Taking our average decennial
percentage of increase, oar popu
lation in 1900 will be 85,000,000; in
1910 it will be 112,000,000; in 1920
it will be 149,000,000; in 1930 it
will 197,000,000; in 1940 it will be
261.000. 000; and in 1950 it will be
346.000. 000.
Think of it! Before the end of
the twentieth century there will be
over 500,000,000 people in the
United States! •
These figures stagger the aver
age reader. Suppose, * then, tye
look twenty years ahead. Many
of us will be living then, and we
shall see 112,000,000 Americans
under our flag.
What are we going to do with
all these people? Our past histo-
y will give us some light. When
we numbered a few millions we
lound it necessary to acquire the
Louisiana territory. Then we ab
sorbed Florida. Next came Texas,
and a big slice from Mexico. Af
ter that we purchased Alaska.
From the very first it will be
seen that the American policy,
whether under , democratic or re
publican rule, has been one of ter
ritorial expansion. In the near fu
ture this policy wiU be a necessity.
Onr swarming millions will over
run Canada, MexicRO, Central
America, and push into Sonth
America. Cuba will be a mere
trifle in the list of onr territorial
acquisitions'
Bat, is it likely—is it practicoble
for so many people, covering sneb
a vast area, to be united under one
government? When this question
is raised we. drift into the wide
fields of speculation and prophesy.
Onr form of government has stood
unparallelled strains and tests. It
may yet cover the western hemis
phere with its starry banner, or
weighted with corruption, torn
by conflicting interests, and
grown too unwieldy, it may divide,
leaving a number of separate re
publics in a. commercial nnion,
Time will show. For th‘e present
it is enough to know that the in
crease of enr population twenty
years hence will open for this gen
eration more active and profitable
fields of enterprise than the world
has ever seen. It is an old saying
that if yon want to do lysines you
must go where thore are people.
The estimates quoted here make
jt plain that we are going to have
people enough ,and the best thing
we can do is to equip ourselves for
the business needs of the next two
decades. There will soon be work
enough for all who fit themselves
lor it, and there will be misery and
poverty enough for those who fail
to grasp the opportunities and
adapt themselves to the situation.

“2. We demand that congress
shall pass snch laws as shall effect
ually prevent dealing iu futures on
all agricultural and mechanical
productions, preserving a strin
gent system of procedure in trials,
snch as shall secure the prompt
conviction and imposition of such
penalties as shall secure the most
perfect compliance with law.
“3. We condemn the silver bill
recently passed by congress, and
demand in lieu thereof the free
and unlimited coinage of silver.
“4. We demand the passage of
laws prohibting the alien owner

take prompt notion to devise some
plan to obtain all lands now owned
by aliens and foreign syndicates,
and that all lands now held by rail

excess of 8uch as is actually used
and needed by them, be reclaimed
by the government and held for

“5. Believing in the doctrine of
equal rights to all and special
privileges to none, we demand that
our national legislation shall be so
framed in the future as not to bnild

another. We further demand the
removal of the existing heavy tariff
tax from^the necessaries of life
that the poor of our land must
have. We further demand a just
and equitable system of graduated

the money of the country should

many of them think that the
McKinley bill is primarily the
cause hi the stringency, for the
law; importers bought au immense
ainouut of goods in order to avoid
the higher duties which the bill
imposed. The greater part of
these goods are iu boud in the cus
tom house, and the bills for them
have been falling due for a month
or more. The duties on them
must also be paid by February 1.
The demaud for money which
these immense importations caus
ed came at a time when all the
money that was available was need
ed to move the crops. Money, of
course, began to get scarce, and
that fact, in connection with the
trouble which overtook the great
banking house of the Barings,
made bankers and money lenders
timid. Bankers began hoarding
money .in order to be fortified
against possible trouble, and the
consequence was a great money
stringency. -
In order to restore confidence
more money is needed, and Bank
er Henry Clews says that the most
feasible plan for getting it and re
storing confidence, is for congress
to postpone the time for the pay
ment of the duties on the McKin
ley importations from February 1
to June 1; passing the house bill
authorizing the Secretary of the
Treasury to buy 813,000,000 of sil
ver which now locks up money to
carry it, and pass Senator Sher
man’s bill which provides that na
tional bank currency, to the
amount of the face value of the
bonds.-dpposited to secure ft, may

of only 90 per cent, of tho face val-

This bill would permit 815,000,000
more national bank currency to be
put into circulation.
It is not likely that there will be
any legislation by ibis congress of
a financial character, because the
financial trouble will be over, in
all'probability, before there could
be any legislation of that kind.
But there will be by the next con
gress. Our dispatches yesterday
contained notices of two bills in
troduced by Senator Plumb, one
to increase national bank cur
rency, and the other providing for
the free coinage ot silver. .

