At first, too, they grow up together, seeming to be animated by ' the same spirit, to have the same desires and antipathies, the same' purposes and ends. But after a while the genius of each begins to know Itself, and to follow its I -own. bent; they separate and diverge more and more; and those who, when young, vera" working In consort, stand alone In their old age. But If mountains do not shake hands, neither do they kick each other. Their human counterparts, unfortunately, are more pugnacious.

CONDOLENCES ARE DUE The Republicans of the First District are entitled to condolences for their defeat on Monday. , They had struggled heroically, but Ineffectually, in their convention to ' throw off their ancient Hermannlc night mare. Their best men, the flower of the party, had yielded to the oily strategist. But there was' another chance to be rid of him. Would the Democracy help them? The Democracy did. Young Mr. Reames, bright and unimpeachable, offered the golden opportunity to the ridden patriots to unhorse the old, map of the sea. But Mr. Hermann s has 'downed them all. He has beaten the Democratic and Republican par ties put together.. Tie haa even gained a signal victory over . Mr. Hitchcock and the President of the United States. -And how was It done?. Nobody wanted Mr. Hermann, He is the Incurable Infliction of his party. Divlnit --Piwldnc. -acthnr n concert with '"M r; Hitchcock, ... baa -chastised . the- Republican ' party of the First District." The Democratic party, as such, has lost, nothing. It only - suffers infinite regret at .the-futility of Its effort to relieve Mr. Hermann's party of Mr. . Hermann. It Is not -t Democratic funeral. The obsequies Are altogether Republican. -j So much for the party view. But the peo ple have other than partisan Interests. They -do -not- voluntarily- choose men of -the Her- . manp stampv Why, then, cannot the people retire, him from public life? The answer Is a lesson to be learned of all partisans, of every party. It is simply the want of an energetic civic conscience. Inertia is defined to be that physical prop erty of matter by which a body once in mo tion continues alwaya in motion till It is stopped, and a body once at rest remains al ways at rest till It. Is moved. Mr. Hermann Illustrates inertia of one kind ahd his party Of the other kind. He has been in political motion for a quarter of a century. And as to him, his party has that long been inertly at rest. That is the explanation of the election. The Republican party Is heavy, unwieldy, and unresponsive to even Its owri Intelli gence. Its great majority has stupefied its spirit and stultified its Intellect.' The' en ergy of Its young and ardent men Is 'ener vated by the Hermannlc Influence. They fear It, and hold out their hands to be man acled. Hermannism In only a phase of the A STRANGE DEFENSE. 'The First National Bank, In Its answer to the county's Butt, states that it sold the dis credited warrants which it held for 25 per cent of their face, without computing Inter est. The face of the warrants was 84,053.75 and the' bank received from W. F. White $1,913.41. The petition ol the bunk filed in June. 1901, asked that the county give In ex change for these warrants an equal amount of tax sale certificates, dollar for dollar, and thia was granted by a complaisant county board. White, as the bank's assignee, de manded and received certificates whose face vulue was more than $3,000 In excess of the face of the warrants. White was absolutely without any equity at against the county. He wan engaged In a speculation, pure and simple, and had the real facts of his contract with the bank been made known, not a single member of the county board would have "dared to sanction the"" prop'fiSiScr" exchange.""" To" carry the "job through It was essential that the terms of this contract should le kept from the board and from the public. It was also essential that the bank should appear as the real party In Interest and should file the petition. In order, therefore, to obtain the result desired, the bank appeared as the petitioner, asking the exchange on the ground of the alleged moral and equitable claim which It held against the county. On"the,'-sssump-tlon that the bank was In fact the holder and owner of the worthless warrants, us It declared, and In entire Ignorance, we must presuuieVof the fact that the bank hud al ready sold or contracted to sell them to White, the county board ordered the ex change. It now transpires, two years after the transaction, that White, who was absolutely without a Shadow of equity an against the county and who was engaged in a mere wildcat speculation,, where he had nothing to lose, and $6,000 or more to gain, was the real party In Interest. It' Is pertinent to ask whether the defense put forward by the bank has really Im proved its case. Although Donald McKay, the famous Oregon scout, died; on the Umatilla (Indian reservation a number of years ago, Tu-e-pum, his Indian wife, still survives him and bears up under the ravages of time and a long life of hardships and remarkble exper iences She still lives on the Warm Springs Indian reservation In this state, has a retentive memory and willingly, tells the Wonderful stories of her past life. ; Tu-e-pum, who is now known as "usan," was the daughter of a Warm Springs chief. Her Indian name signified "fluttering poplar," and the fact that she Still looks better than the average Indian woman, bears out the statement that she was once the handsomest maiden of the Warm Springs tribe. , . ' Her beauty, however, cost her her liberty In early days, lost for her her affianced Indian husband who was displaced by the famous half-breed scout and afterwards brought to her troubles which would even wrinkle a civilised brow. - ' . 