EXPANSION.

When this country first became a
separate nation, it was, in the natural
order of things, but child, with a
child's weakness. There were only
thirteen thinly settled States, scattered
along the Atlantic sea-board. We had
little or no army, and absolutely no ma
Wy, such a men call navies, to-day.
Expansion was absolutely necessary,
just as growing child requires larger
clothes. And there was ample room.
On all sides there was unoccupied ter
ritory. AS population increased from
within and without, people pushed
their way Westward and Southwark,
and the Government found it necessary
to acquire more territory. The house
had to be made larger to accommodate
the growing family. To-day we are a
compact family, from sea-shore to sea
shore; from the st. Lawrence river to
the Gulf.
Men call this Expansion, and it is Ex-
pansion-natural expansion-the heal
thy growth of the healthy body But
now the word expansion has different
meaning 1t means leaving our own
land, our own continent, and extending
with mammoth strides, not over con-
tiguous land, but over seas. 1t is not
enlarging the house because the house
is too small; or getting new clothes be-
cause we have outgrown the old ones.
Such expansion is not natural, not heal.
thy. 1t has already caused us much
trouble, and may cause more, as time
goes on.
The subject must be studied and met
1t will be the great issue in the next
Presidential campaign, and will be han
died more wisely than in the last How
far can we legitimately expand? What
shall be the limit? We open the col
umns of the News to any one who wish
es to give his views on the subject; only
asking for brevity and temperatures,
of speech. Neither party, as far as VIZ
can see, is solely responsible for the ex
pansion already made.

commitment papers, violently in
sane" Sometimes they were merely
getting over a long spree and when
sobered up were as rational as any one.
The doctor cites q case where the
sheriff brought N a patient committed
as insane, who was merely drunk when
he started, and when he had reached
the asylum had sobered up while the
sheriff who had brought him in had
become drunk and was the less rational
of the two.
The State had to foot the bill for the
two coming to the asylum. The doc
tor told the patient he was not sub
ject for the asylum and advised him
to go home at his own expense. He
agreed to do so, and went to Reno and
borrowing money of George Turriten,
returned to his home in a perfectly
sane condition. The sheriff sobered
up and followed him next day.
The doctor mentioned no names and
the members were unable to locate the
parties alluded to.
The doctor wanted the law so amend
ed as to allow no persons to be commit
ted to the asylum unless they were
examined by competent physician and
in the presence of Judge of District
Court, the commitment papers to come
from him. 1t is evident that such a
law is badly needed.

THE DESIRE FOR NOTORIETY

In all ages of the world the desire for
notoriety has shown itself. A certain
man once fired the Temple of Diana at
Ephesus, in order to get himself talked
about. The Emperor forbade the use
of his name in any manner, and so the
poor wretch missed his reward. 1t
would be good thing If we had some
power, now-a days, strong enough to
suppress the names of people who do
all sorts of things in order to get their
names heralded abroad.
The News is thinking especially, just
now, of Senator Carter's long speech
against time, by which he succeeded in
defeating the river and harbor BILL
The News does not think it very
creditable piece of business. 1t is true
that freedom of debate in the Senate
has become very important. 1t is only
there that great political questions can
be thoroughly discussed. But free
dom of debate, like everything else,
can be abused, and Mr.. Carter abused
it. 1t is stated that his action was due
to the refusal of Congress to appropri-
ate the receipts of land sales in arid
States to the building OF. storage reser-
voirs. All the people in Nevada would
have been glad to see that appropria
ton made. But Mr.. Carter's revenge,
if revenge it was, is unjustifiable.
Is not desire for notoriety at the
bottom of it all? Aside from the mer-
its or dement's of any bill, this mode Of
killing it ought to be stopped forever.
1t may be fine thing in some body's
eyes, to be pointed out as the man who
talked bill to death. But it is a kind
of notoriety that we hope will never
become popular. Newspaper notor.ety
is, in fact, at the bottom of much that
is going on in our land Stop the pub
LEGATION of such stuff, and you stop the
stuff itself.

Comparison of Great Cities.

