HOW NEW YORK HAS GROWN.
Tho Metropolis Absorbed Villages as
Old as Itself In 1898.


A metropolis grows up in two ways
At first it expands legitimately. adding
furlong to furlong OF growth. Then it
leaps forward and Seizes a large area
overnight by act of Legislature or par
lament, sweeping into its net Il score
of villages and settlements. Then il
proceeds to consolidate its position by
filling up the intervening spaces. In
European cities they have an inner
ring. which is the old city. and an
outer ring. which may be anything.
New York. Chicago. Boston. Seattle
have their inner rings. which are the
legitimate city. and the outer ring
which came by the get-big-Quick meth
od. New York succumbed to the pro
moter's fever I'm 1898. In that year the
city absorbed large areas OF virgin soil
and chain OF independent villageS
some OF them nearly as old as Man
haitian itself From the sound TO the
Atlantic they stretch across the back
bone of Long Island and the lower
harDor to Staten Island. where the To-
cal tradition in spite of municipal fer
ries and promised tunnels has remained
al its strongest.
Such frenZied expansion Is the reason
why the traveller in the nearer suburbs
OF great city will often come across n
city line which Is no longer the city
line. AS you near the old city line
from the heart Of population the solid
blocks Of apartments and fats thin
out There follow stretches OF waste
land. market gardens. cemeteries. 1t
Is across this zone between the old and
the new city lines that the transit rail
ways throw their surface lines and Gle
vated extensions" and close behind
them are the builders crisscrossing the
raw acres with their lines of frame"
and brick.-Simeon Strunsky In Har.

w. Mangum, Sheriff of Fulton Coun-
ty, of Atlanta, Ga.
Sheriff Mangum needs no introduc-
tion to the people of this section, as
he is unquestionably not only one OF
the best known but one of the most
popular officials in the State of Geor-
gia. He is also known to be, by every
one, a kind, genial gentleman of the
old school and has reputation of
being the biggest hearted man in pub
lie life today. His friends are legion
and his extreme popularity as man
and as public official is further at
tested by the fact that he is now
serving his third term as sheriff of
Fulton county.
For some years he was railroad
official, but has been in public life
since 1907. He served in the Con-
federate Army from 1862 to 1865 in
the First Georgia Regiment, and lat
er in the Fifth Georgia.

more If they will just get out and do
their very best. Mr.. Boriskie has
been the manager and captain Of the

says that the large percentage of won

1t is remarkable to say the least.
how the friends and proponents of
the State permanent warehouse law
contend that 1t is such a great bene-
fit to all agricultural interests and
especially that portion relating to and
regulating the gins. 1t becomes more
remarkable when we read that the
1900 ginners of Texas now in session
in Dallas bitterly condemn the law
and declare that 1t is pushing them
into bankruptcy. So earnestly are
they opposed to the law that a resolu-
ton was passed asking for a special
session of the legislature to repeal 1t,
or amend the Objectionable sections.
If it is so beneficial 1t is to be won
dered at that the ginners cannot see
II that way. The statements of the
friends of the measure, and of the
ginners do not tally.

The home should be made a sacred,

1t really sounds strange to hear
people talking about not taxing the
home. 1t is so at variance with the
present program. Now the small
home.owner bears the brunt of the
burden. His little home stands out in
the open where 1t can be seen Of all
men and there is no possibility OF its
escaping the tax rolls. The chief
items of the wealth of the country
stocks, bonds, notes, mortgages and
other securities are hid away in strong
boxes and it is hard to bring them to
light. The tax assessors of the coun-
try. armed with cork screw and can
opener, can succeed in getting only
a very small portion of them into the
tax gatherers records. The home
never escapes, and talk of exempting
them sounds like fairy tale.
