A E5D OMEN ~ FRANCE.

The Upward drift Of population. which has
been observed in this country in recent years, is
now strikingly noticeable in France According
to the census of april l., 1891. the official re-
turns Of which have at length been made the
Republic contained on that date 3S.3i3.l92. This
was an increase Of nearly l2j,00O since the last
preceding census WAS taken five years before;
and $4,000 year is a slow rate of growth for
so great a nation But there was actually
considerable falling off Of the rural population
more than 100000 decrease in five years. The
Increase was in the towns and ctics-Paris.
Marseilles. Montpelier. Toulouse and bordeaux
showing marked growth Considerably more
than one-th:rd Of the people of France to-day
live i'm urban communities. In 1856 the proper
ton was less than 80 per cent. Five years later
1t was nearly - per cent. And, according 10
careful observers. the movement not only con
tinues. but is steadily accelerated. so that by
this time probably close 10 40 per cent Of the
French people are town-dwellers.
Under almost any circumstances this tendency
would be deporabe. In this country even, its
effects have been seen in abandoned farms on
the one hand and ovcrcrowdcd city labor mar
kets on the other. But both the general growth
and the productive capacities Of the United
States are so vast that these effects are of only
local importance. In country Of So slow
growth AS France. and with so different rcla-
ton between production and consumption they
are Of great and universal moment. For many
years the prosperity Of France. in spite of disas-
tiers almost unparalleled. has been the envy Of
Europe. There Is no doubt that II has largely
been due 10 the peasant proprietorshlp Of the
land. and to the thrift and industry with which

Police Commissioner Kerwn is right in saying
that the present is a time for sustaining the

In performing their duty. That superintendent
Ryrnes realizes this is apparent from the dill
cencc which he displayed on Sunday In travel
ling from station to station and taking personal
observations Of the way the police work is being
done. His activity appears to have had good
effect on some of the inspectors also. The police
are under fire. 1t Is true. but the effect
