The new census suggests many in
teresting comparisons. The fifty mil :
lions and more Of people in the country
last July must by this time have in
creased to fifty y-one millions. New
York State alone has about one tenth
of this number; and central area of
six contiguous States, New Y ork, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana,
and Illinois, will comprise nearly
nineteen million people, New York,
Pennsylvania and Ohio contain twelve
and half millions. Rhode Island has
more people than Florida. Illinois
contains over three million people and
is only 10000 behind Ohio, If Mis-
souri, be counted henceforth among
Western rather than Southern States
the most populous Of the latter will be
Kentucky; but just behind are four
close rivals Texas, Tennessee, Geor-
gla and Virginia, having each over
fifteen hundred thousand and less than
sixteen hundred thousand people
! leSas has raised her relative position
on the schedule of States more than
any other in the past ten years; Iowa
Is one OF the rapidly growing States of
the Northwest; she is far ahead of
Wisconsin. Two states widely sepa-
rated in geographical position were
neck-and'neck last July in population,
and both had grown surprisingly In
ten years-Kansas, with 995, ,3s5 peo-
pie, and South Carolina with 99s,7O6
By this time each has more than mil
lion to her credit, SO making the States
containing million or more people
already twenty -one in number.

The U. S. Deputy Marshals, or the
Republican ballot,box corruptionists
under the sanction of an Infamous law
passed by Republican Congress to
perpetuate its Office tenure, are clamor-
Gus for the appropriation OF a half
million of dollars from the peoples
Treasury to compensate their partisan
labor 1t is not likely that the present
Democratic Congress will sanction this
robbery by such appropriation. The
plea that they acted under the law
does not signify in equity, for they did
so after due notice from Congress that
inasmuch as the said law was anti-Dem-
ocratic, wholly partisan in its inception
and execution. no money would be ap-
propriated from the public treasury to
compensate Republican ward bummers
in their obstruction of the free ballot.
|
1t would be equally proper for Con-
gress to pay the entire campaign ex-
penses, including the millions spent to
colonize and purchase Garfield votes,
There is not the least difference in the
two propositions. The Republican
who seriously believes otherwise is to
be pitied for his mental deficiency,
while the intelligent Republican who
favors the half million appropriation
to the Republican electioneerers, called
U. S. Deputy Marshals, lacks the chief
essentials of good citizenship, and
would endorse any other theft to the
bankruptcy of the Government for the
benefit of himself and partisan asso.

The Earl of Beaconsfeld is very re-
markable orator, but superficial as a
statesman. Gladstone is man of ex-

craftsmanship. Coming to America,
Samuel J. Tilden, as "a statesman, has

broken consent, exempted from the

faulted in the interest due to other

paid promptly on debt held by her.
