Ahearn as presi- dent of the borough, an office from which he had been removed a few days before by Gov. Hughes. The vote was 24 to 2.

 The presence of W. J. Bryan in Guth. rie, Okla, recently inspired the chaplain of the lower house of the Legislature to pray, that Mir. Bryan might be the next President of the United States.

The Speaker added empha. sis by putting 1t as question to the body, Every Democrat present answered lave" !" Later both branches of the Legislature met to listen to a speech by Mir.

have been wiped out by the farmers,

have been wiped out by the farmers, still leaving more than $6,0O0, 900 000 to our credit abroad. To put 1t In a nutshell, the agricultural exports Of the United States have kept our credit above par In all the trading nations. The American farmer Is the producer, the creator of wealth, and all chan nels of finance and commerce respond to his prosperity. The overpopulated countries of Europe are gradually be- coming industrial hives. AS the man. ufacturing centers multiply, agriculture dwindles. The toilers of the cities and factory towns must be fed. They must buy their grain and meat, for the most part, abroad. A blight In foreign crops would be felt more quickly among Flu ropean consumers than In the produc- ing countries. Europes industrial prosperity hinges on Its ability to buy foreign foodstuffs at moderate prices. So long as American farmers can raise such vast surpluses, and can compete on even terms with other agricultural countries as to quality and prices, their control of the European market Is as sured. And 50 long as agriculture keeps us In the list of creditor nations, this country's fiscal stability Is as i'm. pregnable as Gibraltar.

Illustration of the Fact That Even Prosperity Has It's Drawbacks.

Illustration of the Fact That Even
 Prosperity Has Its Drawbacks.
 Such case as that of Simon E. Bernheimer, of New York, who, having millions to his credit, makes a choice of all the things In the world and de- cides that he best enjoys beating a bass drum. Is an example of modern nery- ous prosperity. says the Reader Maga- zine. When In 1886 the Amicitia or chestra was created, composed of culti- vated music lovers and clever amateur performers, Bernheimer asked permis- sion to beat the bass drum. His friends were under the impression that he was joking, but he produced his drum-the best that money could buy-and decn- onstrated his skill to their satisfaction. Later. the interesting musical organi- zation dissolved, and the drummer was gested that, since he had no other fad, he should organize band of his own and beat the drum in that. He acted on this advice. His band costs him $20.000 annually, but this Is none too large a sum for the attainment of his hearts desire. Inconspicuous and con- tent, be sits under the baton of his paid leader, and thrums hls drums.
 Then there Is the case of certain young gentleman In New York who gave a dinner and who appealed to his guests with the inquiry:
 And what In Gods name am to do tomorrow night?"
 "Go out" suggested some one. "I have been everywhere"
 "Stay in."
 "There's no one I want to see"
 '"Try solitude"
 That has become insupportable."
 Start on journey"
 Where could I go? I have been ev' anywhere"
 "Go again."
 But I have been many times. detest travelling"
 "Get married"
 "I know too much about women.'
 "Get drunk"
 "I have been drunk so often-and or so many things! It extinguishes me to think of it."
 Be good"
 But howl"
 Nobody could answer, though they were all willing enough to be witty about It. When the next night came he had blown out his brains. He had to find some new way of spending the evening.
 All this Is part and parcel of the same thing-all symptoms of the dis ease of nervous prosperity. But not all of us, fortunately, are to be afflicted with 1t. It Is not contagious. Need the good, wholesome press of necessity keeps the greater part of us Immune

Steel-CIad Grubber

Ambassadors of the United States to Great Britain are by tacit arrangement professional optimists. They are ex- pected to put the country's best foot forward whenever they have a chance. Whitelaw Reid, the optimistic successor of famous optimists, Is doing his share. On a recent occasion he took our na- tlonal population for subject of an address-after he had proved conclu- sively that the financial panic was not tured a time when the country would be stuffed full of people as the Thanks giving bird was full of dressing. Be- fore the end of the next presidential term, Mir. Reid predicts, we shall have forty-six States and 10O,0O0,OOO people. The forty-six States are with us now, and the 100,O0O,0OO people are certain ly coming. But 1t is the getting of them by 1913 that Is the test and proof of optimism. Since 1870 our population has been increasing at the rate of 12,- 0O0,0O to 100000 persons per dec ade. The increase was about 12,OOO, 900 between 1870 and 1880, and the same between 1880 and 1890 Between 1890 and 1900 1t was about 100000, and the government estimates for the in- crease between 1900 and 1907 would work out at the rate of just about that big an increase for the decade we are now in. We had population of 78,. 3O0.0OO in 1900; We have an estimated population of s5,OO0,OOO this year, and We may expect about 90,0OO,0O0 by 1910. But to pull that figure up to 100, ,OOO, 900 by March 4, 1913, will keep the optimlsts busy. Especially will they have to do hard figuring at a mo- ment when recent immigrants are scur-
 ying to become emigrants. Perhaps Mir. Reid is figuring that the present Presidents exhortations on the general subject of race suicide will bear their fruit during the term of his successor and send the population skyward hy leaps and bounds.
