In the July Ladies' Home Jour
nal is the following facts about the
United States. The area Of the
United States with Alaska is 1902,
$50 square miles equal to the area
of all Europe with Italy and Tur-
key excepted. Texas its largest
state is two hundred and twelve
times the size of Rhode Island.
Texas might invite every man wo-
man and child now living in the
world to settle within its territory,
offering each individual a plot of
ground fifty by one hundred feet.
The state would not be really
crowded, for each individual would
have four times the space taken by
each person in New York City.
England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales,
Italy aud Portugal could be trans
planted to Texas and still there
would be good sized promenade
where curious Americans could
walk while studying this bit of
Europe, Three of the cattle ran
ches Of Texas cover as much terri
tory as the Sandwich Islands.

New York was given over to the

is very close but the republican

The papers throughout the valley

thing more than this, should be
done. Our Senator and Congress-

for us in the matter, and in a recent
conversation with both congressman
we were impressed with the difficult
ties by which the matter is beset.
