-
ments of the Government already known to teem with corruption, as well as other
departments suspected of harboring corruption, and the punishment of ascertained corrup-
tionists, without fear or favor or regard to persons. The persistent and deliberate refusal
of both the Senate and House of Representatives to permit such investigation to be
made demonstrates that only by a change In the executive and in the legislative
departments can complete exposures, punishment, and correction be obtained.
Fe<leral Government Contracts Witli Triists.— We condemn the action of
the Republican party In Congress In refusing to prohibit an executive department from
entering into contracts with convicted trusts or unlawful combinations in restraint of inter-
state trade. We believe that one of the best methods of procuring economy and honesty
In the public service is to have public officials, from the occupant of the White House
down to the lowest of them, return as nearly as may be to Jeffersonlan simplicity of living.
Executive U-s-nrpation.— We favor the nomination and election of a President
Imbued with the principles of the Constitution, who will set his face sternly against
executive usurpation of legislative and judicial functions, whether that usurpation be
veiled under the guise of executive construction of existing laws, or whether it take refuge
in the tyrant's pleas of necessity or superior wisdom.
Imperialism. — ^We favor the preservation, so far as we can, of an open door for
the world's commerce in the Orient without any unnecessary entanglement in Oriental
and European affairs, and without arbitrary, unlimited, irresponsible, and absolute govern-
jnent anywhere within our jurisdiction. We oppose, as fervently as did George Washington

himself, an indefinite, irresponsible, discretionary, and vagxie absolutism and a policy of
colonial exploitation, no matter where or by whom invoked or exercised; we believe with
Thomas Jefferson and John Adams that no government has a right to make one set of
laws for those "at home" and another and a different set of laws, absolute in their
character, for those "in the colonies." All men under the American flag are entitled to
the protection of the institutions whose emblem the flag is; if they are inherently unfit
for those institutions then they are inherently unfit to be members of the American body
politic. Wherever there may exist a people incapable of being governed under American
'laws, in consonance with the American Constitution, the territory of that people ought
not to be part of the American domain.
We insist that we ought to do for the Filipinos what we have already done for the
Cubans, and it is our duty to make that promise now, and upon suitable guarantees of
piotection to citizens of our own and other countries resident there at the time of our
withdrawal, set the Filipino people upon their feet, free and independent, to work out
their own destiny. The endeavor of the Secretary of War, by pledging the Government's
indorsement for "promoters" in the Philippine Islands, to make the United States a
partner in speculative legislation of the archipelago, which was only temporarily held up
by the opposition of the Democratic Senators in the last session, will, if successful, lead
to entanglements from which it will be difficult to escape.
Tlie Turilf.— The Democratic party has been, and will continue to be, the consistent
opponent of that class of tariff legislation by which certain interests have been permitted,
through Congressional favor, to draw a heavy tribute from the American people. This
monstrous perversion of those equal opportunities which our political institutions were
established to secure has caused what may once hive been Infant industries to become the
greatest combinations of capital that the world has ever known. These especial favorites
of the Government have, through trust methods, been converted into monopolies, thus
bringing to an end domestic competition, which was the only alleged check upon the
extravagant profits made possible by the protective system. These industrial combinations,
by the financial assistance they can give, now control the policy of the Republican party.
We denounce protection as a robbery of the many to enrich the few. and we favor
a tariff limited to the needs of the Government, economically administered, and so levied
as not to discriminate against any industrj', class, or section, to the end that the burden
of taxation shall be distributed as equally as possible.
We favor a revision and a gradual reduction of the tariff by the friends of the masses
for the commonwealth, and not by the friends of its abuses, its extortions and its dis-
criminations, keeping in view the ultimate end of "equality of burdens and equality of
opportunities," and the constitutional purpose of raising a revenue by taxation, to wit,
the .support of the Federal Government in all its integrity and virility, but in simplicity.
Trnsts nnil XJnla^^tvful Combinations. — We recognize that the gigantic tj-usts
and combinations designed to enable capital to secure more than its just share of the
joint products of capital and labor, and which have been fostered and promoted under
Republican rule, are a menace to beneficial competition and an obstacle to permanent
business prosperity. A private monopoly is indefensible and intolerable.
Individual equality of opportunity and free competition are essential to a healthy and
permanent commercial prosperity, and any trust or monopoly tending to destroy these by
controlling production, restricting competition, or fixing prices, should be prohibited and
punished by law. We especially denounce rebates and discrimination by transportation
companies as the mpst potent agency in promoting and strengthening these unlawful
conspiracies against trade.
We demand an enlargement of the powers of the Interstate Commerce Commission, to
the end that the travelling public and shippers of this Government may have prompt and
adequate relief from the abuses to which they are subjected in the matter of transportation.
We demand a strict enforcement of existing civil and criminal statutes against all such
trusts, combinations, and monopolies; and w^e demand the enactment of such further
legislation as may be necessary to effectually suppress them.
Any trust or unlawful combination engaged in interstate commerce w-hloh is monop-
olizing any branch of business or production should not be permitted to transact business
outside of the State of its origin. Whenever it shall be established in any court of
competent jurisdiction that such monopolization exists, such prohibition Bhould be
enforced through comprehensive laws to be enacted on the subject.
Reclamation of Ari«l Lauds and Domestic Development.— We congratu-
late our Western citizens upon the passage of the law known as the Newlands Irrigation
Act for the irrigation and reclamation of the arid lands of the West — a measure framed
by a Democrat. i)assed in the Senate by a non-partisan vote, and passed in the House
against the opposition of almost all Republican leaders by a vote the majority of which
was Democratic. We call attention to this great Democratic measure, broad and com-
prehensive as it is, working automatically throughout all time without further action of
Congress, until the reclamation of all the lands in the arid West capable of reclamation
is accomplished, reserving the lands reclaimed for home seekers in small tracts, and rigidly
guarding against land monopoly, as an evidence of the policy of domestic development
contemplated by the Democratic party, should it be placed in power.
Isthmian Canal.— The Democracy, when intrusted with power, will construct the
Panama Canal speedily, honestly and economically, thereby giving to our people what
Democrats have always contended for— a great interoceanic canal, fiirnlshing shorter and
cheaper lines of transportation and broader and less trammeled trade relations with the
other peoples of the world.
American Citizensliip.- We pledge ourselves to insist upon the just and lawful
protection of our citizens at home and abroad, and to use all proper measures to secure
for them, whether native-born or naturalized, and without distinction of race or creed, the
equal protection of laws and the enjoyment of all rights and privileges open to them

under the covenants of our treaties of friendship and commerce; and if under existing
treaties the right of travel and sojourn is denied to American citizens, or recognition is
withheld from American passports by any countries on the ground of race or creed, we
favor the beginning of negotiations with the governments of such countries to secure by
new treaties the removal of these unjust discriminations. We demand that all over the
world a duly authenticated passport issued by the Government of the United States to an
American citizen shall be proof of the fact that he is an American citizen, and shall
entitle him to the treatment due him as such.
Election of Senators by tlie People.— "We favor the election of United States
Senators by the direct vote of the people.
Stntehood for Territories.— We favor the admission of the Territory of Okla-
homa and the Indian Territory. We also favor the immediate admission of Arizona and
New Mexico as sepai-ate States, and a territorial government for Alaska and Porto Rico.
We hold that the officials appointed to administer the government of any Territory, as
well as with the district of Alaska, should be bona fide residents at the time of their
appointment of the Territory or district in which their duties are to be performed.
Condeninntion of Poly«-amy.— \V"e demand the extermination of polygamy within
the jurisdiction of the United States and the complete separation of church and State m
political affairs.
Merchant Marine.— We denounce the ship subsidy bill recently passed by the
United States Senate as an iniquitous appropriation of public funds for private purposes
and a wasteful, illogical, and useless attempt to overcome by subsidy the obstructions
raised by Republican legislation to the .growth and development of American commerce
on the sea.
We favor the upbuilding of a merchant marine without new or additional burdens
upon the people and without bounties from the public treasury.
Reciprocity.— We favor liberal trade arrangements with Canada, and with peoples
of other countries, where these can be entered into with benefit to American agriculture,
manufactures, mining, or comm.erce.
3Ionroe Doctrine.— We favor the maintenance of the Monroe Doctrine in its full
integrity.
Army. — We favor the reduction of the ormy and of army expenditure to the point
historically demonstrated to be safe and sufficient.
Pensions and Our Soldiers and Sailors.— The Democracy would secure to
the surviving soldiers and sailors and their dependents generous pensions, not by an
arbitrary executive order, but by legislation which we grateful people stand ready to
enact. Our soldiers and sailors who defend with their lives the Constitution and the laws
have a sacred interest in their just administration. Th^ must therefore share with
us the humiliation with which we have witnessed the Exaltation of court favorites,
without distinguished service, over the scarred heroes of many battles; or aggrandized
by legislative appropriation out of the treasuries of a prostrate people, in violation of act
of Congress, which fixes the compensation and allowances of the military officers.
Civil Service. — The Democratic party stands committed to the principles of civil-
service reform, and we demand their honest, just and impartial enforcement. We denounce
the Republican party for its continuous and sinister encroachments upon the spirit and
operation of civil-service rules, whereby it has arbitrarily dispensed with examinations
for office in the interests of favorites and employed all manner of devices to overreach
and set aside the principles upon which the civil service was established.
School and Race Questions. — The race question has brought countless woes to
this country. The calm wisdom of the American people should see to it that it brings
no more. To revive the dead and hateful race and sectional animosities in any part of
our common country means confusion, distraction of business, and the reopening of wounds
now happily healed. North, South, East, and West have but recently stood together in line
of battle from the walls of Peking to the hills of Santiago, and as sharers of a common
flory and a common destiny we should sliare fraternally tlie common burdens. We. there-
ore, deprecate and condemn the bourbonlike, selfish, and narrow apirit of the recent
Republican convention at Chicago, which sought to kindle anew the embers of racial and
sectional strife, and we appeal from it to the sober common sense and patriotic spirit of
the American peoi)le.
The Republican Administration.— The existing Republican administration has
been spasmodic, erratic, sensational, spectacular, and arbitrary. It has made itself a
satire upon the Congress, the courts, and upon the settled practices and usages of national
and international law.
It summoned the Congress into hasty and futile extra session, and virtuallv adjourned
It. leaving behind in its flight from Washington uncalled calendars and unaccomplished
tasks.
It has made war. which is the sole power of Congress, without its authority, thereby
usurping one of its fundamental prerogatives. It violated a plain statute of the United
btates as well as plain treaty obligations, international usages, and constitutional law; and
has done so under pretence of executing a great public policy, which could have been more
easily effected lawfully, consitutionally, and with honor.
It forced strained and unnatural constructions upon statutes, usurping judicial inter-
pretation and substituting Congressional enactment decree.
It withdrew from Congress their customary duties of investigation, which have hereto-
fore made the representatives of the people and the States the terror of evildoers.
„i,M coiViUcted a secretive investigation of its own and boasted of a few sample convicts,
wnile It threw a broad coverlet over the bureaus which had been their chosen field of
operative abuses and kept in power the superior officers under whose administration
the crimes had been committed.
^„t Vu ordered assault upon some monopolies, but. paralyzed by its first victory, it flung
^l^L^oL K ^, A */H5® ?i^^ ^"^'^ out that it would not "run amuck"— leaving its future
purposes beclouded by its vacillations.
T^T.iT,;^^^''^^^^*** *'**^ Country.— Conducting the campaign upon this declaration of our
S«P l? if"" purposes, we invoke for our candidates the support, not only of our great
ana time-honored organization, but also the active assistance of all our fellow-citizens

who, disregarding past differences upon questions no longer in issue, desire the perpetua-
tion of our Constitutional Government as framed and established by the fathers of the
republic.
PLATFORM OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, ADOPTED AT CHICAGO, ILL.,
JUNE 22, 1904.
Fifty years ago the Republican party came into existence, dedicated, among other
purposes, to the great task of arresting the extension of human slavery. In 1800 it elected
Its first President. During twenty-four of the forty-four years which have elapsed since
the election of Lincoln, the Republican party has held complete control of the Government.
For eighteen more of the forty-four years it has held partial control through the possession
of one or two branches of the Government, while the Democratic party during the same
period has had complete control for only two years.
This long tenure of power by the Republican party is not due to chance. It is a
demonstration that the Republican party has commanded the confidence of the Ameris-an
people for nearly two generations to a degree never equalled in our history, and has
displayed a high capacity for rule and government which has been made even more
conspicuous by the incapacity and infirmity of purpose shown by its opponents.
The Republican party entered upon its present period of complete supremacy in 1807.
"We have every right to congratulate ourselves upon the work since then accomplished, for
it has added lustre even to the traditions of the party which carried the Government
through the storms of civil war. We then found the country, after four years of Demo^
cratic rule, in evil plight, oppressed with misfortune, and doubtful of the future. Pub ic
credit had been lowered, the revenues were declining, the debt was growing, the Adminis-
tration's attitude toward Spain was feeble and mortifying, the standard of values was
threatened and uncertain, labor was unemployed, business was sunk in the depression
which had succeeded the panic of 1S!),3, hope was faint, and confidence was gone.
We met these unhappy conditions vigorously, effectively, and at once. We replaced
a Democratic tariff law based on free-trade principles and garnishnl with sectional pro-
tection by a consistent protective tariff, and industry, freed from suppression and stimu-
lated by the encouragement of wise lav.-s, has expanded to a degree never before known,
has conquered new markets and has created a volume of exports which has surpassed
imagination. Under the Dingley Tariff labor has been fully employed, wages have risen
and all industries have revived and prospered.
The Gold Stamlard EstablisliCMl.— We firmly established the gold standard,
which was then menaced with destruction. Confidence returned to business, and with
confidence and unexampled prosperity.
For deficient revenues supplemented by improvident issues of bonds we gave the
country an income which produced a large surplus, and which enabled us only four
years after the Spanish war had closed to remove over one hundred millions of annual
war taxes, reduce the public debt and lower the interest charges of tht> Government.
The public credit, which had been so lowered that in time of peace a Democratic
administration made large loans at extravagant rates of interest in order to pay current
expenditures, rose under Reiiublican administration to its highest point, and enabled
us to borrow at 2 per cent., even in time of war.
We refused to palter longer with the miseries of Cuba. We fought a quick and
victorious war with Spain. We set Cuba free, governed the island for three years, and
then gave it to the Cuban people with order restored, with ample revenues, with education
and public health established, free from debt, and connected with the United States by
wise provisions for our mutual interests.
"U e have organized the government of Porto Rico, and its people now enjoy peace,
freedom, order, and prosperity.
Accoinplisliinents in Philippines.— In the Philippines we have .suppressed
insurrection, established order, and given to life and property a security never known
there before. We have organized civil government, made it effective and strong in admin-
istration, and have conferred upon the people of those islands the largest civil liberty
they have ever enjoyed. By our possession of the Philippines we were enabled to take
prompt and effective action in the relief of the legations at 'Peking, and a decisive part
in preventing the partition and preserving the integrity of China.
The Panama Canal Beftnn.— The possession of a route for an Isthmian canal, so
long the dream of American statesmanship, is now an accomplished fact. The great woik
of connecting the Pacific and Atlantic by a canal is at last begun, and is due to the
Republican partj'.
Other Aeeomplishnients.— We have passed laws which will bring the arid lands
of the United States within the area of cultivation.
We have reorganized the army and put it In ihe highest state of efficiency.
We have passed laws for the improvement and support of the militia.
We have pushed forward the building of the navy, the defence and protection of our
honor and our interests.
Our administration of the great departments of the Government has been honest and
efficent, and wherever wrongdoing has been discovered the Republican administration
has not hesitated to probe the evil and bring offenders to justice without regard to party
or political ties.
Anti-Trust IjB'^vs Enforced.— Laws enacted by the Republican party which the
Democratic party failed to enforce, and which were intended for the protection of the
public against the unjust discrimination or the illegal encroachments of vast aggregations
of capital, have been fearlessly enforced by a Republican President, and new laws
Insuring reasonable publicity as to the operations of gi'eat corporations and providing
additional remedies for the prevention of discrimination in freight rates have been passed
by a Republican Congress.
In this record of achievement during the past eight years may be read the pledges
which the Republican party has fulfilled. We promise to continue these policies and we
declare our constant adherence to the following principles:
Tlie Tarifff— Protection which guards and develop.'} our industries js 9- cardinal poUcy
Kational Platforms of Political Parties. 253
NATIONAL PLATFORMS OF POLITICAL PARTIES— Consumed,
of the Republican party. The measure of protection should always at least equal the
difference in the cost of production at home and abroad. We insist upon the maintenance
of the principles of protection, and therefore rates of duty should be readjusted only when
conditions have so changed that the public interest demands their alteration, but this
work cannot safely be committed to any other hands than those of the Republican party.
To intrust it to the Democratic party is to invite disaster.
Whether, as in 181)2, the Democratic pai-ty declared the protective tariff unconstitu-
tional, or whether it demands tariff reform or tariff revision, its real object is always
the destruction of the protective system. However specious the name, the purpose is ever
the same. A Democratic tariff has always been followed by business adversity; a
Republican tariff by business prosperity. To a Republican Congress and a Republican
President this great question can be safely intrusted. When, the only free-trade country
among the great nations agitates a return to protection, the chief protective country
should not falter in maintaining it.
Coinniercial Reciprocity Secured. — We have extended widely our foreign mar-
kets, and we believe in the adoption of all practicable methods for their further extension,
including commercial reciprocity wherever reciprocal arrangements can be effected con-
sistent with the principles of protection, and without injury to American agriculture,
American labor or any American industry.
liitesrity of the National Currency. — We believe it to be the duty of the
Republican party to uphold the gold standard and the integrity and value of our national
currency. The maintenance of the gold standard, established by the Republican party,
cannot safely be committed to the Democratic party, which resisted its adoption, and has
never given any proof since that time of belief In it or fidelity to it.
Upbnildins- tlie Blercliant Marine.— While every other industry has prospered
under tlie fostering aid of Republican legislation, American shipping engaged in foreign
trade, in competition with the low cost of construction, low wages, and heavy subsidies of
foreign governments, has not for many years received from the Government of the Unit(?d
States adequate encouragement of ariy kind. We therefore favor legislation which will
encourage and build up the American merchant marine, and we cordially approve the
legislation of the last Congress, which created the Merchant Marine Commission to
investigate and report upon this subject.
A Navy for Defence.— A navy powerful enough to defend the United States against
any attack, to uphold the Monroe Doctrine, and to watch over our commerce, is essential
to the safety and the welfare of the American people. To maintain such a navy is the
fixed policy of the Republican party.
Chinese Exclusion.— We cordially approve the attitude of President Roosevelt and
Congress in regard to the exclusion of Chinese labor and promise a continuance of the
Republican policy in that direction.
Civil Service L,avr Enforced. — The Civil Service Law was placed on the statute
books by the Republican party, which has always sustained it. and w^e renew our former
declarations that it shall be thoroughly and honestly enforced.
W"e are always mindful of the country's debt to the soldiers and sailors of the United
States, and we believe in making ample provision for them, and in the liberal administra-
tion of the pension laws.
International Arbitration. — We favor the peaceful settlement of international
differences by arbitration.
We commend the vigorous efforts made by the Administration to protect American
citizens in foreign lands and pledge ourselves to insist upon the just and equal protection
of all our citizens abroad. It is the unquestioned duty of the Government to procure for
.all our citizens, without distinction, the rights of travel and sojourn in friendly countries,
and we declare ourselves in favor of all proper efforts tending; to that end.
Our great interests and our growing commerce In the Orient reaider the condition of
China of high importance to the United States. We cordially commend the policy pursued
in that direction by the Administrations of President McKinley and President Roosevelt.
Negro Disfrancliisenient. — ^We favor such Congressional action as shall determine
whether by special discriminations the elective franchise in any State has been unconstitu-
tionally limited, and if such is the case, we demand that representation in Congress and
In the Electoral College shall be proportionately reduced as directed by the Constitution
of the United States.
Capital and Labor.— Combinations of capital and labor are the results of the
economic movement of the age, but neither must be permitted to infringe upon the rights
and interests of the people. Such combinations, when lawfully formed for lawful purposes,
are alike entitled to the protection of the laws, but both are subject to the laws, and
neither can be permitted to break them.
Tribute to 31clvinley — The great statesman and patriotic American, William
McKinley, who was re-elected by the Republican party to the Presidency four years ago.
was assassinated just at the threshhold or his second term. The entire nation mourned his
imtlmely death, and did that justice to his great qualities of mind and character which
history will confirm and repeat.
President Roosevelt Euloffized.— The American people were fortunate in his
successor, to whom they turned with a trust and confidence which have been fully justified.
] 'resident Roosevelt brought to the great responsibilities thus sadly forced upon him a
clear head, a brave heart, an earnest patriotism, and high ideals of public duty and public
service. True to the principles of the Republican party and to the policies which that
party had declared, he has also shown himself ready for every emergency and has met
new and vital questions with ability and with success.
The confidence of the people in his justice, inspired by his public career, enabled him
to render personally an inestimable service to the country by bringing about a settlement
of the coal strike, which threatened such disastrous results at "the opening of Winter in 1902.
Our foreign policy under his administration has not only been able, vigorous, and
dignified, but In the highest degree successful. The complicated questions which aroser
in Venezuela were settled in such a way by President Roosevelt that the Monroe Doctrine
was sigrnally vindicated, and the cause of peace and arbitration greatly advanced.

not only secured to us the canal route, but avoided foreign complications which might
have been of a very serious character.
He has continued the policy of President McKinley in the Orient and our position in
China, signalized by our recent commercial treaty with that empire, has never been so high.
He secured the tribunal by which the vexed and perilous question of the Alaskan
boundary was finally settled.
Whenever crimes against humanity have been perpetrated which have shocked our
people, his protest has been made and our good offices have been tendered, but always
with due regard to international obligations.
Under his guidance we find ourselves at peace with all the world, and never were
we more respected or our wishes more regarded by foreign nations.
Pre-eminently successful in regard to our foreign relations, he has been equally for-
tunate in dealing with domestic questions. The country has known that the public credit
and the national currency were absolutely safe in the hands of his Administration. In the
enforcement of the laws he has shown not only courage, but the wisdom which under-
stands that to permit lawc to be violated or disregarded opens the door to anarchy, while
the just enforcement of the law is the soundest conservatism. He has held firmly to the
fundamental American doctrine that all men must obey the law; that there must be no
distinction between rich and poor, between sti-ong and weak; but that justice and equal
protection under the law must be secured to every citizen without regard to race, creed
or condition.
His administration throughout has been vigorous and honorable, high-minded and
patriotic. We commend it without reservation to the consideiate judgment of the
American people.
PLATFORM OF THE PEOPLE'S PARTY, ADOPTED AT SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,
JULY 4, 1904.
The People's parts' reaffirms its adherence to the basic truths of the Omaha platform of
1802. and of the subsequent platforms of 1896 and 1000. In session in its fourth national
convention on July 4,. 1004. in the city of Springfield. 111., it draws inspiration from
the day that saw the birth of the nation as well as its own birth as a party, and also from-
the soul of him who lived at its present place of meeting. We renew our "allegiance to the
old-fashioned American spirit that gave this nation existence, and made it distinctive
among the peoples of the earth. We again sound the key-note of the Declaration of
Independence, that all men are created equal in a political sense, which was the sense in
which that instrument, being ,a, political document, intended that the utterance should be
understood. We assert that the departure from this fundamental truth is responsible for
the ills from which we suffer as a nation, that the giving of special privileges to the
few has enabled them to dominate the many, thereby tending to destroy the political
equality which is the cornerstone of democratic government.
Holding fast to the truths of the fathers, we vigorously protest against the spirit
of mammonism and of thinly veiled monarchy that is invading certain sections of our
national life, and of the very administration itself. This is a nation of peace, and we
deplore the appeal to the spirit of force and militarism which is shown in ill-advised and
vainglorious boasting and in more harmful ways in the denial of the rights of man
under martial law.
A political democracy and an industrial despotism cannot exist side by side, and
now^here is this truth more plainly shown than in the gigantic transportation monopolies
which have bred all sorts of kindred trusts, subverted the governments of many of the
States, or established their official agents in the National Government. We submit that
It is better for the Government to own the railroads than for the railroads to own the
Government, and that one or the other alternative seems inevitable.
We call the attention of our fellow-citizens to the fact that the surrender of both of
the old parties to corporative influences leaves the People's party the only party of
reform In the nation.
Therefore we submit the following platform of principles to the American people:
Money and Bnnlcs. — The Issuing of money is a function of government, and should
never be delegated to corporations or individuals. * The Constitution gives to Congress alone
power to issue money and re,gulate its value.
We therefore demand that all money shall be issued by the Government in such
quantity as shall maintain a stability in prices, every dollar to be full legal tender, none
of wliich shall be a debt redeemable in other money.
Saving's Banks. — We demand that postal savings banks be established by the gov-
ernment for the safe deposit of the savings of the people. ^
Ijabor.— We believe in the right of labor to organize for the benefit and protection
of those who toll, and pledge the efforts of the People's party to preserve this right
inviolate. Capital is organized and has no right to deny to labor the privilege which it
claims for itself. We feel that intelligent organization of labor is essential; that it raises
the standard of workmanship; promotes the efficiency, intelligence, independence, and
character of the wage earner. We believe with Abraham Lincoln thai labor is prior to
capital, and is not its slave, but its companion, and we plead for that broad spirit of
toleratinrn and justice which will promote industrial peace through the observance of the
principles of voluntary arbitration.
We favor the enactment of legislation looking to the improvement of conditions for
wage earners, the abolition of child labor, the suppression of sweat shops, and of convict
labor in competition with free labor, and the exclusion from American shores of foreign
pauper labor.
We favor the shorter work day. and declare that if eight hours constitute a day's labor
In Government service, that eight hours should constitute a day's labor in factories,
workshops and mines. ^
InitiatiT-e and Referendnni.— As a means of placing all public questions directly
under the control of the people, we demand that legal provision be made under which the
2^ational Platforms of Political Parties. 265
NATIONAL PLATFORMS OF POLITICAL PARTIES— Con<mw€cf.
people may exercise the initiative, referendum, and proportional representation, and direct
vote for all public officers with the right of recall.
TI»e LiUiid. — Land, including- all tiie natural sources of wealth, is a heritage of all
the people, and should not be monopolized for speculative purposes, and alien ownership of
land should be prohibited.
Uuuian Ri KlitN.— We demand a return to the original interpretation of the Con-
stitution and a fair and impartial enforcement of laws under it, and denounce government
by injunction and imprisonment without the right of trial by jury.
Trusts and Monopoly. — To prevent unjust discrimination and monopoly the gov-
ernment should own and control the railroads, and those public utilities which in their
nature are monopolies. To perfect the postal sei'vice. the Government should own and
operate the g-eneral telegraph and telephone systems and provide a parcels post.
As to these trusta and monopolies which are not public utilities or natural monopolies,
we demand that those special privileges which they now enjoy, and which alone enable
them to exist, should be immediately withdrawn. Corporations being the creatures of
government should be subjected to such governmental regulations and control as will
adequately protect the public. We demand the taxation Jof monopoly privileges, while
they remain in private hands, to the extent of the value or the privilege granted.
We demand that Congress shall enact a general law uniformly regulating the power and
duties of ail incorporated companies doing interstate business.
PLATFORM OF THE SOCIALIST PARTY, ADOPTED AT CHICAGO, ILL.,
MAY 5, 1904.
I. — The Socialist party, in convention assembled, makes its appeal to the American
people as the defender and preserver of the ideal of liberty and self-government, in which
the nation was born; as the only political movement standing, for the progxamine and prin-
ciples by which the liberty of the individual may become a fact; as the only political organ-
ization that is democratic, and that has for its pui'pose the democratizing of the whole
of society.
To this idea of libortj' the Republican and Democratic parties are equally false. They
alike struggle for power to maintain and profit by an industrial system which can be pre-
served only by the complete overthrow of such liberties as we already have, and by the still
further enslavement and degradation of labor.
Our American institutions came into the world in the name of freedom. They have
been seized upon by the capitalist class as the means of rooting out the idea of freedoin
from among the people. Our State and National Legislatures have become the mere agencies
of great protected interests. These interests control the appointments and decisions of the
judges of our courts. They have come into what is practically a private ownership of all
the functions and forces of government. They are using these to betray and conquer
foreign and weaker peoples in order to establish new markets for the surplus goods which
the people make, but are too poor to buy. They are gradually so invading and restricting
the right of suffrage as to take away unawares the right of the worker to a vote or voice
in public affairs. By enacting new, and misinterpreting old, laws, they are preparing to
attack the liberty of the individual even to speak or think for himself, or for the common
good.
By controlling all the sources of social revenue, the possessing class is able to silence
what might be the voice of protest against the passing of liberty and the coming of tyranny.
It completely controls the university and public school, the pulpit and the press, and the
arts and literature. By making these economically dependent upon itself, it has brought
all the forms of public teaching into servile submission to its own interests.
Our political institutions are also being used as the destroyers of that individual prop-
erty upon which all liberty and opportunity depend. The promise of economic independence
to each man was one of the faiths upon which our institutions were founded. But under
the guise of defending private property, capitalism is using our politica.l institutions to
make it impossible for the vast majority of human beings ever to become possessors of
private property in the means of life.
Capitalism is the enemy and destroyer of essential private property. Its development
is through the legalized confiscation of all that the labor of the working class produces,
above its subsistence-wage. The private ownership of the means of employment grounds
society in an economic slavery which renders intellectual and political tyranny inevitable.
Socialism comes so to organize industry and society that every individual shall be
secure in that private property in the means of life upon which his liberty of being, thought
and action depend. It comes to rescue the people from the fast increasing and successful
assault of capitalism upon the liberty of the individual.
II.— As an American socialist party, we pledge our fidelity to the principles of inter-
national socialism, as embodied in the united thought and action of the socialists of all
nations. In the industrial development already accomplished, the Interests of the world's
workers are sepai-ated by no national botxndaries. The condition of the most exploited and
oppressed workers, in the most remote places of the earth. Inevitably tends to drag down
all the workers of the world to the same level. The tendency of the competitive wage sys-
tem is to make labor's lowest condition the measure or rule of its universal condition.
Industry and finance are no longer national, but international, in both organization and
results. The chief significance of national boundaries, and of the so-called patriotisms
which the ruling class of each nation is seeking to revive, is the power which these give
to capitalism to keep the workers of the world from uniting, and to throw them against
each other in the struggles of contending capitalist interests for the control of the yet unex-
ploited markets of the world or the remaining sources of profit.
The socialist movement, therefore, is a world-movement. It knows of no conflicts of
interests between the workers of one nation and the workers of another. It stands for the
256 National JPlatfonns of Political Parties.

freedom of the workers of all natians; and, in so standing, it makes for the full freedom of
all humanity.
III. — The socialist movement owes its birth and growth to that economic development
or world-process which is rapidly separating a working or producing class fi-om a possessing
or capitalistic class. The class that produces nothing possesses labor's fruits, and the
ojiportunities and enjoyments these fruits afford, while the class that does the world's
real work has increasing economic uncertainty, and physical and intellectual misery, for its
portion.
The fact that these two classes have not yet become fully conscious of their distinction
from each other; the fact that the lines of division and interests nxay not yet be clearly
drawn, does not change the fact of the class conflict.
This class struggle is due to the private ownership of the means of employment, or the
tools of production. Whenever and wherever man owned his own lard and tools, and by
them produced only the things which he used, economic independence was possible. But
even thousands, enters into almost every article produced. Production is now social or
collective. Practically everything is made or done by many men — sometimes separated by
seas or continents — working together for the same end. But this co-operation in production
Is not for the direct use of the things made by the workers who make them, but for the
profit of the owner of the tools and means of production; and to this is due the present
division of society into two classes; and from it have sprung all the miseries, inharmonies
and contradictions of our civilization.
Between these two classes there can be no possible compromise or identity of interests,
any more than there can be peace in the mfdst of war, or light in the midst of darkness.
A society based upon this class division carries in itself the seeds of its own destruction.
Such a society is founded in fimdamental injustice. There can be no possible basis for
social peace, for individual freedom, for mental and moral harmony, except in the con-
scious and complete triumph of the working class as tlie only class that has the right or
power to be.
IV.— The socialist programme is not a theory imposed upon society for its acceptance or
rejection. It is but the interpretation of what Is, sooner or later, inevitable. Capitalism is
already struggling to its destruction. It is no longer competent to organize or administer
the work of the world, or even to preserve itself. The captains of industry are appalled at
their own inability to control or direct the rapidly socializing forces of industry. The
so-called trust is but a sign and form of the developing socialization of the world's work.
The universal increase of the uncertainty of employment, the universal capitalist deter-
mination to break down the unity of labor in the trades unions, the widespread apprehen-
sions of impending change, reveal that the institutions of capitalist society are passing
under the power of inhering forces that will soon destroy them.
Into the midst of the strain and crisis of civilization the socialist movement comes as
the only conservative force. If the world is to be saved from chaos, from universal dis-
order and misery, it must be by the union of the workers of all nations in the socialist
movement. The Socialist party comes with the only proposition or programme for Intelli-
gently and deliberately organizing the nation for the common good of all its citizens. It is
the first time that the mind of man has ever been directed toward the conscious organiza-
tion of society.
Socialism means that all those things upon which the people in common depend shall
by the people in common be owned and administered. It means that the tools of employ-
ment shall belong to their creators and users; that all production shall be for the direct
use of the producers; that the making of goods for profit shall come to an end; that we
shall all be workers together; and that all opportunities shall be open and equal to all men.
V. — To the end that the workers may seize every possible advantage that may strengthen
them to gain complete control of the powers of government, and thereby the sooner estab-
lish the co-operative commonwealth, the Socialist party pledges itself to watch and work,
in both the economic and the political struggle, for each successive immediate interest of
the working class; for shortened days of labor and increases of wages; for the insurance
of the workers against accident, sickness and lack of employment; for pensions for aged
and exhausted workers; for the jjublic ownership of the means of transportation, communi-
cation and exchange; for the graduated taxation of incomes, inheritances, franchises and
land values, the proceeds to be applied to the public employment and improvement of the
condition of the workers; for the complete education of children and their freedom from
the workshops; for the prevention of the use of the military against labor in the settlement
of strikes; for the free administration of justice; for popular government, Including Initia-
tive, referendum, proportional representation, equal suffrage of men and women, municipal
home rule, and the recall of officers by their constituents; and for every gain or advantage
for the workers that may be wrested from the capitalist system, and that may relieve the
suffering and strengthen the hands of labor. We lay upon every man elected to any execu-
tive or legislative office the first duty of striving to procure whatever is for the workers'
most immediate interest, and for whatever will lessen the economic and political powers
of the capitalist and increase the like powers of the worker. •
But, in so doing, we are using these remedial measures as means to the one great end
of the co-operative commonwealth. Such measures of relief as we may be able to force
from capitalism are but a preparation of the workers to seize the whole powers of govern-
ment, in order that they may thereby lay hold of the whole system of industry, and thus
come into their rightful inheritance.
To this end we pledge ourselves, as the party of the working class, to use all political
power, as fast as it shall be intrusted to us by our fellow-workers, both for their Immediate
Interests and for their ultimate and complete emancipation. To this end we appeal to all
the workers of America, and to all who will lend their lives to the service of the workers
in their struggle to gain their own, and to all who will nobly and disinterestedly give
their days and energies unto the workers' cause, to cast in their lot and faith with the
Socialist party. Our appeal for the trust and suffrage of our fellow-workers is at once
au appeal for their common good and freedom, and for the freedom and blossoming of our

common humanity. In pledging^ ourselves, and those we represent, to be faithful to the
appeal which we make, we believe that we are but preparing the soil of that economic
freedom from which will spi'ing the freedom of the whole man.
PLATFORM OF THE SOCIALIST LABOR PARTY, ADOPTED AT NEW YORK
JULY, 1904.
The Socialist Labor party of America, in convention assembled, reasserts the inalienable
right of man to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
• We hold that the purpose of government is to secure to every citizen the enjoyment
of this right; but, taught by experience, we hold furthermore that such right is illusory to
the majority of the people, to wit, the working class, under the present system of economic
inequ^-lity that is essentially destructive of their life, their liberty, and their happiness.
We hold that the true theory of politics is that the machinery of government must be
controlled by the whole people; but again, taught by experience, we hold, furthermore,, that
the true theory of economics is that the means of production must likewise be owned,
operated and controlled by the people in common. Man cannot exercise his right of life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness without the ownership of the land on and the tool with
■which to work. Deprived of these, his life, his liberty, and his fate fall into the hands of
the class that owns those essentials for work and production.
We hold that the existing contradiction between the .theory of democratic government
and the fact of a despotic economic system — the private ownership of the natural and
social opportunities — divides the people into two classes — the capitalist class and the working
class; throws society into the convulsions of the class struggle, and perverts government to
the exclusive benefit of the capitalist class.
Thus labor is robbed of the wealth which it alone produces, is denied the means of self-
employment, and, by compulsory idleness in wage slavery, is even deprived of the neces-
saries of life.
Against such a system the Socialist Labor party raises the banner of revolt, and
demands the unconditional surrender of the capitalist class.
The time is fast coming when, in the natural course of social evolution, this system,
through the destructive action of its failures and crisis on the one hand, and the construc-
tive tendencies of its trusts and other capitalist combinations on the other hand, will have
worked out its own downfall.
We, therefore, call upon the wage-workers of America to organize under the banner of
the Socialist Labor party into a class-conscious body, aware of its rights, and determined
to conquer them. <
And we also call upon all other intelligent citizens to place themselves squarely upon
the ground of working-class interests, and join us in this mighty and noble work of human
emancipation, so that we may put summary end to the existing barbarous class conflict by-
placing the land and all the means of production, transportation and distribution into the
hands of the people as a collective body, and substituting the co-operative commonwealth
for the present state of planless production, industrial war and social disorder — a common-
wealth in which every worker shall have the free exercise and full benefit of his faculties,
multiplied by all the modern factors of civilization.
PLATFORM OF THE PROHIBITION PARTY ADOPTED AT INDIANAPOLIS,
JUNE 30, 1904.
The Prohibition party, in national convention, assembled, at Indianapolis, June 30. 1904,
recognizing t)iat the chief end of all government is the establishment of those principles
of righteousness and justice which have been revealed to men as the will of the ever-living
God, desiring His blessing upon our national life, and believing in the perpetuation of tha
high Ideals of government of the people, by the people, and for the people, established
by our fathers, makes the following declaration of principles and purposes:
The Most Important Qnestiou. in American Politics.— The widely prevail-
ing system of the licensed and legalized sale of alpoholic bevei-ages is so ruinous to individ-
ual intere-ts, so fnimical to public welfare, so destructive of national wealth, and so sub-
versive of the rights of great masses of our citizenship, that the destruction of the traffic
is, and for years has been, the most important question in American politics,
Isrnored 1>t Democratic and Republican liCaders.— We denounce the lack
of statesmanship exhibited by the leaders of the Democratic and Republican parties in their
refusal to recognize the paramount importaijce of this question, and the cowardice with
which the leaders of these parties have courted the favor of those whose selfish interests
are advanced by the continuation and augmentation of the traffic, until to-day the influ-
ence of the liquor traffic practically dominates national^ State and local government
throughout the nation.
Reprnlation a Failure— License Money a Bribe. — We declare the truth,
demonstrated by the experience of half a century, that all methods of dealing with the
liquor traffic which recognize its right to exist, in any form, under any system of license
or tax or regulation, have proved powerless to remove its evils, and useless as checks upon
its growth, while the insignificant public revenues which have accrued therefrom have
seared the public conscience against a recognition of its iniquity.
Prohibitory Lavir, Administered by Its Friends, the Only Hope. — ^W«
call public attention to the fact, proved by the experience of more than fifty years, that to
258 National Platforms of Political Parties.
NATIONAL PLATFORMS OP POLITICAL FARTIY.^— Continued.
secure the enactment and enforcement of prohibitory legislation, in which alone lies the
nope of the protection of the people from the liquor traffic, it is necessary that the legisla-
tive, executive and judicial branches of government should be in the hands of a political
party in harmony with the prohibition principle, and pledged to its embodiment in law,
and to the execution of those laws.
Party Will Enact and Enforce Proliibitory Lavrs.— We pledge the Prohibi-
tion party, wherever given power by the suffragists of the people, to the enactment and
enforcement of laws prohibiting and abolishing the manufacture, importation, transporta-
tion and sale of alcoholic beverages.
No Otlier Issue of Equal Importance. — We declare that there is not only no
other issue of equal importance before the American people to-day, but that the so-called
issues upon which the Democratic and Republican parties seek to divide the electorate of
the country are, in large part, subterfuges* under the cover of which they wrangle for the
spoils of office.
Attitude on Other Public Questions.— Recognizing that the intelligent voters
of the country may properly ask our attitude upon other questions of public concern, we
declare ourselves in favor of:
The impartial enforcement of all law.
The safeguarding of the people's rights by a rigid application of the principles of
justice to all combinations and organizations of capital and labor.
The recognition of the fact that the right of suffrage should depend upon the mental
and moral qualifications of the citizen.
A more intimate relation between the people and government, by a wise application of
the principle of the initiative and referendum.
Such changes in our laws as will place tariff schedules in the hands of an onani-
partisan commission.
The application of uniform laws to all our country and dependencies.
The election of United States Senators by vote of the people.
The extension and honest administration of the Civil Service laws.
The safeguarding of every citizen in every place under the government of the people
of the United States, in all the rights guaranteed by the laws and the Constitution.
International arbitration, and we declare that our nation should contribute, in every
manner consistent with national dignity, to the permanent establishment of peace between
all nations.
The reform of our divorce laws, the final extirpation of polygamy, and the total over-
throw of the present shameful system of the illegal sanction of the social evil, with its
unspeakable ti-affic in ginls, by the municipal authorities of almost all our cities/'
PLATFORM OF THE UNITED CHRISTIAN PASTY, ADOPTED AT ST. LOUIS,
MO., MAY 2, 1904.
We, the United Christian party, in national mass convention assembled in His name,
in the City of St. Louis, Mo., May 2, 1904, acknowledging Almighty God as our Father and
Jesus Christ as our leader, commander, governor and king; believing that the time has
now come when all Christians and patriots should unite on the day of election and vote
direct on all questions of vital importance, and apply Christian golden rule to all gov-
ernment by and for the people, do hereby declare that the platform and purpose of the
United Christian party is and shall be to work and stand for union in His name, according
to the Lord's Prayer, for the fulfilment of God's law through direct legislation of the
people governed by the golden rule, regardless of sex, creed, color, nationality.
As an expression of consent or allegiance on the part of the governed, in harmony with
Ihe above statements —
We also declare in favor of direct legislation providing for an equal standard of morals
for both sexes, and most vigorously oppose the ti-affic in girls and all forms of the
social evil.
We are opposed to war and condemn mob violence.
We favor government ownership of coal mines, oil wells and public utilities.
We are opposed to government revenue from the manufacture and sale of intoxicating
liquor as a beverage.
We are opposed to all trusts and combines contrary to the welfare of the common
people, and declare that Christian government through direct legislation will regulate the
trusts and labor problem according to the golden rule.
PREAMBLE TO THE PLATFORM OF THE CONTINENTAL PARTY, ADOPTED
AT CHICAGO, ILL., AUGUST 31, 1904.
The Continental party of the United States, in first national convention assembled, in
the City of Chicago, August 31, 1904, announces the following platform and principles:
The objects and ends of the Continental party, as set forth in its charter, are: "To
enlist the co-operation of legal voters throughout the United States in earnest and hon-
orable efforts to repeal unjust laws in every branch of government, and, in their stead,
to secure the enactment and enforcement of other laws better adapted to 'establish justice.
Insure domestic tranquillity, promote the general welfare,' and secure the election or
appointment to office of honest and capable men."
Paramount Issues. — The questions pertaining to money, the tariff, trans]»ortation,
trusts and corporations, the race problem, the labor problem, are pre-eminently live issues.
Which can never be permanently settled until they are settled right.

eStatt J^atts J^latforms of 1907 on NatConal ^nuutn.
There were but few State conventions of political parties in 1007. Although there
was a State election in New York, the candidates were nominated by the Democratic and
Republican State Committees, which issued no declarations of principles. The Kentucky
Democrats held no convention, the ticket having been nominated at a State primary the
previous year. A large part of the platforms adopted by the conventions of 1907 was
devoted to local issues. The following were the references to national affairs:
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S ADMINISTRATION.
Kentiicliy.— We approve the policies and commend the ability, courage and in-
tegrity of President Theodore Roosevelt and his administration, and, without expressing
preference for any candidate, favor the selection of the national convention for President
of one in full accord with those policies and who will energetically carry them out in the
interests of all the people.
aiaryland.— The Maryland Republican platform heartily indorsed the national
administration.
• Massaclmsetts.— We heartily commend the administration of President Roosevelt.
It has been progressive, courageous and effective; it has promoted the welfare of the
whole people, and has enforced the laws and compelled their observance by all persons,
rich and poor, high and low alike.
Nebraska.— As the representatives of the Republicans of Nebraska, in State con-
vention assembled, we again commend the inspiring character and undaunted leadership
of Theodora Roosevelt. We especially indorse what he has accomplished, with the
support of a Republican Congress, toward subjecting the overweening railroads engaged
in interstate commerce to the regulating arm of the Government, and in curbing the
rapacity of the lawless trusts by forcing them to desist from their criminal practices.
These policies have our unqualified approval, and in order that no backward step be
taken, we will insist that his successor be a man- whose record pledges a continuance
of the distinctive policies of the Roosevelt administration.
NetT- Jersey.— Wo indorse the administration of President Roosevelt as courageous
and patriotic, distinguished by intelligent, earnest and successful efforts to promote the
welfare of all the people. Continued prosperity has been maintained in every branch of
industry, and the position of the nation at home and abroad is stronger and better than
at any time in its history.
Pennsylvania.— This convention heartily renews the expression of confidence that
has come so frequently, emphatically and directly from the Republicans of Pennsylvania
in the integrity, wisdom and revotion to the public good of Theodore Roosevelt; with
equal heartiness we record our approval of the work of his administration, and we
pledge the Republican party of Pennsylvania to a loyal adherence to the policies inspired
by the principle of equality, of right, and opportunity to all.
Rhode Island.— We affirm our allegiance to the national Republican party and
to the declaration of principles on which it was continued in control of thg national
Government in 1904, which principles are being faithfully carried into effect by the
official acts of the present administration.
TARIFF REVISION AND PROTECTION.
Dii:MOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.
Maryland.— We feel that it is incumbent on us now to declare that no taxation
can be justified or excused which takes from the pockets of the people more than Is
reasonably required to defray the cost of an economical and frugal administration of
the Government in all its departments, and we therefore favor such a revision of our
existing tariff as will relieve the great masses of the people from its oppressive inequali-
ties, discriminations and burdens, and put an end to the intolerable wrong that extorts
from them an annual excess of revenue of $90,000,000 withdrawn from circulation and
piled up in the Treasury as a constant temptation to demoralizing extravagance.
Massachusetts (Whitney Democrats).— We regard the reform of the tariff as the
paramount issue now before the people. We denounce the present Dingley tariff — levying
its tribute upon all, but bearing with the heaviest weight on those of the smallest
means — as the greatest system of graft in the country and as the most potent agency
of political and legislative corruption. The crying necessity of reducing excessive rates
of duty is now recognized alike by consumers and producers. We protest against the
Republican programme of delaying action, for political reasons, until after the next
Presidential election, which means intrusting --the revision, if one be undertaken even
then, chiefly to the beneficiaries of present oppressive duties, in exchange for campaign
assistance to the party in power. The great advance in the cost of all necessities of
life, due largely to the tariff, has brought home to every household the evil of main-
taining excessive duties for the benefit of favored interests. The increase in the prices
of all the materials and supplies required by our great producing industries and trans-
portation interests, also due in great measure to the tariff, has imposed such heavy
burdens upon them as to largely offset the benefits of an increased volume of business.
The prosperity of the country, already receding, rests upon a doubtful basis as long
as the artificial stimulus of excessive duties is so large a factor. We demand: 1. That
the food supplies of the people and such raw materials of industry as coal, iron ore,
lumber, wood pulp, hides, sole leather and wool, be placed upon the free list. 2. That
all duties be reduced as rapidly as possible without undue" disturbance of established
industries to rates which will cover only the difference between the cost of manufacturing
here and abroad, to be ascertained by expert investigation. 3. That manufacturers who
take advantage of the tariff regularly to make lower prices on their products to for-
eigners than to American citizens, or to establish oppressive monopolies, be deprived of
the protection which they thus abuse. * * * We demand in particular free and
unrestricted trade with Canada, that the people of New England may enjoy the natural
advantages Of their geographical position, and we believe that our northern neighbors.

if properly approached, will still be found willing' to meet us half-way in negotiating
mutually benefioial commercial agreements.
Nebraska. — We favor an immediate revision of the tariff by the redtiction of
import duty. Articles entering into competition with articles controlled by trusts should
be placed upon the free list; material reductions should be made in the tariff upon the
necessaries of life, and reductions should be made in such other schedules as may be
necessary to restore the tariff to a revenue basis. , .
REPUBLICAN CONVENTIONS,
Masaaohusetts. — The Republican party of Massachusetts reaffirms its belief in
the principles of protection to American industries and American labor, under which the
United States has prospered and developed both in foreign and domestic trade during
the last ten years to a greater extent than in any similar period in the nation's life.
Massachusetts has never in its history enjoyed employment for its mechanics, laborers
and artisans more continuously than since the inauguration of the late President
McKinley. The product of its industries exceeds that of any previous similar period.
Industrial depressions have been unknown, and to-day the v.-age earners are enjoying
the highest rate of wages ever in existence; the hours of employment are less and the
demand for the products of Massachusetts was never greater. The Democratic party
not only did not propose any treaties of reciprocity during the two terms that they
had possession of the Presidential office, but in 1893 they repealed all reciprocity
treaties which had .been enacted by the Republicans. The only propositions for rtac-
iprocity have originated with the Republican party, and it is to our party that the
country will look with confidence for such treaties in the future. The National Repub-
lican Convention in 1908 will be called upon to present a platform defining the issues
of the Presidential election. A majority of the Republican men*bers of the Massachusetts
delegation in Congress in January, 1905, declared in favor of the consideration of the
question of the revision of the existing tariff in accordance with the .principles of
protection at the earliest practicable time. We commend for adoption by the next
National Republican Convention a resolution calling the Congress to meet in special
session to determine upon amendments to the present tariff law, or the enactment
of a new measure to meet changed conditions, to remove duties needless either for
revenue or protection, and make such modifications as experience may have shown to
be necessary.
Pennsylvania. — The Republicans of Pennsylvania believe that the payroll of
American labor should continue to be higher than that of any other nation, and the
average American home a model for the world. President Roosevelt has publicly
declared that "the general tariff policy to which, without regard to changes in detail,
I believe this country should be irrevocably committed, is fundamentally based upon
ample recognition of the difference in labor cost here and abroad." We indorse those
declarations and declare our unfaltering adherence to the great principle of protection
to American labor, American industries and American products. ,
TRUSTS.
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.
Massaolmsetts (Bartlett Democrats'). — Our party is founded upon the principle
of equal, rights to all men in the pursuit of happiness, and seeks to destroy all privilege
which usurps these rigiits. The present 4)olitical problem is industrial monopoly, which
rests upon privileges conferred by law or enjoyed contrary to law. Vast aggregations
of capital have absorbed our industrial system, have monopolized our money and credit
systems in the banks, the lands from which our wealth is drawn, the railroads and
ships which carry our goods and persons, while the tax laws perfect the system of
plunder by excluding interference from without. From the food we eat. the shelter
we provide, the clothing we wear, the comforts we enjoy., monopoly has taken its
tribute until vast wealth has increased in the hands of its beneficiaries, while the
purchasing . power of labor has constantly decreased. As the wealth of monopoly has
Increased it has strengthened its hold upon the politics of the country and dominated
the governments of nation and State. Believing that industrial despotism and political
liberty cannot exist together, we are opposed to private monopoly in all its forms and
to the laws which give it life.
Nebraska. — A private monopoly is indefensible and intolerable. We, therefore,
favor the vigorous enforcement of the criminal law against trusts and trust magnates,
and demand the enactment of such additional legislation as may be necessary to make
it Impossible for a private monopoly to exist in the United States. Among the additional
remedies we specify three— first, a law compelling corporations engaged in interstate
commerce to sell to all purchasers in all parts of the country on the same terms,
after making due allowance for cost of carriage; second, a law preventing the dupli-
cation of directors among competing corporations, and, third, a license system which
■will, without abridging the right of each State to create corporations, or its right to
regulate as it will foreign corporations doing business within its limits, make it
necessary for a manufacturing or trading corporation engaged in interstate commerce
to take out a Federal license before it shall be permitted to control as much as twenty-
five per cent, of the product in which it deals, the license to protect the public from
watered stock and to prohibit the control by such corporation of more than 50 per
cent, of the total amount of any product consumed in the United States. We insist
upon the recognition of the distinction between the natural man and the artificial
person, called a corporation, and we favor the enactment of such law as may be
necessary to compel foreign corporations to submit their legal disputes to the courts
of the States in which they do business, and thus place themselves upon the same
footing as domestic corporations.
NeTV Jersey.— We favor the enactment of stringent anti-monopoly laws.
Pennsylvania. — While we recognize the right of capital, within this Common-
wealth, in all leg"itimate lines of enterprise, to combine for the increase of business,
for enhancement of profit by enlarging productive capacity and decreasing the cost or
production, thus lessening the price to the consumer, yet when such combination in its
purpose, or effect, creates, or tends to create, a monopoly in its production, to restrain
trade, or to stifle competition, to increase the cost to the consumer, or to control the

market for the labor it employs, it violates the spirit of our laws, becomes inimical to
public welfare and peace, and should be so regxilated, controlled or prohibited by law
as to amply protect the public interests.
REPUBLICAN CONVENTIONS.
Pennsylvania. — We. commend the course of the Fifty-ninth Congress, which,
without attempted confiscation or reprisal of vested rights or any spirit of unfairness
and injustice to those who have interests in carrying and other corporations, aeverthe-
less passed more important legislation than any preceding Congress for the proper
regulation and control of corporations and trusts and the punishment of improper

REGULATION OF RAILROADS.
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.
3Iass.achnsetts (Bartlett Democrats). — The most dangerous form of privilege is a
monopoly of transpoi;tation, „ and our highways of commerce and travel, now delivered
to private corporations, should be restored to the control of the people and conducted
for the public good rather than for private profit and speculation. By unlawful rebates
and discriminations the railroads of the nation have connived to ruin legitimate business
and give control of our staple products to their powerful favorites. By capital inflations
they have burdened our industry; by wreckings and consolidations they are rapidly
bringing our railroad systems into a national monopoly.
Nehraslca. — We assert the right of Congress to exercise complete control over
interstate commerce, and we assert the right of each State to exercise just as complete
control over commerce within its borders. We demand such an enlargement of the
powers of national and State railway commissions as may be necessary to give full
protection to persons and places froia discrimination and extortion. . We believe that
both the nation and the various £"tates should, first, ascertain the present value of the
railroads, measured by the cost of production; second, prohibit the issue of any more
watered stock or fictitious capitalization; third, prohibit the railroads from engaging
in any busine.ss which brings them into competition with their shippers; and, fourth,
reduce transportation rates until they reach a point whei-e they will yield only a
reasonable return on the present value of the roads — such reasonable return being
defined as a return sufficient to keep the stock of the roads at par when such roads
are honestly capitalized. To supplement the reductions made by the various States in
passenger rates, we favor an act of Congress, requiring the railroads to sell interstate
tickets at a rate not exceeding the sum of the local rates.
RESERVED RIGHTS OF THE STATES.
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.
Maryland.— We feel that the present political situation upon national issues
demands from us an emphatic reaffirmance of that time-honored article of Democratic
faith again and again declared in our platform, that our Federal Government is a
government of limited and carefully enumerated powers derived solely from the Con-
stitution, and that the powers not therein granted or necessarily implied a^e reserved
to the States, respectively, or to the people.
3Ia.s.sacli'nsetts (Whitney Democrats). — We reaffirm the Democratic doctrine.-
never more important to the welfare of the country than to-day. of preserving in their
full integrity the powers reserved to the several States under the Federal Constitution,
and we declare ourselves unalterably opposed to the invasion or the surrender of the
rights of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If at any time changed conditions
demand the transfer of additional powers from the States to the Federal Government
that end should be attained only by amending the Constitution in the manner provided
in that instrument, not by executive usurpation or by strained judicial construction.
We maintain that the Constitution and law of thte Commonwealth are so framed, and
our people are possessed of such capacity for self-government, that our local affairs can
be properly managed and controlled without the aid or interference of the Federal
Government; and we condemn the declaration of Governor Guild in favor of bringing
our corporations under national control as an unwarranted reflection upon the intelligence
of the people and the fidelity of their representatives.
Nebraslva.— Believing, with Jefferson, in "the support of the State governments
in all their rights as the most competent administrations for our domestic concerns and
the surest bulwark against anti-republican tendencies;" and in "the preservation of
the general Government in its whole constitutional vigor, as the sheet anchor of our
peace at home and safetv abroad;" we are opposed to the centralization implied in
the suggestions, now frequently made, that the powers of the general Government
should be extended by judicial construction. While we favor the exercise by the general
Government of alt 'ts constitutional authority for the prevention of monopoly and for
the regulation of interstate commerce, we insist that Federal remedies shall be added
to, and not substituted for, State remedies.
LABOR LEGISLATION.
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.
Massachnsefts (Bartlett Democrats).— As monopoly has extended its control over
our irwiustries the rights of the toilers who produce the wealth have been negletcted or
denied. The gains from improved machinery and increasing prosperity should accrue
to 4abor in the form of increased wages and shorter hours of labor. We approve legis-
lation to secure these results, and so far as they cannot be secured by laws, we tender
our support to the trade unions which seek to obtain them. We espeicially demand in
labor disputes the right of trial by jury on contempt proceedings, and the exclusion of
courts of equity from jurisdiction of offences against the criminal laws.
Mebraslia.— We favor the establishment of State and national boards of arbitration,
which shall have authority to investigate either upon their own initiative or at the
request of either party, any industrial dispute between corporate employers and their
employees, the findings of such boards not to be binding upon either party, but to serve
262 State Party J^latfornis of 1907 on Kational Issues.
as a guide to public opinion and as a means of conciliation between labor and capital.
We favor the eig'ht-hour day. We are opposed to "government by injunction," the
ej'stem under which the writ of injunction is used to deny to laboring men the protection
of trial by jury.
MISCELLANEOUS.
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.
Miiryland. — Fully realizing the necessity of putting a stop to the intolerable
evils of bribery and corruption in our elections, we favor the passage of a corrupt
practices act that will go to the very root of this frightful menace to our free institutions,
and by adequate provisions and penalties which elsewhere have proved to be effective
will make the buying of votes too odious and dangerous to be hereafter attempted.
Maryland offers many and great attractions to worthy and industrious foreigners
who desire to become American citizens, and we favor energetic measures to encourage
and pi'omote the introduction into our State of bodies of irpmigrants of good character,
who will actively contribute by their diligence and industry to the improvement and
development of our agricultural resources.
3Iassaclmsetts (Bartlett Democrats'!. — Our people should have the power by a
majority vote to reverse and direct the acts of its Legislature.
Nebraska. — We favor the election of United States Senators by direct vote of the
people, and regard this reform as the gateway to all other national reforms. We favor
an income tax as a part of our revenue system, and we urge the submission of a consti-
tutional amendment specifically authorizing Congress to levy and collect a tax upon
indflvidual and corporate incom.es, to the end that wealth may bear its proportionate
share of the burdens of the Federal Government. We favor a national inheritance tax
to reach the "swollen fortunes" already in existence, but we believe that it is bettor
to permanently prevent "swollen fortunes" by abolishing the privileges and favoritism
upon which they are based.
We favor full protection, by both national and State governments within their
respective spheres, of all foreigners residing in the United States under treaty, but we
are opposed to the admission of Asiatic emigrants who cannot be amalgamated with our
population, or whose presence among us would raise a race issue and involve us in
diplomatic controversies with Oriental powers.
We condemn the experiment in imperialism as an inexcusable blunder which has
involved us in an enormous expense, brought us weakness instead of strength, and laid
our nation open to the charge of abandoning the fundamental doctrine of self-government.
We favor an immediate declaration of the nation's purpose to recognize the independence of
the Philippine Islands as soon as a staple government can be established, such independence
to be guaranteed by us, as we guarantee' the independence of Cuba, until the neutraliza-
tion of the islands can be secured by treaty with other powers. In recognizing the
independence of the Philippines our Government should retain such land as may be
necessary for coaling stations and naval bases.
REPUBLICAN CONVENTIONS.
Massachusetts.— We urge the Congress to give further consideration to the subject
of the re-establishment of the merchant marine. Massachusetts was among the foremost
in the maintenance of foreign commerce in the earlier periods of the nation's history.
This country, with a protected coastwise commerce and a coast line unparalleled in
extent and importance, ought to be a strong competitor for the commerce of the world.
For the carrying of our mails we are now dependent upon the service afforded by
steamers of other nations, and our country thereby helps them to maintain efficient
agencies for the extension of their foreign trade, to the exclusion of our own.
Nebraska. — While not presuming to forestall the action of any future convention.
w^e express the belief that the Republicans of Nebraska recognize in the Hon. William
H. Taft, of Ohio, one whose personal character and whose long public service mark
him as pre-eminently the man under whose leadership these policies would be per-
petuated.
We believe the Federal Judiciary act should be amended to define the citizenship
of interstate corporations for the purpose of jurisdiction of Federal courts by providing
that for the purposes of original jurisdiction and jurisdiction on removal from State
courts, or Federal courts, a corporation shall be deemed a citizen of every State where
it has filed or is required by the law of that State to file in the manner required of
domestic corporations, its articles of incorporation. And, in addition thereto, that
every foreign corporation, or its successors, assigns or lessees, exercising or claiming
the right to exercise the right of eminent domain, under a State law, shall be deemed a
citizen of that State for the purposes of jurisdiction of Federal courts.
We favor the enactment of a Federal law, and, if necessary, an amendment to
the Federal Constitution, which will forbid the Federal courts from issuing writs of
injunction against .State officers charged by law with the enforcement of State statutes.
Pennsylvania. — Pennsylvania has just pride in presenting to her sister States
as a worthy successor to Theodore Roosevelt the distingviished son, who from the
beginning was foremost in counsel and most effective in practical support of the policies
for the regulation of corporate power which have so endeared the President to the
people of this country. It was Philander Chase Knox who in 1902 pointed out that an
amendment to the Constitution of the United States was unnecessary to enable Congress
to redress the wrongful exercise of power by corporations in their relation to Interstate
commerce, and who made that opinion good by the legal proceedings which he successfully
prosecuted for the violation of the interstate commerce and anti-trust laws of the
nation, and also by the amendments to those laws which he recommended and prepared,
and which subsequently met the approval of Congress. * • * Believing in him and
.supporting him earnestly as we do, we hereby indorse him on behalf of the Republican
party of this Commonwealth for the great office of President of the LTnited States, and
we have the honor of resenting him now to the Republicans of our sister States as
Pennsylvania's candidate for the Presidency before the Republican nominating con-
vention in June, 1908,

7'he Electoral Vote.
K\)t }3rcsi^nitial iSUctiou of 1908.
The next Presidential election will take place on Tuesday, Novembers, 1908.
The President and Vice-President of the United States are chosen by oflicials termed "Electors"
in each State, who ai'e, under existing Slate laws, chosen by the qualified voters thereof by ballot, on
the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November in every fourth year preceding the year in which
the Presidential term expires.
The Constitution of the United States pj-escribes that each State shall "appoint, ' ' in such manner
as the Legislature thereof may direct, a number of electors equal to the whole number of Senatorsand
Representatives to which the State mav be entitled in Congress; but no Senator or Representative or
person liolding an olHce of trust or profit under the United States shall be an elector. The Constitu-
tion requires tluit tlie day when electors are chosen shall be the same throughout the United States.
At the beginning of our Government most of the electors were clioseu bythe Legislatures of their
respective States, the people liaving no direct participation in their choice; and one State. Sontli Caro-
lina, continued that practice down to tlie brealcing out of tlie civil war. But in all the States now
the electors are, under the direction of State laws, chosen by the people on a general State ticket.
The manner in which the chosen electors meet and ballot for a President and Vice-President of
the United States is provided for in Article XII. of tlie Constitution, and is as follows:
The electors shall meet in their respective States, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, a»
least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same State with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as
President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-l'resident ; and they shall make distinct lists of all persons
voteil for as I'resident, and of all persons voted for as Vice-President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall
sign and certify, and transmit, sealed, to the seat of government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate.
The sante article then prescribes the mode in which the Congress shall count the ballots of the
electors, and announce the result thereof, which is as follows:
The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates, and
the votes shall then be counted ; the person havinsf the greatest number of votes for President shall be President, if such
number bf a majority of the whole number of electors appointed ; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons
having the highest numbers, not exceeding three, on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Kepresentatives
shall choose immediately, by ballot, the I'resident. But in choosing the President the votes shall be taken by States, the repre-
sentation from each State having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds
of the States, and a majority of all the States shall be necessary to a choice. And if the House of Itepresentatives shall r:o,4
choose a President, whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then
the Vice-President shall act as I'resident, as in the case of the death or other, constitutional disability of the President. The
person having the great-st number of votes as Vice-President shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the
whole number of electors appointed ; and if no person have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list the
Senate shall choose the Vice-President ; a quorum for the purpose shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators,
and a majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a cnoice.
The procedure of the two houses, in case the returns of the election of electors from any State are
disputed, is provided in the "Electoral Count" act, passed by the Forty-nintli Congress. The act
directs that tlie Presidential electors shall meet and give tlieir votes on the second INfonday in January
next following their election. It fixes tlie time when Congress shall be in session to count the ballots
as the second Wednesday in February succeeding the meeting of the electors.
The Constitution also defines who is eligible for President of the United States, as follows:
No person except a natural-born citizen or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of this Constitution
shall be eligible to the ofl5ce of President ; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the
age of thirty-five years.
The qualifications for Vice-President are the same.

