ASTORIA, OREGON:
. THURSDAY JULY 19, im
State Population.
Rhode Island is the state that
has the largest population in pro
portion to its urea, the extreme
smallness of the latter giving it an
exceptional density of habitation.
This state, with its 255 persons to
the square mile, being excepted,
Massachusetts then becomes very
remarkable with its 222 to the
squaremile. No other is near it;
but New Jersey is next conspicu
ous with its 152, and Connecticut
with 129. New Yorkss great
cities bnng'her fifth on the list,
with IOC persons, in spite of her
comparatively large area. Five
states only have population be
tween 100 and 50 to the square
mile, these being Pennsylvania
and Maryland, with about 95 each;
Ohio with 7S, Indiana and Illinois
with 55. At the other of the scale
of states is Oregon, with not quite
2 to the square mile, while ev en
California and Nebraska have not
quite G. The territories are all, of
course very thinly peopled in pro
portion to their areas, except the
District of Columbia, if indeed
this can be classified among them.
The District is naturally far more
densely populated than any of the
states, having 2,900 to the square
mile; but obviously it is to be
compared in this respect rather
with cities or counties containing
cities. These various densities
are based on the census of 1880;
in all cases they are now greater,
as the populations have since then
increased, while the areas have re
mained the same.
Tildcn BediriYas.
An "old and valued friend"' of S.
J. Tilden in a recently reported
interview, says: "I am satisfied
that Tilden views his public ca
reer as a matter so absolutely in
control of the public decision that
he will tacitly abide by the result
of a renomination. In regard to
the idea of excessive strain upon
his physical condition, he has been
fully prepared for any contingency
of this kind, not merely by his
rapid restoration to health and
vigor, but by his changed relation
to such a campaign, should it oc
cur. At one time, not long sinco,
even his immediate followers
abandoned the idea of his further
leadership and went to seek their
fortunes in other directions. Many
of them are now somewhat alarm
ed at the prospect of his renomi
nation, as they have set up for
themselves or joined adverse in
terests, but that Tilden will re
spond in the affirmative to a proper
demand by the party and the peo
ple there is not a particle of doubt.
It is also his positive conviction
that the time, opportunity and
necessity for his identity, with a
movement for the renomination of
a ticket which was elected by the
people, but denied by the tribun
al in" 1876, is how at hand. The
recent course of Hendricks has,
perhaps, given this idea more positive-
vitality than it seemed to
have a. few months ago."
Quarantine was invented in
Venice in the year 1157, all mer
chants and others from the Levant
and other eastern ports being
obliged to remain in the house of
St. Lazarus or the Lazaretto forty
days before they were allowed to
enter the city. Various southern
states copied the example of Ven
ice; the habit soon spread into
every European country, and was
introduced by the Venetians into
Syria and Egypt. At Gaza or
Beyroute-the-gutrdian who form
erly exercised, kept one deni
zen of the Lazaretto from commu
nication with another, was a Vene
tian, while the sick were attended
by a medico hailing from some
part of Italy, who looked at them
from a safe distance through assa-
fcetida smoke.
uuRGLAiuEs are so common m
T
Massachusetts that a Naugatuck
merchant has posted this on his
safety "We keep no money in this
saie. liusis lor tire only: our
money is up to the house; come
up. We hare four shotguns, two
rifles, three horse pistols, and one
revolver7alI loaded and ready
for -use, and warranted to
kill at ten rods. Time spent here
ki'ti me-wasted." Then follow the
figures of the combination, so that
it a burglar is determined to get
iahe;can,do.so without breaking
the lock. , '
A New departure in journalism
is said to have been originated by
the proprietors of the New Orleans
Democrat. They have fully
equipped a branch office on a
barge, had it towed up the Missis
sippi, and it is now floating down
the river, stopping at all points of
interest for the purpose of gather
ing information concerning the
country all along the river. The
barge is sixty feet long, with
twelve feet width of beam. Its
inner accommodations comprise
business, editorial and job offices,
composing and press rooms, sleep
ing apartments, aining-room,
kitchen and stable for horses used
in making land , trips back from
the river. It is practically a
fully equpped newspaper estab
lishment afloat.
The scene of the massacre of
General Custer and the seven com
panies under his command is to be
marked with a granite monument,
inscribed with the names of the
slain.
