Now men are living who will see this
enormous country brought under develop
ment. 1t will bring the South American
countries into closer relation with the
United States There of course will be
competition, but composition Of this sort
ought not to be unhealthy, and presume
that in the next century there may be built
a railway reaching so far that it may be
possible to enter II palace car in New York
city and to ride in it to Lima, Santiago,
Rio Janiero or Buenos Ayres. Now rail-
roatl development will do for South Ameri
ca what 1t has done for the United States,
md the activity Of our commerce will bring
the United States into very close alliance
with the southern continent and cause n
development of commercial relations the
consequence of which cannot be realized
today. The Twentieth century is going to
be great era for South America, and that
continent cannot flourish without benefit
ing the United States
am one Of those who believe that the
commercial and manufacturing develop
ment of this country during the Twentieth
century will be such that the genius of the
American people will make it perfectly
possible for this country to compete sue
cesSfllly with all the great manufacturing
centers of Europe ina great ma ority Of the
classes of goods that are now being mar
keted by England, France and Germany,
not only in South America, but in all the
great centcrs Of commerce throughout the
world w. r. GRACE.

toward simplicity. Railroads and tele-
graphs will belong to the state, thus lessen
ing the dangerous power Of large monopo
lies and vast corporations. Otherwise N
less than century our boosted American
freedom would cease to exist since it is al
ready menaced.
In temperance the world ere then will
have realized the folly of trying to legislate
upon appetites. 1t will realize the neces-
sity of educating them, and that to educate
them we must begin with parents. People
who refuse to be taught on this and kin
dred subjects must be prevented from be.
coming parents. In this way only can
drunkenness be lessened.
The same humane law will by that time
extend to criminals-they will be prevented
from propagating their kind. This will
take the place OF capital punishment, and
after few generations will do away with
crime because no criminals will be born.
The whole vast west will be irrigated and
fertilized, furnishing food for all our popu-
lation. Architecture will have reached a
much higher state, but will not in 500 years
attain to the perfection found in countries
thousands Of years old probably Airships
will facilitate travel, and the pneumatic
tube will be the means of transporting
! goods.
America will produce the greatest au-
thors who shall be living in 1903. In music
/ al achievement it will still be behind older
| countries.
The occult sixth sense will be the pre-
dominant elements in medicine and theolo-
gy. Mesmerism will take the place Of an
asthetics in surgery; theosophy-the reli-
gion OF high thinking and selhess living
will take the place of creeds and dogmas;
| clairyoyancy or spiritual insight will be al
most universal. Woman will be financially
independent of man, and this will material
| ly lessen crime. No longer obliged to rifle her
husbands pockets for money, she will not
| give birth to kleptomaniacs or thieves. Men
will learn the importance of proper pre-
natal conditions and children will be reared
| with the same care now given to colts,
ralyes and dogs.
The government will establish colleges
for the training of servants, and architects
will consider the comfort and health of do
mestics in constructing homes, instead of
Ignoring them, rs at present Better in
,tructed, better paid, better cared for and
more plentiful, the servant of the next
century will be more useful, better con-
tent and more respectful and respected.
IL our men keep pace with our women in
athletic development and in clean morals
the race will he larger and handsomer
Otherwise we shall produce splendid anna
IONS and pygmy men.
Chicago will be our greatest city because
she knows she is not and desires to be
and has the energy and zeal to become So
Each Of orr other large cities thinks she Is
already he greatest and will make no pro-
nouuced fort to be greater. All permanent
greatness means eternal endeavor.
If any man now living solves the great
question Of the true relation of capital md
labor, to him will 1862 accord the honor Of
the greatest man. Next to him stands

in the direction OF business prosperity in
American commercial development in the
next century. expect to see great mer-
chant marine, although i am one Of those
who believe that this cannot be procured
by us until there are changes in our navi-
cation laws. The substitution of iron and
steel for wood and of steam for sail power,
which has been going on with great
rapidly in the past twenty years, accounts,
| think, for the decadence in American
shipping partly, and if Congress shall 80
iegislate that Americans can compete with
foreign shipowuers there is likely to be a
revival OF American shipping interest and
Hhipbuilding and the development of a
race of American sailors like those of
former times, who were as fine sailors as
trod the decks. and who were at the same
time really distinguished from all other
seamen by their business ability.
The development of the great west, and
especially Of the south and southwest, will,

PEELED in the next century to import IN

the active men OF the Twentieth century
are going TO see a magnificent development
of corn and other cereals in the fertile lands
nj the great southwest, and American
genius is going TO show Europe how nutri,
tive and desirable American corn ~ for
food purposes when it is properly cooked,
For that reason we shall probably find that
nur exports OF corn will more than make
up for the falling off IN the exports OF
wheat.