SALARY OF THE PRESIDENT.
The salary of the President of the United States was the cause of discussion in the First Congress,
In view of the fact that the Constitution declared that the President should receive compensation for
his services. Washington had notified his fellow citizens that he desired no salarv. The limits
suggested in Congress ranged from $15,000 to S70,000. The salary was finally placed at $25,000
and this remained the compensation until Presidelit Grant's second term (March 3, 1873), when
it was increased to $50,000, the present sum. Ciiapter 2918 of the Laws of the Second Session of
the Fifty-ninth Congress, Approved March 4, 1907, appropriated *'for travelling expenses of the
President of the United States, to be expended at his discretion and accounted for by his certificate
solely, $25,000." This will probably be continued in the future. Tlie appropriation for the care
of the White House and its stable and greenhouses wasiu lb07, $50,000.

AGGEEGATB POPULAR VOTE AND ELECTORAL VOTE FOR CANDIDATES FOR PRESI-
DENT AND VICE-PRESIDENT AT EACH ELECTION.
NoTK. — There is, properly speaking, no popular vote for President and Vice-President ; the people vote for electors, and
those chosen in each State meet therein and vote for the candidates for President and Vicc-Presideut. The record or auy
fiopolar vote for electors prior to 1824 is sf* meagre and imperfect that a compilation wouid be useless. In most of the States,
or more than a quarter century following the establishment of the Government, the State Legislatures " appointed " the
Presi.iential electors, and the people therefore voted only indirectly for them, their choice being eiprested by their votes for
members of the Legi&l.nture. In this tabulation only the aggregate electoral votes for candidates for President and Vice-Presi-
dent in the first nine quadrennial elections appear.
ELECTORAL VOTES.
1789. Previous to 1804, each elector voted for two candid.ites for President. The one who received the largest number
of votes was declared President, and the one who received the next largest number of votes w:is declared Vice-President. The

* Monroe abandoned the profession of law when a young man, and was afterward, and until hia elec-
tion, always holding public office, t Jackson called himself a South Carolinian, and his biographer,

Robafds. (a) The Democratic party of to-dny claims lineal descent f ropi the first Republics^ party,
and President Jefferson as its founder, (ft) Political parties were disorganized at the time of the elec-
tion of John Quincy Adams. He claimed to be a Republican, but his doctrines were decidedly Federal-
istic. The opposition to his Administration took the name of Democrats, and elected Jackson President.
(r) Randall, the biographer of Jefferson, declares that he was a believer in Christiaiiit.v. although

THE PHILIPPINES.
The Philippine group, lying off the southern coast of Asia, between longitude 120 and 130 and
latitude 5 and 20 approxunntely. number about 2,000 islands, great and small, in a land and sea area
of 1,200 miles of latitude and 2,400 miles of longitude. The actual land area is about 140,000 miles.
The six New England States, New York, and New .lersej' have about an equivalent area. The Island
of Luzon, on which the capital city (Manila) is situated, is the largest n\ember of the grouj), being
about the size of the State of New Vork. Mindanao is nearly as large, but its popuhition is ver\' nmch
smaller. The latest estimates of areas of the largest islands are: Luzon, 44,400; Mindanao, 34,-
000; Sainar, 4.800; Panay, 4.700; Mindoro, 4,000; Leyie, 3,800; Negros. 3,300; Cebu, 2,400.
A census of tlie Philippines was taken by the United Slates t'Overnment in 1903 under the
auspices of the Census Ullice. The population returned was 7.635,426. Of this number almost
seven million are more or less civilized. The wild tribes form aboui 9 per cent, of the entire popu-
lation. Racially the inhabitants are principally Malays. The civilized tribes are iJractically all
adherents of the Catholic Church, the religion being tiiat introduced into tlie country bj' the Spaniards
when they took possession of the islands in 1565. The Church has since then been a strong rnlnig
power and the priesthood numerous. The Moros are Moliammedans and the other wild peoples have
no recognized religious beliefs. 'I'he total number of non-Christian peoples is 647.740.
The density of population in the Philippines is 67 per square mile. In Continental United Statp,s it
is 26 per square mile. Foreigners number about 50,0l>0, of whom nearly three- fourths are Chinese.
Exclusive of the Army there are 8,135 Americans in the islamls, nearly one-liall being located in the
mnnicipiilities. There are thirty dill'erent races in the islands, all speaking distinct dialects, thel;irg-
est tribe being the Visayans, who form nearly one-fourth of the entire civilized population. The
Tagalogs, occupjMng the provinces in the vicinity of ]\tanila, rank second in nnnibers, and the Ilo-
canos the third. Educjition has been practically reorganized by the Americans. The number of per-
sons attending school is 811,715. Six thousand teachers are employed, four-fifths of whom are
Filipinos. English is very generallji taught, and the next generation of Filipinos will probably speak
that tongue. Pauperism is almost unknown in tho islands. In 1902 there were only 1,668 paupers
maintained at pnl)lic charge. The average normal death rate in the Philippiuf^s is 32 per thousand.
The birth rate is 4s per thousand. There were in 1902 41 newspapers published, 12 being in English,
24 in Sjianish. 4 in native dialects, and 1 in Chinese. The estirnated real estate property value is
469,527.058 pesos, and the personal property 152,718,661 pesos. The reported value of chnreh
buildings, mostly Catholic, is 41.698, 710 pesos". While there are four towns with more than 10,000
population :Manila is the only incorporated citJ^ Its inhabitants nui-nbered 219,928 in 1902,
The climate is one of the best in the tronics. The islands e.vteud from.50 to 21° north lati-
tude, and Manila is in 14o s,"!/. The thermometer during July and August rarely goes below 79^ or
above 85°. The e.vtreme ranges in a year are said to be 61° and 97°, and the annual mean 81°.
AGRICULTURE.
Although agriculture is the chief occupation of the Filipinos, yet only one-ninth of the sur-
face is under cultivation. The soil is ver J' fertile, and even after deducting the mountainous areas it
is probable that the area of cultivation can be very largely extended and that the islands can support
population equal to that of .fapan (42,000,000).
The chief products are hemp, rice, corn, sugar, tobacco, cocoanuts,and cacao, hemp being the most
important commercial product and constituting t<\o-tlurils of the \'alue of all exports. Coffee and
cotton were formerly produced in large quantiiies— the former for export and the latter for home con-
sumption; but the coffee plant has been almost exterminated by insects and the home-made cotton
cloths have been driven out by the competition of those imported from England. The rice and corn are
principally produced in Luzon and Mindoro and are consumed in the islands. The cacao is raised in
the southern islands, the best quality of it at Mindanao. The sugar cane is raised in the Visayas.
The hemp is produced in Southern Luzon, Mindoro, the Visayas, and Mindanao. It is nearly all ex-
ported in bales. Tobacco is rai.sed in all the islands.
I^tPORTS AND EXPORTS,
In the year emling December 31, 190/, tlie exports of merchandise from the ITnited States to
the Philippines were $8,657,956, and the total imports from the Philippines for the same period
were $11, 510, 438.
The imports of merchandise from foreign countries, year ending December 31, 1906, were $25.-
114,852, and the exports were 816,681,097. The principal foreign countries trading with the Philip-
pines are Great Britain, French East Indies, China, and Spain.
CIVIL GOVERNMENT FOR THE PHILIPPINES.
On July 1, 19(K2. Congress pa.ssed (chapter 1369) "An act temporarily to provide for the
administration of the affairs of civil government in the Philippine Islands and for other purposes."
Under this act complete civil government was established in the Archipelago and the office of Mili-
tarv Governor with militarv rule was terminated. William H. Taft was appointed Governor by the
President. Governor Taft "was succeeded bv Luke E. Wright in December. 19(K5, by Henry Clay
Ide in 1905, and James F. Smith, the present Governor, in 1906. The government was composed of
a civil governor and seven commissioners, of whom four were Americans and three Filipinos. There
were four executive departments— Interior Finance, and Justice, Commerce and Police, and Public
Instructioff. There are thirtv-nine provinces, each with a governor, a supreme court with seven
judges, and fourteen judicial "districts. In March. 1907. the President, in accordance with the act
of Congress, directed the Commission to call a general election of delegates toa Pliilipnine A.s.sembly.
The new As-sembly was cliosen July 20, and was opened October 10 by Secretary of War Taft. It is
politically divided as follows: Nacionalists, 31; Progresistas,16; Independents, 19; Immediatistas.
7; Independista.s, 4; Nacional Indeoendiente, 1; Catolico. 1. The total vote recorded at thefJlection
for delegates was 9 .',803, which is only 1. 4 per cent of the population.
PORTO RICO.
The island of Porto Rico, over which the flag of the United States was raised in token of formal
possession on October 18, 1898, is the most eastern of the Greater Antilles in the ^Vest Indies and is

The island is a parallelogram in general outline, 108 miles from the ea-st to the west, and from o7
to 43 miles across, the area being about 3.600 square miles, or somewhat less than half that of the
gtftt« of ^'e^v Jersey (Delaware has 2,050 square miles and Connecticut 4,990 square miles). Th«

population according to au enumeration made by the United tttates (.xovernment in 1900 showed a
population of ^53,243, of whom 589,4"26 are white and 363.817 are colored. The density was 26.4 to
the square mile; 83.2 per cent, of the population cannot read.
Poi to Kico IS unusually fertile, and ii.s dominant industries are agriculture and lumbering. Di
elevated regions the vegetation ol the temperate zone is not unknown. There are more than 500
varieties of trees found in the forests, and the plains arc full of palm, orange, and other trees. The
principal crops are sugar, colfee, tobacco, and maize, but oranges, bananas, rice, pineapples, and many
other fruits are important products. The largest article of export from Porto llico is sugar. The next
largest is tobacco. The other exports iu order of amount are coiiee, fruits, molasses, cattle, timber,
and hides.
The principal minerals found in Porto Rico are gold, carbonates, and sulphides of copper and
magnetic oxide of iron in large quantities. Lignite is found at Utuado and Moca, and also yellow am-
ber. A large variety of marbles, limestones, and other building stones are deposited on'the island,
but these resources are very undeveloped. There are salt works at Guanica and Halina on the south
coast, and at Cape Rojo on the west, and these constitute the principal mineral industry in Porto Kico.
The principal cities are Maviiguez, with 15,187, Ponce. 27,0.j2 inhabitants; and fean Juan, the
capital, with 32,048. The shipmeiiLs ol domestic merchandise from the United Stales to Porto
Kico, year ending December 31. 1907, were :;>2.3,320.465. Tne exports of domestic merchandise lo
the United states were $20,552,612. The foreign trade, year ending December 31, 1907, was: Im-
ports, $3,580,887: exports, $4,899,372.
An act providing for a civil government for Porto Rico was passed bj- the Fifty-sixth Congress
and received the assent of the I'lesideut April 12, 1900. A statement of its provisions was printed in
Tub World Alma-vac for 1901. pages 92 and 9o. President Roosevelt in his mes.sage to Congress
in December, 1906, recommended the granting of United .States citizenship to the Porto P.icans.
Under tliis act a civil govornmeat was esiablislied, which went into eflect ]\Iay 1, 1900. There
are two legislative chambers, the Executive Council, or *• Upper House," composed of the (iovern-
ment Secretary, Attorney-(Teneral. Treasurer. Auditor, Commissioner of the Interior, and Commis-
sioner of Education, and five citizens appointed bv the President, and the House of Delegates, or
"Lower House," consisting of 35 members, elected bv the people. The island is represented near
the Congress of the United States by a Resident Comn::issioner.
GUAM.
The island of Ouam, the largest of the Marianne or Ladrone Archipelago, was ceded bv Spain to
the United States by Article 2 of the Treaty of Peace, concluded at Paris Jjecem be r 10. 1898. It lies
in a direct line from san Francisco to the southern part of the Philippines, and is 5,200 nn'es from
San Francisco and 900 miles from Manila. It is about 32 miles long and 100 miles in circumference,
and has a population of about 8.661, of whom 5,249 are in Agana.the capital. The inhabitants are

harbor. The productions are tropical fruits, cacao, rice, corn, tobacco, and sugar cane.
Commander Taussig, of the United States gunboat Bennington, took possession of the island and
raised the United States flag over Fort Santa Cruz on February 1, 1899.
TUTUILA.
Tutuila, the Samoan island which, with its tttondant islets of Tan, Olesinga, and Ofu, became a
possession of the United States by virtue of the tri-partite treaty with Great Britain and Germany
in 1899, covers, according to the Bureau of Statistics of the Treasury Department, fifty-four square
miles, and has 5,800 inhabitants. It possesses the most valuable is'land harbor, Pago'- Pago, in the
South Pacific, and perhaps in the entire Pacific Ocean. Commerciallv the island is unimportant at
present, but is extremelj' valuable in its relations to the commerce of any nation desiring to cultivate
transpacific commerce.
Ex-Cliief.lustice Chambers, of Samoa, says of Pago- Pago that "The harbor could hold the entire
naval force of the United States, and is so per.ectly arranged that only two vessels can enter at the
same time. The coaling station, being surrounded by high bintis, cannot be reached by shells from
outside." ' Tlie Government is increasing the capacity to 10,000 tons.
The Samoan Islands, in the South Pacific, are fourteen in imniher, and lie in a direct line drawn
from San Francisco to Auckland, New Zealand. Tht-v are 4, 0(J0 miles from San Francisco. 2. -.^OO
miles from Hawaii, 1,900 miles from Auckland, 2,000 miles from Sydney, and 4,200 miles from
Manila. Germanygoverns all the group exceot the part owned by the United States. The inhabitants
are native Polynesfans and Christians of different denominations.
WAKEfAND O^HER ISLANDS.
The United States flag was hoisted over Wake Island in January, 1899. nv Commander Taussig,
of the Bennington, while proceeding to Guam. It is a small island in the direct route from. Hawaii to
Hong Kong, about 2,000 miles from the first and 3,000 miles from the .second.
The United States possesses a number of scattered small islamis in the Pacific Ocean, some hardly
more than rocks or coral reefs, over which the fia? lias^heen hoisted from time to time. Thev are of
little present value and mostly uninhabited. The largest are Christmas, Gallego. Starbuck, Penrhvn,
Phoenix, Palmyra, Howland. Baker, Johnston. Gardner. Midway, Morell, and Marcus islands. The
Midway Islands are occupied by a colony of telegraphers in charsi^e of the relav in the cable line con-
necting the Philippines with the United States and a camp of United States marines, in all about
forty persons.
The Santa. Barbara group is a part of California and the Aleutian chain, extending from the pen-
insula of Kamchatka in Asiatic Russia to the promontory in North America which separates Bering
Sea from the North Pacific, a part of Alaska.
HAWAII.
Hawaii was annexed to the United States bv joint resolution of Congress Julv 7, 1898. A bill to
create Hawaii a Territory of the United States was passed bv Congress and approved April 30, 1900.
The area of the several islands of the Hawaiian group is' as follows: Hawaii. 4,210 .square miles;
Maui. 760; Oahu, 600; Kauai, 590; Molokai, 270; Lanai, 150; Niihau, 97; Kahoolawe, 63. Total,
6,740 square miles.
At the time of the discovery of the islands bv Caotain Cook in 1778 the native population wag

City of Honolulu is 39,306.
The exDorts from Hawaii to the United States in the twelve months ending December 31, 1907,
were valued at $29,054,581. The imports into Hawaii from the United states for the same period
were valued at $14,124,376. The imports from foreign countries for the same period were
$4,151,709. exports $183,981.
The new Territorial Government was inaugurated at Honolulu .Tune 14, 1900. and the first Terri-
torial Legislature began its sessions at Honolulu February 20. 1901. The Legislature is composed of
two houses— the Se)iate of fifteen members, holding office four years, and the House of Kepre.senta-
tives of thirty members, holding office two years. The Legislature meets biennially, and sessions are
limited to sixty days.
The Executive "power is lodged in a Governor, a Secretary, both appointed by the President, and
hold office four years, and the following officials appointed b.v the Governor, by and with the con-

ACQUISITION OF THE PANAMA CANAL ZONE IN 1904.
Article 2 of the treaty between the United States and the Republic of Panama, ratified by the
United states Senate February 23, 1904, treaty in efllect February 26, 1904, provided lor the
cession, in perpetuity, by Panama, of a .strip of territory adjacent to the canal, as follows :
" The Republic of Panama grants to the United .States in perpetuity the use, occupation, and control
of the zone of land and laud under water for the construction, maintenance, operation, sanitation,
and protection of said canal of the width often miles, extendingto the distance of five miles on each
side of the centre line of the route of the canal to be constructed; the said zone beginning
in the Caribbean Sea, three marine miles from mean low-water mark, and extending to and acros.s the
Isthmus of Panama into the Pacific Ocean to a distance of three marine miles from mean low- water
mark, with the proviso that the cities of Panama and Colon and the harbors adjacent to said cities,
which are included within the boundaries of the zone above described, shall not be included within
this grant. The Republic of Panama further grants to the United States in perpetuity the use. oc-
cupation, and control of any other lands and waters outside of the zone above described which may be
necessary and convenient for the construction, maintenance, operation, sanitation, and protection of
the said canal or of any auxiliary canals or other work necessarv and convenient for the construction,
maintenance, operation, sanitation, and protection of the said enterprise. The Republic of Panama
further grants to the United States in perpetuitv the u.se, occupation, and control of all islands with-
in the limits of the zone above described, and in addition thereto the group of small islands in the Bay
of Panama named Perico, Nacs, Culebra, and Flamingo."
The Panama Canal. ^7

A NARRATIVE OF THE STUPENDOUS ENTERPRISE.
While a majority of the readers of THE WORLD ALMAI^AC for 190S will doubtless be
living when the great ditch now being dug across the Isthmus of Panama will unite the
waters of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the wisest sage cannot accurately pi-edict all
the results which will follow the completion of the stupendous enterprise. The commerce
of the world will pay financial tribute as the fleets of all nations pass through the water-
way to avoid the long voyage around Cape Horn, while to the United States, in times of
peace or war, incalculable benefits will accrue from undisputed control of the marvellous
ocean roadway which American genius and American money are pushing to completion.
Great obstacles may yet be met. but that final success is assured there can no longer be
any doubt. After vicissitudes and failures by others, Americans will reach an ultimate
triumph in which all sections of the Union will share, and the Southern States especially
will reach a greater greatness.
Since the promulgation of the Monroe Doctrine American sentiment has been generally
insistent upon American control of an isthmian canal, whether such a canal ci-ossed Nica- •
ragua or Panama, and for many years the relative merits of the two routes have been
sagely discussed. International questions have been raised, and several generations have
waited to see what is now being witnessed.
Under the Clayton-Bulwer treaty the United States and Great Britain might have com-
bined to build and maintain a ship canal or railway across the isthmus through Nicai*agua,
guaranteeing neutrality and sharing expenses and profits. Nicaragua had made to the
United States the so-called "Hise" grant, but Great Britain would not consent to withdj-aw
her pretensions to the Mosquito Coast and permit this country and Nicaragua to build the
canal. The project therefore failed, and later the civil war thrust canal propositions into
the background. After that war, however, France asked the United States to guarantee
the neutrality of the Panama Canal, which Ferdinand de Lesseps was then designing.
This drew from President Hayes a special message to Congress on March 8, ISSO, in which
he said: "The United States cannot consent to the surrender of control (over an inter-
oceanic canal) to any European power or to any combination of European powers. An
inter-oceanic canal across the American isthmus will be a great ocean thoroughfare between
our Atlantic and our Pacific shores and virtually a part of the coast line of the United
States. No other great power would under similar circumstances fail to assert a rightful
control over a work so closely and vitally affecting its interest and welfare." Seemingly,
President Hayes construed the ClaYton-Btilwer treaty as being non-effective except as to
canal schemes considered when the treaty was signed, and a treaty was negotiated with
Colombia permitting American control, but this agreement was not ratified by France.
Secretary of State Blaine, unawed by the protests of the British press, maintained,
under President Garfield, the stand taken by President Haj-es, and went further by pro-
posing to modify the Clayton-Bulwer treaty so as to prevent England's sharing the control
of the canal in event of war. He declared: "As England insists, by the right of her
power, that her enemies in war shall strike her Indian possessions only by doubling the-
Cape of Good Hope, so the United States will equally insist that the canal shall be reserved
for ourselves, while our enemies, if we shall ever be so unfortunate as to have any, shall
be remanded to the voyage around Cape Horn." Lord Granville, in behalf of Great Britain,
declined to modify the Clayton-Bulwer treaty because of the interests of England and of
the civilized world in the canal, and threatened that, if the United States persisted In
demanding supreme authority, Great Britain and other nations would construct fortifica-
tions to command the canal and its approaches.
President Arthur's Secretary of State, Mr. Frelinghuysen, held that the Clayton-
Bulwer treaty was voidable, and also that it applied only to the Nicaragua route. Mr.
Frelinghuysen argued that a canal across the isthmus, under an international guarantee
of neutrality, "would affect the republic in its trade and commerce, expose our Western
coast to attack, destroy our isolation, oblige us to increase our navy and improve our
defences, and possibly compel us, contrary to our traditions, to. take an active interest
in the affairs of European nations."
In the meantime, and until 1888, M. de Lesseps pushed the digging of the Panama
Canal, the French people willingly supplying money for the enterprise until the historic
crash came. Then the stockholders, the majority of whom were of the middle class, learned
how their investments had been squandered, through mismanagement and corruption, and
how long they had been deceived by the directors. France, especially Paris, was crazed
by the revelations. M. de Lessep^s and many of his associates suffered imprisonment and
fine, and among those arrested for alleged complicity were more than 100 members of the
French Legislature and five former Ministers of the Government.
THE RECOGNITION OF PANAMA.
On January 22, 190.3, the treaty between the United States and Colombia for the con-
struction of the Panama Canal by the United States was signed at Washington, and on
March 23 this treaty was ratified by the United States Senate by a vote of 73 to 12, five
Senators not voting. The Colombian Senate rejected this treaty on September 14. and
approved, on first reading, a bill authorizing the Government to negotiate a new treaty.
Panama declared its independence on November 3. On November 5 the Colombian troops
evacuated Colon and sailed for Carthagena. The following day the United States recognized
the independence of Panama, against which action Colombia lodged a protest with the
State Department at Washington on November 8. M. Bunau-Varilla. Envoy Extraordinary
and Minister Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Panama, was formally received by Presi-
dent Roosevelt November 13. Two days later the Panama Commissioners arrived at New
Jork, and on November 18 a canal treaty between the United States and Panama was
288 The Panama Canal,
signed at Washington by Secretary of State Hay and Minister Bunau-Varilla. Under this
treaty the canal is now being constructed.
The preamble of this treaty cites a desire on the part of the United States to further
the observance of the act of Congress, approved June 2C5, 1U02, whereby the United States
was authorized to purcnase from tnc new i^anama Canal Company for $4u,0UU,UUU all the
rights and property of said company; lo buy the right of way irom Colomoia; to construct
a canal across the Isthmus of i^anama tnrouga Colombia; to cnoose the :\icaragua route
if deemed more advisable; to expend $13o,UUU,wuO for construction, if the Panama route be
chosen, or $1&0,OUU,UUO should the Nicaragua route be adopted; to create an Isthmian Canal
Commission, to be appointed by the President, and consisting of seven members, to have
executive control of tne canal construction aifairs; and to issue United States Government
bonds, payable in thirty years and bearing k: per cent, interest, to defray construction
txpenses.
The treaty of November IS, 1903, with Panama provides, in twenty-five articles, for
details as to canal ownership and management, the principal agreements being: That the
United States guarantees and will maintain the independence of the Repyblie of Panama;
that the said Republic grants to the United States in perpetuity a strip of land ten miles
in width across the isthmus, being five miles on either side of the centre of the line of the
canal, and of all lands and waters outside of said canal zone which may be necessary to
the construction and maintenance of the canal. The small Islands named Perico, Nacs,
Culebra and Flamingo, in the Bay of Panama, are also ceded to the United States; the
Republic of Panama grants to the United States in perpetuity a monopoly for the con-
struction, maintenance and operation of any system of communication by means of canal
or railroad across the Republic's territory between the Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean;
Panama grants to the United States for a period of fifty years all rights to the construc-
tion of sewage and water-works systems, with accruing rentals, submits to sanitary
control of the cities of Panama and Colon by the United States, and, in case of necessity,
extends the right of such sanitary control to the entire Republic of Wnama; the Republic
of Panama authorizes the New Panama Canal Company to sell all its rights and property
to the United States; the ports at either entrance of the canal are to be declared free for
all time by the Republic of Panama; the United States may import at any time, free of
customs duty or other charges, into srdd zone all things necessary for the canal construc-
tion; the two governments are to hereafter make adequate provision for the pursuit, arrest,
detention and, when necessary, extradition of alleged criminals in the canal zone; the
Republic grants to the United States the free use of all the Republic ports open to com-
merce for all vessels in distress having the right to pass through the canal, and the
Republic is to enjoy free transportation over the canal of its vessels, troops and munitions
of war at all times, also free transportation of the Government employees and police of
the Republic; the canal, when constructed, and the entrance thereto, shall be neutral in
perpetuity; the Republic of Panama agrees to modify all preceding treaties with any third
Power so that no conflict may exist with the m-esent convention; the United States is
given the right to employ its armed forces or to Build fortifications for the safety or pro-
tection of the canal or of the ships that make use of the same; the United States agrees
to pay to the Republic of Panama the sum of ?10,000,000 in gold and an annual payment
of $250,000 during the life of the convention, beginning nine years from the date thereof.
No change in the government or laws of the Republic, affecting the rights of the United
States, shall be made by the Republic without the consent of the United States, and in
the event of the sovereignty of the Republic of Panama being changed or merged with
that of another government, the rig= ^ of the United States in the canal zone are to be
respected and in no way waived; all differences between the Republic and the United
States concerning canal matters are to be settled by arbitration by a commission of four
members, two froin each government, with reference to an umpire selected by said govern-
ments in case of the disagreement of the commission, said umpire's decision to be final.
On November 19, 1903, the Colombian envoys arrived at Colon to negotiate the return
of Panama to Colombia, and were refused. On November 27 the United States Minister
at Bogota formally notified the Colombian Foreign Minister of the recognition by the
United States of the Republic of Panama and the reception of Panama's Minister. On
December 2 the canal treaty with the United States was ratified by the Government of
Panama, without amendment. Gen. Rafael Reyes, special envoy from Colombia, was
received by President Roosevelt on December 5. Marines from the cruiser Dixie were
landed at Colon and occupied a position at Empire, on the Panama Railroad, on December
8. Senator Morgan, on December 0, attacked the canal treaty in the Senate, and Senator
Hoar introduced resolutions seeking information of the action of the Government. Elec-
tions were ordered, December 13, to take place on January 15, 1904, for delegates to a
convention to form a constitution for the Republic of Panama, and thus was closed the
momentous year in which American control of the great ditch was at last assured.
Despite the opposition of some Senators, only fourteen of them voted against the rati-
fication of the treaty on February 23, 1904, and on February 26 it went into effect, with
the exchange of ratifications between the representatives of the two countries and the
proclamation of President Roosevelt. On April 28, 1904, Congress passed an act to provide
for the temporary government of the canal zone. President Roosevelt then appointed the
following members of the Isthmian Canal Commission, to take charge of the construction
of the canal and the government of the canal zone: Rear- Admiral John G. Walker,
U. S. N. (retired). Chairman; Maj.-Gen. George W. Davis, U. S. A. (retired); William
Barclay Parsons. New York; William H. Burr, New York; Benjamin M. Harrod, Uouisi-
ana; Carl Ewald Crunsky, California; Frank J. Hecker, Michigan. John F. Wallace,
general manager of the Illinois Railroad system, was appointed Chief Engineer.
In the meantime Manuel Amador had been inaugurated, February 20, as President of
the Republic of Panama and formed his Cabinet, and Senor Pablo Arosemana was appointed
Minister to the United States, succeeding Senor Bunau-Varilla, resigned. William I.
Buchanan, of Iowa, was the first United States Minister to Panama. Ho was succeeded by

and the Government received a premium of $l,i;00.000 becau.se of the high prices offered.
The exceeding of authorized expenditures by the Canal Commission during the fiscal
year ending June .'JO, lUOG, led to criticism and to an attempt at investigation by the Senate
committee on Interoceanic Canals. President Roosevelt, in a special message to Congress,
transmitting the Commission's report, vigorously defended the Commission, declaring:
•"I repeat that the work on the isthmus has been done, and is being done, admirably. The
organization is good. The mistakes are extraordinarily few, and these few have been
jiractically of no consequence. The zeal, intelligence and efficient service of the Isthmian
Commission and its subordinates have been noteworthy. I court the fullest, most exhaust-
ive and most searching investigation of any act of tiieirs, and if any one of them is ever
shown to have done wrong his punishment shall be exemplary. But I ask that they be
decently paid, and that their hands be upheld as long as they act decently. On any other
conditions we shall not be able to get men of the right type to do the work, and this
means that on any other conditions we shall insure, if not failure, at least delay, scandal
and inefficiency in the task of digging the giant canal."
The President spent four days on the Isthmus in November, 1000, going over the entire
route of the canal. On his return he expressed himself as satisfied with conditions, and
on December 17 he sent to Congress a specially illustrated message detailing his views on
the canal situation.
PROGRESS OF WORK IN 1907.
President Roosevelt, on April 1, 1907, placed the work of constructing the Panama
Canal in charge of the engineer officers of the army, appointing I^ieut.-Col. George W.
Goethals Chairman of the Isthmian Canal Commission and Chief Engineer. There was
no specific authority for this action, but it was done under the law providing for the
construction of the canal, which authorized him to have the work performed. He will
reconmiend to Congress that the Chief of Engineers of the United States Army be placed
in control of this work.
Theodore P. Shonts. the Chairman of the Canal Commission, resigned January 23 to
become President of the Interborough-Meti-opolitan Companv of New York. John F.
Stevens, Chief Engineer of the Commission, was then appointed Chairman of the Com-
mission and Chief Engineer. He went to Panama to complete the canal, and die with his
boots on if necessary.
But Mr. Stevens' soon became tired of his position, and after a serious disagreement
with President Roosevelt regarding affairs on the isthmus, resigned March 4.
Lieut. -Col. Geoi-ge W. Goethals, one of the most experienced officers of the Army En-
gineer Corps, was appointed a member of the Commission, and on April 1 became Chair-
man and Chief Engineer. Major D. D. Gaillard and Major William L. Sibert. of the En-
gineer Corps of the Army, were also made members of the Commission. These appoint-
nients were made because the President could not secure a civilian who would stick to
the job. All of them retired after completing their organization of the Commission, the
working force and their plans. These constant changes retarded the work, and finally the
President appointed Lieutenant-Colonel Goethals as Chairman of the Commission and assigned
two other army engineers as membecs of the Commission. This was done to prevent
further changes in the policy of conducting the work and to have army engineers on hand
familiar with the work, so that one of them could step into the position of Chairman in the
event of his retirement.
Shortly after the appointment of Lieutenant-Colonel Goethals all the members of the
Commission were transferred to the isthmus, including Joseph Bucklin Bishop, the Secre-
tary, and all the principal work is now conducted at Panama. Lieut. -Col. H. F. Hodges.
Corps of Engineers, U. S. Army, was placed in charge of the administrative features of
the Canal Commission offices with the titles of General Purchasing Officer and Chief of
Office. He purchases all supplies and maohinei-y for the canal, advertising for bids.
The Canal Commission consists of the following persons:
Lieut. -Col. George W. Goethals. .^alarv S15,000, Chairman and Chief Engineer; Major
D. D. Gaillard. V. S. A., salary $14,000; Major William L. Sibert, U. S. A., salary $14,000;
H. H. Rosseau, Civil Engineer, U. S.. N.. salary $14,000; Hon. Josei)h C. S. Blackburn, of
Kentucky, salarv $14,000; Col. W. C. Gorgas, U. S. A., salarv $14,000; Jackson Smith,
salary $14,000; Joseph Bucklin Bishop. Secretary, salarv $10,000. Each member of the
Commission is provided with a furnished house and is allowed all expenses while in the
United States on official business.
Lieutenant-Colonel Goethals is in charge of Construction and Engineering; Major D.
D. Gaillard has charge of the Department of Excavation and Dredging; Major William L.
Sibert. Department of Locks and Dam Construction; H. H. Rosseau, in charge of Depart-
ment of Municipal Engineering. Motive Power and Machinery, and Building Construction;
Hon. Joseph C. S. Blackburn, in charge of Civil Administration; Col. W. C. Gorgas. Chief
of the Department of Sanitation, and Jackson Smith, in charge of Department of Labor,
Quarters and Subsistence.
February 7.— William J. Oliver, of Knoxville. Tenn.. and Anson G. Bangs, of New
York, under the name of Oliver & Bangs, submitted a bid to construct the canal by con-
tract. Their bid v.-as 6.7.5 per cent, of the actual cost of construction, and the Mc Arthur-
Gillespie Company, of New York, submitted a bid at 12^4 per cent. These were the only
two bids that were considered. An investigation was m'ade by President Roosevelt, the
Secretary of War and the Canal Commission into the reliability of the contractors. It
was found that Mr. Bangs had transacted business with Gaynor & Greene, who were
indicted in connection with Capt. Oberlin M. Carter for the frauds at Savannah. Ga..
where the Government was constructing a breakwater. Mr. Oliver was informed that he
must get another partner, and Frederick C. Stevens. Sujierintendent of Public Works of
New York, then associated himself with Mr. Oliver. Their bid was considered, and finally
Mr Oliver was notified that he must organize a corporation with a capital of $5,000,000.
He did so. and associated with him were John B. McDonald, of New York, who constructed
the .Subway; John Pierce, of Now York, who constructed a large number of building's for
the Govern:nent; P. T. Brennan. of the Brennan Construction Company, of Washington.
D. C: John H. Gerrish. of the Eastern Dredge Company, of Boston, and the P. J. Walsh
Construction Company, of Davenport, lowq.
After considering these bids, they were rejected, as the Government decided to continue

^The second International Peace Consress convened at The Hague on June 15, 1907.
It consisted of 239 delegates, representing forty-six Powers. /The speech of welcome was
delivered by Dr. Van Tets Van Goudrian, Foreign Minister of the Netherlands. M. Xeli-
doff, head of the Russian delegation, was chosen President of the Congress. Many of the
most distinguished statesmen of the civilized world occupied seats as delegates. Among
the American delegajtion were Joseph H. Choate, Gen. Horace Porter, former Ambassador
to France; David James Hill, of the State Department: Rear Admiral Charles S. Sperry,
Brig.-Gen. George B. Davis, William I. Buchanan, James Brown Scott, U. M. Rose.
Congressman Richard M. Bartholdt. The Congress had been proposed by President
Roosevelt, and was convened by Queen Wilhelmina upon the formal invitation of the
Czar of Russia.
The work of the Congress was divided into four divisions, as follows:
1. Arbitration— President. M. Bourgeois. France; Honorary Presidents. Merey Von
Kapos-Mere. Austria; Sir Edward Fry. England; Ruy Barbosa. Brazil; Vice-Presidents.
Dr. Kriege, Germany; Signer Pompili, Italy; Senor Esteva. Mexico.
2. Land War— Presidents. M. Beernaert, Belgium, and M. Asser. Netherlands; Hon-
orary Presidents, Baron Marschall von Bieberstein. Germany; Gen. Horace Porter. United
States; the Marquis de Soveral, Portugal; Vice-Presidents. Constantin Brun, Denmark;
Dr. Beldiman. Roumania; Dr. Carlin, Switzerland.
3 Maritime War — President. Count Tornlelli. Italv: Honorary Presidents. Josep^h H.
Choate United States; Tseng-Liang, China; Turkhan Bey. Turkey; Vice-Presidents. Herr
Hammarskjold, Sweden; Dr. Drago, Argentina; Baron d'Estournelles de Constant. France.
4. Geneva Convention— President, Prof, de Martens, Russia; Honorary Presidents, Senor
Don de Villay, Urrutia. Spain; M. Kurachi. Japan; Vice-Presidents, Sir Ernest Satow,
England; Prof. Lammasch, Austria; Dr. Hagerup, Norway.
The sessions of the Congress, which were held in the Hall of Knights, finally con-
cluded on October 18. after a long series of sessions, full of complicated discussions, at
"Which much diplomacy was required to harmonize the interests of the nations represented.
PROPOSED PERMANENT COURT OF ARBITRATION,
The one great principle for whose permanent establishment the American delegates
fought from first to last was obligatory arbitration and a Permanent Court of Arbitral
Justice. The idea was to have an international court, easily accessible and free of charge,
with judges representing the various systems of laws of the world, and capable of
insuring a continuation of arbitration by jurisprudence. The judges were to be selected,
so far as possible, from the members of the Permanent Court of Arbitration. They were
to serve twelve years and were to enjoy diplomatic privileges and immunities while
exercising their functions. There were to be seventeen of the judges, nine to form a
quorum. The president of the court was to be elected every three years. The tribunal
was to sit at The Hague and was to meet once or twice yearly, in July and January.
Each party to a dispute was .to have its own judge to participate in the trial of cases
submitted to the court.
It became evident, soon after the discussion began, that, while a large majority of
the delegates to the Congress favored some fixed system of permanent arbitration, the
opinion of the conference was not ripe for a settlement of the problem. As early as
August. M. Nelidoff suggested that the whole subject be postponed until the next Peace
Congress, recommending that the Powers in the meantime study the question from the
standpoint of universal interest. Germany led the opposition to obligatory arbitration
In its final form of advocacy by America and Great Britain on the basis of the Portuguese
list of disputes regarding which it was proposed to submit in all cases, and unreservedly,
to arbitration. Austria supported Germany, and Italy, though disposed to favor the
American idea, was forced to join her allies against it.
It was Count Tornielli, of Italy, who suggested the final formula of a declaration
which caused the postponement till the next Congress of definite action on the question.
The South American States, headed by Brazil, prevented the acceptance of the plan for
a new anc} permanently effective Court of Arbitral Justice. M. Ruy de Barbosa led tl.e
opposition. He took the position that in such a court all States, big or little, weit^
entitled to an equal quota of judges. He and his South American colleagues therefore op-
posed, with final success, the proposed method for the selection and distribution of judgos,
which would have relegated these States and others to a second or third-rate position by
only permitting them to elect judges In a certain rotation of years.
AN INTERNATIONAL PRIZE COURT.
But if the United States was unsuccessful in bringing about obligatory arbitration
and a permanent Court of Arbitral Justice, it was at least partly recompensed by
inducing the Congress to adopt another American idea— an International Prize Court.
This achievement is generally regarded abroad as the most Tmportant piece of potenti-i!ly
constructive international legislation produced bv the Congress. As now constituted, this
is a far more solid and tangible body than the Permanent Court of Arbitration, which was
the work of the Conference of ISiMt. That court was. as M. de Martens, the distinguished
Holland delegate put it. "a mere list of available judges."
The Prize Court plan, as finally adopted by the Conference and embodied in a "con-
vention." provides for a working bench of fifteen judges, determines the method of their
election by the forty-six Powers represented at the Conference, and lavs down the conditions
under which an appeal may be made to the Court in case of war. it is said in regard to
the "convention" that it has not yet been signed by anv of the Great Powers, and as to
Great Britain, some doubt is expressed if she will sign until the Powers shall have reached
an agreement on a code of laws of maritime warfare for the Prize Court to apply, Thg

"convention" comes before the present session of the United States Congress, and will
be submitted to the German. Austro-Hungarian and French Parliaments.
THIRTEEN "CONVENTIONS" APPROVED.
The completed results of the sittings of the Peace Congress were embodied in thirteen
"conventions." as follows:
1. The peaceful regulation of international conflicts. ^
2. Providing for an International Prize Court.
3. Regulating the rights and duties of neutrals on land,
4. Regulatmg the rights and duties of neutrals at sea.
5. Covering the laying of submarine mines.
6. The bombardment of towns from the sea,
7. The matter of the collection of contractual debts.
8. The transformation of merchantmen into warships.
9. The treatment of captured crews.
10. The inviolability of fishing boats.
11. The inviolability of the postal service.
12. The application of the Geneva Convention and the Red Cross to sea warfare, and
V,\. The laws and customs regulating land warfare
The right to sign these "conventions" will be open until June 30, IOCS.
Great Britain has, for the present, refused to accept the decisions of the Third Com-
mittee on the rights and duties of neutrals in maritime warfare.
The decisions of the Fourth Committee have left open the question of the conversion
of merchantmen into warships on the high seas by belligerents. Germany has reserved
her rights in regard to the convention on "days of grace" and the circumstances in which
merchantmen may be seized on the outbreak of war. The special convention on "Certain
Restrictions ui)on the Exercise of the Right of Capture in Maritime War" is limited to the
inviolability of postal correspondence, the exemption of fishing boats, under certain condi-
tions, from capture, and the treatment of captured crews of merchantmen, neutral or hostile.
The foU'-nving joint prupositions of America, Russia, Italy, Spain and Holland were
embodied in conventions:
1. The commander of a fleet must spare historical monuments, churches, and buildings
used for artistic, scientific, or benevolent purposes, and hospitals, on the condition that
they are not used for military purposes, and are designated by special signs, which must
be displayed by the inhabitants.
2. Before be.ginning the bombardment of a town the commander of a fleet must do all
in his power to inform the authorities of the town of his intention.
.'{. Pillage is forbidden, even in a town or locality taken by assault.
4. The bombardment of undefended ports, towns, villages, or buildings is forbidden,
but any military work existing in otherwise undefended places can be bombarded if the
local authorities refuse to destroy it.
r». Undefended places can be bombarded if they refuse to furnish a fleet with necessary
provisions.
6. The bombardment of a town or village for refusal to pay a ransom is prohibited.
THE DRAGO DOCTRINE.
The Drago doctrine, formulated by Dr. Drago, of the Argentine Republic, as to the
collection of public debts by force w^as presented to the Congress by its author in the
shape of a provision that "In the coHection of public debts the debts must be claimed in
the ordinary courts of the debtor country." As finally framed in a Convention, through
the initiative and efforts of Gen. Horace Porter, of the American delegation, the great
principle has at last been definitely established that public debts must not he collected
by force, except as a last resort. Speaking of the accomplishment. General Porter said:
"We were confronted by two .great difficulties. One was the desire of creditor nations
to employ force; the other was the reluctance of debtor nations to recognize the right of
using force for this purpose under any circumstances. My proposition was a compromise.
It absolutely forbade the employment of force for this purpose until after arbitration
should have been refused or after an arbitral award had been set at naught.
"After patient discussion I had the supreme satisfaction of seeing my proposition
accepted unanimously. This is a result of which America may well be proud."
GENERAL, RESULTS.
The general results of the Con.gress. with the notable part taken by America in bringing
them about, are thus summarized for THE WORLD by Gen. Porter:
"Its great achievement has been to push for\\'ard in every department of international
life American principles It has affirmed in many directions the rights of neutrals against
those of belligerents. It has placed restrictions upon the use of floating mines, which
have been a menace to the commerce of the whole world, without impairing the ri.srht of
nations at war to use anchored mines for self-defence. It has peremptorily forbidden the
bombarding of undefended seacoast towns and villages. It has prohibited the levying of
contributions by threat of bombarding. It has done much to strengthen security a.gainst
the atrocities which often occur in war. It has shielded the non-combatant. It has
strengthened the provisions for the relief of the wounded. It has taken strict precautions
against a revival of privateering in naval war by insisting that when merchant vessels
are convprted into cruisers thev shall be formally enrolled on the naval list and placed
in command of a duly commissioned naval officer, with a crew subject to naval discipline.
Such questions as contraband of war and blockade, though no a.greement was reached, and
on every important question which came before us we have made a .erreat and truly mar-
vellous advance toward an a.arreement on more civilized lines. So great, indeed, has been
the growth of international sentiment that it is probable that at the conference of the
leading naval Powers which Ene:!and intends to summon in 1!>0S we shall find ourselves
able to settle some ciuesti<ins which have been a source of difference for a hundred years.
It was America that proi)osed the Permanent Court of Arbitral .Tustice— not a mei-e court
of arbitration, but a judicial court composed of the ablest jurists of all nations, repre-
senting all systems of law and all languages. This project, although it was described ^^
a ^oint Anglo-American-German proposal, was substantially Amerigar).

Cutjan <©ccupaticjn in 1907*
The military occupation of Cuba by the United States, which began in 1906, has con-
tinued without interruption during 1907. A military government with a civil head was
maintained, ^ov. Charles E. Magoon, appointed October 13, IDOG, is the administrative
head, and the list of assiistants named upon his accession to this position is unchanged.
The restoration of conditions to such a state as will permit the withdrawal of .\meri-
can troops and the resumption of control by an independent Cuban Government is slowly
progressing. It is already self-evident that American occupation will continue for at least
another year. This is said to meet the warm approval of business and financial interests.
The most important work of the year was the taking of a census in Cuba, on which
will be based future municipal, State and national elections looking to the final re-urgani/;a-
tion of a home government. The enumeration began October 1 and was concluded November
14. The tabulation of the returns and compilation of results will consume several snonths
and no election under this census will be held till a time this year yet to be designated.
Another important step was the appointment by Governor Magoon of an Advisoi-y Coia-
niission to arrange plans for reforming the judicial systems of the Island and suggesting
changes in municipal and provisional governments. This Commission has formulated a
satisfactory plan of national sanitation by which all the work of health preservation and
cleanliness will be taken from the local bodies and centred under Federal jurisdiction.
This is considered an advanced step in the direction of guaranteeing future immunity from
>ellow fever and other epidemics.
AMERICAN TROOPS IN CUBA.
About 6,000 American troops remain in Cuba. This force is composed of the same de-
tachments sent there at the outbreak of disturbances in 190G. It was not found necessary
dv.ring 1907 to call out any portion of this force to quell disturbances or outbreaks. The
Rural Guards were able to control all disorders, which have chiefly arisen through cattle-
stealing and similar breaches of the peace.
Two strikes of considerable magnitude occurred in Cuba during the year. The cigar-
makers struck for payment in American money, and their demands were granted. Rail-
road employees struck for wages in American money and an eight-hour day. The em-
ployers were willing to grant payment in American money, but said an eight-hour day
would cause complications with connecting lines. This matter is pending adjustment.
All legislation in Cuba during the year was effected by decree of the Governor. No
legislative body was sitting, although the Senate retains its vitality, but agreed not to
ivsume its sessions during American occupation.
It is expected that all the expenses of American occupation will be paid from the
Cuban revenues, but this is a matter resting largely in the discretion of President Roosevelt.
Congi-ess in 1907 placed a clause in the Army Appropriation bill authorizing the President
to reimburse this Government for all the expenses of Cuban occupation, provided the Island
revenues are adequate for the purpose after paying Governmental outlays at home. Vt>
to this time no reimbursement has been made. All surplus revenues have been utilized in
building roads, public hospitals and other improvements. If this continues until the trooi)s
are withdrawn and an independent home government is re-established there will be no
reimbursement. The expense of American occupation exceeded $1,000,000 for 1907, although
the expenditures are much less than in the previous year. There were no transportations
of troops, building of new quarters or repairs. The pay departments of the Army. Navy
and Marine Corps expended about $30,000 a month extra on account of the men being on
foreign service.
THE PURPOSE OF AMERICAN OCCUPATION.
The purpose of the American occupation and the progress being made were thus summed
up by Secretary of War Taft and Assistant Secretary of State Bacon in reporting on their
mission as Special Commissioners to Cuba:
"We went to Cuba for the purpose of securing peace. When we went we knew the
Island was divided between two hostile and armed forces, and we desired to avoid a
conflict between them for the reason that it would cause loss of life to the Cubans and
a great destruction of property, a large part of which belonged to American citizens, and
it would necessarily require the intervention of American troops and the expenditure of
American lives and treasure. If the insurrectionary habit persists, if again the Cubans
divide into armed forces, the strong hand of our Government will have to be imposed at
whatever cost to life and proi)erty, and pernlanent peace should then ensue, because it
would be of our own keeping.
"We hope, however, that no such drastic remedy will be needed and that the lesson
taught in this recent experience of the evil of unjust methods in elections will not l)e
without its warning to future governments in Cuba. With the passage of pi-oper laws f(ir
municipal governments, for elections, and for the independence of the judiciary, and with
the holding of a fair election under the auspices of the United States for the vacancies
effected in accordance with the compromise recommended, we are very hopeful that the
Cuban Republic may be restored on even a more permanent basis than that which she
enjoyed during four years of prosperity under President Palma."
In the Autumn of 1!>07 rumors emanated from Havana that a serious uprising against
American authority was contemplated. Nothing developed. It was then declared that
many prominent American financiers and business men were fomenting this proposed
revolution in order that American occupation might be made permanent. At the time of
the uprising against President Palma and his government it was declared that leading
Americans had furnished funds to the revolutionists so as to precipitate intervention, thus
securing a stable government under which business enterprises might be better advanced
nnd protected. The first cablegram sent by President Roosevelt to Secretary Taft after
his arrival In Havana, dated .September 20. iO()(*>. was "Is it possible to institute investiga-
tions to see what Americans, if any. have been furnishing funds to the revolutionists?"
After making inquiries, Mr. Taft leplied: "It is quite evident that no .\merican interests
in New Yoik or elsewhere have initiated movement or contributed to its success."
Similar denials were given out when the charge was renewed in the Autupm of 3907
that American interests were supplying money for future uprisings.

for the Navy was $(38,000,000. The estimated cost of maintaining the French Army in i:J07

to spend $;>0,000,000 on her Navy, and a still larger sum on the Army. Russia spent
$^0,000,000 for upbuilding her Navy in 1!)07, and Austro-Hungary $0,000,000. Previous to
the war with Russia the military expenditure of Japan was less than $25,000,000. . The ex-
penditure during the war from October, lOOy, to May, 1005, amounted to $.500,000,000 for the
Army and $00,000,000 for the Navy, Since then the annual military expenditure amounts
to between $35,000,000 and $40,000,000, but this is Increasing.
RELATIVE EFFICIENCY OF NAVIES.
Secretary of the Navy Metcalf. in his annual report. December 1, 1007, made the follow-
ing statement of the relative efficiency of the principal nations of the world:

Germany 529, 032! Austria 113,235 1 1 Germany 680,602
The Secretary made the following comments: It is true that our Navy at the present
time is the second in efficiency. Our position, however, is largely due to the fact that
during the last fiscal year our sea strength and fighting efficiency have been increased by
the completion and deliv'ery of a number of new battleships and cruisers of the largest
and most approved type, but we will not maintain this position very long unless Congress
shall authorize the building of additional ships. It is of the highest importance that old
and practically obsolete ships be replaced by ships of the newest type. It is pretty generally
conceded that the battleship is the fighting machine, and it is also jiretty generally conceded
that the most effective battleship is the all-big-gun ship of the Delaware type. As com-
pared with other naval powers, we are deficient in destroyers and submarines, and are
also woefully deficient in colliers.
I have given the most careful consideration to the reports of both boards, and earnestly
recommend that Congress authorize, at its coming session, the construction of the follow-
ing vessels:

298 The Initiative and Beferendum.
The political institutions known as Initiative and Referendum are those by which
the body of t/he electorate may initiate measures to be enacted by their own vote into
laws, and by which laws enacted by the Legislatures are referred to and approved and
rejected by the people. The first appearance of these propositions was in Switzerland
about the sixteenth century, but made great strides there in recent j-ears, being in effect
in every canton except Freiburg. The Referendum may be divided into Referendums of
(a) entire constitutions, (b) amendments to constitutions, (c) of laws affecting the \vhole
btate, and (d) of laws affecting parts of States or localities only.
REFERENDUMS OF WHOLE CONSTITUTIOXS.
Massachusetts in 1778 was the first State to refer its whole constitution to popular
approval, followed closely by New Hampshire (1783j, Connecticut (1818J, and Maine U^liM,
Rhode Inland (1824, rejected). New Yoi-k (the first State out of New England, in 1821),
Virginia (1829), Georgia (1S.S3(, Tennessee (1834), North Carolina and Michigan, in 18o>.
Since 1835 all new Constitutions except those of Delaware (18!>u). Mississippi (1890). and
South Carolina (1895) have been submitted to popular vote after leaving the hands of the
Convention or Legislature.
AMENDMENTS TO CONSTITUTIONS,
Amendments to Constitutions are made by Conventions called on a Referendum in
thirty States— Alabama, California. Colorado, Delaware, Florida. Idaho, Illinois, Iowa,
Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri. Montana, Nebraska, Nevada,
New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina. Ohio, South Carolina, South Dakota, Ten-
nessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming— and in
fifteen — Arkansas. Connecticut, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts. Mis-
sissippi. New Jersey, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania. Rhode Island, Texas, and
Vermont— by the Legislature, and are referable to the people in forty-three States, 'the
exceptions being Delaware and South Carolina.
LAWS AFFECTING THE WHOLE STATE.
1. When the vote of the people is authorized by the Constitution. This is the Refer-
endum in its narrower sense, and in this aspect is now a matter of political interest.
The Constitution of South Dakota (1898) provides: "The legislative power of the State
shall be vested in a Legislature, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives, except that the people expressly reserve to themselves the right to propose
measures (initiative), which measures the Legislature shall enact and submit to a vote ot
the electors of the State, and apo the right to require that any .laws which the Legis.a-
ture may have enacted shall be submitted to a vote of the electors of the State betore
going into effect." The Constitution of Oregon (1902) contains a similar provision. So
far. however, no other State has incorporated this initiative and referendum clause in
general terms in its Constitution. Special provisions, nevertheless, are the subject of
referendum, as the location of the capital of the State and of State institutions the
limitation of expenditure or of the debt, and in Colorado, Montana, Idaho, and Utah the
maximum tax rate, the franchise and manj- like questions.
2. When no authorization for such vote is contained in the Constitution. Thf refer-
ence of general laws to the people in the absence of express constitutional authority was
early attempted, but has generally been held unconstitutional. Barto vs. Himrod. 4 Seld
(N. 'y.) 483. is the leading case. But the reference of a time when a law shall take
effect has been held constitutional— uiwn this many of the State prohibitory Liquor Laws
are based, as in Michigan (1852), Vermont (18.52). Maine (1858), North Carolina (1881).
Other matters of a general nature have been so referred— e. g., the seat of Government
(California. 18.50), free schools (New York, 1S49), minority representation on corporations
(New Jlampshire. 1880). contract labor in prisons (New York, 1883), Chinese immigra-
tion (Nevada, 1880), woman suffrage (Massachusetts, 1895).
LAWS AFFECTING PARTS OF STATES OR LOCALITIES ONLY.
The reference of such laws to the vote of the people of the locality affected is held
to be not unconstitutional in legislation determining the area, boundaries, etc., of local
political districts; the selection of county seats and sites, the selection of a corporate name,
and the choice of a citv charter or local government, in which the referendum is made
obligatory in some States. So, also, propositions to remove the fire and police departments
of Jersey City were referred to the inhabitants in 1885; to reform the Civil Service in
any city of Illinois (1895); to increase the number of supervisors in Iowa (1897), Nebraska
(1897), North Dakota (1895). and Ohio (1890). Every pha.se of legislation in wbich there
is danger to the legislator is apt at some time to be so referred, including loan bills and
financial proposals of all kinds.
THE INITIATIVE.
The initiative is either a riglit reserved by the peoT>le of a State in their Con.stitu-
(ion to originate propositions to be enacted into law by the Legislature and ratified by
the vote of the people, or that giving a number of voters in a community the right to
oause an election to be held upon a permitted question (as whether liquor shall be sold m
the town), and if the vote be in favor of a change then the new condition to obtain
under a previously passed statute of the State Legislature. The initiative in its largf^r
aspect has authority only in South Dakota and Oregon, and there its operation excludes
only matters of emergency, as the preservation of -the ])ublic peace, health, or safety.
In its local aspect it has been called in to inaugurate a vast variety of matters of local
interest,— prohibition, county seats, live stock and fencing laws, high-school laws— finding
its greatest development in Oregon, South Dakota. Nebraska, California, and Iowa.
The Initiative and Referendum constitute a political force or medium opposed in
action to the Legislature as the delegated authority of the people, and the various labor
and people's parties have turned to them as a means of holding in their owm hands a
larger measure of the sovereign power which, under the older theories of government,
was entirely delegated to their representatives.
Ifational Qrange, Patrons of J/iishandn/. ^9f)
Clje ):nlantr saiatcrtua^s (^onbcntion.
The President of the United States on November 17, 1907. issued an invitation to the
Governors of the States and Territories to meet liim at the White House, Washington, on
May 13, 14, and lo, 11)08, to discuss the question af means to conserve the natural
resources of the country. Invitations are to be extended to the members of the two
Houses of Congress and to the Inland Waterways Commission.
The following is the text of the invitation to each of the Governors:
'•The natural resources of the territory of the I'nited States were, at the time of the
settlement, richer, more varied, and more available than those of any other equal area on
the surface of the earth. The development of these resources has given up, for more than
a century, a rate of increase in population and wealth undreamed of by the men who
founded our Government and without parallel in history. It is obvious that the prosperity
which we now enjoy rests directly upon these resources. It is equally obvious that the
^■igor and success which we desire and foresee for this Nation in the future must have
this as the ultimate material basis.
"In vievi- of these evident facts, it seems to me time for the country to take account
of its natural resources and to inquire how long they are likely to last. We are pros-
perous now; we should not forget that it will be just as important to our descendants to
be prosperous in their time as it is to us to be prosperous in our time.
"Recently I expressed the opinion that there is no other question now before the
Nation of equal gravity with the question of the conservation of our natural resources,
and I added that it is the plain duty of those of us who, for the moment, are responsible
to make inventory of the natural resources which have been handed down to us. to fore-
cast as well as we m.ay the needs of the future, and so to handle the great sources of
our prosperity as not to destroy in advance all hope of the prosperity of our descendants.
"It is evident that the abundant natural resources on which the welfare of this
Nation rests are becoming depleted, and in not a few cases are already exhausted. This
is true of all portions of the United States; it is especially true of the longer settled
communities of the East. The gravity of the situation inust. I believe, appeal with special
force to the Governors of the States, because of their close relations to the people and
their responsibility for the welfare of their communities.
"I have therefore decided, in accordance with the suggestion of the Inland Water-
ways Commission, to ask the Governors of the States and Territories to meet at the
White House on May 13, 14, and l.j, to confer with the President and with each other
upon the conservation of natural resources. It gives me great pleasure to invite you to
take part in this conference. I should be g'lad to have you select three citizens to
accompany you and to attend the conference as your assistants or advisers. I shall
also invite the Senators and Representatives of the Sixtieth Congress to be present at
the sessions, so far as their duties will permit.
"The matters to be considered at this conference are not confined to any region
or group of States, but are of vital concern to the Nation as a whole, and to all the
people. Those subjects include the use and conservation of the mineral resources, the
resources of the land, and the resources of the waters in every part of our territor.v.
"In order to open discussion I shall invite a few recognized authorities to present
brief descriptions of actual facts and conditions without argument. It- aving the conference .
to deal with eac'h topic as it may elect. The members of the Inland Waterways Com-
imission will be present, in order to share with me the benefit of information and sug-
gestion, and, if desired, to set forth their provisional plans and conclusions.
"Facts which I cannot gainsay force me to believe that 'the conservation of our
natural resources is the most weighty question now before the people of the United
States. If this is so. the proposed conference, which is the first of its kind, will be
among the most important gatherings in our history in its effect upon the welfare of
all our people.
"I earnestly hope, my dear Governor, that you will find it possible to be present.
Sincerely yours, ^HBODORE ROOSEVELT."

