EXPANSION OF AMERICAN WEALTH
Half a century ago the wealth of
the United States was estimated at a
little more than $7,000ltX).OOO. At
the present time it is placed at $110,
000,000,000. During this half cen
tury the population of the country
was multiplied by less than three and
one-half while the wealth was multi
plied by a little more than thirteen.
During this period every person's
share in the total wealth was multi
plied by four.
The census of hfty years ago
showed that the United States in
point of wealth stood below half a
dozen nations of the Old World. To
day all those nations have been en
tirely outdistanced.
In a recent number of the World's
Work, C M. Hoevey gives some
startling figures. He says: "Although
the United States comprised only 5
per cent of the world's population, it
produced, according to the last cen
sus, 22 per cent of the world's wheat.
30 per cent of its gold, 32 per cent j .
... . . , -. -i i
oi its coal, A6 per cent m us silver.
34 per cent of its manufactures, 35
per cent of its iron. 36 per cent of
its cattle, 38 per cent of its steel, 50
per cent of its petroleum, 54 per cent
of its copper, 75 per cent of its cot
ton and 84 per cent of its corn.
"Though the United States has only
a twentieth of the world's inhabit
ants, it has a fifth of the world's stock
of money and a fourth of -its gold
coin and bullion. The United States
has two-thirds C$14,000,000,000) of
the world's banking power capital,
surplus, deposits and circulation. Her
pre-eminence in these directions has
been obtained in the past twenty
years. Between 1890 and 1904 the
banking strength of the world grew
105 per cent and that of New York
City 190 per cent.
"How is all this wealth distributed?
The farmers and planters of the coun
try received last year more than
$6,000,000,000 for their products.
This equals the wealth of the entire
country in 1845. The product of the
country's mines for 1904 amounted to
$1,500,000,000. The United States
has a third of all the money deposited
in the savings banks of the world.
At the beginning of 1905 there were
in the United States 212,000 miles of
railroad, as compared with 300,000
miles for the entire world outside.
The railroads earned $2,000,000,000
in 1904, and have in their employ 1 ,
300,000 persons."
Here is how the principal countries I
of the world stand in wealth in 1905:

MAKING A SUBSTITUTE FOR EGGS
Science, prompted and urged by
the commercial instinct, has demon
strated that casein, from ordinary
eows' milk, is quite as good for baking
as the finest hen eggs, and a company
with $6,500,000 capital has been
formed to manufacture out of it a
substitute for the "strictly fresh"
product of the poultry yard. One
pound of casein is equal to six dozen
eggs. August Belmont is a large
stockholder in this corporation, which
already, though only an infant, puts
oat about 1,300 pounds a day, the
equivalent of 86,400 eggs.
The hen's only remaining advantage
lies in the unhatchableness of the
rival product and its incasement in a
box instead of a shell. She alone can
be the mother of broods and flocks of
chickens.
Casein cannot deprive her
of that cherished privilege.

tificial egg has arrived, but not the j have already cost the government

new land oitfce instructions. j
In the hope of suppressing a grow
ing tendency among attaches of
I'nited States Land offices uncon
sciously to encourage entrymen in
the commission of perjury and other
wise make false oath in connection
with final proofs. Commissioner
Richards, of the Ceneral Land Office
at Washington, D. C. has promulgat
ed instructions to Registers and Re
ceivers of local I -and Offices, 1 nited
States Commissioners and others in
terested throughout the country, pre
scribing what their duties shall con
sist of. and in effect cautioning them
to be more careful hereafter in the
matter of identity of persons appear
ing before them.
The opinion is generally expressed
that they were undoubtedly made
necessarv bv developments in the
Western land fraud cases, it appear
ing that in many instances fraud
would noj otherwise have been re
sorted to had it not been that land
officials it taking final proofs and af
fidavits of location, frequently in
dulged in leading suggestions of ans
wers to the questions that resulted
practically in the commission of per
jury by the affiants.
It is claimed that in many particu
lars the officials are not actuated by
any desire to flagrantly violate the
laws, but that their offense in this
connection relates more closely to in
difference and eagerness to get rid of
as much of the public domain as pos
sible, on the theory that it is of such
little account that the Government
can afford to strain a point or two in
the effort to accomplish this purpose.
It is thought the new instructions
will? have a beneficial effect all
arognd.
The telephone
communication
is revolutionizing
throughout the
world. Take the last greatbattle be
tween the Japanese and the Russians
as an example. Could Field Marshal
Otonkm directed the operations
af 400,000 men, and have timed his
strokes so exactly, bad he been forced
to depend u on orders carr ed by '
horse? How could he have con
trolled a fighting line a hundred miles
ng? Without the telephone the
operations would have been carried
on by a number of generals, each
acting according to a certain plan,
but depending largely ipon his own
judgement for what to do and when
to do it. The telephone co-ordinated
the actions of teach division, and re
duced the armies to one vast machine.
Nothing was left to chance: every
stroke was correctly timed, and the
commander-in-chief was at once in
formed of its result. Even the fly
ing columns were followed by the
engineering corps: the result of every
skirmish and the taking of every vil
lage were known quickly at head
quarters. In the final conclusive
naval battle of last August, in which
the Russian vessels left Port Arthur
harbor to attack a few apparently
unsupported Japanese vessels, the
latter called up the main Japanese
fleet, then out of sight, but in wait
ing, by means of wireless telegraphy
On land the Japanese have erected
telephone lines as they advanced, and
kept the government in Tokio in com
munication and each army in touch
with the other. The telephone in
this service has taken the place of
the curier, and does the work better
and more quickly.
You have no enemies? Then you
have never dared stai d up for the
right against the wrong; you have
never protected the weak against the
bully; you have never dared defend
your own right against oppression.
Had you done any of these things you
would have enemies. Even if you had
done none of these things, but simply
achieved a little more success in your
business than your neighbor, you
would have an enemy, for failure al
ways hates success. The man who
has no enemies should be ashamed of
it.

