FREELAND, PA., APRIL 20, 1893. Democratic Advisers. Three gentlemen, an Independent, ft Democrat and a Republican, respective ly, advise the Democratic party how to use tho great opportunity before it. The Independent is Hon. Both Low, president of Columbia college, New York, tho Democrat is Hon. Oswald Ottendorfer and the Republican is Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge. Mr. Low says that tho election of President Cleveland was a victory for tho principles advocated by him; also for the man himself, because voters had confi dence that he would adhere to those principles through thick and thin. Mr. Cleveland was elected, in the estimation of President Low, chietly because lie fa vored tariff reform and civil service re form, and because lie was opposed to ex travagant pension and other legislation. If now the Democratic party will go in for tariff reform, if it will destroy tho spoils system and also break up the Dem ocratic local party machine, then, in the ! estimation of Mr. Low, it will be tho rul- ; ing party in this country for a long time. Mr. Oswald Ottendorfer is especially concerned about the silver dollar. He plants liimself on tho gold basis as on the rock of his salvation, and says this country is now dancing 011 a volcano. The volcano may, so to speak, erupt and blow us into financial kingdom come at any moment just so long as we continue "to dump the proceeds of silver mines into tho national treasury and issue therefor treasury notes interchangeable for gold or silver coin." This practice ! Mr. Ottendorfer considers on a par with the teaching that it "requires only an act of congress to make GO cents' worth j of silver equal to a dollar in gold." One ' gathers that Mr. Ottendorfer is a "gold bug," and considers tho repeal of the I Sherman silver act of 1890 as the most howling duty of the Democratic party and the Fifty-third congress. Then there is Hon. Cabot Lodgo. 110 is by no means obscure as to what liis idea of the Democratic duty of the hour is. It is to inaugurate free trade. "Un less the victorious party is false to tho plainest kind of pledge, they must sweep 1 protection from the statute books." 110 declares the new system must have a j fair trial, and the party in power must ; raise government revenues by methods | whicli can give no protection whatever, j If tlieir system is successful, wo will stick to it. If it is a failure, out tho I voters of the country will whop the Dem ocrats, and in will go tho Republicans again, thinks Mr. Lodge. War anil Baked Beans. It is a good story, that told by R. K. Mdnkittrick in Harper's Magazine. Ho was walking "along tho bluff at Sias consett" when he was accosted by a venerable man who had been in the war. | Tho ©ld fellow's case seemed a pathetic one, as he told how strong he was be fore tho war, how ho could do anything ere tho fatal years of army service that had sapped his vigor and reduced him to a wreck. Ho said sadly that ho had been a whole week "a-paintin that there stoop." ne was not so old yet, ho said; would not bo 78 till February, and ho ought to bo as lively as a cricket still. Ho felt that ho would havo been indeed only for tho war that had mined his health and mado him an old man before his tirno. Munkittrick sympathized, and the veteran told how the war had knocked him out: "It was tlio war that done it," ho continued, with great feeling. "I came back all chock full of rheuinatiz and malary, and I ain't never been the same man since. I tell you that war was an awful failure for me." "It was a very sad affair," I said in a kind attempt to be sympathetic. "Yes," ho replied, "it was. Why, do you know what I could do beforo tho war?" "No." "Well," he continued, "I could sit down and cat lu plates of baked beans for breakfast with out turning a lmir, and now I can't eat one plateful to save my life." Tho next move in naval progress will probably bo to sheathe the bottoms of tho new eraisers with a coating ©f wood and copper. The sheathing prevents tho accumulation of barnacles upon tho ship's steel bottom, and the consequent frequent docking and cleaning which this fouling makes necessary. The heavy clogging of the barnacles and other sub stances makes tho vessel's bottom so rough and heavy that her progress is seriously impeded, and her coal bills run inordinately high. Besides that, one of of our new cruisers could not mn away from an enemy if her bottom was fouled with barnacles. THAT PORTENTOUS IF. If All Goes Well the World Will Be Better in 1993. A FORECAST It Y HENRY GEORGE. fie Expects a Woutlerful Development of Civilization in the Twentieth Century, j Annie lletiant Says Social Reform or Rev- ! olution Is Inevitable—The Future of ; Electricity. [.Copyright, ISU3, by American Press Associa tion.] Of all the questions you suggest as to the changes that another century will bring in the conditions of our people, the fundamen tal question —that upon which all the rest are dependent—is this, "Will the tendency toward the accumulation of wealth in tho hands of a few increase or diminish?" While this as yet can only be answered with