HOLIDAY VERSUS EVERYDAY STYLE

There can be no difference of opinion as
to the good effects that must result from
the Presidents trip. by which he and the
heads of two leading departments are be-
Ing brought into close contact with the
people Of the various sections visited. The
receptions and interviews are of the most
cordial and familiar character, charmingly
free from ostentation on the one side and
any scmblance of obseqaiousGess on the
other.

Quart. Mining in Clealum HnI..

RosLYN, April 24.-lSpecial. From present In
dications quartz and placer mining in the Gle
alum mountains win be very active this season.
The resources Of these mountains for varied
list OF minerals seems to be engaging particular
attention this year, and it is more than probable
that before the present mining season has closed
that the Clealum and Galena country will have
placed itself at the head of the important mining
districts of Washington. Work on the Gold Leaf
mine, which was recently purchased by Getchell
& Blewett from G. NJ. Seaton, will be COM
menced at once with the latter in charge of the
development work. S50-foot tunnel, 5is feet
widely Ga feet deep will be driven. Six thou
sand dollars will be expended In developing this
claim before machinery is placed in position.
Work on the claims of the Pacific Investment
Company in the upper Clealum country will be
commenced in few days. Snow in this dis
trict is several feet deep and retards active work
on this property. Thirty men will be given en-
ployrnent at this mine in the nexth month

URBAN VERSUS RURAL GROWTH.

Superintendent Porter's halletin, pre-
senting the growth of cities in the United
States within the past ten years. and the
proportion of urban to rural growth shows
an excess far beyond his previous esti-
mates and beyond public expectation,
though these were liberal. The Super.n-
tendent's original calculations led him TO
estimate that the growth of cities within
the decade would amount 10 ahoSt - per
cent. as against % per cent. for the de-
cade ending in 1850.
But the following is his showing as 10
the number of people living in cities,
towns or villages of more than 5000 popa-
lation for each OF the census wears, and
the proportion TO total population respec-
tivelv.

1850, and $50 for the decade from 1850 to
1870. and even these figures for the latter
period have been discredited As probably
excessive
But this does not fairly measure the re-
lation of urban growth with former periods
if the comparison be followed to its ulti-
mates. For the percentage of growth in
total population has been much less in the
last than in the next previous decade. In
the ten years ending with 1850 the cities
gained but a fraction over . per cent. of
the total increase. But between 1850 and
is90 the increase in the cities, as shown
above, was 6.9l7, LIB out of 4, 466. 467 of i'm
crease in total population, or nearly So per
cent. a jump of but little less than 100 per
cent. in the ratio of proportionate increase.
BY the press Of this country to a large
extern. this growing tendency to concen-
trate in cities has been regarded as
calanitous and matter which calls upon
craftsmanship to devise means for check
ing it. But the fact stands, that in spite
Tor in consequence? p of this tendency. and
coincidently with it, the country has
marvelously prospered. This suggests the
question whether healthy and encourag-
ing reason for the tendency may not be
found in the growth of manufactures, and
of commerce. and in improved methods Of
production and transportation, and the
greater diversifcation of industries
1t is claimed, and most persistently
claimed in certain quarters that should be
well informed, that farming, the chief oc-
cupation Of the rural communities, has
been less profitable than the average of
other employments. If that be so those
who have been drawn from that to other
empioyments have been profited by the
change, but at all events there would have
production, and consequently less profit in
farming, and less of general prosperity, II
the farming had increased in more equal
ratio to the urban population.
While it is unquestionably true that in
this and some other new districts there is
room and encouragement for very consid-
cradle increase of agricultural production,
and that thereby the general prosperity of
such districts would be greatly enhanced,
it is equally true that generally through
out the country, and especially in these
districts, greater increase in the NUMBER Of
people is required and must beexpected for
the development of manufactures, mining,
commerce, transportation and the like.
The simple, patent fact is that, thanks to
improved methods of production, it takes
fewer people to produce and far greater
number to distribute their productions
than in by-gone times.
With the same number in the rural dis
tricts producing ten times as much as
formerly, far greater number of people
are needed in the urban districts to work
up and distribute the increased production.
Is not this probably, in the main, the rea-
SON for the conditions complained Of? If
so, is it proper cause for complaint
