This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the

Government
Is Man's Most Exalted WotL
Republican Government
Is the Supreme Type of Organization.
The United States Government
Is of All Governments the Best.
Therefore, the men who performed that
most difficult of human undertakings —
the establishment of law — and who per-
formed that task with a success without
parallel, — the men who constructed the
American Republic are leaders whose
works have proved their wisdom con-
summate
That Wisdom is concretely bodied forth in the
Mkssa<;ks and Papers <>k tub Prbsidbnt&
In these Papers our Chief Magistrates and the
statesmen, jurists, financiers, warriors who
composed their Cabinets discuss questions
perpetually before the voter, and define the
fundamental policies on which is based
this greatest human achievement. Their
Doctrines form our Governmental Gospel.
THE ENCYCLOPEDIC INDEX
CONTAINS

THE ENCYCLOPEDIC INDEX TO THE
MESSAGES AND PAPERS
OF THE PRESIDENTS
Serves a Double Purpose.
Pi««t:
Assuming that the reader desires to investigate a
specific subject, — the Index provides him with a suc-
cinct digest on that subject and underneath cites the
numbers of pages where Presidential references
thereto may be found. Thus, after reviewing the fun-
damental facts involved as presented by the digest, the
reader is aided in forming his own opinion on the ques-
tion by the arguments advanced by the Executives.
Second:
Assuming that the user is reading a Presidential
Message, — the Index provides him with data on every
question mentioned, and. by the page citations, enables
him to compare the views of various Chief Magistrates
on the same subject
Sea the aatalyii* of each Adminncratioa under the name of abe

Contemporary Cartoons
(J The collection of pictures appearing in the first ten

gathered together for the purpose of illustrating the his-
tory and progress of our country from every viewpoint.

development of this Nation. They appear in about
equal number in each volume, and in direct connection
with the text matter, therefore in chronological order.
<fl On the back of each of the historical illustration plates
there is found descriptive matter which adds value to
the illustrations and important historical data supple-
menting the messages themselves.

Arbitration
Appropriations.— Artie]* 1, section 7,
clause 1, of the Constitution provides tbat
"AU bills for raising revenue shall orig-
inate In tne Bouse of Representatives" ;
a similar privilege has been claimed by
the House In the case of appropriations of
public money, but In this case the claim
has not been Insisted on. Previous to 1865
the appropriation bills were. In the House,
considered by the Committee of Ways ana
Means, bat Id that year the Committee on
Appropriations was formed. By a rule of
the House and Senate, appropriation bills
must Include only items authorized by ex-
isting laws, and they cannot contain provis-
ions changing existing laws. But this rule
Is frequently disregarded. These bills must
be reported to the Committee of the Whole,
and may be reported at any time, taking
precedence of any other measures. This
rule puts vast power into the bands
of the chairman of the committee, and of
late years this power has been used to
choke discussion on the subject of the
tariff, by withholding the report of the ap-
propriation bills until the end of the ses-
sion and then Introducing tbem at a time
when, the most urgent duties of Congress
having been performed, tbat topic Is most
likely to come up for discussion. In the
House the yeas and nays on the passage
of these bills must be recorded. But bills
are frequently passed under a suspension
of this rule. In the Senate this Is not neces-
sary. The Appropriation Committee In that
body was organized In 1867. the Finance
Committee having previously had that mat-
ter In charge. The appropriation bills are
made np from estimates furnished by the
beads of the executive departments ; these
are usually much reduced In the House, and
these estimates are again usually raised
by the Senate (which body has less politi-
cal capital to make out of a claim of
economy.) : a compromise between the two
usually results In appropriations consid-
erably lower than the amount asked for by
the department officers. Tbls necessitates
the passage, at the beginning of every ses-
sion, of a bill to supply the deficiency of
the previous appropriations : tbls bill Is
known as the Deficiency BUI.
Besides the appropriations there are
"permanent annual appropriations," or
money expended by the treasury by virtue
of laws whose operation Involves the ex-
penditure without a specific appropriation
renewed each year, as Interest on the pub-
lic debt. (See Riders.)
Arbitration (International) and Dis-
artnaisant. — The movement In behalf of
universal peace between the nations baa
made great progress In recent years In the
Interest It baa created snd In the number
and character of Its advocates.
An International Peace Congress meets
annually. Its eighteenth annual meeting,
held at Stockholm In August, 1910. was at-
tended by about 700 representatives of
various countries. A "Palace of Peace"
has been erected at The Hague through the
munificence of Andrew Carnegie, and con-
tribution* to the adornment of tbls splen-
did building have come from all the prlnct-
Eil countries. More recently Mr. Carnegie
as donated a fund of $10,000,000. the
revenue of which la to be used In the In-
terests of peace.
A Permanent International Court of Ar-
bitration waa established at The Hague
by a treaty of Joly, 1889. wblch was signed
and later ratified by twenty-four powers.
Representation In the court by non-signa-
tory powers wai provided for by protocol
of June, 1907. The permanent court con-
data of men of recognized authority on In-
ternational law. The members on the part
of the United States are Senator Kllbu
Root, John Bassett Moore, Judge George
Gray and Hon. Oscar s. Straus. (See
Hague Peace Conference.) A number of
cases have been tried by this court — one of
the most important being the Atlantic Fish-
eries Dispute, which threatened the friend-
ly relations of Great Britain and Canada
with the United States, and In which a sat-
isfactory settlement was reached. (See
Great Britain. Treaties with. Here, under
the heading Arbitration, will be found the
essential principles of all International ar-
bitration treaties.)
The movement for disarmament, or the
limitation of armaments, has made little
material progress. It was opposed by Ger-
many at The Hague Conference In 1907.
Great Britain Is willing to Join the other
powers In a plan to reduce armaments,
provided they shall all agree to It, not
otherwise. The Balkan Crisis In 1908, and
the Italian-Turkish war have discouraged.
If not, for the time being, destroyed, all
hopes of any agreement between the powers
to disarm, or reduce armaments, In the
near future. The principle that to be pre-
pared for war Is the Biirest way to preserve
feace Is likely to be adhered to. The road
a universal peace Is evidently not yet In
sight. What progress the movement for dis-
armament had made In the United States
was completely nullified by the European
war of 1914, and millions were spent to In-
crease both army and navy. (See also Hague
Peuce Conference : Peace. International.)
Between August 7. 1913. and September
15. 19H. the United States, through Sec-
retary of State Bryan, signed pence treaties
with the following 26 nations: Argentina,
Bolivia. Brazil. Chile. China, Costa Rica.
Denmark, Dominican Republic. England.
France. Guatemala. Honduras. Italy,
Netherlands. Nicaragua, Norway. Panama.
Paraguay. Persia. Peru. Portugal. Salvador.
Spain, Swlterland. Uruguay. Venezuela.
The following text of the treaty with
The Netherlands will serve to show the
nature of all the "Bryan" treaties :
The President of the United States of
America and her Majesty the Queen of The
Netherlands, being desirous to strengthen
the bonds of amity that bind them together
and also to advance the cause of general
peace, have resolved to enter Into a treaty
for that purpose, and to that end have ap-
pointed as their plenipotentiaries :
The President of the United States, the
Honorable Willlnm Jennings Bryan, Secre-
tary of State ; and
Her Majesty the Queen of The Nether-
lands. Chevalier W. L. F. C. Van Rappnrd.
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Pleni-
potentiary of The Netherlands to the
United Stutes :
Who. after having communicated to each
other their respective full powers, found to
be In proper form, have agreed upon and
concluded the following articles :

