WHAT A CENTURY HAS DONE

One hundred and ten years ago there was not a
single white man In Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, or
Illinois Then, what is the most dourishing
part of America was as little known as the coun
tries around tho mysterious mountains of the
moon. 1t was not until 1861 tn at Boone left his
home in North Carolina. to become the first pio-
neer OF Kentucky. The first pioneer OF
Ohio did not settle until twenty years
after. Canada belonged to France and the pom
lation did not exceed million and half OF PEG
pie. hundred years ago the Great Frederick of
Prussia was performing those grand exploits
which have made him imm ertal in miliiary annals
and with his little monarchy was sustaining
single contest with Russia, Austria and France.
the three great powers OF Europe combined
Washington was a modest Virginian Colonel,
and the great events in history of the two world.
In which these great but dssimilar men took
leading parts, were then scarcely foreshado owed.
hundred years ago the United States were tho
most lovely part Of the Br tish Empire and ON the
political horizon no speck indicated tho struggle
when, with score Of years thereafter, establish
ed the great republic OF the world. hundred
years ago there was but four newspapers in Amer
lea. Steam engines had not been imagined. rail
roads and teegraphs had not entered into the re-
moteet conception of men. When we come to
look back at 1t through The vista Of history, we
find that to the century just passed has been allot
ted more important events, In their bearing upon
the happnSss oil the world, than al most any 9th er
which has elapsed since the creation.
