NINETY MILLION TONS.
Weight of Cereals Grown I'm the
United States in One Year.
From Success

The story of American agriculture has
been the story of our growth in population
and of the extension of our national
domain-a record without a parallel In the
history of the world. A Chicago man once
said that he had lied a great many times
about the growth of his city, but Provi-
dence had always quickly come TO his
relief. It would take a gifted liar to over
state the growth of our agriculture or
exaggerate the marvel of its present pro-
portions. The diflculty is to prod imagina-
ton to any appreciation of the simple
facts.
Uncle Sam already occupies the urst
rank among the farmers OF the world In
the magnitude and value of his crops.
Although his family constitutes only one
twentieth OF the human race, he produces
nearly one-third OF the worlds food supply,
while Russia, which comes next as a food
producer, has one-twelfth of the worlds
population and supplies less than one-ffth
of its food Compare our wheat crop for
1900 with that of the other leading wheat
countries OF the world.

TAXATION IN ILLINOIS AND NEBRASKA

TAXATION IN ILLINOIS AND NEBRASKA.
Governor Yates of Illinois signed the
tax levy bill for 19O3-19O4 under pro-
test. The governor of Illinois declares
that the bill will bring into the state
treasury 100000 more than possibly
can be used for the next two years, and
asserts that were it not for the expense
involved he would have vetoed the bill
aud convened the legislature in special
session to pass another one.
According to Governor Yates, the Illi-
nois Central railroad alone will pay into
the state treasury during the years
1903-1004 100000 and the license fees
collected by the secretary of state will
aggregate $1,oOo.OOo. License fees and
taxes collected by the insurance depart
ment $500, 900, inheritance tax $1,100,-
600, and miscellaneous sources S500,000,
making an aggregate of $5,400,000, or
$2,7O0,OO0 a year, exclusive of taxes
levied on real estate, personal property
and franchises of corporations, and ex-
elusive also of all the taxes levied on
railroads excepting alone the Illinois
Central.
A comparison between the revenues
of Illinois and Nebraska is not very
creditable to this state. The Illinois
Central alone pays nearly as much in
state taxes as do all the railroads in
Nebraska in state, county, city and
school district taxes The estimated rev.
enue of the state of Illinois from licenses
and fees and from inheritance taxes
collected by the secretary of state and
insurance department aggregates for
the years 19O3-19O4 $3,4OO,000. The es-
timated revenues from the same sources
in Nebraska for two years are $780,
551.94. -.
The most suggestive thing of these
figures Is the divergence between the
forced contributions of insurance com
panies and amounts collected from in
heritance tax. The aggregate amount
Of fees received by the auditor of Ne
braska for two years ending November
80 1902, is $S3, 1910, or $41,57s.55 for
each year. and the total amount of in
heritance tax collected into the state
treasury during the two years ending
November 80, 1902, is the munificent
sum of $64.74, which would seem to in
dicate an indisposition on the part of
Nebraskans to inherit anything of value
In these prosperous times.

whAT CIV oUR GoYERnMrnr nn,


When the Department of State was
asked by an official of the Jewish So
cieties in the United States to use it's
good offices for securing permission to
distribute money and provisions to the
Jews at Kischineff, the American am
bassador at st. Petersburg was
promptly instructed to present the mat
ter to the Russian government. He was
officially Informed that there was no oc-
casion for the donations, as no distress
existed, but that the charitable offer
from America was appreciated and the
government of the United States
thanked for it's interest.
There is feeling which has been
voiced in public meetings and expressed
in appeals to the State department, that
our government should take some ac.
tion by way of condemnlng the horrible
atrocities at Kischineff, but however
strongly the Washington authorities
may sympathize with this feeling, they
do not see that they can properly do
anything. 1t has been assumed that
what was done in the case of the perse-
cution of the Jews in Roumania fur
nished a precedent, but it is pointed out
that the circumstances are very differ
ent, since the effect of the Roumanlan
expulsion was to drive many of the ex-
PEELED people to this country. It ap-
pears, therefore, that American con-
demnation of the Kischlneff outrages
must be confined to such pooular ex-
pressions as have already been made.

