states now have less than

teen exceed 100000 each. The re-
port also says that hereafter the CEN
sus bureau will make annual estimates
of population, based upon what Is
known as the arithmetical method, up
on the assumption that the annual In
crease for each year since the last
census will be one-tenth Of the de-
cennial increase between the two last
censuses. The bulletin adds: The
country as a whole and most Of the
states and cities are growing with
steadily decreasing per cent of in
crease. AS this condition has obtain
ed in the United States for the last
twenty years, it Is likely to hold good
in the future. Under such conditions
the arithmetical method has been
proved more accurate than any alter
native method. Estimates by this
method, based on the census popula-
ton Of 1880 and 1890, were made for
seventy eight cities, each Of which had
over $4,000 inhabitants in 1900, and
the results compared with the census
count. The estimates gave these cities
a total annual increase Of 407,02S be-
tween 1890 and 1900. The count show
ed an actual average increase Of 4l4,-
1893, or closer than estimates based on
the vote cast or the number Of names
in directory or local census Of school
children.

NEGRO VOTE IN MARYLAND.-Gov-
ernor Warfield has decided to sign the
bill which removes from the ballots
used in Republican counties the party
designation. This is q measure which
will practically disfranchise negroes in
these counties.
1t gives to the supervisors Of elec-
tions the right to arrange the names
of the candidates to suit themselves,
regardless Of the party to which they
belong. Members Of the Reform league
went to Annapolis yesterday to pro-
test against the proposed law. They
made the point that by punching the
names Of Democratic candidates at the
top Of the column every illiterate DEM
ocrat could vote the ticket, whereas the
names Of Republicans, being sand
wiched between Prohibitionists and
Socialists, could not be recognized.
The governors reply was that any
law which would bar out the ignorant
and vicious was a good one. The act
takes in the counties in the black belt
in southern Maryland, those on the
eastern shore. where negroes cut a fig
ure, and a few in western Maryland.
The governor will also sign a bill
providing for jury commissioners In
Prince Georges and st. Mary's coun-
ties who will bar negroes from the
jury box.