squadron under Sir Edward Belcher, waa
the only party 10 accomplish the Northwest
Passage ; Collinaon, sailing at the same time,
rousted the northern shore of the conti-
nent, reuehlng, without knowing It, the
b'-ni1 of Franklin's death on King William
Land. From Ihe east between 1849 and
1*50. eight expeditions, lifted out by tin-
British Government, by private parties, and
by Lady Franklin, searched In vain for
1 ranklin and his men.
The work of American explorers begins
with the Grlnnell expedition under De
Haven and Kane. In 1850. Information
obtained by Dr. Rae, In a land Journey In
1854. had already made evident the loss
of Franklin and bis men : but Lady Frank-
lin determined to make one last effort, sent
oat. In 1859, the Little tux, under the com-
mand of McCllntock, who obtained a record
(the only one found) stating the abandon-
ment of tbe ships and Franklin's death.
But little hax been done in this Held since
1855. although in 1898 99, Sverdrup (Nor-
wegian) visited Jones Sound, traced tbe
west coast of Grlnnell Land, and discov-
ered several Islands. Two American ex-
peditions, (hose of Kane In 1853. and Hayes
In 18«0, undertaken with the object of ex-
ploring Smith Sound, discovered Kane Sea
aod Kennedy Channel, and reached 80° 35'
and 81* 35f respectively. In 1870, C. F.
HalL an American, who had already spent
several years among the Hudson Bay
Eskimos, searching for traces of the Frank-
lin expedition, reached 82° 11' In the sea
north of Kennedy Channel : a record which
was surpassed nvc yearn later by the Brit-
ish expendition under Nares, with 83° 20'.
In 1881 an American expedition under
Dear. A. W. Greely was sent to establish
one of the International CIrcumpolar Sta-
tion! at Lady Franklin Bay. It secured
valuable scientific data, made extensive ex-
plorations, and a party under Lieutenant
Lockwood reached the farthest north up to
that time attained. 83° 24'. In tbe fall of
1SS3 the party was forced to retreat to
Cape Sabine, where they were rescued the
next spring, after much suffering and the
loss of several Uvea.
In the Interior of Greenland. Important
explorations have been made hv Norden-
skjold in 1870 and 1883: Nans.n In 1888;
and especially bv the American exnedltlons
command. -d by Lieut. Peary In 18SU. 1891-
92. and 1893-95. In these expeditions, and
In a longer and still more successful visit
In 1898-1902 Peary determined the north-
ern limits of Greenland, besides exploring
Grlnnell Land and reaching 84° 17".
July 17. 1905. I.lent. Peary sailed In the
new ship Rooierelt on another expedition.
intending to push hla ship as far north as
possible through Smith Sound and make a
da«h for the Pole by sledges.
This trip proving fruitless, a second voy-
age wae made by tbe Rootevelt, leaving
New York, July 6, 1908. and arriving at
Etah. Greenland, Aug. 18. Proceeding
thence overland. Lieut. Peary arrived at
90° N. Lat. (tbe north pole* April G. 1909.
The history of hoaxes and tinman gulli-
bility contains no more amusing episode
than the claims of Dr. Frederick A. Cook.
of Brooklyn. N. Y., that be reached the
north pole, April 21st. 1908, one year be-
fore Peary. The denunciations of Peary,
who waa being cheated of his just reward.
merely heightened popular Interest. Very
few were sufficiently conversant with con-
ditions In fhe arctic zone to pass Intelli-
gent Judgment, but sympathy went mil to
the haggard doctor, when he related Ids
odyasey of days and nights of suffering
and danger.
Spitsbergen and the seas north of Asia
have been the Held of many expeditions.
The exploration of Spitsbergen, discovered
by Barents (1596i. was carried on by Nor-
densklbld In 18U3-<i4, and 1872 ; tbe Islands
served as a starting point for Andre's Ill-
fated balloon (ISilii, and were visited by
Wellman (American). 1894. Franz Josef
Lan— discovered by the Austrian expedi-
tion under Weyprecbt and Payer In 1873,
was chosen as a base for the Harmsworth-
Jacksun expedition In 1893. and the two
expeditions sent out by William Zlegler of
Brooklyn, under Baldwin (1901), and
Flula (19031. neither of which succeeded
In reaching Its objective point, tbe north
pole, lite Duke of Abruzzl's expedition from
the same quarter In 1902 was more suc-
cessful, reaching 86° 34'. the farthest north
ever attained. A French expedition led
by tbe Duke of Orleans was. at the begin-
ning of 1900, somewhere north of Franz
Josef Land. In 1893, Frltblof Nansen, a
Norwegian, entering the ice north of Asia,
allowed himself to be carried by tbe cur-
rents until, leaving his ship, be reached
by a aleilge Journey Sli' 14'.
The Northeast Passage, long an object
of English and Kusslan exploration, was ac-
complished by Nordenskjold In 1878-79. The
westernmost of the Asiatic Islands were dis-
covered by the American expedition under
G. W. DeLong In the Jeanne! tr, which, set-
ting out from San Francisco In 1879. was
crushed In the Ice. DeLong and the larger
part of the crew perishing during the re-
treat. Late In 1905 the Amundsen expedi-
tion returned with valuable discoveries con-
cerning the position of the North Magnetic
Pole.
Argentina. — A republic occupying the
greater portion of the southern part of tbe
South American Continent, and extending
from Bolivia to Cape Horn, a total distance
of nearly 2.300 miles : its greatest breadth
is about 930 miles. It Is bounded on the
north by Bolivia, on the northeast by Para-
guay. Brazil, and Uruguay, on tbe south-
east and south by the Atlantic, and on the
west by Chile, from which Republic It Is
separated by the Cordillera de los Andes.
Pliyiral Feature*. — On the west the
mountainous Cordilleras, with their pla-
teaus, extend from the northern to the
Southern boundaries: on the east are the
great plains (known as EI Gran Charoi
and the tr<ele>s pampas, which together
constitute Ln Plata, extending from the Bo-
livian boundary In the north to the Rio Ne-
gro : and south of the Rio Negro are the
vast plains of Patagonia. Argentina thus
contains a succession of level plains, broken
only In Cordoba by the San Luis and Cor-
doba ranges, and In tbe northwestern
states by the eastern spurs of the Andes.