Overcoming Prejudice.
Prejudice is a sad trait of human
nature. A person whose mind is
bent on bias does himself great in
justice. Said a sick man, whose
blood seemed on fire from the ef
fects of blood poison. “I can’t
help my prejudice; I have tried
half a dozen remedies, and they
did me no good. I believe all blood
purifiers are humbugs.” “Do you
believe all physicians are hnm-
bngs, too?” asked the writer. -‘Yes,
for I have tried three different doc
tors, and only grew worse under
their treatment. I have made up
my mind my case is incurable and
death inevitable.” However, the

suffering individual, at last suc

I was driving along a highway
in Woods county, Ohio, with a
man who was selling farming ma
chines to fanners, says the New

the afternoon we came along to a

stood adder an elm tree, about for
ty feet' high, near the house, and
in the topmost branches of the tree
was a boy about 14 years old.
“Anything wrong here?” asked
my friend, as we halted before the
door.
“Budd Hawkins says he won’t,

called a littie girl.
The teacher herself then came
forward. She was a plain looking
girl of about 20, with a mouth
showing great firmness, and with
some embarrassment she explain
ed:
‘It’s the terror of the school.
He refused to mind and I started
to whip. him. He broke away-and
mil out and climbed the tree. I’ve
been up about 20 feet, but I had
to give it up and come down.”
‘Yer can't conquer me!” shout-
en the boy.
“Budd, I order you to come

“J won’t!”
“I have sent- for an axe, and here
it comes,” she said as she turned
to us. “He’ll come down with the
tree, if not before.'
We offered to use the axe, but
she declined the offer with thanks,
and stepping to the tree she swung
the implement around and buried
the blade in the wood.
‘You dftsn’t!” shouted Budd
from the top.

Growing out of this comes from
the farmer, occasionally, the inqui
ry, what is the matter with the
market? . Not knowing the facts,
any answer to this inquiry is mere
surmise, From published data,
however, it is safe, at least, to in
fer that the pressure has grown
out of unsettled values in Europe.
Nevertheless,' this state of affairs
is, no doubt, attributable to some
extent to home management. It
certainly argues one fact, to-wit:
that there is not a sufficiency of
money iu circulation by our own
government to meet the demands
of commerce, and this is one of the
great national questions that should
engage the serious attention of onr
people. /
. Such a state of things gives too
great scope to the & on eyed pewers
that be. This fact is being dem
onstrated by the present pressure;
and it is further demonstrated that
the farmer class is the class that is
being pressed to the wall. Jnst at
a time when many demands
against this class are dne and pay
able, there comes a heavy drop off
from the market value of cottoD,
the only commodity they hold,
with which to liquidate these de
mands, and thus the loss falls di
rectly upon them.
Whenever the fiscal affairs of a
government are so arranged as to
bring such pressure sud such bur
dens upon its laboring classes, a
great wrong is'wrought, ard the
pressing demand for the rigkting-
o£ this wrong is too argent to go
unheeded by those who have the
power to. regulate and adjust snch
fiscal affairs. • When the farmers
cotton sells for less than the cost
of production, is it not evident that
there is somewhere a canker' worm
that isknawing at their very vitals?
Where and what is thig canker
worm ? And can it be extermina
ted? are the questions.
We incline, however, to the opin
ion that the present pressure in
money matters is only temporary,
and that at an early day money
will begin to flow, and the cotton
to move in its regular channels.

boring narrowly escaped beiDg
overtaken; bv the flood, which,
gushing down the side ot the
slight incline on which the frnit
farm is situated, had soon worn a
channel to the dry bed of an an
cient creek. This is soon filled
with a rushing, furious tide, which
fiually emptied itself into the Apa
lachicola, and which has continued
to flow unchecked or without signs
of diminishing.
The water is clear, sparkling,

When a remedy proves itself a
cure for the very worst cases of
blood poisqn, it stands to-reason
that minor effects of'.bad blood
will rapidly disappear if the reme
dy is used in time. No remedy in
the world has so good a reputation
at home or abroad as a cure for all
stages of blood poison ’’as B B B
(Botanic Blood Balm).
BenjameD Morris, Atlanta, Ga.,
writes: “I suffered "for years A'ith
syphilitic blood poison, which re
fused to be cured by all treatment.
Physicians pronounced it a hope
less case. I had no appetite; bad-
pains in my hips and joints, and
my kidneys were diseased. My
throat was ulcerated, and my
breast was a mass of running
sores. In this condition, I com
menced the use of B B B. It heal
ed every ulcer, and cured me com
pletely within two months.”
Bob Ward, Muxey, Ga., writes:
“My disease was pronoauced a ter
tiary form of blood poison. My
face, head and shoulders were a
mass of corruption, and finally the.
disease began eating my skull
bones. My bones ached; my kid
neys were _ deranged; I lost flesh
and strength, and life became a
burden. All said I must surely
die, but, nevertheless, when I had
used teu bottles of B B B I was
pronounced sound and well. Hun

An interesting discovery made
in Palestine daring the present
year is that of the ancient pool of
Bethseda, which has hithertcr been
confounded with‘ ; the Birket Israel.
Recent excavations of the Alger
ine monks under the rains of the
Crusader^Church of St. Ann at Je
rusalem, have laid bare two rock-
hewn wellsjcontaining water,which
have been often bnilt over. These
correspond with the description of
"Bethseda as given by the fathers
of the chnrcb, and the pilgrims of
the fourth century.
Four years ago Miss Lena Wood
ard, living on Thora Creek, Wash.,
sowed the seed from one head of
barley. She harvested the crop
with a pair of shears and sowed
the amount received the next year,
again harvesting it with her shears.
The third crop her father cat with
a grass scythe, getting eijongh bar
ley from this crop to sow forty
acres last spring, which averaged
forty bushels to the acre when
threshed, making a total yield of
1,600 bushels -from one head of
barley in four years.
