SIBERIA MoDERNIzEp.

From early childhood people have
been accustomed to regard Siberia az a
cold, forbiddlng region OF the earth, nj
for nothing but penal colonies. This
Idea must now be abandoned, The
United States consul at Moscow, Mr.
Smith, reports that there are numerous
cities In Siberia. with from 10000 TO
10000 inhabitants. There are numerous
modern hotels and restaurants. Elec-
trio lights and telephones are plentiful
Elegant yestibule trains are trayersing
the country--tra supplied with baths
dining cars, pianos etc And the cost
OF travel is remarkably low, The tour
lst can travel from Moscow TO Irku,sk,
5000 miles for SH.
Generally speaking, people have or
roneous ideas as to the progress Of civ
iligation In Russia. The country Is
looked upon as half barbarous. While
Il may be true that the form OF gov
eminent is autiquated. and that there
Is much ignorance among the common
people, It Is also ttuA that western
civilization has made wonderful prog
ress among the upper and middle class
es Of the czar's subjects. Despotiam Is
as natural to the slav. as Is free gov
eminent to the Anglo-saxon, But this
does not prevent the progress Of civil
lzatlon. only II proceeds from above
and penetrates slowly to the lower
strata. II comes from the throne to the
people, instead of from the people Itself.
The progress noted in Siberia Is an
indication Of the future possibilities OF
that vast stretch OF country. As II be-
comes more thickly populated, It can
not fail TO become an Important market
Tor American western products. This
country should continue that friendly
relation to Russia, which ls necessary
for an interchange OF products

TO REVISE THE OATH.

The prospects are good for revision
OF the oath OF allegiance King Edward
will be required to take on the occasion
OF his coronation Cardinal Vaughan
protested against the part of II which
Catholics consider an insult to them,
and the protest appears 10 be wen
taken. The oath atigmatiles them as
superstitious and idolatrous, and insin-
yates that they are hypocrites II Is
clearly against the spirit OF the age for
king to say this to millions of his
subjects, many Of whom hold important
positions In the state. The proposition
TO appoint committee to revise the
oath will undoubtedly lead to the elm
nation OF the Objectionable clause
King Edward holds peculiar posi-
ton enthusiastically, Kings and princes
appear TO be able to changereligion with
great facility. as political or other con-
slderatlons demand, A Lutheran prince
will embrace the Greek faith, In order
10 be permitted to wear the crown OF
Greece, and Protestant princess will
change faith to become the bride OF a
czar. They would probably turn Mo-
hammedans for similar potent reasons.
But the British king is the head Of two
churches at one time, and Is bound, by
the spirit OF the age to tolerate third.
not to say anything about numerous
others. In Scotland, the king is vir-
tually Presbyterian, while in England
he Is the head OF the Anglican church.
That is unique position While the
committee on revision Is at work, the
suggestion might as well be made that
the law itself be revised, and that the
king be accorded the liberty enjoyed by
the humblest Of his subjects, TO belong
to whatever faith he might choose.
There is much speculation as TO the
probable attitude OF the new king to-
ward the nonconformist churches. II
Is recalled that these In years past
have been severe in their denunoiations
Of the prince, and that he was not In
sensible to what he termed their "sys-
tematc SANDER and torrent OF
abuse" Should his majesty remember
these things too wen. there Is likely
to be friction for the nonconformist
element Is strong in the United King
| dom.
II Is predicted that church and state
viii be completely separated In Great
Britain in the near future. and this
would be the best that could happen.
Then all churches would be placed on
an equal footing, and the king be free
In the exercise Of religious duties. II
Is rather strange that in country with
free institutions, an obsolete combina-
ton Of things temporal and eternal stlll
is maintained in spite OF the long agi-
tation that has been going on for the
separation OF church and state.

POPULATION OF THE WORLD.

Estimates Of the total population Of
the earth place the number, al the be-
ginning Of this century, at 100000 600
inhabitants. The figure Is, of course,
only rough guess, The inhabitants
Of the Americas are estimated at 49,
100000 of which iOl0O0O00 are allotted
to North America Europe has about
39O,0O0000 people These figures may be
regarded as approximately correct,
though the number Of aboriglnes both
In North and South America cannot
be given with any great precision. The
population OF Asia IL a matter of dis
pute British india contains about
294, 600, 600 inhabitants As for Africa,
there IL no census on which to base
calculations. In the absence OF rella-
able data for the greatest portion Of
the world. II would seem preposterors
10 even venture guess, but the proba-
bIllty is that the estimate that places
the total number OF inhabitants at a
billion and half Is rather over than
under the true mark
Political economists have often spec
ulated as to the time when the human
race would be too numerous for the
habItable area OF the globe, but there
appears to be no immediate cause for
alarm on that account. Increase oil
population does not progress with
mathematical precision. Famine, pes
thence and wars at intervals carry oil
large portions Of the race. Decrease
of the birthrate IL another factor TO
take into account. Ancient races die
out and leave room for others. Entire
nations remain stationary for years
and centuries.
II has been calculated that the United
states at the beginning OF another CEN
fury win have 3Oo,OOo,0OO inhabitants
and that may be conservative esti-
mate But It does not follow that the
people Of every other country VIII In

THE CAUSE OF THE STORM.

The Salt Lake Tribune is still doing
its uttermost 20 keep up the fiction be-
fore the country, that the bin which
passed the Legislature and was vetoed
by the Governor was a "Polygamy
bill" The articles from eastern pa
pers. which II clips from day to day,
contain the same error and the un-
favorable comments they offer are
based on that mistake, OF course the
Tribune knows better, but 1t still uses
the same expression in its references to
the bill, asa eyades the objection raised
by the Deseret News against the mis-
leading title, by abusive and sophistl-
cal language entirely irrelevant TO the
subject
As sample OF the sort Of argument
used by that paper, We reproduce. YER
batlm and entire. the following editor
ial from this mornings issue.
The News insists that the reason the
Eastern press grew furious over the
Evans bill was because the purpose Of
the bill was not understood. II seems
that II was thoroughly understood in
some places. at least. For instance, the
Mail and Express had this to say
OF 1t:
This bill, while ostensibly designed
merely to permit Mormons 20 live with
plural wives whom they married before
the Mormon Church issued its nantes.
10 against polygamy, Is in reality
meant TO encourage, extend and pro-
tect the system OF plural marriages
throughout the state. To this end the
measure provides that no prosecution
for poly gemy shall be Instituted except
on Tho complaint OF the legal wife or
the plural wives OF the accused--or, In
other words. that the criminal shall not
be prosecuted except on the accusation
Of his associates In crlmer
could the realmcaning OF that meas
ure be more tersely stated by Sena.
tor Evans himself? And was Il strange
that a storm began to gather when it
was iirei announced to the country
that a Utah Legislature was consider
Ing such a proposition, and later that
both houses had passed it?'
Now, observe. The Mail and Express
states that the Evans bill provides
that no prosecution for polygamy shall
be Instituted, except on the complaint
Of the legal wife or the plural wives OF
the accused" which ls as complete a
misconoeption Of the truth as Is pos
siole 10 be conveyed In the same num-
Der Of words Yet the Tribune says
the matter Is thoroughly understood
by the Mail and Express.
The bill did not affect In the least
any prosecution for poygamy. II dd
not propose 10 change the penalty, or
the manner Of prosecuting the offence.
II related to other matters. The chief
truue Ia the prosecution for which
the bin aimed 10 make some changes, Is
one against which New York. where
