Whether the white population only IS to

Rsgister has taken both sides Of the ques-

each basis. The whole white population
is 424 OsG; which divided by 90 gives US
1872 land a fraction as ratio. The
whole mixed population is 442,O39; which
divided by SO furnishes a ratio Of 1885

less than half the ratio must be united
with contiguous county or counties in

counties whose population Is less than
