The -pell of the new century will, tor the time being, kindle the ipirit and inHam, the minds of men. It is not often that an many million- of people have the ex perience of stepping from one century into another and ca-ting off the old clothea ot 100 yearn and donning the new, with the brightest promise- lie fore them t encourage their highest endeavor. A few days ago (inventor I'mgree, of Michigan, referred to a member of the supreme court liench ot that state as a "little cms." At once this ''little cues" proved himself entitled to the designation by using the power of his position to call the governor to account (or his remark. lie cited I'mgree to appear in court ami show cause why lie should not be punished for con tempt. The action of this "little cum" of a judge is on u par with the law in liermany which tends men and women to jail for expressing their opinions of a "little cuss' ' of a (ier tuaii emperor. The fact of the matter is, where men have tin- greatest liberty to free speech there one will tind the greatest respect and the most honest esteem for officials, high or low, who are deserving of the regard and con fidence of their fellows. If judge are to have the right to call men up before them for ilisres)ecttul remark made out of court of them or ot their actions, respect for the bench, ami tie-. wh sit upon it, will grow leas and less as this abuse becomes more flagrant. A dispatch from Washington to the V,,rtlai,il Oregonian, which that paer jiiihlished as u news item, states that the reported retirement ot Chairman Jones, and that Taggart. of Indiana, is likely to succeed him, is an evi dence of "returning common sense of the democratic party." This news gatherer euntillUee hi- rejections in the following language: "If the demo crat will get riil of Jones, Johnson and Htone as leaders, ami follow the suggestions of Cleveland rather than Hryan, it is believed by many politi cians here that they will stand u gaxl show of winning, uol only in the next congressional election, but in the next presidential campaign.' 'lin ts a sample of the Dregonian's politi cal news, which is never above the plane of the iduu of KMM , heap am nasty scribbler who is not able to dis tinguish between news and opinion. The leaders of the republican party eeem anxious to have the democratic party ao "organised" and "led" that it would be bound by the .-aim-environs and under similar control as that of the republican party. In other words, with the two parties just alike the privilege lakers would have im cause to be disturbed while the place hunt, r would be more certain oi n - j ward, and the plucking of the people could be continued intubated. carry parcel of that weight to Illinois or Indiana the express r, uipaniea charge on an average 1,M per parcel. The porcel-jiost charge would be '17 cents less per parcel, following the fit Bin postal rates, which yield an ample revenue to the tierman post office. To California and the I'acitic states the express charge on an eleven pound parcel from New York city runs all the way from f:i to f3.HU. The parcels-post rate on it would la, 12 cents only. Tlse World concludes that the American people are paying a vast tribute, reckoned by million-, on their Christmas present- alone to the ex press; colli), allies, which might lie saved tn them by the extension of their parcels jiost service on the lii.es already adopted by the British and Herman governments. And. inilis the ship subsidy business, the govern ment could do this for the people with out losing a dollar. The British and ernian experience makes it morally eertit i n that the Cuited .States parcels post would carry packages at Christina- and all the year urouud with an average charge to the sender of fiO cents where the express companies charge f.". It is in order for the Ore gon legislature to "petition" congress to give the ieople a parcels-ssl service and thus lone the express companies to mt an end to their thieving charges. BARLY HISTORY OF THIS BARTH. I'r. Thomas C. Cbauiberlin, piesi dm) oi the Chicago Academy of Sciences and head professor of geohigy at the University of Chicago, lectured r, I eiitly on "Kiretit studies on the Kariy iiistory of the Earth." About a century ago, says lr. Cham berlin, Laplace udvuiici-l the iiyjxi thesis that the solar system was de veloped from an enormous -piieroid of bof gas, whose dimensions were much greater than that of the present sys tem, lb' omitted, iiowever, an ox- jilanation oi this gaseous spheroid. It was simply assumed that it existed and d some rotation, fie conceived thousandth of the mass, could bo mi p posed to carry away onlv a small jmrt of the momentum of the entire spheroid ; bat, as a matter of fact, Jupiter now carries over HO per cent of the total momentum. This makes it seem incredible that the mas- of Jupiter could have been separated in thfs wav. A similar test, applied to other planets, gives like astonishing