SOCIAL SCIENCE

Last Evening.
A Study Of Population Question :
Fvancs.Paotovs OF 81 ustlon
and Z conclusions.

Prof. W. d. Alexander read an es-
say last evening before Social Science
Association upon "A Study of the
Population Question in France" OF
which the following Is an abstract:
The decline OF population in France
has attracted the attention of the SO
biologists of all countries, and espe-
cially that of the French themselves.
Probably no country contains more
eminent economists, historians and
statisticians. for such studies are pecu-
liarly congenial to the logical and ana
lytical turn Of the French mind. The
threatened decadence Of their race has
profoundly stirred all patriotic French
men. especially since the last census
was taken, and has called forth num-
Der Of able articles and pamphlets.
DECLINE OF THE POPULATION
Taking the increase of population
in France for periods of five years
each. We find that II was between 1872
and 1876, S02,S67: 1876 and 1881. 1885,
260: 1881 and 1856. 546,955: 1886 and
1891, a decrease of 23.753: 1891 and
1896. an increase Of 1880. which last
is about equal to that OF England dur
ing three months.
After deducting immigration. the
population OF England increases about
$4,000 and that of Germany between
$50 900 and 100000 year. while that

OF France increases only about 25.-
900 a year, including q certain proper
ton of foreigners. Since the year 1900
the population Of Great Britain has
risen from eight to thirty-eight mil
lions, while that OF France has barely
doubled.
CONSEQUENCES.
The French historians deplore the
progressive decline in the relative
rank of their country among the Eu-
rOpean powers during the last two
centuries. Under Louis XIV. in 1900,
France with her nineteen millions Of
inhabitants contained 80 per cent of
the population of the three great pow
|ers-France, Great Britain and the Ger
man Empire. In 1889 Russia had be-
come one of the four great powers, Of
which France then represented 81 per
and the NapOleOnic wars. the proper
ton Of France was reduced to 20 per
cent. In 1890 the admission OF italy
had raised the number Of great powers
to six, and reduced to about IL per cent
the part Of France with her 3Sls mil
lions, while Germany has fifty-two
millions. II the United States are
counted in as the seventh great power,
the proportion OF France falls TO 10 per
cent.
FACTORS OF SITUATION.
Prof. Alexander, in dealing with the
factors OF the situation, considers the
marriage rate" the mortality rate"
| and the cost OF childgen; and under
the subject OF marriages ne treats Of
the birth rate Of France. He shows
that the mortality Of children in France
Is very high, reaching 16 per cent dur
ing the first year Of age. On compar-
Ing the death rate Of Paris with that
OF the country districts OF France, II Is
found that the former is about one
third higher than the latter. The prin-
cipal causes Of this Increased death
rate are the greater intensity of the
struggle for life, unsanitary conditions,
alcoholism and other vices.
OTHER CAUSES.
The various economic causes are
specifically set forth under taxation,
inheritance, society, education. mar
riage laws. city life. morality. female
disability. and French authors are
largely quoted from to sustain the
facts cited.
CONCLUSION.
To conclude. a disinterested specta-
tor must admit that some OF the symp-
toms which We have been considering
are those OF a decadent race, and that
there IL ample cause for sollcltudo on
the part OF patriotic Frenchmen. still
