ARIZONA AND new
Mexico LAST STATES

Since the Thirteen Colonies became
the Nation in 1888, thirty-five states
have been added TO the Union. The
United States have multiplied at the
handsome rate of one state for every
three and half years of national
existence. Decidedly there is a shock
in the suggestion that we now have
come to the end of our tether. For
the end, if end it prove, closes an
epoch.
Congress has passed the act enab-
ling Arizona and New Mexico to form
state governments and become equal
shareholders in the Union Thus, the
last of the contiguous territories are
hidden into the great American Fed
Grafton.
Many questions arise: Shall we
forever remain a close, compact broth
erhood of forty-eight mutually depend
ent and respectively independent
states? There is no such design yet
further changes are evidently far off
in time. Doubtless one or more states
will be founded in Alaska. Some say
the Japs. Chinese and spineless ma
tives of Hawaii even now aspire to
he voters of a mid-Pacific state. Our

yield. The only danger now confront
ing this great staple, which provides
, SO large part of our export trade
is too much rain. Neither dry MOI
hot weather will harm it, rather in
crease the promise. Texas and Okla
homa parched by three years drouth
have had ample rains the past month
to save the cotton from the disaster
of the two previous years, and the en-.
tire region of the fieecy crop is up To
the highest recorded condition in the
midsummer.
On a similar condition in 1904 the
south made 13,S00,000 bales on ST.
100000 acres. Our correspondents re-
port crop promise now of 14,700,OOO
bales, and with only a normal impair
ment from now on this promise may
be more than fulfilled, and not only
the fourteen million but the fifteen
million record be made.
There is a compensation in the
large cotton crop for the lighter
yields of coarse grains in the north.
the south has frequently been a large
consumer of corn and oats from the
north. Her corn crop this year is
just about ample for the needs of the
past two years, but the cotton seed
is one of the best animal foods in the
world, and the large crop promises
as sure an over abundance for feed
ing, and independence of the northern
corn and oat markets, and in prob
ability the south may be a shipper of
corn during the coming season.
Potato Yield Is Short.
The vegetable outturn has been af-
fected by the drouth, and there is Il
failing off in many of the principal
articles of consumption, notably po-
tatoes, which last year furnished a
crop of 2S0,000,000 bushels. but which
this year is likely to fall under 200,-
100000 bushels, the heaviest losses
being in the western and central
states, northward the crop has been
fairly good. The tomato crop is prom
ising, and the bean crop central
around the lakes is up to the average
The net agricultural yield of the
country is sufficient for the require
ments of the people, and for the main
tenance of the stock and feeding ami
mails, but there will be no increase in
feeding operations or preparations for
increasing herds and stock such as
marked last autumn.

MOTHER EARTH
is CAPRICI0US
oh'cago Authorities Think This Years
Crop Will Be Good All
Over the Country.

Ihe annual crop and business re-
port of the Continental and CONNER
cial National Bank of Chicago, says:
Mother Earth has been more capri
clous in her favors to the tiller of the
soil this year than for some seasons:
her variations from normal Yields
more general than the two preceding
seasons of irregular crops. The
douth has been extensive, holding in
its grip the affected region of a year
ago, and extending its sway eastward.
Yet there has not been a serious i'm
pairment the nation over, "There is
bread and food enough for all'' and
the breaches In the average produc-
tion are only in some products, and
in nearly every section the losses in
one are compensated by the gain in
other fruits of the soil. The section
which has suffered in, nearly all of its
harvests, is that which was once call
ed the "Great American Desert" and
which periodically undergoes condi-
tions that impress upon the residents
therein that they are yet In a semi
arid region, where the prodigality of
nature is a freak not a rule.
Poor Yield of Hay and Oats.
On the plowed lands, the grain
crops of the great agricultural region
of the west were excellent in Yields,
but the grasses requiring more mois-
ture to feed the larger root area we're
the chief sufferers from the drouth.
Not in many years was pasturage so
poor, or hay Of AL kinos so light in
Weld. Cool rains fell in the mid-sum-
mer; the weather has been more cool
since June than usual. so the late pas
ture. and the forage crops promise
to make up much of the loss in the
rough feeding crops.
The oat crop over the entire coun-
try falls below the average yield; its
losses bearing a direct proportion to
the rainfall.
Our reports show total wheat pro-
duction of 642,000,000 bushels. COM
pairing with the governments final
Weld of 695,O0O.OOO last year. which
is equal to a ten years average pro-
duction, and 50,000,00O more than the
country requires for bread and seed.
The aggregate yield of oats is S24,
100000 bushels, nearly 100000 900
less than the governmnt's final esti.
mate last year. and only 25,OO0,0
less than ten years. average produc-
tion. Corn is in the making and while
estimates at his period are subject to
great changes In the actual, our cor
respondents show an aggregate pro-
mise of a crop of 2,S2S, 900, 900 bush
els, which is just ten per cent under
last year, and 10O,000,000 bushels over
a ten year average. The hay crop is
estimated by our correspondents at
100000 tons, or 100000 tons un-
der last year, and rs per cent under
the ten year average. The minor
grains show a variation, barley as
much as last year, rye ten per cent

DIAMONDS COME
FROM VOLCANO

From Consul-General John p. Bray,
Sydney, Australia: The local press
reports as follows on the discovery
of diamonds at Copeton, in the north
eastern portion of New South Wales:
Early in August further rich de-
velopments took place at the Deep
Shaft mine, and the wash has increas-
ed from two feet to six feet in thick
ness. This heavy deposit is rich in
its diamond inclusions The diamonds
won from this claim are fine, round,
and plump stones and octahedrons are
conspicuous throughout the parcel
This wash is making into the deep
country and increasing in thickness
as the drive is made down the dip in
the country rock bottom A crosscut
from the main drive some distance
from the face has just been put in
From here the wash, which is two feet
thick, produced thirty diamonds from
quarter of a truck washed as a
trial prospect. These thirty diamonds
weighed in the aggregate twelve
crates. By the primitive method
handsifting in tub Of waterloo
carats of diamonds were obtained
within a few days in testing the value
of the wash
An interesting feature of this dis
covery is that the opinion is held To-
cally that this particular hill shows
the outline of an extinct volcano, from
which it is assumed The lead in ques-
ton has been fed from the extinct
crater. In other words, that it is the
source from whence the diamonds
came.

AN JAPANESE
FEELING IN CHINA

TOXIC, Sept. 12.-(By Mail)-The
Japanese journals largely discuss the
prevalence of anti-Japanese feeling in
China. Occidental customs are tolef-
ated as the outcome of racial differ
ence and immemorial usage, but such
an excuse does not apply to Japan,
which is regarded as a mere upstart
and a renegade from the PHILOSOPHERS
and conventions of the nation at
whose feet she sat for twenty cen
turtles.
Several causes have recently con-
tributed to accentuate this feeling
First is the declaration of Marquis
Komura in the Diet that eastern Asia
is the only safe field for Japanese
emigration. Second, the fact that the
construction Of the Yalu bridge is be
ing rapidly pushed forward. Third,
the rumors, which are widely be-
lieved, that the recent epidemic in
Manchuria was not really plague, but
was caused by the poisoning of the
wells by the Japanese. Fourth, the
belief that the inquiries which are be-
ing conducted in the interior of China
by Japanese, though avowedly for
scientific and commercial purposes
are in reality military spying.
The cutting of telegraph wires and
the derailing of trains in ever-increas
ing numbers in Manchuria are among
the results of anti-Japanese senti
ment.
