SPECIAL Cable 10 The Washington Herald.
Vienna Nov. 23.-Twenty years Of a
remarkable evolution in the history of
moving pictures from the day Thomas
Edison startled the world with his pro-
jecting kaleidoscope to the present-day
wonders in film production, are shown
at the International Kino Exposition
which has been opened here in the beau
tiful building of the Gartenbaugesell-
sChaft
Only twenty years, and yet tremen-
dous development of one of the greatest
combinations of art and industry! II you
visit the exposition and have the good
fortune to meet one of the directors Of
the event, he will tell you that the great
display of machines and pictures repre-
sents the results of what was originally
the playful inspiration Of an American
inventive genius.
1t is the first time that the progress of
moving pictures is shown in a thor
oughly complete and instructive man
ner.

Netherlands, 30.7 per cent; for Swift
zerland, S1.2 per cent Among the
higher percentages are sos per cent
for Austria, 69.7 per cent for Hungary,
67.2 per cent for the Indian empire,
59.4 per cent for Italy, 49.S per cent for
Sweden. In the same statement 1t is
shown that the percentage for the
United States has declined from s8.1
In 1920.
Steady Decrease shown.
The fraction declined to IT'S per cent
in 1910, to AS per cent in 1870, to AL
per cent in 1880, to 37.2 per cent In
1890, and to 35.s per cent in 1900, or
about one-third OF the persons having
gainful occupations. During the eighty
years from 1890 to 1900, the agricul-
tural fraction declined from sal to asa
per cent and thus suffered loss Of
47.s per cent.
While the percentage has declined,
the actual number of persons ten years
Of age and over engaged in agriculture
has increased to a large figure. The
number was 2,06s. 9S5 in 1870 and was
about 1--WE times as large in 1900, or
10,2l9,651 persons. The census indi-
Gates the general rule that one person
employed in 1900 supports rs persons,
including himself. II this rule is ap-
plicable to the agricultural occupa-
tions. then It may be computed that
the agricultural population of this
country in 1910 was about $4,000 900.
Reduction Not serious.
In summing Up his conclusions upon
The Washington herald. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1906-1939, 1912-11-24

Holmes makes the following hopeful
comment:
The agricultural element in popula-
tons has declined, and still the people
are provided with food and raiment.
Some OF the countries have food and
fiber to sell and other countries need
10 buy; but, It is logical that the reIa-
tive decline OF the agricultural element
must eventually reach a point at which
It Is at equilibrium with industraiism.
Increasing production per acre and IN
cfeasing efficiency OF human labor, pro-
NOTED largely by implements and ma
chinery, permit q reduction Of the agri-
cultural element in the population rela-
lively to lower point than could be
reached and sustained by a crude agri-
culture"
Many interesting facts are contained
In the report. For example, 1.1O6, rs
negroes were engaged in agriculture in
1880. The number increased to 1344Il6 in
1900, and to 2,1oS,sSO In 1910 While the
number OF negroes thus increased, the
percentage relatively to the whole negro
population decreased, showing that the
movement toward cities affects the color
ed as It does the white race.
Increase in Women Workers.
In 1870. 81 per cent Of the agricultural

percentage increased to 1900 when II
was 95. and at the present time, Mr..
Holmes estimates that about one asri-
cultural worker in seven is a woman.
The reason assigned for the Increase in
the percentage of women workers is the
employment Of girls and women in pick
ing berries. sorting and packing fruit.
and in the canning establishments in va
rious parts Of the country. Picking cot
ton also is largely carried on by the
employment Of girls and women.
:. or the 4.A0,ST workers in 1900, about
766,ooo were Of foreign birth or had par
ents born IN foreign countries.
Speaking Of some of the causes which
result in the decline of farm labor, Mr..
Holmes puts first the glamor of city
life, and says:

places of these men have been taken by
those who are known as Progressives
In the house similar changes within
the republican party have taken place
Mr.. Cannon has retired from the speak
ership, but even before he was retired
by Democratic majority he had been
stripped of his power by Republican
Progressives. foremost of whom was
Representative Gardner. of Massachu-
sets, one of the staunchest support

who was a candidate for reelection,
and whose reelection President Roose-
welt had never cared to oppose, did lend
encouragement to those who opposed
the reelection of the speaker. and he
gave his cordial support to those who
sought and achieved the modification of
the house rules whereby the speakers
power was curtailed
Nor has President Taft ever opposed
any progressive movement in the SEN
ate. The charge that he sought to dis
cipline certain senators by Withholding
patronage because they were progress
sives is false. He did bring pressure to
bear on senators who. calling them
selves progressives, sought to block pro-
gressive legislation for purposes of their
own and who did hesitate to misrepre-
sent the administration and the railway
rate bill it sought to have enacted.
OF course, the defeated insurgents lost
no opportunity to misrepresent the ad-
ministration and the bill. but the people
have been enjoying the benefits of that
bill just the same, and only recently
were the express companies of the coun-
try ordered to reduce their rates under
provision of that very bill

trail political barque which has no mo-
tive power but the ambition of its cap
tain, no compass but the Whims Of
political opportunst.
Neither is it progressive to attempt to
launch a new political party with such
platform as was adopted by the Third
Termers at Chicago That pronounce
ment is not "a confession of faith 1t
is merely q collection of disconnected
propositions, each of which may be ad-
vocated by some progressive, but none
of which is advocated by all, and Which
was concocted solely for the purpose of
tempting the fancy of a wide variety of
economic thinkers.
1t includes fragments of so many
varying and even differing schools of
economic thought that it will never
hang together longer than a single cam
pai2n.
Device of a Politician"
No man can be at once a Socialist
and an anarchist, a single taXer, pro-
tectionist and a free trader. But the
Third party platform contains its bid
for the support of each. 1t is the inge-
NOUS device of a politician who under
estimates the capacity of the people to
think for themselves.
Then, too the Third party has no
reason for being other than the over
weaving ambition of one man again to
enjoy the power and prerogative of the
highest office in the land. Its candi-
date is not progressive at heart Had
ne been he would have eliminated him
self and devoted his energies at the Re-
publican national convention to nomi-
mating some wen known Progressive
like Governor Hadley or Senator Cum
Minis But he wanted only the nomina
ton for himself, and even the sugges
ton that he deliver his support to an
other aroused him to an almost insane
fury
And once President Taft was nOmi
mated there was no excuse for seeking
to disrupt the Republican party, for it
was and is the party of progress. 1t
has become the custom of some writ
ers and speakers to hold up to obloquy
certain senator's and representatives as
constituting the old guard, as being
the acme of reactionaryism l submit
that during the administration Of Pres
ldent Taft the representation" if l
may coin the word. of the Republican
party has been rapidly proceeding, as
those who constitute the old guard have
been passing into private life.
Senator hljrich, who has been most
extrayagantlt eXecrated, has retired to
private life. as has Senator Hale. Sen
ator Crane has announced that he will
not again be candidate. Senators Han
ma and Plat (of COnnectiCuD and AL