an "if," the determining element is clear, for it depends on laws as certain as that of gravitation. By virtue of his physical constitution van is a land animal, bound by the neces sities of his existence to tho surface of the globe. On it be must live, and from it he must draw for all his needs. No discovery or invention or improvement can rid him of this dependence. The last man, as the first man. must have land for his standing place and must draw his subsistence, his very flesh and blood, from land. No matter how elaborate, how refined, bow potent his methods of production may become, they must always have land as tlieir in dispensable basis and reservoir, and must always consist in the combination of the matter and forces to be found only in land. This being the case, the fundamental so cial relation—thut which determines all others—must be in the future what experi ence shows it to have been in the past—tho tenure of land. Where the equal rights of all men to the use of land are accorded, no serious inequality in the distribution of wealth can arise iu peaceful states, and ad vance in productive power will increase the general well being and lead to further ad vances. But where land is treated as the property of some, from whom others must purchase the privilege of li\ ing and work ing, a tendency to inequality is at once set up,which every advance in productive pow er tends to increase, for, since land is in dispensable to the exertion of labor, no ad vance in the power of production can ben efit those who have merely the power to labor. That of itself being useless, the growth of population and the improvement of the arts can only drive the disinherited class of mere laborers into a fiercer competition with each other for the privilege of work ing, while a larger and larger share of the production of labor passes into the hands of those who, in their monopolization of tho natural element of all production, havo control of the right to work. Thus discov ery, invention and improvement—every thing, in short, in which the material prog ress of society consists—tends under this primary injustice to increase inequality in the distribution of wealth until at bust the monstrous inequality destroys advance and brings retrogression, and in violent ca tastrophe or dull dry rot inventions and dis coveries ure lost and arts and letters forgot ten. | To us of tlve west era world, and especial ly to us of that new world which Columbus opened to European civilization, the won derful improvements of the century now closing seem naturally but the prelude to far greater improvements in the next. But we must not forget that the majority of the human race know nothing of our im provements, and that the long history of humanity shows that advance has never before been continuous. And already we may see, in the massing of monstrous for tunes on the one hand and increasing in tensity of the struggle tofiive 011 the other, the growth of that inequality that has over and over again in the world's history stopped invention and improvement and turned progress into decline. Nor is there anything that can check this tendency to inequality save tho recognition of the equal rights to tho uso of the ele ment from which alone men can live. Abolish all other monopolies save that of j land, and the ultimate result must bo but j to increase the share of the production of wealth that can be taken by land owners, j It cannot raise wages or make it easier for mere laborers to live. Nor can any diffusion lof education, or purification of govern ment, or doing away with middlemen prevent the widening of the gulf between the rich and tho poor, so long as land is treated as subject to that individual right of property that rightfully belongs to the things that human exertion brings into : being. As to charity, that is hopeless, and ! worse than hopeless when not based on I justice. Therefore it is that the conditions which will exist in this country when the children of children yet to be bora celebrate the fifth centenary of the discovery of the great Genoese must depend upon whether, while they yet have power, the masses of our peo ple accept or reject the one great reform which is embodied in the single tax propo sition. If they do, and I now believe they will, then the Twentieth century may see the development of a civilization that transcends the imagination of the Nine teenth century. If they do not, then there must befall us, but 011 a far grander scale and with a far quicker movement, what befell ancient Rome. HENRY GEORGE. Annie ISchunt on Human Development. Regarding the civilization of the western world in the light of the esoteric philoso phy, I judge it as success or ns failure as it approaches toward or recedes from the ideal of brotherhood, as it encourages or thwarts the spiritual progress of man. The rapid increase of wealth in the hands of a comparatively small class; the grow ing control of natural forces by ever widen ing knowledge; the exclusion of vast num bers of the population from the benefits of this growing control; the advancing edu cation