PRESERVING THE BIG TREES.
President ROOsevelts Visit to the
MOnarchs of the Forest.
San Francisco Chronicia

President Roosevelt obtained a first
glimpse of California's big trees in Santa
Cruz county, and he paid graceful tribute
there to the strong sentiment which pre-
walls throughout the state for the preser-
walton of the monarchs of the forest. "This
is my first glimpse of the big trees" he
said, while standing under the shadow OF
the grove. II desire TO pay tribute to the
associations, private owners and state for
preserving these trees; also to the citizens
who acted in co-operation with the state
in preserving these wonderful trees" He
| then seized opportunity to rebuke the spirit
of vandalism which prompts some foolish
| people to defaee the beauties of nature fol-
the qualification of personal vanity. "Al
of us desire to see nature preserved" he
said. above all, the trees should not be
marred by placing cards or names on them
People who do that should be sternly dis
couraged. Cards give an air of ridicule
to the solemn and majestic giants They
should be taken down" The suggestion
bore fruit on the spot, for, while the presi.
dent strolled alone through the grove tc
enjoy its beauties unmolested, the crowd
which he had just addressed removed al
once the evidences of vandalism which had
given offense to his sight
However, there was a promise of some.
thing more in this Injunction to protect
these giant redwoods from destruction
See to 1t that the trees are preserved
You can never replace a tree" he reminded
| his hearers Preserve and keep what ma.
| ture has done" AS the presidents atten.

petual preservation. We may rest secure

THE TuLLOCR cHARGrS.

The charges OF Irregularities in the
POstOffice department preferred by the
former cashier of the Washington city
postoffice are sufficiently serious, but
they are not so startling as rumor had
given reason to anticipate. The i'm
preston which had been conveyed was
that Mr.. Tulloch would show that the
administration of postal affairs had
been altogether rotten, that irregulari-
ties and abuses existed in every
branch of it. 1t is a relief to tnd, so
far as his statement is concerned, that
such was not the case and that the
wrongdoing was chiefly or wholly in a
single branch, for which a former first
assistant postmaster general is alleged
TO have been mainly responsible.
There will be no disposition anywhere,
and certainly none on the part of the
present administration OF the depart
ment, to minimize the seriousness OF
the charges preferred. There should be
and undoubtedly will be a thorough IN
vestigation Of them and If they are
proven to be well founded those who
were responsible for the irregularities
must be held to a just accountability

THE PEOPLE WILL DECIDE.

There continues to be intimations,
having a more or less plausible charac-
ter, of secret movements hostile to the
nomination of President Roosevelt by
the next republican national convention.
1t is very well understood that there is
considerable railroad opposition to
Mr.. Roosevelt and II is quite safe to
assume that none of the trust magnates
desire his nomination. The antagonism
Of these was expected from the moment
the president showed his determination
to enforce the laws. Finding Mr..
Roosevelt firm against their re-
monstrances and entreaties the men
controlling the great combinations
turned against him and doubtless are
losing no opportunity to make their OPP
position effective. Without being dis
posed to underrate the influence OF this
hostility to the president we do not be-
lieve It will be able to prevent his nomi-
nation.
But it is said that certain prominent
republicans, leaders in their respective
states, are plotting against the presi-
dent. 1t is difficult to believe that the
statement has any substantial founda-
ton, for the men named In this connec-
ton have been understood to be most
friendly to Mr.. Roosevelt and to be In
accord with the overwhelming senti-
ment Of the republican party in favor of
his nomination. Moreover, it seems
most improbable that such republican
leaders as Senator Hanna and Senator
Fairbanks would adopt course certain
to create more or less discord In the
party and thereby impair its chances of
winning in the next national campaign.
They may not be altogether pleased and
satisfied with the presidents course, but
as experience and sagacious politicians
they understand that party harmony is
essential to success next year and they
must also realize that their own politi-
cal future very largely depends upon
national republican victory in 1904.
Senator Hanna has frequently been
not be candidate for presidential NOM
ination. 1t has been reported that he
even so stated to Mr.. Roosevelt. Sen
ator Fairbanks, while he has been
spoken Of as a possibility, is not known
to have any support outside OF Indiana
We cannot think that either of these
distinguished republicans will imperil
their party by allying themselves with
the railroad and trust opposition to
Theodore Roosevelt
Referring to this opposition the Bal
timore American says: "It may be said
to these men once and for all that the
republican party will not turn its back
upon Roosevelt at their bidding. In his
attitude toward these men Mr.. Roose-
velt has championed the interests of
the great body of the American popu-
lace and, while the trust hackers and
promoters may rail against him, he has
his supporters in the rank and file of
the people," Theodore Roosevelt is to-
day firmly intrenched In the confidence
and the respect of vast majority of
the American people. They know him
to be honest and sincere and to have
the courage to do what he believes to
be right. The people, not the combina-
tions, will decide who shall be nomi-
mated by the next republican national
convention and all signs indicate that
the decision will be overwhelmingly and
perhaps unanimously for Theodore
Roosevelt.