Arkansas la first among the states In the
production of two minerals — bauxite and
novacullte. the former being the ore of
aluminum and the latter the source of the
larger part of the oilstones produced In the
United States. The principal mineral prod-
uct of Arkansas, however, Is coal, (be an-
nual value of which constituted over fifty
per cent of the state's total. The total
value of all the mineral products of
Arkansas in 1013 was $6,780,760, accord-
ing to the United States Geological Survey,
compared with $6,258,726 In 1912. The
coal production waa 2,234.107 short tons,
rained at $3,923,701, in 1913, against 2.100,-
819 tons, valued at $3,582,789, In 1912.
The coala of Arkansas are generally of high
grade, particularly In the eastern part of the
coal field, where they approach anthracite
In character. The semlanthraclte of Arkan-
sas Is an excellent domestic fuel and reaches
markets as far north as Kansas City.
Banxlte, from which aluminum Is derived,
is second among the mineral products of
the state. It is mined near Benton, in
Saline County, and in Pulaski County.
In 1913 the stone quarries of Arkansas
fnrnlshed products valued at $525,050, ex-
clusive of novaculite and of limestone
burned for lime. In 1912 the quarry prod-
acts were valued at $513,844. The clay-
working industries, while not highly de-
veloped; take third place and in 1913 pro-
duced an output valine! at $529,624. an In-
crease of $67,019 over 1912. The sand and
gravel pits yielded $320,639 in 1913 and
$393,639 In 1912. The only metalliferous
[products of Arkansas besides bauxite are
pad, zinc, and raanganlferous ores. Other
commercial mineral products are fuller's
earth, gems and precious stones, lime, min-
eral waters, natural gas, phosphate rock,
and slate.