K\)t <StatcIjootr of ([^Ulajoma.
By Chapter 3, 335 of the Statnte'=« of the United States, passed at tlie First Session of Ihe^ifty-
ninth Congress, and approved June 16, 1906, it was provided that the inhabitants of the Territory
of Oklahoma and of the Indian Territory may adopt a constitution and become the State of Okla-
homa on complying with the followins? requirements: They siiall vote for and choose delegates to a
Constitutional Convention, at an election ordered by the Governor of the Territory of Oklahoma and
theseiiior Judge in service in the United States Courts in the Indian Territory jointly, sixty days
prior to said election and within six months after the approval of this act. The delegates so electnd
shall meet at (xuthrie, Oklahoma, on the second Tuesday after their election, and proceed to form a
constitution and state Government for said State. Said constitution shall be submitted to the i)eople
for ratification or rejection at a time designated by said convention. It shall be the duty of the
President of the United States within twenty days after the receipt of the certificate of the result of
such election, if said constitution shall have been ratified, to issue a proclamation announcing thj
result, "and thereupon the proposed State of Oklahoma shall be deemed admitted by Congress into
the Uiiion. under and by virtue of this act, on an equal footing with the original States. "
Tlie election of delegates to the Constitutional Convention under this act was held on November
6,1906. The Constitutional Convention met at Guthrie on November 20, 1906, and after a session
of four months formed a State Constitution which was submitted to the people September 17, 190",
and was adopted by an overwhelming majority.
At the same election five representatives in Congress and State OflBcers were elected. (See
election returus for results.)
THE STATE CONSTITUTION.
The most notable feature of the State Constitution was its provisions for the regulation of corpo-
rations. In line with its other corporation provisions were the adoption of 2-cent passenger fares,
electric lines not included, and the aljolition of the doctrine of the fellow-servant.
The initiative and referendum was given a prominent place in the constitution, butthe right of
recall usually regarded as practically a parallel proposition, was rejected.
Separate schools for white and negro children were provided; all other races than negroes being
classed as * ' white. ' '
The State was given the right to engage in any business or occupation, but the grant was limited
by the qualification that it shall be ' ' for public purposes. ' '
Trial by jury was granted in contempt cases for violations of injunctions or orders of restraint, and
an opportiinity to be heard must begiven on all contemj>ts before punishment is imposed. Three-
fourths jury verdicts were provided for in civil cases and criminal cases less than felony. The grand
jury system was not made mandator}-. Persons were granted immunity from prosecution if their
testimony incriminated themselves.
Records, books and films of all corporations shall be subject to full visitation and inquisition,
notwithstanding the immunities and privileges conferred by the bill of rights.
For every sale, the applicant must make a sworn statement as to the purpose for which the liquor
is to he used, and each sale must be registered.
The control of all public-service corporations was vested in a corporation commission of thre^
members, elected by the people for six- year terms. Commissioners are required to take an oaih that
they are not interested directly or indirectly in an.v company which may come under their super-
vision. All railroads, oil, pipe, car, express, telephone or telegraph lines are required to receive and
transport each other' s business without dela.v or discrimination. All railroads were dt^clared public
highways. Public service corporations and their officials were prohibited from consolidating with or
owning stock in any competing corporation.
"Transportation companies" were defined as including railroads, street railwaj's, canals,
steamboat lines, freightcar companies or car associations, express companies and sleeping-car com-
panies. "Transportation companies" include telegraph and telephone lines, and both of these
classes were rated as common carriers.
The common law doctrine of fellow-servant was abrogated as to all railroad, street or internrban
electric lines and mining companies, and recovery may be had as fully in cases where death occurs
as where it does not.
Campaign contributions bj' corporations were forbidden and it was sought to prevent the issuance
of watered stock by providing that no stock shall be issued except for money, labor done or property
actually received to the amount of the par value of the stock.
ADMITTED TO THE UNION.
The President of the United States on November 16, 1907, signed the Constitution of Oklahoma
and issued a proclamation announcing its admission as a State into the Union.
The Census Bureau on September 19, 1907, reported the result of a Special Census taken of the
population of the new State. It showed a total population of 1,414,042, the population of the
formerTerritory of Oklahoma being 7'.J1, 142, and of the former Indian Territory, 692,901.
• ^rifona antr l!<rtto J^ntco.
The same act which provided for the Statehood of Oklahoma, also provided that the inhabitants
of the Territoriesof Arizona and New ]\rexico siiould, on November6, 1906, vote on the question
whether the two Territories should be united to form one State, to be known as the State of Arizona.
At the same election they should vote for delegates to a Constitutional Convention. Should the vot?,
on statehood be favorable in both Territories, and not otherwise, a convention to form a constitution
for the newstate should meet at Santa Fcon Thursda.v, December 6, 1906. The constitution so formed
should be submitted to the people of the two Territories within ninety days from the adjournment of
said convention. Should said constitution be ratified, the President of "the United States should,
within twenty days after the receipt of the certificate of the result, issue a proclamation announcing
the same, and thereupon the State of Arizona should be deemed to be admitted to the Union on an
equal footing with the original States.
The act provided for the representation of the new State in the House of Representatives in Con-
gress by two members.
At the election of Xovember 6, 1906, a majority of the inhabitants of New Mexico voted in favor
of joint statehood and a majority of the inhabitants of Arizona voted against it. The provisions of
this act, so far as they related to Arizona and New Mexico, therefore became void, and they continue
i»a Territories.
TUe Prosectition of the Standard Oil (Jotnpany, 301
K\^t prosrcutfon of tijc .^tantJarTi <l^il (Srompans^
Prosecuitinn of the Standard Oil t'oiiipany of New Jersey and many f^f its more than
one hundred subsidia/ry companies under the anti-trusL^ laws of the United Slates and of
several States, instituted by the United States Attorney-General and the Attorneys-General
of Ohio, Missouri, Kansas and Texas, was a noteworthy feature of the year i;)07. Under
the Elkins law, the Standard Oil corporations were indicted in several different cases, on
an agg-regate of S,300 counts for accepting- rebates from railroads. The penalty on con-
viction of each count is a fine of from $1,000 to $20,000. Most of these cases were pending
at the close of the year, but the indictment of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana, which
was tried before Judge Kenesaw M. Landis in the United States District Court at Chicago,
resulted in a conviction on 1,4G2 counts and the imposition of the maximum fine of
$2!J,240,000. The fine is the largest ever assessed against any individual or any corporation
in the liistory of American criminal jurisprudence. The charge against the Standard
corporation was accepting a secret i-ale of 0 cencs a barrel on shipments from Whiting,
Ind., to St. Louis, the legal and publislied tariff rate being 18 cents. In imposing the fine
Judge Landis delivered a long opinion on August o, in which the methods and practices of
the Standard Oil Company were mercilessly discussed. Judge Landis said in his opinion:
"To the extent that the Standaa'd Oil Company has not paid what the law requires that it
should paj-, the shippers of other kinds of property have had to bear the burden. To the
rate which it would be fair for the railroad to charge for the transportation of products
of the farm and factory has been added what the Standard Oil Company did not pay for
the transportation of its property. And herein lies not the least vicious element of such
a system. In addition to this is the question of common honesty among men which ought
not to be altogether ignored in business even in this day. The conception and execiit.on
of such a commercial policy necessarily involves the contamination of subordinate officers
or employees, even looking to the time when testimony will be required for the protection
of the revenues of the offender from the exactions of the law for its violation. We might
as well look at this situation squarely. The men who thus deliberately violate the law
■wound society more deeply than does he who counterfeits the coin or steals letters from
the mail."
Testimony was being taken at the close of the yeair in an action for an injunction
against the continuance of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey and to annul its
charter. This was brought by the United States Government through the Attorney-
General. The bill of complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Missouri, and the defendants named included the Standard of New
Jersey and its many subsidiary companies, and these directors individually: John D.
Rockefeller, William Rockefeller, Heni-y M. Flagler, Henry H. Rogers, Oliver H. Payne
and John D. Archbold. These inen were directors of the Standard Oil Trust formed
in Ohio in 18S2. Hearings in New York in September and October before Special Examiner
Ferriss disclosed for the first time the list of Standard Oil stockholders and their shares*
In Augtist, 11)07, the total capitalization of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey was
$98,338,300. John D. Rockefeller ov/ned $2-4.700,200, Oliver H. Payne $4,000,000. Henry M.
Flagler $3,050,000. Henry H. Rogers $1,602,000, William Rockefeller $1,170,000, and John
D. Archbold $600,000.
The average rate of dividends paid by the Oil Trust under one name or another, but
continuously under the same control, from 1SS2 to 1906, was 24.15 per cent. The total
amount paid in dividends during that period was $551,992,90-4.50. The net earnings or
profits of the corporation were shown to have aggregated over $800,000,000 from 1882 to
1906. In the year 1906 the net earnings were $83,122,251, more than 841-^ per cent, on
the capitalization. The gross assets at the end of 1906 were $371,664,531.
In 1900 the dividends paid out aggregated $46,691,474, and in 1901 the amount was
$46,775,390. In 1906 the dividends were $30,335,320. A computation based on John D.
Rockefeller's holdings, which varied slightly from year to year, showed that in the period
1882-1906 he received in dividends on his oil stock $143,499,954. More than one-half o<f
the entire $98,338,300 stock of the Standard Oil Company was owned by thirty-one share-
holders.
Suits were pending at the close of the year to oust the Standard and its subsidiary
companies from the States of Ohio, Kansas and Missouri under the anti-trust laws.
Texas had previously ordered all known branches of the oil monopoly not to do business
In the State, and early in the year secured a conviction with a heavy fine against the
Waters-Pierce Oil Company. On November 6 Attorney-General Davidson, of Texas,
brought action against eleven subsidiary companies of the Standard, demanding $75,900,000
in penalties for alleged violations of the State's anti-trtist l£(,ws. Receivers for the eleven
companies were asked for also. An injunction was granted restraining the defendant
companies from removing any of their property from the State.
In May the Federal Bureau of Corporations published a report on the "Position of
the Standard Oil Company in the Petroleum Industry," which showed that tlie Standai-d
controls over 85 per cent, of the refining and sale of oil in the United States. A striking
feature of the report was the defiance of the Interstate Commerce Act by the Standard's
Pipe Lines, which were shown to be one of the main supports of the monopoly's power.
In August the same Bureau published a report on "Prices and Profits in the Oil
Business." This showed a great increase in recent years in the margin between the price
of crude oil and the prices of illtiminating oil and other products. It showed enormous
variance in prices charged in competitive and non-competitive localities, and that the oil
shipped to foreign countries by the Standard was sold there at xnuch lower prices thau
to the American consumer.

State Legislation Regulating Ralb'oad Hates. 303
^_ - ■ ■ — -— ■■ ■ ■ *
<Statr ILcflislatioii Mefiulathiji Bailtoatr iiates.
/ The year 1007 was prolific in enactments by State Legislatures requiring railroads to
'make effective lower interstate passeng-er rates. In each instance this legislation was con-
tested, and a number of suits are now pending in lower courts. These will be expedited for
the purpose of securing an early opinion from the United States Supreme Court, but this is
not expected until some time in the present year. Notable disputes arose in North Carolina
and Alabama, where the new laws are now being operated under an agreement. An arrange-
ment was reached in Virginia without litigation. Legislation looking to lower passenger
rates was enacted in Minnesota, Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Pennsylvania,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri, Kentucliy, Florida and New York. Governor Hughes
vetoed the 2-cent fare bill passed by the New York Legislature. Two courts in Pennsyl-
vania pronounced the 2-cent law of that State unconstitutional. The passenger rates
effective Jn the various States on December 1 follow, all being applicable to interstate traffic:
Alabama, 2% cents; Arkansas, 2 cents; Georgia, 2 cents on the Atlanta and West Point
Railway, 2% cents on the Atlantic Coast Line and on the Georgia Railway; 2iX> cents on
the Central of Georgia, Southern Railway, Seaboard Air Line, Georgia Southern and Florida
and on the Alabama Great Southern, and 3 cents on all other railroads. Illinois, 2 cents;
Indiana, 2 cents; Iowa, 2 cents. Maryland roads charging more than 2 cents shall issue
mileage books at 2 cents per mile. Michigan, 2 cents on the Lower Peninsula, 3 cents on
tive Upper Peninsula; Minnesota, 2 cents; Mississippi, 2 cents; Missouri, 2 cents; Nebraska,
2 cents; New York, 3 cents (except on the New York Centi-al, which charges 2 cents), 2-cent
rmileage books; North Carolina, 2^4 cents; North Dakota, 2V> cents, and 2-centj mileage
■'books; Ohio, 2 cents; Pennsylvania. 2 cents; South Dakota, 2^/^ cents; Virginia, 2 cents on
'trunk lines, all other roads 21/^ to 3i^ cents; West Virginia, 2 cents; Wisconsin, 2 cents.
The New York, New Haven and Hartford voluntarily reduced its rates to 2 cents
per mile.
On July 1, 1907, all the Hill lines began issuing 3,000-mile mileage books at 2i/^ cents
per mile.
These were all the States in which laws were enacted regulating interstate passenger
rates. In a number of States the rates were accepted by the railroads, but in Alabama,
North Carolina, Nebraska. Virginia and Mississippi litigation is pending.
Judge Vandeventer, of the United States Circuit Court, on August 1, 1907, issued an
injunction restraining the State of Arkansas from declarin'g forfeited the property of the
Rock Island Railroad in that State and collecting a fine of $1,000 per day for violations
of the State statutes. This decision was based on the ground that, as the Rock Island is
an Iowa corporation, it had a rjght to be heard in a United States Court.
The Pennsj'lvania 2-cent fare law was pronounced unconstitutional by two courts on
the gi-ound that it is virtually confiscatory.
CONFLICT OF JURISDICTION IN NORTH CAROLINA.
The 2'%,-c&i\t rate act in North Carolina aroused considerab'.e friction between the
Pederal and State authorities, and a serious clash was threatened. The situation was so
acute at one time that President Roosevelt and Attorney-General Bonaparte sent Edward T.
Sanford, an assistant in the Department of Justice, to North Carolina, where he conferred
with both factions, counselled a compromise, and succeeded in bringing about an arrange-
ment of differences.
Before the North Carolina law went into effect the Southern Railroad obtained an
injunction from Judge Pritchard. of the United States Circuit Court, restraining the State
Railroad Commission and others from enforcing the act. It was provided in the order,
at the suggestion of the railroad company, that each person who purchased a ticket should
be griven a coupon entitling the holder to recover the difference between 2 14 cents a mile
and the rate charged.
Governor Glenn and other parties declared this to be a defiance of the State, and pro-
ceeded to arrest ticket agents of the Southern at Asheville and Raleigh. The agents at
Asheville were released on a writ of habeas corpus by Judge Pritchard. Those at Raleigh
were assessed a nominal fine, and the railroad company was fined $.30,000. The agents paid
their fine. An appeal was taken from the $.30,000 fine to the State Supreme Court. The
case has been argued and submitted, but a decision not yet rendered.
After the proceedings at Asheville, when it became apparent that the railroad would be
involved in an ugly controversy with the State, the company jielded temporarily the pro-
tection of the United States Court and asked Judge Pritchard to modify his order so as
to make the 214-cent rate effective pending proceedings in his court. This was done under
an agreement with Governor Glenn and the State Railroad Commission. The agreement
was put into effect August 8. It is provided -that the State shall appeal from Judge
Pritchard's decree releasing the Asheville agents on a writ of habeas corpus. Also that
an appeal be taken in the Raleigh case. Both cases will be advanced in the United States
Supreme Court. No moi-e indictments will be found or prosecutions brought until the
cases are determined.
Judge Pritchard appointed ex-Judge Walter P. Montgomery master to take testimony
in the cases. The railroad has presented its side, but the case for the State is still open,
delay having been requested.
LEGISLATION IN NORTH CAROLINA,
The passenger traffic situation also became acute in Alabama, through the misunder-
standing of a country lawyer, and threats were made that the licenses of certain trunk
lines would be revoked by Governor Comer. The Alabama Legislature passed a law
reducing passenger rates to 2y-> cents per mile and providing a maximum freight rate on
110 specific commodities. Also an act that any railroad undertaking to transfer a suit
from a State to a Federal Court should forfeit its charter. Judge Jones issued an injunc-
tion against the passenger and freight laws.
An old statute of the State provides that any foreign Corporation, not specifying rail-
roads, seeking to transfer a suit shall have its license revoked. The enforcement of this
act was not enjoined by Judge Jones. A local attorney presented a motion to have a case
not arising under any of the new legislation transferred to a United States Court. The
304 Prosecutloois Under the Anti-Hehate Law.
Secretary of State immediately revoked the license of the Southern Railroad to do business
in the State. The company yielded, and promised to put the 2V:«-cent rate into effect
pending a decision of the Courts. The Atlantic Coast Line and other roads at first refused
to join in this agreement and continued the old rates. They did not seek to transfer suits,
and their licenses could not be revoked. On December 8 the Atlantic Coast Line officials,
after a long conference with Governor Comer, agreed to stop further litigation and accept
the new State laws on the same conditions which the Southern and other roads came under.
The Mobile and Ohio, and Alabama and Great Southern made an agreement which be-
came effective December 1, I'JOT, to charge a passenger rate of 2% cents per mile.
In \'irginia, after an investigation by the Corporations Commission, an order was issued
that certain main line railroads in the State should not charge more than 2 cents per mile.
Less important lines and branch roads were permitted to charge graded rates up to '6\-i
cents per mile.
The Southern Railroad obtained an injunction against the Corporations Commission on
the ground that its action was unconstitutional, confiscatory, and that it had no jurisdiction.
After the North Carolina troubles were settled, the Southern made an agreement to ob-
.serve the order issued by the Virginia Corporations Commission, pending proceedings in the
Courts. No testimony has yet been taken in this case.
J^rostcutton of trusts li^ tijc S^lnitetr cStatcs.
Under the provisions of the Sherman Anti-Trust Law, the United States Government
brought six important actions against corporations alleged to be combinations in restraint
of trade during the year 1007. Only two of these have been decided, and in each a con-
viction was secured. The remainder of the cases are p(.ndiag. The principal actions and
their status on December 1 were as follows:
March 12 — Indictment returned against the American Seating Company et al, in the
District Court of the Northern District of Illinois, charged with beang a combination in
restraint of trade in the manufacture and sale of school furniture. On April 1 all de-
fendant corporations except one, the E. H. Stafford Manufacturing Companj', entered
jjleas of guilty and fines aggregating $4o,000 were imposed on May 20.
April 4 — Indictment returned against the Santa Rita Miming Company and the Santa
Rita Store Company in the District of New Mexico, charging them with being a com-
bination in restraint of trade. Fine of $1,000 imposed.
June 12— Bill in equity filed in the Circuit Court for the Eastern District of Pennsyl-
vania against the Reading Company et al, to dissolve a combination among the anthra-
cite coal carrying roads and others.
July 1 — Indictment returned in the District Court of Eastern Pennsylvania against the
National Umbrella Frame Company et al, charging a consiiiracy to restrain interstate
trade and commerce in the manufacture and sale of umbrella material.
July 10 — Bill in equity filed in the Circuit Court of the Southern District of New York
against the American Tobacco Company and others, charging them with maintaining a
coiTtbination in restraint of trade in the manufacture and sale of tobacco.
July 30— Bill in equity filed in the Circuit Court for the District of Delaware against
E. I. Du Pont, de Nemours & Co. and others, in which it is alleged they are maintaining
a combination in restraint of trade in the manufacture of gunpowder and other high
explosives.
Prosecutions ^aiitrti* tljc .^nti^^ilcijatr ILaU)*
Thirty-four actions were brought during the year 1007 under the provisions of tho
Elkins act, forbidding the giving or acceptance of rebates. Only three of these were
decided, and in all the Government secured convictions. Heavy fines were imposed. The
actions and their status on December 1, 1007, Were as follows:

312 Principal Trusts in the United States."
,_^ ■ — "
* Trust, as popularly understood, means a consolidation, combine, pool, or agreement
of two or more naturally competing concerns, which establishes a limited monopoly with
power to fix prices or rates in any industry or group of industries.
t These 2r>l industrial combinations or trusts, Avith a total capital of .$G, 905. 700,000 are
selected (with very few exceptions* from over l..">tH) of the corporations described in * "Moo-
dy's Manual of Corporation Statistics." Mr. Moody says in his '"Truth About the Trusts"
that there are in the United States over 440 large industrial, franchise, and transportation
trusts of an important and active character, with a total floating capital of $20,:i70,162,511.
% The amount of stock issued is taken when known; when not known the amount
authorized Js given.
§ The rates of dividend given on preferred stocks are usually the rates to which these
stocks are entitled. The rates actually paid are often less, especially when no dividend is
paid on the common stock.
*\ The I'nited States Steel Corporation acquired the following amounts (practically all)
of the stocks of the following companies: Federal Steel Co. pfd. .$j3,2G0.!>00, com. $4(3,4.S4,:'.0!);

Besides the incorporated industrial trusts there are innumerable price and rate-fixing
agreements, profit-sharing pools, selling or buying agencies, product-restricting agreements
etc. They exist in nearly every industry and in nearly every State and city. They are
often very effective for longer or shorter periods. Thus, much of the profits "of the "steel-
raii makers during the last twenty years is due to the Steel-Rail Manufacturers' Associa-
tion. Pools or agreements control the prices of steel beams, steel billets, armor plate and
in fact, with intermittent relapses, the prices of most important steel and hardware
products. The price for iron ores in the Great Lakes districts is fixed vearly by the
Bessemer and non-Bessemer .Associations. The .Anthracite Coal Trust was never niore^ than
an agreement by the principal carrying railroads as to production, freight rates and prir^.c;
A\ holesale .and retail grocers and druggists are more or less effective in controlling
prices in most States and cities. Lumber dealers and chemical manufacturers have many
price and selling agreements or pools.
Natural monopolies, such as railroads, street railways, gas, electric light and water
companies are not classed as trusts because they are not composed of naturally competing
concerns. Consolidations and price and rate-fixing agreements in these industries exist
m nearly ev&ry State and city in the country.
Many of the combinations in these lines are very important. Our greatest railroads
have rate-fixing agreements or "immunity of interest" understandings for controlling-
rates and the distribution of freights. Besides, they are rapidly coming together, through
absorption Into larger companies, so that 9om»*tJtjow, no Jonffer »xlsts in most sections ot

DoN'Tgoout in a pleasure boat without being assured that there are life-saving buoys or cushions
aboard sufficient to float all on board in case of an upset or collision. All persons should be seated
before leaving shore, and no one should attempt to exchange seats in midstream or to put a foot on
the edge or gunwale of the boat to exchange seat.s. Where the waters become rough from a sudden
squall or passing steamers, never rise in the boat, but settle down as close to the bottom as ])ossible,
and keep cool until the rocking danger is passed. If overturned, a woman's skirts, if held out by ber
extended arms, while she uses her feet as if climbing stairs, will often hold her up while a boat may
pull out from the shore and save her. A non-swimmer, by drawing his arms up to his side and push-
ing down with widely extended hands, while stair-climbing or treading water with his fiet, may
liold himself several minutes, often when a single minute means a lile; or throwing out the arms,
dog fashion, forward, overhand and pulling in, as if reaching for something— that maj' bring him in
reach of help. ^

Crawl, on the floor. The clearest air is the lowest in the room. Cover head with woollen wrap, wet
if possible. Cut holes for tiie e.ves. Don' t {i> t excited.
Ex-Chief Hugh Bonner, of "the New York Fire Department, gives the following rules applying to
houses, flats, hotels, etc.:
Familiarize yourself with the location of hall windows and natural escapes. Learn the location of
exits to roofs of adjoining buildings. Liarn tlie position of all stairways, particularlj' the top landing
and scuttle to the roof. Shoidd .you hear cry of "tire," and columns of smoke fill the rooms, above
all KEEP COOL. Keep the doors of rooms'shut. Open windows from the top. Wet a towel, stutT'it
in the mouth, hreatbe tlirough it instead of nose, soas not to inhale smoke. Standat window and get
benefit of outside air. If room fills with smoke keep close to floor and crawl along by the wall to the
window.
Do not Jump unle.ss the blaze behind is scorching you. Do not even then if the firemen with scal-
ing ladders are coming up the building or are near. "Xever go to tlie roof, unless as a last resort and
you know there is escape from it to adjoining buildings. In bisf buildings fire alwa.vs goes to the top.
Do not jump through name witlnn a buildiiig.withoiu first covering the head with a blanket or heavy
clothing and gauginsr the distance. Don' t get excited; try to recall the means of exit, and if any fire-
men are insight D<:>N'T JUMP.
If the doors of each apartment, especially in the lower part of the house, were closed every night
before the occupants retired there would not be such a rapid .spread of flames.

AS OBSERVED IN AMERICAN SOCIETY.
CALLS.
The hours for women's formal calls are between ,3 and G in the afternoon. , Men may
call in the evening or on Sunday afternoons if their engag-ements are such as to make it
impossible for them to call upon the "At Home" day. A formal call should not last more
than fifteen or twenty minutes. On an "At Home" day it may be even more brief. Calls
should, always be paid on a woman's "day," if possible. On other days it is permissible
for her to give orders to her servants that she is "not at home."
The first call is made by an old resident on a new comer. A bride receives caljs before
she pays them, A visiting stranger should be called upon by residents before she is
expected to pay any calls herself.
The reception of an invitation to any social function, whether the invitation be
accepted or declined, constitutes a social debt to be discliarged by a call. Failure to do
this is a slight to the hostess. The gwests invited to a wedd>ig must call on the mother
of the bride soon after the wedding, and call promptly on the bride as soon as she is
settled after her marriage. Calls are in order after a bereavement in a family. Calls of
inquiry, when there is illness in a household, are also desirable. Such calls as these are
made whether social calls are due or not.
First calls should be returned within a week or ten days after they are received. The
call should be on the "At Home" day, when feasible. Calls of purely formal acquaintances
should be exchanged at least once a season if the social relations between them is to be
maintained.
A man. In calling", leaves his overcoat, overshoes, and umbrella in the hall. At a first
call he may carry his hat and cane into the drawing-room with him, although this is nut
obligatory. At later calls he should leave them in the hall.
A woman wearing overshoes and a storm-coat when calling may leave them in the
hall with her umbrella.
When a man and a woman are calling together it is the man's place to wait for the
woman to give the signal to leave. When two women are calling together it is the place
of the senior of the two to make the first move. It is bad form to linger over the leavie-
takings after a start has been made.
CARDS,
Men's calling cards should be small, thin, and perfectly plain except for the inscrip-
tion in script, old English, or block lettering. The man's full name or the initials of his
Christian names and his surname should be given, always preceded by "Mr.," unless It is
followed by "Jr.," or in cases whei-e a title or a degree is appended. A physician may
have his name preceded by "Dr." or followed by "M. D." A clergyman's card may either
read "Reverend John H. Smith." or, if he has a degree, "John H. -Smith. D. D."
The address should be in the lower right-hand corner. If both a house and a cUib
address are given, the latter is in the lower left-hand corner, the former in the lower right-
hand corner.
Abbreviations or nicknames of any sort are out of place on a card. So are fac-simile
signatures.
The married woman's calling card is a little lajfger than that used by the unmarried
worrian. The cards for women are larger and heavier than those for men, are very plain,
and are lettered in the same fashion. The matron's card bears her married name, as
"Mrs. David James Pitkin," The address is in the lower right-hand corner, the "At
Home" day in the lower left-hand corner. The hours at which she is "At Home" are also
mentioned if she wishes to limit these.
The unmarried woman's card bears simply the title and the surname, if she is the
oldest or only daughter, as "Miss Brown." A younger daughter's given name should
appear, as "Miss Eleanor Brown." Young girls in their early social seasons have their
names engraved on the same cards with their mothers. A widow's card my bear either
her married name, as she wrote it in her husband's lifetime, or her own given names
preceding her surname.
When visiting a friend who is stopping in the house of some one who is a stranger
to the caller, the latter leaves a card for the hostess as well as for the friend. In calling
on other than an "At Home" day, the cards are handed to the maid at the door, after
the inquiry as to whether or not the hostess is at home. They are left in either case.
Cards may be made to take the place of a call on occasions of condolence, congratu-
lation, or inquiry. They may be left in person or sent by post. The former method iS'
better form.
INVITATIONS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS,
An invitation to a large and formal dinner should be sent out not less than a wepk
or ten days in advance. A reply should be sent within twenty-four hours. If the invitation
is written in the third person the reply should be couched in the same form. If it is
framed in a less formal way the answer should be in similar fashion. A written regret
should, of course, be sent if a person, after accepting an invitation to dinner, is prevented
from being present.
Invitations to large weddings are sent out from two to four weeks before the cere-
mony. No reply is necessary to an invitation unless especially requested. When a guest
is unable to attend a home wedding cards should be sent to the parents of the bride the
day of the marriage. No acknowledgment is demanded for cards to a church wedding,
although cards should be left for the bride's mother after the marriage. A good general
rule for all invitations, except those to church weddings, is to reply to them as promptly
as possible. Announcement cards should be met by a call on the bride's mother, or by
cards left for her, and by personal cards sent to the bride upon her return from her
wedding trip, or by a call in person on her "At Home" days. Out of town friends should
send cards, and the failure to acknowledge the receipt of a wedding announcement, by a
note or cards, is a serious breach of good manners, and warrants the inference that the
recipient is either ignorant or indifferent to the courtesy.
Cards should be left in acknowledgment of announcement of an engagement or a birth.
The notes of condolence which should always be sent to a bereaved family should be
acknowledged by a note, or by a card bearing a word of thanks or appreciation.

Whereas, Alfred Bernard Nobel, of the City of Stockholm, in the kingdom of Sweden,
having by his last will and testament provided that the residue of his estate shall constitute
a fund, the income from which shall be annually awarded in prizes to those persons who
have, during the year, contributed most materially to benefit mankind, and having further
provided that one share of said income shall be awarded to the person who shall have most
or best promoted the fraternity of nations and the abolishment or diminution of standing
armies and the formation and increase of peace congresses; and
Whereas the Norwegian Parliament having, under the terms of said foundation, elected
a committee lor the distribution of the peace prize, and this committee having in the year
1906 awarded the aforesaid prize to Theodore Roosevelt, President of the United States, for
his services in behalf of the peace of the world; and
Whereas the President desiring that this award shall form the nucleus of a fund the
income of which shall be expended for bringing together in conference at the City of Wash-
ington, especially during the sessions of Congress, representatives of labor and capital for
the purpose of discussing industrial problems, with the view of arriving at a belter under-
standing between employers and employees, and thus promoting industrial peace; therefore
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of
America in Congress assembled. That the Chief Justice of the United States, the Secretary
of Agriculture, and the Secretary of Commerce and Labor, and their successors in office,
together with a representative of labor and a representative of capital and two persons to
represent the general public, to be appointed by the President of the United States are
hereby created trustees of an establishment by the name of the Foundation for the Promo-
tion of Industrial Peace, with authority to receive the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to the
President and by him devoted to this foundation, and to administer it in accordance with
the purposes herein defined. Any vacancies occurring in the number of trustees shall be
filled in like manner by appointment by the President of the United States.
Section 2. That it shall be the duty of the trustees herein mentioned to invest and rein-
vest the principal of this foundation, to receive any additions which may come to it by
gift, bequest, or devise, and to invest and reinvest the same; and to pay over the income

ing at a better understanding between employers and employees; it shall call special con-
ferences in case of great industrial crises, and at such other times as may be deemed
advisable, and take such other steps as in its discretion will promote the general purposes
of the foundation; subject, however, to such rules and regulations as may be prescribed by
the trustees. The committee shall receive suggestions for the subjects to be discussed at
the annual or other conferences and be charged with the conduct of the proceedings at such
conferences. The committee shall also arrange for the publication of the results of the

of the United States was ratified and also all acts and parts of acts of the General
Assembly of this State ratifying amendments of the said Constitution are hereby repealed;
and that the Union now subsisting between South Carolina and other States under the
name of the United States of America, is hereby dissolved:
December 24 the Convention adopted a declaration setting forth the cause nf the
secession of the State, and the Governor issued a proclamation announcing the action of
the State.

DUX'S INDEX XUMBEll OF COMxMOUITV PRICES PROPOKl'tOXED TO C0XSU:M PTION.
Ix the following table UuQ'sIude.x Xumber is given for July 1 each year, begiuniug with 1861.
Figures are separated into the seven principal classes for convenience ol comparison. Many hundred
coiuniodities are embraced in the table, which covers practically ail the necessaries of life. In ex-
planation of the Index Number it should be stated that quaniiiies of each commodity are taken iu
accordance with the annual per capita cou.sumption, so that no article receives more or less than its
relative position of importance. As tlie same quantities are taken of the same articles at eacli date,
the record ijives a faithful representation of the course of prices. Owing to the impossibility ol ob-
tainingaccurate retail prices, wholesale quotations are taken. Consequently, to obtain the actual cost
of living per capita, it is necessary to add a certain percentage of pi'otit to ttie retailer. Otherwise the
Inde.x Xumber shows the actual wholesale cost of a year's supplies of all the neces.saries of lile for a
single individual at each date. There is no question of percentage.s, tlie exact tigures being given.
Thus, products costing $101. 92 on July 1, 1861, rose to $278.98 in 1864. declined to $72.45 in 1897,
and were $108. 95>^ at the latest date. • ' t

The ahp.n-e tables, except the data of merchant navies o^ the world for IS'iO, have been cnmpileil from the report of the
Commissioner of Navi.jation of the United States. Kussia in 1906-7 had a ttcnage of 1,327,627, and Spain of 747,237.
•From Bureau Veritas.
346 Bhiphuilding in the United States,
(From Census Bulletin No. bl.)
On January 1, 1905, 1,097 establishments, exclusive of those conducted by the Government,
were engaged in iron and steel or wooden shipbuilding. The combined capital of these estab-
lishments was $121,023,700. They employed, on an average, i"JU,754 wage-earners, paid
$29,241,087 in wages, used materials costing $37,403,179, and manufactured products which,
including repair work, were valued at $82,709,239.
A comparison of these figures with those for the census of 1S50 shows that the industry
has made remarkable progress. Although the number of establishments has not increased
materially, the capital invested has increased twenty-one fold and the value of the product
nearly fourfold. As the construction of iron and steel ships has grown in importance since
1S80, capital has become more essential to the development of the industry. During this
time the altered conditions, the rapid transition from wood to iron and steel construction,
have produced a progressive concentration of shipbuilding in large establishments. In ISSO
the 2,l8S establishments involved an investment of $20,979,874, and, including repair work,
gave an output of $30,800,327. Twenty-five years later neai-ly six times the amount of cap-
ital, $121,023,700, invested in about one-half the number of establishments, 1,097, gave an
output valued at $8^.709,239.
BRANCHES OF THE INDUSTRY.
In 1905 no less than 83.5 per cent, of the entire shipbuilding capital of the country was
invested in iron and steel construction, as against 77.4 per cent, for 1900. Of the total
number of private establishments reported in 1905, on the other hand. 95.1 per cent, were
engaged in wooden construction work, for of the entire number of shipbuilding establish-
ments not under governmental control only 54 were devoted to iron and steel construction,
while 1,043 were credited to wooden construction. For 1900 the relative position of the two
branches was nearly the same, as the number of establishments was 44 for iron and steel
and 1,003 for wood. The majority of the establishments engaged in iron and steel construc-
tion are of great size and require costly and expensive equipment, while most of those
engaged in wooden construction are small yards which perform minor repairs on small
vessels, and turn out wooden vessels of comparatively light tonnage.
MATERIALS USED.
Within the last fifteen years the increasing importance of iron and steel in shipbuilding
has been especially marked. As an item of expense in 1890 the cost of iron and steel was
less important than the cost of lumber, but in 1905 the cost of the former constituted 41.2
per cent, and the cost of the latter only 17.9 per cent, of the amount paid for materials.
PRODUCTS.
In 1880 the value of the work done on wooden vessels of five tons and over was nearly
three times as gri'eat as the value of work done on iron and steel vessels of the same class.
For 1905 conditions were practically reversed, for the value of iron and steel work was
nearly four times that of wood.
The value of "iron and steel construction" was $43,395,704, and of "wooden construc-
tion" $9,724,231, the total, $82,709,239, being completed by an output of $3,001,292 from
"small boats under five tons," $22,829,040 from repair work, and $3,818,972 from "all other
pfoducts."
Both in the capital invested and value of products New York and Pennsylvania have
always been among the leading States. Virginia has made the most striking progress.
Since 1880 this State has risen from twenty-second to third rank in value of products and
from seventeen to first rank in capital invested. California and Washington led on the
Pacific Coast, and Ohio and Michigan in the Great Lakes region.
Nearly three-fourths of the aggregate value of products of the shipbuilding industry was
produced in the Atlantic and Gulf district. Although there was a greater number of estab-
lishments in the Great Lakes district than on the Pacific Coast, the value of the output of
the latter was greater from the fact that on the Great Lakes many small establishments
exist because of the market there for small boats.
GOVERNMENT ESTABLISHMENTS.
An increasing navy has compelled the Government to equip the navy-yards adequately
for the repair work which necessarily results from the larger number of vessels now con-
tinually in commission. Government yards have also undertaken the construction of the
largest types of warships. As a result, the value of products of the Government establish-
ments increased from $11,022,312 for 1900 to $17,205,469 for 1905, or 56.6 per cent.
VESSELS LAUNCHED.
Of the total net tonnage of merchant vessels launched during 1904, 64.8 per cent,
were built in the shipyards of the New England States and New York, New Jersey, and
Pennsylvania, and of "the production of these States 59.6 per cent, was intended for the
lake and river trade.
The shipyards in the Atlantic and Gulf district launched vessels which aggregated a
greater tonnage and value than the combined output of the shipyards in the other districts.
With reference to the value of ships of five tons and over launched by private shipyards
in 1900, Pennsylvania, Maine, Virginia, and New York led, in the order named. Michigan,
for the Great Lakes, followed, with California sixth. Five years later Pennsylvania and
Virginia still held first and third places, respectively, but California had risen to second
place; Massachusetts supplanted New York in fourth place; Maine dropped to fifth, while
the State of Washington rose from eleventh .to sixth place. As a rule, the rank for steel
vessels closely approximates the rank for all classes and governs the relative position of the
State in shipbuilding.
EQUIPMENT OP SHIPYARDS.
The repair work of a shipyard is closely connected with the drydock and marine rail-
way equipment. Of the 1,097 private shipyards reported in 1905. 388. or 35.4 per cent., were
credited with 77.3 per cent, of the total value of ship repairs reported by all establishments.
Two-thirds of the drydocks are situated in the North Atlantic States. New York alone
had over one-third of the entire number. New Jersey, second in importance in this respect,
had as many drydocks as the entire North Central division. The South Atlantic States had
eighteen drydocks, the North Central States twenty-three, and the Western States only seven.

" Lawful money" includes gold coin, silver dollars, United States notes, and Treasury notes. United States notes are by
regulation receivable for customs so long as they continue redeemable in coin. There are still in use smill ainounta*f f 1 and
$2 United Stales and national b mk notes; also $500 and $1,000 silver certifl.-ates. Tr^/asu-y n )t s were issued for puiekases of
silver bullion, which was coined into dollars wherewith the notes are being redeemed as rapidly as pract;c»tJ«. T-ha
issue of national bank notes is practically dependent upon the market price of United Stales bonds ; when the [)remiuift is high
it is not piotitable to issue notes.
The above table was prepared for The World Almanac by Maurice Jj. Muhleman, former Deputy
Assistant United States Treasurer, New York.

ON THE INDIANS AND OTHER DEPENDENT PEOPLES.
The twenty-fifth annual session of the Lake Mohonk Conference,' at Lake Mohonk,
N. Y., held in 1907, adopted the following platform in reference to the Porto Ricans,
HawaJians, and Filipinos:
1. We urge that our Government shall steadfastly adhere to the principle that a
moral responsibilty, which we cannot neglect, and which is higher than all commercial
considerations, requires us to legislate and to administer so as to promote the highest
welfare of the people of these islands.
2. We urge that Congress shall without delay legislate so as to effect a radical reduc-
tion of the duties now collected on products of the Philippine Islands.
3. We advise that the greatest educational emphasis be put upon the primary schools
and the preparation of teachers therefor, and that such instruction shall have special
reference to industrial training. The utmost effort should be made to secure the enrol-
ment and attendance of all children. We maintain that it is the duty of Congress to
T>rovide adequately for such education, even if the necessary money were to come from
direct appropriation.
4. Education in the duties of citizenshfp is an essential element in social and political
progress. So fast as the Filipinos demonstrate their political capacity, jDowers of self-
government should be granted and enlarged.
5. We recommend Congressional enactment to enable a large number of persons in
the Philippine Islands to be naturalized as citizens of said islands. We believe that pro-
vision should be made by Congress whereby educated and duly qualified Porto Ricans
may become citizens of the United States.
6. We urge upon Congress immediate legislation to protect the inhabitants of our
Insular possessions against the great evils of the opium traffic and the opium habit,
which ali'eady threaten them.
7. We recommend that the application of the coastwise Shipping act be permanently
suspended with reference to the Philippines, and that Congress give serious attention to
legislation necessary to relieve Hawaii from the disadvantages which this law Imposes,
and encourage the industrial development of Porto Rico.
8. With clear recognition of the ability shown in the administration of affairs in the
Philippines, and the conviction that we have a body of competent men trained in colonial
administration, it still seems to us that the Bureau of Insular Affairs, whose functions
are essentially civil, should be Ultimately committed to some other department than the
Department of- War.

^"^t }3rctruction of Common iJricife,
Of the list of mineral products of the United States concerning which statistics are
collected by the National Geolog-ical Survey only three — pig- iron, copper, and bituminous
coal — exceeded in value in 1900 the products of the clays; and of the clays themselves
the product ranking hig-hest in value was, as heretofore, the common brick, of which
more than ten billions — to be exact, 10,027,039,000— were marketed during the last year,
says the Geological Survey.
The value of this great product amounted to $61,300,690, an increase of $93,687 over
the value for 1905, and constituted 47.30 per cent, of the value of all the brick ^nd tile
products and 3S.07 per cent, of the va'lue of the entire product of the clay industries.
The largest production of common brick in 1906 by any one State was reported by New
York, whose output amounted to 1,535,579,000 brick,
thousand. This quantity represents 15.31 per cent.
valued at $9,205,981, or about $6 per
of the entire output of the country.
and the value is 15.02 per cent, of the total.
The g-reater part of New York's common brick comes from the Hudson River region.
Next to New York the largest producer of common brick in 1906 was Illinois, which
(reported an output of 1,195.210,000 brick, valued at $5,719,906, or $4.79 per thousand.
The great common-brick producing region of Illinois is Cook County, and it was the
decline in price in this district that brought the average price per tihousand for the State
to $4.79, the lowest fur several years.
The only other State reporting more than a billion common brick was Pennsylvania,
w^ose marketed output amounted to 1.027, .541. 000 brick, valued at $6,586,374, or $6.41 per
•thousand. While third in quantity the product of this State was second In value and
•the average value per thousand was greater than that for either New York or Illinois.
Ohio's production of common brick in 1906 was fourth In quantity and value — 550,422.000
brick, valued at $3,243,157, or $5.S9 per thousand — and New Jersey's was fifth, amountmg
to 413. 25*^.000 brick, valued at $2,610,686, or $6.32 per thou.sand. __
The other States range from Kansas, with 314.371,000 brick, valued at $l,3(6,uo2, or
$4.38 per thousand, to South Dakota, with 6,064,000 brick, valued at $54,175, or $R.93 per
thousand. California's 278.780,000 common brick were valued at $1,962,866, or $(.Oij per
thotisand. The average price per thousand for <;ommon brick in 1900 was $6.11.

The coal-fields of China. Japan, Great Britain, Germany. Russia, and India contain apparentl}'
303.000.000,000 tons, which is enough for 450 years at present rate of consumption. If to the above
be added the coal-fields in the United States, Canada, and other countries, the siippl.v will be found
ample for l.oOO yeavs. Improved machinery has greatly increased the yield per miner, and thus
prod'iced a fall iii price to the advantage of all industries.

376 Copper and Lead Smelting. .
Copper antr Hcatr ^meltfns^
(From Census Bulletin No, 80.)
Aocordlng to the special reports to the Census Bureau, 103 establishments were'reported
as eng-aged in the combined industry of copper, lead and zinc smelting and refining, in
l!i04. Their combined capital was $164,349,036. They employed 26,853 wage-earners, paid
^20,058,200 in wages, consumed material costing $382,723,480, and manufactured products
to the value of $451,398,354.
At the Census of 1900 the lead smelting and refining industry was the most important
of the three branches, and copper was second; but at the census of 1905 the positions 'A^ere
reversed. At the later census the copper industry supplied 46.8 per cent, of the capital,
47.5 per cent, of the wage-earners, and 53.3 per cent, of the value of products, while the
lead industry furnished 38.8 per cent, of the capital, 28.2 per cent, of the wage-earners, and
41.2 per cent, of the value of products. That the growth of the copper industry has been
greater than the growth of the lead is partially due to an increase in the practice of
smelting the dry ores of the precious metals with copper instead of lead ores,
COPPER SMELTING AND REFINING.
Copper smelting and refining was the principal industry of 40 establishments, the com-
bined capital of which was $76,824,640. These establishments furnished employment to
12,752 wage-earners, paid $10,827,043 in wages, consumed materials costing $196,736,986,
and manufactured products to the value of $240,780,216.
WTien compared with the figures for the Census of 1900, those for 1905 show a decrease
of 14.9 per cent, in the number of establishments, but an increase of 44.8 per cent, in
capital, of 12.6 per cent, in wage-earners, of 26.9 per cent, in wages, of 61 per cent, in cost
of materials, and of 45.S per cent, in the value of products.
COPPER REFINED IN THE EAST.
The growth of the industry, however, has not been uniform in the sections east and
west of the Mississippi. The figures reveal a tendency toward the growth and concentra-
tion of the refining industry in the Eastern territory. In 1900 this territory reported only
S6.8 per cent, of the refining, while in 1905 it reported 98.8 per cent. The operations of
the Western establishments are now confined almost entirely to smelting, with, in a
majority of cases, the conversion of the matte into blister copper, which is electrolytically
refined in the East.
GOLD AND SILVER BY-PRODUCTS.
At the Census of 1905 the product of smelting was valued at $88,374,830 and that of
refining at $149,711,214. The products of smelting consisted roughly of .539.000,000 pounds
of fine copper contents of blister or anodes, valued at $60,000,000; 82,000,000 pounds of
fine copper contents of matte, valued at $9,000,000; 22,000,000 ounces of silver, valued at
$12,000,000, and 322,000 ounces of gold, valued at $6,000,000. The products of refining con-
sisted roughly of 934,000,000 pounds of ingots, wire, bars, etc.. valued at $119,000,000;
28,000.000 pounds of blue vitriol, valued at $1,000,000; 28,000.000 ounces of silver, valued
at $16,000,000, and 636,000 ounces of gold, valued at $13,000,000. Thus it appears that the
])roduct of the precious metals resulting from smelting and refining copper is valued at
pbout $29,000,000. In 1900 the product of the precious metals resulting from smelting and
refining copper was a little more than $12,000,000.
NEW JERSEY THE LARGEST PRODUCER.
New Jersey is the largest producer of refined copper, and between 1900 and 1905 it
increased its production of the total for the country. Of the 602.595,113 pounds of ingots,
wire, bars, etc., reported in 1900, New Jersey produced 28.3 per cent., while of the 933,809,-
701 pounds reported in 1905 it produced 35.6 per cent. The refining industry in New York
also made a great advance, so that the States of New Jersey and New Yoi-k reported for
1905 nearly two-thirds of the refined copper product of the country. Michigan was third
and Maryland fourth.
LEAD SMELTING AND REFINING.
Lead smelting and refining was the leading industrj' of 32 establishments, the aggre-
gate capital of which was $63,822,810. These establishments employed 7,573 wage-earners,
paid $5,374,691 in wages, consumed materials costing $168,958,076, and manufactured prod-
ucts valued at $185,826,839.
When compared with the corresponding figures given at the Census of 1900, those for
1905 show a decrease of 17.9 per cent, in the number of establishments, of 11.5 per cent, in
capital, and of 9 per cent, in the average number of wage-earners; but, on the other hand,
they show an increase of 5.6 per cent, in total wages, of 17.2 per cent, in cost of materials,
and of 5.9 per cent, in value of products. The decrease in the number of active establish-
ments, in capital invested, number of wage-earners and general operating expenses has
all been in the West, for establishments east of the Mississippi show increases in these
items.
The products of the lead smelting and refining Industry consisted of 783.000,836 pounds
of lead, valued at $30,357,901; of 2,574,549 ounces of gold, valued at $52,994,436, and of
72.592,987 ounces of silver, valued at $41,425,114. As compared with the corresponding
figures of 1900, those for 1005 show an Increase in quantity of 33.2 per cent, for lead, of
2.4 per cent, for gold, and of 3.1 per cent, for silver. In value lead increased 20.6 per cent,
and gold 1.9 per cent., but silver decreased 1.7 per cent. That the development of the
precious metals did not keep pace with that of lead Is not due to a decrease In the precious
metal values of the argentiferous lead ores treated, but results from the large Increase in
the quantity of dry gold and silver ores treated by the copper smelters. This increase
in the consumption of dry ores by the copper smelters has been at the expense of tlae
lead smelt?f§.

^f)c Jlron autJ .Strcl J;utiustra>.
(From Census Bulletin No. 78.)
From 1900 to 1905 the number of establishments in the United States has decreased
from tJbU to 606. At the same time capital Increased from $590,530,484 to $948,080,640; the
average number of wage-earners, from 222.007 to 242,740; wages, from $120,836,338 to
$141,439,906; the cost of materials used, from $522,431,701 to $620,171,881. and the value of
l^roducts, from $804,034,918 to $905,854,152. The tonnage produced in 1905 was $34,844,938,
an increase of 18.1 per cent, since 1900.
BLAST FURNACES.
The7-c wore, in 1905, 101 blast furnace establishments, 14.7 per cent, less than in 1900.
The capital invested was $239, .559, 194, an increase of 61. G per cent. Materials cost $178,-
967.449, 36.1 per cent, more than in 1900; the tonnage of products was 16,628,294, a gain
of 15.1 per cent., and the value $231,889,126, a gain of 12.1 per cent.
In the number of wage-earners there was a decline from 39,358 to 35,178 in 1905, due
chiefly to the use of pig iron casting machines in place of sand casting and to improve-
ments in charging devices and in ore handling machines for stocking and charging. The
reduction in the labor factor through the improvements in equipment, as might be expected,
i.«; balanced by a corresponding increase in the capital invested. The investment in build-
ings, machjnery, tools and implements in 1905 in active establishments averaged $8.24 per
ton of pig iron produced, as compared with $5.48 per ton in 1900, an increase of 50.4 per cent.
PIG IRON MANUFACTURED.
Considerable more pig iron was made with mixed coke and bitumlnovis coal as fuel in
1905 than in 1900, and less with anthracite coal and with mixed anthracite coal and coke.
The quantity of charcoal pig iron, although greater than in 1900, was relatively small.
Bessemer and low-phosphorus, of which there were 8,894,584 tons and 192,795 tons, re-
spectively, together formed 54.7 per cent, of all pig iron pi'oduced in 1905. Basic pig iron
to the amount of 2,553,940 tons. 172.4 per cent, more than in 1900, formed 15.4 per cent, of
the total, and foundry pig, 3,679,243 tons, formed 22.1 per cent, of the total. None of the
remaining grades reported— malleable, Bessemer, forge, white and mottled, and miscel-
laneous grades, ferrosilicon, spiegeleisen, ferromanganese, and direct castings — formed as
much as 4 per cent, of the total.
IRON FOR STEEL MAKING.
Iron for steel makinsf — comprising Bessemer, low-phosphorus, basic, ferrosilicon, spiegel-
eisen and ferromanganese— aggregated 11,921,-578 tons, an increase of 23.4 per cent, over the
production of like grades in 1900. The major part of the pig iron product— 9,926,545 tons,
or 59.7 per cent. — was made by establishments controlling steel works and rolling mills for
consumption therein. After deducting this and the quantity purchased from independent
establishments by steel works and rolling mills— 2,264,683 tons— there remains out of the
total pig iron production 16,628,294 tons— 4,437,066 available for foundries, other indus-
tries, etc.
With the development of the Bessemer and open-hearth processes there has resulted
the practice of retaining the blast-furnace metal in molten condition. Casting machines
have also been extensively inti-oduced, and to a small extent the practice of chill casting
ot casting on an iron floor. Of all pig iron made, 6,083,513 tons were sand cast, 5,898.744
tons were delivered in molten condition to Bessemer converters, open-hearth furnaces, ^tc. ;
4,307,108 tons were machine cast, 329,460 chill cast, and 9,469 were direct castings.
The most important impi'ovement of late years in the blast furnace industry is the
Gayley dry-air blast, which, by eliminating the effect of the moisture of the air and its
tendency to consume heat energy, results in the following economies: a reduction^ of some
20 per cent, in- the fuel consumed per unit of pig ii'on, increase in the capacity of the
furnace, reduction in iron ore waste (dust), and control over silicon range. There is also,
incidentally, a saving in power.
STATES PROMINENT IN THE PIG IRON INDUSTRl.
In 1905 there were active blast furnaces in twenty States. Pennsylvania is still far in
advance of the other States as a producer of pig iron. Ohio. Illinois and Alabama follow,
in the order named. All but three of the States which had more than two blast furnace
establishments in 190.5 reported increases in pig iron production. Pennsylvania produced
one-half of the Bessemer pig iron, nearly three-fourths of the low-phosphorus, nearly
three-fourths of the basic, over one-fifth of the foundry, more than one-half of the forge,
over three-fifths of the spiegeleisen, all of the ferromanganese, nearly one-third of the
direct castings, and relatively small amounts of the remaining grades — malleable Bessemer,
white and mottled, and miscellaneous grades, and ferrosilicon.
STEEL WORKS AND ROLLING MILLS.
The number of active steel works and rolling mills for which separate reports were
received was 415, a decrease of 23 from the number in 1900. The capital invested in
these establishments was $709,130,646, an increase of 60.5 per cent, since 1900; the amount
invested in idle establishments was $21,247,646. The average number of wage-earners and
wages were, respectively, 207,562, a gain of 13.4 per cent., and ^122,491,993, a orain of
19.8 per cent. The cost of materials used was $441,204,432, and the value of products,
$673,965,026; the gain was 13 per cent. In both. The total tonnage of products was 18,216,-
639, an increase of 21.1 per cent., compared with an increase in the decade preceding of
103.6 per cent.
Pennsylvania continues to produce more than one-half of the cast steel and rolled ii-on
and steel products, its output constitutiiig 54 per cent, of the total value, compared with
55.7 per cent, in 1900. This State reports one-half of all employees and expenses per-
taining to the industry, and over one-half the capital. Its present share of the steel
making and rolling mill industry is even greater than its share in the blast furnace
branch, and exceeds by over $30.0(K),000 the total product of steel works and rolling mills
for the entire country in 1S90. Ohio ranks second, Illinois third, and New York fourth.