1 While a mere girl drinking In the sunshine of the Warm Springs country and the love of the great chief, her father, and fTtat of the people of her tribe; and also the object of love of one of the rising young warriors of the tribe, a great misfortune befell her. A great horseback rider already she dashed about the plains In the vicinity of her home with all of the freedom she desired. While on one of these jaunts she was spied by the eagle eyes of a band of Piutes who were constantly lurking among the rocks of the mountains adjoining the place. Like the reptile with which the name, Piute, is synonymous, the warring .tribe pounced down upon "Fluttering Poplar" and led her away to the South Oregon country from which stronghold it took years for the gov ernment troops, the state volunteers and the combined efforts of the friendly tribe of Indians to dislodge them. The free and sunshiny life of Tu-e-pum was Immediately changed to that of a slave. The cruel Snakes made slaves of all of their captives and no exception was made of ,the daughter of a rival chief. In fact, it Is said her life was made more burdensome than that of ordinary slaves. It Is true that the Warm Springs Indians were not regarded as formidable an tagonists by the Piutes, for they were of a more humane and civilized nature than the other tribes, and also weak In numbers, but It may have been for this very reason that the Indian's contempt for weakness and the white man's ways led the Piutes to Inflict greater cruelties on the good-natured Warm Springs captive. Anyway, Tu-e-pum was given up as lost by her people and her Indian lover could not hope to go against the formidable Snakes alone. v . I uut rener my in anotner direction ior tne unnappy xu-e-pum. tine naa oeen in captivity three years and had served faithfully as a slave all of these years. Donald McKay, a half-breed, belonging to the Warm Springs tribe, had grown to manhood. The Snakes, the Modocs and other southern bloodthirsty tribes had aroused their hatred by their deeds of cruelty to his people, both on -the maternal and paternal side. His father was a white man and his mother a Warm Springs squaw. He was a Warrior and scout by nature and his services soon became in demand throughout the country. He knew every Inch of the great Oregon desert and the rocks and mountains were familiar landmarks to him by night as well as by day. The story of Tu-e-pum's capture and her servile life, together with the fact that he had remembered her face In their childhood, fired the daring young scout's blood to action and with the bravery that characterized his whole life, he attempted the rescue of the chiefs daughter from the Snakes, and he succeeded after a most thrilling ex perience that would make a story within Itself. The noma nee broadened by the mar riage of McKay and Tu-e-pum shortly after the rescue. But Instead of settling down to humdrum married life, the stories of the cruelties of the Piutes, as told by Tu-e-pum to her husband, fired his soul deep for revenge and aroused him to the most daring action. He set out with the fixed determination to' "bring all of the warlike tribes to subjection and made the Piutes the special object of his attention. The history of the closing Indian wars of this country tells how well he succeeded. In co-operation with General Crook he brought the war In the Steins Moun tain country to a clone. At the risk of the lives of himself and Tu-e-pum they went Into the camp of the enemy after the battle of Dunder and Blixen, and persuaded the Indians to come in and surrender, which took place In the early 70's at old Fort Warner In Lake County. Then he hied himself away to the lava beds, and after that bloody struggle had; driven the famous Captain Jack as a fugitive Into the rocks and caverns of the desert, it was Donald McKay, who, aided by a few of the Warm Springs warriors, entered ' a cavern In the rlmrocks, dragged the murderous chief from his hiding and delivered hlin to the representatives of the United States government. The triul and execution of Captain Jack Is still fresh history to the people of this country. His mission completed, the Piutes, Modocs and other warlike tribes brought to Justice and forced to live in peace on the government reservation, McKay then' started out to see the world. He took with him Tu-e-pum and their only child, a daughter now in her teens. They visited the Philadelphia Centennial at which place the female riders of the world were pitted together In a sweepstake horse race. Winnie McKay, the Oregon girl, won the race. Then they traveled In Europe and Queen Victoria sent for Tu-e-pum, and, having heurd her story, clasped her hand warmly. They were well received wherever they .went. ' - But the sad day In their 'lives came. While on their way from San Francisco to Portland, after their return from Europe; " their daughter, Minnie.' took sick and died. With her went the last hope of the noted scout. For( some unknown reason he left his wife and went to the Umatilla reservation, whee he" became official Interpreter for the government. Tu-e-pum returned