CENSUS RESULTS

As an earnest advocate OF the TAX
ing OF a municipal census here, we
wish TO express our satisfaction with
the result Of same. While the returns
dono meet theexpectationso OF every
one as 10 our population, yet they
are creditable enough TO be crafty
ing TO all, and we doubt not that
our people are more than pleased at
the increase of over twenty per cent
since the last census was taken.
Briefly analysed the figures show
that our white population has in
creased largely, while the colored has
decreased some, caused by n large
exodus of negroes to the brick yards
and mines OF the North The increase
is made up of good class of white
mechanics and working men with
families, who have come TO live per-
manently among us. 1t is a great
encouragement to those who have
manifested faith in the city's future
by investing their money here to
witness this healthy growth of popu.
lation, and while fredericksburg NAV
never become large city, yet there
Is no reason why she shouldn't soon
arrive at the dignity of Virginia
city OF the first-class, which means a
city of ten thousand population.
Just at this time this newspaper de
sires to repeat its former suggestion
that some time before the next gov
eminent census the City Council take
the necessary legal steps looking to
an incorporation as part OF the city
oil adjacent territory in Spotsylvania
county, such as that lying next to
the Fair Grounds, which has been
divided into lots and on which there
is quite n settlement. There is other
territory besides, but we mention
this merely asan illustration of what
might be added. We don't believe
the county would object. since what
helps fredericksburg helps her. and
vice versa. The matter is. at least.
worthy of consideration. We nope
to see it taken up.

HAVE THE TIMES MAILED TO YOU
SUNDAY. JUNE 80. 1907.
The New York Law.

The State of New York is going
farther in the direction of exhaust
ing its sovereign powers of corpora
ton control and regulation than any
other State has gone, and vastly far
ther than the Federal Government
has yet gone. Governor Hughes has
named his commissions, and there is
going to be little further delay
about getting down TO business and
trying out the system.
Seemingly, this New York law
ought TO make possible a pretty
satisfactory determination of the
possibilities of State regulation.
The advocates of liberalization have
long urged that the States will not
use the. powers they possess; but in
view of what the States have been
doing lately that argument is hardly
TO be employed in future.
