TIE EKhNCn NAIIoN DYING.

II has frequently been the subject OF
comment that the dee,h rate of France
was far ahead Of its birth rate and that
the French nation was actually dying
out. the only important influx Of popu-
lation being from surrounding coun-
tries The latest official reports con-
firm the fears expressed in this con
nection.
Some have ascribed the decreasing
birth rate 10 the influence Of great
cities. but this theory is confronted by
the fact that the decrease Of births
is general throughout the country, and
furthermore. the decrease is recorded
far back in decades before the big
cities exerted the evil influence now
ascribed 10 them.
Can country die a natural death
like an individual. if its population does
not receive fresh accretiols from other
races? 1t is difficult to find an explain
alton of the decreases of births in the
French provinces. where the people
are largely independent landholders
and where suffering from scanty food
is the exception. Many believe we
must submit to the conclusion that
races which do not intermarry, like
agricultural products planted perpetu-
ally in one soil without rotation, must
ultimately die out.
AT the end of the last century France
contained y per cent of the population
of the great European powers. Since
then she has been steadily going the
way of extinction. Jacques Bertillon.
the inventor of the famous system of
identifying criminals who has been
studying the problem diligently, can see
no escape.

Senator Thurston has suggested that
the bill may pass the Senate early in

press reports. But it is evident either
that Thurston is a rash, optimistic
creature with little knowledge of Sen
atorial methods or that the telegraph
editor carelessly dropped out cipher
The Senate began consideration of the
English arbitration treaty some months
ago and it is now some years farther
away from knowing what it wants to
do with that measure than it was at
the beginning.
