The Springfield (Mass) Republican pub
fishes statistics showing the growth of pop
ulation in that city and ten cities and
towns served by its electric railway system
In one decade. The population of this ter
ritory increased from 1850 in 1890 to 1884,
CAB in 1900 This is not remarkable, but the
Republican points out that while the pop

INF 1890 The Republican says:
Nor has this traffic been gained IN anv
extent at the expense OF the steam roads
1t is an almost absolutely new Creation
1t is the product of the electric line and not
except TO small extent. the substitute of
what used to proceed in steam cars wae-
ons and on foot. These towns and cities
have been knit together as one large CITY
by the electric road. which has and still is
enecting a social and commercial CONSOLE
dation such as was impossible of realiza
tion prior to the appearance of the new
motive power applied to street RAILWAYS
While the actual residence ponula
ton of this city increased only about 40
per cent. in the ten years from 1892 70 1oo9
the street-railway traffic indicates an Of
fective increase of many times that ratio.
This has an interesting local application
The interurban lines entering this city have
not been in operation long enough to make
comparisons of populations and traffic pos
sible. but there is reason to believe that
the results here will be similar to those
noted above. Electric railway lines start
ing from common center. traversing new
territory and connecting many cities and
towns, with cars running at frequent in
tervals, create a new business of ,be,r
own. The census of 1910 and the traffic re-
ports of the interurban lines entering this
city at that date. compared with the pres
ent, Will show some surprising results.

A. G. Lee, of Denton, Tex. Has q
Proposition That Is Staggering.

Mayor Bookwalter returned from French
Lick Springs yesterday full Of energy.
He found his desk covered with mail and
notes on official business. The mayor was
feeling like an official Hercules ready for
one of the seven labors. Reaching into
a stack of letters he seized one which bore
the postmark of Denton, Tex. 1t looked
interesting. so the mayor opened 1t. AS he
read his eyes buiged and his breath came
quickly for this is what he found:
philanthropy. Nov. Z. 1909.
Mayor, Indianapolis, Ind.
Dear Sir-I am going to build two
philanthropic institutions, the Information
al Political Specialists School and the
Worlds Diathetic Institute and / want
to locate them in a healthy city and one
where the people are full of energy and
are compactly united on things that are
to forward the interests Of the place.
There will be nothing about neither
the International Political Specialists
School nor the Worlds Diathetic Institute
that patriot or moralist could object to;
contrariwise they should be very desir-
able anywhere. / wifi ask for no bonus.
l aim TO spend a billion dollars philan-
thropically on and through the Interna-
Diathetic Institute. These institutions
will give worldwide distinction to the
place they are located In. Nor il Will not
be because of the fabulous expenditure to
Political Specialists School and the
Worlds Diathetic Institute that will cause
them TO distinguish the place. but because
there will be no other institution like
either of them In the world. Please furn-
ish me with what information you can in
regard to the healthfuness. etc, of In
dianapolis. Address me at Denton, Tex.
Yours Truly, A. q. Lee
If the letter had been signed by j. p.
Morgan or John ID. Rockefeller the mayor
would have felt relieved. But A @. Lee
was a new name in the list OF billionaires
and the mayor dropped the letter. He ex-
pressed JOY that no bonus was asked for
a bonus for an enterprise of that kind
could hardly be measured by the city 5
tax duplicate.
A diathetic institute would be exclusive
1t would be for the study of isposing
conditions and hal bits of the body: for par
ticularly the constitutional predisposition
of men and women, their mental tenden-
cies. their morbid habits. The Political
Specialists School might find. the mayor
thinks, prolific soil In the capital of the
State of Indiana, which is the pivotal
State in national politics. But what
shocked the mayor most the billion
dollar proposition without the aid of a
bonus.
The mayor answered Mr.. Lee, telling him
that indianapolis offered every inducement
in health, morality and social progress
that would sustain the phllanthropic con-
Germs Mr.. Lee Is organizing The mayor
assumes that Mr. Lee has a dathesis of
philanthropic character.
