CENTENNIAL CENSyIs.

In two years, the United States of Amer
lea Will have completed the first century of
its existence as a nation. Less than four
hundred years ago this was an unknown
land, and, even, two and n half centuries
ago, the inhabitants, of that which Is now
the United States of America, could he
numbered by the hundreds, while three
years previous not single white person
was Il resident therein. The growth of
this country in population, wealth. COM
mercc, the development of material re-
sources, and in all the elements which 20
10 make up nations prosperity have far
exceeded the widest dreams of the most
utopian philosopher. The completion of
this century must be a landmark in our
history, and everything in reference to our
condition should be placed upon record. so
that, century hence, the advance made
can be determined to certainty. 1t is un-
fortunate that we have no census for 1,7j.
so that we can mark the progress of our
first century. The first census, authorized
by the general government, was taken in
1870, at which time the population of the
whole country was less than that now con-
tanned in the state of 1S>w York alone.
From this well established fact, an an
proXimatc idea of the population of the
country fifteen years before may be OBJ
tanned, and some comparison made in ref
erencc TO the ccntury's progress. Since
1850, census has been taken every ten
years, the last being in 1870. We do not
propose, for in this day and generation it
is unnecessary, to endeavor to prove that
these cnumeratons of population. etc, are
necessary. Annually, or oftener, the
merchant and business man takes his
census" in order to ascertain his profit or
loss. Without it, ruin would be in
cvitabe in ninety-nnc cases out of hun
bred. So these periodical ccnsuses show
the nation its progress in one direction or
lis rc,rogrcsson in another, and suggest to
the legislator what class of industry needs
the fostering care of the government We
presume that there is no int ,lligent person
who would, for moment, dispute the in
c-timable value of the statistics so gathered
and the deductions so drawn thereGrom.
We trust that Congress will act upon the
recommendation Of the President, and
order census TO he taken in 1919, So tina,
the ledger OF the nation may be posted for
the century, and point fixed from which
uur future progress may be calculated.