(From Census Bulletin Xo. 87.)
Census statistics of the manufacture of tobacco appeared first at the Census of 1810.
The classifications were ''American Cigars," "Spanish Cigars." and "Tohacco and Snuff.
No totals were presented for the entire country, but the returns for Pennsylvania gave a
total of 3.898,999 Spanish cigars, valued at .«2G.5.iO: 29,061.000 American cigars, valued at
$44 253, and 2,186.7.57 pounds of tobacco and snuff, having a value of $410,910. For
Virginia were returned 2,726,713 pounds of tobacco and snuff, of a value of $469,000. At
the Census of 1840, out of thirtv States and Territories the manufacture of tobacco was
reported for twenty-eight, the total value of products as shown in the recapitulation being
$5,819,568, of which Virginia reported $2,406,671.
GROWTH SINCE 1850.
The returns at the Census of 1850 were for "tobacconists." The value of products
■was reported as $13,4!)1,147, of which $5,1.57.652 was from Virginia; the number of estab-
li'^hments in the United States was 1.418; the capital. $5,008,295; the number of wage-
earners. 14,236, of which 1,975 were females; the cost of labor, $2,420,208, and of materials,
'^ The" enormous growth of the industry since 1850 is indicated by the Tact that the
value of products for the vear covered by the Census of 1905 was $331,117,681. the capital
employed being $.323,983,501. In the same year the industry expended $126,088,608 for
materials, $62,640,303 for wages, $8,800,434 for salaries, and $80,145,016 for miscellaneous
The 'value of products increased 25.6 per cent, for 1905, as compared with 1900; the
cost of materials, 35.8 per cent., and the amount paid in wages, 30.6 per cent. The
reported capital shows an increase of 190.5 per cent.
NUMBER OF WAGE-EARNERS.
The number of wage-earners employed in 1905 in this industry was 159,408. This
represents the average number employed during the year and includes 85,691 men, 66,.301
women, and 7,416 children under sixteen years of age. The proportion of women com-
prised in the total has greatly increased in recent years. In ISSO only 23.1 per cent, of
the total number of wage-earners in this industry were women. This proportion increased
to 29.8 per cent, in 1890, 37.2 per cent, in 1900, and 41.6 per cent, in 1905.
Of the reported aggregate value of products, cigars and cigarettes form 64.7 per
cent, and chewing and smoking tobacco and snuff 35.3 per cent. Of the total number
of wage-earners 85 per cent, were employed in the manufacture of cigars and cigarettes.
The number of establishments reported as engaged in the manufacture of cigars and
cigarettes was 16, .395, while the number reported for the other branch of the industry
was only 453. This striking difference is due in part to the fact that cigars and cigar-
ettes are 'to a considerable extent manufactured in small establishments, whereas chewing
and smoking tobacco and snuff is mostly produced in factories of considerable size. For
(the cigar and cigarette branch of the industry the average capital invested per establish-
ment was only $8,852. while for the other branch it was $413,043. A similar contrast
appears in the average number of wage-earners per establishment, the number being 8
for cigars and cigarettes ^nd 55 for chewing and smoking tobacco and snuff.
TOBACCO CONSUMED.
According to the reports of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, the total amount
of tobacco manufactured in 1904 was 448.511.583 pounds, the quantity used in the manu-
facture of cigars and cigarettes being 141,020.029 pounds, as compared with 307. 491. .5.54
pounds used for the production of chewing and smoking tobacco and snuff. As reported
bv the Census, the value of the raw materials — mostly tobacco— used in the manufacture
of cigars and cigarettes ($69,291,011) was more than twice the value of that consumed in
for cigars and cigarettes and 55 for chewing and smoking tobacco and snuff.
PRODUCTION OF CIGARS AND CIGARETTES.
According to figures derived from the reports of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue,
the number of cigars manufactured in the calendar year 1904 was 7,376.669.742, and the
number of cigarettes was 3,433,9<i3,422. As compared with the year 1900. this shows an
increase of 19.4 per cent, in the manufacture of cigars and nf 5.4 per cent, in the manu-
facture of cigarettes. The Census Bulletin calls attention to the fact that the n_umber
of cigars and cigarettes consumed increased 27.5 per cent, between 1900 and 1905, and
that between 1S69 and 1905 the consumption of cigars increased nearly sevenfold, while
the population in the same period increased only a little over twofold.
PRINCIPAL, PRODI^CING STATES.
The manufacture of cigars and cigarettes is one of the few factory industries that
are represented in every State and Territory. The production ranges in value from
.$'.•.310 (reported for the State of Mississippi) to $60,623,617. reported for New York. The
production in New York represents in value 28.3 per cent, of the total production (214,-
3.50.051) of the United States. There were four other States for which the reported value
of products exceeded $10.000.("KX>. These States, with the value of product, were as fol-
lows: Pennsylvania, $.39,079,122; Florida. $10,764,276; Ohio. $13.241.2.30. and Illinois. $11.-
66!). 485. As compared with the Census of lOOO a very noteworthy increase in the value
i->r product is shown for the State of New Jersev, in which the production increased from
$2,647,595 for 1900 to $8..331,611 in 1905. This increase was due chiefly to the establish-
ment of a number of large cigar factories, most of which were owned by one corporation.
As a result. New Jersey advanced from the twelfth place in 19(K) to the sixth at the
Census of 1905.
The production of chewing and smoking tobacco and snuff is confined to a smaller
-Tiumber of States than that of cigars and cigarettes. The total production reported for
the United Stales is $116,V67,6U0.

EXPORTS OF COTTON FROM THE UNITED STATES.
(From Census Bulletin No. 00.)
The exports of domestic cotton from the United States during the year ending August
?1, 1907, amounted to 9,0o6,434 bales of 500 pounds each. Of this amount 3,966,119, or 44
per cent., went to the United Kingdom; 2,315,651, or 26 per cent., to Germany, and 1,006,633,
or 11 per cent., to France. During the twenty-six years from 1880 to 1906 the exports to
the United Kingdom increased 45 per cent.; those to Germany nearly 4tX) per cent., and
those to France 82 per cent. The exports to Italy increased from 75,145 bales in ISSO to
507,916 bales in 1906, or nearly sevenfold. Exports to Japan are noteworthy because of the
remarkable variations in the quantities for the different years, as well as for the growth
in these exports since 1890, which is the first year for which they are presented in the
report. In 1906 they amounted to 262,283 bales, while for 1904 they were 336,575 bales.
Ihe exports to Russia decreased, a fact which may be partially explained by the increased
produocion of cotton in Russian territory, by the importation of Persian cotton, and by the
recent unsettled conditions in that country.
Exports of sea-island cotton formed about one-third of the 57,550 bales reported by the
ginners as produced in 1900. In 1905 about 36 per cent, of the sea-island crop was exported.
The United Kingdom takes about three-fourths of the amount exported, while most of the
remainder goes to France.
EXPORTS OF COTTON MANUFACTURES.
The total value of exports of cotton goods of domestic manufacture was $32..S05,412, of
which $11,496,734, or 36 per cent., was for unbleached cloths; .$2,240,431, or 7 per cent., for
bleached cloths, and .$7,502,082, or 23 per cent., for dyed, colored, or printed cloths. Of
the total value of cotton manufactures exported $4,425,055, or 14 per cent., went to Europe;
$14,821,264, or 46 per cent., to North and South America; $12,325,874, or 38 per cent., to
Asia, and the remainder to Africa. The export of American yarns to the Far East is
msignificant, as that market is controlled by British India and Japan.
IMPORTS OP COTTON MANUFACTURES.
Imports of cotton manufactures during the year ending June 30, 1907, were valued at
$73,704,636, more than one-half of which consisted of laces and embroideries. Switzerland
leads in the export of laces to this country with $13,979,808, or about one-third of the
total. France was second with $12,484,906. Of the bleached, dyed, or printed cloths im-
ported 79 per cent, came from the United Kingdom, which country also supplied more than
three-fourths of the thread, yarn, and warps imported. Practically all of the imports of
hosiery and knit goods, amounting in value to $8,671,848, came from Germany.
THE UNITED STATES SUPPLIES TWO-THIRDS OF THE COTTON.
The number of cotton spindles in the world, as shown by the report, is 123,332,971. As
nearly as it can be determined, the amount of cotton consumed was 19.493,441 bales, a
weekly consumption of 374.874 bales. This is not, however, the total consumption for the
world, as in a number of Eastern countries and in South and Central America large quan-
tities of cotton are grown and consumed which do not enter into commercial channels, and
therefore cannot be estimated with any certainty. The figures indicate, however, that the
United States furnished two-thirds of the supply of the world.

WOOL MANUFACTURES.
(From Census Bulletin No. 74.)
The period intervening between the censuses of 1900 and IDO.! was an unusually pros-
perous season for the industries which use wool as chief raw material, namely: Woollen
goods, worsted goods, carpets and rugs, other than rag; felt goods, and wool hats. The
1,213 establishments engaged in wool manufacture in 1905 were distributed thus: Woollen
goods, 792; worsted goods, 226; carpets and rugs, V.Vd; felt goods, 39. and wool hats. 1<.
The total capital invested was $370,SG1,G91. There was an increase in every industry except
wool hat manufacture, where there was a decrease of 19.7 per cent. The average number
of wage-earners in the several industries was 179,976. Materials used in the wool manu-
facture cost $242,561,090.
The total value of products, $380,934,003, is made up of the output of woollen mills,
$142,196,658; of worsted goods factories, '$165,745,052; of carpet and rug factories, $61,586,433;
of felt goods factories. $8,948,594, and of wool hat factories, $2,457,266.
Massachusetts held first rank in the total value of products of all branches, and iti
value of worsted goods and woollen goods; Pennsylvania was first in the manufacture of
carpets and rugs, and New York led in the manufacture of felt goods and wool hats. The
cities of Philadelphia, Pa.; Lawrence, Mass., and Providence, R. I., are still the leading
centres of wool manufacture.
In 1905 the worsted manufacture exceeded that of woollen goods in capital, cost of
materials, and value of products. An indication of the change of fashion from woollen to
worsted goods is the decrease in woollen yarn purchased from 38.903,178 pounds in 1900^to
38,141,488 pounds in 1905, coincident with an increase in worsted yarn from 34,37'i,(3G
pounds in 1900 to 43,403,705 in 1905. The quantity of scoured wool consumed in the woollen
manufacture was 282,104.618 pounds, and the total quantity of yarns purchased was
203,079.791 pounds, costing $59.904,6.^7. Cotton, either alone or mixed with wool, has
largely supplanted wool as the material of a great number of fabrics. There are Important
increases in the silk yarn used and in the yarn of jute, ramie, and other vegetable fibres.
The principal machinery was 5,968 cards, 1,549 combing machines, 4,021,098 spindles,
and 77,985 looms.

388 The Financial Stringency of 1907,
^"^t jFmantial -Strmfitncg of 1907»
The Secretary of the Treasury in his annual report of December 2, 1907, made the fol-
lowing references to the action of the United States Government in connection with the
financial disturbances which occurred in the Autumn of 1907:
Section 4 of the act approved March 4, 1907, increased from $3,000,000 to $9,000,000 per
month the amount of lawful money which might be deposited with the Treasurer of the
United States for the retirement of the circulating notes of national banks.
Owing to the currency stringency which has existed for the past two months, the
national banks have taken out circulation in large amounts (from October 1 to November 20,
$38,540,820). It is not difficult to foresee that at a period not very remote these banks v%-in
not only be in a position to retire a large amount of this circulation, but should be en-
couraged to do so. It is therefore recommended and urged that the act referred to be
further amended, and limitation upon such retirement of circulation be left within the
discretion of the Secretary of the Treasury.
BOND TRANSACTIONS.
The 4 per cent, funded loan of 1907. by its term?;, was redeemable at the pleasure of
the United States after July 1. 1907. The amount outstanding March 1, 1907, was $111,-
69(3,300, and small amounts of the bonds were being presented from day to day for sale at
par. with interest to April 1. As it was advisable, owing to the demand for money In all
sections of the country, to increase the disbursements from the Treasury, the owners of
the 4 per cent, bonds were invited by a circular published March 14 to surrender their
bonds for redemption with intei-est to July 1 to an amount not exceeding $25,000,000. Under
this circular there were redeemed, between the date of this issue and June 24. registered
and coupon bonds to the amount of $25,088,750. Meanwhile, the disposal of the remainder
of the loan was considered.
The department had the option of three methods: First, its redemption; second, its
continuance at a lower rate of interest at the pleasure of the United States; third, the
refunding under authority of the act of March 14, 1900, into 2 per cent, consols of 1930 of
all or any part of it.
The redemption of the loan would take from the Treasury about .$86,000,000, a loss
which seemed to be inadvisable in view of the uncertainty then existing as to future finan-
cial conditions. Its continuance at a lower rate of interest, while possessing some ad-
vantages, was, on the whole, uncertain as to its operation and effect. So it was decided
to refund a part of the loan, leaving outstanding an amount which could easily be redeemed
in July without disturbing financial conditions.
EMERGENCY MEASURES.
During the Summer the gradual increasing rate of interest charged for call money,
time money and discounts of commercial bills indicated a progressive diminution in the
amount of available cash. Accordingly, it was decided August 23, 1907, to make each week
substantial deposits in the different sections of the country, with the particular object of
facilitating the Fall movement of the crops, - These distributions were continued weekly
until rhe aggregate amount of $26,000,000 had been so distributed. Notwithstanding this
measurp, there was a constantly increasing stringency in the monetary centres, which
culminated in the forced suspensions of several important institutions.
Prior to this crisis the shipments of currency to the West by Eastern banks for crop-
moving purposes had been insignificant. There had been no important shipments of gold
abroad, so the monetaiy stringency seemed to be due. in lai-ge measure, to the hoarding of
funds by owners thereof who had become apprehensive of their financial safety. As the
crisis approached the department adopted the strongest measures to give material assistance.
Within four days there was transferred from the Treasury to the banks the sum of
$35,000,000, the security received therefor being such State, municipal and railroad securities
as are accepta'ble under the laws of the States of New York. Massachusetts, Connecticut and
New Jersey as investments bv savings banks. On November 11 there were on deposit in
national bank depositaries: To the credit of the United States. $212,958,811.64; to the
credit of disbursing officers. $13,877,425,40; total, $226,836,237.04. This sum was distributed
among national banks in every State and Territory of the Union.
THE PANIC AND AFTER,
These deposits, and other Treasury operations, in connection with the associated efforts
of prominent financiers and other business men. who aided first by giving important relief
to certain embarrassed institutions and afterward by providing for the imports of gold, of
which up to November 15 there had been engaged more than $60,000,000, operated to prevent
a dangerous panic. The Secretary of the Treasury has made such adju.stment of deposits
between the \ arious cities and sections as was possible in such a time of financial stress,
and through tho <o-op<nation of Eastern bankers has sprurod the transfer, through the usual
rommercial channels, of large sums of money to the South, the West, the Northwest, and
the Pacific Coast. , ^ ^,. * a
Ther"^ -^v.is. ho^^ e^ er. great finanrial distress in many sections or the country ana
a remarkable scarcity of currency. The Clearing-Houses in nearly all the prominent cities
of the United States felt obliged to adopt such measures of relief as they found available.
The remarkably sound and prosperous condition of the country would seem to warrant the
belief that the strain will leave behind no extensive business depression.

392_ Sprecut of the lAgnoi' Prokibition Movement.
c^4JccaK of tijc aiquor i^cofjiditton Jllotjrmtut
The year i;J07 witnessed a tremendous advance In the Unltod States in the movement
to prahiblt the sale of Intoxicating liquoi"s. It was practically the Quly political issue
in the South.
There are now six prohibition States-^ilaine, Georgia, North Dakota, Kansas,
Oklahoma and Alabama. In eight States and Territories — Montana, Idaho, Wyoming,
Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New iJexico— saloons are licensed with virtually nj
lestrictions, altliough sonie of these have recently passed Sunday closing laws. In all th3
other States there is some form of local option. In nearly all these local option States thj
"dry" territory has been steadily inci^^asing in the last ten years. In the South as a whole
it has doubled; in Texas it has tripled; in Kentucky it has spread so widely that the
prediction is confidently made that within three years the State will take its place beside
Georgia and Alabama in the prohibition column. To-dav 97 out of the 119 counties of
Kentucky are wholly --dry," and of the remainder only four are wholly **wet." Governor
AVillson was elected in November on a prohibition platform. This seems an extraordinary
condition for Kentucky, the home of blue-grass whislsey, the State in which $100,000,000 is
invested in distilleries.
In Tennessee liquor can be had publicly only in the cities of Memphis, Nashville, and
Chattanooga.
Georgia becomes a prohibition State on January 1, 1908, and the law is so drastic that
wine cannot be used at communion services in churches, nor can druggists sell any form
of liquor except pure alcohol.
Alabama by act of the Legislature in November, 1907, became a prohibition State.
In Mississippi sixty-eight out of seventy-five counties are already dry, and a State
prohibition campaign is being waged V\'ith every prospect of success.
Florida has thirty-four of its forty-seven counties dry, and Governor Broward is
actively leading a campaign for State prohibition.
South Carolina recently repealed its famous dispensary law and substituted local option
by counties. A movement for State prohibition ha.s been started, and seventeen out of forty-
one counties have voted for no saloons.
North Carolina has no saloons in 95 per cent, of its territory, and the prohibition cam-
paign is active under the lead of Governor Glenn.
Virginia has seventy-two dry counties out of 118.
West Virginia has thirty out of fifty-five, and Governor Dawson is actively fighting
the liquor traffic.
Fourteen of Maryland's twenty-three counties are dry.
In Delaware the election in November, 1907, resulted In two of the three counties
going dry.
Louisiana has eighteen dry parishes and parts of others are also dry, and it Is illegal to
solicit orders for liquor in any of the dry districts.
Arkansas has sixty out of se\'enty-five counties dry and many dry towns in the others.
Missouri's local option lav/ has made forty-four of her 115 counties abolish saloons.
Sunday closing even in St. Louis is rigorously enforced.
Texas is one of the most notable examples of the revolution, for 147 counties are
absolutely dry, fifty- three are partly dry and only forty-seven are totally wet. The sale of
liquor on dining-cars is forbidden, and a traveller on a train may not even drink from
his own flask.
Oklahoma has just adopted a constitution that forbids the sale of liquor.
Kansas is a prohibition State, and the last of the "speak easy" saloons has just been
suppressed by popular opinion.
Nebraska has local option by villages and cities; 400 are dry, 600 wet.
South Dakota is about one-quarter dry.
North Dakota has been so prohibition State so long that in some of the counties there
are no jails.
Minnesota has 123 dry towns and rigid Sunday closing.
Iowa, once a prohibition State, has sixty-five out of ninety^iine counties dry and eleven
other counties have only one saloon each.
W^iscon^in has 650 dry towns.
Miohigan, under a county option law, has only one dry county.
A prohibition wave is roiling through Illinois, and more than 3,000,000 people are in the
dry district. . .
Six hundred and eighty of Indiana's 1,016 townshi-ps are di-y. a<nd the prohibition advo-
cates expect to increase the license fee to $1,000.
In Ohio 1,140 out of 1,376 townships are dry and 60 per cent, of the municipalities.
Pennsylvania seems little affected by the temperance wave, but there is one dry county.
New jersey has no local option, but has recently begun a vigorous closing of saloons on
Sundays.
New York has township option, under which 602 towns in the State have no saloons.
Only twenty-four towns in Vermont allow liquor to be sold.
New Hampshire is nominally a i>rohibition State, but only 62 per cent, of the population
lives in really dry territory.
Massachusetts has 250 dry and 100 wet towns.
Connecticut has ninety-six dry towns out of 176, and every saloon must be run by its
actual owner.
.4bout half of Rhode Island is dry.
In Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona the Anti-Saloon League has started a campaign
that has already resulted in the passage of a local option law in the first-named State.
In Montana, Idaho, Wvomlng. and Utah, although the saloons run about as they like,
they are besrinning ro r>ftlize that sentiment is changing. The Mormon Church is fighting
them, and the prohibition people have already persuaded Idaho to adopt a Sunday clos-
ing law.
On the Pacific Slope, California has four dry of>unties and much dry territory !n the
other?!, while in Oregon twelve counties are dry »nd 170 municipalities in the 21 wet
counties are- also dry. Washington has fifty dry to\<Ti>, -
The Canning and Preserving Industry, 893
(From Censvis Bulletin No. Gl.)
Of the total value of products of the canning and preserving industry for the United States,
amounting to $108,505,471 in 1905, the largest item was canned vegetables, the value of
which was $45,2(52.148, or 41.7 per cent, of the total. Canned and dried fruits were next,
with a value of $27,308. 820. The value of fish amounted to $25,547,075, of which canned
fish amounted to $1(5, '18:^,779, smoked fish to $2,3(52,740, and salted fish to $0,200,556. The
value of oysters canned was $3,799,412. , . , • iv.
The following is a summary statement of the canning and preserving mdustry in tho
United States in ly05^ Number of establishments, 2,703; capital. $70,082.07C.; number of
salaried officials, clerics etc., 3,024; salaries, $3,236,138; wage-earners, average number,
50,238; total wages, $14,218,170; miscellaneous expenses, $8,500,984; cost of materials used,
S70,058.0S0; value of products. $108,505,471. , , ^ . ^^
Although some pctablishments. at which fruits and vegetables are packed during the
Summer and oysters during the Winter, are running the greater part of the year the strict
fruit and vegetable canning establishments are operated only during a part of the year.
The time in operation varies according to the locality and the kind of goods packed. \\ hile
some plants are able to commence tho canning of early peas and small fruits in the latter
part of Mav, and others continue the packing of apples into December, the busy season lor
most comes during the months of July. August, September and October,^ September being
the month of greatest activity. A comparatively small number of operatives are also em-
ployed during the Winter months in labelling, wrapping and packing— preparing the product
for shipping— and in many factories where they manufacture their own cans the can-
makers are employed throughout the year. , , ,, . ■ ■> ,. ^^.,„,
The canning of vegetables is the most important branch of the canning industrj , toi m-
ing 3<5.1 per cent, of the total value of products in 1900, and 41.7 per cent, in IJO.k In
the value of products for this part of the industry Maryland ranked first and New \orK
second, both in 1900 and 1905. Indiana was fourth in 1900 and third inlOO.j; Illinois j\ as
sixth in li)00 and fourth in 1905. and California dropped from third in 190() to eighth m IJOo.
The climatic conditions in Southern California have made the State famous for tne
fine quality of its fruits. The natural outcome has been to give this State firs-t rank m tne
value of both canned and dried fruits produced. In 1900 California produced t»4. 9 per cent
of the total value of canned and 01.2 per cent, of the total value of fl'-'^d fruits leported
in the United States. In 1905, 59.9 per cent, of the total value of ^f^^^'^^^^'lV/^^^f^Vl. ied
country was reported from this State, v.^mle its percentage of the tota ^'^'"^ ^t diiea
fruits was increased to SS.l per cent, of the total for the country. Maryland held second
rank in the value of fruit canned, and New York ranked third m value of canned and
second in value of dried fruits. ^ ^ ^ ,•„ iQn=: r.,.r./i,ir-ino-
Mississippi led all the other States in value of oysters canned in 190o, producing
$1 502 497. The other three leading States, ranked according to value of products, were.
South 'Carolina, $508,239; Louisiana, $509,325; Georgia, $256,750.

HOMICIDE IN THE UNITED STATES.
The statistics of the United States Census for 1000 had not been pablished by the
Census Office when THE WORUD ALMANAC for 1908 was ready for the press. The
special report of the Census Office is in course of preparation. The latest official statistics,
therefoi-e, are for 1890.
The census bulletin presenting statistics of homicide in the United States in 1890 was
prepared by Frederick H. Wines, special agent on pauperism and crime. The following is
the summing up of the results of his investigations:
Of !s2,329 prisoners in the United States June 1, 1890, the number charged with homicide
was 7,3S6, or s.97 per cent.
Omitting 35 who were_ charged with double crimes, 6,958 of thorn (or 94.65 per cent.)
were men, and 393 (or 5.3o per cent.) were women.
As to color, 4,425 were white, 2.739 negroes, 94 Chinese, 1 Japanese, and 92 Indians.
As to the nativity of the 4.425 whites, 3,157 v/ere boim in the United Slates, 1,213 were
foreign born, and the birthplace of 55 is unknown.
The number employed at the time of their arrest was 5,659; unemployed, 1,225; un-
known, 467.

l^risoners in the United States.. 397
The Censiiis Office published in 1007 a special report on prisoners and juvenile delin-
quents in Institutions in the United States. The enumerations are for l'JO-1, when the
census was taken. The following is a summary from the report;
The number of institutions in the United States June 30, 1904, was 1,337, classified
as follows; United States civil i)risous, 4; State prisons and State and County penlt.-n-
tiaries, t»7; reformatories for adults, 14; County jails and worlchouses, 1,181; municipal
prisons and workhouses, 71.
ISxclusive of the juvenile delinquents in special institutions for that class, and exclusive
of persons imprisoned for the non-payment of fines, 81,772 sane persons at least five yeais
of age were sei-ving sentences in civil prisons on June 30, 1004. Out of every million
persons in the estimated population of that date 1,006 were prisoners.
Possibly the greater leniency in the present treatment of the criminal affects the
female offenders more than the male, for the proportion of women among prisoners has
constantly decreased. In 1880 women formed 8.5 per cent, of the prisoners; in 1800, 7.8
per cent.; and in 1894, 5.5 per cent. The decrease between 1800 and 1004 is common to
all sections of the country.
Colored i>ersons were more common among the prisoners on June 30, 1904, than they
were on June 1, 1890. In 1904 the percentage of colored was 32.0, while in 1800 it was
30.4. This increase in the proportion of colored prisoners is shown by all the geographic
divisions of the country except the South Atlantic and the Western. It was particularly
notable in the North Central States, where 14.2 per cent, of the prisoners enumex'ated in
1800 were colored as contrasted with 20.5 per cent, in 1904.
MINOR OFFENCES MOST COMMON.
In the country as a whole 34,753 persons were sentenced for drunkenness, 28,339 for
vagrancy, and 17,264 for disorderly conduct. In other v/ords, more than one-half of the
total number of prisoners committed during the year were sentenced for some one of these
three closely allied offences. No less than 25,098 prisoners (16.8 per cent, of the total
number) were sentenced for larceny; 10.877 (7.3 per cent.) for assaults, and 7,161 (4.8 per
cent.) for burglary. Of the remaining offences homicide showed the largest number— 2,444,
or 1.6 per cent, of the total.
SHORT SENTENCES IMPOSED.
Ririoe such a large proportion of the total number of prisoners had been committed for
nnnor offences, it naturally follows that a large proportion were committed for short
terms. In corainental United States 42,755. or 28.6 per cent, of the total number, were
stntenc-ed to imprisonment for less than thirty days, and 97,759, or 65.4 per cent., for less
than four months. The proportion of short sentences varies widely in different States, but
tliJs variation does not stand in as close relation to the proportion of minor offenders a9
might be expected. The figures, in fact, indicate wide divergences between different States
in the length of sentence imposed for similar offences,
DEATH SENTENCES.
Of the 106 persons committed to prison under death sentence 99 had been convicted
of homicide, 4 of assaults, 2 of rape, and 1 of a double crime, murder being one of them.
Two women paid the death penalty for homicide.
Life sentences were imposed upon 040 prisoners, of whom 586 were convicted of homi-
cide, 28 of rape, 12 of burglary, 4 of robbery, 3 of larcenj', 2 of arson, 1 of assault, 1 of
the crime against nature, 1 of perjury, 1 of an unclassified crime against property, and 1
of a crime not stated. Twenty women were committed during 1904 on a life sentence.
CRIMINALITY OP COLORED.
Among the 149,691 prisoners committed during 1904, 125,093 were white and 24,598 col-
ored, of whom 186 were Mongolians and 714 Indians. In other words^ 16.4 per c nt. of the
total number of prisoners committed during the year were colored. Of the genernl popula-
tion in 1900 the colored formed only 12.1 per cent. Since it cannot be presumed that the
proportion of colored in the population increased materially between 1900 and 1904, it is
evident that the colored contributed to the prison class in excess of their representation in
the general population. This condition is not "^confined to any one section of the country,
for the figures show that it obtained in every State and Territory, except North Dakota
and Arizona, where the colored population is composed chiefly of Indians.
The colored, moreover, formed a larger percentage of the prisoners convicted of the
more .serious crimes than they did of those who had been sentenced for the lesser offences.
They foi^med 31.5 per cent, of the major offenders and only 13 per cent, of the minor.
CRIMINALITY OF FOREIGN BORN.
Of the white prisoners of known nativity 35,093, or 28.8 per cent., were foreign born.
The figures for the separate nationalities of foreign born show that persons born in
Austria, England, and Wales, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, and Scotland formed a larger pro-
portion of the foreign born prisoners committed during 1904 than of the total foreign
born population In 1900. This was not true of the persons born In Canada, Denmark,,
France, Germany, Hungai-y, Norway, Poland, Russia, Sweden, and Switzerland. The last'
mentioned group of countries furnished 58.8 per cent, of the foreign born population of 1900,
but only 36.5 per cent, of the foreign born prisoners committed during 1904, while the
first mentioned group included 35.3 per .cent, of the population and 59.3 per cent, of the
prisoners.

Inclusive, to commemorate the progressof tlie work on the Panama CaiinL It was orig-inally purposed
to hold this Exposition in 1908, but the time was last year postponed to 1910. wifJi the concurrence
of Congress. The liead of the Exposition project is Thomas J. L. Brown, President of the Florida
Mid-Winter Fair Association, Tampa, Florida.
Congress on June 30, 190G, adopted the following joint resolutions :
"Whereas, it is fitting that the commencement of the work on the Panama Canal should be cele-
brated in asuitable manner to the end that the importance of this great isthmian waterway may be
accentuated and tlie sentiment in favor of its early completion fostered and kept alive; and
"Whereas, the City of Tampa, in the State of Florida, by reason of its being further to the
southward and nearer to said canal than any other citj' in tlie countrj', having a deep and commodious
harbor, reached by ample railroad facilities, as also on account of its salubrious climate and the spirit
of American progress among its citizens, manifest in the rapid growth and development of thocitj'
and her commerce, atfords a suitable place for such an Exhibition ; and
"Whereas, it has been determined to hold such an ICxposiiion at Tampa, Florida, during the
months of January, Februarj', Marcli, April and May, A. D. 1908, and
"Whereas, his Excellencj- jSTapolecni B. Browimi. Gf)VPrnor of tlie State of Florida, did on
DecetnberSO, 1905. issue his proclamation cnlling an Isilimian Exposition lo be held in the City of
Tampa, commencing in tliemoiilhof January, A. D. 1908. for the purpose afore.said, and inviting the
Covernorsof theseveriil States comnrising tlie United states of America, as well as the Governors of
the Territories of the United States, to secure tlie co-oi)eration of their .%tate Legislatures in aid of
said Exposition by participating therein ^nd .sending exhibits of their resources to said Exposition;
therefore be it
" Resolved, that the President be, and he is hereby, requested to hold a naval review, in Tampa
Bay at such time during the progress of said Exi>osition as he may deem best.
"Resolved further, that the President of the United States be, and he is hereby, requested to
cause to be made such display of the Army of the United States at said Exposition jis he may deem
advisable.
" Resolved further, that nothing contained in this concurrent resolution shall be construedas
committing the United States to any obligation hereafter to appropriate money for expenses or
liabilities of any kind or character made or incurred ijy any one for the entertainmentof the guests of
such Exposition, or in connection with such celebration and Exhibition. ' '
SJaltimtire i2,vpti.?sitt£ju \\\ 1914.
It is proposed to hold an International Exposition on the v.:ater front at Bahimore in
1914, that being the one hundredth anniversary of both the climax of the war of 1812 and
the birth of the "Star Spangled Banner." The idea originated with the Baltimore
"American," in which the national song- was first published from Francis Barton Key's
manuscript and received the general approval of citizens. The City Council has taken
steps toward an organization and the Maryland State authorities have promised co-opei-ation.
^^jc Japanese tJCatfotial IHxpo.^ftion of 1912.
The follov/ing statement has been prermred for THE WORLD AEMAXAC by the
Japanese Embassy at WasJiington:
The Exposition which will be held iti 1012 in Tokio is a national exposition, and is
to be maintained and administered by the Imperial Government of Japan. While it is a
national exposition, the participation of the governments and peoples of foreign countries
is cordially invited and the Japanese Government will make' the plan on such a scale
as not only to render it the largest exposition ever held in Japan, but give it a positively
international character. This has been communicated to several countries, and many of
them, appreciating the desire of the Japanese Gbvernment, have already shown their
readiness to render their assistance. '
It is expected that the national appropriation alone in connection with the projected
exposition will amount to about $."3,000,000. Added to this, the local government and
municipality of Toklo, as well as the various local governments throughout the Empire
of Japan and the Government of Formosa, and so forth, v.ill make appropriations in their
respective budgets iO that the total governmental and municipal appropriation covering
the direct expenditures of the exposition will aggregate at least more than $10,000,000.
The grounds of the exposition will occupy about 2.'30 acres of land, of which ahout
thirty acres will be covered by buildings already decided upon. Special buildings will be
set apar' for exhibits representative of arts and science, including those relating to educa-
tion and also of machineries and electrical appliances.
The period during which the exposition is to be held is determined tn be from April
1 to October .31, so as to include both the cherrj' blossom and the chrysanthemum
seasons, of which so much has been written by writers on Japan, and talked of by foreign
visitors who have been there.
From these facts it can be easily seen that the Japanese Government desires to offer
an unexcelled opportunity for forei.gners to take a trip to Japan and to be entertained
with attractions and amusements which even the natives may not often witness except
on such an occasion.
Being a national exposition, the primary object of the enterprise is to widen Vn^
knowledge of tlit- Japanese pc-opi.e a^ regard.s the industrial devHonment attaineil within
their own country as well as in^ the whole world; but. nevertheless, no. better oppor-
tunity will be I'JLind in the near future tiian this exposition for one who entertains the
desire to know the Japanese people better and to study deeper t'ne natural and in<Uistrial
resources of the country, no less than the. present state of civilization and industrial
achievement of her people.
400 Alaska- Yukon- Pacific Ej'posiiion of 1909,
a^lasfea^Yuifeou^J^acilic 3S.vposiftfon oC 1909*
From Jun^e 1 to October 15, 1909, there will be held at Seattle, Wash., an international
exposition, the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition.
The primary purpose of the Exposition, the creation of which is well under way, is to
exploit the resources and potentialities of the Alaska and Yukon territories in the United
States and the Dominion of Canada and to make known and foster the vast importance of
the trade of the Pacific Ocean and of the countries bordering thereon. In addition it will
demonstrate the marvellous progress of Western America.
It will be the aim of the Exposition to correct the common impression that Alaska and
Yukon are nothing but countries of cold and gold and to place the Territories in their true
light before the eyes of the world. Another object of tne Exposition is to Increase the
trade of the nations that are lapped by its waters.
Tlie Exposition will represent an expenditure of approximately ,$10,000,000 v/hen the
gates are opened on June 1. I'JO'.). It will occupy 2.'0 acres of the campus of the University
of Washington, adjoining one of the many beautiful residence districts of Seattle, on the
gentle slopes and terraces overlooking Puget Sound. Lake Washington and Lake Union.
The lakes are natural, fresh water bodies, Washington having an area of SSVo square miles
and Union an area of 1 1-H square miles. They are separated froin the I'uget Sound by the
land upon which Seattle stands and will, by the time the Exposition opens, be connected
with the salt water by a ship canal, now under construction. The unsurpassed stretches of
water front on both lakes aiford great opportunities for aquatic features, the like of which
no other exposition ever possessed.
The grounds are twenty ininutes' ride by electric car from the business centre of
Seattle and are scenically one of the finest exposition sites ever laid out. The sn(iw-clad
Olj'mpic and Cascades ranges of mountains are in plain view from all points of the grounds.
Mount Rainier, the highest peak in the United States proper, rises to a height of 14,52G feet,
and Mount Baker, another formidable peak of the Cascades, towers 11,000 feet.
Twelve large exhibit buildings will form the nucleus of the Exposition. Around these
will cluster the State. Territorial and concessions buildings, foreign pavilions, the Adminis-
tration group and smaller psuedo exhibit structures.
The main exhibit buildings Mill be: (It United States Government. (2) Alaska, (.'>)
Yukon. (4) Manufactures. Liberal Arts and Education, (.~)i Agriculture, Horticulture and
Irrigation. (G) Machinery, (7) Forestry, (S) Fine Arts, (t)) P^isheries, (10) Mines, (11) Hawaii,
(12) Philippines.
On June 1, 1007. just two years prior to opening day, before a crowd of l."),000 persons,
the first spadeful of earth was turned and work begun on the Exposition. The exercises
which wei-e held in the natural amphitheatre and participated in by governors, mayors and
other prominent people of the Pacific Coast, were preceded by a large military parade in the
city. The day, which was a holiday in Seattle, was made a memorable one in the history
of "the Pacific Northwest. Hon. John Barrett, director of the International Bureau of
American Republics, represented President Roosevelt.
Work on the grounds since then has progressed rapidly. All of the grading has been
finished, and half a dozen buildings are under construction. The Administrr>t!on Building,
the first to be completed, has been occupied by the Exposition offices for many months.
The United States Government will participate on a large scale. The Senate passed a
bill at the last session of the Fifty-ninth Congress appropriating $700,000 for the representa-
tion of Alaska, Hawaii and the Philippines. l)ut as the session was short the measure did
not get through the House. Assurance has been given the manageir.rnt that at the first
session of the Sixtieth Congress a bill will be pas.sed appropriating $l,17i5.O00 for the par-
ticipation of the Government and its non-contiguous territories on the Pacific Ocean.
The people of Seattle financed the Exposition by raising ."^650.000. The capital stock
was placed at $."00,000. but when it was put on the market on the morning of Oct. 2. 1000,
it was oversubscribed by the sum of $150,000. The capital stock was increased to $800,000.
all of which will be sold in Seattle before the Exposition opens.
The States of the Union will participate on a large scale by the erection of buildings
and the installation of interesting and comprehensive displays.
The State of Washington has appropriated $1,000,000 for its representation at the Ex-
position. Oregon has made provision to spend $100,000, and will supplement this amount at
a later meeting of its State Legislature. California has appropriated $100,000. with the
assurance that an additional sum will be expended befoi-o the Exposiunn opens. Other
States that have made preliminary appropriations are: Pennsylvania, $75,000; Missouri,
$10,000; Utah. $2,000; Nebraska, $15,000.
Assurances have been given the Exposition management that the following States will
make provisions for participation at the next meeting of their L^gislaturor;: New York,
Massachusetts. Montana. Kentucky. Idaho. Nevada. Wi~cnnsin, Wyoming, Jtvansas, Illinois,
Minnesota. Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, North Dakota, and Colorado.

MOTOR AEROPLANES.
Since the first aeroplane types of flying machines, designed by Maxim and Lllienthal,
the work of inventors and scientists along the line of motor-driven, heavier-than-air
flying machines has aliown steady progress. \Vhilt; the gonerai type of machines of past
exueriments has been more or less adliered to, there have been niany improvements.
Motors have been made stronger and lighter, problems of rising and alighting saft^ly
solved, and additional scientific knowledge of aerial conditions has been gained. The
general and most popular design is that of the simple aeroplane, supported by air, through
which it is propelled by detaclied force. There have been many radical but experimental
departures from the aeroplane type, none of which, however, have sliown any great
degree of success. Among these radical types is the Helicopter, the production of Otto
Luyties, of Baltimore, Md. The design of the machine embraces several pairs of huge
wings and two or more upright revolving propellers, the latter operated by a 100-horse
power motor for the purpose of lifting the machine. The entire weight is l,Tt30^ pounds.
Achievements in the form of sustained flight, power to rise and descend without
mishap, and to guide the machine in a circular flight are confined to the Wright
Brothers, of Dayton, Ohio, and the Brothers \'oisin, whose aeroplane, constructed on
lines laid down by M. Octave Chanute, was driven in a successful flight on November
y and 11, rJ07. at Paris by IvI. Henry Farman. The aeroplane on the first attempt
rose slowly from the ground, and in one minute and fourteen seconds completed a circle.
Notice of the flight was not given to the French Aero Club, and Mr. Farman could not
be awarded the Deutsch-Archdeacon prize of $10,000 offered to the aviator who first
completes a circular kilometer in the air.
This flight, however, is still far behind the achievements of the Wright Brothers in
1905 at Dayton, Ohio, when in the presence of reputable witnesses one of the brothers
remained in the air 38 minutes and 3 seconds, making a circular flight of 24V-; miles.
Officials of the Aero Club of America, at the International Congress held in New York
on October 2S, 1907, admitted that in flights of man-carrying gasless machines the
Wright Brothers are far ahead of all competitors. What the Wright Brothers have
accomplished in the last two years, or since their 24-mile flight, is only problematic.tl.
It is conceded that they have made still further progi-ess, and it is not unlikely that
before the elapse of another year prolonged flights of motor-driven aeroplanes may be
witnessed. The Wright Brothers have established one curious point — that a really
successful flying machine will develop speed in excess of anticipations based on the
motor's efficiencj'.
Santos-Dumont, in his Helicopter, made the first public demonstration of man-flight
without gas support, travelling about 300 yards. His efforts were eclipsed by Mr. Farman
in a successful flight on October 26, 1907, near Paris, when he drove his aeroplane nearly
half a mile.
Although not a matter of authentic record, it is reported that M. Esnault Pelterie, in
a flying machine described as half automobile and half aeroplane, succeeded in making
a series of flights near Paris, turning in the air. rising and descending at will. The
machine resembles a butterfly, with the wings controlled by means of levers.
DIRIGIBLE BALLOONS.
Since aerial navigation was first contemplated no year has recorded such progress
hi dirigible airships at that of 1007. It may be called the year in which the availability
of sufficiently light and powerful motors first enabled experimenters to realize the chief
dreams of aerial flight. The airship of the general type, first controlled in flight by
Santos-Dumont, has entered definitely into the military establishments of the great
Powers. It has been adopted by France, Germany, and England, and an aerial bureau
is being contemplated by the United States Government. The three chief requirements
of the airship — speed, endurance, and control — have been attained in a measure sufficient
to make them of use in military operations.
In the military airship is foreseen the possibility of being able to pass over an
enemy's country without effective opposition from its defenders. It will no longer be
possible to maintain a position with troops disposed secretly. It will not be possible
in the campaigns of the future to move a regiment by day or night as long as the air
is infested with scouts. Ths Hague Conference, on August 19, passed a ruling forbidding
the dropping of projectiles upon hostile positions from balloons or aerial machines. It is
not known how far it may prove possible to employ airships in actual hostilities, but it
is almost certain that the next great war will witness their use.
The British militarv airship, Nulli Secnndus, the only one that has thus far been
put through a course of te.=;ts by the British, has not shown itself to be in the same
class with the German and French inventions. Its speed is about 21 miles an hour through
the air. a rate inferior to that of the airships of other armies. There is no record
showing that it remained in fiight at anv time for a period over an hour.
The German authorities, disquieted by the demonstrations of efficiency given by the
French, airships early in 1007 turned their attention to producing something their equal
or better. During the Summer thev tried out three distinct types.
The airships of the French Government, of which it now owns four, are all descend-
ants of the original Lebaudv airship, purchased from the Lebaudy Brothers in 190.".. The
Lebaudy TI. was the first airship owned bv the Government. Two others, the Patrie and
the Republique. were completed and tried out during 1007, and a fourth is now under
construction. These dirigibles are all built with a .gas bag about 200 feet long and 33
feet in diameter. The under side is lined with a flat, firm plate, which takes the place
of the suspended framework of other types of airships. It gives stiffness to the
elongated bag and prevents it from buckling in the wind. To this bottom piece Is
suspended the car. with a propeller on either side. The gas ba^ is equipped with side
and rear fins to insure stability, and with a rudder in the rear.
The Patrie wa= put through a series of flights lasting from June 27 until August 8. On
July 22 Prime Minister Clemenceau and Minister of War Picquart made an ascent aboard
Aei'onautlcs in 1007. 409

the Patrie and stayed in the air over an hour. This occurrence caused much comment
in other countries and did more than any single incident to malce observers outside of
France aware that her military airships had gone beyond the purely experimental stage.
On August S the Patrie made another trip which attracted notice. It was driven a distance
of 26 miles against a 15-mile wind from the shed to the Chateau of Rambouillet, the
residence at that time of the President of the French Republic, M. Fallieres. The airship
remained there for an hour and returned to the starting point, after a trip of 3V_> hours.
The German Government has experimented with dirigible balloons of three types.
The medium type corresponds more nearly to the approved French airship. The two
extreme types are the flexible, represented by the airship of Major von Parseval, and the
rigid, embodied in the production of Count von Zeppelin. The flexible airship aimed to
attain the form most easily portable from place to place on the earth. The rigid type
strove for size, lifting capacity and endurance. The Pstfseval type aimed to bf; a
campaign balloon that could be depended on for service wn the field. The Zeppelin
device, of enormous size, was built to be as steady as a ship in the air. "While the
Parseval was able to ascend and descend frequently, the Zeppelin was built to stay in
the air for davs at a time.
Von Zeppelin's airship, the largest of its kind ever built, was purchased by the>
German Government. It is the greatest attempt at an airship of shiplike size that has
ever been floated. If the accounts of its performances during the Summer of 1907 are
correct, it has gone somewhat faster and considerably farther than any of its rivals.
The balloon part is 420 feet long and 40 feet thick. This approaches more the shape of
a lead pencil. The bag has a polygonal instead of a perfectly round surface, and the
full thickness is carried almost to the ends.
The gas capacity of the Zeppelin dirigible, which is between 300,000 and 400,000 cubic
feet, enables it to lift several tons. Two motors form part of its equipment. There is
abundant buoyancy for all the fuel that need be stored for a thousand mile voyage.
The Zeppelin airship has attained a speed as high as 33 miles an hour, and has made
a trip of 220 miles and back. This gives to the Germans the record for long-distance
voyages by airship. Count von Zeppelin asserts that his dirigible balloon is capable of
going a week without landing or refilling. It has already stayed up for a period of
seven hours, much longer than that of any other airship.
In the development of dirigible airships in the United States aeronauts have not
attained the same degree of perfection that has rev/arded the efforts of experimenters
abroad. Stevens, Baldwin, Knabenshue, Beachey, and Thomas an9 others of lesser note
have confined themselves almost entirely to experiments with airships of small dimensions
and limited power. Many inventors have been sadly handicapped by lack of funds. At
the exhibition of the St. Louis Aero Club, held at St. Louis in October, 1007, a series of
highly successful contests were held, in which the stability and perfect control of airships
were conclusively demonstrated. A feature of the aerial contests was the flight of
Cromwell Dixon in his sky-cycle. The machine consisted of an oblong gas bag. from
which was suspended a frail framework supporting the operator, who propelled the
machine by means of pedals and a sprocket wheel geared to the propeller. The sky-
cycle was, equipped with a rudder in the rear, and could be guided successfully in a
moderate breeze. On June 20, 1007, Lincoln Beachey, in his dirigible airship, made a
successful ascension at Staten Island. The operator's seat was astride of a triangular
frame five feet below the cigar-shaped gas bag. The balloon was 52 feet long and 16 feet
in diameter, and contained 6,500 cubic feet of hydrogen gas.- The propeller was in front
and jlriven by a four-cylinder four-cycle gasoiene engine. A driving power of 400
revolutions a minute was obtained.
As a result of the steady improvement in dirigible balloons and the successful experi-
ments of the French and German governments, the United States War Department has
signified its intention of taking vip aerial navigation in connection with the future operations
of the Army and Navy. In December Brigadier-General James Allen, chief of the Si.gnal
Corps, announced that by the first of the year bids would be opened for the first two dirigi-
ble balloons of the United States War Department's Atlantic fleet. The specifications will
call for dirigibles of 25,000 cubic feet capacity, witih 30 or 40 h. p. engines, and capable of
carrying two persons with ballast and remaining in the air at least three hours. The air-
ships are to cost about $5,000 apiece. A representative of the Navy has arranged to hold a
series of tests at Fort George. New York, with the Thomas airship. This airship differs
from the common type in that its buoyancy is obtained by means of oxygen gas. Walter
Wellman abandoned his attemipt to reach the North Pole when, in September, his airship
during a trial flight encountered a storm and was wrecked on a glacier near Spitzbei-gen.
King Victor Emanuel announced in October that he would present a cup for an international
dirigible balloon competition to be held at Turin ^in 1911.
BA'LLQONING.
The United States during the year 1007 became the theatre of action for balloons and
balloonists throughout the world. As a result a degree of interest was aroused which
has given an enormous impetus to the investigation of this department of aerial naviga-
tion. Ballooning is no longer indulged in wholly by professional aeronauts. As a sport
it has attracted many men of wealth. Hundreds of enthusiasts during the past year
have enrolled themselves as members of aero clubs. The three principal clubs in the
United States, at New York, Philadelphia and St. Louis, have more than doubled their
membership. Balloon ascensions have become such a commori practice that people are nu
longer amazed at the sight of one up among the clouds. This is especially true in France*
where it is seldom that on a clear day one or more balloons or airships may not be seen
sailing over Paris.
All new records in ballooning established In 1907 were made in tjie United States.
The international balloon race for the James Gordon Bennett Cup, which started from
St. Louis on October 21. resulted in the breaking of all balloon records, both for distance
covered in a single flight and time spent above the earth. The contest was won by Dr.
Osca-r Erbsloeh in the German balloon Pommern, whicli landed at Asbury Park, N. J,,

876% miles from St. T^ouis. Alfred Leblanc. in the French balloon Isle de France,
travelled 87O04 miles, descending at Herbertsville, N. J., only six miles away from the
winner. The other contestants travelled the following distances: Captain von Abercron,
in the Dusseldorf, SOO miles; J. C. McCoy, in the America, 735% miles; Alan R. Hawley.
in the St. Louis, 1\(jV2 miles; Paul Meckel, 'in the German balloon Abercron, GS9% miles;
Rene Gasnier, in the French balloon Anjou, 6741^ miles; Major Henry B. Hersey. in the
United States, 625i,4 miles, and Griffith Brewer, in the English balloon Lotus II., 358%
miles. M. Leblanc, in the French balloon Isle de France, established a new world's
record for duration of flight. The balloon was in the air 44 hours and 2 minutes. The
best previous record was that of 35 hours and 40 minutes, made by Count de la Vaulx
on his famous flight into Russia in 1900. The race in 1!)08 for the Bennett Cup Vv'ill take
place in Germany. Following the St. Louis race the International Aeronautic Congress
was held in New York on October 27-28. The Congress was attended by prominent
aeronauts and scientists of Europe and America.
The Lahm Cup was contested for and won by Captain Charles De F. Chandler and
J. C. McCoy, who started from St. Louis on October 17 and landed in Roan County,
'\\''est Virginia, on October 19, covering a distance of 475 miles. Another conspicuous
flight in 1907 was that of Dr. Wegener, who went from Berlin, Germany, to Enderby,
England, a distance of 812 miles in 19 hours.
Early in the year the United States War Department placed an order for $12,000 worth
of balloons for experim.ental purposes to be used at the United States Aerial Station at
Fort Omaha, Neb. The balloons are intended chiefly for signal work.
On November 9 Dr. Oscar Erbsloeh. with Captain T. T. Lovelace and four other
passengers, made a flight from Philadelphia to New York in the German balloon Pom-
mern, demonstrating that the flight of a balloon could be governed by making use of the
various air currents. The plan of flight, which was announced a week in advance, was
carried out in a highly successful manner, the result proving that the direction of
flight of a, balloon may be controlled by the occupants of the basket.

"* For $1 ,000 at maturity of policy, f Non-participating rates.
The rates for intermediate ages can be approximated by comparison with the rates stated. The
variation in tlie rates is due to the fact that the policj' conditions (surrender values, incontestable
clausevS, etc.) are more liberal in some companies than in others, and because some have employed a
4 per cent, basis for the calculation of their premiums, while othei-s have u.sed 3 or 3^ per cent.
The rates for as.sessment and fraternal organizations are lower than those given above, but being
dependent upon the mortality experienced each year, they are variable and subject to constant change.
The above table of Annual Premium Rates was prepared for Thk Worlb At.manac by S.
Herbert Wolfe, Consulting Actuarv, New York. Any new kinds of policies issued ia 1908 will
involve a different classification of rates.

* Annual statements of the fire insurance companies are rendered to the insurance departments
during the month of January; therefore the statistics of condition January 1, 1908, were not ready
when this publication went to press.
t The New York law requires a deposit of $200,000 from foreign companies with the insurance
department. This is treated by the department as "deposit capital, "and the surplus stated in the
next column is "surplus beyond deposit capital ' ' and other liabilities.

The Erie Mallet Compound, particnlai-s of which are ^iven in the first line of the table, is the
largest and most powerful locomotive ever built. If worked toits full capacity it could haul a train
of'z251oaded freiijht cars of 50 tons capacity each on a level track at 15 miles an hour. Such a train
would bel% miles louET, and the ensiue would be exerting 4,000 horse power. The Pacific type loco-
motive for the Pennsylvania Lines West is t'le heaviest passenjror locomotive ever built, and is
capable of hauling 15 passenger cars at 60 miles au hour ou level track, at which speed it would
have to e.vert nearly 5, 000 horse power.

Owing to the great difficulty in obtaining accurate statements of the immigrants from the con-
tiguous countries of Canada and Mexico, no statistics of immigration into the United Stales of citizens
of tho.se countries are gathered bv tlie Bureau of Immigration. The constant ebb and flow of pensons
entering and leaving the United States from and to Mexico and Canada, at the numerous points
where such movements can be conveniently made, renders accurate statements on this subject
extremely dillicult, and the Bureau of Immigration in its annual report for 1902 states that "the
immigrants do not inclucle arrivals from the neighboring countries of Mexico and Canada except such
as come from abroad through ports in these coimtries for the avowed purpose of entering the United
States." The fact, howeN'T^r, that the Census of 1900 shows the presence of 1,183,225 persons in
the United States born in Canada and 103, 445 persons born in Mexico proves that the number of arri-
vals from those countries, proper to be considered as immigrants, must be large.

MANUFACTURE OF TELECRAPH AND TELEPHONE APPARATUS.
(From Census Bulletin No. 73 of 1907. )
An appa,rent fallingoff in the production of telegraph apparatus from $1,642,266 in 1900 to
lire, district, and miscellaneous, valued at $592,070; wireless telegraph apparatus, valued at
$114,050; and switchboards and parts and supplies, valued at S217.330. Tlie most important recent
improvements have been the introduction of printing telegraph systems and the development and
extension of wireless telegraphy.
The total value of telephonic apparatus manufactured, as reported at the census of 1905, was
$15.863, 698, as compared with $10,512,412 for the census of 1900. Of this total value, $824,204
represented the value of 850,815 transmitters; $696,113, the value of 831, 195 receivers; 86,483,418,
the value of 887,447 complete sets of instruments ; $68,826, the value of 4,560 interior svstems
complete without instruments; $5,154,447, the value of 4.283 central switchboards; $564,795, the
value of 3,917 private exchange boards; and $2,071 ,895, the value of telephone parts and supplies
(chiefly the sigfialling apparatus in magneto-telephone sets and the line protector fuses,Ptc. ).
Illinois is the great centre of telephonic manufacturing Industry in the United States, both as to
number of factories and as to output. More than half the total product, or ^^8,357,521, was from
this State. The output of New York; was also large, but not quite half that of Illinois.
Recent inventions involving the use of telephonic apparatus are: A system of musin production
and distribution by meansof electrical currentsover the telephonecircuits; the Poulsen telegraphone,
the object of which is to furnish a record of the speech received over the telephone; a system of sub-
marine signalling based on the use of the telephone: and the ' ' telegraphone,' ' an iustriiment used ia
conuectiou wiUi railway telegraph circuital

What are known as independent telephone companies, as distinguished from Bell companies, are
nearly all represented in the International Independent Telephone Association, Of these there are
about 9,000 companies operating an aggregate of over 3,500,000 instruments. The capital invested is
approximately $350,00i',000, the number of stockholders 500,000. and the income roughly is 8105,000,000.
During the last year tiie principal feature of the independent companies' activities was the extension
of long-distance business. The Middle West ha.s been best developed, and at present over independent
lines continuous communication is possible throughout nearly all of the territory within the ea.st and
westlimits of Philadelphia and Nebraska and Kansas, and the north and south'limits of INIinneapolis
and Birmingham. The increase in business, according to locality, during 1S07, varied from 10 to 40 per
cent, and averaged between 15 and 20 per cent. (See also Electrical Progress iu 1907).
Telephone messages per annum (latest reports): France, 205,685,374 ; Germany, 1,207,446,753; Great

Yachting.
¥aci)tiug.
Sir Thomas Lipton, through the Royal Irish Yacht Club of Dublin, challenged, in Sep-
tember, for the America's Cup, but acceptance was refused by tlie New York Yacht Club as
custodian of the trophy on the ground that while the challenge called for a race between
yachts in Class J (G8-foot rating! the conditions under the deed of gift require competition
by boats of highest type (90-foot rating). Later efforts were made for a race by the Royal
Swedish Yacht Club of Stockholm and by the Brooklyn Yacht Club, the latter offering a
trophy for an international race of 70-footers.

One of the most Important events of the vear was the brilliant victory of Jay Gould,
the IS-year-old son of George Gould, over Eustace H. Miles, for the British amateur court
tennis championship. Young Gould defended his title as American champion at Boston,
March 23, when he beat Joshua Crane. Jr.. 6—1. 4—6. 6—2, 6—2. At Queen's Club. Lon-
don, May 4. Gould defeated Miles, 3 sets to 2, the scores reading 6 — 4, 4—6, 1—6, 6 — 2, 6 — 4.
Mr. Gould won five contests in England and lost none.
National Racquet Championship.— R. R. Fincke, New York, defeated George H. Brooke,
Philadelphia, at New Y'ork Racquet and Tennis Club, 15—5. 7—15. 17—14. 15—6.
Eastern States Amateur Championship for the Tuxedo Gold Racquet. Valued at $500,
Presented by Hugh Baring.— Clarence H. Mackav. New York Racquet and Tennis Club,
defeated George H. Brooke, Philadelphia, 15—8. 15—8, 15—12. As a result of this contest
at Tuxedo, Mackay, in winning the cup three years In succession, it became his per-
sonal property. ^, „ , , - ^ ,
National Racquet in Doubles.— R. R. Fincke and R. D. Wrenn, New York, defeated
Willing Spencer and Edgar Scott, Philadelphia, at Boston, 15—4, 15—0, 15—0. 15—8.
Canadian Racquet Championship— R. F. McDougall, Montreal, defeated E. Hewitt,
New York, 15—11, 8—15, 15—12, 17—14.
The swimming season of 1907 was notable for the development of swimmers the world
over, and more particularly in the United States. The number and quality of competing
men iniproved wonderfullv. To Americans the feature of the season was undoubtedly the
formation of an intercollegiate swimming association. Five of our leading colleges— Prince-
ton, Y'ale, Pennsylvania, Harvard and Brown— took membership in it, which shows that-
this sport is becoming an important university sport. ^ . , . j., -^^r -o- i
Among the brilliant performances of the year those of C. M. Daniels, of the Ne\v York
A. C, stand supreme. His 100-yard swim in 55 2-5 sec. in the championship of England
is the most sensational performance ever credited to a swimmer, and his mile in 23.40, in
a 00-foot pool, places him in a class by himself. He is a better all-around swimmer than
even the great Barney Reran, of Australia, and undoubtedly the fastest sprinter the world
has ever produced.

