OF that last innrmity Of cnttc and OF other animals

and when last heard from had succeeded IN

with the dictates OF her ever-chnnging fancy.
This theory OF the inalicnable right OF the Fart

OF the other faction They Brguo with much heat
and--if an outsider may express On opinion-with
considerable force that the Fort Dodge COW

corn and oats the gain has been greater than
In population. and the returns OF cotton acreage
show an increase Of 40 per cent since 1880
The supplies OF beef are assured by an increase
Of Al per cent in The number Of cattle.
Tho great manufactures have been doing
their share. Even the woollen manufacture, II
Mr.. Lynch's figures are correct, consumes 30
nor cent more wool than in 1880, though this Is
doubtful. There is every prospect however
that the increase this year viii be large. The
consumption In cotton by home manufacture has
been from 1, esl, 900 to 100000 balls Of
90 mounds each, OF 81 per cent Th5 mag
nitude Of the leather manufacture can best be
inferred from the number Of oxen and other
cattle % which has increased ~ per cent In nine
wears, and still the imports Of foreign hides for
manufacture here do not cease. The manufact-
IRE of iron and steel had IN 1880 for basis
the production Of 1900, 600 tons of pig iron
This year the production has been at the rate
Of 500, 600 tons, a gain Of more than twice
that In population. Similar remarkable gains
have been made In many Of the minor man
ufnctures, As In silk and rubber, and In the
production Of copper and lead.
But while these departments OF productive
industry have made progress on the whole moro
than commensurate with that Of population, the
railroad mileage has grown from 10000 10
more than 100, 900. Not the whole OF this In
crease can be rcckoned as gain or addition to
the National wealth. But by far the greater
part Of it ia now profitably employed in meeting
nublc needs. The thriving city whose destruc-
ton BY fire Is one Of the sad events Of last week
was scarcely in existence when the census was
taken, and owes its growth TO the railroad sys-
tenn A single Territory which produced less
than 5000, 600 bushels Of wheat In 1880 has
since produced more than any State in tho
Tnion-oyer SO, 100000 bushels.
The volume OF business, as recorded by the
exchanges between banks in cities outside New
York, has grown wonderfully. In five months
ending with May these clcarings have amounted
10 eight thousand and forty millions, bit
about seven hundred and eight millions wero
al cities which did not report at all in 1881.
Deducting these, and allowing for the increase
in recorded exchanges from 1880 to 1881, tho
increase at twenty-five cities the most impor-
tant outside New York, has been 81 per cent
in nine years. The nero increase in amounts
paid at these cities for only five months OF the
year has been fifty times the largest estimate
OF losses by the recent unprecedented disasters.
Terrible a. these have been, the recuperative
powers Of Nation advancing so rapidly In
business In production and in oil the elements
of prosperity, will quickly repair all those
rayages which can be measured in human labor,

THE NATIONS GROWTH

Great disasters test the rcuperauve power OF

said 20 have been $50, 900, coo, but that Is only
one two-hundredth part Of the annual produc-

therefore be timely TO see what the Nation has

much depression.

IN EYGLIsH-AMERICAN CRUISER.

The new cruiser Baltimore Is practically com
peted and is to have preliminary trial on tho
Delaware this week. This is welcome news,
for the deficiencies Of the American Navy have
been markedly apparent since the Samoan dis
aster, and this ambitious cruiser will be- II ac.
cepted after adequate tests, an important add
ton 10 the feet. The Baltimore, while having
displacement equal to that Of the Chicago, Is
provided with the most powerful engines ever
placed in an American warshp. While the
Chicago engines were designed to have 5000
horsepower the machinery of this crack cruiser
Is expected to develop horsepower Of 5000
and to have a speed Of / 8 knots, This Is the
requirement Of the contract, but even larger
results are looked for. The plans Of Mr.. White,
which were purchased by Mr. Whitney, called
for an indie ated horse power Of 0,750, but the
builder was allowed margin Of / $50 in guar
sntceing the results. II the Cramps succeed
in developing the horsepower for which tho
engines were designed, they will receive o
bounty Of $4,000 over the contract price.
II the Baltimore fulfils the expectations Of the
English designer, she will be the fastest cruiser
afoat
The new cruiser, II she proves to have a
speed of 10 or 20 knots and TO be thoroughly
seaworthy, will be the finest vessel IN the navy,
but will be American only in construction. Tho
machinery was designed by an English house,
and the plans and drawings Of the vessel came
from the hand of the chief expert Of the Arm.
strongs, who Is now the min designer for the
Admiralty. The success of the Baltimore will
indicate the ability OF American shipbuiders 10
carry out an English design in detail. ID will
be Mr.. Whites triumph, and will not add to
the prestige Of American experts and engineers
Still, II the vessel be fast and stanch perhaps
the American public will not be Jealous of the
tribute paid by Mr. Whitney TO the superior
skill Of the English designers. A modern navy
with cruisers OF high speed aad engine power

expectations II win be a cause for general re-
ioicing, for II will be easy and profitable to

surgeon-G eneral Hamilton, in his report to
the President, makes the gratifying statement
that there is no fear of general epidemic in
the Conemaugh region. As far as purity OF
water supply is concerned, it is apparent that
Johnstown is better off than the cities depend
ent upon the rivers into which the Conemaugh
flows. So long as the drift at the Johnstowh
bridge remains, the stream below must be pol
luted, and the use of this water must be at
tended with danger. The work Of removing
the mass of debris at the bridge is painfully
slow. DIR. Hamilton recommends the boiling
of the water before drinking 1t. Though this
would doubtless render it harmless, 1t is far
from agreeable to contemplate the necessity
to which hundreds of people may be subjected
of using water contaminated as this must De-
