II involved. first Of all and most i'm.
portant of all. the distribution Of sil.
yer literature all over the United

the states that were doubtful in the

Political Science" often of an inge-
nious sort. is used in choosing the sites
of capitals; but Brazil has now en-
ployed natural science for the purpose.
Rio de Janeiro being unhealthy. the
Brazilian government appointed a COM
mission Of scientists TO select loca-
tion suitable for a new capital. The
commission has fixed upon a plateau
1000 feet above the sea-leyel. The dis
tance by rail from the coast is said ID
be eighteen hours. No yellow fever
inyades the spot, and other conditions
favorable to health are reported. The
Popular Science News says that this is
believed to be the first occasion on rec
ord in which science has been called
In to choose the site of capital. Bad
air and bad legislation have doubtless
been associated. more than once, as
cause and effect.

The native food consists largely Of

The climate is also very favorable to
the growth of the long staple sea-

be picked by hand the high price of

! David Starr Jordan, president OF
Stanford University. says: "One of
the most disquieting features OF the
social condition of our times is the
rush OF young men to the cities. Re
sulting from this is the weakness and
instability OF the farming population
as compared with the same class half
century ago. Steadlness Of national
character gees with firmness OF foot
hold on the soil. We may well lock
with alarm on condition In which
nil men OF wealth and power shall be
gathered In the cities while the farms
are left TO the weak and inefficient or
TO the peasants Of other nations. As
matters are, the cities are great de-
stroyers Of human life. We have not
learned properly to govern them nor
to make them effective, and every city
Ia full OF human failures, results OF
mlsdirected effort. A tour Of the prin-
cipal streets, halls and meeting places
on Sunday evening In any great city
will show how terribly true this H..
Certainly onc-fourth the present pop
nlation OF such a city as San Francisco
for example has no real business there.
These people are doing nothing which