Canoe Racing,
In the Spring of 190G one hundred grammar schools in New York City held individual
sets of field day games. This great series of athletic meets, known as the Sunday Wor^d
Field Days, was planned by the Sundaj^ World, which also gave the prizes. The games
were under the direction of the New York Public Schools Athletic League' They were
held in every borough of the city. All the playground parks of Manhattan equipned
with running tracks were used, armories in Manhattan and Brooklyn, the roof ^^on-
nasiums of some of the larger schools, fields in the outlying districts, and the tracks of
Virions athletic clubs. The programme of each of the meets consisted of individual and
relay races, jumping and weight throwing.
In the Spring of 1907 the Sunday World separate school field days were continued
one hundred schools again holding the meets. The same number of medals were awarded
as in 1906. This year the boys were divided into classes according to their wei^-hts and
there were contests for each of the following classes: SO-pound boys. 95-noiind 'hnvti
115-pound boys and in unlimited class of heavier weights. t>o puuna ooys.
Both in 1906 £ind 1907 there was a grand final meet in the Autumn, in which the
100 schools that had held Sunday World field days during the year were each entitled
to enter twenty contestants. These big final meets excited much interest Ten thousand
people witnessed the exciting contests for the championship gold, silver and hrnn^A
medals at Celtic Park in the 1907 meet. ' "^ oronze
• .i" *'i?,'^^'° yQ^\-s of the Sunday World Field Days nearly 40,000 boys have taken nar.t
in the athletic games. The percentage of boys entering the games was very lar-e from
many of the schools exceeding 50 per cent, of the total enrolment in the grammar trades
wtale in some it went very much higher, an unprecedented record in New York school
field athletics.

(Kevised to December 1, ItiUT.)
Aside from the verv successful season at the MeLroiJuliian tracks and the interesting
features of lo.-al interest, the turf year for the thuroujjabreds was especially marked in
the success of Richard Croker, who won the English Derby with a horse of American
l.reedini' and an American jockey; the wonderful career oi the peerless Colin, and tlve
stable wiifnins^of James R. Keen4, which aggregated slightly above $400,000-the largest
amount ever won by any one owner in the world. .. t^ , t,- t h j
Two other Americans, aside from Mr. Croker, have won the Derby— I'lerre Lorillard
with IroQUois in ISM. and the late AVilliam C. Whitney with Volodyoski. in 1001, but
these were not of the owners' breeding. Oiby. the chestnut son of Orme and the
American mare Rlioda 1!.. was bred by Mr. Croker, who also headed the list of winning
owners on the Irish turf for 1!»07.
A large part of Mr. Keene's winnings came from three of the great horses of the
vear— Colin .f i;;i ouO; IVter Pan, $ST.O(m», and IJallot, $.'•!>, OUO. The Duke of Portland held
the former record of $:Jti;»,2!)2 won in is.sy, a large part by Donovan, a three-year-old by

The football season of 1907, while the mogt successful ever known In point of at-
tendance and general results, also showed many great surprises in 'the strength developed
by teams heretofore classed as minor elervens. Nearly alJ the important teams were either
defeated or suffered form reversals in playing strength. Yale, in the East, Chiea;,o, in
the West, and Vanderbilt, in the South, seem to have the best claim for championship
honors. The results in all important games follow, the first column of figures being the
score of the colleges whose names lead in each series:

496 Automobile Indus fr^,
October 1, 1907, marked the close of the automobile selling season, which v/as the
most successful in the history of the industry. There were in use in the United States
175,000 pleasure vehicles of various models and horse power and 18,000 commercial
vehicles, both gasoline and electric. These cars in use ranged in price from $350 to
$6,500 for American-built runabouts; $1,000 to $0,500 was the I'ange for American-built
touring cars, and from $1,500 to $12,000 for touring cars and runabouts of foreign manu-
facture. The estimated valuation of all types of motor driven vehicles in use is
$370,000,000.
PRODUCTION IN THE UNITED STATES.
The estimated production of automobiles of the entire industry is placed at 55,000
machines, as against 40,000 for the preceding year. The approximate value of this
output is $110,000,000. The capital employed in the automobile Industry is approxi-
mately $90,000,000. Nearly every manufacturer of importance has increased the size
of their plants during the year, and their ranks have been augmented by over fifty new
corporations chartered for the manufacture of automobiles and motors.
IMPORTS AND EXPORTS.
Total valuation of the cars imported from January 1, lOOC, to November 1, 1907,
is given at $4,064,249.84. The total valuation of the cars exported from June, 1900, t(»
June, 1907, is $5,502,241.
IMPROVEMENTS AND PRICES.
There has been practically no radical change In the construction of horseless vehicle""
during the year just past. Any notable changes have been in the nature of betterments
in and refinements of detail. The most marked chaRge has been in the increase of the
power plants of the cars, this talcing the form of increased cylinder dimensions in four-
cylinder types, and the production by many manufacturers of six-cj'linder machines. The
gentlem.en's roadster tyjje of car and light cylinder runabout also made remarkable
strides during the year.
Prices in many instances were increased on account of the increased cost of material
and labo" and the adoption of higher grades of steel by the mamifacturei-s.
COMMERCIAL VEHICLES.
Great progress has been made by the manufacturers of this type of automobile, and
many plants throughout the United States have been erected for their exclusive manu-
facture. Their efficiency in the matter of work and small cost of operation has been
established, and many great corporations are substituting them for horse-drawn vehicles.
Heretofore electrically propelled commercial vehicles have had the call, but during the
past year gasolene commcrcia.1 machines have proved by their greater mileage capacity
their superiority for the work calling for long distances and speedy travel. So enormous
is the field for the commercial type of automobile, that manufacturers of pleasure
vehicles have already laid aside plans to meet the demands.
MOTOR TRAFFIC.
The taximeter cab service now in operation ih New York City opens a new field for
the American automobile manufacturer, as this up-to-date service of motor cabs that will
carry taximeters to determine the fares, much on the lines of those at present running
in Paris and London, promises to be popular throughout the counti'y, and seems destined to
shortly replace the horse-drawn cab.
To meet the demand of this most popular type of vehicle several American manu-
facturers have already started their production.
ROADS AND LEGISLATION.
Federal statistics show there are more than 2.151,570 miles of public highwavs In the
United States. Of this mileage 108,232.9 miles are surfaced with gravel, 38,621.7 miles
with stone, and 0,809.7 miles with special materials, such as shells, sand, clay, oil and
brick, making in all 153,CG4.3 miles of improved road. From this it follows that 7.14
per cent, of all the roads in this country have been improved.
The Automobile Club of America and every clu*b of prominence throughout the United
States have been untiring in their efforts to secure good roads and just laws for uses
of automobiles. Special endeavors have been made by the Legislative Board of the
American Automobile Association to obtain Federal registration.
■^ AUTOMOBILE SHOWS.
Shows exhibiting 1908 cars were held earlier than usual. The American Motor Car
Manufacturers' Association held its show at the Grand Central Palace in October, 1007,
and the eighth national show under the auspices of the- Association of Licensed Automo-
bile Manufacturers was held early in November. 1907, at Madison Square Garden; the
Chicago show, November 30 to December 7, 1907, under the auspices of the National
Association of Automobile Manufacturers, and the Importers' Automobile Salon at Madison
Square Garden, December 28, 1907, to January 4, 1008.

AUTOMOBILE EVENTS.
The annual competition for the William K. Vanderbilt Cup was abandoned because
adequate police protection could not be secured. The Glidden Tour, the Sealed Bonnet
Contests and th« Reliability Runs were marked by the great number of cars which were
awarded perfect scores. The twenty-four-hour races were the most prominent of all
racing events held during the year, and were so popular that thei-e are plans on foot for
several motordromes to be exclusivelj'- devoted to this spectacular sport. The relay record
was made at Detroit, the distance covered in twenty-four hours being 1,1:55 miles, made
by American-built cars. The single car record made at Morris Park by a foreign-made
car stands at 1,079 miles.

ILabj of (Contracts,
A oontvact: i.** au agreement ofSwo or more purtie-^, by wbich reciprocal rigbts nii'l
obligations arc created. One I'iirty acyuiirs u ris^lit, ciilorccal'le ai law, to some act or foroearaiicf
froiii tbeoiber, who is under a corresponding oli!ii;ali(iU totbusnctor forbfar.
tiO!ieruliy spoaljing, all contracts wliicl! arc made between two competent parties, for a proper
consideration, wilbont fraud .'uul for a bnvltil i)nrpoHe,are eidorceuble at law.
To the crealioii of a. valid cosuract tlieie mnst be:
1. I'recise agreement. The oiTer of one party must bo met by an acceptance by tbe other, accord-
ing to tlie t(jrm,s ollered.
2. Tliefo must be a consideration. Somethingof value must either be received by one party or
given tip by tbe other. . '
3. Tlie parlies must have Cfvpacity to contract. The contracts of insane persons are notbindin;;
upon lliem. Married women are now genoially permilied to contract as though single, and bind Iboir
separate jtroperty. The contracts of an infant are generally not binding upon him, uidess ratitied
ttftcr •attaining his majority. The contracts of an inlaiit for "necessaries" may be enforced agHinsi
liini to the extent of the reasonable value ol the goods furnished. It is incumbent upon one seei<ing
thus to hold an infant to show that tbe goods finnished were in fact necessary to tlie infant, and that
he wtis not already supplied by hi ■; parents or guardians.
4. The party's consent must not be the result of fraud or imposition, or it may be avoided by tlie
party imposed upon.
5. The purpose of the parties must be lawful. Agreements to defraud others, to violate statutes,
or whose aim is against public policy, sucli a.s to create monopolies, or for the corrupt procurement
of legislative or officiid Kciion,:av^ void, and cannot beenforced by any party thereto.
Coittracrs in geueral are >. qnaily vaJul, v/hei her mado orally or in wrilinK) with
the exception of certain classes of contracts, whicli in most of the .States are required to be attested
by a hote or memorandum in writing, signed by the party or his agent sought to be jield liable.
Borne of the provisions, wliich are adopted f ron» the old Enfflii^h Statute of Fratidw, vary in .some
of the States, but the following contracts very generally are required to be thus attested by some
writing:
Contracts by their terms not to be performed witliin a s'ear from the making thereof.
A promise to answer for the debt, default, or miscarriage of anotJier person.
Contracts made in consideration of marriage, except mutual promises to marry.
Promise of an executor, or administrator, to pay debts of deceased out of his owii property.
Contracts for the creation of any interest or estate in laudtWith the exception of leases for a
short term, generallj- one year.
Contracts for the'sale pf goods above a certain value, imle.ss a portion of the price is paid or part
of the goods delivered. Tlie required value of tlie goods sold varies in ditl'ereut States from $30 to
$200. In a number of the Piates nj such provision exists.
In many of ilie States declarations or conveyances of trust estates.
In many States rei)reseutations as to tlie character, credit, or responsibility of another person.
Partial performance of the contraet is generally lield to dispense \vith the necessity for a
writing.
Jf tiie (lamafcf!^ liable to result fre-m the kreakingr of a contract are niicert«.in» the
parties may agree upon a sum to which either may be entitled as compensation for a l)reach, wliich
will be upheld by tlie courts, but if tlie siuh so fixed is not designed as a fair compensation to the
party injured, but as a penalty to be inilicted, it will be disregarded.
A party is geiieraily excn.»»ed lor tUe failure to perform what he haa agreed only by the
act of God or the public enemy, Itxcept in cases involving a personal element in the work to be per-
formed, suclias ttie rendition of servicer, when the death or sickness of the party contracting to per-
form them is a valid excuse, or contracts for tlie performance of work upon a speciiied object, when
its destruction without the fault of the party sought to be lield liable is a suflicient excusp.
A Will, or Trstamknt is a final disposition of a person's property to take effect after his death.
A codicil is an addition or alteration in such disposition. All persons are competent to make a will
except idiots, peVsons of unsound mind, and iulantrt. In many Stales a will of an unmarried woman Is
deemed revoked by her subsequent marriage. A nuncupative or unwritten will is one made oro//?/
bya .Soulier in active service, or by a mariner while at sea.
Inmost of the States ft will must be in writing-, signed by the testator, or bysome person in his
presence, and by his direction, and attested by witnesses. wiiomuHt subscribe their names tbereto in
the pienfiice of the te.stator. Tlie form of wordiu« a will is immaterial as long as its intent is clear.
A(JKat wbich persons may m?ke wills is in mo-t of llie States yi years. Males and females
are competent to make wills at 18 vears in the fi.llowing States: ('uiiforiiia, Connecticut, Ha-

■ An Acknowledgment is the act of declaring the execution of an instrument before an officer
authorized to certify to such declaration. The officer certifies to the fact of such declaration, and to
His knowledge of the person so declaring. Conveyances or deeds of land to be entitled to be recorded
rhust first be acknowledged before a proper officer. Most of the States have forms of acknowledg-
ments,which should be followed.
Acknowledgments may be taken in genei-al by Notaries Public, .Justices of the Peace, .Judges
or Clerks of Courts of tiie higlier grades, Registers, Masters iu Chancery, (Jourt Commissioners,
Town Clerks, Mayor and Clerks of incorporated cities, within their respective .iurisdictions.
The requisites to a valid deed are the same in general as other contracts, but the appointment
of an attorney to execute a deed for another person must in general be executed with the same
formalities requisite to the deed itself.
SHAts or their equivalent (or whatever is intended as such) are necessary in Alaska, Connecticut,
Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michi-
gan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Cai'oiina, Oregon, Penn-
sylvania, South Carolina, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wiscon.s1n. Wyoming. In almost all the
Slates deeds by corporations mtist be under seal. Forms are prescribed or indicated by the statutes
of most of the States except Connecticut, Floi'ida, Louisiana, separatk acknowjof.dgmknt by wife
is required in Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Idaho. Kentuck.y,
Louisiana, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oregon. Pennsylvania, South C;aroliua,
Tennessee, Texas. Onk Witness to the execution of deeds is required in District of Columbia, INfaine
(customary), Maryland, I\ebra.ska, New Jersey (usual), Oklahoma, Utah, Wyoming. Two W^it-
NEssics to the execution of deeds are required in Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana,
Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Ohio, Oregon, Soutli Carolina, Texa.s, Vermont, Wisconsin.
Negotiable ?»jsti'!!me5ats, the common forms of wliich are promissory notes, checks, or other
bills of exchange, while having the same general requisites as other contracts, have certain distinct
features. The purpose of the law is to facilitate as much as possible their free passing from hand to
hand like currency. The assignment of an ordinary contract leaves the assignee in no ditterentpo-
silion for enforcing his rights than that of his a.ssignor, but one who takes a negotiable instrument
from a prior holder, without knowledge of any defences to it, before its maturity, and gives value for
it, holds it free of any defences which n)ight liave been set up against his predecessors, except those •
defects that were inherent in the instrument itself.
To be negotiable an instrument must be in writing and signed by the maker (of a note) or
drawer (of a bill or check).
It must eonta!ii an unconditional promise or order to pay a sum. certain in money.
Must be payable on demand, or at a fixed future time.
Must be payable to order or to bearer.
In a bill of exciiange (check) the party directed to pay must be reasonably certain.
Every negotiable instrument is presumed to have been issued for a valuable consideration, and
want of consideration in the creation of the instrument is not a defence against a bona-fide holder.
An instrnment is itegotiated, that is completely transferred, so as to vest title in the pur-
chaser, if payable to bearer, or indorsed simi)ly with the name ol the last holder, by mere delivery, if
payable to order Iw the indorsement of the party to whom it is payable and delivei'.v.
One who transfers an instrument by indorsement warrants to' every subsequent holder that the
instrument is geiuiine, that he has title to it, and that if not paid by the party prin^arily liable at ma-
turity, he will pay it upon receiving due notice of non-payment.
To hold an lndoi\ser liable the holder upon its non-payment at maturity must give prompt
notice of such non-payment to the indorser and that the holder looks to the iudorser for payment.
Such notice should be sent within twentv-four hours.
When an indorser is thii.s compelled to pay he may hold prior parties tlirongh whom he
received the instrument liable to him by sending them prompt notice of iion-iaayment upon receiv-
ing such notice from the bolder.
One who transfers a negotiable instrument by delfvery, without indorsing it, simply warrants
that the instrument is genuine, that he has title to it, and Knows of no defence to it, but does not
agree to pay it if unnaid at maturitv. -
The maker ofa note is liafeie to pay it if nnpaidat maturity without any notice from the
holder or indorser.
Notice lo one of several partners is sufflcient notice to all.
\^'hen a check is certified by a bank the bank becomes primarily liable to pay it without no-
tice of its non-payment, and when the holder of a check thus obtains its certification by the bank, the
drawer of the check and previous indorsers are released from liability, and the holder looks to the
bank for payment.
A bona-fide liolder ofa negotiable instrument, that is, a party who takes an instrument regu-
lar on its face, before its maturity, pays value for it and has no knowledge of any defences to it, is
entitled to hold the party primarily liable i-esponsible for its pajnnent. despite any defences he may
have against the party to whom he gave it, except such as rendered the instrument void in its incep-
tion. Thus, if the maker of a note received no value for it, or was induced to issue it through fraud
or imposition, the.v do not defeat the right ofa bona-fide holder to compel its payment from him.
The follo^ving State!* have enacted a similar Negotiable Instrument Law: Colorado, Con-
necticut, District of Columbia, Florida. IMarvland, Massachusetts, North Carolina, North Dakota,
Pennsylvania, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, New York, and Ten-
nessee—and the same general f ules apply in ^11 the States.
502 Dtstnhutlon of I)iteiitates Personal Estate,
BfstintJUtCon of Kutcstatc'sf J^evsonal ISstate.
The following is a synopsis of the laws of the various States providing 'for the
distribution of the personal estate of a deceased after the payment of funeral expenses
and other debts where there Is no will:
In many of the States the widow and children are entitled to receive a small
portion of the estate, generally varying from $100 to $500, before the claims of creditors
are paid. Aside from such exempt portion of the estate, the property to be distributed
to the widow or relatives is that remaining after all creditors' claims have been satisfied.
The following is the plan of distribution of a male's property. The same rules apply
to a female's estate, except in some Statts, where the rights of a husband in thf> estate
of his deceased wife differ from those of a wife in the estate of her deceased husband,
which will be shown in a separate table.
I. In all States where the deceased leaves a child or children, or descendants of any
deceased child, and no widow, the children or descendants lake the entire estate, to the
exclusion of all other relatives. The children take equal shares, and in most States the
descendants of a deceased child together take the share of their parent, except where
the descendants are all in equal degree to the deo-ased (all grandchildren, no children
surviving), when they sliare equally and do not take their proportionate share of their
pai-ent's interest.
Ko statement is given in this synopsis of the law of Ivtuisiana. which, being founded
on the provisions of the French code and Rnman law instead of the English common
law, which is the* underlying principle in the other States, differs in many respects from
the principles followed in the other States, especially on the question of the rights of a
husband and wife in each other's property and in the prnpprty a<'quired by the husband
and wife during their married life. The provisions of the law of Indiana are also not
included, for the reason that for an accurate statement of its provisions a reading of
the entire statute is necessary, together with the decisions of the Indiana courts con-
struing its provisions, which woit",d occupy too much space for a statement here.

(g» In Georgia, if there are less than five children, the widow takes the same share
as each of the children; if there are five or more children, the widow takes one-fifth

The shortest time around the world is claimed-,to have been made by Lieut. -Col. Burnley
Campbell, who left Liverpool on May 3, 1!)07, and on his return landed at Dover on Jun.^
13, covering the circuit in 40 days and 19% hours. If he had caught the St. Petersburg
express at Berlin he would have reduced this time by several hours. The itinerary was as
follows:
Left Liverpool on May 3 at 7.20 P. M.; arrived at Quebec on May 10, 3 P. M., leaving by
Canadian Pacific oversea transcontinental mail train at 5 P. M.
Reached Vancouver on May 19 at 5 A. M,; sailed at 12.30 P. M. by Canadian Pacific

JSlect)'ical Progress in 1907. 513
SSlcctrical iJrofjrcss in 1907.*
"While in some respects the progress in 1907 was not so phenomenal as during the
preceding year, it was more substantial because more conservative. The money slrin-
gencjy in the latter half of the year affected the producing industries, but did not seriously
retai-d the general advance. Assuming a 10 per cent, increase, the electrical apparatus
produced in this country was probably worth $1275,000,000. The earnings of public utility
corporations, estimated from the two preceding years, were at least $1,000,000,000, so that
the combined cost of electrical service and goods in this country easily totalled $1,250,-
000,000. Electric railways still represent the largest investments and earnings, the
capitalization being about $4,000,000,000, and the combined revenues last year over
$1,000»000 a day, or approximately 10 per cent, more than in 190G. Proportionately,
electric lighting advanced even more, and the business is now close to one-haJf that of
street railways. Many companies reported a 25 per cent, increase. Incandescent lamp
sales were about that amount greater and cui^rent sales still greater. Telephone business
was also greatly increased, and the trend in all three fields was lower cost, higher
economy, and better service. Export trade in all lines was better than ever, and the
value of electrical instruments and machinery exported probably ran well into $19,000,000.
In scientific achievement the field of electro-metallurgy was moit prominent.
Household applications of electricity were much extended. Electric radiators, cooking
utensils, flat irons, and motors for driving sewing machines, washing machines, coffee
grinders, meat choppers, freezers, etc., are now available at moderate prices, and cheap
current is more widely distributed. An electrical device that became of notable industrial
importance was the lifting magnet for handling heavy pieces of iron and steel, or numbers
of loose pieces, in connection with cranes and hoists, where it takes the place of hooksi
or slings, and saves time in loading and unloading.
TELEGRAPHY AND TELEPHONY.
A serious impediment to the extension of the existing telegraph companies in the
United States was the strike of the Commercial Telegrapher's Union last Summer, wliich
severely hampered the service and reduced tlie profits. It may, however, prove a benefit
to projected companies. One of these, the New American Union Telegraph Company, pi'e-
pared to begin operations the first of this year transmitting telegrams over leased telephone
wires by a method that allows using them for both purposes. Another, the Telepost Com-
i>any, will in part use telephone wires also. Greatly increased transmitting speed by the use
of Dhe Delany apparatus is the feature of the Telepost system. Heretofore rapid mechanical
telegraphy was limited by the static effect or capacity of the line, but this characteristic
is utilized by the I>elanj^ system and becomes an advantage instead of an obstacle.
Another advantage is independence of weather conditions and outside magnetic or electric
disturbances. Last year the Telepost Company was organized and will shortly open its
first section. The systein was practically tested for over a year and proved its ability to
transmit 1,000 words a minute. One wiz-e will send the work of a number of operators,
who can be simultaneously preparing the messages for transmission. With the present
quadruplex sending two messages each way at one time it would require seventeen wires
to do the work of one Telepost wire.
Commercial service between Nova Scotia and Ireland by the Marconi wireless system
was inaugurated October IS. Nearly five years ago the first message was sent across
the Atlantic Ocean, and commercial service was attempted two years ago, but abandoned
because the apparatus was not sufficiently powerful and sensitive. Daylight transmission
is now nearly as satisfactory as sending by night. Experimental wireless stations T\*ere
ereoted in France to test tiie Artom system, and a Slaby-Arco wireless station was estab-
lished at Tsingtau, China, by the German Government. Wireless telegrapliy proved no
serious competitor of the cable as evidenced by the new cables laid last year. It is
believed that it will only partly relieve the congested traffic on the existing thirteen
transatlantic cables. The new cables were one from Manila to Shanghai, laid by the
Commercial Cable Company last Spring, and a direct cable from New York to Havana,
opened October 14. The Central and South American Cable Company placed its New Yoi-k
to Colon cable in operation September 1.
Automatic exchanges, as operated by the independent telephone companies, were more
In evidence than ever. .Some 74 cities in this country have adopted the automatic system.
Another independent development is the Clement-Automanual, a semi-automatic system,
and the initial installation was ordered for Ashtabula, Ohio. It is adapted for use in
conjunction with any central energy manual system now in operation. A call is connected
by manipulating a keyboard similar to that of an adding machine, and no cords or plugs
are used. It claims speed, accuracy, secrecy, and^ economy. From 40 to "SO per cent,
fewer operators are required than for a purely manual system. Between Columbus and
Dayton. Ohio, successful experiments were tried for the first time in long-distance
telephony through automatic exchanges. Telephonic communication was officially opened
July 10 betv.een Melbourne and Sydney, Austi-alia, over 600 miles.
The success had with De Forest wireless telephones on two United States battleships
led to the decision to place the apparatus on some of the vessels of the fleet going to the
Pacific this year. A speaking range of five miles is guaranteed in all weathers, and
22 miles was covered in one test. Between Berlin and Nauen, Germany, speech was
transmitted 12 miles by wireless telephony. A new system of wireless telephony employs
a hydraulic microphone transmitter invented by Prof. Majorana, an Italian, and reported
good results. (See also "Telephone Statistics. "J
ELECTRIC LIGHTING.
New kinds of light or new ways of producing it were not so much in evidence last
year as new ways of distributing it. A phase of the art formerly neglected received a big
inipetus through the Illustrated Engineering Society, which was founded in January,
1906, and now has about 1,000 members. Its principal aim is to correct the evils of most
electric light installations, whioh are wasteful and injurious to the eyes, and it has

added much la the available scientific data. Anolhfr of its purposes is to bring about an
International unit of luminous inten.sity, which i3 greatly needed because present standar>l:3
are not uniform.
Use of high efficlencj' lighting units increased markedly, these being: such as tha
Nernst and Gem lamps, Moore and CoDper-Hewitt tubes and "tantalum and tung-sten flla-
niiint lamps. The Zirconiuni-tung-sten lamp was decidedly improved, the filament breakage
being reduced, size of the lamp decreased, and any i)t>sili()n made luissible. The Sirius
colloid lamp, developed by Hans Kuzel, of N'ienna, is one of the tungsten vaiioty in which
the metal exists in the colloidal state. The advantage is greater flexibility, which
decreases the fragility. It claims a life well over 1,000 hours at one watt per candle. A
number of new makes of metallic or metallized filament lamps were put on the market
during the year, and there was also an increase in the number of flaming ai'cs offered.
The latter are in very extensive use abroad and are being rapidly adopted here as the
most efficient form of light known.
A new mercury vapor lamp was offered commercially last year in Germany, having a
fused quartz tube in place of a glass tube, which, by permitting higher temperatures,
enables a higher illuminating efficiency. The current consumption per candle power is
much less, the color is better since red rays appear, the life is longer, and the lamp is
much smaller for equal candle power. The light promises to be mainly a competitor of
the arc lamp, since its intensity makes it more an outdoor than an indoor illuminant.
Another new German lamp, designed to remove the disagreeable color of the mercury
vapor light, combines in such a lamp an incandescent cai'bon filament, which serves to
start the vaporization of the mercury.
Although one of the youngest of the electrical industries, the nianufacture of incan-
descent lamps is one of the largest. The estimated output for 1007 was over 200,000,000
lamps, nearly double that of two years ago and nearly eight times that of 1900.
ELECTRO-CHEMISTRY AND ELECTRO-METALLURGY.
Edison's long-promised storage battery or accumulator was finally offered to the
market in December. This has been in process of experimental development for several
years, but was withheld until perfected to the inventor's satisfaction. Its principal defects,
as applied to automobiles, w-ere limited range of action and lack of ability to withstand
jarring, and these, it is claimed, have now been removed.
Several electro-chemical and metallurgical industries were established in England. In
London a commercial process of producing electrolytic disinfectant was successfully em-
ployed. A solution of sodiunj and magnesium chlorides, when acted upon by an electric
current liberates chlorine in the solution. The disinfectant is used to water roads, market
places, etc., and is dispensed to the public for household use. In Germany electrical
methods of extracting nitrogen from the air for fertilizers and explosives attracted increased
attention. Two large companies prepared to engage in this process. At Nottoden, Norway,
a large plant was placed in operation manufacturing nitrate of lime and soda and nitric
acid electrically by the Birkland-Eyde process. Water purification and sewage sterilization
by electricity were both advanced in efficiency last year.
The statement was made last July by Bertram Blocint before the British Institution
of Civil Engineers that "at the present time there is more solid progress being made in
electro-metallurgy tlian at any previous time." The manufactua-ing of iron and ste&l,
aluminum, sodium, and the refining of ct>pper were referred to as the principal such
Industries. A notable series of experiments with the Heroult electric furnace in reducing
Iron ores was conducted at Sault Ste. Marie, under the patronage of the Canadian Govern-
ment, to determine the practicabilit:' of electric iron smelting. High-grade alloy steels
are now being made in various Austrian plants using the Kjellin, the Keller, and the
Heroult electric furnaces. More was heard of the induction type of furnace than before,
and it now holds promise of considerable value -.n metallurgical work. Becket and Price
took out several patents on the production of ferro alloys in such an electric furnace.
ELECTRIC RAILWAYS.
An important factor in the progress of the year was steam railroad electrification, very
extensive plans for which were begun. The electrification of the New York terminal of
the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad was extended, all of the terminal trains
now being operated electrically. The New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad com-
pleted its electrification as far as Stamford, Ct. These two roads afford comparison
of the two standard types of equipment— direct current low potential, as used by the New
York Central, and single-phase alternating current high potential, as used by the New
Haven road. The former operates suburban trains on the multiple unit system, the
latter uses locomotives, and both use locomotives for hauling steam trains through the
electrified zone. The Pennsylvania Railroad also decided on single phase alternating
current, and the first of its locomotives for use through the Hudsi^n and East River
tunnels was tested with marked success. Abroad, the Prussian Railway decided to
electrify a part of its lines; Bavaria was considering the almost complete use of electricity;
the Austrian authorities decided to adopt electricity on the Arlberg Railway, and Berlin's
local electric service was considerably extended. Among the numerous electrified urban
and interurban roads was the system of the Southern Pacific Railway to connect San
Francisco with Oakland. Berkeley, and adjacent points.
While progress was shown in extending local street railways and building new ones,
It was not so striking as the increase of interurban service. Several interurban lines have
nearly invaded the steam railroad field, and are now operating sleeping, parlor, and fre4ght
cars. H. F. Holland, of the Holland Palace Car Company, brought out an improved
combination parlor and sleeping car for interurban railways. Five electric roads were
equipped last year to use direct current at 1,200 volts. «
POWER AND POWER TRANSMIS.SION. *
Of the various forms of prime movers steam turbines and gas engines were used more
than ever, and reciprocating steam engines held their own, but water powers attracted
The American .Bison Soeletj/ . 515

the nioBt attention. The imiiipdiate reason is the need of cheaper power, but it is linportant,
too. to conserve the dwindling supplies of coal and other fuels by making use of this
inexhaustible natural resource. In this country the developments wrre more numerous
in the West and South, and al)road, particularly where coal is expensive, there was even
more attention griven to improving available water powers. One of these countries. France,
Is estimated to have available hydraulic power of between D.OOO.OW and 10.000,000 horse
power. Germany and Switzerland are foremost in the development of water powers to
generate electricity for general industrial purposes and the operation of steam roads
which it is intended to electrify. Many notable undertakings are either now under way
or the plans matured to be shortly carried into effect. Among them ai-e proposed power
dams on the Mohne, the Nidda, the Eder, the Diemal, and the Rhine. Work was begun
on a 20.000-horse power hydro-electric plant in Norway to utilize the water of the
Ringedalsvand. Tunnels to a length of 16,500 fe«t will be constructed and 40,000-horse
power will be made available.
The most novel power plant of its kind was one built on the Patapsco River, near
Ilchester, Md.. which was the first to be located within the dam itself. The scheme wa.s
possible by using reinforced concrete construction, and is advantageous in that one
structure serves a double purpose and the effective head of the water is increased.
Natural light and ventilation are secured on the down-stream side, and the conditions
within are as comfortable as in any ordinarily located plant.
Electric power in mining operations has advantages which are quite generally appre-
ciated, but there was a notable increase in the number of applications last year. Prin-
cipally the electricity replaces compressed air. and a better economy is obtained, particu-
larly when storage batteries are used to equalize the load on the generators. A model
electrical equipment was that installed last year in the Thiederhall Mines in Germany.
The use of electric power was considerably extended in the Lake Superior copper mines.
In the deliberations of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers mu^h attention
was given to high tension line construction. The greater economy of large stations
emphasizes the desirability of large areas of current distribution. Improved forms of
insulators have made higher pressures allowable, so that longer lines may be erected
before a prohibitive expense for conductors is reached. The Grand Rapids-Muskegon
Power Company's 72.000-volt line, which is i)2 miles long and has the highest working
voltage in the world, was more successful than expected and afforded valuable data on
insulating and suppoi^ting such a line. A new type of insulator carries lines by suspension
and may mark a departui-e from old practice. Last Summer's break in the abnormally
high price of copper was -fortunate for the extension of power transmission systems. The
development of Victoria Falls and a 700-mile transmission was still talked of, but its
realization remains for the future.
Not all high-tension transmission is by alternating current. For several years the
Thury direct current system has been applied with increasing voltages. At last accounts
The highest in use was 57.000 volts in a line in France, and another, intended to transmit
power to Paris from a hydraulic plant on the Rhone, near the Swiss frontier, was proposed
for 140,000 volts. •
^!)0 ^nurican 3Stson Society*
In the belief that Americans generally will be found in sympathy with a carefully
planned movement to save what might well be termed their national animal, and in order
that all who desire may take part in the work of preservation, there was recently organized
in New York City the American Bison Society, which, in accordance with its constitution,
has for its object "the permanent preservation and increase of the American Bison."
This Society will seek to have established in widely separated localities, under govern-
ment auspices, several herds of buffalo, on suitable ranges (preferably government land),
such ranges to be chosen from a large number that have been recommended by competent
persons. These herds, under proper management, should increase until the race is no
longer in danger of extinction.
W'ith this end in view, the American Bison Society has now begun an active campaign.
A bill calling for national aid in the establishing of several buffalo herds is already under
consideration. In the meantime, the Society purposes to make a determined effort to
organize the interest of the public in the fate of the American buffalo, and presently bring
it to bear in such manner that it will result in the governments of both the United States
and- Canada taking active measures to insure that animal's preservation and increase.

ARCHAEOLiOGY.
From the land of the Pharaohs, where the secret tomhs of over half a hundred ajicient
monarchs— gieat subterranean vaults— have already been explored, reports were i\eceived of
the excavating of the Oldest temple by 1,000 years. This is an Ainerit.an enterprise, and
will doubtless enrich the museums of New \ork City and other contributing centres, as
well as the National Museum at Cairo. Egypt continued to contribute Invaluable papyri
and inscriptions. The discovery of Menander's comedies has bi-en followed by new sur-
prises. From the frontiers of Kgypt and Wubia, close to the tropica, tlie little island of
Elephantine yielded ancient Hebrew documents dating from 400 B. C, and revealing ilio
existence of a temple of Jehovah in that locality. These writings make m.^ntion of
liiijlical characters— Yehohanan, high prieat of Jerusalem, and Sanballat, Governor of
Stmaria, and refer to the foregrround of liistory. Together with letters revealing- dei.ttjis
of daily life, they constitute a veritable ireasure-trove.
Fresh discoveries rewarded sriontific re.search in other lands, nr.tably in Central Asia
and also in Palestine, where much posilivn information has been obtained regaidin^ the
period preceding the .Jewish conquest and more Important discoveries (bearing on the
h'ter periodi are anticipated. Further contributions, howevf>r, arp needed for the prosecu-
tion of the work. In Greece a consideralWe section of the marketplace of ancient Corinth
has been cleared, and the Odeion. or conrr-rt-hall, prosfuted to the city by Herodes Atticus,
discovered and partially excavated. Impoi-tant research was also carried on in the outer
Keraineikos. Here have ber-n unearthed the bases Of the Ambass-adors' Monument and
the Tomb of Pythagoras. Research was alfo continued at Olympia and Tlryus.
The excavation of the Roman Forum is now almost comi>let<^. after nine years' work.
Italy, it was announced, would carry <^n the excavations of Herculaneum without for-

ASTRONOMY.
The possibilities of progress In the observation and study of the stars have been
greatly increased by Professor Todd, of Amherst College, who devised a, means of operating
at astonishing altitudes with the aid of a tank of compressed air. During their operations
In South America, the Professor and iSIr. E. C. Siiphcr secured 10.000 pictures of the
planet Mans. The double canals wero iihotographcd. and an entirely new map will be made.
The canals undoubtedly vary with th° seasoui?, indicating vegetable and probably animal
and "human" life. Other lines of evidence converge to the same conclusion, particularly
the results secured at Flagstaff, Ariz., by Professor Lowell, who photographed the double
canals in the Northern Hemisr>hore and directed the work in South Ajnerica.
Curious phenomena described as "knots" or gaps were detected in the rings of the
planet Saturn, and unusually fine photogra!>hg were secured of the transit of Mercury on
November 14. Fragments of the rings of Saturn are certainly falling in upon the planet,
iiut. according to Professor L<ov,-ell. the process Is neither new nor catastrophic, it is
especially interesting, as illustrating the celestial mechanism and the working of the
law of gravitation. The "markings" on the planet Venus were seen by three observers at
Flagstaff, where the Lowell observatory affords splendid facilities for astronomical research.
From a studj' of stellar motion by Mr. Edr'ington, of Greenv.-ich. it appeared that
Kapteyn's hypothesis was correct as to division into two groups or "drifts," and that one
of the drifts moves relatively to the sun abou*- three times as fast as the other. In the
number and magnitude of the units composing them these two drifts would appear about
equally bal9.nced.
Investigation of the movements of about one hundred and fifty comets by the French

It was announced that a substitute for radium had been found in urayl molybdate, a
substance showing the same radioactivity as radium bromide.
Further progress was made in the manufacture of diamonds and other precious .stones,

On February 2 the distinguished cliemist and geologist Dimitri I. Mendeleef, one of
the world's greatest scientists, died at St. Petersburg. To Mendeleef was due the discovery
of the famous "periodic law" governing the relation between the properties of chemical
elements and their atomic w^eights. Prof. Mendeleef predicted the existence of three
elements then unknown, and outlined their properties. His prediction was subsequently
verified by the discovei-y of the elements now known as gallium, germanium, and scan-
dium.
The famous French chemist, P. E. Berthelot (founder of synthetic chemistry) died
suddenly (on hearing of the dearth of his wife) on March 25, and was buried in the Pantheon
at Paris. His death followed that of Henri Moissan (of the same city), another noted
name. Instead of patenting appliances of the greatest utility, Moissan gave them freely
to the world.
GEOLOGY AND PALEONTOLOGY.
Charles D. Walcott, under whose efficient management the United States Geologifal
Survey more than doubled the sphere of its activities, was appointed Secretary of the
Smithsonian Institution (the highest scientific honor in the gift of the Government).
The Survey now employs in its Reclamation Service over 500 civil engineers and
assistants. Within four years it reclaimed 280,000 aca^es of desert wilderness, in whk'h
thousands of settlers found better homes. The service has already worked v.-onders in tha
canyons of the West, and it is proposed to cover an area two-fifths of the size of the
whole United States.
Petitions from tlie Eastern, Middle, and Southern States for an extension of the
reclamation system have been sent to Congress. It was shown that swamp Iannis aggre-
gating about 50,000,000 acres could be drained and rendered available for 12,000,000 people,
with an increase in land value of $5,000.(X)0,000.

ENGINEERING.
Owing to the frequent accidents on American railways, the regulation of speed has
become a matter of vital importance. Speed indicators were placed some time ago on all
the passenger engines of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy system, and engineers for-
bidden to "make up for lost time." A new ruling also requires that an engineer be able
to see distant signals without the aid of glasses, which are liable to be broken or clouded
while a train is running at the rate of 100 feet per second.
Excess of phosphorus in steel seems to have been the principal cause of the harvest
of accidents from broken rails, commercialism overruling scientific met?Jlurgy. Another
cause of derailment was believed to be the use of old-fashioned types of frog and wheel-
flange.
Referring to the automatic stop apparatus on the express tracks of the New York
Subway, "Railway and Locomotive Engineering" pointed out a means of absolute pro-
tection against further collisions in the country at large.
Use of automatic explosives for trains passing signals was also proposed.
Cars made of steel are coming into general use, and the year opened with a strong
demand for this tvpe of rolling stock, both freight and passenger.
It has been claimed that in the event of wrecks, it would be impossible to reach
victims encased in a steel car. Such cars, have, however, shown remarkable strength and
endurance in collisions.
The first steel Pullman sleeper, completed in 1907, was a marvel of workmanship and
artistic beauty. "" . ^ , , , .^,.
Streets of steel have been proposed to the City of Paris, and a section of blocks, with
ridges to prevent slipoing, has already been laid. Nails imbedded in asphalt. wHh points
projecting, surface holes, and extreme smoothness and insecurity in Winter weather have
shown the need of newer methods.
An ox>'Ucetylene machine for severing steel and iron, combining saiety with extreme
speed, found much favor with French engineers.
Several new types of hvdroplanes, or gliding boats, combining great motor power with
extreme lightness of construction, showed remarkable speed on the Seine, near Paris, and
a machine for use on land and water was a novelty in automobile construction.
' On August 10, Prince Scipio Borghese won an automobile race from Peking to Paris,
after driving his car nearlv 8,000 miles in two months.
Referring to the proposed tunnels iinder Behring Strait, the Strait of Gibraltar, the

AFRICA.
In their native cnUture. as well as in tlieir exrreptional power of a?^slmllating European
civilization, the people of I'ganda are probably llu- mast advuiKed of African tribes. They
have now a native Parliament and courts, and, Iroin the first, their readiness to receive
instruction has been reniaikable. On the other hand, the Anglo-Egyptian Soudan may be
mentioned as a vast region still sunk in the depths of barbarism. With an area one-third
as large as the United States, the land under cultivation is less than the area of Long
Island. N. Y., the remainder consisting of desert and primeval forest. The demand for
unskilled labor is far in excess of the supply, and the rate of wages has risen considerablj'.
According to Lord Cromer, the most important political issue will probably be the abolition
of slavery without serious disorder. In establishing railroad communication, much has
already been done, notably in lines connectin.^ the Soudan and the Nile Valley and the
Province of Dongola with the sea. The population is now placed at l,otX),000 to 2,000,000
(by the Soudan Almanac for I'JOV).
The activity of the French in consolidating their influence in the Central Sahara was
Illustrated by a journey of 15,200 miles tT.'iO over mw ground i by Captain Arnaud, across
the wh<jle region from Algeria to the coast of Dahomey, at Kotonu.
In East Africa, a detailed examination of the interesting region between Kilimanjaro
and the Victoria Xyanza was completed by Dr. Jaeger and Herr Oehler. Marked progress
and prosperity was reported fi-om South Rhodesia. Mr. L. A. Wallace, Chief Surveyor
to the British South Africa Company in Northeastern Rhodesia, reported that there are
already 5,000 miles of astronomically surveyed routes in that region. Its rich cotton soil
iis probably its best recommendation. There are also extensive forests of excellent timber
and rich mines of copper, lead and zinc, with a very large area of good farming land in
the highlands.
From estimates by the British Cotton Growers' Association, it appeared that Northern
Nigeria may probably produce at some future time 7.000,000 bales of cotton, enough to
supply Great Britain, and leave a large quantity for other countries.
Railroads, to establish quick connection between the mineral fields of Katanga and
the Atlantic Coast, a distance of 1.000 miles, were reported under construction. The
amount of copper in Katanga, within a hundred feet of the surface, ready for exploitation,
is enormous, and tin, gold and coal have ailready been discovei-ed.
ASIA.
That a new era is opening in China was very evident from the accounts published by
Lieutenant-Colonel Wingate of his nine years' survey and exploration in the northern and
central sections. In the ancient City of Luchon. and also in Ngan-king, the capital of
Ngan-hwei. rapid progress is being made in education along modern lines. Splendid schools
and hospitals are in operation, and the thirst foi- Western knowledge is apparent on every
side. The inhabitants of Southern Ngan-hwei are especially eager for all modern and
Western improvements. In Northern China and in the interior, many Chinese are eager
for the extension of railroads, telegraphs and mail service to their towns.
Archaeological research, combined with geographical exploration, was carried on in
Central Asia. From a letter received from the anthropologist, Dr. Stein, at Kiria, it was
learned that sections (hitlierto unexplored) of the T^shkurgan River Valley had been
systematically surveyed, as well as the eastern slopes of the Mustagh-Ata range to the
latitude of Yang-Hissar. Further research was reported in the high mountains south of
Khotan. At the site of Khadalik, Dr. Stein recovered many manuscripts on paper. In
Sanskrit, Chinese, and in the unknown language of old Khotan. besides many wooden
tablets inscribed in the same language, and some in Thibetan. Large rolls of a Buddhistic
text in Chinese were found, having on the reverse what was evidently a translation into
the old language of Khotan. These may supply the long-desired clue to the de'^lpiierment
of that language. The geography and archaeology of Central Asia have been greatly
advanced by Dr. Stein's investigations In conjunction witih the researches of another noted
savant, M. Le Coq.
News was also received that Dr. Sven Hedin had arrived at Ngangou-tso, m the
southern part of Thibet, after crossing the country from north to south, and discovering
many new rivers, lakes and mountains. On February 22, he wrote from Shigatse: "The
country between Ngangtsi-tso and the Brahmaputra is one of the most interesting portions
of Thibet. The plateau stretching to the south, hitherto unknown, is one of the highest on
the earth." From Stanagbo. the explorer travelled by boat, on a river full of floating
ice. There was a constant stream of boats with pilgrims on their way to the New
Year festivals at Tashi Lumpo and Sven Hedin met with a very hearty welcome. The
Tashi-Lama overwhelmed him with kindness, presents and provisions, and permitted him
to sketch and photograph at will. Between Chinese Turkestan and the southern border
of Thibet. S40 miles were travelled in unexplored country, all of wliich was mapped, points
being fixed astronomicallv and i>anoramas diawn.
When within sight of Dangra-yum-tsa. the explorer was stopped by fifty horsemon
and informed that he could go wherever he wi.'^hed. only not to tlhe holy lal<e. He praised
the work of his predecessors. Major Rider and Captain Rawling. as evidenced in ttie
kindness and hospitality of the people.
Further south, in India, political agitation and unrest was one of the features that
marked the year. A convention, delimitating spheres of influence in Asia, notably in
Persia, was signed by England and Russia on August 31. «
The Japanese were actively engaged in developing the southern half of the Island
of Saghallen, acquired by treaty from Russia at the close of the recent war.

AMERICA.
Progress in the topographic map of the United States, with work in thirtv-one States
and Territories, was announced. Two parties were engaged in Alaska, making detailed
maps of mining districts.
_ The Geological Survey arranged to carry on measurements of the quantity of water
in important streams at over six hundred gauging stations in fortv-two States (in the fiscal
year 1907-8t. Lnder the present syaitem. it is probable that within twenty years practically
all the land available foi* irrigation will have been utilized and tihe demand for new land
as strong as ever. Hence, any plan making it possible to avoid the enormous waste of
water by evajioration is worthy of careful consideration.
From observations by an exi^edition from the desert station of the Carnegie Institu-
tion, the Salton I^ake was found to cover an area of nearly seven hundred square miles.
Announcement was made of a magnetic survey of Mexico, under the joint auspices
of the Carnegie Institution and the Mexican Government.
Prof. Chas. W. Brov/n, who visited Jamaica to study the effects of seismic disturb-
ances, found that the earthquake which destroved the City 'of Kingston was confined in its
area of gn-eatest destruction to small limits on alluvial ground. About 85 per cent, of the
buildings in the closely built city were destroved. Eighty shocks were noticed between
January 14 and February r., and others have occurred since.
Increasing interest has been shown in the Republics of South America. A studv
of the climate of the Amazon basin region by Paul I^e Cointe (based on fourteen years"'
experience) .'^howed that tiie temperatures of this region, comparatively little known,
though high, were very uniform and not excessive. The seasonal divisions are determined
by rainfall. Floods occur v.-irh rpgul3.rity, covering immense areas and forcing the inhabi-
tants to* live in boats or seek the upper stories of their dwellings. Malaria (which seems
to occur in the absence of mos(]uitoesi and other tropical diseases arej, unfortunately, a
setrious barrier to exploration and settlement.
Tlie Geographical and Geological Commission of Sao Paulo, Brazil, issued a very full
report, describing in detail the explorations and survey of the larger rivers of the State.
An extension of the railway at Guayaquil (on the western slope of the Andes) to
Quito, Ecuador, was reported, and also the beginning of a line down the Atlantic slope
of the Peruvian Andes, to connect the Amazon witJh the Pacific. The road over the Andes,
which Cnile and Argentina are building, the last Mnk in the line across the continent,
wa^ nearing completion.
POLAR RESEARCH.
News was received from Buenos Ayres that the Argentine research ship, Uruguav,
had returned from a perilous voyage to Scotia Bay, South Orknev Islands, whither she
had gone to relieve the members of a meteorological party who had spent more than a
year on that desert island, continuing the work initiated by the Scottish Antarctic exoedi-
tiion of 1903. Another party then embarked for Wendel Island (vvest side of Graham
L/and). Observations were continued at South Georgia, and plans were made for estab-
lishing stations in the South Sandwich group and on the wesr side of the Falklands. All
this work is under the control of the Argentine Republic, whose meteorological service
IS in the highest state of efficiency.
King Edward VII. Land was selected as the base of operations bv Lieutenant Shackle-
ton for a British expedition to the Antarctic. An attempt will be made to reach the
South Pole by a party of three, with six Siberian ponies and a motor car. A Belgian
expedition for the South Pole was announced under the leadership of Dr. H. Arctowski.
Of special interest was the Arctic journey of Captain Mikkelson and Mr. Leffingwell
on sledges to lat. 71 deg. 17 min. N., long. 147 deg. 44 min. W., which was accomplished
under the most adverse conditions. Pickaxes wer^ in constant use (until lost), and a
raft w^as improvised with sledges when necessarv. Five hundred and thirtv-three nautical
miles, lagoon ice and drift included, were made on the trip. .361 over pack ice. Valuable
information regarding ice conditions in Beaufort Sea was one of the scientific results. On
September 14 a despatch, correcting the report that the partv had perished, was sent from
l>:ukon Crossing to THE WORLD by the anthropologist. Mr." Stefanson.
The equipment of a Russian expedition to explore the Arctic regions was renorted
(the expedition to last several years), under the leadershin of Lieutenant-Colonel Sergeyeff,
and the eighth trip to the Polar regions bv Dr. Bruce was also announce^..
The west coast of Nova Zembla was explored by the Duke of Orleans, in the Belgica,
and much scientific data secured.
The proposed expedition of Commander Peary was postponed, owing to the delay
of over two months in the construction and installation of the boilers for the Roosevelt.
*,• , "^""pnatiderable progress was made by Walter Wellman, in preparation for his final
flight by airship to the North Pole. The expedition set sail for Danes Island. Spitzbergen,
on June 3. on the Arctic steamer Frithjof. On aiTiving at the station selected, furious
gales wpre encountered, and conditions proved unfa-vorabl© tox tho voyage, and it wa3
accordingly postponed. y ^ «

^J0 eatnefite Xnjstitutton of 5imast)iufltan.
The Carnegie Institution of Washington was founded by Mr. Andrew Carnegie, January 28,
1902. when he gave to a board of trustees $10, 000.000, in registered bonds, yielding 5 per cent, annual
interest. In general terms, lie stated that his purpose was to "found in the City of Washington an
institution wliicti, with the co-operation of institutions now or hereafter established, the^re or else-
wl»ere,shall in the broadest and most liberal manner encourage investigation, research anndpcovery,
show the application of knowledge to the improvement of mankind, and provide such buiWIng.s, laD-
oratories, books, and apparatus as may be needed." , , ^. ^ ^ t
Bv an act of Congress, approved April 28, 1904. the in.stitution was placed under the control of a
board of twenty-four rrustees. all of whom had been members of the original board referred to above.
The Trustees meet annnallv, and during the intervals between such meetings the afTairs of the
Institut'cn are conducted by an Executive Committee, cho.sen by and from the Board of Trustees,
acting through the President of the Institution as chief executive officer. „ , .

