An exchange says that the farmer moves the earth. If the editor had said the farmer moves the world he would have made a statement of broader sense and just as far from contradiction. In the United States the average yield of potatoes is said to be 85 bushels to the acre. In Germany, France, Belgium and Englund the average yield per acre is about 250 bushels. What more could be said in favor of intensive farming against planting more land? The new census will show that 60 more cities have risen into the class marked by a population of 25,000, making in all about 220 cities with a population above the number. They are mostly in the West. But it will also be noticed that many of them are not as big as they thought they were, UNDESIRABLE WEALTH. The banker who recently showed that “'if Adam bad put out $1at1 per cent interest, it would have amount- ed to $664,597,604,358,947,648,” (which means 664 quadrillions), took us just a little too far beyond our depth. But we can grasp the sum, perhaps, by looking at it in another way. A pound of gold is worth about $350. So $664,597,604,- 358,947,648 would weigh about 2,000,000,000,000,000 pounds or 1,000,000,000,000, tons. A cubic foot of gold weighs about 1,200 pounds so the above weight can be reduced into 830,000,000 cubic feet This would mean a cube of gold 30,000 feet (or six miles) long, six miles wide and six miles high. THE GORE SENSATION. Senator Gore’s action in dragging Vice President Sherman into his bribery allegations has (taking his own words)flimsy warrant. The senator’s charge is that one, Jacob Hammon, an Oklahoma politician in offering him (Gore) a bribe “mentioned” the vice-president. If the vice-president of the United States in any way is involved in an improper public transaction he should not be spared violent rebuke and extreme punishment,—the more extremeas his position inthe nation’s affairs is high. And he will be dealt out relentless justice by the present administration. But the testimony of Senator Gore (though his office ag United States Senator makes his charge one that must be given attention)is so far without any DEFECTIVE substantial basis. The vice presi- dent, probably today will have a word for the public.—Ex. The man who spits against the wind spits against himself. Who among the young fellows would bother with having a girl if it were not fashionable. Few men appreciate what good times they have until after they have lost their jobs. ‘The proudest moment of a boy’s life is when he has a ticket for the circus. EMPRESS TAITU 1S CAUGHT Attempts to Escape From Abyssina in Male Attire. Berlin, Aug. 11.—Dispatches from Adis Abeba say that Empress Taitu of Abyssinia recently attempted flight from the capital, disguised in male at- tire. She was captured and. forcibly returned to the palace. It was Taitu’s intention to seek ref- uge with her brother, Ras Olie, who is governor amd practically the inde- pendent ruler of one of the southern provinces of Abyssinia. She is sus- pected of designs on the life of Lidj Jessau, the boy emperor, who recently ascended the throne in place of the decrepit Menelik, and is the object of bitter hatred on the part of the pres- ent predominant party.