DETAILS OF FISHER,
SHERIDAN TROUBLE
S. Sheridan Has Filed His Sec
ond Suit against C. H. Fisher
Involving $4224.
A late dispatch from Noise Idaho,
says: Troubles which have affected the
Evening Capital News of ttiia city, for
some w eeks came to a head Friday when
the board of directora met and deposed
C. II. Fisher as editor of the paper.
In a statement this evening by It. S.
Sheridan for publication, a remarkable
stale of affairs is brought out. It seems
various efforts w ere made some months

improve the plant of the paper Finally
according to Mr. Sheridan, C. II. Fisher
and W.J. D'Arey, holders of a much
Bmaller portion of the stock than Mr
Sheridan, made an arrangement to get a
large sum oi money from J. II. Grady
chairman ot tbe It publican state com
mittee.
For the purpose of enabling them to
carry on the negotiations, Sheridan
assumed his stock to F'ifher. As stated
bv Sheridan, Fisher issued that stock
and that of D'Arcv and himself, to
lieorce I'. Townseiid, of Chicago, an
associate of Brady.
In the course ot time, Sheridan got a
purchaser for the paper. The others ob
jected. Finally he says be realized be
had Ih'oii deceived bv his partners. He
demanded the return of his stock, but
they coald not or would not return it.
He now proposed to bring a suit against
I'.radv, Fisher and IV A rev to recover the
slock. He will also sue Fisher for
money w hich ne a leges the latter holds,
belonging to the company, and another
suit w ill be for overdrawn salarv. There

BOUGHT TO MANY
WILD ANIMALS
Norris and Rowe's Circus Agents
Carry out Instructions to
Literally
Many a tiniet laugh and many a joke
is being cracked just at present by vari
ous circus owners over the plight Nor
ris and Kowe found themselves in re
cently on account of their foreign agents
carrying out their orders too implicitly.
The circuis managers determined to in
crease thuir menagerie this year and to
wards that end endeavored to purchase
a number of wild animals from Bartel,
the New York dealer. Tbe latter had
only a few I leasts on hand however, so
Norris and Howe cable 1 their agents in
Europe, "Buy on sight every wild
animal you can get. Spare no expense.
We must increase our menagerie, ship
quick." That the agents got to work
quickly was evidenced by the frequent
consignments sent to Norris and Kowe.
After two lions, a tiger, three elephants,
a tapir, three llamas, two camels and
two Siberian bears were received, Nor
ris and Rowe thought they had
er.ongh and so cabled their agents, but
it was too i tie - another consignment
was on the way and could not be stopped.
It seemed to Norris and Rowe that every
ship coming to port eintained animals
of some sort for them until they were in
dispair. Twenty Japanese monkeys;
(our dromedaries; two more lions; four
more camels ; six wild cats ; two pumas ;
two catamounts ; an immense blood
hound ; a xebu ; ringtailed monkeys ;
red faced monkeys by the score ; Angora
goats ; dens of snakes and such like live
freight came in quick succession. Be
fore the consignments ceased Norris and
Rowe had animals enough on hand to
stock another menagerie. There was
nothing to do but pay tbe bills and look
cheerful. By adding their recent pur
chases to their already large collection,
they made large double menageries;
purchasing new tents ; dens ; lairs and
cages. It was a coat'y purchase all told
but Norris and Rowe tbink that it will
pay at that for the interest and approval
shown in their menagerie has crowded
their tents to capacity at every exhibi-
lion Wild auiiu.ils are getting very
rare and Norris and Rowe figure that
their collection will constantly increase
