Tn lpte Legislature passed one
appropriation bill after another till
they voted to pay for great many
more things than they have money

THr Samoan Conference being now
held in Berlin Germany IS conducted
in the English language. Which is
proper in view Of the forsshadowing,
that the English language Is u be
come the language of the world.
The Egyptian and Assyrian languages
hsd ;he,r day and we're followed by
the Greek and the Latin languages
and now it Is as clearly forsbadowed
as anything can bc that the English .
language Is t. bc the language Of /
the world. Three hundred Years 4
hence the Greek and Lltiu languages
viii have less attention paid to
them than either Egyptian or
Assyri0u for the simple reason that
everything pertaining to Greece and
Rome VIII have been translated into
the Ergii>h-iudeedh hes already been
translated into tho languago-aud
the English being the language Of
the world there viii no longer be anv
use for the Greek and Latin. Such
however Is not the case with the
ESy ptuan and AssyrIGn languages of
the past, rs engraved on stone. Those
languages tell many things of the
past that coming generations will
want to know, and which can only be
found out by studying the languages
OF the long past, as found engraved
ON tablets buried IN the ruins Of the
critics Of long ago.