to her people on the Warm Springs reservation. Donald McKay died away from his wife and she married a Warm Springs Indian by the name of Stacona, with whom she now llves'and who is Captain of the Indian police on the Warm Springs reservation. Chief Statistician for Population, ,Twelft b Census. '' '.,. - ? , At the last Federal census the , City of New York, under the act of consolidation, which became effective January 1, 1898, cov ered an era comprising, approximately, 208,218 acres, and had a population n June, 1800, of 8,437,202,, with an average density for the entire city of 18.4 persons to the acre, At the beginning of the nineteenth cen tury the estimated population of the 'area comprised within the present limits of the, city was, in round numbers, not quite 80,000, which in 20 years thereafter or In 1820, had grown to somewhat more then 150,000 In habitants. Twenty years later, or In 1840, the population was two and one half times what It was In 1820, and during the next 20- year period the population of 1840 was trebled, giving in I860 practically 1,175,000 Inhabitants, as against a little more than 890,000 In 1840. - '"' From 1860 the population of the, city In creased at a less rapid rate, but reached an aggregate in 1880 of not quite two million Inhabitants, or, .to be exact, 1,801,091 per sons. : This population, -when compared with that of 1900, shows a numerical Increase during the last 20 years of 1,665,501, which is more than twice the actual increase from 1860 to 1880, and is equivalent to substan tially four fifths of its entire population in 1880. In other words, during the last 20 years, the population of what is now Greater New York came within 400,000 of doubling Itself, and, taken as of the present writing. it Is fair to assume that it is. today twice what it was In 1880, or fully 3,800,000. " The population of New York City In 1900 was very unevenly divided among its tr oughs, and the average density of the pop ulation outside of Manhattan Borough was relatively small, showing that, with a rising rate of Increase and abundant room for very liberal additions to its present exceedingly gratifying numerical strength, there la every reason to expect a very material expansion in point of numbers within the bounds of Its existing area during the next 20 or 40 years, Manhattan, with 1,850,033 Inhab itants,' had an average of very nearly 133, perselis to the acre in 1900, as compared with an average density for Brooklyn, with ' 1,166,602 Inhabitants, of somewhat less than . 85 persons; for The Bronz,;wltli 200.607 in-, habitants, of less than eight persons, and for Queens' end Richmond, with 153,990 and 87,821 Inhabitants, , respectively, of not quite : two persona. Some ldeajf future possibilities is gained, by assumlngf or the entire city an average density equal to that shown in 1900 fo Manhattan Borough, ; namely, 132 persons tfV me acre. , , x ' Applying this density rate to the Total area of Greaterr New Tork, we have a pop ulation, in round numbers, of upward of 27.- 000,000, and furthermore, . unless a signs fall, It Is more than probable that this amount of population will be fully or very nearly attained before the close of the twentieth century. - Accepting this, then, as a not Impossible limit to the population that is likely to be cared for within the present territory of the City of New York, and bear- lng in mind that there will probably be very little diminution, if any. in the rate of In crease for at least a considerable period of years, it is not unreasonable either to hope for a population 20 years hence, or In 1920, of, say, 6,000,000, or to expect that the ten- million mark, will be reached within 46 years, or when . the Federal government makes its periodical accounting In 1940, If time shall prove the general accuracy or tnis prediction, then.

H.ivii v iuo tuuir try'e Inhabitants In 1790, Greater New York would show, after a lapse of only 150 years. a population of fully 10,000,000 souls, and with the entirely reasonable expectation, too, of haying -perhaps by the close of the present century three times that number, or 80,000,000 Inhabitants. The population of -Greater New Yor'k more than reached the million mark In 1850. It is now second only to Londonand before many more decades are passed is sure to be come the world's greatest metropolis in all that the word implies. THINGS 8EEN IN THE 8H0PS.

THE FEAR OF LAUGHTER. Men' who fear nothing else shrink from a Joke upon themselves. Soldiers who do not flinch before opposing guns dread to be made ridiculous. Woe to the na tional hero who makes one trifling mistake which may subject him to clever caricature! His meritorious, career Is henceforth shadowed by one colored Illustration. A comic paper will tip the scales of. Justice, snatch the victor's prize from his extended palm and rob the orator of hln choicest laurels. A brilliant satire will mar the fortunes of the greatest statesman; a laugh will turn the tide of a political convention. Indeed, the Joke is fast becoming mightier than the pen. The orator has learned Its value, and even the clergyman resorts to it when he desires to stir the flagging interest of hlB flock. It furnlFhes sufficient excuse for the impertinence of children And In its name the daily pupers deride the highest national dignitaries. What Is the meaning of Its steudy growth In power und what results may we predict from its humorous tyranny?