NOTABIxE BOOKS OF THE YEAR.
Social, political and financial unrest was the prevailing note of the year, as shown
by riots in Russia; bj"^ the growing ascendency of the labor element in the English Parlia-
ment, as well as by the oulspoken protest against the veto power of the House of Lords;
by anti-Oriental outbreaks In America, and in the United ^?tates by the systematic and
determined efforts of the Government, following the lead of President Roosevelt, to curb
the power of combinations of capital. Political house-cleaning also took place in some of
our cities. The Hague Peace Conference, so large in promise, proved only a school for
the amenities of war. From its historical significance the Jamestown Exposition was of
more than local interest. Ajnerican literary history recorded the celoV^rations of Long-
fellow and Whjttier centenaries. The year's output of books, many of them reflecting these
various intei-ests, numbered about 7,000 pew works and new editions.
FICTION.
From a publisher's viewpoint the successes of the year included 'Tho Port of Missing
Men," by Meiedith Nicholson (a tale of mystery and iuUigue centring in, a i)iot against
the Austrian throne); "The Brass Bow]." by Louis Joseph Vance, au/l '"Tiie Mayor's Wife,"
by Anna Katharine Green (detective stories); "The Princes.s Virginia," by the Wjliamsons
(a sprightly royal love story); "Beati-ix of Clare," by John Ke^d Bcott (a romance of
chivalry, wherein England's Richard JII. ig portrayed ia a new light); "Alio^-for-tiaort,"
by William De Morgan (a slow-moving record, reminiiJcent in style of TlKuktrny, of a.
delightful English family made up of strongly contrasted characters); "The tJUultle," by
Mrs. Burnett (study of international marriages); '"ITie Weavern," by Sir (iilbert Parker
(depicting an English Quaker set in authority in Cairo and offering <?ontraste(l pictures rjf
English and Oriental types); "The Far Horizon." by Lucas Maiet (a wf^ll-wrought por-
trayal of the interaction of two natures, ono that of , a retired Eiiglis.li banit clerk, the
other of a woman of tarnished past but comiK'lling charm); "The Helpmate," by May
Sinclair (analytical study of the revolt of a woman, narrow-minded, intolerantly reiigious?,
against a repented sin of her husband'B youth); "New Ciironlcles of Rebecca," by Kata
L>ouglas Wiggin (further episodes in the girlhood of "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm"); and
"The Malefactor." by E. P. Oppenhoim (sinister tale of revenge for unmerited disgrace):
Three books of lOOB should also be mentioned among the "big sellers" of 11H)7, vit!., "The
Lady of thie Decoration," by Frances I^itMe. "The Doctor." by Ralph C!onnor, and "Half
a Rogue," by Harold Mac(jrath. Undoubte<lly the most notable novel of the year from a
literary standpoint was Mrs. MTiarton's "The Fi-uit of the Tree," a clear-cut analysis,
perfect in execution, of the characters and motives of one m^n and two women, each
EPlfish and self-absoi-bed even in their love, interest centring in the ethical question
whether hopeless physical agony may not justify a merciful overdose of opium. Special
commendation should also bo given Galsworthy's satire on modern English society, "The
Country House;" Hewlett's "The Stooping Lady," the romance of a high-spirited English
girl set in the midst of early nineteenth-century Snglish politics; "Fraulein Schmidt and
Mr. Anstruther," by the author of "Elizabeth and Her Germ.an Garden" (a series of de-
lightful letters by a German girl revealing her disillusionment in a love affair and cheerful
readjustment to a narrow life); Elizabeth Robins' "The Convert," based on the recent
woman's suffrage agitation in England. Notice should also be made of translations of
Fogazzaro's "The Sinner," completing his "Trilogy of Ronie," and "The Woman," a
studv of an educated, undisciplined Italian woman. Recent works of well-known novelists
included Howells' "Through the Eye of the Needle" (a study of Altriiria), "The Whirl-
wind," another Dartmoor tragedy bv Phllpotts, Quiller-Couch's "Mirjor Vigourei^x. " the
Castles' "My Merry Rockhurst," Anthony Hope's "Helena's Path," Crawford's Arethusa,"
and Haggard's "Margaret."
National and local questions bulked large in the y£>ar's fiction. Wealth in the maKing
and in its effects is the background of David Graham Phillips' "The Second Gene-ration,"
Basil King's "The Giant's Strength." and Corbin's "The Cave Man." while Mrs. Steel's
"A Sovereign Remedv" is an English presentation of the power of monej'. "Sampson
Rock of Wall Street"" by Lefevre, and "Friday the Thirteenth." by Thomas Lawson.
protest against stock market methods; and David Graham Phillips' "Light-Fingered
Gentry" depicts the inner workings of insurance companies. Love, finance, and politics
are mingled Jn Albert Payson Terhune'B "Caleb Conover, RailToadrr." Various aspects of
the labor . problem in our large cities were treated in "The Cage," by Charlotte Teller;
"The Spirit of Labor." by Ilutchins Hapgood; "A King in Rags," by Cleveland Moffet;
"Under the Harrow," by Ellis Meredith, and "The Crucible" (temptations of working
girls), by Mark Lee Luther, the last three laid in New York. Railroad financiering and
building enter into Francis Lynde's "Empire Builders," and Parah P. Carr's "The Iron
"^'ay;" the wonders of electricity are depicted in Stringer's "Phantom Wires;" and Standard
loss, and collections of short stories by Janvier, O. Henry, and Stewart Edward White.
"Patty of the Palms." by Adam C. Haeselbarth, deals with "benevolent assimilation^ in

the Faculty," by Anna C. Ray, are pictures of American university life. Chambers' "The
Younger Set" displays phases of New York smart society, as Dolf Wyllarde's "As Te
Have Sown" and Oppenheim's "A Lost Leader" picture the society of England. Husslan
conspiracy and persecution furnish the incidents for Marchmont's "In the Cause of Free-
dom," Oxenham's "The Lonff Road," Gorky's "Mother." and Gordon's "The Ferry of
Fate," while Coni-ad's "The Secret Agent" discloses anarchistic plots In London. Not
■to be omitted, though more difficult to classify, are Mason's "Running Water" (an
Alpine romance); Laughlin's "Felicity" (describing the making of an actress); Hlchens'
"Barbary Sheep" (exotic tale of the desert); George .Madden Martin's "Letitia" and Wil-
kinson's "The Silent Door" (two portrayals of child nature), and Mrs. De La Pasture's
"The Lonely Lady of Grosvenor Square" (English love story). Among many tales of
adventure may be singled out Ian Maclaren's historical tale, "Graham Of Claverhouse," the
last we shall have from his convincing pen.
BIOGRAPHY AND HISTORY,
Foremost among biographical works of the year was the long-awaited collection of
Queen Victoria's letters, edited by A. C. Benson and Viscount Esher, significant for their
revelation of the personality of the writer rather than for any political or historical
infoiiuation they convey. More important as literature, however, were Bielschowsky's
second volume on Goethe, Prof. Raleigh's restrained review of Shakespeai-e's life and
woik, Gosse's "Henrik Ibsen," and Frederic Harrison's "Tlie Creed of a Layman," being
in effect the history of the Positivist religion. Special merit was also discerned in
Wright's critical study of Walter Pater from a new viewpoint; Tilley's "Rabelais," Boult-
Ing's "Tasso," Dodge's "The Real Sir Richard Burton," Chesterton's "George Bernard
Shaw," and Ragg's "Dante," while American literature was represented in Woodberry's
"Emerson," Bliss Perry's "WTiittier," Traubel's "With Walt Whitman in Camden" (vols.
1 and 2), and Norton's "Longfellow." American biography reflecting the conflicts and
triumphs of the past half century was especially noteworthy. Carl Schurz's "Reminis-
cences;" "The Life and Letters of Edwin Lav/rence Godkin," edited by Rollo Ogden, and
General Wilson's "Life of Charles A. Dana" exhibit three men who left their impress on
national affairs; and Civil War history, military and political, is found in Ol>erhoitzer's
"Jay Cooke, Financier of the Civil War," General Alexander's "Military Memoirs of a
Confederate," General Eaton's "Grant, Lincoln, and the Freedmen," General Howard's
"Autobiography," Booker Washington's "Frederick Douglass," and in the seven works on
Lincoln, notably those by David H. Bates and Ida Tarbell. Wister's "Seven Ages of
Washington," Morgan's "The True Patrick Henry," Bacon's "Henry Hudson," Lewis'
Andrew Jackson;" "John Harvard and His Times," by H. C. Shelley, and many books
on Roosevelt, including those by Morgan, Douglas, and Burroughs, are creditable studies
of dissimilar characters. Delightful glimpses €>f French life and society were afforded
in the "Memoirs of the Comtesse de Boigne" (Napoleonic days), and in Helen Clergue's
"The Salon" (eighteenth century); while Dumas' "Memoii's" (vol. 1), Victor Hugo's "Intel-
lectual Autobiography," McCabe's "Talleyrand." Segur's "Julie de Lespinasse," Gribble's
"Madame de Stael," as well as the several books on Napoleon, including those by Browning,
Lenz, Nicolay, Wheeler and Dodge and others on the Empress Eugenie presented aspects
of the men and women who variously influenced the literature and history of France.
The world of art oi the last half century was mirrored in the memoirs of the two actresses
Berrvhardt and Ristori. in the life of Antoinette Sterling, written by her son, in the
"Reminiscences" of Walter Crane, the artist, and in Miss Cary's biographies of Whistler
and William Blake, as well as in Symons' "Blake.'*
Works of history included the new volume on "The Restoration" in the "Cambridge
Modern History" planned by Lord Acton, the first two volumes in Reich's "General His-
tory of Western Mankind," Paterson's ."The Nemesis of Nations,'", and "The Order of the
Cincinnati in France," by Asa Bird Gai'diner, Secretary-General of the Cincinnati (a sump-
tuous volume, shedding light on an interesting phase in the history of this illustrious
American society*; also tVvO volumes added to Hunt and Poole's "Political History of
England," and Pollard's "Factors in Modern fEnglishl History." England and heir
colonial policy, especially in relation to America in the eighteenth century, were treated
by Miss Marks and George L. Beer, and colonial America and Elizabethan ' England by
Sidney Lee in "The Call of the West." Among the eighty odd works on United States
history may be mentioned several new volumes in Hart's "American Nation" and Avery's
"History," Trevelyan's "American Revolution" (part 3), J. H. Smith's "Our Struggle for
the Fourteenth Colony," and added volumes to Doyle's and Osgood's works on the American
colonies. General Schaff's "I'he Spirit of Old West Point," Captain Mahan's "From Sail
to Steam," and Spears' "American Navy" summed up our military and naval history,
while "The White House," by Esther Singleton, is a social history of the home of our
Presidents. Oi local interest to New Yorkers was Dr. Peters' "Annals of St. Michael's."
and "The City College" history, edited by Mosenthal and Home. Other special peoples
and lands were treated in Lea's "Inquisition in Spain," Curtin's "The Mongols." Hano-
taux' "Contemporary France" (vol. 3), Clarke's "Modei-n Spain," Besant's "MediaevaA
London" (vol. 2», and Colquhoun's "The Whirlpool ^of Europe" (Austria-Hungary). There
were about forty books on Japan and the Far East, including those by Griffis, Miyakawa,
Weale, Cotes, Sakurai and the anonymous record "As the Hague Ordains;" ten on Russia,
two on Mexico, by Winter and Martin; several on Latin-American republics, including
Crichfield's, and a dozen on Jamestown and the Exposition.
, . POLITICAL AND SOCIAL.
Politics and the related questions of finance and social conditions found diverse expres-
eion in the season's books. The principles and machinery of American Government were
treated in Holt's "Civic Relations," Reinseh's "American Legislatures," Ten Eyck's "Gov-
ernment by the People," J. Allen Smith's "The Spirit of the American Government," and
by the Japanese Miyakawa; while Secretary Root lectured on "The Citizen's Part in Gov-
ernment," Dr. Butler discussed the theory of Democracy, Shaw examined the political
problems peculiar to American development, and Coolidge studied the International position
of "The United States as a World Power." En-gland's system of government was explained
by A. L. Lowell, contrasted with which was Lloyd's "A Sovereign People" (working of
the Swiss Democracy). Colonial administration was reviewed in Alleyne Ireland's "Re-
port" (vols. 1 and 2, devoted to Burma), and Munro's "The Seigniorial System in Canada,"
as well as in many descriptive books oa the Far East. Th© vital problems of city govern-
526 Literature in 1901.
ment found general treatment by Pairlie, with specialized work.s by W. B. Mumo on
"Jiluropean Cities," by Howe on "The Britiali City," and by Gomme on London; w hH»
many-sided opinlona. both English and Ameiioan, on the burning question of eovernnient
and municipal ownership of public utilities were presented by Paterson, Lubbock, Porter,
I'ond, Darwin, Meyer, and in the papers of ihe American Academy of Political and Social
Science. Pertinent to The lligue Conference wert- Jones and Bellot's "Commerce in War"
and Captain Mahan's "Some Nt-glectt^d Aspects of W'ai."
Economics in general were consideied by John B. Clark, BoUe, and Davenport, and in
Hutchinson's "The Limit of Wealth," an ingenious working out of a supposititious system
for the distribution of wealth; and there were careful studies of various questions of
finance — credit, exchange, interest— by Kemmerer, Lawson, ex-Secretary Shaw. Sprague,
and Fisher, with others on taxation by West and Swan, and a volume of addresses edited
by Hull on banking and currency. The pros and cons of tariff systems were presented
by Welsford and Pigou, and the relation between the American tariff and the trusts by
IMerce, while "The Trust Movement in British Industry" was traced by Macrosty, and the
history of the greatest American industry, the United States Steel Corporation, recounted
by Casson. Chancellor Day's "The Raid on Prosperity" advocated tru&ts and condemned
recent Federal procedure against them. Railroad rate regulation in all its complexity was
the subject of much argument, notably by Calvert, Haines, Merritt. Parsons, Albertson,
Prentice and Serrell. Technical reports on our railways were contributed by McPherson,
and in the official German report by Hoff and Schwabach. Clive Day wrote a compre-
hensive "History of Commerce;" Hendricks disclosed the secrets of life insurance, and
Dunning debated the question of ship subsidies.
The literature of sociology each year gives evidence of a deepening interest in prob-
lems of social betterment. Among many excellent treatises on its methods and results may
be mentioned Small's "Adam Smith and Modern Sociology." Forrest's "The Development
of Western Civilization" (study of social evolution); Flinders-Petrie's "Janus in Modern
Life" (survey of modern political-social conditions), Chesterton-Hill's "Heredity and
Selection in Sociology," Baker's "American Problems," "Patten's The New Basis of
Civilization." Hadley's "Standards of Public Morality." Trine's "In the Fire of the
Heart," and Bailey's statistical study; while Bussell, Shailer Mathews, and Rauschen-
busoh emphasized the relation of Christianity to social progress. Subsititutes for the evils
of war were suggested by Jane Addams in "Newer Ideals of Peace;" social betterment
schemes in Great Britain described by W. L. George, and the business of charity explained
by Allen in "Efficient Deniocracj%" Donaldson and Thomas devoted attention to the
position of woman and the influence of sex in human society. The relations between labor
and capital were the subject of Samuel G. Smith's "The Industrial Conflict." and the
problem of child labor that of Mrs. Van Vorst's "The Cry of the Children." with enlight-
ening studies of the English working classes contributed by Olive C. Malvery. Mrs. Hugh
Bell. M. Loane. and of the poor in England and America in Jack London's "The Ro?.ds."
L. B. More's "Wage Earners' Budgets" is a study of the cost of living in New York City.
Alien peoples were studied in Commons' "Races and Immigrants in America," Basker-
Tille's "The Polish Jew," Fynn's "The American Indian," and in works on the negro by
Dowd, Finot, Washington, and DuBois, whereas "The Race Question in Canada" was
treated by Siegfried and "The Asiatic Danger in the Colonies" by Neame. Socialism wa.s
the subject of more than twentv-five books, notably Mallock's, Le Rossignol's, and Kro-
potkin's, and also Podmore's "Life of Robert Owen" and Russell's "The Uptising of the
Many" (history of co-operatiai). Sinclair's "The Industrial Republic" is a forecast of
American communism. >
_; LITERATURE.
Foremost among books in this field was the initial volume of the fourteen-volume
"Cambridge Historv of English Literature," edited by Ward and Waller, the volume cov-
ering the period "From the Beginnings to the Cycles of Romance." Other studies of
English literature included Jusserand's "Literary History" (vol. 2). Nicoll and Seccombe s
"Historv of English Literature." Chandler's "Literature of Roguery," Gummere s "The
Popular' Ballad," and Omond's "English Metrists." I^liee wrote a history of comparative
literature; Newmarch directed attention to "Poetry and Progress in Russia;" Prof. Wood-
bury interpreted certain "Great Writers," and enlarged on "The Appreciation of Litera-
ture," and Stopford A. Brooke contributed "Studies in Poetry." Ibsen was interpreted by
Jennette Lee and Bjorkman; George Meredith, by Trevelyan and Bailey; "Paradise Lost,
by Marianna Woodhull; "The Arthur of the English Poets," by Maynadier. and Shake-
speare's art examined by Moulton, Canning, Baker, and Werder. Delightful examples of
the rare art of essay writing can be accredited to A. C. Benson. Lucas, Maeterlinck, and
Brander Matthews. In the realm of drama may be mentioned Mackaye's "Sappho and
Phaon," Johnston's "Goddess of Reason," and Shaw's new plays. The erotic poems of
Yietftck aroused much unprofitable and indiscriminating discussion. Among books of
reference there were the first volume of the "Catholic Encyclopaedia." Lockwood s 'Lex-
icon to the English Poetical Works of John Milton," and useful bibliographies of Oliver
AVendell Holmes. Lincoln, and of Christology. The increase of works on Esperanto and
other "world languages" may be noted.
MISCELLANEOUS. , ., ,
The year's travel books numbered Peary's "Nearest the Pole;" two works on Ala.sKa
by Cook and Dunn; one on Labrador by Wallace: two on the Congo by Starr and Richard

(From Cfiisus Uiilletiu Is'o. 70.)
Thk total number of estahllshmeuts Ifi this iudustry in ld05was 2G,422, a number lar^rthan
was reported forany other iiidnsirj'.
'J'lie capital required ill lin)5 to oouduct the printing and publishing business was 8385,008, 004,
It was ai)proximatel y double tliat required in 1890, and it was doubtless due to a consiaorai)lb degree
to mechanical changes which liave taken iilucein this industry during the iVast ten or lilteeu yeui-s.
The Lutal value of pnxluctfj repmted in 1905 was $4lH>,00l,357.
()[ the total number of establishments in the entire industry, about one-third were excliisively
book and jolj establishments, one-sixth exclusively newspaper and periodical estaidishinents, and
over one-half werecombination establishments— that is, prodU(;ihg botll booic and job printing and
newspapei"S and periodicfds. In value of products the exclusive establishments were practically
on eycn leims, the amount reported for book and job printing being $180, 759, 503 and for news-
papers and periodicals, $184. 736,800 ; but ill the combination establishment the value of newspaper
and periodical products greatly outweighed the value of book: and job printing. Theentire value of
products distributed between the two general classes Vvas ^233,230, 842 fol' book and job pribtlug and
$250,816,282 for newspapers and jieriodicals.
BOOK ANtt JOB PRINTING.
, The aI>solnte increase in value of book and Job jiroducts during the five-year period was unpre-
cedented. From 1880 to 1890 it was approximately $4,500,000; from 1890tolOOO, $28 , 000, OtX) ;
and during the half decade from 1900 to 1905, $62,000,000. At this rate the value of products will
double in 1910 as compared with 1900.
Without using specific cases for purposes of illustrationit is difficult to appreciate the ma^rnitude
of nmiiy orders for ordinary commercial printing, editions of hundreds of thousaiuls of pamphlets
and.even of many millions being not infrequently produced by the larger Job establishnaeuts in New
York, ChicagOi and other centres of trade. Job printing has been materially benefited by ilie exten-
sion of rural free delivery, which has greatly stimulated catalogue and circuliar production.
Moreover there are many new requirements for miscellaneous printing. Tlie ti-ansfer systertl, for
example, requiring more than 3,000,000.000 transfer slips annuallj' for the trolley systems of the
Unifeu States, represents approximately 30,000,000 printed sheets of jmper.
The teleiihone, now extended to all parts of the United .States, depends upon the subscriber's
book.which^saniiiflispeusable adjunct of each in.strumeut. Of these books the three cities having
"more than 1,000,000 inhabitants— New York, Ch'eas:o, and Philadelphia— required approximately
1,400,000 copies ill 1905, coniainlngmore than 2,500,000 pounds of paper and requiring presswork
aergregating nearly 42.000.000 impressions, equivalent to the work of one cylinder press turning ouc
10,000 inipres-ions per day for fourteen j-^eats of \vorkingdays.
The aggregate number of copies of all newsimpers aud periodicals ifi the United States published
during the census year 1905 W^s lt),325,14o,l83.
NE\VSPa!pERS A^D PERtODICAtS.
The valiie of products of newspapers and perindicals arises from two sources of income-^obscrip-
tionsand sales, and advertising. At the Census of 1880 the assets devi'red from Rubsciiptions and
sales exceeded those from advertising by almost $11 ,000.000^ or approximately one-fourth. In 1890
tlie products of both branches were of almost equal value, subscriptions and sales, however, being
greater by $1,000,000. At the Census of 1900 advertising look the lead, with an excess Of nearly
?rl6, OOO.OOO. Since 1900 this lead has been further' iuoreased, and ih 1905 amounted tb neiaWy
!j«4,000.()00. . . •
In 1880 the total value of advertising was eqtiivalent to the expenditure of 78 cents per capita:
inlB90, $1.13; in 1900, $1.26; and 19U6, $1.79, on the basis of estimated population Jnnel, 1904.
The ])er capita value of advertising thus more than doubled from 1B80 to 1905. On the oHier hand,
tlie i>er capita value of subscriptions aud sales increased much less rapidly, rising from 99 cents in
1880 to $1.37 in 1905. .
Aw attempt was made at this census to report separately the Sunday issue of daily papers, but was
found to be impracticiable. It was found, however, that thie Sunclay edition of dailies in 1905
amounted to 11,539,021 copies per issue^ contributed by 456 papers, as comjKired with a total daily
circulation per issue of 21,079,130. .
The airgregate circulation of weekly papers per issue was S7, 732, 037 in 1905.
In 1905 tiie aeffiesrate circhlation oF the nvonthly onstripped tl^at of eN'et-y other class and
amounted to 64,306,155 per issue, almost half the total circuhulon pei-igsueof uUeliassesof publ?-
cations in the United States.
(From Census Bulletin No. SO.)
At the cejVsUspf manufactures taken in 1905 the reported value of the "products of this industry
was $188,715,189. Tlieindust'ry gave eniploymenl to 65,^64 wage- eairners, and the capital invested

THE INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGE.
The following statement regarding ICsperauto has been prepared by the New York Ksperanto
Societv. and from the "Esperanto Key "
Ksperanto is an artificial language invented hy the Russian Dr L. L. Zamenhof, of Warsaw,
PolaMd. It has o'llv one object in view, namely, to serve as an international auxiliary language; it is
not in theleast intended to replace the national languages. The first book in the new language was
published in 1887.
The Esperanto words are mostl.y of Latin, but to some extent aLso of Anglo-German origin, so that
at the first glance Esperanto has the familiar appearance of a Roman language.
The great success of Esperanto, which is now known and stuflied all over the world, is chiefly due
to the facility with which it may be mastered. The pronunciation is strictly phonetic, making the
study of spelling unnecessary. Thegrainmar does not admit of any exceptions to the rides, and is so
logical and simple that it niaybe learned completely in a few hours b\' an.v person who is familiar
with the grammar of his mother tongue. The vocabulary consists of about 2, 500 rof)t words, a large
majority of which is known to anyone whose language contains a great number of Latin roots— for
instance, English.
Jn spite of this small number of rootwords Esperanto hasheen made rich in words jmd expressions
by the adoption of certain alhxes and certain methods of word combination. By these simple and
easy means a considerable vocabulary may be obtained. Esperanto is a well-sounding language
when spoken.
The merits of Esperanto having been recognized by such eminent authorities as Prof. Max :m i"iller.
Count L. Tolstoi and Sir William Ramsay, it has quietly and without ostentation conquered all
obstacles, and spread triumphantiv over the whole world. Its grammar has been translated into .some
28 languages and dialects, and nearly 30 monthly journals are devoted to its propjiganda.
While in Canada, Mexico and South America Esperanto has been zealously studied lor many
years, it was almost nnknown in the Uidted States until 1905. In the begiiniing of that year the first
societv for thestudy and propagation of Esperanto was formed in Boston. Mass., and in the following
•Iidy the New York" Esperanto Society was founded. Through the efforts of these two societies and
others, which had since been commenced in Philadelphia and other parts of this country, Esperanto
spread rapidly. An American Esperanto Association has been founded, and two Esperanto montlily
magazines are published: the Amerika EsperantUto and the Anwrlccu), Ksoeranto Journal, in Okla-
homa City, Okla., and Boston, Mass., respectively.
■ Esperanto olters an immediate advantage by laying open to the possessor the whole world. It
breaksdown thebarriers of speech, and procures for one in every land a multitude of persons who
can understand one's language and are ready to exchange ideas and service \\ith him.
If one wishes to correspond with people of different nations, with whose languages he is notcon-
versant, forthe purposes of commerce, science, informationoramusement— this can be accomplished
easily by the helpof Esperanto, Where travellers of diHerentnations may only with difficulty under-
stand oiie another by means of a few written F.atin words— the pronunciation of Ijatin being different
in differentuations— with Esperanto they would be able to speak together and to help one another.

thus: "To place those following peacelul vocations who have been injured in heroic effort to save
hU'nan life, in somewhat better positions pecuniarily than before, until able to work again. Incase
oi' death, the widow and children or other deiendents are to be provided foruntil she r-^marries, and
tli3 cUil-iren until thev reach a .self-supporting age. For exceptional children, exceptional grants
rn i.v hi made for exceptional education. Grants of sums of money may also be made to heroes or
heroines as the commission thinks advisable— each case to be judged on its merits."
- T!ie find applies only to acts performed within the United States of America, the Dominion of
Canada, the Colony of Newfoundland, and the waters thereof, and such acts must have been per-
form^ Ion or after Anril 15, 1904.

(Coinpilt-d by A. Emerson Palmer, Secretary df the IJoanl itf Education.)
Public education in New York City began with the founding of the Free School Society
(aftei 1820 the I'ublic School Societyl in Ison. The soclt ty began in a sinall way, depending
upon private subscripiions, but soon rec-ived aiil from the city. It gradually expanded, and
unrt.il 1S42 had control of the moneys supplied for educational purposes by the city and the
common school fund of the State. This condition oi: affairs was unique. The society, being
under the direction of liia'h-niinded citizens, en.ioyed a lai-gc decree of public confidence. So
anonialouG a system could not last, howe\er, and by an act ni the Legislature. i)assed in
1^4::, the Boaid of Education was established. The Public School Socitty continued to con-
duot its schools until l.Soo, wiien, by mutual consent, they wcre al! taken over by the Doard.
'i'he society at that time liad more than a hundred scnools; the value of the property it
transferred to the city was estimated at $4."iU.0U0. and during its existence it educated some
l,OU,00t) children. - The' Board of Education was an elective body from 1S42 to isTl, the mem-
bers being chosen first by wards and from ISGo by school districts: since 1871 they have
been appointed by the Mayor. In Brooklyn a Board of Education was created in 1n4o; the
members were chosen by the Common Council until 1862, in which year the appointing power
was vested in the Mayor. When consolidation took effect, in 18!»8, separate school boards
were provided for the several boroughs (Manhattan and the Bronx being united), with a
central Board of Education (a delegated body) having charge of the finances, the erection
and repair of buildings, the acquiring of sites, the purchase and disti-ibution of supplies,
etc. This system was dropped on the revision of the Charter in 1!)U1, and since l!t02 there
has been one Board of Education for the city. It consists of forty-six members — twenty-two
for Manhattan, fourteen for Brooklyn, four each for the Bronx and Queens, and two for
Richmond. Th»ir term of office is five years.
The Board of Superintendents, consisting of the city superintendent of schools and
eight associate superintendents, has large powers in the nomination, promotion, and trans-
fer of teachers, the recommendation of text-books ana scholastic supplies, the determina-
tion of courses of study, the fixing of qualifications for teachers' licenses, etc. Its
important acts require the approval of the. Board of Education. There are twenty-six
district superintendents, whose duties are to visit schools and observe the work of teachers.
The Board of Examiners (consisting of the city superintendent and four examiners) con-
ducts all examinations for would-be teachers, and prepares eligible lists. The school super-'
intendents and examiners, as well as the supervisor of free lectures, the sui>erintendent of
school buildings, and the superintendent of school supplies (whose duties are indicated by
their titles), have terms of six years eacit. The Board of Education appoints all these offi-
cials, and also a secretary and auditor, having no fixed term. Principals and teachers are
appointed by the Board of Edtication on the nomination of the Board of Superintendents.
The merit system is in full operation, and teachers are appointed in order of standing.
Beginners are on probation for three years, their licenses being renewable from year tc
year; when permanently licensed, their tenure is assin-ed, and they cannot be removed
except on charges. New teachers are appointed only after pursuing a training school course.
The budget appropriation of the Department of' Education for 11)07 was $24,'.Jir),!)2S.]6, of
which $19,S4."'),S70.58 constituted the general school fund (for teachers' salaries). For IOCS'
the Board has asked $.31. 641. .326. 75. The bulk of the large increase is due to a proposed
increase in the salaries of many teachers. A woman teacher now enters the system at $(;00
a year, fnd advances, with yearly increments of $40, to $1,240. In the upper grades the
maximum salaries are $1,320 and $1,440. Under the proposed schedule the beginning salary
will be $720. the annual increment $48. and the maximtmi $1,440. This applies to the great
majority of teachers in elementary schools. Men teachers in these schools now start at $000
and go up to .$2,400. Men principals of elementary schools receive $.3,500, and .women prin-
cipaJs $2,500. In high schools the salaries for women range from $700 to $2..500, and for
men from $000 to $3,000. Principals of high schools are paid $5,000, and $5.m)0 is the salary
of district superintendents and examiners. Associate superintendents receive $6,500. The
salary of the city superintendent is $10,000. The number of elementary schools is 400 — 17!>
in Manhattan, 1.52 in Brooklyn, 43 in the Bronx, 82 in Queens, and 34 in Richmond. The
number of high schools" is fourteen, besides six high school departments in elementary
.school buildings in Queens. There are also three training schools for teachers and tvv^o
truant schools. In the elementary schools there are 1.243 men and 12.766 women teachers;*
in high schools, .520 men and 5.56 women. In the evening schools (high and elementary)'
there az'e 1,186 men and 8.33 women teachers. Seventy-seven attendance officers enforce the
Compulsory Education law. The latest available figures show the attendance as follows:

Cecil Rhodks, statesman, who died at Cape Town, South Africa, liaraJi 2«5, 1902, directed in
his will dated July 1, 1899, that a part of his fortune, estimated at $1Q, 0^0,000, slioiikl he applied to
the creation of a fund for the support of a certain number of sclioiarships covering a three- yeitr-s
course at the University of Qjfqrd. lie directed that tbg se.lectio.li p| the recipients of this gift should
be made two fr )m each Slate and Territory or tlie United 'States, or one hundred iu all, fifteen from
Germany and from one iq nine froiu each of the British Colonies. The scholarships are awarded Qn
marks only, three- tenths' w'iiereof shall be given to a candidate Idc his "Literary and Schohustic''
altainments, the remainder being for his love of outdoor athletics and siiprts,. foe strong, ma'nl.v
qnalltiessuch t>.s courage, generosity and kindness, and for high mpiial fch^japteo^ and especllilly for
ambition to serve andlead in large public afiairs. ,..,--
The agencies for flnal selection V;iry a good deal. Scholars from Cape Colojiy are chosen by the
individual scho;)ls'to Vvhich tlie sclioiarships are (^specially assigned. 'Tp .several of tJie Canadian
provinces and in a lew States of the Americstn Unjoiiit has been decidpd'thab an appointment shall
ne made in rotation by the leading uiiiver.sities. under tin's system the field of selection each yt-aris
somewhat narrowed, but it is possible to carry out more closelythau otherwise the suggestions made
by IVIr. Rhodes, who appears to liave had iii ids mind selection by ^ siifgle. inslitntibn. The five
German students for wliom annual provision isniade are nominated, acpording to the terms of Mio
will, by the E.m'peror himself. In the great majority of the States of the Uniou. in outlying'colppieB
like Bermuda, Jamaica and Newfoundland, in lour iiroVinces df Canada, \\\ I^ew Zealfqid auQ thfe
States of Aiisti-alia, the final choice of the sCliolar in left in the hands of a Conmiittee of Selection,.
Gre^t care has been taken ia the constitution of tlicse committees, as it has heen ielfthao on the
wise and impartial exercise of their judgment depends more titan upon anything else the full
success of the scheme. ' ' . •;, ,.
In rnost of the States thf^ selection is made hy & committee appointed by representatiyes ol the
colleges; in some tlie appointments a?-e made in rotation by tlie leading colleges.
The conditions regulating the award of sch(^larships in the Americau States provide that the
candidates' shall" have satTsfactbrlly completed the work of at least two years in somecolleye of liberal
arts and sciences. Kxceut uqc^ef e:^trrtpftiii]i)ry cij-pvimstfvupps {^he Vipper ago Jiipit must be twenty- four
years at the time of entering upon the scholarship &t rixfoid I ToBe eligible the candidate must be a

UNITED CHAPTERS OF PHI BETA KAPPA.
The Phi Beta Kappa Society was founded at William and Mary College, Williamsburg, Va. ,
Decembers, 1776. and now consists of 71 chapters located in as many of the leading colleges and
universities in the land. The total living membership is nearly 12,000. Until 1883 the growth of
theSociety was comparatively slow, but since the organization of the United Chapters the develojv
ment has been rapid, 47 chapters having been organized. At the ninth trieimial council, held Sep-
tember 12, 1907, at William and Mary College, eight charters wore granted, as follows: Virginia,
Illinois, Louisiana, Illinois and Oiiio Wesleyan Universities, and Oberlin, Iowa and Franklin and
Marshall Colleges. Women were first admitted in 1875, and the first cliarter to a woman's colhge,
Va.ssar, was granted in 1898. Since then S irth, W.'llcsley, Mt. llolj'okc and the Woman's College
of Baltimore have received charters. At the recent Council President IMary I). Woolle.v. of Mt.
Holvoke, was chosen to tne Senate, the first woniiui to be ilms honored. The oflicers for the term,

jFountJations*
Established by consolidation of "Tlie Trusioes of the Astor Library," ''TLe Trusteefi of the
'Lenox Library," and "Tlie Tildeu Trust,' ' Mi-.j-a^, 1895, twenty-one Truhitees being chosen Irom the
Trustees of these corporations. The agreement of consolidation provided for tlie establishment and
maintenance of a free public library and reading-room in the City of JSew York, with such branches
as niierht be deemed advisable for the continued promotion oi the objects and purposes of these
several corporations.
The Trustees soon after the consolidation m 1895 determined to pnrfnie a)iberaf pollcj' and to
create a ^reat library system not only for the nse of scholars, but for the people. The best perrnanent
siteforthefutnreerreat library was considered to be in Bryant Park, on Fifth Aveinie. between Fortieth
and Forti'-second Htrt'et-s, on the site of the reservoh, which had become ob.'jolete and was practically
unused. On March 25, 189i), the Trn^tees ma<le a formal address to the INfayor asKing aid from the
city in securing' the site of the reservoir, and in May, 1896, the Legislature passed a law authorising
the removal of the reservoir and the lease of the land to the Library. Oii May 19. 1897. another act
was passed providing for the construction by the city of a library building on 'the reservoir site, and
forits lease to the Library, which act wa.** amen<le«l in 1900,j(n)OTinp lh« limit of cost. On Novembei
10 the architects were selected for the new btiildhif? and on Decen)ber 1 the plans were approved
by the city. The style of architecture is Renaissance and the material ustd is white marble.
The building fronts on Fifth Avemie. lookinp east. 'J'he greatest projection of the main facade
of the building Is seventy- live feet back of the Fifth Avenue building line. ■ It is intended to mft"kea
terrace out of this seventy-five feet of foreground, serving as a grand approach to the main entrnnce.
The terrace will be 465 feet long. There will be a hallway in the centre of the building eighty feet
long and forty feet wide. The staircases which lead to the second and third tioorswill be bl stone,
twelve feet wide. The arches of the vestihule are thirty-five feet high and fifteen feet wide. Tlie en-
trance to the stairs ana the elevators will be found on the Fortieth .Street side. The rooms for the
circulation of books and thechildren's roinn will be on the basement floor, Forty-second Street side;
on this floor will be also theroomsfor newspapers, the biudingand printingdepariments; the first floor
willcoutain the olTices of the business superintendent. sni)erinfendent of cinulation, patents, and
periodicals leatling- rooms, and exhibition roon>s; on tlie second floor will be the Trustees' room, the
office of the Director, lecture and .issend)ly rooms, c«\taloguing and accession departments, and
various special reading-rooms, the third floor will contain the large gelieral reading-rooms, the
public catalogue, si>ecial reading-r^oms for mannscripts, .Americana, etc., the smart books and
pictures, the print room, etc. There will be about 340 feet'ol ground between the west elevation of
the building and the present park. The design of the Iniilding will he moinnnental in character,
with classical proportions. After delajs, owh'g to the inaVrilitvof the citv tnapprnpnate funds for
the work, the removal of the reservoir "was bosun on June 6, 1890. The entire buildins was under
roof at the end of November, 1906.
On March 12,1901, Mr. Andrew Carneg/e ofTetea lo give $5,200,000 to the city for the con-
struction and equipment of free circulating lihrarips upon condition that tl»e city should provide the
land and agree to maintain the libraries when built. This communication was submitted to the
Mayor on March 15. and on April 26 an act was passed authorizing acceptance of the gift by the
city upon the terms imposed by Mr. Caniegie. An agreement with the city was executed on July
17, the Library acting as agent for Mr. Carnegie, under VNhich forty-two buildings are lobe erected
in Manhattan, the Bronx, and llichmond (later increased to fifty), on sites to be selected and pur-
chased by the ciiy with the app rural of the J^ibrary. the buildings to be leased to the Librae and
to be under its control. The city agrees to provide adequate yearly maintenance. 10 per cent, or the
cost of each building being agreed upon as a minimum.
On November 7. 1901, an agreement was made with three firms of architects .n iSew ^ork to
prepare plans and specifications for these branch libraries. On June 6, 1902, an issue of bonds for
$250,000 was authorized for purchase of sites. The first Carnegie building, known as the Yorkville
branch, was opened December 13, 1902, at 222 East Seventy-ninth Street; the s<^coud. providing a
new home for the Chatham Square branch, was opened November 2,1903, at 31 Fast Broadway.
Twenty-nine other sites have been acquired under the contract, and building operations are under
way. The Trustees of the Library are .

The Institution at Washington, D. C, was established by statute in 1S46, under the
terms of the will of James Smithson, who bequeathed his fortune in 1826 to the United
States for the "increase and diffusion of knowledge among men." From the income of
the fund a building, known as the Smithsonian Building, was erected on land given by
the United States. The Institution is legally an establishment having as its members the
President of the United States, the Vice-President, the Chief Justice, and the President's
Cabinet. It is governed by a Board of Regents consisting of the Vice-President, the
Chief Justice, three members of the United States Senate, three members of the House of
Representatives, and six citizens of the United States appointed by joint resolution of
Congress. It is under the immediate direction of the Secretary of the Siiiithsonian Institu-
tion, who is the executive officer of the Board and the director of the Institution's
activities.
For the increase of knowledge, the Insbitutlon aids investlgatoi'S by making grant!»
for research and exploration, supplying books, ai)paratus, laboratory accommodations, etc.
It occasionally provides for lectures, which are published. It has initiated numerous
soientific projects of national importance, some of which have been turned over to the
Government and resulted in the creation of independent Government bureaus. It advises
the Government in many matters of scientific importance, eapecially in those that have an
international aspect. It co-operates with scientific bodies of national Importance, like the
National Academy of Sciences, the American Association for the Advancement of Science,
the American Historical Association, etc. It issues three regular series of publications:
Annual Reports, containing papers of general interest intended to keep the ordinary reader
abreast of the progress of science; Contributions to Knowledge, the distinct feature of
which is that each memoir constitutes an original contribution to knowledge; Miscellaneous
Collections, which contain bibliographies, reports of expeditions, standard tables, and a
scientific quarterly. All these publications are distributed gratuitously to Important
libraries throughout the world.
THE IISrSTITUTION LIBRARY.
The Institution maintains a library in co-operation with the Library of Congress, which
numbers 250,000 volumes, and consists mainly of the transactions of learned societies and
soientific periodicals. While the body of the library is deposited in the Library of Congress
and accessible to all its readers, a working library is maintained at the Institution. Li^ts,
bibliographies, rules for cataloguing and library work have been published. It supports a
table at the Biological Station at Naples. All these and numerous other activities may be
carried on solely from the income of the Smithsonian fund. The Regents are empowered
to accept gifts without action of Congress, in furtherance of the purposes of the Institution,
and to administer trusts in accord therewith.
The parent Institution has the administrative charge of several branches which grew
out of its early activities and which are supported by Congressional appropriations. These
are the National Museum, including the National Gallery of Art; the International Ev-
change Ser\ice, the Bureau of American Ethnology, the National Zoological Park. th->
Astrophysical Observatory, and the Regional Bureau for the International Catalogue of
Scientific Literature.
THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM Is the depository of the national col-
lections. It is especially rich in the natural history, geology, paleontology, archaeology
and ethnology of America, and has unique collections of American history, as well as
many series relating to fine arts and the industrial arts. It is both an educational and a
research museum, and issues numerous technical and popular scientific publications. The
National Gallery of Art consists largely of the collections of etchings and engravings of
George P. Marsh, the collections of Chartes L. Freer, csntaining numerous paintings and
etchings by Whistler, and examples of Chinese and .Japanese art; the Harriet Lane John-
st(m collection, including a number of the greatest English portrait painters, and the
collection of William T. Evans, of fifty paintings, representing some of the best work
of American artists.
THE INTERNATIONAL EXCHANGES, carried on in accordance with the terms pf a
treaty entered into between the United States and various foreign nations, is for the free
interchange of Governmental and scientific publications between the Government of the
United States and foreign governments and institutions, and Investigators in the United
States and foreign lands. At present it has .")(".. :!1 4 correspondents, and since Its establisn-
ment over 2.7r.0.00O packages have been handled l>y it.
The Bureau of American Ethnology, a study of the North Amerlcaji Indian, the
Astrophysical Observatory for the investigation of solar phenomena, the National
Zoological Park at WashingtMDn, and the Regional Bureau for the collection and classifica-
tion of the natural and physical sciences, are also departments of the work of th«
Institution.

There are about 10. 0(M) local unions, with a monihersMip and following, including the children's
societies. of about half a uiillion. The W. V. T. U. has forty distinct departments of work, presided
over by as many women experts.iu the National Society, and in nearly every State. All the States in
the Re"public have laws requiring the study of scientilic temperance in the public schools, and all
these laws were secured by the \V. C. T. U. ; also the laws forbidding the sale of tobacco to minors.
The first police matrons and most industrial homes for girls were secured through the efforts of this
society, as were the refuges for erring women. Laws raising the age of consent and providing for
better protection for women and girls have been enacted by mauy Legislatures through the iu-
Huence of the Union.
The World's W. C. T. U. was founded through the influence of Frances R Willard in 1883, and
already has auxiliaries in more than fifty cocuitries and provinces. The white ribbon is the badge
ot all the \V. (". T. U. members, and is now a familiar emblem in ever.v civilized country.

Kach society is in some local church, and in no sense outside. It exists simpl.v to make the young
people loyal aiul efficient members of the Church of Christ. It is the Church training tlie youiif?. Its
motto is, "For Christ and the Church. " In November. 1907. there were 09,256 societies,
with a membership of 3, 4G2,S00, cliiedy in the United States and Canada, and in Australia. Great
Britain, China, India. .Tai>un, and in all missionar.v lands. It is found in about tlie same proportions
in all the crroat evang-elical denominations and in all their subdivisions.
The United Society is simply the bureau of information for all the societies, It prints the litera-
ture, supports one general secretary, and is the general headquarters of the work. It levies no taxes,
however, and assumes no aut-liority, but every society manages its own aftaira in its own way. It is
supported b.v the sales of its literature, badges, etc. 11; is man'aged by a board of trustees, representing
the great evangelical denominations, the President being Francis K. Clark, D. D. ,IiL.D.. the founder
of the society; General Seci'etary, Williaiu Shaw; Treasurer, Hiram K. Laihrop. The e.\ecutive
committee of the board of trustees meets quarterly to consult conceruiug the best interests of the

"The Brotherhood of St. Andrew is an organization of men in the Protestant Epi.scopal Church. Its
sole object is the spread of Chiist's kingdom among men. It works under two rules, known as (1) The
Rvileof Praj'er- To pravdailv for the spread of Christ's kingdom among men, especially young men,
and for God's blessing upon the labors of the Brotherhood, and (2) The Rule of Sei-vice: To make
at least one earnest olfort each week to lead some man nearer to Christ through His church. ' ' There
are now l.r>00 active chapters with a membership of about fifteen thousand men.
The Brotherhood idea has also taken root in Canada, and the Brotherhood of St. Andrew in the
Church of England in the Dominion of Canada has been formed, with four hundred chaptei-s and
tbirtv-eight hmidred men. A similar organization has Iieen foi'med in the Scottish I^piscopal
Church. In the W<>st Indies the-e is a membershlo of 1,000 men, and there is also a national
organization in Japan. June 12,1S96, the Brotherhood of St. Andrew in the Church of England was

The Order of the Daughters of the King was organized on Easter Evening, 1885. Itisdesiredby its
proinotei's that a careful distinction shall be made between the Daughters of the King and The King's
Daughters. This is the older society, and differs from The King's Daughters in many important
particulars. In the first place, it is more of an order than a societ}', and is distinctively Episcopal. Its
work is definite, and is for the spread of Christ's kingdom among young women," and the "active
support of the rector's plans in the parish in which the particular chapter may be located. ' ' Its badge
is a cross of silver, a Greek cross fleury, and its mottoes are " Magnanimeter Crucem Sustine" and
'* For His Sake. " Its colors are white and blue— white, the old royal color of Israel, and blue, the
color of the Virgin Mary, the " blessed daughter of Israel's King, the Mother of the Kmgof Kings.'
Its constitution is framed, as far as is possible, in the terms of that of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew,
the work of the two organizations being similar. The officers of the Council are: President, TsIt^. E.

The Order is an interdenominational, religious and philanthropic society, working locally in
Circles, County and City Unions, Chapters, State and National oii;anizatlous. Branches are estab-
lished in thirty-one States, and in eight Canadian provinces.
The objects of the Order are "the development of spiritnal life and the stimulation of
Christian activities. " Its membership is very large and extends all over the world. The Order has
established or supported several hundred institutions of diiierent kinds in different localities. The
badge is a small silver cross, which is also the corporate seal of the society.

The first National Convention of the Luther League of America was held at Pittsburgh, Pa.,
October 30 and 31, 1895. The League is a Lutheran organization, linking together the Lutheran
young people who are laboring for the good of the Church by means of many individual societies of
various names and styles of organization, each within its own immediate church.. The constitution
declares that its objects shall be "to encourage the formation of the j'oung people's societies in all
Lutheran congregations in America, to urge their affiliation with their respective State or Territorial
leagues, and with this league to stimulate the various young people's societies to greater Christian
activity and to foster the spirit of loyalty to the Church." The fundamental principles are
federation and co-operation. The aggregate enrolled membership of the various local organizations
represented in the national organization is over 100, 000. These are comprised in twentj'-five States,
fourteen of which already have permanent State organizations. The firet local organization adopting
the title of "The Luther League" was organized by delegates of six Lutheran Church societies in
the City of New York, April 19, 1888.

The Christian Science Publication Committee, for the State of New York, contributes the
following statement:
_ In June, 1906, the §2,000.000 extension of the Mother Church, the First Church of Christ
Scientist, in Boston, was dedicated. At the annual meeting, .Tune, 1907, an increase of 4,000 mem-
bers over the previous year was reported. The total membership, resident and nnn- resident, was
given at 43, 876. In the Christian Science Journal Directory for 1907, over 1,000 churches and
societies of this denomination were listed. The estimated membership of these branch churches is
approximately 40,000. There are many institutes for teaching Christian Science.and upward of
4.000 practitioners of Christian Science mind-healing. Organizations can now be found in almost
everj' city in the United States, and there are branches in Canada, NovaScotia, British Columbia,
Mexico, the Baliamas, British West Indies, the Hawaiian Islands, Cuba, Philippine Islands, Sand-
wich Islands, British Isles, France, Germany, Norway, Switzerland, Italy, Australia, New South
Wales, India. Ciiina, South Africa, and manj' other countries.
Magnificent new church buildmgs have recently been completed and dedicated in New York
City, Denver, Colo., and Concord, N. H.
All Christian Science churches, other than the Mother Church in Boston, are branches of that
church. In all of the.se the Sunday services are uniform, and consist of correlative passages rend
from the Bible and the Christian Science text-book, "Science and Health, with Key to tiie Scrip-
tures," by Mary Baker y. Eddy. The selections comprising the lesson sermon are compiled by a
central committee, and are published by the Christian Science Publishing Society in Boston, in a
pamphlet known as ' ' The Christian Science Quarterly." The church services are conducted bj' two
readers, generally a man and a woman. On Wedne.sday evening a meeting is held in every church of
this denomination. Testimonies of healing and remarks on Christian Science are given by the mem-
bers of the congregation at these meetings.
Mrs. P^ddy says in her book." Retrospection and Introspection : " "I claim for healing scien-
tifically the following advantages: 1. It does away with all material medicines and recognizes the
antidote for all sickness, as well as sin, in the immortal mind; and mortal mind is the source of all
the ills which befall mortals. 2. It is more effectual than drugs, and cures when they fail, or onlj'
relieve, thus proving the superiority of metanhysics over physics. 3. A person healed by Christian
Science is not only healed of his disease, but he is advanced morally and spiritually. The mortal
bod\^ being but the objective state of the mortal mind, this mind must be renovated to improve the
body." The absence of creed and dogma in the Christian Science Church, its freeaom from
materialism, mysticism, and superstition, also the simplicity, uniformity, and impersonality of its
form of worship and organization, are among the distinguishing features which characterize this
modern religious movement. Hvpnotism, mesmerism, spiritualism, theosophy, faith-cure, and
kindred systems are foreign to true Christian Science. Those practising these beliefs are denied
admission to the Christian Science Church.

Mr. Weller Van Hook, General Secretary of the American section, contributes the following
statement:
The Theosophical Society was founded in New York City on November 17, 1875, by Mm.e,
H. P. Blavat.sky and Col. Henry S. Olcott, but its headquarters were removed in 1879 to Adyair,
Madras, India. Its objects are three: (<0 To form a nucleus of the Universal Brotherhood of Humanit j',
without distinction of race, creed, sex, caste, or color; (6) to encourage the study of comparative;
religion, philosophy, and science; (c) to investigate unexplained laws of nature and the powers latent
in man. It has spread into almost all countries, and has now ten territorial section.s, each presided
over by a general secretary: America, Great Britain, India, Scandinavia, Holland. France, Italy.
Germany, Australia, and New Zealand. During the 29 years of its existence it has admitted about
28.000 members and chartered over 750 branches. The membership at present of the Amer-
ican section is about 3, 000; there are 77 branches. The society holds forth no doctrines and enjoins
none, but Theo.sophy is the natural study of its members, and a large and increasing number of tlieo-
sophical treatises is poured out by students. Reincarnation and Karma are the basic stones of the
Theosophical system. The president, Mrs. Annie Besant, resides at the Adyar headquarters; the
general secretary of the American section is Weller Van Hook, 103 State strpet. ChicaEro, 111. Some
organizations using the name "Theosophical" have been formed since 1875, but they are distinct
from and unaffiliated with the original Theosophical Society.
The Society appeals for support and encouragement to all who truly love their fellow men and
desire the eradication of the evils caused by the barriei'S raised by race, creed or color, which have so
long impeded human progress; to all scholars, to all sincere lovers of truth, ivheresoever it may be
found, and to all philosophers, alike in the East and in the West; and lastly to all who aspire to higher
and better things than the mere pleasures and interests of a worldly Itfe, and are prepared to make
the sacrifices by which alone a knowledge of them can be attained.

York, 1875, continued after her death under the leadership of the co-founder, William Ci. Judge, and
now under theleadeiship of their succes.sor, Katherine Tingley, has its International Headquarters
at the World's Theosophical Centre, Point Loma, California.
This organization declares that brotherhood is a fact in nature. The principal purpose of the or-
ganization is to teach brotherhood, demonstrate that it is a fact in nature, and make it a living power
in the life of humanity, establishing brotherhood .schools throughout the world, and creating a new
literature. Its subsidiary purpose is to study ancient and modern religion, science, philosophy, and
art, to investigate the laws of nature and the latent divine powers in man. It declares in its con-
stitution that every meinber has a right to believe or disbelieve in any religious sj'stem or philosophy,
each being required to show that tolerance for the opinions of others which he expects for his own.
The head of this organization is Katherine Tinglev, and the secretary -general is Frank M, Pierce.

The following statement is contributed to The World Almanac by direction of the Commander:
The Salvation A.rmj- is a religious body organized on xnilitary principles, with a view of reaching
the non-churchgoers of the world. It was first started in July, 1865, in the East End of London as a
Christian mission. Thirteen years later, on Christmas, 1878, it received the name of the Salvation
Arnij'. Since then its growth tliroughout the world lias been increasing.
The father and founder, Gen. William Bootli, was born in Nottingham, England, on April 10,
1829. In 1852 he entered the ministry of the Methodist Church, and became a powerful evangelist,
attracting immense crowds and witnessing thousands of conversions. Finding, however, that the
churchless masses could not be reached by ordinary methods, he resigned his pastorate and estab-
lished the Arm j'.
As a temperance movement it is stated that the Salvation Army has been the means of convert-
ing hundreds of thousands of confirmed drunlsards. Total abstinonce is a condition of membersliip.
The International headquarters are at 101 Victoria Street, London, England. Its world-wide opera-
tions are carried on in .M countries and colonies, embracing 7,316 po-ts, iinder the cliarge of
20,054 officers and employes, wit li 45,339 local officers, 17,099 brass bandsmen, and about 50.000
musicians. 63 periodica's are publislied in 24 languages, with a weekly circulation of aboiu
1,207,223. There are 668 Social Relief Institutions in the world, under the charge of nearly 3,000
officers aud employes. About 7,000 fallen women annually pass througli the 116 rescue liomos, and
from 80 to 90 per cent, of these are permanently restored to lives of virtue. There are 132 slum

science; to establish that Universal Religion which underlies all the various sects and creeds of
special religions; to propagate the principles taught by great seers of Truth and religious leaders of
dKTerent countries and illustrated by their lives; aud to help mankind in the practical application of
those principles in their spiritual, moral, intellectual and physical needs.

The American Sunday-School Union is the olTspring of the old First Day Society, which was
founded in Philadelphia in 1/91. In 1817 this organization became the Philadelphia Sunday and
Adult School Union, and in 1824 it assumed its present title. Its objects are to "concentrate the
efforts of Sabbath-school societies in different portions of our country to disseminate useful informa-
tion; to circulate moral and religious publications in every part of the land, and endeavor to plant a
Sundaj'-School wherever there is a population."
Some idea of the Society's work and growth may be obtained from the following facts: The Phila-
delphia Union began with one juvenile book in 1817, and with one missionary In 1821. Now the
American Sunday-School Union's publications are numbered by the thousands, and it has distribtiied
over $10,000,000 worth of religious literature; it maintains more than 150 permanent missionaries
and it has organized an average of more than 1,300 new Sabliath-schools a j'ear— nearly four a day

The historic and patriotic Order of the Cincinnati \v:is founded by the
American and French ofticers at the cantonments of tlie Continental army on
the Hudson at the close of hostilities in the Warof the Revolution for American
Independence, May 10. 1783.
In forming the society ii wa.s declared that, "To perpetuate, therefore, as
well the remembrance of this vast event as the mutual friendships which have
been formed under the pressure of common danger, and, in many instances,
cemented by the blood of the parties, the officers of the American army do
hereljy. in the most solemn manner, associate, constitute, and combine fheni-
selves" into one Society of Friends, to endure as long a.s they shall endure, or any
of their eldest male "posterity, and in failure thereof the collateral branches
who may be jtidged worthy of becoming its supporters and inembers. "•
thirteen State societies were formed, and one in France, under the direct
Eatronageof Louis XVf. Upon the roll of original members appeared the names of all the great
istoric military and naval characters of the Revolution, and upon the roll- of honorary members,
elected for their own lives only, appeared many of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
THE RIGHT TO MEMBER.SHIP.
All Continental ofUcers who had served with honor and resigned after three years' service as
officers, or who liad been rendered supernumerary and honorably discharged, in one of the several
reductions of the American army, or who had continued to the end' of the war, and all French olticers
who had served in t lie co-operating army under Count d'Estaing, or auxiliary army under Count de
Rochambeau, and held or attained the rank of colonel for such sei-vices. or who had commanded a
French fleet or ship of war on the American coa.st. were entitled to become original members, and
upon doing so were required to contribute a month's paj'.
STATE SOCIETIE^^
The Cincinnati is organically one society in membership, but for convenience in admission of
members and in iis charitable and patriotic" objects is subdivided into state societies, there beiiii^
thirteen, and the one in France, which was dispersed at the Reign of Terror in 17U3, but is being-
re-established. Four dormant societies were restored to membei"ship at the triennial meeting of 19f'2.
Membership descends to the eldest lineal male descendant, if judged worth}', and, in failure of
direct male descent, to inale descendants through intervening female descendants.
The general society when legislating for the good of the Order is composed of the general officers
and five delegates from each State society, and meets triennially. In 1854 it ruled that proper
descendants of Revolutionarv officers who were entitled to original membei-ship, but who never could
avail themselves of it, are qualified for hereditary membership, if found worthy, on due application.

tionary Sires, " organized July 4, 1875, having reorganized and chansred its name in 1889, has been

This organization was formed in 1789, being the effect of a popular movement in New York, having
primiirily in view a counterweight to the so-called "aristocratic" Societj' of the Cincinnati. It was
essentially anti-Federalist or democratic in its character, and its chief founder was William Mooney,
an upholsterer and a native-born American of Irish exti-action. It took its fii-st title from a noted,
ancient, wise, and friendly chief of the Delaware tribe of Indians, nained Tammany, who had, for the
want of a better subject, been canonized by the soldiers of the Revolution as the American patron saint.
Til e first meeting was held May 12, 1789. The act of incorporation was passed in 1805. The Grand
Sachem and thirteen Sachems "were designed to typify the President and the (Tovernors of the thirteen
original States. William Mooney was the first Grand Sachem. The Society is nominally a charitable
and social organization, and is distjnct from the General Committee of the Tamman.v Democracy,
which is a political organization, and caunot use Tammany Hall without the consent of the Society.

The Union Veteran Legion was organized at Pittsburgh, Pa., March, 1S84, and the
National Organization was perfected November 17, 1.S8G. Encampments are now organized
in 21 States and the District of Columbia, numbering 152 encampments. The membership
is over 20,000. To become a member, the applicant must have been an officer, soldier,
sailor, or marine of the Union army, navy, or marine corps during the late Civil War, who
volunteered prior to July 1, 1863, for a term of three years, and was honorably discharged
for any cause, after a service of at least two continuous years; or was, at any time, dis-
charged by reason of wounds received in the line of duty; also those who volunteered for
a term of two years prior to July 22, 1861, and served their full term of enlistment, unless
discharged for wounds received in the line of duty; but no drafted person, nor substitute,
nor any one who has at any time borne arms against the United States, is eligible. A
statement by the Adjutant-General of the Legion says: "Ft is believed that those who
entered the se(r\'ice prior to July, 1863, had but one object in view, and that was the
preservation of the Union. There were no bounties prior to that date, nor were there any
fears of a draft; consequently, those who sihouldered a musket or wielded a sabre felt that
it was a sacred duty to offer thedr lives in defence of their country's honor."

federation all associations of Confederate veterans, soldiers, and sailors now in existence or hereafter
to be formed; to gather authentic data for an impartial history of the war between the States; to pre-
serve relics or mementoes of the same; to cherish the ties of friendship that should exist among men
who have shared common dangers, common sufferings, and privations; to care for the disabled and
extend a helping hand to the needj'; to protect the widows and the orphans, and to make and preserve
a record of the resources of every member, and, as far as possible, of those of our comrades who have
preceded us in eternity. ' ' State organizations are authorized, and are called Divisions. The permanent
headquarters of the Association are at New Orleans, La. Number of Camps, 1,660. Number of mem-

The United Daughters of the Confederacy was organieed at Nashville, Tenn., September 10,
1894. It is composed of the widows, wives, mothers, sisters, and lineal female descendants of men
who served honorably in the army and navy of the Confederate States, or who served in the civil
service of the Confederate States or one of the Southern States, or who gave personal services to the
Confederate cause. There are local federations, governed by suite divisions, which in turn are sub-
ordinate to the general organization. The objects of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, as
stated in the constitution of the society, are "social, literary, historical, monumental, benevolent,
and honorable in every degree, without any political signification whatever.' ' It will endeavor: (1) To
unite in the federation all bodies of Southern women now organized or that may hereafter be
formed. (2) To cultivate ties of friendship among our women whose fathers, brothers, sons, and,
in numberless cases, mothers, shared common dangers, sufferings, and privations; and to perpetuate
honor, integrit.v, valor, and other noble attributes of true Southern character. (3) To instruct and
instill into the descendants of the r>eople of the South a proper respect for and pride in the glorious war
history, with a veneration and love for the deeds of their forefathei-s which have created such a
monument of military renown, and to perpetuate a truthful record of the noble and chivalric
achievements of their ancestors. All with the view of furnishing authenti* information from which a
conscientious historian will be enabled to write a correct and impartial history of the Confederate
side during the struggle -for Southern independence. The organization now has 900 chapters in
tHe United States, North and South, with 40,000 members.

Estimates of area and present population are by Whitaker, and in someca.ses bj' the "Statesman's
Year- Book, " except for British Africa and the late accessions there, which are corrected by Raven-
steiu's figures. Theentire population of the empire, according to the estimates of the "Statesman's
Year- Book," is 392,846,835, and the total area, 11,433,283. The East Indian possessions extend
overaterritorj' larger than the continent of Europe without Russia; but the North American posses-
sions are greater still, and, inclusive of Hud.son's Bay and the great lakes, have a larger area than

Order of Succession to the British Throne.
ren, Edward VI., Mary I., and Elizabeth, at whose death the crown fell to James VI. of Scotland,
great-grandson of Margaret eldest daughter of Henry VII. of Kugland, who ascended the throne
of England under the title of James I. On his death his tliird son ascended as Charles I., but he
was beheaded in 1G49 by Cromwell, who was made Protector until his death in 1660, when the eldest
son of Charles came to the throne as Charles IT. and he was followed by his brother, James II. The
latter abdicated in 1688, and was succeeded by a nephew, who had married the eldest daughter
of James, and the two reigned under their joint names as William III. andMarv II.
On their death James II. 's second daughter, Anne, ascended, and she dvihg childless the crown
fell to the Elector of Hanover, who was grandson of Elizabeth, daughter of James I. of England.
This Prince, George I. , was succeeded by his son, George II., who was succeeded by his grandson,
George III. After a longer reign than any previous English monarch, this king was succeeded by
his eldest son, George IV., and by his third son, William IV., both of whom dving childless, the
crown fell to Victoria, only child of Edward, fourth son of (ieoree III.,who ascended the throne
in 1837, and she was succeeded on her death by her eldest son, the present sovereign.
TITLE AND OATH OF THE KING.
The Royal Titles Act, which received the Royal Assent on August 17, 1901, enacted that—
"It shall be lawful for His Most Gracious Majesty, with a view to the recognition of His
Majestj''s Dominions beyond the seas, by His Koyal Proclamation under the C^reat Seal of the United
Kingdom, issued within six months after the passing of this act, tomakesuch addition to the stvie
and titles at present appertaining to the Imperial Crown of the United Kingdom and its dependencies
as to His Majesty may seem fit. "
Mr. Chamberlain, the Secretary for the Colonies, sent the following telegram to Colonial
Governors, asking them which title for the King they preferred. No. 3 was generally approved.
" King Edward's accession offers an opportunity of considering the titles of the 5lonarch, and I
am desirous that the separate and greatly increased importance of the Colonies should be recognized,
if possible. >
' ' The following suggestions have been made:—
"First. — 'King of Great Britain and Ireland, Emperorof India, and King (or Sovereign) of
Canada, Australasia, and all British Dominions beyond the Seas. '
' ' Second. —Addition to present title of the woi-ds, ' Sovereign Lord or King of the British Realms
beyond the Seas. '
"Third.— Addition to present title of the words, ' King of all the British Dominions beyond the
Sea' ; without specifying any particular Colony.
" On the whole, I prefer the third suggestion."
On November 4. 1901. the title assumed by His Majesty was ** Edward VII., by the Grace of Ood
of the United Kinpdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas, King,
Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India. ' '
THE KING'S ACCESSION OATH.
The Accession Oath taken by King Edward, to which so much exception was taken, is as
follows: —
"I, Edward, do solemnly and sincerely, in the presence of God, profess, testify, and declare,
that I do believe that in the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper there is not any transubstaiitiation of
the elements of bread and wine into the body and blood of Christator after the consecration there-
of by any person whatsoever; and that the invocation or adoration of the Virgin Mary or any other
Saint, and the sacrifice of the Mass. , as they are now used in the Church of Rome, are superstitious
and idolatrous, and I do solemnly, in the presence of God, profess, testify and declare, that I do
make this declaration, and every part thereof in the plain and ordinary sense of the words read unto
me as they are commonly understood by English Protestants without any evasion, equivocation, or
mental reservation whatsoever, and withoutanydispensation already granted me for this purpose by
the Pope or any other authoritj'. or person whatsoever, or without any hope of any such dispensation
fromany person or authority whatsoever, or without thinking that I am or can be acquitted before
God or man, or absolved of this declaration or any part thereof, although the Pope or any other
person or persons or power whatsoever should dispense with or annul the same, or declare that it was
null and void from the beginning. ' '
The revised form of oath which the Select Committee of the House of Lords suggested for the
King's Accession Oath ran thus: —
"T, A. B., by the Grace of God, King (or Queen) of Great Britain and Ireland, Defender of the
Faith, do solemnly and sincerely, in the presence of God, profess and testify, and declare that I do
believe, that in the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper there is not any transubstantiation of the
elementsof bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ, at or after the consecration thereof by
any person whatsoever. And I do believe that the invocation or adoration of the Virgin Mary or any
other Saint, and the sacrifice of the Mass as they are now used in the Church of Rome, are contrary
to the Protestant Religion. And I do solemnlj', in the presence of God, profess, testify and declare
that I do make this declaration and every part thereof unreservedly."
But this amendment was so much criticised that it was withdrawn.