of the laboring classes and their ever improving methods of combination— theso and many other causes are produc ing a state of social tension which must re sult in social change—peaceful or other wise. It is against brotherhood that million aires and starving men and women should coexist in society. It is against brother hood that the growing control of natural forces should make a few scandalously rich and leave the many scandalously poor. A society based on unbrotherly competition instead of on brotherly co-operation cannot last any more than can last a building built in defiance of the laws of mechanics. Hence I regard our present social system as doomed to collapse as other systems have collapsed which were open to the same criticism. Another reason for regarding this system as doomed Is that it Is an anachronism in conflict with the present stage of the evo lutionary law. We are in the fifth great stage of human development, and the fifth stage is that of the mind. The function of man just now is to evolve the principle of intelligence dwelling within him, and the mind powers already evolved give him a control over physical forces sufficient to sup ply his bodily necessities and leave him ample leisure for cultivating his intellect, were that control used for the general good instead of for the heaping up of unnecessary wealth in the hands of a limited number. The majority of our population, especially in the older countries—the European states —toil with little intermission all their lives through merely to keep life in their bodies. They havo no leisure for cultivating the in tellectual powers, the artistic faculties, the imaginative potencies of the human mind. They ffre condemned to a life of labor, the price of which merely purchases for them the right to live. Thus does the horse earn his food and his shelter, and with these generally more consideration for his health than is bestowed on his fellow drudge, the man who drives him. The horse needs but food, shelter and rest; the man needs for his human evolution leisure for mental study with unweary body. That is the right of each child of man born into the world at this stage of evolution, for our animal development lies behind us, and our present task is to evolve the human ele ment in us—the mind or soul. Society should therefore lie organized for ' the production of wealth with the least i possible expenditure of human energy and ! the brotherly distribution of the wealth i produced, in order that man's forces may j be directed to the mental development of i the race. A society which, like our own, j sets itself against the order of evolution by I shutting the majority of its members away from the possibility of performing the task ' set them by nature, must be crushed under ! the relentless and irresistible progress of that nature which it blindly opposes. While America hus not yet touched the worst conditions of labor, found so plenti fully in Europe, its social organization is instinct with the same forces, and there fore ultimately with the same effects. But | being younger and stronger than the Eu- j ropean states, it has more possibility of ; working out fundamental reforms in peace than Europe seems to possess. In the so ciety of the future it seems to me that the sexes will co-operate for mutual service, each bringing its special powers to the help of the race, without artificial re strictions on either; that a marriage entered into without intellectual and moral affinities will he condemned as pros titution is now, and that it will be permanent, us intellectual and moral char acter is permanent; that brutal crime will have disappeared, and subtler evils will be met by brotherly compassion, not by vin dictive penalty; that temperance legislor tlonwill be unknown because drunkenness will be as impossible us the reodoption of the wood garments of our ancestors; thut —ah, me! but I am thinking of a state much further in the future than the Amer ica of 1903. ANNIE BESANT, F. T. S. Froliiible Developments of Electricity. [From Our New York Correspondent.] Mr. J. J. Carty, who is regarded by elec tricians as a man of expert authority, and who is the mechanical chief of the greatest telephone corporation in America, in speak ing of the probable developments of elec tricity in the Twentieth century, said: They are almost inconceivable. We can not tell what t he next century may develop. If progress is as swift as it lias been since Professor Bell demonstrated that the hu man voice can be conveyed over a wire charged with electricity, we are likely to see early in the next century some develop ments that will be simply' revolutionary. Without suggesting any that may be re garded as merely the dream of a visionary or as the fanciful flight of imagination, 1 think perhaps I can indicate some that may be reasonably expected from present conditions. In the first place, there is the use of elec tricity in domestic economy. lam inclined to think that not many years hence it will be found serving the household exactly as gas, steam and coal now serve it. It will be possible