OFFICIAL PAPER OF fsMERAlrA esgsry.

VERMONT has lost IN population
since 1880 and Maine has gained less
than 10000. The decay of an old COM
monwealth is not pleasant spectacle.
There must be something wrong in
economic conditions when two old
States, with settled institutions, = fixed
local pride and sense individuality,
fall off in population or make such
slow gain. The East continually sneers
at Nevada, new State that has been
used as n camping ground from which
people depart for reasons of fancy or
fortune, and to which others may resort
for development of resources which
are yet largely untouched. There is
hope fora great State which miners
have only SKINNED, bat which has lett
mineral aud agricultural resources.
But what hope Is there Tor State
where every field has been plowed,
every forest rayished, every quarry
and mine worked ont9

Luck and Gall.

Some newspaper has asked the yari-
Gus Senators what was essential TO
political success.
Most OF them write unoriginal and
hackneyed replies. A man, they said,
must be honest, upright, truthful and
able. Everybody knows that this is
all nonsense. Jones of Nevada gave
a characteristic reply and said that he
attributed most of his success to luck
and gall" That he is able no one
questions, but he was candid enough
10 acknowledge that his ability would
not have landed him but for his luck
and gall.

How Fast LOGON olive Can
Travel.

In regard to tie much discussed
question as TO the rapidly with which
locomotive can run, some interesting
official figures have been given by Mr..
StrettoD, an eminent English engineer,
showing briefly that the highest speed
ever accurately taken was with Bris-
lol and Exeter broad. gauge engine
having nlne-foot wheels, and which
was, as long ago as 1858, officially
timed at q speed just over eighty miles
an hour for short distance, this occur
ring in the case of falling gradient
and with q light load. lie also dis
tinctly asserts that the speed is the
maximum that can possibly lie obtained
with locomotives of the present type,
the cause of this being, he declares,
that at such speed as that the resist
ance of the air, the back pressure in
the cylinders and the II lotion altogether
have become so great that they absorb
the whole power of the engine, while
the pressure on the wrong side of the
piston becomes greatly increased by
the fact that the exhaust steam cannot
get out of the cylinders fast enough.

they have spent most of the time for the past

orders drawn for water works purposes being
somewhat mixed with contingent orders rem
dered IL necessary for the committee to make
out general account from other accounts, pass

therefore Recommend that hereafter the city
treasurer be required to keep general account

The Earth Growing Larger.

The earth, travelling in its orbit
around the sun and onward with the
solar system around some unknown
and still greater center of attract ion.
is constantly traversing new regions of
space, which it depletes of meteoric
dust and meteorites, thus steadily-no
matter how slowly-increasing in
diameter. Now let this growth con-
tinue till the earth has just twice the
attractive power which it now possess
es, we should then have twice the num-
Der of meteorites and double the
quantity of dust falling annually upon
it.
Fortunately for our heads the earth
has not yet attained very formidable
dimensions, but we may look upon it rs
an established fact that it constantly
gains in weight, and that in proper
ton to such gain its attractive power
steadily increases.
The attractive force of the sun is so
enormous that a perpetual hail of
meteorites and torrent of dust par
ticles must rush upon it from all di-
rections, and some of the foremost OBJ
servers are now of opinion that these
falling bodies are the sole cause of the
suns heat.
In the light Of this theory our earth
is young and growing. not an old
and dying planet; a planet with a
future. which ought to be cheerful news
TO all of us, although we shall not live
to reap the benefit of it, and the sun,
far from being on its last legs as an
expiring luminary, is steadily gaining
in heat and lighting capacity-Amert-
