The year 1895 is rich in privileges

The year 1895 is rich in privileges.
In 1895 the number of States was but
fifteen, and the population of the re-
public some four and one half million
people. George Washington sat in the
presidential chair, and the temporary
seat of government was at Philadel-
phia. The world moved slowly. The
telegraph would have seemed a mad
mans dream. Such events as the
Treaty of Basel on April 5. the acquit-
tai of Warren Hastings on April %.
and the establishment of the French
Directory on October %, were not
known in America till months after
ward. On land travel was by stage
coach. On the water men sailed in
sloops. the attempt Of John Fitch to
propel a boat by steam, a few years
before. having come to naught. The
rate of postage for letter. "compos-
ed of single piece of paper" under
forty miles, was eight cents; under
ninety miles, ten cents; under three
hundred miles, seventeen cents; and
over five hundred miles, twenty-five
cents. Wood was the chief fuel.
Though coal had been burned by a
blacksmith in the Wyoming Valley as
early as 1869. and though the ''Lehigh
Coal Mining Company" was organized
in 1892, this mineral did not come in
to general use till years afterward.
The printing press had hardly advanc-
ed beyond the primitive machine OF
Franklin. Newspapers were few, the
total number of copies printed in the
United States six years before having
been but 76,43S for twelve months.
And so the list of contrasts might be
largely extended. Who shall say that
the latter days are not better than the
former?
