While the population of the country
aS largo has increased about 20 per
.- =, o cent during the
last decade, the
~ three principal GEN.
ters OF population, New York, Chicago
and Philadelphia, have gained "A per
cent. These three American cities of
The hrst class according to recent Of
hcial estimates, have a population
combined of s,4ae, ,474, or nearly 9 per
cent. OF the entire population of the
United States. The trend of the pop
ulation toward the cities is strikingly
shown by a comparison of these fig
ures with the census returns of 1900,
whom the ten leading towns of the
country had an aggregate population
Of so7, ,le7, which was less than per
cent of the total population. Europe
has a population more than five times
a. large ns that of the United States,
out has only five cities of more than
l,0oo, 900 inhabitants, London, Paris,
Berlin, Vienna and St. Petersburg,
whose combined populations are less
than per cent. of that of Europe.
The comparative advantages of urban
residence over rural life are more pro-
nounced In this country than in Eu-
rope, which explains and justifies the
American preference for city life. A
reaction has set in in favor of subur-
ban residence which has been stimu-
lated by excellent transit facilities,
but the rural sections of the conn
sry will not attract many people from
the cities in advance Of improvements
which arc indispensable to health as
we'll as comfort. Public works of this
character have been necessarily con-
dned 20 American cities, and it will
be many years before the rural dis
tricts can afford such internal i'm
provements as are to be found in the
country in many parts Of Europe. In
che meantime, the bulk Of the growth
of the populat ation in the United States
Will be confined to thc,cities and large

put themselves. OF course it suits
your purpose now to complain be-
cause this aid was not extended. but
if they were sincere why had they de-
clined the swift remedy by mandam1s
proceeding which the law gave them!
1t is obvious that no prompt and hnal
decision was wanted and that the slow
and devious route via the Circuit
Court was chosen to serve Interior
ends.
But if the Republican candidate
! from Monroe had any real right to the
seat, why did the Republican manag-
ers themselves propose and agree TO
dismiss his claims? You we'll remem-
her that just before the vote was taken
for u. S. Senator last January, the Re-
publicans proposed to the Democrats
to dismiss all other cases if the Demo-
cratic side would agree to the suspen-
sion of Kidd and Dent. The Monroe
county case was specifically included
in this proposition along with sever
al other cases recognized to ave been
! merely trumped up for sage effect. To
prevent the utter overthrow of lawful
and peaceful government in West Vir-
ginia which the Republicans had
threatened and partially carried into
effect. the Democrats accepted this
proposition. And SO, by the unanl-
NOUS consent of all Republicans in
the LEGISLATURE, the claims" Of the
Republican candidate from Monroe
county were dismissed. Here was sur
rendered the whole of the Republican
contention as to the much talked of
Monroe county outrage" Had the
Republican managers yer been sin
cere in their pretensions, they would
never have moved to kill this case, If,
for no other reason, because to have
thrown overheard q man who had
been really elected would have given
dire offense to the Republicans of this
county. 1t is evident the case had
served the purpose for which it was
proiected-as a preteXt for the false
roll of members-elect certified by a
partisan Secretary of State, the uncon-
stitutional seating of Getzendanner
and Pierson. and the shameless n
revolutionary expulsion Of Kidd until
after a U. S. Senator had been voted
for, a deed which the non-partlsan
West Virginia Bar has described as a
"disgraceful and ~indefensible exhibit
ton of lawleSSness n anarchy.
Having accomplished their purpose,
the originators Of the Republican pre-
tensions as to Monroe county kicked
their own case out.
You have given much labor and sew
eral columns of space to galvanize in
to life these charges which the Repub-
lican members of the Legislature
themselves in effect r%epudiated. In
this | conceive you do my county
great injustice and harm. This is my
reason for claiming for the last time
the courtesy which you have editorial
ly represented that your political op-
ponents may always ~enjoy-the right
to a full hearing in your columns-in
this case amply warranted. | think, by

MAY CAUSE CONFUSION.

The County Seat of Randolph Coun-
ty Not Determined Finally.
Special to the Register.
ELKINS, w. Va, January 25.-A
new and perplexing complication has
arisen in the county seat contest be-
tween Elkins and Beverly.
Register readers will recall that at
the election in November, 1898, a vote
was taken on the relocation CT the
county seat of Randolph county at
Elkins instead of Beverly, where it had
reposed in quiet since March, 1887, and
Elkins received about 100 votes more
than the required three-fifths of all the
votes cast upon the question. The
County Court, by which the result was
to be ascertained, declared that Elkias
had failed to receive thres-ffths of all
the votes cast at the election (about
800 ballots not having been voted on
the question: and had therefore failed.
An appeal was taken to the Circuit
Court, where the decision of the County
Court was reversed and the county seat
declared to be at Elkins. From this
decision an appeal was, taken to the
Supreme Court, in session at Charles
ton, which some time ago affirmed the
judgment of the Circuit Court.
"A ~rehearing Of the case was moved
on January 8, and the Supreme Court
has not acted upon that motion yet.
Yesterday was the date fixed by law
for a regular term of the Circuit Court
for this county, and Judge Holt con-
vened court only TO adjourn the term.
He gave as his reason that Beverly Is
not the county seat Of the county until
the Supreme Court shall have granted
a ~rehearing of the case, and no order
made by his court would be legal.
The question now arises whether any
official act which the law requires 10
be done at the county seat is legal il
done at Beverly. If it should be decld-
ed negatively much confusion will be
caused.

Good Reasons for His Nominal

A Salem Correspondent Notes Many
Good Reasons for His Nominal
tiou.
To the Editor OF the Register.
SALEM, W. Va, January 20.-ln a
recent issue of your paper You make
favorable editorial mention Of the can
didacy Of Hon. Andrew Edmiston for
the g~overnorship. The Edmiston boom
is substantial because it emanates from
the sincere expressions Of the common
people, and is backed by the very best
judgment of cur ablest members Of the
! newspaper fraternity, who see in him
a born leader, a sure winner, and best
tive. Unlike the boomlets of the
chronic candidates who formulate full
some eulogies and in ~meandering ways
seek newspaper n%otoriety by having
their egotistic illusions published. Ed
mission is modest and has permitted his
friends to make candid expressions Of
their preferences without dictation.
Andy, as he is Familiarity called by his
large circle Of friends and acquaint-
ances, is truly a man Of the common
people, and at his threshold no public
or private scandal has ever rested. His
generous impulses have made many
recipients of the unfortunate Glasses
happy, and from their lips on all sides
can be heard expressions Of genuine
gratitude.
Had it not been for Andy's timely
II emphatic protest when a member
of the Legislature. the manipulatOrs OF
the Virginia debt would doubtless have
placed upon IL taxpayers a burden
from which their children and chill
dren's children would have ground. Blu
the damnable scheme which was to be
backed by bribery and all the nefar-
0 u methods known to c~orruptionists
was stamped beneath the iron heel OF
justice and its s%erpentine fangs were
plucked by the courage of the Lewis
county representative.
In matters pertaining to public spirit,
he has no equal in his town. He has
done more than any other man for the
material development of Weston in the
way of the erection of substantial
buildings and otherwise. His money.
CT which he has a fair supply, has al
ways circulated In legitimate channels
and has never been employed for usury
or to distress his fellow man. No man
SSH tIulniuliy point 10 any CT MS acts
and say that he intentionally wronged
him.
Now in view of all these facts, where
can the equal of Edmiston in intelli-
gence. integrity and his many other
sterling qualities be found who is avail
able Is a leader of the Democracy in
our Mountain State? Build the ticket
with good material and put Edmiston
on for a cap sheaf and the tidal ware