side of the people against the dishonest
party managers, saying at the close: "We
stand at Armageddon and we battle for the
Lord." The expression is not a quotation,
but is based on several passages In the
book of Revelations, Chapter XVI, notably
In the 16tb and following verses. The
word Armageddon Is used in an apocalyptic
sense as a synonym for the battlefield —
whether above the earth or In the under-
world— on whkb the final victory over evil
waa to be won by the forces of righteous-
ness. It was here that the kings of the
lower world were to be gathered by the
Dragon, the Beast, and the False Prophet
to make war on the Lord. Revelations xvll,
14, reads : "These shall make war with the
Lamb and the Lamb shall overcome them ;
for he Is I.ord of Ix>rds and King of Kings
and they that are with him are called and
chosen and faithful." Specifically Armaged-
don Is a corruption of the Hebrew words
Har Mageddon, signifying the mountains of
Meglddo. The reference in the passage in
Revelations Is probably to Meglddo. but
some authorities refer It to the plain of
Ksdraelon. or Jezreel, In Galilee and Sa-
maria, famous as a battlefield from the
time Gideon overcame the Mldlanltes to
Napoleon's victory over the Turks.

Army
Army. — The earliest American military
establishment consisted of two parts, the
continental army, organized by the Conti-
nental Congrrss June 15, 1775. and the mi-
litia {q. v.) organized by the States, aver-
aging between the years 1775 and 1781
about 60,000 men, though often not more
than half that number were in active ser-
Tice. The War Department (o. v.) was es-
tablished by act or Congress Aug. 7. 1789.
Nov. 5. 1783. the army was disbanded and
1.000 men retained until the peace establish-
ment could be organized. Though tempo-
rarily increased by Indian wars and
troubles with France, the federal forces
numbered only from 3.000 to 5.000 men at
the outbreak of the War of 1812. During
that war the number of regular troops was
more than 85.000, and 470.000 mllltla were
enlisted. Up to the time of the Mexican
War the army averaged 9.000 men. During
that war the regular troops enrolled num-
bered 30,000 and the volunteers 74,000.
With the return of peace the regular forces
were reduced to 10,000. and later Increased
to 12.000.
During the first year of the Civil War the
regular army was Increased to 35.000 by
the addition of eleven regiments, viz. : One
of cavalry. 1.189 officers and men ; one of
artillery, twelve batteries, six pieces each,
1.909 men: nine of Infantry, consisting of
three battalions of eight companies each,
22.008 officers and men : but the number of
mllltla and volunteers was very much
larger. President Lincoln's first call. Issued
April 15. 1861. was for 75,000 men for
three months' service (3214). Later enlist-
ments were mostly for three years. At tbs
beginning of 1862 the number of volunteers
In the army was 550.000. and during the
next three years It was 900.000. At the
close of the war the Federal army num-
bered 1.000.000 The total number of en-
listments was 2.213.363 (41561.
In 1867 the "peace establishment" of the
United States army was fixed at 54.641
men. It was then reduced by successive
enactments to 25.000 enlisted men In 1875.
At the beginning of 1898 the peace estab-
lishment of the army consisted of ten regi-
ments cavalry, 8.410 : five regiments artil-
lery. 2.900 : twenty-five regiments Infantry,
1.1.525; one engineer battalion, 216: total,
25.051. This did not Include brigade and
staff officers. At the outbreak of tbe Span-
ish-American War two additional regiments
of artillery were added to the regular
forrps and the line of the army wan re-
organized on the basis of two battalions of
four companies each to the regiment, and
two skeleton companies. In case of a
declaration of war these skeleton companies
were to be manned, and. with two other
companies for which authority to raise was
granted, were to form the third battalion
in each infantry regiment.
Voder the provisions of a law approved
March 2. 1899, the regular army establish-
ment was fixed at about 27.700 officers and
men. To meet the exigencies of the ser-

Bill Of Bights.— The earliest colonial or
State declaration of American rights after
the "Body of Laws" of Massachusetts, in
1640, was that which accompanied the Vir-
ginia constitution of 1776. It was based
upon the English BUI of Rights of 168".
The latter was an Instrument signed by
William and Mary when accepting the
crown of England from the Convention of
Parliament. It asserted the right of sub-
jects to petition, the right of Parliament
to freedom of debate, the right of electors
to choose representatives freely, and other
privileges. This BUI of Rights, which con-
tained the fundamental principles of po-
litical liberty, was not extended to the
colonies. Other State constitutions In de-
fining the rights of the citizen as against
the scope of the State largely followed
the phraseology of this famous Instrument.
The National Constitution was harshly
criticised on account of the omission of
some such guaranty of personal rights,
and might have failed of ratification had
not the Federalists promised to incor-
porate such a set of statements. The first
ten amendments stand as the partial ful-
fil laient of their promises. (See also
Amendments.)