for the cook, for instance, by simply turning on the electric current to procure heat sufficient for all cooking pun poses. When the cooking is done the elec tric current will be turned oil, and there will be no wastage, as is the case now in the use of coal. Already there are electric cooking ranges in existence, and I presume these will be highly developed so that they will serve the most exacting -requirements of even a SIO,OOO chef. Then, too, we may reasonably expect to see, at least in the cities, electricity used generally for heating purposes. That will also bo an economy. There will be no wastage of coal. A single room may be heated by turning on the current, or a whole house or great building if that bo the desire. It will also bo used for light ing, I think, very generally. Its convenience and safety are now demonstrated, and while it may not entirely supplant gas it is cer tainly bound to bo quite as widely used in private families as gas is now. I But I think the most important develop ment, so far as domestic economy is con cerned, will be found in a change in the manner of utilization of coal. In the larger towns I presume that there will be no de livery of coal at the houses, as is now the case. Coal will be taken to a central sta tion and there converted into electric ener gy, exactly as is the case now in the manu facture of gas. This central agency will furnish the electric current for heating, lighting and cooking purposes. The econ omy will be very great. The wastage of coal is enormous, even in private houses, and it is for the most part unavoidable, and the geqyral use of electricity for do mestic purposes will be found to be an economy. It is possible, although I do not want to be quoted as saying that it is probable, that during the next century the secret of the extraction of the energy which is in coal direct, may be disoovered. If that is done it will simply revolutionize civilization. It will vastly cheapen not only the cost of living, but the cost of all commercial enter prises. A very great percentage of the en ergy stored up in coal is now wasted. It goes forth through chimneys; it is lost in heat which is not utilized. The warmth which you feel when you go into a boiler room or into a kitchen is simply dead waste. It lias been estimated that if the energy which is in coal could all bo utilized one ton would serve the purpose for which five tons ure now required. This might give us possibly a solution of aerial navigation. It certainly would vastly cheapen traffic, and it is almost impossible to estimate the con sequences to civilization which might fol low this discovery. Ido not want to give Wie impression that I think the discovery will be made in the next century, but I am entirely willing to say that it is possible that we may hear of it at any time. The remarkable discoveries of Nicola Tenia are going to play an important part. I think, in the commercial development of the next century. Tesla has discovered tjiftt an electylc current generated in a cey* I * I tain manner too technical here to explain may be passed from one conductor to an other without any intermediary connection, like n wire. It will go through a stone wall precisely as light goes through glass. The possibilities which lio in this discov- ! ery are simply enormous, and they may revolutionize some forms of development. For instance, it may have a powerful influ ence In the conduct of the wars which may break out in the Twentieth century, if any do. If it is possible to convey the electric current from one disk to another in a room without any medium, it might be possible to direct it from a proper motor upon shore to the iron sides of a great war vessel and with such intensity as instantly to melt the iron or steel plates as though they had been struck by lightning. The use of the flashlight and the great electric reflectors is sure to bo very general in military operations in the next century, and some of my acquaintances have some times suggested—not wholly in a flippant spirit—that electricity itself may bo the great destructive agent employed in mili tary operations in the Twentieth century. But more practical than uiis suggestion is another which is perfectly reasonable. I am Inclined to think that the development of the trolley railway is going to bo one of the mightiest factors in the urban civiliza tion of the next century. The indications now are that it may solve some of the prob lems of overcrowding which have vexed the social economists, nnd, on the other hand, may glee to those who live in rural districts just that relief and recreation of which they are now deprived and which they so greatly desire. I suspect that the trolley railway will bo found extending from the hearts of our great cities far out into the country dis tricts and over the highways, so that it will be possible for a man to step from his front i yard or a farmer to go from his driveway directly Into one of these cars and at the rate of twenty miles an hour or therea bouts be conveyed to the city. He will not be obliged to bother about time tables. The