The present Constitution of Mexico bears date February 5, 1857, with subsequent amend-
ments. By its terms Mexico is considered a Federative Republic, divided into States, nineteen at
the outset, but at present twenty- seven in number, with three Territories and one Federal District,
each having a right to manage its own local atiairs, while the whole are bound together in one
body politic by fundamental and constitutional laws. The powers of the Federal Governtoeilt
are divided into three branches— the legislative, executive, and judicial. The legislative power
is vested in a Congress, consisting of a House of Representatives and a Senate; the exectitive
in a President, and the judicial in Federal Courts. Representatives elected by the sutitage of all
male adults, at the rate of one member for 40, 000 inhabitants, hold their places for two year*
The qualitications requisite are to be twenty- five years of age and a resident in the State. The
Senate consists of two memVjers from each State, of at lea.^t thirty years of age, wiio hold their
places for four years. Senators are elected indirectly, lialf of tliem being renewed every two
years. The mernbers of both Houses receive salaries of §3,000 each a year.
The President is elected by electors popularly chosen in a general election and holds office
fof six years. According to the last Amendment of the Constitution, it does not pmhibit his
re- election. In case of his sudden disability, the Vice- President, who is also permanent President
of the Senate, officiates in his place. Congress has to meet annually, from September 10 to
December 15, and from April J. to May 31, and a permanent committee of both Houses sits
during the recesses. **" — ' — ^i"-^-

The above returns were compiled from the reports of the International Bureau of American
Republics.
The Bureau was established at Washington under tlie recommendation of the Pan- American
Conference of 1890, for the purpose of maintaining clo.ser relations of commerce and frif-ndship
between the American Republics. At the Pan- American Conference at Mexico in 1901, its scope
was enlarged, while at the Third Pan- American Conference held at Rio de Janeiro in 1906 a re.solu-
tion was passed for its reorganization upon broader lines, so that it should become a world recognized
and practical institution for the development of Pan-American commerce and comity.
The list of Directors who have administered the affairs of the Bureau since it was organized is a,s
follows: William E. Curtis, 1890-3893; Clinton Furbish, 1893-1897: Joseph P. Smiih. 1897-3898;
Frederic Emory, 1898-1899; W. W. Rockhill, 1899-1905; William C. Fox, 1905-1907; John
Barrett, 1907.
The general object of the International Bureau is, first, to develop commerce and trade and,
second, to promote better relations, clo.ser acquaintance, and more intimate association along intel-
lectual, educational, aud social as well as material lines among the American Republics.
The Bureau for commercial purposes is in touch, in both North and South America, on the one
hand, with manufacturers, merchants, exporters and importers, doing all it can to facilitate the
exchange and building up of trade among the American Nations, and on the other hand, with luiiver-
sity and college presidents, professors and students, with w-riters, newspaper men, scientists and
travellers, providing them with a large variety of information that will increase their interest iu the
different American Nations.
It publishes numerous hand books, pamphlets aud maps, a list of which will be forwarded upon
application.
The Bureau is also the office or agency, and custodian of archives of the International American
Conferences. It has charge of the correspondence relating thereto, the ratification of their resolutions
aud the issuance of calls for new conferences.
Work will soon be begun on the new building of the Bureau, to be located on the Van Np^^s Park
site, Seventeenth and B Streets. Washington, for which Mr. Andrew Carnegie has given $750,000
and the ditterent republics $250. 000, making a total of $1,000,000 available for the new home aud
grounds of the Bureau.

* Egypt and the Egyptian Soudan, although nominally under the suzerainty of Turkey, are really
controlled by tireat Britain, and it is only a matter of time as to when they will be incorporated into
the British Empire. Adding Egypt and the Soudan to the Empire would increase the figures above
?iven to 3.207,700 square miles and 50.316,019 population.
The remaining territory of Africa unoccupied is a part of the great Desert of Sahara and the Inde-
pendent States of Abyssinia aud Liberia. I'.ven this territory, except the la.st, is destined to pass
under the power of the Europeans. The tabular figures are from ' ' The Statesman' s Year- Book. '^'

Note. — The population of Cliinese 1 ilirs utlier than Canton, Peking, and .Shanghai is oinitteil, becau.se reports respecting it are
utterly untrustworthy. There are f. rtv or more Chinese cities whose inhabitants are numbered by rumor at from 200,000 to
1,000,000 each, but no official censuses have ever been taken; and setting aside consi<leration of the Oriental tendency to exagger.i-

PROPORTION
OF SEXES IN THE UNITED STATES.
(Extracts from Census Bulletin No. 14.)
MORE MALES THAN FEMALES IN THE UNITED STATES.
The whole population of continental United States was first counted with distinction of
sex in lt>2U. During the seventy years from 1830 to ItKX) the absolute excess of males was
gireater at each census than at any preceding census with one exception — that of ISTU —
when the excess of males was less than m IS'50 and IStiO.
This reduction of the excess of males between 18ti0 and 1870, by albout ;iOO,(M)0, was
dO'U.btlesis due lo the deaths in the Civil War and the ddminished ImmiigTation during the
decade.
The greatest relative excess of males wais in 1890, when in each 10,000 people there
were 242 moj-e males than females.
By 1900 this excess had decreased to 216 in 10,000, less than, the relative excess in
1890 and 1860, but greater than that at each other cenisus.
In continental United States there are 1,638,321 more males than femiales, or about two
in each 100 people.
Probably in the population of the world, as a whole, and certainly in that half of it
which has been counted with distinction of sex, there ao-e several millions moqre males
than females.
In continental United States, howeveo-, the relative excess of males is greater than the
average for all countries.
Europe has an excess of females; every, other continent, so far as known, has an ex-
ceiss of males.
The divisions of continental United States with the smalleet proportion of males afe ihe
Disti-ict of Columbia (47.4 per cent.), Massachusetts (48.7 per cent.), and Rhode Island
(49.1 pei- cent.); those with the largest are Wyoming (62.9 per cent.), and Montana (61,6
per cent. •';. ■
As a rule sparsely settled regions have an excess of males and densely settled regions
an excess of females.
CITIES HAVE MORE FEMALES THAN MALES.
American cities as a rule have more females than males. In the 1.8G1 cities, each
having m 1900 at least 2,500 Inhabutants, there were 201,959 more females than males, and
this notiwithstanding the many western cities which contained more males than females,
and the enoj-mous numiber of ifor&ign-born in the country, five-ninths of them male, and a
large proportion of them living in the cities.
This tendency of Amer.can cities to develop a population having a majority of females
had increased since 1890, when, in the 1,490 cities, each having at least 2,500 inhiab'itants,
Ithere were 6,929 more males than females.
While the excess of 6,929 males in American cities in 1890 became an excess of 210,959
females in American cities in 1900, the excess of 1,519,559 males in country districts in
1890 becaane an excess of 1,840,280 males In 1900.
Or, ^xfvressing the fiacts -in ratios, of each 1,000 inhabitants of such cities in 1890, 500
were males and in 1900, 497 were males; of each 1,000 inhabitants living out.si.Je the.=e
cities in 1890, 519 were males, and in 1900 520 were males. The difference thus in the
number of males or of females between an average thousand of city and of country popu-
lation in 1890 was 19, and in 1900, 23. .^
WOMEN LIVE LONGER THAN MEN.
Notwithstanding the great excess of males in the total population of the United
States, theae are two periods Oif li?e at which the reported number of females Is greater.
Onie, extending from about eigtity-three years of age to the end of life, is probably due
mainly to the longer average life of woman; the other, from s-ixteen to twenty-five, is
probably apparent rather than real, and due mainly to the greater number of women who
claim, erroneously, to belong to this age period.
In 1900, among the 13,307,147 persons attending school, 499 in 'each 1.000 were male
and 501 female; in 1S90, in the same class, 510 per 1,000 were male and 490 female.
INCREASING PROPORTION OF GIRLS AMONG SCHOOL CHILDREN.
In all races and in all parts of the country there has been a decided increa.se since 1890
in the proportion of females among persons att«nding school. This increase is due mainly
to the increase in the proportion of young women among persons at leaist fifteen years <it
a^ge attending school, the increase at this age period being nearly five times as great as at
any other, and more than thi-ee times as great as the average increaise for all ages.
DD.^TH RATE HIGHER FOR MALES THAN FEMALE.^.
The death rate of maleis in the registration area of the United Statf-s in 1900 was 19.0
per 1,000, and that of females, 16.6 per l,0<.tO, tbe former having a death nate higther by
about one-«eventh than the latter. In the 346 registration citie.s the death rate of males
was 20.0, and that of females 17.2 per l.tKK), the male 'rate exceedin,g the female by one-
sixth. In the rest of the registration area the male death rate was 15.8 and that of females
15.0 per 1,000, the mate rate exceeding the female by ooe-nineteenth.

* The average size of families was 4.7 persons in 190O.against 5 in 1880 and 5.6 in 1850. Of the 15,963,965
private families in 1900. 14,042,546 had male heads and 1,921.419 female h^ads.
t< »f 7.218,755 persons owning their homes in 1900, 6,064,848 were native whites, 1,730,970 were foreign
whites, 372,444 were negroes, 48,219 were Indians, and 2,274 Chinese and Japanese.
The density of population is obtained by dividing the population of each State and Territory and
of the United "states by its total land area in .square miles at each census. In computing density of
population lor the United States, the areas and population of Alaska and Hawaii in 1900. of Alaska
m 1890, and of Indian Terrritorv in 1860, 1870. and 1880 are not considered. The area of Indian reser-
vations, outside of Indian Territory, is included in the area of the states and Tfrritories in wbich they
are.severally situated, and in that of the United States, prior to 1890, although the population of these
Indian reservations was not ascertained, and, for this reason, cannot be considered in figuring density
of population at the censuses prior to 1890.
The density of population of the United States, exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii, accordmg to the
Censusof 1900,"is25.6— that is, there were in the United States in 1900, on the average, 25.6 inhabitants to
the .square mile, using land surface only. At the Census of 1790 there were less than 5 inhabitants to
the square mile, so that the density of the population of the country has increased in 110 years more
than fivefold, although the land area of the country in 1900, exclusive of Alaska aud Hawaii, was more
tba" three and one-half times what it was in 1790.

NoTK. —The figures relating to conjugal condition are not absolute, as the statementsastotho.se
married and unmarried are apt to be incorrectly reported, par»lj' through unintentional misstatement
and partly through a desire to conceal the facts. For mstauce, an incorrect return may be made
through lack of knowledge, in the case of boarders and lodgers (particularly men) who are reported
as single when in fact they are or have been married; or from motives of concealment, in the case of
divorced persons who report themselves as single, of couples who have separated but are not legally
divorced, or of persons who are not lawfully married.

Illiteracy among negroes is about seven times as common as among whites.
There are 3,992,337 negroes in Continental United States engaged in gainful occupations.
The death rate of negroes in the registration area in 1900 was 30.2 per cent. ; that of whites in the
same area was 17.3 per cent,
Tiie proportion of negro children to negro women 15 to 49 years of age was largest in 18P0 and
smallest in 1900. There has been uniformly a larger proportion of negro children than of white
children. That difference more than doubled between 1860 and 1880, but in 1900 it was le.ss than
half what it was in 1880 and less than at any other census except 1860.
Tliough the negroes have a larger proportion of children than the whites, it has been noticed that
the whites of the South have a larger proportion than the whites in other sections of the country.
At the two censuses preceding the Civil War, the proportion of children for the two races at
the South was substantially the same. The immediate effect of the Civil War and Reconstruction, if
the figures of 1870 mav be trusted to that extent, was to reduce the proportion of. children among
.Southern whites by about one-eighth, and among negroes by about one twenty-fifth. The following
decade saw an increase in the proportion for each race, but as the decrease among the negroes 1860 to
18.0, has been less, so was the increase, 1870 to 1880, greater. But between 1880 and 1900 there
was a decrease of 160 in the number of negro children at the South to 1,000 negro women, and a
decreaseof only 75 white children to 1,000 white women. As a result, in 1900 there were for the
first time more white children than negro children at the South to 1,000 women.

The abpve summary shows that of the 21,329,819 males of voting age in 1900,19,002,279, or
89.1 per cent, were literate, and 2,327,540, or 10.9 percent, .were illiterate. By "illiterate " is meant
all persons who can neither read nor write, or who can read but not write. There is a very large per-
centage of illiterates among each of the several classes of colored males of voting age, and a consider-
able proportion also among foreign white males of voting age. Of the two classes of native white
males of voting age much the larger proportion of ill iterates is found am^ng those of native parentage,
5. 8 per cent. of this class of voters being illiterate as compared with 2 per cent, for native white males
of voting age who are of foreign parentage.

This table was prepared by the Census Office. The centre of the negro population in 1890 was near
Rome, (ia. , and was travelling Gulfward.
The centre of area of the United States, excluding Alaska and Hawaii and other recent accessions,
is in Northern Kansas, in approximate latitude 39° 55', and approxinuite longitude 98° 50'. The
centre of population is therefore about three-fourths of a degree south and more than thirteen degrees
east of the centre of area.

634 Wome7i at Work in the United States.
sraomcn at 2imorfe in tije sauitftr <Statts»
(The Census Bureau issued in 1907 a report presenting statistics of Women at Work.)
In the United States the number of women at work as returned by the census of 1900
was almost five million. In continental United States— by which is meant the United
States exclusive of Alaska, Hawaii and all other outlying territories or possessions— the
exact number was 4,838,030.
RACE AND NATIVITY.
The total number includes 1,771,966 native white women whose parents also were
natives; 1,090,744 native white women one or both of whose parents were immigrants;
840,011 white women who were themselves immigrants; 1,119.621 negro women, and 11,288
Indian and Mongolian women. Thus the native white women of native parentage consti-
tuted 36.7 per cent., or more than one-third, of the total number of women who were
breadwinners, the other classes being represented by the following percentages: Native
white of foreign parentage, 22.6; foreign born wihite, 17.4; negro, 23.2; Indian and Mon-
golian 2-10 of 1 per cent.
AGE.
Most of the women at work were young women; 68.4 per cent, of them were under
35 years of age, 44.2 per cent, were under 25, and 25.6 per cent, had not reached the age
of 21. These figures are in marked contrast with those for the male sex. Of the men 16
years" of age and over reported as workers or breadwinners, only 24.7 per cent, were under
the age of 25, and only 12.7 per cent, were under 21. This contrast is indicative of the
fact that large numbers of women who support themselves and others in early life cease
to be breadwinners upon assuming the responsibilities of marriage and childbearing.
MARITAL CONDITION.
This conclusion is substantiated by the statistics of marital or conjugal condition.
Almost two-thirds, or 65 per cent., of the total number of women at work were single,
while 15.9 per cent, were married, 17.7 per cent, were widows and 1.3 per cent, were
divorced.
PROPORTION OF WOMEN AT WORK.
The total number of women 16 years of age and over in con-tinental United States
in 1900 was 23,485,559. The number at work constituted 20.6 per cent, of this total. In
other words, one woman in every five was a breadwinner, that term being used to
designate persons reported by the Census as following a gainful occupation. Of the total
male population of the same age — that is, 16 years and over — 90.5 per cent, were bread-
winners. This difference between the sexes as regards the percentage of breadwinoers is
probablv not greater than would be anticipated. Men take up some occupation almost as
a matter of course, and usually follow it the greater part of their lives. With women
the adoption of an occupation, although by no means unusual, is far from being cus-
tomary, and in the well-to-do classes of society is exceptional. Moreover, the pursuit of
an occupation by women is probably more often temporary than permanent.
OCCUPATIONS OP WOMEN.
In the reports of the Twelfth Census (:'9001, the deit'ailed classification of bread-
winners with respect to the kind of work in which they were engaged distinguishes 303
occupations. i
Notwithstanding the increasing diversity of emplovments for wnrmen. domestic service
still remains the most important by far of the occupations in which they are engaged.
Of the 4,833,630 women in continental United States reported as engaged in gainful occu-
pations at the time of the Twelfth Cerisus, 1.124.383. or almost one-fourth of the total
number, were returned as servants. It may seem surorising thait the next most importTnt
occupation for women is that of farm laborer, and that the number of women reported
as following this occupation was 4.'»6,405, or almost half a million. The significance of the
figures will be better understood if it is pointed out that 442.006, or 96.8 per cent, of thp=:e
female farm laborers were reported from the Southern States, and that 361.804. or 7'1.3
per cent, of the total number, were of the negro race. Moreover, it appears that 277.727.
or 60.9 per cent, of the total num-ber. were members of the farmers' families, representing
the wives and grown-up daughters, assisting in the work on the home farms. Next to
these two leading occupations come four occupations not far apart in numerical importance,
though widely different in character. They are the occupations of dressmaker, laundress,
teacher and farmer. The large.';* of these occupations — that of dressmaker — employed
338.144 wom.en. and the smallest— that of farmer— employed 307,706. Of teachers, there
were 827.206: of laundresses. 328,935.
Three-fifths of the total number of women reported as bre^Jdwinners were found In
the six occupations employing more than 300,000 women each, the aggregate number !n
these occupations being 2,882.779. The total number of women reported as textile mill
operatives — 231,458 — makes this the seventh occunation group in numerical importance.
The occupation next in rank is that of housekeepers and stewardesp^s. This comprised
146.929 women. The housekeepers here referred to are those working for wages, the
housekeeping or housework done by women in their own homes not being treated by the
Census as a gainful occupation, although it has. of course, a great economic importance,
not to be overlooked in any attempt to estimate the social value of woman's work. If
there are added to the occupation groups alreadv mentioned the group of saleswomen,
comprising 142.265 women, and that of seamstresses. comnrisin<r 138 7''4. the list inclndps
the ten leading occupations for women, and accounts for 3. .542,1.55, or 73.3 per cent, of the
total number of women who are breadwinners.
Teaching is also an occupation in which women predominate. The occupation is one
In which both sexes have long been competing on terms of approximate equality, and it is
significant that it is also one in which the predominance of women is increasing. In 1880.
the percentage of female teachers was 67.8; it advanced to 70.8 in 1890. and to 73.4 in
1900. In the group of textile mill operatives the two sexes were represented in about
equal numbers. Put in the remaining three of the ten leading occupations mentioned
above, women, thouprh numerous, were in the minority, constituting 24.1 per cent, of the
total number of salesmen ancj saleswomen, 13.6 per cent, of the farm laborers and only
5.4 per cent, of the farmers.

Finances of Largest Cities, 639
jFinanccs of fLargest (tiiitn
The C?nsus Office under date of October 4, 1907, issued a Bulletin presenting official
statistics relating to the finances of cities having a population of over :iU,(X)0. This Bulletin
summarized the contents of the annual report of the Census Office and covered the
year iy05.
POPULATION AND AREA.
The number of cities included in this report is 154, of which 15 had over 300,000
inhabitants, 25 between 100,000 and 300,000, 47 between 50,000 and 100,000. and 67 under
50,000. » Of the 154 cities. New York had the largest land area— 200,218 acres; New
Orleans stood second, with 125,000; Chicago third, with 117,447; Philadelphia fourth, with
81,828, and Duluth fifth, with 40,550. The five cities named were the only ones with
over 40,000 acres of land surface. Six cities had over 30,000 acres and less than 40,000.
They are St. Louis, Mo.; Washington, D. C. ; Denver, Colo.; Des Moines, Iowa; St. Paul
and Minneapolis, Minn., with areas in the order named. The other cities covering over
20,000 acres were, in the order of decreasing areas: San Francisco, Cal.; Salt Lake City,
Utah; Taunton, Mass.; Sioux City, Iowa; Los Angeles, Cal.; Cincinnati, Ohio; Buffalo,
N. Y. ; Cleveland, Ohio; Boston, Mass.; Springfield, Mass.; Portland, Ore.; Worcester, Mass.;
Superior Wis.; Detroit, Mich.; San Antonio, Texas; Fall River, Mass.; Wichita, Kans.;
Manchester, N. H.; Seattle, Wash., and Haverhill, Mass.
The city having the smallest land area was Hoboken N. J., with 825 acres. There
is often great disproportion between the area covered by a city and Che number o-f its
inhabitants. Duluth, Minn., with 64.042 inhabitants, takes in more territory than Sit.
Louis, with its 636.073; Salt Lake City, with a population of 6,554 less than Hoboken,
includes an area thirty-five times as great. Of the cities containing over 100,000 popula-
tion, Allegheny, Pa., had the smallest land area— 4,726 acres. Paterson, N. J., had the
next smallest — 5.157 acres; St. Joseph, Mo., the next— 6,240 acres; Atlanta, Ga., the
next— 7,680; Jersey City, N. J., the next— 8,320, and Memphis, Tenn., the next—
9,772 acres.
COSTS OF GOVERNMENT.
The costs of government to the taxpayer were represented approximately for the
several cities by what the Bureau of the Census calls "corporate payments." These
payments exclude all temporary transactions and payments of one department or fund
of the city to another. For the 1.54 cities they aggregated, in the fiscal year 1905, $572,-
960,11.3, of w-hich those of New Y^ork City constituted $164,493,177, or 28.7 per cent.
Of the 154 cities whose statistics were presented in this special report, the Census
had secured and presented in previous reports and bulletins of 1902. 1903 and 1904, the
statistics of 148. The corporate pavments for these cities for the four years, 1902 to 1905.
were as follows: $468,747,556, $522,699,016, $553,229,200 and $.569,. 503, 687. The corporate
pavments or costs of government for these 148 cities for 1903. 1904 and 1905 were 11.5,
18 and 21.5 per cent greater, respectively, than for 1902. The corresponding payments for
New York Citv in the four years mentioned were $129,095,546, $156,886,282, $167,060,171
and $164,493,177.
Of the total corporate payments of these 154 cities, 66.6 per cent, were for the cnrro)>t
expenses of operation and maintenance, including the support of the departments and
industries; 32.1 per cent, were for outlays, or improvements of a more or less permanent
character; and 1.3 per cent, were for reduction of indebtedness. The corresponding per-
centages for the cities investigated in 1902 were 71.2 for expenses. 27.3 for outlays and
1.5 for reduction of debt. .The relative increase of payments in the four years was, there-
fore, somewhat greater for permanent improvements than for mere expenses of operation
and maintenance.
Of cities with an estimated population of over 300,000, the per capita corporate
payments were largest in Boston and smallest in Milwaukee. Next in order, after Boston,
were New York and Washington; and of the cities with small relative cost of govern-
ment. New Orleans, Detroit and Chicago are close rivals with Milwaukee.
Of the payments for general expenses, 61.8 per cent, were for salaries and wages, and
3S.2 per cent, were for other purposes. In 1904 the corresponding percentages were 61.7
and 38.3, respectively. The per cents, of the total expenses formed by those of tha
principal departments or branches of service were as follows: Schools. 25.9; Police Depart-
ment, 12.7; highways, 10.8; interest on public debt. 10.1; Fire Department, 9.5; general
government, 9; sanitation, including costs of Health Department, sewers, etc., 8.8;
<-liaritie3, 5.7; recreation, including parks, 3; miscellaneous protection of life and property,
1.7; libraries, 1.2, and other unclassified, 1.6.
RECEIPTS.
During the fiscal year 1905 the corporate receipts for the 154 cities were $575,814,774.
The corresponding receipts for the 148 cities for w^hich the Bureau of the Census secured
reports for the years 1902 to 1905 were as follows: $476,668,975. $528,586,954, $588,611,566
and $.572,404,512. It is to be noted that these receipts were largest in 1904, and smallest
in 1902. As compared with 1902, the receipts were greater by 10.9 per cent, in 1903, by
23.5 per cent, in 1904 and 20.1 per cent, in 1905.
Of the corporate receipts of the 154 cities in 1905, 66.5 per cent, were derived from
general revenues, including taxes, licenses and kindred sources; 20.7 per cent, from com-
mercial revenues, including those from quasi private industries, and receipts in fees,
cliarges, etc., for services performed, and 12.8 per cent, from loans which increased city
indebtedness. The corresponding percentages for 1902 were 68.3, 19.3 and 12.4. These
percentages indicate a slight tendency for the receipts from commercial revenues and
from loans to increase faster than those from general revenues, or from taxation.
Of the commercial revenues, the most important were those derived from quasi private
industries operated by cities. Of these industries, city water-works take the fir.st place,
nnd docks and wharves the second. The total municipal income from water- works in
1905 was $47,657,957, of which amount New York City received $9,748,870, The aggregate
640 Finances of Largest Cities.
FINANCES OF LARGEST CVTl^'^— Continued,
receipts from docks and wharves were $3,438,658, of which amount New York City received
13,097,050.
Of the general revenue receipts, $309,441,271 were derived from general property
taxes and from penalties for delayed payment thereof; $9,85fi,5S2 were from special prop-
erty and business taxes; $1,063,922 from poll taxes, and $37,032,593 from licenses and
l)ermits, of which amount $29,616,245 were derived from liquor licenses and taxes. The
amount of $2,875,882 was received from fines and forfeits; $24,029,267 from subventions
and grants from other civil divisions and from private donations and gifts, and $194,018
was obtained from miscellaneous sources.
MUNICIPAL QUASI PRIVATE INDUSTRIES.
The report presented a number of tables relating to the operation of quasi private
industries by the 154 cities. Among those tables was one giving detailed data relating
to the value, indebtedness, earnings, costs of operation and earning capacity of the water-
v/orks of the several cities. The table showed the earning capacity of these water-works
on three different bases: (1) Excess of actual receipts from the public over the actual
payments for operating expenses; (2) excess of the actual receipts from the public, pins
an estimated charge for the value of water used by the city for public purposes, over the
ii^ctual payments for operating expenses, plus an allowance of 3 per cent, of the value
of the plant — this allowance being for depreciation and Sinking Fund provisions, and
(3) excess of the receipts, etc., as in (2), over the costs and allowance given in (2), plus
an estimate of the taxes which the city would have received had tjhe industry been oper-
ated as a private enterprise. On the three bases, as above described, there was computed
the principal which would produce the resulting excess of receipts if that principal earned
the rate per cent, which the individual city pays on its outstanding indebtedness.
The total reported present value of water-works in these 154 cities was $535,957,239;
the outstanding indebtedness incurred by reason of water-works was $270,733,611. The
earning capacity on the basis first described was $593,858,778; on the basis described
imder (2) it was $354,170,467; while on the basis last described it was only $199,263,378. A
few cities showed no earning capacity on any of these bases, and only a very few showed
Kuch capacity, on the third basis, equal to the cost, or even to the reported valuation of
the plant. Among the cities last referred to was New York, with water-works which
were reported to have cost $139,085,000, and whose present value was returned as $74,672.-
0S7; these water-works had an earning capacity on basis (1) of $195,592,617, on basis (2)
of $151,876,794, and on basis (3) of $119,043,029. Another such city was Chicago, with
water-works whose cost and present value were both reported as $39,099,256; these water-
works had an earning capacity on basis (1) of $62,569,250, on basis (2) of $46,267,925, and
on basis (3) of $42,172,250.
The reports stated that a grea'; difficulty was expei'ienced in obtaining comparative
statistics of the cost of quasi private industries, principally because of the lack of
uniformity in the methods of public accounting. Scarcely any two industries are operated
with the same concept of the end to be obtained or the results to be secured In order that
the management may be called a success.
The value of all properties of quasi private industries at the close of the fiscal year
1905 was $831,368,707. The outstanding indebtedness on their account was reported as
$445,572,406, showing that, taken as a whole, the 154 cities had earned from revenues
nearly one-half of the costs of these industrial plants. This large relative payment for
the plants of quasi private industries, and the small relative amount of bonded indebted-
ness by reason of their establishment, is in marked contrast to the condition of affairs
among the larger cities of Great Britain.
CITY DEBT.
The total indebtedness of the 154 cities in 1905 was $1,618,414,005, of which $1,444,-
725.797 was classed as "funded" and the remainder as "floating." Of that remainder,
$75,494,792 was classed as "revenue or tax loans"; $77,982,998 as "special assessment
loans"; $18,950,122 as "outstanding warrants," and $1,260,296 as "miscellaneous obliga-
tions." Of the aggregate indebtedness thus reported by the 154 cities, $1,521,630,914 was
incurred by the city government. $36,822,609 by independent school districts for the same
territory as the city, and $59,960,482 by civil divisions having such similar territory and
also authorized to incur debt.
The total indebtedness of the 148 cities for which reports were received for the years
1902 to 1905 was $1,207,735,510 in 1902; $1,396,421,820 in 1903; $1,528,724,360 In 1904, and
$1,610,074,280 in 1905.
The indebtedness, less Sinking Fund assets, for these 148 cities for the years
mentioned was $1,026,228,373, $1,106,327,124, $1,225,851,090 and $1,290,678,632. In four
years the population of these cities increased 7.9 per cent., while the indebtedness, less
Sinking Fund assets, increased 25.8 per cent., or more than three times the per cent, of
increase of population. As a result, the per capita net indebtedness, which was $51.14 in
1902, had risen to $58.48 in 1905.
COSTS OF MAINTAINING PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
The report presents a table showing the costs of maintaining free public schools for
the several cities, including in such costs the Interest on investments in school buildings
and grounds. The relative investments of the cities in school property may be noted by
the varying amounts allowed for interest on such investments. These varied from 7 cents
per capita in Charleston, S. C, and 22 cents in Atlanta, Ga., to $1.33 in J^enver, Colo.,
$1.35 in Pueblo, Colo.; $1.43 in Newton, Mass., and $1..53 in Spokane, Wash. In like
manner the aggregate per capita costs of maintaining schools, including the foregoing
allowance for interest, varied from $1.57 in Charleston, S. C. ; $1.96 in Knoxville, Tenn.,
and $1.98 m Montgomery, Ala., to $7.22 in Boston, Mass.; $7.90 in Newton. Mass.; $8.40 in
Spokane, Wash., and $8.67 in Pueblo, Colo. A part of the great variation is due to In-
correct estimates of the value of school propertv and. in the case of the two cities last
mentioned, to a probable low estimate of city population.

652 TTnited States Naval Academy at An7idpoUs.
Mnittn .states ^iliUt^ ^catJtm^ at WS^tni INfut;
Bach Senator, Conarressioual District, and Territory— also the District of Columbia, Porto, llico
and Alaska— is entitled to have one cadet at the Academy. There are also forty appointments at iaryre,
specially conferred by the President of the United States. The number of students is thus limited to 523.
Appoftitments are usually made one year in advance of date of admission, by the Secretary of
War, upon the nomination of the Senator or Representative. These nominations maj' either be made
after competitive examination or given direct, at the option of the Representative. The Representa-
tive may nominate two legally qualified second candidates, to be designated alternates. The alternates
will receive from the War Department a letterof appointment, ana will be examined with the regular
appointee, and the best qualified will be admitted to the Academy in the event of the failure of the prin-
cipal to pass the prescribed preliminary examinations. Appointees to the Military Academy must be
between seventeen and twenty- two years of age, free from any infirmity which may render them
unfit for military service, and able to pass a careful examination in reading, writing, sp»Mling,
English grammar, English composition, English literature, arithmetic, algebra through quadratic
equations, plane geometry, descriptive geograph.v and the elements of physical geography, espe-
cially the geography of the United Stat-^s, United States history, the outlines of general history, and
the general principles of physiology and hygiene.
The course of instruction, which is quite thorough, requires four years, and is largely mathemati-
cal and professional. The principal subjects taught are mathematics, English, French, drawing, drill
regulations of all arms of the service, natural and experimental philosophy, chemistry, chemical phys-
ics, mineralogy, geology, electricity, history, international, constitutional, and military law, Spanish,
civil and military engineering, art and science of war, and ordnance and gunnery. About one-
fOurth of those appointed usually fail to pass the preliminarj' examinations, and butlittle over one-half
the remainderare finally graduated. The discipline is very strict— even more so than in the army— and
the enforcement of penalties for offences is inflexible rather than severe. Academic duties begin
Beptember 1 and continue until Junel. Examinations are held in each December and June, and cadets
found proficient in studies and correct in conduct are given the particular standing in their class to
which their merits entitle them, while those cadets deficient in either conductor studies are discharged.
From about the middle of June to tne end of August cadets live in camp, engaged only in military
duties and receiving practical military instruction. Cadets are allowed bnt one leave of absence
during the four years' coui-se, and this is granted at the expiration of the first two ycai-s. The pay ol a
cadet is $609.50 per year, and, with proper economy, is sufficient for his sui)p6rt. The number of
students at the Academy is usually about four hundred and seventj*.
Upon graduating cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the United States Army. The
whole number of graduates from 1802 to 1906, inclusive, has been 4,642. It is virtually absolutel.v
necessary for a person seeking an appointment to apply to his Senator or Memberof Congress. Tiie
appointmentsby the President are usually restricted to sons of officers of the army and navy, who, by
reason of their shifting residence, due to the necessities of the service, find it next to impossible to
obtain an appointment otherwise. The Superintendent is Colonel Hugh L. Scott, U. S. A. , and tlie
military and academic staff consists of 101 persons. Capt. Joseph S. Herron, 2d Cavalry, is adjutant.
A list of the Superintendents of the Military Academy since its foundation will be found on page 557.
23nttc^ States l^Cabal ^catrtm^ at i^nnapolfs.
THEstudents of the Naval Academy are called Midshipmen. Two Midshiimien are allowed for
each Senator, Representative, and Delegate in Congress, two for the District of Columbia, and five
each year from the United States at large. The appointments from the District of Columbia and five
each year at large are made by the President. One Midshipman is allowed from Porto Rico, who must
be a native of that island. The appointment is made by the President, on the recommendation of
the Governor of Porto Rico. The Congressional appointments are equitably distributed, so that as
soon as practicable each Senator, Representative, and Delegrate in Congress may appoint one Mid-
.shipraan during each Congress. The course for Midshipmen is six years— four years at the Academj-,
when the succeeding appointment is made, and two years at sea, at the expiration of which time the
examination for graduation takes place. Midshipmen who pass the examination for final graduation
areappointed to fill vacancies in the lower grade of the Line of the Navy, in the order of merit as
determined by tJie Academic Board of the Naval Academy. The act of 'June 29, 1906, prescribes
that the Secretary of tlie Navy shall as soon as possible after Junel of each year preceding the
graduation of mid.shipmen in the succeeding year, notify in writing each Senator, Repre-sentative.
and Delegate in Congress of any vacancy that will exist at the Naval Academj' because of such
graduation, and which he shall be entitled to fill by nomination of a candidate and one or more
alternates therefor. The nomination of a candidate and alternate or alternates to fill s<'vid vacancy
shall be made upon the recommendation of the Senator, Representative, or Delegate, if such recom-
mendation is made by INIarch 4 of the year following that in %vhich said notice in writing is given, but
if it is not made by that time the Secretary of the Navy shall fill the vacancy bj' appointment of an
actual resident of the State, Congressional District, or Territory, astheca.se may be, in which the
vacancy will exist, who shall have been for at least two years immediately preceding the date of his
appointment an actual and bona fide resident of the State, Congressional District, or Territorj- in
w>iich the vacancy will exist, and of the legal qualification under the law as now provided. Candi-
dates allowed for Congressional Districts, for Territories, and for the District of Columbia must be
actual residents. Candidates at the time of their examination must be ph.vsically sound, well formed,
and of robust constitution. Attention will also be paid to the stature of the candidate, and no one
j>wrrtiY(«?.<!//.v under size for his age will be received at the Academy. The height of candidates for admis-
sion shall not be less than 5 feet 2 inches between the ages of 16 and 18 years, and not less than 5 feet
4 inches between the ages of 18 and 20 years ; and the minimum weight at 16 years of age shall be 100
pounds, with an iucrea.se of not less than 5 pounds for each additional year or fraction of a j'ear over
one-half. Any marked deviation in the relative height and weight to the age of a candidate will add
materially to the consideration for rejection. Candidates must be unmarried, and any Midshipman
who shall many, or who shall be found to be married, before his graduation, sh:jlbe dl.smissed
from the service, and no midshipman may marry between the date of his graduation from the Naval
Academy and his final graduation after two years' service at sea, except by permission of the
Secretary of the Navy. All candidates must, at the time of their examination tor admission, be
between the ages of 16 and 20 years. The pay of a Midshipman Is $500, beginning at the date of
admission. The regulations regarding places and times of examinations and suljjects of examinations,
may be obtained by addressing the Chief of the Bureau of Navigation, Navj' Department, Washington,
D. C. A list of the Superintendents of the Naval Academy since its foundation will be found on

678 Examinations Cot tjt (Consular cScrbCce*
In pursuance of the Executive order of June 27, 1906, whereby the President promul-
gated regulations governing appointments and promotions in the consular service, the
following rules have been adopted by the Board of Examiners, who, under that order,
have been designated to formulate rules for and hold examinations of applicants for ad-
mission to the consular service whom the President shall have designated for examination
to determine their eligibility for appointment therein:
1. The examinations will be the same for all grades and will be to determine a
candidate's eligibility for appointment in the consular service, irrespective of the grade
for which he may have been designated for examination and without regard to any
particular office for which he may be selected.
2. The examinations will consist of an oral and a written one. the two counting
equally. The object of the oral examination will be to determine the candidate's business
ability, alertness, general contemporary information, and natural fitness for the service,
including moral, mental and physical qualifications, character, address, and general educa-
tion and good command of English. In this part of the examination the applications
previously filed will be given due weight by the Board of Examiners, especially as evidence
of the applicant's business experience and ability. The written examination will include
those subjects mentioned in the Executive order, to wit, French, German, or Spanish . or at
least one modern language other than English; the natural, industrial and commercial
resources and the commei-ce of the United States, especially with reference to possibilities
of increasing and extending the foreign trade of the United States; political economy, and
the elements of international, commercial and maritime law. It will likewise include
American history, government, and institutions; political and commercial geography;
arithmetic (as used in commercial statistics, tariff calculations, exchange, accounts, etc.);
the modern history, since 1850, of Europe,' Latin America, and the Far East, with particu-
lar attention to political, commeix-ia.l and economic tendencies. In the written examina-
tion, composition, grammar, punctuation, spelling and writing will be given attention.
3. To become eligible for appointment, except as student interpreter, in a country
where the United States exercises extra territorial jurisdiction, the applicant must pass
the examination outlined above, but supplemented by questions to determine his knowledge
of the fundamental principles of common law, the rules of evidence, and the trial of
civil and criminal cases.
4. The examinations to be given candidates for appointment as student interpreters
will follow the same course as in the case of other consular officers, provided, however,
that no one will be examined for admission to the consular service as a student interpreter
who is not between the ages of nineteen and twenty-six. inclusive, and unmarried; and.
provided further, that upon appointment each student interpreter shall sign an agreement
to continue in the service so long as his services may be required, within a period of
ten years.
5. Upon the conclusion of the examinations the names of the candidates who shall
have attained upon the whole examination an average mai-k of at least eighty, as required
by the Executive order, will be certified by the Board to the Secretary of State as eligible
for appointment in the consular service, and the successful candidates will be informed

DUTIES OF CONSULAR OFFICERS.
Consular officei'S are expected to endeavor to maintain and promote all the rightful
interests of American citizens, and to protect them in all privileges provided for by treaty
or conceded by usage; to visa and, when so authorized, to issue passports; when permitted
by treaty, law, or usage, to take charge of and settle the personal estates of Americans
who may die abroad without legal or other representatives, and remit the proceeds to the
Treasury in case they are not called for by a legal representative within one year; to
ship, discharge, and, under certain conditions, maintain and send American seamen
to the United States; to settle disputes between masters and seamen of American vessels;
to investigate charges of mutiny or insubordination on the high seas and send mutineers
to the United States for trial; to render assistance in the case of wrecked or stranded
American vessels, and, in the absence of the master or other qualified person, take charge
of the wrecks and cargoes if permitted to do so by the laws of the country: to receive
the papers of American vessels arriving at foreign ports and deliver them after the dis-
charge of the obligations of the vessels toward the members of their crews, and upon the
production of clearances from the proper foreign port officials; to certify to the correct-
ness of the valuation of merchandise exported to the United States where the shipment
amounts to more than $100; to act as official witnesses to marriages of American citizens
abroad; to aid in the enforcement of the immigi-ation laws, and to certify to the correct-
ness of the certificates issued by Chinese and other officials to Chinese persons coming
to the United States; to protect the health of our seaports by reporting weekly the
sanitary and health conditions of the ports at which they reside, and by issuing to
vessels clearing for the United States bills of health describing the condition of the
ports, the vessels, crews, passengers, and cargoes; and to take depositions and perform
other acts which notaries public in the United States are authorized or required to perform.
A duty of prime importance is the promotion of American commerce by reporting avail-
able opportunities for the introduction of our products, aiding in the establishment
of relations between American and foreign commercial houses, and lending assistance
wherever practicable to the marketing of American merchandise abroad.
In addition to the foregoing duties, consular officers in China. Turkey, Siam. Korea.
Maskat, Morocco, and a few other so-called un-Christian countries, ai'e invested with
judicial powers over American citizens in those countries. These powers are usually
defined bj' treaty, but generally include the trial of civil cases to which Americans are
parties, and in some instances extend to the trial of criminal cases.

The hours for beginning theatrical performances in New York are dictated by the
length of the plays. Owing to the increasing lateness of the dinner hour in New York, the
beginning of theatrical performances is steadily growing later. Theatre-goers should consult
daily newspapers for the time of the rise of curtains, although the doors of all theatres
open at 7.30 P. M.
All New York theatres give Saturday matinees, the curtains rising at 2 P. M. Midweek
matinees are generally given on Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Thursdays, the day varying in
the cases of different attractions. Some of the popular-price theatres and the vaudeville
houses give dailv roatinees.
The standard price for best orchestra seats in New York theatres of the first class is
$2. The scale at these houses grades down to 50 cents for seats in the top balcony. Occa-
sionallv, when eminent foreign stars visit New York, $3 is charged for beat seats, the scale
being raised in equal ratio in the balconies. In most theatres of the first class seats may
be reserved in any part of the house. . .^ . . «,
The standard price for best orchestra seats in the so-called popular-price theatres is $1,
The scale in these houses grades down to 25 cents for seats in the top balcony. It is not
customary to reserve top balcony seats in these theatres. .,,,.: ^
The standard price for best orchestra seats at the Metropolitan and Manhattan Grand
Opera-Houses is $5. The scale at these houses grades down to $1 for seats in the top bal-
cony. At the Metropolitan Opera-House boxes are leased or subscribed for by the season.
Some of the privately owned boxes are valued at $100,000.
The New Theatre, now building at Central Park West and Sixty-second Street, will be,
it is claimed New York's nearest approach to an endowed theatre. Stock to the amount
of $2 000 000,' it is stated, has been subscribed for by capitalists and lovers of dramatic ait,
who announce that no return will be expected for their investment, and that the play-
house which will be devoted both to drama and opera comlque, will be conducted on alti-u-
istic lines A permanent stock company will be maintained; otherwise no definite policy
has been adopted. It is expected that the play-house will be opened to the public during
the season of lOO'o-lO. ^ ,, . . .,. ^ , *
It is true that many of the best seats in New York theatres fall into the hands of
ticket speculators, who hold them at premiums of from 25 to 200 per cent., according to the
popularitv of the attraction. Theatre ticket speculation is sanctioned by law in New
York, and speculators are licensed by the city government. Most theatres allow one lai-g«
agency large blocks of their best seats for sale at the hotels at a premium of oO cents eacn ;
but most theatre managers discountenance sidewalk speculation, although they are power-
less to prevent it. Many of them, however, frequently announce that tickets purchased of
sidewalk speculators will be refused at the door. •,,.., x x <- ♦• «
At 7 o'clock each evening the hotel agencies return unsold tickets to the respective
theatres, and good seats, even at ihe best patronized performances, can usually be obtained
at that hour. , j. x ^ • i ^
Seats may be reserved in advetnce at New York theatres from two to six weeks preced-
ing the date of use. In the caso of new productions, managers claim that they fill orders
in the order in which thev are received. Reservations by mail are filled for out-of-town
theatre-goers, but such orders must always be accompanied by a check or money order
covering the full amount of the price of such seats. ^ , , , ,, ., ■^■
In the number, beautv and convenience of its theatres New York leads all other cities
of the world except, perhaps, London. There are, however, in a few cities of Continental
Europe theatres under municipal or State endowment which, as works of architectural art.
are more beautiful than the best New York theatres. The New Amsterdam Theatre is the
most costly privatelv owned theatre in the world. The Hippodrome, seating 0,600 people,
is the largest theatre of its kind in the world. _ , , ^ .^ ^ ^r, . ^-u • . *
The Court of Appeals of the State of New York has decid^ that the proprietor of a
theatre has the right to decide who shall be admitted to witness the plays he sees fit to
produce in the absence of any express statute controlling his action. He derives from
the State no authority to carry on his business, and may conduct the same precisely as any
other private citizen mav transact his own affairs. But the holder of a ticket which
entitles him to a seat at a given time and place of amusement, being refused admission, is
entitled to recover the amount paid for the ticket and, undoubtedly, such necessary expenses
as were incurred in order to attend the performance.

OROANrzED April 5, 1768. Incorporated by George III. March 1.3. 1770. Reincorporated by
the State of New York April 13, 1784. Its object is indicated in the following words of the original
charter: "Sensible that numberless inestimable benefits have accrued to mankind from commerce;
that they are, in proportion to their greater or lessertipplication to it, more or less opulent and potent
in all countries; and that the enlargement of trade will vastly increase the value of real estates as well
as the general opulence of our said colony, ' ' and ' ' to carry into e.xecution, encourage, and promote,
by just and lawful ways and means, such measures as will'tend to promote and extend just and law-
ful commerce "
During the decade 1760-1770, according to Lord Sheffield's Ohxervalions. the average yearly value
of American Colonial imports from Great Britain was £1,763,409. and of exports to the same country
£1,044,591. Up to the evacuation of the city by the British and its occupation by the Americans, on
the 25th of November, 1783, the New York Chamber of Commerce had had seven presidents, thirteen
vice-presidents, eight treasurers, one secretary', and 135 members. In Mav. 1763, the Sandy Hook
Light-Hou.se was lighted up for the first time. In 178G the Chamber of Commerce first suggested the
construction of the Erie Canal, and in 1784 petitioned the New York Legislature (which so ordered)
that duties should be levied under a specific instead of an ad valorem tariff— a system of which the
Chamber of Commerce has ever since been the constant advocate.
As a society the Chamber of Commerce consists of fifteen hundred resident and two hundred and
fifty non-resident members. Initiatory fees have varied between the sum of ten Spanish dollars,
required in 1770, and $50. which is now demanded from every accepted candidate. Annual dues,
$50 per annum. Non-resident members, $25 per annum.
The building of the Chamber is at 65 Liberty Stneet, New York. O&cets: I^esideiU, J. Edward
Siimmoaa iSecrelary, George Wilson; Treasurer, James G. Cannou.

The existing subway systems consist of;
1— A four-track truuk line from City Hall Park, through Lafayette Street, 4th Avenue, 42d Street,
and Broadway, to 96th Street.
3— A two-track southern extension, from the City Hall loop, througk Broadway to South Ferr}'.
whence It is to connect with the tuuuei under tlie Kast liiver to the Brooklyn subway system now
under construction. This eiteusiou would now be in operation but for errors in construction in
the tunnel under the river.
The Brooklyn subway through Joralemon and Fulton Streets is practically ready. It prom-
ises to run cars from the Battery to the Flatbush Avenue terminal of the L,oug Island Railroad by
the first of 1908.
The rapid transit authorities of the city have contracted for an extension of the Brooklyn
subway system, Irom Flatbush and Atlantic Avenues along 4th Avenue to 65th Street, Bay
Ridge. The next step Is to continue the subway on 4th Avenue to Fort Hamilton, with a spur
from Bay Ridge to the West Knd of Coney Island. Ultimately the 4th Avenue subway will go

HOW MLN MAKE BIG SALARIES
By VICTOR FORTUNE
The Stoiy of Workers Who Make Their Work Pay B.g Dividends— How They Do It.
Does your work pay?
Not just day wages, but a good,
round, stiff salary.
If not, why don't you make it pay?
You see men about you who earn
dollars where you earn dimes, yet
they work no harder than you.
Why don't 3'ou make your work
count, too?
You can.
What makes the difference? Luck?
Not often. What then?
In one word — training.
To illustrate: A. M. Fowler,
Springfield, Mo., was a journeyman
pattern-maker when he faced the
proposition that now confronts you.
HOW ONE MAN DID IT.
His first step was to enroll for a
Mechanical Course in the Interna-
tional Correspondence Schools, Scran-
ton, Pa., an institution whose sole
business is to raise the salaries of
workers. Mr. Fowler is now General
Manager of the Phoenix Foundry and
Machine Company, Springfield, Mo.,
at an increase in salary of about 400
per cent.
In telling how he made liis work
count, he writes:
"I must say that I think the Inter-
national Correspondence Schools the
greatest boon existing for the work-
ing man. In my own experience, they
have been worth to me, without any
exaggeration whatever, tKousands of
dollars."
That is how one man did it. Take
another case: Russel Cooper, 2340
North Penn Street, Indianapolis, Ind.
Mr. Cooper was janitor of a church
at the time he enrolled for the Elec-
trical Course of the I. C. S. Within
two years he became Electrician in
charge of the Main Shop of the Ter-
minal Railroad Association of St.
Louis. He is now Superintendent of
the Indianapolis Light and Heat Com-
pany. He writes:
"My earnings are now over six
times as much as when I enrolled.
I and I can see even further progress
i ahead."
AN INCREASE OF 1,000 PER CENT.
How G. A. Collins made his work
pay would read like romance if it
were not actual fact. Mr. Collins
was a chainman with a Railroad
Maintenance of Ways Department at
the time of enrolling with the I. C. S.
After a few months he was promoted
to rodman, and then to transitman.
Not being satisfied, he resigned and
went into irrigation work for the
government. Now he has an office
of his own as Civil Engineer and, in
addition, is Chief Engineer of a large
coal company. He reports: "My
earnings have been increased during
this time nearly 1,000 per cent. I
can recommend your schools to any
ambitious and earnest man. The I. C.
S. is certainly a wonderful institu-
tion."
1,000 per cent, is a pretty fair re-
turn on the small investment re-
quired for an I. C. S. Course, isn't it?
Mr. Collins's address is 717 New
York Block, Seattle, Wash.
Here is the name and address of an-
other worker who made his work re-
turn big dividends with the aid of the
I. C. S., Joseph Cain, Searles, Ala.
When Mr. Cain enrolled for one of
the I. C. S. Mining Courses he was a
Mine Foreman at $90 p^r month. He
now holds the position of Mine Super-
intendent vich the Alabama Consoli-
dated Coal and Iron Company, at a
salary of $225 a month. Mr. Cain
says:
- "I know of no other method than
the I. C. S. by which a man can ad-
vance so quickly and surely."
Advancement quick and sure, right
where you are, is the record of I. C. S.
men throughout the world. At your
present work, without the loss of a
minute's time or a dollar's pay, the I.
C. S. takes you, trains you, and shows
you how to make that work pay, how
to advance in it, or how to change to
801
a more congenial occupation. The
I. C. S. can do this because it
has a staff of 2,700 people and an in-
vested capital of $6,000,000 devoted
to the express purpose of training
)'ou to make your work pay.
When a man who is willing to do
his part gets the I. C. S. organization
behind him, don't you think it ought
to help — a little f
Take, for instance, the case of a
young man like Wilson P. Hunt, Mo-
line, 111. While still a machinist's ap-
prentice, 2 0 ^^
years of age, /''
Mr. Hunt en- ^
rolled for the
M e c hanical
Course. O n
finishing the
course and
receiving his
diploma, h e
became a
d r a f tsman
and then a
machine d e -
signer. Later
he started
the M ol i n e
Tool C 0 m -
pany, Moline,
ill., becoming
Secretary and
S u p e r i n-
tendent of the
concern. The
I. C. S. sup-
plied just the
help needed
by Mr. Hunt
to realize his
ambition.
When Chas. E. Norberg, 1026 Al-
bany Street, Los Angeles, Cal., got in
line with the I. C. S., his income
began to increase in a most surpris-
ing way.
Mr. Norberg's remuneration as car-
penter was $3 a day when he enrolled
for the Architectural Course. He tells
us: "Previous to this I had only a
common school education, but the in-
struction given was so plain, so easy
to follow, and so practical that I have
now become a General Contractor,
and my earnings range from $75 to
$100 a week. The t. C. S. is certainly
a great blessing to the wage-earner."
What Mr. Norberg says about the
simplicity of his Instruction is char-
acteristic of all I. C. S. lessons and
text-books. They are easy to learn;
easy to remember ; easy to apply. Not
even a common school education is
required, only the ability to read and
write. But one obstacle can stand in
the way of the success of an I. C. S.
man — his own lack of ambition.
Still another Californian, who dates
his rise from his enrollment with the
L C. S., is Albert K. Harford, 854
Fifty-third Street, Oakland, Cal.
At the time of enrolling Mr. Har-
ford held the position of engine-room
storekeeper at $35 a month. Let him
tell what happened in his own words:
"For those who have to work for a
living, there is no better way of ad-
V a n c ement
than through
the I C. S.
Their

leut i n -

to anoth-
er rapid-
ly, and I

Foreman
M a chin-
ist for
the Pa-
cific Steamship Company, at a salary
of $130 per month."
WHAT A BRTCKLATRR DID.
Does training pay? Can you make
It pay? Ask Daniel K. Albright, 319
McKean Street, Kittanning, Pa. Mr.
Albright writes:
"TVh^n working- as a bricklayer at
bricklayers' wages, I was induced to
enroll in the I. C. S. After studying
nights, through the perfect manner
in which the schools carry on their
instruction, I was soon able to read
FROM APPRENTICE TO PROPRIETOR — GANG-DRILL NOW
MADE IN HIS OWN FACTORY.
80J
blueprints, and w^as appointed lore-
man at an increase of wages. "
Note that tlie I. C. S. taught him
not to work: harder, but to read
blueprints — trained him to malte his
work pay.
Was Mr. Albright satisfied with
this advance? Being a true I. C. S.
man — never! Hear the rest of (bis
letter:
"Resigning this position (fore-
man), I entered the employ of the
Kittanning Plate Glass Company, of
which firm I am now General Super-
intendent, and my earnings are now
nearly 600 per cent, more than when
I enrolled. The I. C. S. instruction
is so simple and easily understood
that any man may gain unsjeakable
good through it."
Knowing what he does now, how
much persuasion do you think would
be necessary to induce Mr. Albright
to enroll with the I. C. S., if he had
it to do over again?
WHAT WOULD PEKlSlUADE YOU?
If you were really awake to your
own interests, how much persuasion
do you think ought to be necessary
to induce you to write and ask how
the I. C. S. can help you?
But, you say, these men are excep-
tions. On the contrary, they are
cases picked at random out of thou-
sands of successful I. C. S. men. The
I. C. S. has gone to the trouble of
putting a thousand of their names
and addresses with their stories in a
book, which will be sent to you for
the asking. The I. C. S. organiza-
tion is so perfect that it reaches, in-
structs and trains these men in any
State of the Union or in any part
of the world.
Here is former street railway
worker T. T. Buzzill, care of J. E.
Henry & Son, Lincoln, N. H., who
writes:
"I knew nothing about electricity
when I took out my course in the
I. C. S. I now have charge of the tel-
ephones and lights for J. F. Henry &
Son, and my salary has been in-
increased 100 per cent. I would
never have been able to get above the
pit work in the power-house if it was
not for the instruction received from
the I. G. S."
Another New Englander, Harry E.
Green, Waterville, IMe., a former
transitman, writes:
"I now have an office of my own,
and have increased my earnings 200
per cent. My course has made me
more valuable to my customers, and
I have been enabled to understand
SCHOOL BUILDINGS OCCUPIED ENTIRBLY BY THE I. C. S,
803
many things which I could not have
learned otherwise. I will gladly cor-
respond with any one desiring to
better himself by taking a Course."
Henri B. Bixler, Akron, Ohio, a
former mill hand in a screen-door
factory, testifies:
"I have advanced to Superintend-
ent of Construction of the Tri-
County Telephone Company, and
have increased my earnings 250 per
cent. All th/3 success I attribute to
the I. C. S. I consider this method
of instruction the best plan in exist-
ence for the young man who has his
own way to make in the world."
A SURE AND QUICK WAY.
The I. C. S. gives a man who has
no regular trade or profession a pay-
ing start. Before enrolling with the
I. C. S., Harry M. Moxley, 1427 Wil-
liams Building, Cleveland, Ohio, was
ofSce boy, farmer boy, and painter
by turns. He writes:
"After I had gone a short way in
my Course, the Students' Aid Depart-
ment secured for me a position with
a firm in Cleveland, and from that
time I have had steady advancement
up to my present position as chemist
with the Cleveland Steel Casting
Company. During this time I in-
creased my earnings $80 a month. My
experience with the Schools proves
that the I. C. S. plan is the most
sure and quick way for any ambi-
tious man to gain advancement and
increased earnings."
The Students' Aid Department,
which helped Mr. Moxley to obtain a
higher position, is organized specifi-
cally to assist all I. C. S. men in
their efforts to make their work pay.
Its connection with the largest em-
ployers of trained men in the coun-
try has enabled it to place thousands
of men in better positions at larger
salaries. During 1906 voluntary re-
ports were received from 3,376 I. C. S.
men who had been advanced in salary
or position — only a traction of the
thousands who were advanced and did
not report. ^V^lat the I. C. S. did for
them, it can and will do for you.
ARE YOU GETTING YOURS?
This is an era of unexampled
wealth. These dozen men named are
just a few of the thousands whom
the I. C. S. has helped to place in
the stream of prosperity. They are
trained to get their share, and are
getting it.
Are you getting yours? If not,
why not? It's waiting for you!
The I. C. S. points the way, but
you must take the initiative. The
first step is yours. The expression
of willingness must come from you.
Are you willing to write to the I. C.
S, and ask to be shown how to make
your work pay? Or are you content
to sit back with small wages and let
your companions, who work no
harder than you, walk off with all
the rewards?
Bear in mind, no man need leave
his own State, or town, or work.
Right where he is, the I. C. S. is
most valuable. It goes to the man,
stands by him, works with him and
for him, equipping him to secure
that due share to which his energy
and talents entitle him.

