WHERE'S NEWLANDS.

The National Irrigation Congress,
just closed at Colorado Springs, Col
orado, passed the following resolu-
ton, Congressman Newlands of New
ada, the Congress never mentioned,
either directly or indirectly. How
is it ? The resolution follows
The grateful acknowledgment of
this Congress is due to Theodore
Roosevelt, President of the United
States, for his invaluable assistance
in the cause Of irrigation His mes
sage to Congress in December, 1900,
marked the beginning of new epoch
in the history not only of the arid
west but also of that of the whole
nation. Without his powerful aid and
that Of his administration il would
not have been possible to secure the
passage of that great act which will
inaugurate and put into effective
motion the national irrigation policy
for which we have been striving 50
long. Great as his administration
may be, we believe that none Of his
achievements will rebound more to
the greatness of our people and the
glory of our country than will.the
passage of the national irrigation
act, We send him our greetings and
give him our assurances Of our most
sincere respect and admiration.

HIS CLAIMS.

Mr. Newlands' claim that he was
called up to the White House by Pres
ident Roosevelt to give the president
some idea of the importance Of con
gressional legislation for conservation
of the waters of the arid regions has
been SO completely refuted that his
organs have ceased to try to palm
that absurd nonsense on the people.
In 1894 he claimed that he was the
first to advise Cleveland to suppress
the strike of the railroad employees
by the military power of the govern
mcnt, and at that time he claimed
great credit for suggesting the idea
to suppress the trade unions by the
military,

THE RATE OF INCREASE
HOW SECTIONS OF THE CoUN-
 TRY GROW.
The South for the First Time Shows a Greater Per Cent of Gain Than Does the
 North.

Washington, Jan. 13.-The Director of the Census announces today the percent age of increase of population in different parts of the country, showing for the last decade a rapid decrease from previ- ous rate of growth of population in the West. a less marked but decided de- crease in the North and a slight increase in the South For the first time in the history of this country the population of the South has increased somewhat more rapidly than that of the North. The East geographically is included in the term North. The official announcement divides the country as follows:
 West. from the Pacific to the eastern boundary of Montana, Wyoming, Colo rado and New Mexico; North and South. the respective lines of a line formed by the Potomac and Ohio Rivers and the southern boundaries of Missouri and Kansas.
 The percentage of increase from 1860 to 1880 was 6l9 in the North; 4S.4 in the South and 1856 in the West. while in the last twenty years. lSSO-l9O0, it was s.7 in the North; 4s.5 in the South and
 Prior to the Civil War the Northern States nearly doubled in population with each twenty years. while to the Southern States the increase of population was only about two-thirds as great
 Since 1850 the rate of growth in both parts of the country has been much less, but while the rate of growth in the North has decreased steadily. that in the South during the twenty years from 1850 to 1880 mas been slightly less. Dur ing the last twenty years there has been no substantial difference in the rate of growth of the two sections. The per cent of the increase of growth of these regions during each of the last two ten @ year periods follows: 1SS0-9O, North A.S; South 2O1; West. 71.3; 1S9o-1s0o North. ls; South. 2.4; West. 31.9.
 St.tes east of the Mississippi River ciasstng Minnesota and Louisiana with the Western States, the result Is large Iy different. It would show the increase eSnS to be: 1SS0-90. North; 2Ol: south lo' IeSo- i9OO. North 19.9; South. l7.7
 When the trans-M ississippi States are omitted. the rate of gro wth in the North is slightly greater than Is that in the South, but the present difference between

In it Lord Rosebery said he hoped that the meeting would aim to secure the unity of common sense Liber- alism, to which he hoped he had contributed by his recent speech at Chesterfield. This was received with expressions of disapproval and the audience almost prevented the conclusion of the reading of the letter.
 Following this episode. Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman began his speech among many interruptions, cheers and encouragements. The speaker said he welcomed Lord Roseb9ry's return to pub lie life and that he had frequently urged him to such a course. but In the next a. strong Liberal party in the House of Commons.