An interesting comparison between
the great cities OF the United States
and the great cities Of European coun-
tries is made by the st. Louis Globe
Democrat, which observes:
Tho United States has the dis
tinction of possessing a greater num-
Der OF cities of l, 200, 900 population and
upward than any other nation in the
world. No other country has more
than one city which passes this mark.
The United States has three-New
York, Chicago, and Philadelphia. 1t
would have hadl four II Brooklyn's
annexat ion to New York had not &C.
Cured. for the borough Of Brooklyn
has gone considerably beyond that line
this year. The United Kingdoms
second city, Glasgow, had 6ls, 900 in
habitants when the last British census
was taken in 1891, and 1t will still be a
long way below 1,000,000 in 1901.
Russia's second city, Moscow, had
S22, 900 population in 1891, and, from
the rate of increase in the previous
decades, 1t is still under the l, 900, 900
line. The countries which have cities
which exceed the 1000, 900 in popula-
ton are the United States, England
Hondon), France (Paris), Germany
(Berlin), Austria (Vienna), Japan
lTokyo), and Russia (St. Petersburg)
Canton is estimated to have 1000, 900
population and Picking to have 1,0OO,-
900, but these Chinese population fig
ures are conjectural.
America has the second city in the
world, New York. 1t has also the fifth
city. Chicago, for London, New York,
Paris, and Berlin are probably the
only towns in the world which are now
ahead of the Illinois metropolis. Can
ton, which was credited with 1000, 900
inhabitants a few years ago, is left out
of this calculation, for no reliable COM
putation has ever been made in that
town. Vienna had 1854, 900 in 1891
and Tokyo had 1,2l4, 900 in 1893, but
Chicago, with its 1858, 575 has I'M
doubtedly passed both of those today.
st. Petersburg, which had 1,033, 900
inhabitants in 1892, is not in the con-
test with Chicago. Philadelphia, with
its .293, 697 population. is running a
close race with st. Petersburg, and
possibly has beaten it. In any case,
Americas three big towns are very
near the head OF the list OF the world s
great population centers. New York,
with 3, 437, 202, is more than 1000, 900
behind London, the only city which
leads it for Paris inhabitants were q,
448, 900 in 1891, and can not have gone
beyond the 8, 900, 600 at the outside In
1900, but at the relative rate of gain
OF the two cities in the past half CEN
fury, allowing for annexation of terri
tory in both cases, New York is likely
to pass the British metropolis by 1925
or 1890. -

THE INAUGURATION.

William Mckinley second time is
President of the United States. He
was ushered into the office in a city
ablaze with more and finer decorations
than ever have graced the holiday
loving national capital, whose streets
resounding to the tread OF more march
ing soldiers and sailors than ever have
participated in like function and
had as witnesses to the ceremonies a
vast multitude, who cheered frequently
whenever he or his Vice-Presidenti
colleague was visible.
President Mckinley Is the eighth in
the illustrious line of Presidents OF the
United States thus accorded by the
American people with second and
consecutive term. simultaneously,
Theodore Roosevelt OF New York be-
came Vice-President of the United
States. The ceremony that marked
this second assumption by President
Mckinley OF the cares OF state, was
most impressive and full of suggestion
OF the developments Of the Republic
during the past four years.
Pennsylvania avenue, decorated with
miles OF bunting and with thousands
of flags trembling and futtering In the
gentle breeze, was lined with an inn
penetrable m ass OF people so early that
no one pretended to have arisen In
time to say when they began swarm
ing to their places. They surged III
and down both sides of the beautiful
avenue, overhowed the terraced stands
and balconies, walled in the window,
and fringed the roofs, while blarinf
bands clear-drawn bugle calls and
galloping aides told of the military le-
gions marching deep into the tangl,
OF streets to take their places in the
grand procession. The influence OF tn,
greatest multitude that ever invaded
the city overshadowed all the pagentr,
and most impressed the mind.
One Of the unique features OF the mil
itary display was a battalion OF tn,
Porto Rican regiment recently organ
lied in our island possession and recruit
ted from among the native population
They were not to be distinguished from
the other regular infantry regiment
except by their swarthy compilations
and evidences in their marching of al
enthusiasm that won them hearty ap
plause along the line OF march. Thei
welcome was OF the warmest.

Hon. A. G. Cleveland of our County,
delivered the address before the Amer
lean Cattle Growers Association, in
Denver. He said, in part: 1.-THE wool
growers of America have an associa
tion of their own, and there is no rea-
SON why the cattlemen should not have
one. There is no reason why cattle
man should contribute to an associa-
tion which does not protect his inter-
ests. The West belongs to the cattle
men. They were the people who re-
claimed the country from the India ms.
Whoever heard of sheepman being
killed by the Indians? Many of us who
are in the cattle business have had rel
atives killed by Indians. l had son
killed by the Indians, but there were
no sheepmen in the country at the
time. Sheep men are too slow to catch
up with any danger. l am referring
to those men who have their all inves-
ted in five dogs, wagon and few
sheep. Those men have no respect for
the rights of Others. We In our coun-
try have no trouble with them, because
there is certain tax levied which
keeps them out of the State. l have
never, myself had any trouble with the
sheepmen. | have avoided them when
| could, and they are, anyway, too slow
to associate with cattlemen."

THE INSANE ASYLUM.

DR.. Patterson, Superintendent OF
the Hospital for Mental diseases, ap-
peared before the Assembly and made
a short talk in favor of amending the
law to the committing of insane persons
to the asylum.
He said that there were some twenty
or more people at the asylum, who
had no business there and who had
been sent up from various counties to
save the expense Of maintaining them
at the poor house.
They were generally committed by
the County Clerk in the absence OF the
District Judge, and when they reached
the asylum were, according to the
