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 
publisher  to  a  library  and  finally  to  you. 

Usage  guidelines 

Google  is  proud  to  partner  with  libraries  to  digitize  public  domain  materials  and  make  them  widely  accessible.  Public  domain  books  belong  to  the 
public  and  we  are  merely  their  custodians.  Nevertheless,  this  work  is  expensive,  so  in  order  to  keep  providing  this  resource,  we  have  taken  steps  to 
prevent  abuse  by  commercial  parties,  including  placing  technical  restrictions  on  automated  querying. 

We  also  ask  that  you: 

+  Make  non-commercial  use  of  the  files  We  designed  Google  Book  Search  for  use  by  individuals,  and  we  request  that  you  use  these  files  for 
personal,  non-commercial  purposes. 

+  Refrain  from  automated  (/nerving  Do  not  send  automated  queries  of  any  sort  to  Google's  system:  If  you  are  conducting  research  on  machine 
translation,  optical  character  recognition  or  other  areas  where  access  to  a  large  amount  of  text  is  helpful,  please  contact  us.  We  encourage  the 
use  of  public  domain  materials  for  these  purposes  and  may  be  able  to  help. 

+  Maintain  attribution  The  Google  "watermark"  you  see  on  each  file  is  essential  for  informing  people  about  this  project  and  helping  them  find 
additional  materials  through  Google  Book  Search.  Please  do  not  remove  it. 

+  Keep  it  legal  Whatever  your  use,  remember  that  you  are  responsible  for  ensuring  that  what  you  are  doing  is  legal.  Do  not  assume  that  just 
because  we  believe  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  for  users  in  the  United  States,  that  the  work  is  also  in  the  public  domain  for  users  in  other 
countries.  Whether  a  book  is  still  in  copyright  varies  from  country  to  country,  and  we  can't  offer  guidance  on  whether  any  specific  use  of 
any  specific  book  is  allowed.  Please  do  not  assume  that  a  book's  appearance  in  Google  Book  Search  means  it  can  be  used  in  any  manner 
anywhere  in  the  world.  Copyright  infringement  liability  can  be  quite  severe.

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  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

ILLUSTRATIONS 


Portraits  of  Presidents, 
Public  Buildings,  Monuments, 
Places  of  Patriotic  Interest, 
Historical  Paintings  and 
Contemporary  Cartoons 


(J  The  collection  of  pictures  appearing  in  the  first  ten 
volumes  of  this  set  can  safely  be  said  to  be  the  best  eve 
gathered  together  for  the  purpose  of  illustrating  the  his- 
tory and  progress  of  our  country  from  every  viewpoint. 

•J  The  pictures  themselves  almost  tell  the  story  of  the 
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. 

fl  In  the  forepart  of  each  of  the  first  ten  volumes  will  be 
found  a  list  of  the  pictures  contained  in  the  given  volume.

AlasVv  —  lllrtory.  —  Alaska  derives  Its 
HUM  from  an  Kngllsh  corruption  of  the 
native  word  "Al-ay-ei-*a,"  probably  mean- 
ing "The  treat  land"  or  "Mainland  " 

The  region  now  kuown  as  Alaska  was 
flrat  explored  by  th*  Kuaalan  officers  Bering 
mil  Chlrifcen  In  IT41.  Russian  iradera  and 
trapper*  soon  entered  the  country  and 
through  their  activity  other  nations  became 
Intertaicd  In  HiIh  region.  Spanish  n

In  1821  Russia  atlempted  by  ukase  to 
exclude  foreign  navigators  from  Bering  Sea

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 : 

ARTICLE  I 

The  High  Contracting  Parties  agree  that 
all  disputes  between  them,  of  every  na- 
ture whatsoever,  to  the  settlement  of  which 
previous  arbitration  treaties  or  agreements 
do  not  apply  In  their  terms  or  are  not 
applied  In  fact,  shall,  when  diplomatic 
methods  of  adjustment  have  failed,  be  re- 
ferred for  Investigation  and  report  to  a

bit  crew.  Joining  by  fledge  the  eastern 
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. 
The  Parana  River,  formed  by  the  Junction 
of  the  Upper  Parana  with  the  Uruguay 
River,  flows  through  the  northeastern  states 
into  the  Atlantic,  and  Is  navigable  through- 
out its  course:  the  Pilcomayo.  Bermejo,  and 
Sa'ado  del  Norte  are  also  navigable  for 
some  distance  from  their  confluence  with 
tbe  Parana.  In  Buenos  Aires  the  Salado 
del  Slid  flows  southeast  for  some  300  miles 
Into  Sumborombon  Boy  ( Atlantic).  In  rhe 
south  the  Colorado  and  Rio  Negro  rise  In 
the  extreme  west  and  flow  across  the  pam- 
pas Into  the  Atlantic,  many  similar  streams 
In  Patagonia  traversing  the  country  from 
tbe    Andes   to    the   Atlantic.

