The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1906-03-15

In 1903, the last figures available.
England had over 100000 births.
That represents net Increase of pop
u.ation of 500,00O-that is to say, ten
times the figures of France. From a
political sense greater Importance at
taches to the tables of Germany.
The land of the Kaiser has increased
100000 inhabitants, so that in two
years she could people Alsace-Lor-
raine with new population. The
enormous progress made by Germany
in the numbers of her people stands
revealed when one takes a general
look at the statistics for the last so
years.
In 1850 France and Germany had
population that was practically equal,
say 100000. Today one is 5000, 900
or 39,000,00O, the other is 6OOOO,O 900.
These are very significant figures, up
on which it is impossible not to rumi-
nate. This difference in population ac-
counts for great deal. 1t explains
the necessity of a German expansion
the restless desire for fresh fields and
pastures new. 1t explains also the
other side of the shield-the recent
"frousse" this country had when the
war lord lifted up his sword in the
direction of the Vosges.
1t is obvious that France can never
become real colonizing power with a
new population" that is diminishing.
These things are well understood by
enlightened public opinion here, but,
unfortunately, no one has been able
to suggest a scientific remedy. NJ
Plot, the well-known Senator, labors
in season and out of season preaching
the gospel of large families, but no
one pays attention except to send the
good man shower of comic cards at
the New Year. But his remedies, such
as they are--bonuses for the fathers
of large families and medals for the
mothers-can but touch the fringe of
the question. The real reason is not
economic, though of course the divi-
sion of property among the children
under French law has something to do
with it; it goes much deeper than that.
Civilization-if that is the right
name for it-or at least the knowledge
of good and evil, has reached point
in France unattained by any other ma
ton. Doctrines touching upon the
limitation of population are openely
discussed and the child is not brought
into the world unless there is at least
a pewter spoon in it's mouth. 1t is
the excess of thrift, the overcare for
the morrow that is the secret Of the
situation.

Will Begin Work April 1.

1t is generally understood that If
weather conditions are favorable, that
work on the extension of the Great
Northern passenger station will he
started by April 1. AS soon as the
ground thaws or possibly before, work
on the new freight depot will be start
ed. AS yet there has been no active
preparations made for the improve
ments, but the officials are confident
that with favorable spring, that the
contemplated Improvements in both
yards and buildings will be under way
early in the season and completed be-
fore fall.

ABOUT ENGLISH DRUMMERS.
How Their Comfort Is Looked After
at the Hotels.

(From The Louisville Courier-Journal.)
Travelling men in England have
special dining rooms, special rates
and special lots of things" said E. K.
Simmons. of Manchester, England.
When you 60 into the lobby of an
English hotel you may be surprised
to find great open fire burning in
one end of the room. Great comfort
able chairs will be found about the
lobby, and you need not exclaim If you
see travelling statesmen smoking long
pipes and reposing their stockinged
feet upon large footstools. Empty
shoes can be found in many portions
of the room.
'The English lobby is parlor or
sitting room. a place Of comfort, and
In no instance bears the stiff, vanish
ed, emblazoned appearance of your
American hostelries. When you 20 10
the dining room you may be surprised
to hear the clerk ask II you are trav-

into . simply but homely furnished

Cannot Keep Rooms Clean.

There seems to be little hope that
the waiting rooms Of the Great North
ern in Grand Forks can be kept clean
and presentable. The officials have at
tempted to make the waiting rooms
more inhabitable. but with little sue
cess. The class of traffic which finds
its way through here and the enor-
nous volume. renders it a hopeless
task. The laborers and lumber Jacks
would shortly make filthy place of a
palace.

Interesting Meeting.

Last evening at the First Presby-
terrain church the third talk in the
series on practical christianity was
given by Miss Elizabeth Abbott on the
kind of literature to be read in the
Christian home. Miss Abbott gave a
very instructive talk, pointing out the
wholesome and instructive as we'll as
the entertaining books which might
be read with profit. The series are
proving an immense success, the
church being crowded for each even
ing's program. The special music was
furnished by Mrs. Becker.