Biological Survey, Bureau of, Agricul-
ture Department. —A bureau of the De-
partment of Agriculture which studies the
geographic distribution of animals and
plants, makes maps of life zones, and studies
the food and habits of birds and mammals.
It enforces the laws regulating the Impor-
tation of foreign birds and animals. It
looks after the protection of game by con-
trol of Interstate trade; also the protection
of migratory and. insectivorous game birds.
An Important fact established by this
bureau Is that the dreaded bubonic plague
Is a disease of rats and that It Is trans-
mitted to human beings chiefly through the
agency of fleas which Infest rats and then
convey the poisonous germ to human beings.
A careful study of birds In relation to
fruit raising engaged the attention of this
bureau for severoi years. The result was
a report Informing oniiardlsts how to dis-
criminate between friends and foes — that
they might encourage the one class and
[revent or lessen losses from the other.
Ilrd reservations (sanctuaries where flocks
may breed safely or take refuge during the
migration) have oIho been set aside upon
recommendation of this bureau.

Board of Trade and Plantations.— in
1660 Charles II. established two separate
councils, one for trade and the other for
foreign plantations. For a time these were
united (from 1672 to 16751. The charter
or Rhode Island and Providence l'lantstlons
was secured from Charles II., July 8, 1663,
by John Clarke, who acted as agent for the
Colony. This charter continued In force
180 years. In 1605 the Hoard of Trade
and Plantations was established and given
rharge of the English Colonies In America.
In 1768 a Secretary of State for America
waa established, and the duties of the board

Boar War. — The conflict between Great
Britain arid the South African republics
Of Transvaal and the Orange Free Slate.
Fallowing the organisation of the Trans-
T"l Republic the British claimed suzer-
atoly oTer the country, and sent a gover-
nor led s military force to support their
cfilmi |n 1870. The Boers, who were de-
scendants of Dutch colonists, offered mili-
tary resistance and defeated the British
troops In several engagements, notably at
Lalng's Neck, Jan. 28, 1881, and at Majuba
Hill. Feb. 27, 1881. In March, the Inde-
pendence of the Republic was acknowl-
edged by a British treaty, and the Boers
acknowledged the suzerainty of the Queen
of England.
During the following years British
settlers, or ultlanders, protested to, tbelr
home government that they were harshly
treated by the locnl authorities. British
military forces were Increased and the in-
censed Boers demanded the Instant with-
drawal of all troops. ' The Orange Free
State supported the Transvaal In opposing
British authority.
In October, 1800, 10,000 British forces
were concentrated nt Ladysmlth, In Natal,
at the Junction of two railroads, one run-
ning Into the Transvuul, the other Into the
Orunge Free State. Here they were be-
sieged by the Boers until they were re-
lieved by the British General Buller. Feb.
28. 1000. Other British forces were be-
sieged in Klniberley. In Cape Colony, from
Oct. 20. 1800 to Feb. 15, 1000, and In
Mnfeklng, Bechuanaland, from October,
1800, to May 16, num. Attempts to re-
lieve these positions occasioned the prin-
cipal buttles of the war. In 1800 General
Sir Redvers Buller had 54.000 troops In
the country. He made three futile at-
tempts to relieve Ladysmlth. and was
severely defeated while attempting to force
the Tugela river near Colcnso, Dec. 15,
1800. In January, 1000. Lord Roberts was
ordered to South Africa with the whole
Seventh Army Division, of 100,000 men,
with Lord Kitchener as chief of staff.
Cuder his direction <Scn. French, with 5.<M)0
British, relieved Klmherley. The Boet
general Cronje. with 5.000 men. surren-
dered at Paurdeebcrg. In the bed of the
Mo,], I, i- River. Feb. 27, 1000. Bloemfonteln
surrendered to I-ord Roberts March 15,
Presidents Steyn and Kruger escaping to
the north. General DeWet continued to
harass the British, and cut off the water
supply of Bloemfonteln. The Boer gen-
eral, Joubert. died March 27th and was
succeeded by Louis Roths. June 5th. Rob-
erts occupied Pretoria. By establishing
a system of block signal houses throughout
the country and driving the Inhabitants
Into concentration camps the British finally
succeeded hi forcing the Boers to sur-
render. Peace was signed May .11. 1002.
American Interest In the Boer War Is
shown by the fact that the Senate vote on
Mr. Petllgrew's resolution of sympathy
with the Boers was 20 In favor of to 20
against. The South African republics
officially appealed to the I'nlted States to
Intervene, with a view to tbe cessation of
hostilities early In 1000. President Mc
Klnley, however, refused to Interfere.
The Boer force during the war was
about 75.000. Tbe total British force sent
to South Africa from Aug. I, 1R0O. to May
31. 1002. was 3011.1100, The cost of tbe
war to England was more than a billion
dollars and 20.000 men. (See Illustration