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

Arlington  Confederate  Monument  Asso- 
ciation. —  During  the  administration  of 
President  McKlnley  the  Confederate  dead 
burled  in  the  City  of  Washington.  D.  C. 
and  vicinity  were  removed  to  the  National 
Cemetery  at  Arlington,  Va.,  the  old  home  of 
Robert  E.  Lee.  where  they  were  relnterred 
in  a  plot  of  ground  set  apart  by  the  Presi- 
dent for  that  purpose,  and  designated 
"The  Confederate   Section." 

The  Arlington  Confederate  Monument 
Association  was  formed  for  the  purpose  of 
erecting  In  this  section  a  suitable  monument 
to  the  dead  there  burled,  and  to  stand,  in 
a  larger  sense,  as  a  memorial  to  all  those 
who  lost  their  lives  in  defense  of  the  Con- 
federacy, as  well  as  to  the  cause  they 
represented. 

The  Association  was  formed  aa  a  com- 
mittee of  the  United  Daughters  of  the  Con- 
federacy, the  President-General  of  which  Is 
the    President    of    the    association.  The 

monument  was  completed  and  unveiled  by 
President  Wilson,  June  4,  1914.  (Page

Armada,.— A  group  of  war  vessels  maneuv-

Armageddon. — In  the  peroration  of  his 
speech  on  the  eve  of  the  National  Repub- 
lican Convention  at  Chicago,  June  17,  1912. 
Mr.  Roosevelt,  after  denouncing  what  he 
termed  fraudulent  practices  of  corrupt  poli- 
ticians, called  upon  bis  hearers  to  take  the 
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- 
vice In  the  newly  acquired  possessions,  the 
Presldi-nt  was  authorized  to  maintain  the 
regular  army  at  a  strength  of  6.1.000  en- 
listed men  and  to  raise  a  force  of  35.000 
volunteers,  to  be  recruited  from  the  country 
at  large  or  from  the  localities  where  their 
services  are  needed,  "without  restriction  as 
to  citizenship  or  educational  qualifications." 

An  act  of  February.  1901.  abolished  the 
"rtnteen"  from  the  army,  that  Is.  prohibit- 
ed the  sale  of  beer  or  any  Intoxicating 
liquors  at  the  army  posts.  The  organiza- 
tion of  the  army  was  further  modified  by 
•n  act  of  Congress  approved  Feb.  14.  1003. 
*olrh  created  the  General  Staff  Corps.

employed  In  the  parliament  of  Scotland  In 
eases  of  ostracism  two  centuries  earlier. 
In   n: :'.  I  II  began  to  be  uaed  In  elections  for

Australian  ballot  system  wore  Intro- 1 
In  the  legislatures  of  Michigan  and  ,s-w 
York  In  18S7,  but  failed  of  passnge  ihkii 
lxsii,  when  tbe  system  was  adopted  In  a 
slightly  mndiriid  form.  In  1888,  tbe  sys- 
tem was  adopted  at  Louisville.  Kv..  and  In 
Massachusetts.  Tbla  method  requires  the 
namea  of  all  the  candidate)  for  all  the 
offices  to  be  placed  on  one  ticket.  The 
voter  retires  to  a  private  booth  and  Indi- 
cates his  choice  by  making  a  murk  oppo- 
site a  party  emblem  or  a  candidate's  name. 
This  system  of  voting  waa  first  proposed  by

attempt  to  simplify  elecilooa  by  placing 
a  few  officers  In  nomination  at  one  time 
and  providing  (hat  only  Important  officers

were  submitted  at  the  special  election  held 
In  California.  Oct.  10,  1011,  and  both

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,

Colony.  This  charter  continued  In  force 
180  years.  In  1605  the  Hoard  of  Trade 
and  Plantations  was  established  and  given

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

of  Claims  kuown  as,  4003. 
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. 
A  number  of  conditions  are  requisite  for  the

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.

Judiciary.— The  Federal  Jndlelury  ajratem 
was  modeled  after  thai  of  tircet  Britain. 
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

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

Official  figures  of  dead,  wounded  and  miss- 
ing, both  soldier  and  civilian,  that  marked 
the  progress  of  the  American  expedition  In

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

tion of  a  military  academy  Ipnge  10-Ji.

dets of  tbc  corps  of  artillerists  should  re- 
port at  West  Point,  on  the  Hudson  River,
