Omaha Bee.
Statistics show that the male popula-
ton of the civilized world is falling
farther and farther behind the female.
According to the last British census the
excess of women and girls over men
and boys in Great Britain is about 9OO,-
600, an increase in ten years of nearly
200, 900. The German census of last De-
cember places the number of females
about 600, 900 above that of the males in
the kingdom of Prussia, or nearly three
times the excess of twenty years ago.
There are 1000, 900 more females than
males in the whole German empire.
In Sweden and Norway the weaker
sex" are in the majority by 100000; in
Austria Hungary by 100000; in Den
mark by $4,000, and in every European
country they outnumber the males. In
the United States, Canada and Austria
liza the males are in the majority
though not largely So the estimated
excess of males in this country being
but little over one million. 1t is plain
that but for immigration, which fur
nishes a much greater number of men
than women, the latter would soon be
in the majority here. There is large
preponderance now of females in New
England, and in some other sections of
the United States, and if immigration
were to materially decrease, undoubt-
edly the surplus of males would soon
disappear in the whole country. In
less civilized countries, where women
are lightly esteemed, it is otherwise
India having about six million more
men than women, while the males
largely preponderate in China.
The Obvious deduction is that the
higher civilization is most favorable to
the increase of the female sex, and this
suggests the question whether civilza-
ton is doing the best thing for the
world in producing this result. A fact
of hardly less interest brought out by
the British census is the marked de-
cline i'm the marriage rate, which has
been almost steadily tending downward
for two decades. Meantime there has
been an even more decided decline in
the birth rate, SO that not only is mar
riage decreasing, but marriages are be-
coming less prolific on the average.
There is the same tendency in this
country, prevailing chiefly among the
better classes. An excess of females in
country is certain to have an unfa
vorable influence on the marriage rate,
and the moral consequences of such a
state of affairs can easily be conceived.
