NE1N YORk,S POPULATION.

The people of New York city judging
from what that city's newspapers say.
are very well satisfied with the work Of
their census takers. Greater New York
has a population of 3.4S7202. This is a
gain Of almost 10000 in ten yesrs-a
gain of $40 per cent. 1t is stated that
within a radius of twenty miles of New
York there is population of 4323,702
At the present rate of increase New York
will have over 100000 people within
twenty-five years. If London grows no
faster than she is growing now, New
York will be ahead of her at the end of
that period. and will be the most popu-
lous city in The world.
It seems that the census gives Chi
cago. only 1.695OOO inhabitants She is very
much aggrieved, and is demanding a re-
can be shown that the work of her CEN
sus enumerators was done so badly that
a large percentage of the people was
missed She had a police census taken
a little while ago, and she claims it
sows that her population is 2s5 600 more
sus. 1t is probable that the United
States enumerators missed a few thou
sands of her people, while her police
enumerators guessed at the population of
whole districts.
There is no doubt that New York is
having a wonderful growth. People from
every part of this country and from many
other countries are going there. How
they all find ways for making a living is
one of the strange things to which there
is no satisfactory answer. Thousands Of
them are crowded together in narrow lit
tie rooms in the tenement districts. The
most thickly inhabited block in the city
contains 1881 people. II is bounded by
Sixty-frst and Sixty-second streets and
Tenth and Eleventh avenues. The most
populous block in Chicago has about $500
inhabitants.
The reason the census in New York was
taken so thoroughly is said to be that
the enumerators were exceptionally con-
scientious and intelligent. Not only that,
but the people seemed to take a pride in
helping the enumerators in getting the
names of all the citizens. Hundreds of
people who were in other countries took
the trouble to send for blanks, fill them
out and return them to the census super
visors of their respective districts. There
were very few cities in which so much
local pride was shown.
In this city for instance, some of the
leading citizens did not seem to care to
put themselves to any trouble to see that
the enumeration was a complete one. The
supervisor of the census for this district
had good reason to complain of the in
difference shown by many citizens as 20
whether or not the city made a good
showing in the matter of population.
There are some grounds for thinking that
the number of citizens who were missed
in the enumeration was quite large.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York World Dem) says:
Perhaps on the whole the best maxim
of the late Coils P. Huntington was:
E" Don't watch the clock
mo matter how hard a man NAV
work, no matter how prompt and dill
gent he may be, success is not for him if
he makes of his labor task. And the
fact that most men do make a task of
their labor is the explanation of the vast
preponderance of partial and complete
failures. How often is a mans success
due fully as much to the neglect and
carelessness and incapacity of his fell
low-workers as to his own assiduity and
intelligent PERSISTENCE"
Speaking of the proposed new line of
steamers from Philadelphia to the South.

the complaitn of Philadelphia against the
railroads we are not prepared 10 say,
but II is gratifying TO see that great
city determined to become a more active
competitor for the Grade of the South"
The Fitzgerald Citizen-Leader says: "A

GEN. GRosvENoR's PREDICTION

The reason the country heard nothing
er of the House, for many weeks was
that he was in Europe. He arrived IN
New York on Saturday, and soon after
his arrival he said to a reporter that he
and Senator McComas of Maryland had
figured 1t out on the steamer, on the. way
over, that the election of Mr.. Bryan
would mean the passage of a 16 to free
coinage bill. In the course of his talk
Gen Grosvenor said: Il have concluded
that if Mr.. Bryan were elected he could
call Congress together and Immediately
introduce bill authorizing the free coin
age of silver at the ratio of Is to /, and
it would pass the Senate by majority of
two"
This is very remarkable statement
for so high an authority to make. What
has become of all of the statements to
the effect that the gold standard was safe
for at least six years that were so freely
made by Republicans at the time that
the gold standard bill was pending in Con-
gress? According TO this statement of
Gen. Grosvenor there was no truth nor
sincerity in those statements.
The truth is, the Republicans are get
ting alarmed at the political outlook, and
are trying 10 scare the people into the be-
lief that they must elect Mr.. Mckinley
If they want to prevent the opening of the
mints TO the free coinage of silver. 1t is
doubtful If any of the Republican leaders
believe that free silver bill could be got
through Congress in the next four years,
even if a Democratic House as well as
Mr.. Bryan should be elected. We have
pointed out a number of times that The
majority of the Kansas City Convention
was against forcing the silver issue into
prominence, believing that that issue was
practically settled. A Democratic House
would. in all probability, take about the
view of the silver question that was taken
by the Kansas City Convention
The two things which are worrying the
Republican managers are that the peo-
pie win not accept the silver issue as the
paramount one, and the rich Republicans
and the trusts seem to be inclined not
to contribute literally TO the Republican
campaign fund. 1t is not to be wondered
at, therefore, that they are trying to make
the people believe there is danger of sill
yer monometallism.