THE ANATOMY OF A PIANO
WQnderful Method of Construction Employed in Modern Labor Utopia,
where it takes years to make a single instrument.
EVERY now and -then some sociologist discovers a certain labor Utopia, •whose
abiding place is in the Middle Western States. The said Utopia is a giant
factory where hundreds are employed and where the workers are treated
much as members of one big family. Hardly a newspaper or magazine in the
whole country but which has at times commented upon the existence of the great
Western factory, dwelling at length upon the fellowship that exists among all the
KaaoHKaaai
RIKER AVENUE FACTORY.
RIM-BENDING DEPARTMENT, SHOWING ORIGINAL, METHOD OF DOING THIS
WORK, WHICH GIVES SUCH EXCELLENT RESULTS THAT IT HAS
NEVER BEEN CHANGED.
men and women employed therein. So widely "hias this Western factory been
exploited that the public has possibly reached the conclusion that it is the only
model factory in the world. Such is not the case.
As a matter of civic pride, a search has been made of New York, and a mate,
if not a superior, to the Western Utopia has been discovered by the World. It is
a mammoth piano factory, or, rather, a series of piano factories, operated by one
company— Steinway & Sons. The great factories of this famous old piano manu-
805
facturing concern are real models in every sense of the word, and they are the
cleanest factories in the world.
REMARKABLE CONDITIONS OF MANUFACTURE.
Everyone, of course, knows the international reputation of the Steinway piano,
al'though but few know of how it is made and under What remarkable conditions
it is prepared for the grand service to which it is eventually put. It will therefore
be the object of this article to carry the reader through the wonderful workrooms
of the Steinway model factories, showing as clearly as possible just what goes
into a Steinway piano and why its place of manufacture is the certain realization
of the Utopian dream.
There are three Steinway factories in New York. Two of them are located at
Steinway, Long Island, a booming little town just opposite and paralleling the
U'pper eastern section of Manhattan. The site of Steinway compriges about four
■hundred acres, which immense tract was purchased by the original Steiniway
about fifty years ago. At that time the ground was only nominal in value, but
to-day it is worth millions of dollars.
THE PIANO'S ORIGINAL. HOME.
The third factory, which was the original Steinway factory, is located in Man-
hattan, a/t the corner of Fifty-third Street and Park Avenue. It has been standing
for fifty years, and, although at one time all Steinway pianos were manufactured
under its roof, it is now used only as a finishing factory, while the operation of
manufacture begins at Steinway, at what is known as the Riker Avenue factory.
From this factory it proceeds to the Ditmars Avenue factory, which is a mile
distant, and thence to the Manhattan finishing factory.
At the Riker Avenue factory site are also located the immense lumber yards
of Steinway & Sons, possibly the most remarkable lumber yards in the world. It
is well known, of course, that lumber composes the main parts of a piano, and
consequently the utmost care is employea in its selection and care.
In the construction of the Steinway piano about twenty different kinds of
lumber are used, and more than six million feet are always on hand in the
yards. The method of seasoning the lumber is unique. It remains in the yards
and sheds for from five to ten years before it is ready to be used for piano parts.
This means that the manufacturers have constantly tied up in lumber alone a
sum of money approximating half a million dollars. As the lumber is used, it is
immediately replaced, so that at all times the j'ard is full.
COMPARED TO A MOTHER'S LOVE.
The care taken of the Steinway lumber may be compared to that of a mother
for a child. In the first place, it is a well-known fact among those conversant
with the making of pianos that the house of Steinway pays a substantial bonus
to owners of lumber yards for the privilege of having its buyers take their pick
of the lumber before any one else has an opportunity to get at it. In this way
the finest lumber is obtained exclusively by the Steinways.
The Steinway lumber buyers are no doubt the best judges of piano lumber in-
the world. They go into a lumber yard and examine every plank minutely. Select-
ing just exactly what they want, they keep guard over it until it is delivered
safely into the Steinway yards at the Riker Avenue factory. As soon as it reaches
this destination each plank is recorded, just the same as a bank cashier would
record dollars. Then the lumber is piled, and across the end of each plank a small
strip of wood is nailed so that the plank is prevented from checking. In addition,
the date of its reception is stamped upon the plank, as well as the name of the
buyer.
REMAIN IN LUMBER YARDS FOR YEARS.
Some of these planks remain in the yard for years before they are regarded
806
as perfect enough to start on their way through a seasoning shed, where they
remain on an average of about two years, and thence through a series of drying
kilns. After making the proper test, a test which is secret, by the way. In the
drying kilns, the lumber is ready to become a part of a Steinway piano, but it Is
many months, land sometimes years, before it is finally put out as the finished
Steinway piano.
It is little w^onder, in view of the lumber preparation, that a Steinwa3' piano
lasts perfectly through several generations. In fact, a very considerable part of
the reputation of the Steinway piano is based upon the preparatory treatment of
lumber, •
At the cost of about $100,000 an immense lumber shed was erected at the Riker
Avenue plant, the only lumber shed of its kind in the world. It has an area of
AN ALLEY OF LUMBER AT RIKER AVENUE PLANT, WORTH HALF A MILLION
DOLLARS.
I
27,000 square feet, with a capacity of about five million feet of lumber. The shed
is built on open pillar work, with open work under its roof, so that at all times
there is perfect circulation of air, as well as protection from rain, etc.
GLUE A VERY IMPORTANT FACTOR.
Glue plays a very important part in the making of a piano. It may be sur-
prising to know that, although the Steinways for fifty-four years have used only
the Peter Cooper glue, every shipment of glue received at the factories is sub-
jected to a chemical analysis, and unless it conforms perfectly to such a test it
is thrown out.
A .similar test is made of the mixture of iron, which, as used to-day, is iden-
tically the same as that used forty years ago, and which has never been improved
807
upon. This mixture of iron is used for making the plat^, and has a transverse
strength of between 42,000 and 48,000 pounds to the square inch.
All the tests are made in the offices of Mr. A. J. Menal, who is in charge of
the Hiker Avenue factory, and who has been making Steinway pianos for twenty-
five years, and is an expert in every sense of the word,
AN ENTIRE ABSENCE OF "HUSTLE."
One thing very noticeable as one goes through the Steinway factories is the entire
absence of hurry on the part of the workmen. They take plenty of time in pre-
paring the wood products, and do not allow themselves to be disturbed in any
way while at their tasks. They are not urged to make haste, and would probably
rebel if they were required to relinquish their work before they, and not the fore-
man, were satisfied with it. Nearly all of these men have been making Steinway
piianos for years. Many of them began as boys and are now grown old in the
service. It is not uncommon to meet men who have been there thirty or forty
years, and some who have spent half a century there. As one old gentleman
put it:
"We never think of leaving. "We live and die right here.'*
A great many of the men now thirty and forty years in the Steinway fac-
tories followed in the footsteps of their fathers, many of whom came to this
country at the behest of the first Steinway, from Germany.
MANY BUILDINGS MAKE VAST PLANT.
The Riker Avenue factory, complete, includes a two-story administration build-
ing, a five-s'tory piano case factory, a four-story drying kiln, a two-story sawmill,
a three-story metal factory, a foundry, a plate-casting storage building, a plate-
casting shop, a plate-japanning and bronzing shop, a glue-boiler-house, three
lumber storage buildings, a boiler-house, a pump-house, a coal and coke shed,
and a foundry sand shed. One hundred and twenty-two machines are in use in
the cabinet and metal shop. They are driven by 9,000 feet of belting.
Nearly five hundred men are employed at the Riker Avenue factory, who fur-
nish about $1,000,000 worth of the raw product to the Ditmars Avenue factory,
where the next steps are taken in building the Steinway pianos.
In the Ditmars Avenue factory the piano cases are assembled, the sounding-
boards placed in them, and the varnishing done. This factory covers several city
blocks and is three stories high. The sounding-boards are made in this factory.
There are some wonderful machines to be found here. The immense rubbing
machines are so perfect that they do the -fine rubbing equally as well as could be
done by hand. The varnishing process in vogue is the most thorough and com-
plete to be found anywhere.
GOING THROUGH THE VARNISH ROOMS.
Every grand piano case receives six coats of varnish. After the varnishing
has been completed the pianos are put away for two or three months, and then
they are ready to be rubbed. And such a rubbing they do get! They are rubbed
until they are as smooth and as brilliant as a mirror, and when the rubbers are
through with them they get the last coat of varnish, technically known as the
"flowing coat," and then, after drying several days, they are sent to the big fac-
tory in Manhattan where the action and keys are placed in them and all the fine
work necessary to make them playable is done. Here also the cases are hand
polished.
After going through several departments the pianos reach the finishing floor,
which is in charge of Mr. Otto Koch, who is seventy-five years old, and who has
been making Steinway pianos for more than fifty years. He has seen more Stein-
way pianos made than any other living man. Mr. Koch came to this country
shortly afler the founder of the Steinway house, and from tVie first day he landed
here until the present time he has been employed In the Steinway factories.
EVERT FOREMAN HAS AN "UNDERSTUDY."
While every department In the Steinway factories Is presided over by men who
have devoted their lives to making the famous piano, each executive has an
808
understudy, so to speak, and in the event of illness or death of any of the heads
of departments their places are immediately filled by men who have studied under
tliem and who are capable of carrying on the work without the slightest deviation
from the original plan.
In all the Steinway factories, including: the Immense export factory which la
located at Hamburg, Germany, there are about 2,000 men employed, and every
man is as loyal to the house as though it were his own. They all seem proud of
their connection with the firm, and regard their work as a labor of love. Harmony
prevails 'throughout the great Steinway industry from the heads of the house
down to the lowliest employee.
There are about 6,000 Steinway pianos made annually. Four thousand are made
here, averaging 2,4(X) grands and 1,600 uprights, and 2,000 are made at Hamburg.
HOW A SOUNDING-BOARD IS MADE.
The sounding-boards that go into the Steinway pianos are doubtless the best
in the world. This part of a piano must be perfect, and the manner of making
them is very costly because of the waste necessary.
The Steinway sounding-boards are made in the Ditmars Avenue factory. There
is one man, a grizzled old fellow, In this factory who has been selecting the lumber

for the sounding-boards for many years. He does nothing else. The sounding-
boards are made of about seventeen small boards, but when they are finished and
placed in the pianos they look like a single board, so perfectly are the small pieces
mated. In matching the small boards the expert in charge tlirows out nearly half
of them, because they do not conform as to grain and color. The boards thus
809
thrown out, despite the fact that they have been in treatment for years, are an
utter loss, so far as the sounding-boards are concerned. The sounding-boards are
alwaj's made of spruce lumber.
When the sounding-boards are placed in the pianos and fastened to the plate,
the inside of a Steinway piano is as though it were made entirely of one huge
piece. This is due to the many patented devices controlled by the Steinway house,
•which have been the result of years of experiment.
IDEAS OF FOUNDER ARE STOLEN.
When the original Steinway came to this country and began the manufacture
of pianos— some fifty-five years ago— he failed to secure patents upon several of

FINISHING FACTORY.
his great improvements, with the result that many competitors appropriated his
Ideas and began the manufacture of "imitation Steinways," for commercial pur-
poses alone, with the result that the strictly commercial piano came into being,
and is to-day sold by the thousands to persons who know a piano only by its
outside appearance, and cannot understand why the Steinways demand such a
good pince for their product when something that "looks as nice" can be obtained
for much less.
Some of these commercial pianos are made from lumber that is not seasoned
two weeks, and in many cases actually fall apart after being used a short time.
Such pianos are merely "assembled." For instance, a commercial piano manu-
facturer, who is after only the money, buys his piano cases of one firm, his plates
of another, his action and keys of a third, and so on until he acquires all the
parts. Then he throws them together after a fashion, and they are ready for sale.
This sort of manufaoturer seldom puts his own name on his "assembled" products.
810
He puts them out under what is known as a "stencil name," or he will put a
dealer's name on the piano, and the dealer palms it off, in many cases, as a high-
class piano that is made especially for his esthetic trade.
MUCH TRICKERY TO ENSNARE THE INNOCENTS.
There is more trickery in the piano industry from the commercial standpoint
than in any other, and it behooves the innocent purchaser to be sure of his ground
before he undertakes the purchase of a piano.
The Steinways are the only pia^'o manufacturers in the world who make every
component part of their piano. This principle was established by the founder
of the house, and has been rigidly adhered to ever since.
The history of the Steinway family, founders of one of the greatest industries
800 GRAND PIANOS IN ONE ROW AT DITMARS AVENUE PLANT.
In the world, -is an interesti..g one. There are at the present time seven members
of the Steinway blood conducting the^ business of the firm and perpetuating the
Steinway traditions.
ROMANTIC HISTORY OF FIRST GENIUS.
The first Steinway to build a piano was Henry Engelhard Steinway, who was
born February 15, 1797, in Wolfshagen, a forest town of the Hartz Mountains, in
t'he Grand Duchy of Brunswick, Germany. He came of a family of soldiers, many
of 'Whom had gained high distinction in the army. Owing to war and a domestic
tragedy, he found himself the sole survivor of his family at tlie age of fifteen and
without means. His father and three older brothers had been struck dead by a
bolt of lightning while he was walking with them in a forest. He was unhurt by
the horror, many believers in Destiny lo this day believing that he was saved that
he miglit perform, a greater service to the world.
Penniless and homeless, the young man entered the army, where he served
811
until he was twenty-one, when he was honorably discharged. After leaving the
army he settled in tne hamlet of Seesen, at the foot of the Hartz Mountains. He
married in 1825, and a year later his first child, a son, was born. This boy was
chfistened C. F. Theodore Steinway, and he afterward became the great piano
scientist and inventive genius who designed the world-famed Steinway grands.
AMBITION FOR HIS FIRST SON.
Henry E. fcteinway had always been a lover of music, and was somewhat of a
musician. Upon the birth of his son his greatest am'bitlon was that the boy
should become a musician, and, being a cabinet-maker, he set to work at once to
build a piano upon which the lad was to learn to play. He worked day and night
upon the instrument, and when it was completed he was the proudest father in
the world. He had no thought of becoming a piano manufacturer at that time,
and it was not until one of the rich men of the town saw and heard his piano
that Steinway began to see a future in the piano trade. Insteacl of tlie piano
becoming an instrument for his son to play, it was sold for a high price, and
Steinway at once entered into the business of manufacturing pianos. He improved
upon every piano of that day, and raised the status of the instrument from a state
of almost worthlessness to a standard that attracted the attention of the civilized
world.
A LARGE AND HAPPY FAMILY.
For many years Henry E. Steinway continued a piano manufacturer in Seesen,
and became the father of a large and happy family. The second child born was
a girl, Doretta Steinway, who later became the mother of Henry Ziegler, at pres-
ent the head of the Department of Inventions and Construction of the Steinway
industry. His next child was Charles Steinway. the father of Charles H. Steinway,
now president of Steinway & Sons; of Frederick T. Steinway, now vice-president
of the company, and of Henry W, T. Steinway. The next child was Henry Stein-
way, Jr., and then came Wilhelmina, the second daughter of the founder of the
Steinway house.
William Steinway twas the next born, and then came Albert Steinway, the last
of the seven children, every one of whom was to play an important part in the
great business 'their father had founded.
The revolution of 1S48 greatly crippled the business of Henry E. Steinway in
Germany, and he decided to emigrate to America. Careful in all things, he decided
to investigate the new country before making the move, and in 1849 he sent his
second son, Charles Steinway, to this country on a tour of inspection. The y-oung
man's reports to his father were so favorable that the entire family, with the
exception of C. F. Theodore Steinway, came to the United States. C. F. Theodore
remained behind to complete unfinished work, and in a few years more he joined
his father and brothers in this country.
FATHER AND SONS BECOME JOURNEYMEN.
For three years Steinway and his boys worked as journeymen in piano fac-
tories here in order that they might leai-n the exact conditions existing in this
country, and then they started the business which has been the most wonderful
in all the piano industry.
An insignificant building on old Varick Street was the first Steinway factory
in this country. The first pianos made here and turned out from the Varick
Street factory created a furore among the Americans. It was not long after their
first efforts that the Stein ways were famous all over the world. They moved to a
larger factory on Walker Street, and then, a short time afterward, built the New
York City factory at Fifty-third Street and Park Avenue.
The Stein ways invented the "overstrung system" for the piano. They invented
other great improvements that made the tone of their pianos superior to all others.
The crowned heads of Europe, by royal warrant, Hppointed the Steinways as
ei3
makers of their pianos, and they are still nialcin^ tlie pianos used in the homes of
royalty, as well as for the greatest musicians of tlie times.
BOYS COMPELLED TO WORK AS APPRENTICES.
Henry E. Steinway compelled every one Of his sons to go into the factory and
learn how to build a Steinway piano. They in turn compelled their sons to work
at the bench until tliey were capable of tuj-niug out the perfect Steinway. In this
manner the great liouse lias continued to develop members of the blood, and con-
sequentlj' the pianos are made according to the precepts of the originators.
The sons of the present generation learned the trade at the bench. They were
taken into the big factories as mere apprentice boys and, under hard taskmasters,
were required to learn every step of the piano-building business. Each of the

boys graduated, and, in addition to their proficiency in piano building, they were
all given a thorough education in music. These boys of the present generation
are preparing to take the reins of their elders, and in future years will guide the
destinies of the house.
SEVEN MEMBERS OF THE BLOOD NOW ACTIVE.
The seven members of the Steinway blood who are now actively engaged in
conducting the affairs of the company are Charles H. Steinway, President; Fred-
erick T. Steinway, Head of the Department of Manufacture; Henry Ziegler, Head
of the Department of Inventions and Construction; William R. Steinway, Assistant
to President Charles H. Steinway; Theodore E. Steinway, Theodore Cassebeer, and

AN EXQUISITE MUSICAL INSTRUMENT
WITHIN REACH OF YOUR PURSE.
THE Laffargue Piano is pre-eminently a high-grade instrument at a moderate cost.
In its manufacture no detail has been considered too small to be overlooked by the
manufacturers. Each particle of material that enters into its construction is thor-
oughly examined, and, unless reaching the required high standard of excellence, is rejected;
so that a purchaser of a Laffargue Piano may rest content that there is no better instru-
ment on the market.
The firm that makes the piano takes pride In putting only the best products of up-to-
date science into it. The same uniform care is used in selecting the material, whether it be
the plate, the soundboard, or the wires, or the case, the action keys or any other part.
A point regarding which particular attention is paid, and which has much to do in
producing the perfect musical tone of the piano, is the testing that is made of all its
materials. When once the perfect material is found it is never changed for a cheaper
quality. The resulting tonal qualities, therefore, never vary, and one Laffargue Piano is
of the same lofty standard of perfection as every other one.
One of the most noteworthy features of the piano is its durability. It has an unex-
celled reputation for wearing well and for standing long in tune. In order that these high
attributes may continue, the heads of the firm have always given to each instrument built
at the factory their personal supervision. No piano is ever shipped out of the company's
plant that has not received this careful inspection. It is a matter of congratulation among
the firm's chiefs that the established fame of their instruments, as undoubtedly the best
value for the money, is still maintained.
"WTiile the firm has turned out a most beautiful looking piano, the directors adhere to
the principle that such an instrument should not be selected for its looks, but for its
durability and quality, so that it is a cardinal rule with them never to sacrifice tone and
lasting qualities to mere outward appearance.
Eminent musicians have frequently commented on what they term "the unrivalled tone"
of the Laffargue Pianos. The firm explains this splendid feature by the care that the
scale receives. It was only after the most untiring efforts that this perfection of the scale
was attained. The musical and refined treble, the long vibrating and single qualities, and
the full and smooth bass, found only in the very best makes of pianos, are accentuated in
these instruments, where they are found in their fullest measure.
This firm makes a special point of having its employees masters of* their craft. Great
care is taken in selecting men to do the delicate work required in the building of these
pia/ios, as a bungler might spoil the best efforts of his co-workers. The men are put
through a thorough examination before they are permitted in the factory.
And now a word about the Laffargue Piano Player. This is an ideal instrument for
the home. It combines the piano and the automatic player in such harmony that every
shade of music, from the most delicate pianissimo to the most intense forte, is equally at
its command. The automatic control is perfection, and by its intelligent use the rendition
of the most classical compositions is easy. The adjustments of the mechanical parts of the
Player are so cleverly contrived that even a child may find no difficulty in playing the
instrument. A feature of the Player is that it retains all the famous singing qualities for
which the Laffargue Piano is distinguished.
So highly does the firm think of its piano that with each sale of one it gives to the
purchaser a guarantee for six years, agreeing to put it in good repair at the factory, pro-
vided the instrument has not been subjected to abuse.
An inspection of the Laffargue factory is most interesting. To see the men actually at
work putting into the case the wires and other parts is an impressive sight. One cannot
but be struck by the great care and pains taken to have everything just right. One may
well say, when he sees these clever experts at work, that they are all geniuses, for they
have "such an infinite capacity for taking pains," which is the accepted definition of a
genius.
The makers of this instrument are always pleased to send information, catalogues, etc.,
to inquirers. The company's firm name is Laffargue & Co., and their factory and main
office is at One Hundred and Thirty-fourth street and Southern Boulevard, New York.

An Old Musical Enterprise tbat Keeps ia the \
Van of Modern Triaipbs and Achievenients.'
WHEN a musical instrument has stood the test of time and has steadily gained in
popularity and sales throughout a long term of years, sterling merit ia behind this
triumph. History tells us that it is only the fittest that survive, and this is as
true of musical instruments as it is of races of mankind. The Behning Piano is an instru-
ment that, placed on the market years ago, has steadily won its way to the foremost ranks
of the trade, and each year sees more of these splendid pianos sold.
The Behning Piano is one of the oiaes.t makes in the country. It is noted for its
exceptional wearing qualities. In tonal quality, in sweet, singing properties, it is at the
very summit of the piano making art. In appearance it is very handsome, and both quality
of looks and quality of musical tone are of the kind that endure. This piano will stay in
tune longer than any other on the market with proper care. i
Since the company first began to manufacture pianos it has made it a maxim of its
busirfess policy to keep in the very fore of the development of the piano-making science.
Whatever new was discovered or invented that was found superior to the old in helping
to turn out a perfect instrument was at once adopted, extra cost not being considered at all.
The object ha?s always bfeen to produce the most perfect musical instrument possible, the
question of expensfe being of mirror importance in the eyes of the firm. At the same time,
the cost to the purchaser has been kept down to the lowest possible point, so that in the
Behning Piano there is more value than is to be found in other makes.
With it-s progressive policy, it was most natural that the company should take up the
Playc-Piano when tlie invention first appeared on the musical horizon. At once the firm
went to work to turn out the most perfect Player-Piano that could be made, experts being
sent wherever in the world the development of these inventions could be studied to the best
advantage. In these pianos the player part comes in the natural size piano, and is the
only one that does. This is not true of any other make.
There is no weakening of any of the parts of the piano in cutting down the thickness
of the back, which other players exit down from one-half to three-quarters. The player-
action can be taken out in less than a half-minute's time, exposing all the strings, so that
a new string can be readily put in. This accessibility riiakes the instrument very handy
for tuners to get at. It is very easy to produce the slightest pianissimo effect, and pressure
with the feet in an instant brings out the fortissimo.
The company makes a specialty of pro^'iding for the needs of persons who dwell in
smaM quarters. ■ The firm manufactures the smallest Player-Piano on the market, as well
as the larger sizes. It makes one as small as four feet four inches in heie-ht by twenty-
six inches in dept(h. Another convenient size that is much sought is four feet eight and a
half inches in height by twenty-seven in depth.
A recapitulation of *he peculiar advantages of the Behning Player-Piano are: There
is no increase In the size of the case; no decrease in the thickness of the back; it pumps
as easily as it can be taken apart; the entire piano is accessible for tuning, voicing, regu-
lating, and replacing of broken strings.
In producing what they consider the most perfect Player-Piano on the rnarket the
officials of the Behning Piano Company ha\'e had in mind the growth of the musical spirit
in America. They say that only men in the trade have an adequate conception of the
widespread interest in music in this country, and they are convinced that this means
that" America wiH soon take the leading role in the musical world. There is a demand for
good music on far Western plains, amid fastnesses of the Sierra Madre Mountains of New
Mexico, and in the cabins of Alaskan miners. The demand throughout the middle West
and the South is very great and constantly increasing. In the cities of the North. Middle,
and the New England States it is enormous. The reason that the popularity of the Behning
Player-Piano in all these sections is so great is that it does not get out of order and is so
easily manipulated. Should any repairing be required, the construction is such that it can
be done with very little trouble and expense. The durability of the Player-Piano insures Its
lasting for years, a lifetime with ordinary attention.
The Behning Piano Company, whose headquarters are at One Hundred and Thirty-first
Street and Park Avenue, New York City, always is pleased to give all particulars and
Information desired.

The Krakauer Piano is the Product of Musical Genius
FOR thirty-five years the Krakauer
Piano has held its place at the head
of the piano procession. It is an
epitome of all that is best in a high-class
musical instrument. There is no piano
made that is its superior in mechanical
perfection, in tone, in lasting qualities. It
is a piano with a soul, as well as a body.
A musician who sits down before it and
touches a chord instantly finds inspira-

The business of the Krakauer Piano had its inception under somewhat different
auspices from business concerns of to-day. The Krakauer family was one with a talent
for music. They were natural musicians. In addition, they had practical ideas about
piano-making. They wanted to make an instrument that would interpret music to
the best advantage. They made some on these advanced lines, and it was so superior to
other pianos that they determined to go in business more extensively. The result is
that to-day the most refined homes in the United States and other countries are equipped
with a Krakauer Piano.
No better tribute to the excellence of the Krakauer Piano is possible than the
enormous popularity that it has gained. Never, since the firm of Krakauer Bros, was
formed, has it been able to make enough of its pianos to keep up to the demand. There
have always been sheaves of orders waiting to be filled. And they are filled, with as
little delay as possible, and it is an invariable experience that the purchasers write en-
thusiastically to the manufacturers extolling the merits of the instrument.
The Krakauer business has grown so fast that it is now second to none in its line.
The factory where the pianos are made is a huge structure, and the State Inspectors
have pronounced it the best equipped, the most substantial and perfectly adapted to
its needs of any piano factory in the great Empire State.
The men who make the various complicated parts that go into the being of this
piano are all leading experts of their several lines. They must have passed a crucial test
before they can obtain a place among the brilliant staff of expert workmen. They are
all under the personal supervision of the President of the Company, Mr. Julius Krakauer,
himself a finished musician.
Besides their rare tone qualities and the absolute perfection of the mechanical
working of the Krakauer Pianos, they are beautiful instruments and add charm to the
most exquisitely furnished apartments. Their possession is an indication of the refine-
ment of a household.
The prices of the Krakauer Pianos vary from $400 to $575, in the cabinet variety,
and from $650 to $750 in the grands, according to size. They are the biggest value for
the money that can be found in the piano trade. The absolute minimum price is
clmrged that will enable the Company to put the instruments on the market. It is con-
scientiously stated that no greater musical bargain can be found in the world than a
Krakauer Piano. This piano will last a lifetime and will retain its vigor and rich tonal
qualities during all the years of its use.
In sending your order, kindly specify the date at which you must hiive the piano,
in order that we may use all haste in getting it to you, as our orders on hand are
sufficient to keep our factory busy for months ahead.
The Krakauer catalogues wiUexplain in detail the perfection of these instruments
and form interesting reading for the music lover.

HOW A MUSICAL FAMILY PUT ITS
GENIUS TO PRACTICAL USE
TRAITS, mental and physical, are Inherited. We all know how some quality of an
ancestor, perhaps many generations back, will crop out in a descendant. The
descendants of a seafaring family, though themselves born in the interior, have
an eager longing for the sea — they are happier dwelling on the seacoast thaa
among the mountains away from it.
Just so does the love of music run in families. The famous Decker family, of New
York, is an instance of this. Music has been the diversion of generations of the Decker
family. It is a talent handed down from father to son. It was most natural, therefore,
that the Decker family, when seeking a business, should turn instinctively to the manu-
facture of a musical instrument that should embody all the elements desired by a thorough
musician. The late Myron A. Dicker, founder of the house of Decker & Son, was a
musical genius. He criticised various faults in the pianos of the day. and was seized
with the ambition to make a perfect musical instrument. For thi^ purpose he made a
deep study of piano-making in all its branches. With this knowledge, superimposed upon
a thorough musical education, he set to work to produce the perfect piano.
Just as he studied harmony at the conservatory so he studied the art of making
piano wire, gained a complete knowledge of which woods were the best to enhance the
tone of the instrument, of how these woods could be seasoned to the best possible advan-
tage. Every mechanical device for improving the quality of a piano was mastered by
hjm, and all this wisdom he handed down to his son, the present head of the firm, Mr.
Frank C. Decker. Mr. Frank C. Decker, in turn, is handing this knowledge down to his
son, Frank C. Decker, Jr.
The result is that these musicians turn out an instrument that is wonderful In tone,
in touch, in richness of volume, in durability, in the elements that go to make a perfect
piano. Nor must the beauty of the instrument be overlooked. Its superb case construction,
its graceful outlines, its beautiful finish, that appeal to the eye of the artist, make it an
acquisition for any home.
Piano making has advanced to such a perfect science that there has been a distinct
growth in the musical talent of the American public. The statistics of musical colleges
and conservatories prove this. Decker & Sons, Nos. 699-703 East One Hundred and
Thirty-fifth Street. New York, have done a great share in spreading this talent throughout
the country by the appealing qualities of their instruments.

THE H. B. CLAFLIN COMPANY
IN the heart of the "dry goods di"?trict" of New York stands a business house that
is pre-eminentl> above its neighboring business houses. It is more than a mercan-
tile establishment. It is an institution. If there were a truly competent system
of guides to New York, as there is in all the greater cities of Europe, the tourist
would be taken to this corner and shown the house of The H. B. Clafiin Companj% at
Church and Worth streets, as one of the things not to be missed in even a hurried
inspection of the sights to be seen in the greatest American city.
For this is a clearing-house of the whole dry goods busine-:s, East. West, North,
and Routh, for the wholo United States. That is not to say that every merchant
who conies to town buys all his goods in this one place. It does mean that scarcely
a merchant comes to New York without visiting this house, and that every such
merchant's visit means the sale of a bill of goods. That would mean a highly de-
sirable state of trade to any other house, and one upon which most mercantile estab-
lishments would be content to limit their business. Not so here.
There are hundreds of great manufacturing concerns that require one speciil
thing which is "out of their line." Many ^hoe manufacturers buy annually a great
quantity of a fabric suitable for the lining of shoes from this concern. In the South
the great plantations which ship to New York vegetables grown out o? the New York
«;eason protect their growing crops on chilly nights with a thick muslin cloth. These
planters order thousands and thousands of yards from this establishment of that
particular cloth. Harness-makers call upon this samo niarket for no end of things.
whicAi either go into their finished products or which are demanded by their trade.
These illustrations merely serve to make the fact known that hardly a large manu-
facturer in the United State? markets his product without having bought an immense
quantity of soTne special line of goods out of this universal mart. These are a few
instances of which people in general would not think, and it is not necessary to
mention the thousands of manufacturers whose products are more particularly in the
line of goods that this house carries, such as waist manufacturers, skirt manufacturers,
garment manufacturers of all sort.=?. end, in fact, any into whose finished product cotton
or woollen fabrics enter.
The United States, through various bureaus which bear upon commerce, even
including the State Department. Ihas taken immense pains to develop an export trade
for the benefit of the merchants and manufacturers of the whole country. It has
been seen that no small part of tie circumstances which culminated in the greatest
war of our time — ^that between Russia and Japan — ^was the negotiations undertaken
by the Arcerican Secretary of State, Mr. Hay, for securing a market open to all
traders of the whole world in Manchuria. The H. B. Clafllin Company ,was, interested
above all American traders, perh.^ps above all European traders, in Mr..,Ji»^!s success-,
ful efforts to establisli the principle that not Russia, nor Germany, nor France., .jior
•818 ''
England, nor even the IJBited States might be able to fence off so large a nortlon
of the world trom the open tradin? privileges of all merchants and all parts of th.e
world. This great house has intimate and steadfast relations with the great distributing
centres of the Chinese Empire, having opened, within the last few years, channels
of trade with the largest operating firms, with which the Claflln house loes a direct
business, iustead of, as formerly done, the Chinese business through Its ManchCfcter
house. This trade has grown to an enormous extent. The firm also ships immense
quantities of goods to all European ports. The firm sells to dealers all over the United
States, to the largest houses as well as the smallest. The struggling young merchant
in a country town who is ambitious comes to Claflin's for aid and advice.
Horace B. Claflin, as a young man. established a retail dry goods business in 1831,
and "^ot up in the year after a branch at Worcester, Mass. Mr. Claflin and his
brother-in-lc^w, 'v^t'O wag his partner, developed a business that outgrew the partner-
ship. In 1S'?3 Mr. Claflin took the "Worcester house and devoted the next ten years
of his career to that business. Advertising was a new science in those days, but
Claflin made the most of it. He devised new methods of extending his business. He
"did things" that other merchants had never thought of doing. Boston at that time
monopolized • the whole business in New England. New York, then a city of less
thnn 100,000 population, was coming to be Boston's rival. His business grew. Rival
merchants, who had predicted failure, saw he was right and followed his example.
The Boston dealers, seeing their trade carried away, began to try to outbid the favor-
able terms of New York. The germ of the Claflin house of this day was in the policy
that these conditions forced iipon the minr! of the young merchant of Worcester.
In 1843 he found Worcester a iilace ttat he had outgrown and came to New York
and with William P. Bulkley started the wholesale dry goods business of Bulkley &
Claflin at No. W Cedar street. The partners had a cash capital of $30,000. and each
owned property outside of his individual share in the business. Those were times
when a business man worth $30,000 wus a considerable personage in the community.
Cedar street was at that time the centre of the dry goods business. New York grew
and the house grew witn it, so that in seven years the young merchants had to look
for a place in the new centre. They settled at No. 57 Broadway in 1850. A year
later Mr. flulklev had retired w;th a comfortable fortune. Claflin formed a new
partnership with William H. Mellen and several juniors of the old house, under the
firm nome of Claflin, Mellen & Co. They moyed uptown. They iJuilt the Trinity
Building at No. Ill Broadw^.y, which only recently has been remo\ed to make way
for a "skyscraper." In 1850 this firm's business footed up the enormous total, for those
days, of $13,500,000. That meant that the Claflin idea already shown had become a dom-
inant factor in mercantile business. The firm was at the head. It has stayed there ever
since. . That development made necessary another move uptown. The firm settled on the
(block where its present quarters are — Church and Worth streets and West Broadway.
Mr. Mellen retired in 1SG4, ?jnd the name of the house became H. B. Claflin & Com-
pany. In 18G6 the busipess had grown to a total of $64,000,000 sales, a phenomenal
figure. After the war it was plain to some far-sighted merchants that business condi-
tions were about to change with the changes wi-ought by the new conditions. Mr. Claflin
saw that a revolution in hi? own business was necessary if he would keep the com-
manding position in the mercantile v/orld. Before this the jobber, the importer, the
manufacturer, e.ach had occupied hi.=; own field. Mr. Claflin's judgment was that hi3
business to succeed must combine the functions of all three. The house of Claflin
now combine? t'lose three functions, as it has since the day when its founder first
put his ideas into pnvjt.ice. it would be a long and difficult story to tell how, /ear
by year, this business acquired control, one by one, of mills and factories, marketing
their entire product: of how it embarked into manufacturing enterprises that hav«
since, in its hands, become great among manufacturing interests.
This growing business means an expanding organization. In a smaller cor-
cern of the ante-bellum davs one man could do all the buying, fix the prices, com-
mand all the agencies in selling. In the concern of to-day. with all Its ramifications.
a great system with many branches, each with a responsible and trusted head, has
necessarily developed. The concern must maintain central buying bureaus in the
great markets of the world. Its men must have specialized knowledge of markets
in strange and unfamiliar parts of the world. Its chief must study possible and prob-
able demands which- are sw:iyed by the caprices of fashion.
It should be said here that at the death of Mr. Claflin, in 1S85. the business was
in the full tide of its still advancing career. The business for five years was carried
on by his son and the surviving partners. In 1890 the present corporation was formed.
Its president is John Claflin. son of the founder.
One of the long-pursued ideas of the house is to supply the demands of any trade,
no matter how such demands may differ from those of the general run of its trade.
The buyer coming from Mexico to Nev/ York is not suited with the goods which
find readv sale, for instance, in Sixth avenue. He wants merchandise that meets the
taste of his own customers. In the Claflin stock he finds not only the things he
knows are salable at home, but an organization which supplies him a seller who is
familiar with his home requirements, who speaks his language, and who understands
■whatever (differences there may be in the trade conditions of his own country as
compared with those in New York. The buyer from Mexico is cited merely as an illus-
tration of the broadness of the system. Souths America. Central America, the West
Indies, South Africa, Australia. India, China, .Japan, indeed the most remote countries
of the world, send traders to New York, assured that in this immense institution they
will find an accurate understanding of their customs and their customers.

THEBOWERY SAVINGS BANK
OF" IMENA/ YORK
More Than One Hundred Million Dollars in Its Vaults
No Similar Institution In All the World Has Such an Immense Volume of Deposits
THE Bowery Savings Bank of New York City, located In the very centre of Gotham's
famous East Side district, is the largest and most successful savings bank in the
entire world. This wonderful institution has a depositors' list of more than one
hundred and fifty thousand, which is made up of representatives of every race on the globei
Founded for the sole purpose of protecting the savings of the thrifty poor; The Bowery
Savings Bank has never deviated from that purpose in its long existence, and to-day, stands
as a monument to the nation's prosperity, and furnishes an irrefutable argument of the
thrift and saving habit of a large proportion of the masses.
Absolute confidence is the foundation rock upon which The Bowery Savings Bank
stands, and there is not one of its depositors, no matter how lowly, but knows that his or
her individual interests are perfectly safe therein. There is, moreover, a distinctly human
side to this famous bank, which is little dreamed of by those not cognizant with its work-
ing. It is constantly reaching out a helping hand to the thousands of struggling men and
women who are on its rolls, inviting them to economize and save. If a depositor— who is
withdrawing his money apparently to put into some wild-cat scheme— will listen to advice,
he is invited to "talk the matter over with the president." The depositor nearly always
consents to do this, in which event, if he is about to enter into some foolish speculation, he
is usually saved. The president of this famous bank and all of its officers are always on the
alert to protect j;he depositors against the thousands and one pitfalls that beset the unsophis-
ticated, and that is one very potent reason why the bank has grown to be the monarch of
the savings bank world. This one bank has greater savings than all Canada, all Norway, or
all Holland; it has one-tenth as much as all Great Britain. It is paying its depositors
$4,000,000 a year on their savings. This is a record unparelleled in the world.
Any person may become a depositor in The Bowery Savings Bank, no matter where he
lives, so long as he can write his name in English. That is the only requirement. Thou-
sands of depositors transact their business with the bank by mail, and are thus enabled to
participate in the splendid interest on their deposits, that is made possible by the gilt-
edge securities held by the bank, which is in possession of the highest character of collat-
eral to be obtained. Under the laws of New York, savings banks are subjected to rigid
control. The management is in the hands of men of known integrity, whose services are
entirely gratuitous, and who delight in conserving the interests of such an institution. In
all other States the funds of a savings bank may be loaned much as by commercial banks,
while in New York the restriction imposed by the statutes assures absolute safety.
The "Banking-by-Mail" system has been conducted by The Bowery Savings Bank for
many years. It is said that this bank originated this method of banking in the State of
New York.
To send a dollar from any point in the United States to The Bowery Savings Bank by
Post-Office Money Order costs five cents, including the stamp to carry the letter, while, if
one lived in New York City, in nearly every case It would cost twice that amount to get
the same dollar to the same bank because of street car fare. So the out-of-town depositor
has really the advantage over his New York brother in the question of strict economv,
Mr. William H. S. Wood, one of the most prominent men in New York, is president of
The Bowery Savings Bank. Every working day of the year he is at his desk in the big
bank building on the Bowery, and he knows every detail of the vast machinery that keeps
the institution going, and keeps it ahead of all of its fellows. Mr. John J. Sinclair, also a
splendid citizen of New York, Is the vice-president, and Mr. Robert B. Woodward, equally
eminent, Is the second vice-president. Mr. Henry A. Schenck, the comptroller, is a n^an of
marked ability.
We earnestly advise all our readers to send for a copy of this bank's little pamphlet
entitled, "Banking by Mail," which will be forwarded free upon request to The Bowery
Savings Bank, 128 and 130 Bowery. New York.

Some of the Important and Successful
Building Operations of D. C.
Weeks & Son.
EARLY in the Spring of 1840, De Witt
Clinton Weeks came to the city and
started in the building business. Since
that time the firm he established has
been continuously in business— the present head
of which is Mr. Francis M. Weeks, the son of
De Witt Clinton Weeks — and many large
operations and finest class of residences have
been built by it. The Fourth Avenue Presby-
terian Church. Fourth Avenue and Twenty-
second Street, is an existing monument of the
work of De Witt Clinton Weeks.
The old St. Thomas Church, at the corner
of Fifty-third Street and Fifth Avenue, built
in 1S69 and burned a few years ago, was the
first building erected under the firm name of
D. C. Weeks & Son. Prior to that time De
Witt Clinton Weeks had been operating under
his own name. The result of the fire, which
completely consumed everything burnable in
the building, leaving the walls practically in-
tact, is proof of the claim of the Messrs.
We«ks that nothing but the very best of
workmanship has ever entered into their buildings since the earliest days of the firm's
operations. The ruins of the old St. Thomas Church stand to-day as a monument to this fact.
The first building of the American Museum of Natural History, the old Queens County
Court House, Long Island City, are other buildings constructed about the same period.
Of the modern work of the firm the following are a few examples of its successes:
The estate of G. W. Vanderbilt, the well-known "Biltmore," on which work was car-
ried on continuously for seven years.
The Morton Building, at the corner of Ann and Nassau Streets. This is a twelve-story
building, of which the foundations were laid in October and the tenants were moving
in on the first of the following May.
The residences of Mr. Samuel Thorne and John W. Sterling, on Fifth Avenue, between
Seventy-second and Seventy-third Streets, which are among the best examples of the work
of the late Bruce Price, Architect.
"The Marble Twins," two residences with seventy-five feet frontage on Fifth Avenue,
between Fifty-first and Fifty-second Streets.
Residence of Mr. Morton F. Plant, corner of Fifty-second Street and Fifth Avenue.
Alterations to the residence of Mr. G, W. Vanderbilt, at the corner of Fifth Avenue
and Fifty-first Street.

nine-story building were ready for occupancy 14D days after the excavation was started.
On a telephone building on East Twenty-ninth Street, between Fourth and Madison
Avenues, one of the most novel engineering feats ever attempted in the building line was
carried out by this firm. The supporting walls for four floors and the roof of the building
were entirely removed and the floors were supported by iron- rods fastened to beams
at the top of the building, which were supported by heavy timber towers. The new addi-
tion was completed and the floors picked up and connected with the new structure, and
the whole building completed without so much as cracking the plaster in the old portion.

water supply, new decorative effects— in a word, an enlarged and completely remodelled
plant for the production of a great newspaper, and one of the most complete and con-
venient as well as beautiful office buildings in the country.
The enlarged Pulitzer Building fills the whole block bounded by Park Row, Frankfort
Street. North William Street and the approach to the Brooklyn Bridge. The New York
Press Club and the Lorlllard estate owned the land on which the new addition Is nearing
completion, from whom Mr. Pulitzer purchased it. No. 12 Frankfort Street, included In this
plot, was the birthplace of the New York Staats-Zeitung. Historical associations are also
825
F
connected with the site of the orig-inal Pulitzer Building. The first mention of the spot in
the annals of New Amsterdam was in 1642, and it is known to many living New Yorkers
as the location of French's Hotel.
; In the construction of the enlarged building Messrs. Weeks & Son had several diffi-
culties to overcome. For instance, that portion of the site which is bounded by the approach
tojthe Brooklyn Bridge was troublesome when the foundations were being prepared. They
hail to dig down under the bridge approach wall for a distance of eighteen feet and underpin
it, but this was accomplished without the slightest interruption to the Bridge traffic, a
minute's d^lay to which ofttimes means an hour of congestion. The tests for the founda-
tions were of the most severe character. A block of concrete two feet square was fitted
into the earth as the base of the excavation. Fifty tons was loaded upon this small block,
and there was practically no settlement, proving conclusively that the structure would
stand upon virtually a foundation of solid rock.
The most serious difficulty encountered by the contractors was in attaching the new
building to the' old, because the welding had to be accomplished without interruption to
the work of publishing the newspaper and without inconvenience to the many tenants
occupying the old building. The taking down of the old east wall, the cutting off of about
six feet of' the old building and the joining of the new and the old, were accomplished
substantially without a hitch. In one instance part of the old wall had to be torn down
before the steel skeleton of the new building was started. The smokestack in the old
building wa.s left standing, and when the steel skeleton was finished the smoke from the
old building was turned into the new stack, which had risen with the steel structure of the
new building. Then the balance of the old wall was removed, the floor beams fitted
together and the welding of the two mammoth buildings was completed.
In another instance it was found necessary, in order to avoid interference with the
publication of the newspaper, to build a new floor under a line of autoplate machines,
which were at the time being operated to the fullest capacity.
The cost of the new Pulitzer Building, without equipment, will be in round figures
about, One Million Dollars. Briefly, it is a steel skeleton, with concrete floors, strong
enough to stand the weight of any machinery desired to be placed upon them. The outside
walls are of granite, with terra cotta and brick trimmings. The window frames, sashes,
etc., are of copper; all the interior partitions are of fireproof tiling— in short, a thoroughly
fireproof, earthquake-proof structure.
The greatest care has been exercised in the con-
struction and assembling of the steel used in the
erection of the skeleton to prevent flaws or rust,
with the result that it is absolutely perfect. After
the steel had been painted it was not exposed to the
weather or loaded for shipment until it had been
carefully inspected and the paint found to be thor-
oughly dry. At no time after the application of the
first coat of paint was the steel laid on the ground,
but each part was placed on skids or trestles, and in
the handling and unloading extreme caution w^as ob-
served to avoid scraping off of the preservative coat-
ing, and even in transportation, to avoid nesting of the
pieces, packing material was placed between them.
After the erection of the steel skeleton the work was
thoroughly inspected, cleansed, and repainted. The
tests for sustaining weights were of the most strin-
gent nature and have been more than satisfactory.
In the new building six large elevators and two
smaller ones will take the place of the three elevators
in the old building. Two smaller elevators are to be
so equipped that they may be easily turned into ser-
vice for general passenger use at rush hours in the
great building. There will be new systems of heating,
ventilating, lighting, and new plans of decoration,
which will bring the enlarged Pulitzer Building up to
the standard set by. the contractors, if it does not
place It ahead of the very best of the many beautiful
structures erected by this extraordinarily successful
and competent firm of builders.

OSOL, DENATURED ALCOHOL
Remarkable New Fuel that Gives Perfect Heat and
Light at Very Small Cost.
WHEN the TJsilted States Government recently removed the tax on denatured
alcohol, 3t conferred a great boon on the American people. It gave to ih^ni a
fuel at once far superior to electricity, coal, gas or kerosene, and much cheaper.
It is doubtful if even *he legisla4;or who first studied the subject and was the
prim© mover in getting Congress to take off the tax foresaw the great material benefits
that would result.
It is not an exaggeration to say that no recent legislation has more widely affected
the econamic welfare of the Nation. By abolishing the duty on this perfect fuel Congress
placed within the reach of all citizens a substitute for expensive heating and lighting
commodities that will go far toward ending the monopolies created by the Coal Trust
and the Standard Oil concerns.
Osol, or denatured alcohol, is alcohol that has been made undrinkable by a special
process. It is non-explosive. It possesses sterling virtues besides its cheapness. Chief
among these is its cleanliness. A heater fed by denatured alcohol wiil warm a large
room or several connecting rooms at a total cost of a trifle more than a cent an hour.
The heat radiated from this heater is very agreeable, totally devoid of that quality usually
styled "dryness" so often complained of in hot air furnaces and steam apparatus. Another
great advantage is that this heater is as easy to run as an ordinary lamp. A child can
tend it. A small reservoir at the base of the heater is filled with the osol, the wicks
are lighted and that is all there is of it.
How the housewife will rejoice in her osol heater, in her osol cooking range, in her
osol sad-irons! No black, messy coal to be carried from the cellar. No odoriferous
kerosene to be smeared about her clothes and furniture. No exorbitant gas bills to be
I)aid each month. It is, indeed, a great step in advance in the comfort and well-being of
our Nation— this introduction of denatured alcohol into the economies of our daily life.
In the cooking range the cleanliness of osol and its convenience are peculiarly gratify-
ing; but no less so than in the sad-irons on ironing day, The osol is burned inside the
irons, and there is no frequent changing of irons because they grow cold. An osol-fed
iron is alv/ays ready for duty. The time of the ironer is saved; she has no worry over
her irons.
The osol heaters and ranges have been found to be of peculiar value to hospitals and
the sick room. No noise attends the care of them, and no gases or other unpleasant odors
emanate from them, while their heat-glow is more comforting than from other fuels.
The light shed by an osol-fed lainp is soft, brilliant and white, and burns with a
flame of great steadiness. It is like sunlight. Indeed, it possesses tlie properties of
sunlight. It is as good for the eyes as sunlight, too. If you work or read bj^ an osol-
fed lamp your eyes will last longer and stay young longer than with any other kind of
light.
For the last tvv-entj'' years, while the United States Government was keeping a
prohibitive duity on denatured alcohol, people in Europe and other countries had been
enjoying its benefits. In Germany, the land of good housekeeping, the housekeeper would
deem herself very ill-used were she forced to do without denatured alcohol in the con-
duct of her home. She prefers the brilliant, incandescent light of denatured alcohol to
the really high-grade gas that the German city authorities insist upon.
Now, for the first time, osol has been put on the general market in the United States.
It can be had at any grocer's or hardware dealer's. As soon as the public learns of
osol there is certain to be a great rush to- get it. As yet the public really knows little
of it. The heating and lighting trusts have taken care that as little information as
possible shall be circulated concerning it. It was only when newspaper editors awoke to
a realizing sense that a great, new fuel was at hand to the people and began printing
articles lauding its cheapness, cleanliness, safety, abundance and perfection that its merits
have become known at all.
Just as electricity is supplanting steam on our railroads, so is denatured alcohol,
apparently, destined to supplant coal,, gas and kerosene oil as fuel for heating and lighting.
Denatured alcohol has another virtue besides those of heating and lighting, ft is a
splendid cleanser. For cleaning household utensils, windows or clothing, for rem.oving all
kinds of grease, paints, etc., etc.. it is invaluable. It is the basis of most of the patent
cleaning compounds on the market. , '
Osol. or denatured alcohol, is now on sale practically everywhere in th« United States
in any desired quantity.
Every dealer in osol can-ies a complete line of heating and lighting utilities, such as
heaters, stoves, ranges, lamps, sad-irons, etc., etc. These are supplied by the Alcohol
Utilities Company. No. l.'if) West Twenty-third Street, New York, who will gladly furnish,
gratis, any information regarding denatured alcohol and its uses, or send circulars and
catalogues giving in detail the articles manufactured for utilizing this grand new fuel.

PATENTS, TRADE-MARKS. LABELS. PRINTS AND COPYRIGHTS.
By Edward S. Beach, Attorney and Counsellor at Law, 60 Wall Street, New York.
Specialist in Patent, Trade-Mark and Corporation Cases.
For THE WORLD ALMANAC AND ENCYCLOPEDIA.
Mr. Justice Bradley, of the United States Supreme Court, said: "The design of the
patent laws is to reward those who make some substantial discovery or invention which
adds to our knowledge and makes a step in adv^ance in the useful arts. Such inventors
are worthy of all favor. It is never the object of those laws to grant a monopoly for
every trifling device, every shadow of a shade of an idea which would naturally and
spontaneously occur to a.ny skilled mechanic or operator in the ordinary progress of
manufactures."
The greatest "vice of the patent laws," frequently complained of, is not in the laws
themselves, but in neglect of inventors to secure sound professional advice in the prepara-
tion and prosecution of their patent aT>pMcations.
Patents are contracts between (1) the Government, (2) the patentee, and (3) the public;
and patent specifica.ti«ns are among the most difficult contracts that trained lawyers are
called on to prepare.
The real value of a patent lies in its force as a contract capable of being enforced by
the courts, and the claims of a patent are its vitals. Everything, however well illustrated
and described, but which is not claimed in a patent, is abandoned to the public — except
when properly reserved for the subject-matter of another patent; and to draw legally
proper patent claims demands the hardest labor of experienced patent lawyers. A patent
without at lea^t one sufficient claim for the invention is like a house with a foundation
of sand.
Inventors and patent investors should consider the following:
1. Don't apply for a patent on an inv*^ntion which does not fill or is not likely to fill
some real want, or for an invention for which no actual market exists or can be probably
created.
2. Don't Invf'st (as a general rule) in a ijatent unless its claims cover the actual in-
vention; nor unless the invention can be made and .sold at a, profit without infringing
other patents; nor unless the claims of tlie patent are broad enough to cover the invention
and also substantial .imitations of it.
.". Don't make too many claims. They are a sign of weakness, and inducenu-nts 'o
litigation. The courts do not favor such patents. One sufficient claim is stronger than
forty uncertain claims.
4. Don't take out foreign patents unless sure that they can be worked or disposed of
when obtained. In deciding this question, consult consular reports, exporters and ot'aer
aut'norlties. ^
"). Don't make doubtful claims In foreign patents. In some foreign countries in-
validity of one claim invalidates the patent.
6. Don't think that patents will run alone. However important the invention, adequate
capital and sound business judgment and energy are essential.
7. Don't fail to mark patented inventions with the word "Patented," and also with
the date of the patent. •
8. Don't keep inventions secret. Disclose them to trustworthy persons, who can be
called as witnesses in case an •"interference" is declared in the Patent Office between
your application for your invention and the applications of rival inventors.
Remember that the Patent Office has nothing to do with questions of infringement,
but deals exclusively with Patentability and Interferences. The Federal courts have ex-
clusive jurisdiction of Infringement— i. e., the unauthorized manufacture, use or sale of
a patented invention.
Remember that (1) patents, (2) trade-m.arks, (3) prints and labels for articles of
manufacture, and (4) copyrights, are distinct things.
Patents are granted for 17 years, for machines, articles of manufacture, compositions
of matter and processes.
Design patents are granted for 3^^ or 7 or 14 years, for ornamen-tal designs for
articles of manufacture.
Prints and labels for articles of manixfactiire are registrable in the Patent Office,
under the Copyright Lavi'.
Copyrights afe obtainable from the Copyright Office in the Library of Congress, and
relate only to literary or artistic su'o.'ect-matter.
Trade-marks consist of aj-bitrary. non-descriptive, non-geographical words (or symbols),
and, unlike patents, are not based on invention.
Registration of a trade-mark is not essential to its protection. Trade-mark rights are
secured by mere adoption and actual use of lawful trade-marks on articles of merchandise,
and are lost by non-use. Trade-marks are registrable in most of the States of the UniterJ
States, and also in the United States Patent Office when used in interstate or foreign
commerce. Trade-marks should never be adopted without careful consideration of their
substantial legality and of the question of their essential novelty on the classes of goods
to which they are appropriated. Registration of trade-marks in the Patent * Office is
frequently of doubtful advisability, often leading to otherwise avoidable litigation.

UNITED STATES HOME FOR REGULAR ARMY SOLDIERS.
The United .States Soldiers' Home in the District of Columbia receives and maintains discharged
soldiers of the reyulay army. All soldiers who have served twenty years as enlisted men in the army
(including volunteer service, if any), and all soldiers of less than twenty years' service who have in-
curred such disability, by wounds, disease, or injuries in (he line of duty while in the regular army , as
unfits them for further service, are entitled to the benefits of the Home.
X pensioner who enters the Hoine may a.ssign his pension, or any part of it, to his child, wife, or parent,
bv filing written notice with the agent who pays him. If not so assigned, it is drawn by the treasurer
o\ the Home and held in trust for the pensioner, to whom it is paid in such sums as the commissioners
deem proper while he is an inmate of the Home, the balance being paid in full when he takes his dis-
charge and leaves the Home.
Inmates are subject to the Rules and Articles of War, the same as soldiers in the army. They
are comfortably lodged, fed, and clothed, and receive medical attendance and medicine, all without
cost to them. There are 1,250 men now receiving the benefits of the Home.
Applications for admission to the Home may be addressed to the "Board of Commissioners,
Soldiers' Home, War Department, \Va.shington City, D. C. ," and must give date of enlistment and
date of discharge, with letter of company and number of regiment for each and every term of service,
and rate of pension, if any, and must be accompanied by a medical certificate showing nature and
degree of disability if any exists.

Are You a Smoker of
Imported Havana Cigars?
We say ^'Imported Havana" lx;cause
our proposition appeals to the man with
a preference for tropical growth of tobacco
manuiactured into cigars before it leaves
the tropics
Our Puritanos Chicoi; are made of the finest
Putrto Rican grown leaf, made by hand in
our own factory at Caguas, Puerto Rico, and is
so thoroughly Havana in
its flavor that we will send ,">4^
you a box (25 at $1.88) and
agree to the return of them,
or as many as are left, after
.vou have thoroughly sam-
pled them, in case they are
not all you expect in a cigar
sold under this guarantee.
Taste is the real test of
a cigar, and it is taste only
by which every smoker de-
termines his choice. We do
not sell our cigars as Ha>
vanas coming from the
Inland of Cuba. They
need no deception. It is only
necessary for you to under-
stand that the delicious y
tlavored tobacco of the Gay ey
and Caguas districts of Pu-
erto Rico has. until Cuba
becameindependeut, always
been bought up by Oubnn
manufacturers and taken to
the City of Havana where
it was manufactured and
afterward sold as the
Choicest llabann Cij^ar.
We import our Puerto
Rican cigars and have them
laid down in sealed boxes
right at the Puerto Rican
steamer docks, fresh every
week, without one cent of
import duty, and thus we
sell tropical made cigars at
prices that are mighty near-
ly as low as you pay for rank
domestic tobacco.
I want to repeat that I
guarantee those cigars,
and will immediately re-
fund the purchase price
to anyone wlio isn' t well
pleased with them.
The cigar offered here is
but one of 16 shown in our
*'.>I i I to n esa " booklf^t
sent to anyone who wants
fine imported cigars at 4c
to 18c each.
Send today for a box of
'25 Puritanos Cliicos— our
most suitable cigar for a
trial order. If vou don' t
like this cigar, remember
that we pay the express
lx)th ways, and refund
.vour money. It is im- .-Miltonesn"
rortant to state whether PnritanosOhicos

THE ART PRESERVATIVE
IN none of the arts is the advance of the beautiful more pronounced than in that of the art preserva-
tive of arts. And it is by a return to the past, idealizing the typography of tlie Fifteenth Century,
that the highest form of the beautiful has been attained. Within ten years the greatest changes for
the better nave been made. William Morris, of the noted Kelmscott Press, is quoted as saying in
1890 that no good book printing has been done since the middle of the Sixteenth Century, and that the
degradation of the art had been lar,'eiy due to mean types. He urged the use of better types, a toler-
ance of quaintness. and the revival of mediaeval methods.
The adverse criticism of 1890 does not hold good now. A revolution has taken place from the
over-ornate to the attractive and restful in typography, America has not been be)iind in this
regard. The Jenson type is, perhaps, the best-known illustration. Between Nicholas Jenson and the
American Type Founders' Company stretch nearly 450 years. It was in 1458 that Jenson, an engraver
of the Paris mint, was sent to Mainz by Charles VII., King of France, to learn the new art of printing
He studied for three years and returned to Paris, In 1471 Jenson printed four books in Venice. He re-
mained in tliat romantic city to the end of his life, in 1481. It is said that he was not the first printer to
make Roman types, but that he made them better than did his rivals.
In honor of tuis old typemaker the Jenson type of to-day is named. Like the French pioneer of the
craft, the American type founders excel in their time in making the best faced type On reflection,
however, it seems strange that this handsome Roman letter, used in Venice in the Fifteenth C ntury,
reached in the higiiest degree tlie necessary qualities of legibility and purity of line, and that the
Twentieth Century can do no better than borrow its beauties for to-day's readers.
From the inception of printing from movable types, the mast'^rs who have handed down the honor-
able calling have taken pride in their work, like all true artists. Pierre-Simon Fournier, in his
Manual Typographique, wrote:
"Type-founding is not like other arts, in which imperfect workmanship may find <» use proportion-
ate to its relative value. Printing should tolerate nothing that is bad, nor even that which is mediocre,
since it costs as much to found and print bad types as it does to found and print perfect on< s."
It is safe to say tnat the time will never come when the handicraft of the type-founder will be a lost
art. The demand for the artistic in type, as well as in the'other finer fancies of the aae, is growing, and
is being met by "th-i found'^rs," by which appellation the printers of the entire country designate the
American Type Founders' Company, embracing the best-known and oldest-established concerns of a
dozen cities.
This Company is the originator of all the leading type designs, and has unequalled facilities for
supplying everything r?quired in printing ofBces. It has lately issued very attractive specimen books,
which cover the widest range in type faces in both plain and original designs. Among the new faces
are the Cloister Black, Tabard, and the extensive Cheltenham family.
Additional specimen sheets are constantly being issued from the ofiBce, comer of Rose and Duane
Streets, New York City, showing the new faces as soon as they are brought out for the public verdict.

The following description of this book may have an appearance of exaggeration, yet, when
compared with the book itself, the impartial reader wiii allow that the description only faintly echoes
the vast fund of information contained in it.
No trade, profession, or occupation but what is represented therein. The housewife will find aids and
suggestions therein innumerable. The Carpenter, the Builder, the Blacksmith, will find material aid
each in their respective departments. Tiie young lavly will find innumorable aids to pass her time uot
only pleasantly, but profitably. The Farmer and Stock-raiser will there reap sueh valuable hints as
cannot be found outside a small agricultural library. The Trapper can find in no other book or books the
secrets contained in Youman's. The Sick can turn therein to the particular disease with which they
are troubled, and learn the latest remedies, with methods for home treatment. But it is impossible to
enumerate every particular branch of every employment that Youman's does not advance new and
valuable information thereon. The following gives briefly the different trades, etc., etc., valuable

AGGRAVATED HERNIA — ** RUPTURE
»
So-called RUPTURE CURES and ill-litting Trusses cause aggravated Hernia. After your ex-
periments, without any pood results, then come and try my method of
HONEST TRUSS-FITTING. My long experience in this line enables
me to adjust the proper Truss to retain tho Hernia in most cases, thereby
giving those so afflicted positive relief.
VARICOCELE is the forerunner of RUPTURE. If most men would
wear a well-fitting SUSPENSORY there would be less use for Trusses. I
am a SPECIALIST in TRU.SSES, SUSPENSORIES, etc. Those that so
desire can see their physici'in before coming to nie. The same careful
attention given to either ADULT or CHILD. Trusses from $3. Suspen-
sories from 50c Mai! orders executed.