results. These and other lines of study of like import throw very serious doubt upon the tenability of the nebular hypothesis, if indeed they do not require Its abandonment. Another method oi investigation is the study of the nebulae that now exist in the heavens. Manv thousands of these have been observed, and their number is heme rajddly increased by modern photograjihic iiijiliances. If l.aplaee's hypothesis 'were trno, it would be sustained by many example among the nebulae, but such is nat the fact. The late I'rofessor Keeler showed bv means of improved photographic njipliances that the pre vailing tyjie, ipwially among the smaller form-, i- spiral nebulae, which leads to the belief that the normal mode of evolution is spiral and not annular. Those sjiiral nebulae, continues Dr. Chamherlin. are extrenielv attenuated, and, although more or less gnseous, they do not show evidence ul gathering directly into a simple spheroidal form controlled by simple gaseous laws. They lead to the belief that tbsjf are sojiarate centers of segregation from which planet bodies may arise. This view is warranted by the nodes or bunched portion- which the photo- ?raphs of the spiral ..obulac exhibit, f the planets were f Of Bad giadtiallv from attenuated matter, it is net prob able that the high temjieratures of the Laplace hypothesis would exist. The result would be that the early history of the earth may have been much morn prolonged and its prevailing tenicra tures tar more moderate than has been usually assumed. If this is true, the whole history of the earth would be entirely changed. The interpretation of its "continents, llateaus, mountains and volcanoes uiuit be wrought nut on new lines, and this is true alto ot Its life history in certain respects. The past duration of life upon the earth and its future continuance are among the jiroblems radically affected. All this, says Dr. Chamherlin, is theoretical, and must be regarded as such only, and can bo regarded as MMptad doctrine only after long trial anil radical criticism by specialists in the lines involved.

This, in turn, by farther acceleration, left behind an other ring, and, this process continu ing, the central jiortion was dually reached. the present dimensions of the sun. Laplace supposed that the rings thus separated broke at their weakest points and gathered into gaseous spheroids, some of which in the process of con traction also detached rings, which solidified .into satellites, while the spheroids from the primary rings formed planets. This theory,' known as Hie nebular hypothesis, was uni versally acceiited hv astronomers and geologists, and that constitute,! the standard hypothesis of the origin of the system for the last century.

On tin i- tlu-or. the computation ol the age of the earth unil the forecasts re Warding its future history have been ounded. The importance of the sub ject lias led to certain recent studies iinderiakeii w ith the idea of testing the trath'Wortliinesn of the hypothesis. line oi these was based on the modern uucirnif ii guaea wiiiid ver inu leri- allv differs from thai held at the time of Laplace. It is now maintained that tin- molecules of gases are Hying to and fro with great velocity, striking upon each other and rebounding, and as the attraction of celestial bodies can only control molecules moving away Irum them to a certain Hunted extent, It follows that if the velocities of the molecules exceed the limit of control they must dy awav and become lost. It follows that the smaller the mass of the body, the more limited its power of control ; hence the question was raised as to whether a white-hot earth could control the atmosphere and water, in the form of sleaui, by which it was surrounded, as the higher the temperature, the greater woufd be the velocity of the gas molecules. The result of these studies, while not wholly decisive, led to the Isdief that if the earth were converted into a gaseous form by an excessively high tcmjierature, its atmospheric' gases would escape. It further aipearet probable that the gaseous rings would not be condensed into spheroids, and even if this were accompli shed, they would not hold together. The laws of mechanics have also been brought into evidence. In this connection it is u well known principle that bodies formed as the solar system was supiMted to I liave been formed must at all times preserve the smiii total of momentum regardless of their form. Hv comparing the theoretical momen tum oi Laplece'a great spheroid ol gas with the sum total of momentum in the present system a great discrejianuv was found . The same is true regarding ii," rings. II was also found that the momentum of the planet was exces sively large in proportion to then masses. Jupiter contains lots than one thousandth of the mass of the spheroid from which it was supposed to have been separated, this spheroid, oi eoursu, including Jupiter, all tho inner planets and the sun.