Boy SCOUtt Of America. The Boy Scout
movement can be traced back to widely
separated aourres where constructive Ideas
came to hoy workers and wore tested with
varying degreea of aueceaa. In America
•here were a number of originator* of
methods, plans tnd principles that have
proved efTc. lire In tlreat Britain. I
Mr Itohert S S Undon-1'owell became
active In organisation work based largely
oil tbs Idea* ntiii thode of Amei
worker" lie did this so BUCCCaefuIIJ that
the enrollment of Ilrltlah Boy Scout* soon
grew Into the hundred thousands, with Hie
emphasis, not 00 the mllllary note, b
peace virtues and learning practical trades.
Then the movement spread CO Orrnanjr.
France. Itnly. Australia and Sew Zealand,
msda and the lulled States: to South
American republics: in short, almost the
world over, since It la already established
In tn. countries. KwiMimv ii
baa shown adaptation to new fields and
nntlonolltlce.
In Cermany the boys hav* engaged In
the work with such eufhuslnsni snd In such
nnmbers that the I'msslsn and Havarlan
authorities are giving the movement finan-
cial aid. But 11 haa been left to the United
Slatea to ahow what the svsfem of scouting
ran accomplish, when It returns tn the lands
In which the larger number of Its working
Ideaa and prlnelplea originated. While the
number of the Boy Scouts enrolled through-
oiii the world Is eaiiraated as not leaa than
two million, one-sixth of the whole number
are In the United Blaise, The emphasis
nn,l wleniri of the movement belong here also
to the highest plana — that of sfflelenl citi-
zenship, aervlee anil ehararier-huildlng.

ntervals. 80 that the investment may In-
safe and remunerative. In the beginning
the home-bulldlng or home-lm.vlnc fund

of the members (shareholders!. At present
prepaid, full-paid and permanent shares are
sold by the association, payable In full or
In large part on subscription. Speclnl de-
posits In any amount are received. Shares
partly paid are brought to their par value
by adding to payments made dividends ap-
portioned thereto. Special deposits are gen-
erally withdrawable by the depositor at.
pleasure. Installment shares and prepaid
shares remain in until they reach their par
value. Kull-pald shares remain in a cer-
tain fixed time. Permanent shares remain
In until the dissolution of the corporation.
These associations came Into existence In
Kngland nearly 100 years ago, but were not
made the subjeet of legislative enactment
until 1836. The first association estab-
lished In the I.'nlted States was the Oxford
Provident Building Association, of Frank-

Cotton Crop.— The cotton plant Is Indig-
enous to tropical I ml! Col
ton cloth Is mentioned by llerodotua, was
known In Arabia In the time of Mahomet,
and was Introduced Into RuroM by his
followers, it was used by the Chinese m
tb» thirteenth century, nnd was grown and
woven In Jtpsln in the tenth century. Col-
tan fabrics were worn by tbe American
Indian-, when ilrst visited by Columbus
The nr*t cotton fsefory In America was
set np at Ka<t Brldgewiter. Mass.. In 1787.
Mm Bral effort to cultivate cotton In the
1'nlted stales was made In Virginia In
1031. Later, experiments In cotton culture
were made III Maryland. Delaware. I'ennsyl
vsnla and New Jersey, hut conditions of
climate In those states were found nnsult-
able. It was Introduced Into South Caro-
lina In 17.13 and Into Georgia In 17.14. It
was being grown In Louisiana In 1741.
Cotton was not grown as a staple crop,
however, until 1.70, at which time ship-
ments of American cotton to Liverpool
were recorded ns : "Ten bales from
Chariot on. three bales from New York,
four Imp* from Virginia, anrl three barrels
from North Carolina." After the Revolu-
tionary tVar the cultivation of cotton spread
mora rapidly. The crop »f 1790 produced
3.138 equivalent bales of 500 pounds each.
378 of which were exported. 8ca Island
cotton was tlrst grown In
Cotton Is grown In many localities within
a ■lobe-enclrellng belt about five thou
miles wide, but the totnl nreo devoted to
Its cultivation constitutes only a small part
of tlm entire laud surface within this belt.