cars will run with frequency and at t rifling expense. They are simply going to mini- j hilate distance and to make the man who lives in the country to all intents and pur poses un inhabitant of the nearest city. It I is easy to see what an important effect this j will have upon the problems of great mu- ; nicipalitics. The Destiny of the Twentieth Century. i The conquest of the elements so that they may bo made to serve mankind is | manifestly to be coutinued in the next cen tury. That has been the distinguishing I feature of the Nineteenth centur£. How far men will subdue the forces of nature and compel service from them within the next hundred years is as inconceivable as it would have been for the men who fought the battles of the Revolution to understand how it could be possible to exchange Intel- j ligence with Europe on the instant, or to chat understandingly with a friend 1,000 miles away. The destiny of the Twentieth century is plainly for the higher and more majestic development for mail's joy and comfort of the secret, unseen powers that control the movements of the earth, and which, now operating by what aro called nature's laws, cause the fields to blossom, the trees to bud and leaf, the storms to come, the rain to fall, and do all these things, which we do not esteem marvelous because we are used to them, but which nevertheless give to the earth its life. It is to be the province of journalism to report these mighty works of man, perhaps to stimulate them, and when 100 years have passed the newspapers will have made the world, if not kin, at least neighbors. It is quite within the bounds of possibil ity that by the year 1003 the mechanical work of publishing newspapers may be 'done entirely by electricity, and the dis tributing of the printed papers may be accomplished with such celerity as to vast ly extend the legitimate field of any given journal. It Is quite possible that by the agency of forces just beginning to be understood the reporter and editor will no longer be com pelled to write, but that the spoken word may appear imprisoned in cold type. In one respect the newspaper of UIU3 will differ but little from that of todny. It may report news with greater accuracy of state ment and have the world and its doings more completely subject to instantaneous report, but the newspaper of 1008 must bo ! as is that of today, nothing hut the story of I human achievement, and the story of hu | man nature, and of the happenings of earth. The object of the business of journalism cannot change, but the methcxla of the business and its future development aro likely to share the benefits which are to eoiue from the mighty struggle of man with the elements to subdue them to his use. E. J. EDWARDS. The Science of Medicine in 1003. It gives mo much satisfaction to predict that a marked change will take place in the science of medicine. By IDifl doctors will prescribe no more than a third of the drugs they now think necessary. The true relation of the muscular system to the or ganic system and their combined influence on the nervous system will become more fully and generally Understood. The com bined action of the patient's mind and mus cles will be depended on instead of drugs to prevent, allay and cure disease. In theology more change will be mani fest in practice than in preaching, though sermons, too, will be different. Ministers will instruct their hearers in the philosophy I of pure morality and teach them how to live. The government of the body by in | telligent reason will be the < ne virtue in j culcated; ignorance and laziness will be the sins condemned and punished. The J man who does not know how to keep his , own body in health will bo considered as | great a sinner iis the man who cannot read ! and write. In methods of education there will be, in imy judgment, marked changes. The tend ency will be to return to the methods of j the old Greeks, a slight practical idea of , which can be obtained in any lecture room ; of one of our medical colleges. Instruction | will be given orally; the practicing of the j lessons will be done anywhere and every j where; children will bo allowed to play or study as they please. The veto power that teachers now exercise over children leav ing the room during school hours will be taken from them. School children will have a playground insteud of a yard for ; recreative purposes, and they will not ho made to walk around it in loekstep man ner. They will rather be incited to romp, shout and play. Physical culture, so termed, I call physical destruction, and it will not be taught. A knowledge of how to breathe, sit, stand, Ktoop, walk and run will comprise all the ' physical training that is necessary, and oven that will not be forced on children under fifteen years old. Their physical training will come, moreover, rather from j their parents than from their teachers. To rover whole field of education, in brief, , the reasoning faculties will be developed Instead of the memorizing ones, and liair- I lino writing, along with children in spec | tacks, will be among the things of the past.
