In March. 1888. Earl Spencer resigned

ministration In June, 1885, On the re-

Ger became for the second time lord
president Of tho council. BY this time
he had adopted home rule opinions. and
his support was of great value to the
government, though, as II afterward APP
psared, 1t did not carry the bill.
The University Of Dublin conferred on
Lord Spencer the honorary degree OF
Ill. d.. Juno 20. 1888.
In 1892, Mr. Gladstone sent Earl Spen-
Ger to tho admiralty. This. although n

ish minister of finance, who came to Ber-

the old German battleships Weissenburg
and kurfurst FREDERICK Wilhelm, which
have passed to the Turkish government.
in an interview yesterday expressed him
self enthusiastically regarding the develop
ment and regeneration Of his country.
Everywhere, he said, signs Of recupera-
ton were visible, the people were paying
taxes more willingly than ever. The gov
ernments policy Is to build railways and
highways as rapidly as possible
The railways most essential at the
present time are branch lines In Europen
Turkey to connect the various frontier
districts with the Orient railway for
strategic purposes.
DJavid Bey encouraged by his recent
success In raising a loan In Paris, ex-
pressed confidence that Turkey will be
able to borrow from Germany and other
countries sufficient money for carrying
out the proposed railway construction
One Of his chief objects while in Berlin
will be to make the acquaintance of
financers. and consult them with refer
ence to future financial plans.

with the disarmament Of the population

line irrespective OF the protest of Greece

Thus in l20 years the population has
been multiplied almost by % and 80 years
almost by three. We now have an aver
age Of about 90 inhabitants TO the square
mile, although there are many States and
Territories in which thsre Is square
mile of room for every two or three per-
sons. Ten years ago Rhode Island had
+N people 70 the square mile and Massa-
chusetts 34S. As showing that even these
old and comparatively small States are
not too crowded for comfort, It may be
said that. based upon the estimated pop
ulation Of Greater New York, there are
now about Is, 900 people to the square mile
In this city.
In 1890 the Northwest Territory had just
been organized. Both Illinois and Ohio.
States created In that region, now have
many more Inhabitants than were then
to be found in the whole country. The
population of these States added to that
of the other three-Michigan. Indiana and
Wisconsin-is now greater than that OF
the United States at the census Of 1910
Yet there We're men calling themselves
far sighted who only a hundred years
ago predicted that the Northwest Terri
tory was destined for all time to be the
home only of wild beasts and wilder men,
Since 1860 the center of population has
been moving west ward In what was once
the Northwest Territory.
Even more doloful prophecies were made
as to the fate of the Louisiana territory,
out of which have been formed States
that now have a population nearly three
times as large as that of all the States I'm

than were enumerated at the first ma

Texas has at least three times as many.

almost as many inhabitants as were re-