Sympathy with the French revolutionist*

tertaining thes.. sentiments. Coder the lead-

The production of sold lius been steadily
Increasing In recent years by reuson not

proved scientific methods of mining ami of
extracting the pure metal from the ore.
The estimated value of all the gold In tho
world In 1848 was $2,500.(100.000. In 187.">
the amount had probably doubled. There
nns a large Increase In the world's pro-
duction of gold lii 1807. the output for
that year being twice that of 1800. More
than 00 per cent of the supply was fur-
nished by seven countries, viz., the United
States, the Transvaal, Australia, Kussla
(Siberia), British Indlu, Canada, and Mex-
ico.
The world's output Is worth about a
million and u quarter dollars a day. The
Bank of iCngland under n Inw passed In
1866 la bound to buy all the gold offered
to It at the rate of $10.05 per ounce of

given In the President's Seventh Annual
wai(e (page 1371). European nations
found no difficulty In settling tbeir claims
Slinst France soon after the peace of
15 ; bat the claims of the United States
were treated with supercilious silence. A
treaty was made with France In settle-
ment of these In 1831, by which France
obligated herself to par S5.000.000 In six
annual Instalments, beclnnlng Feo. 2. 1833.
A draft was presented but payment wna
refused, on the plea that no appropria-
tion had been made. President Jackson,
m a message to Congress In December,
1834, advised Congress to direct that
rrench Tessels to the value of the amount
be captured. The French government
threatened war should the President not
apologize. Great Britain Interposed and
■dTlsed France to settle quickly, which
■he did. The moral effect of the course
taken by President Jackson was very
rrent In demonstrating that the time had
Knied when the United States could be
raited with Impunity.

In Ihv varly Malory of ICngland and of the
American colonies tbo legislative bodies had
Judicial powers, and the English Parlia-
ment I* still known a* the High Court of
Parliament, and the Legislature of Mason-
it* a* the General Court. Most of
these power*, bowever, were soon trans
(erred to more compact bodies having *i
ly Judicial functlona. Almost the
only Judicial function retained by legisla-
tive bodies la tn» power of Impeachi
of high officers Tbe first step toward ft
Federal Judiciary were the commissions
which decided land case* between tie-
states. Comnlaalonera of appeal decided
cases, and lu 17*1. under the Article*
of Confederation, these were erected late I
court. The Const Initios "f 17S7 provided
fnr a Supreme Court and such inferior
courts aa Congress might i ■ rhe

conns were established. In 1 81)1 the eh
cult court of appeal* was aild'd to ihu
syatrm. The Court of Claim*. Ihe Court of
Private Land Claim*, and a system of Tcr-
la I courts have also been established by

clent conloarrylng railroads, audi a* the
Norfolk and Wenern. the Cheaapeake and

neld and Olilo, Virginia steam coal of
lene quality ran be delivered at low cost
nt t'e Atlantic arabonrd port* of Norfolk.
Newport New*, and Charleston, where It
can be delivered to re»*ei quickly, efficiently,
and, at low coat. It Is believed that In
13-ty large quantities of this coal enn be
■old In ad iiru at lower cost than
Australian or Welsh coal. If this prove*
to be the ease, the vessel* c:rrylng coal
from t'e Vnliei! States can return with
nitrates from Chile, copper from American-
owned mine* and smelter* In chile an.]
tin ore from American-owned mine* In Bo-
livia, and Iron ore from Amrri<nn-nwB*d
cine* In C He. Tb» deT*lopm*nt of coal
exports would cause reductions In return
l< (a factor whlcb goes for toward

Metals and Mining —
Metallic Elements and Minimi. — Chemi-
cally considered, a metal Is an element
which has the power to replace the hydro-
gen of acids and form salt ; in
other words. It forms a base by com-
bining with a hydroxy] group or groups.
It Is usually hard, heavy, lustrous, mal-
leable, ductile, tenacious, and a good con-
ductor of heat and electricity. Only six or
seven metals were known to ancient alchem-
ists, whereas under the modern definition
quoted above some forty-five elements are
Eroperly called metals. No sharp line can
1 drawn between metals and non-metals,
however, since some of the elements belong
to both classes. Though weight la one of
the most common properties of metals, a
few such as milium, sodium, potassium,
etc., are lighter than water. Metals are
distinguished from minerals In that the lat-
ter are either the uncomblned elements
In a native state, or compounds of these
elements formed In accordance with chemi-
cal laws, and have, therefore, a definite
chemical composition and molecular struc-
ture. Rocks are commonly referred to as
minerals, and the process of extraction
from the earth, mining.
The principal metals mined in the United
8tates are. in the order of their Importance :
Iron, gold, copper, silver, lead, ferroman-
ganese, zinc, aluminum, quicksilver, anti-
mony, molybdenum, tungsten, ferromolyb-
denam, ferrotungsten, platinum. The prin-
cipal minerals in the order of their Im-
portance arc : Coal, bituminous and cannel,
clay products, coal (anthracite), petroleum,
Iron ore, natural gas, cement (Portland

mllea south of the Bio Grande. Fire bandits

Tbe State Department May 18, lsaned
orders to American consuls and vice-consuls
at Chihuahua, Juarez, Nogales, Durango,
Aguascallentes and Monterey to report to
F.I I'aso for a conference with Gen. FunBton.
Tbe consuls and vice-consuls Included In the

