TRIBUTE TO THE 4oAR FAMILY
or ND Rostnn Herald

From The Boston Herald
During The administration Of Rutherford B.
Hayes. President of the United States. VicePresi-
dent Wheeler guest Of honor the New
England Agricultural Fair at Worcester Upon his
arrival he brought 10 the agricultural grounds
in a carriage with SrHStnr George F. Hear and his
brother. Judge F. r. Hoar
In the crowd which surged about the carriage to
get a sight of the Nicc-iresideut there a
farmer from Sutton. who had been indulgtny il
the flowing bowl until he in trim to approach
the President himself. The farmer had great re
spect for Senator Hoar. and was more interested
in seeing him than any other member Of the party
He had many pictures OF the Senator. but
the original.
The. carriage stopped the Sutton man. and.
pushing his way to the side. he extended his hand
20 the sitting acNt him. and in his most pol
ishfd manner said Senator Hoar. II is one of the
proudest moments of my life to have the honor ~
shaking hands with you. l am one OF your farmer
constituents and am free to confess that look
upon YOU sir as the ablest man IN the nation.
The man whom the eloquence was addressed
smiled and said: Il am glad to meet you. sir. but.
unfortunately. am not the Senator, but hts
brother Judge Hoar
The farmer hraced himself second. and then
gave the hand Of the Judge another shake, as ne
said: sir. you a darned sight smarter man.

timing the boiling of eggs. The egg was suspenoeo
from the beam of pair Of scales and clipped IN a

trickled into the scale which hung from the other
end of the beam until the egg was cooked Then
the weight of the sand lifted the egg out of the
saucepan and rang an electric hell

NO NEED FOR NEW TAXATION,

The September Treasury statement ought To
quiet the nerves of those economists who have
been crying deficit for two wears past and
clamoring for new taxation as the governments
only safeguard against bankruptcy These ad-
vance agents of calamity were busy last fall
ngurlng out losing Treasury balance for the
year of about S144 O0OO 600 The actual deficit
was only a little more than S24OOnOOO. This
fall, because July and August both showed adj
verse balances. there has been similar ex-
hibihon of pessimism. 1t has been solemnIy
asserted that the governments loss on this
years opera tons will reach S50OOOOOO Sep
tembers statement cruelty punctures these
gloomy prophecies 1t not only fails to sustain
the contention that there must be "a deficit of
S50OO0,000," but shows pretty concIusivelv that
there will be no deficit at all.
During September the Urea s,lrv rolled I'm
surplus of SS,S92 159 This was a gain of
S2,995,476 over the record for September 1904
Each month of the present fiscal year has in
deed, shown turn for the better in Treasury
conditions. Julys deficit was S3.532. 746 smaller
this year than last year Augustus deficit was
smaller by S1.649O41 IN the three months.
therefore, the TTeasury's gain over last wears
record has been S8,230691. and instead If
losing balance for the first quarter of S17.S54.-
256-as in 1904-the Treasury faces now los

be seen that unless conditions change radically
further gain of $10O00,OO0 or S15OOO.OoO can
easily be made within the next nine months
This years better outlook is due primarily tn
larger customs receipts. For September there
increase in customs collections Of
s.. 100000 For the three months the increase
has been little less than S10,0000O0 Internal
revenue receipts for the quarter advanced about
S2,5O0,000 From miscellaneous sources there
was a falling off in revenue of So. 100000. but
this shrinkage due mainly 70 the fact that
between July ! and October l. 1904 the ST
Louis Worlds Fair paid back to the govern
ment the greater part of 81, 100000 which it
had borrowed a few months earlier The in
crease In the Treasury's income is therefore
really greater than is indicated by the figures
given
Another cause of this years excellent show
ing is the check put by Congress on national
expenditure. AS 3 rule each years dtsburse-
ments are greater than those of the wear pre

xEwYoRrs oNE.sIpEp GROWTH

The civ population bulletins issued last week
bv the State Department at Albany strongly
supuort the deductions made recently in these
columns relative to New-York's general rate OF
growth. We argued from the figures given for
Syracuse and BInghamton that the ratio OF
urban growth shown by the federal census OF
1900 would not be maintained under the 1903
enumeration in the area lying north of the West
chester County line. Below that line, we said.
the state would probably have to look hereafter
for the gains necessary to maintain its primacy
In the Union. Last weeks bulletins give the re
suits of the enumeration in four upstate cities
Utica, Elmira, Auburn and Rome-and In those
Westchester cites-Yonkers, Mount Vernon and
New Roehelle-which are included in the metro
politan district From study of these returns
the one-sided development TO which we called
attention becomes more plain.
Utica belongs 70 the faster growing group Of
upstate cities 1t made a gain from 1890 to
1900 of PSI per cent. This was a higher ratio
of increase than that shown by Syracuse or
Rochester Since 1900 Utica has annexed a
7,ortion of the town of Hartford, so that
its increase has been in a measure artihcialy
stimulated. It's present population is 62,935, 4
,aip of 552 since 1900. It's rate of increase for
the half decade is 116; for the full decade 232
r2,,t This is nearly FIVE points below its ratio of
Growth between 1890 and 1900 PSI. Auburn
hos T0VT a
1Qon If LOIS The percentage of increase for
&C voars is 3.3-or SO for the decade-against
ia for the decade between 1890 and 1900. Au-
burn and Utica show. in fact that same slight
slackening in growth which we noted last week
in the returns from Binghamton and Syracuse;
and the experience of these four urban centres
may, perhaps. be taken as typical OF general
conditions up the state
Rome and Elmira give results which seem ,
little exceptional Rome registered practically
no growth at all between 1890 and 1900, its in
crease being only 2.3 per cent In the last nVe
years its population has risen from 1888 &c
1857, a gain of 10, indicating a gain for the
decade of 15.S. Elmirs's total, on the contrary
has actually decreased. From 1880 TO 1900 this
city's ratio OF gain was 154. By the census OF
1905 il has 81. 692 inhabifants-9S0 less than in
igon This loss is doubtless due to a ruling OF