Thomas D. Edwards, at Juarez: Frederick
Simplch, at Nogales ; Homer C. Coen. vice-
consul at Durango; Gaston Schmuts, at
Aguascallentes ; and Philip C, Hanna, con-
sul-general at Monterey.
After the conference, one of the consnla
was to proceed to Washington to confer
wltb tbe officials of the State Department-
Official figures of dead, wounded and miss-
ing, both soldier and civilian, that marked
the progress of the American expedition In
Mexico from the time of the Columbus,
N. M., raid, showed the following total cas-
ualties to May 20:
Killed— United States soldiers, 30; civil-
ians,. 24; Mexican soldiers, 301.

other Vllllsta chief, near Cruces. May 28,
by United States troops. One American sol-
dier was killed and two were wounded.
The Cnrranza de facto government. May
81, delivered to the United States govern-
ment a new and sharp note, bristling with
what amounted to charges of bad faith
against President Wilson and insisting upon
the Immediate withdrawal of the American
military forces from Mexican soil, or a frank
declaration by the American government In
explanation of its purpose in retaining them
there "Idle and Inactive."
The note did not fix any time limit within
which the American forces should be with-
drawn, but asserted that should the Ameri-
can government refuse to comply with these
requirements the de facto government might
conclude that the expedition was being
maintained on Mexican soil for occult rea-
sons and as a precautionary measure la
anticipation of a clash wltb Mexico.
The Mexican situation became Increasingly
strained during June. Several border raids
followed by punitive expeditions, the Mexi-
can threat of attack If United States troops
moved south, and the bnttle at Cnrrlzal re-
sulted In mobilization of state mllltla and
a forcible answer to Carranza's manifesto
of May 22.
On June 11 Mexicans raided an American
ranch near Laredo, Tex., with the result
that 1600 American regulars were drawn
from the Englneera Corps of the Coast Ar-
tillery to reinforce the border defenses. One
of the bandits It was said wore a uniform
bearing the Insignia of a Carranza lieu-
tenant colonel.
Mexicans attacked the border patrol at
San Ignaclo June IB with the result that
three American soldiers were killed and
six wounded, eight Mexicans were reported
killed, a number wounded and several cap-
tured. A third punitive expedition followed
the bandits Into Mexico. A fourth punitive
chase crossed the line June 18 and dispersed
bandits who had been discovered near San
Benito, Tex. Tbe raids resulted In Presi-
dent Wilson's summons to all state mllltla
not already on tbe field to mobilise. Six-
teen warships were sent to watch Mexican
ports.
General Trevlno on June 15 advised Gen-
eral Pershing that any movement of Ameri-
can troops in Mexico to tbe soutb, east, or
west would be considered a hostile act and
a signal to commence warfare.
On June 20 the President's reply to Car-
ranza's demand of May 22 for tbe with-
drawal of our troops was Issued. The note
refused the demand and declared the In-
tention of tbe United States to keep troops
in Mexico to protect our citizens In that
country and on the border until the de facto
Government showed that it waa willing and
able to protect them.
A battle took place June 21 at Carrlial
between two troops of American cavalry
and seven or eight hundred of the Car-
ranzlsta forces. Tbe Americans, eighty-four
in number, were overwhelmed and defeated ;
thirteen were killed, twenty-three taken
prisoners, fifteen reported missing. Respon-
sibility for the attack was assumed by Car-
ranza In a statement sent to the American
government. The Government replied with
a sharp note June 24 demanding the re-
lease of prisoners taken in the encounter.
The prisoners were returned June 28.
Modesto C. Rolland. former Mexican Con-
sul General in New York, left June 24. for
El Pnso to confer with Dr. Alt. editor of a
Mexico City weekly, and Luis Manuel Rotas,
director of the Blblloleca Naclonal, In Mex-
ico City, representing Mexico and David 8tarr
Jordan, Frank P. Walsh, and William Jen-
nings Bryan, representing the United
States. Toe commission was unofficial and
f'lanned to work for a peaceful understand-
ing between the two countries.
Pablo Lopez, Villa's chief lieutenant in
tbe Columbus raid was shot June 6 at Chi-
huahua City. Four Columbus raiders were
hanged at Demlng N. M., on June 0. two on
June 30. One raider was sentenced to life
Imprisonment.
Anti-American demonstrations in north-
ern Mexico throughout June indicated a
growing restlessness over the continued pres-
ence of American troops. On June 7 and 8
mobs attacked the American consulate, the
Foreign Club and American residences In
Chihuahua City. The consulate wbb burned.
Three mob leaders were reported killed by
an American In defense of bis bouse.
Great Britain and tbe Latin countries of
South America had shown concern over the
Mexican situation, and offered friendly aid
to prevent armed Intervention.
Joint Commission. — A Joint committee
was appointed during August to settle the
differences between the United States and
Mexico. Toward the end of the month
13.000 National Guardsmen were ordered
home from the border.
