New Directory.
ST Paul, June 2.-Approximate fig.
ures Of the total number of names in
the forthcoming forty-fourth annual
city directory shows that the popula-
ton of the city is now about 226,048.
The increase during the past year has
been almost phenomenal Over 5000
names have been added to the direc-
tory over the 117,564 in the 1907 di-
rectory, which means that about 10,-
900 people have been added to the
city's population.
The gain in population was 5 per
cent for the two years previously to
1907. It was over that last year, and
this year the indications are that the
growth has been still greater, an in
crease which few cities are able to
maintain.

in the stability of our Institutions, in
the sanity of the people and in their

prosperity. We must take account of
progress in education; the dissemina-

the uplifting power of the myriad eff

future in this land of opportunity, of
educational privileges so eagerly
seized, of moral influences so wide
spread and effective, is to despair of
humanity itself. Here, progress Is
the child of aspiration welded to
common sense. Let us dismiss vague
alarms and go forward with calm

Turns Down Proposal to Inter.

BECKHAM PLAYING WITH FIRE

Frankfort, Ky, Feb. 22.-(Spe-
cialO-In a letter TO Governor Brad
ley Governor Beckhan proposed that
they agree to have just formal vote
for senator taken until the county
unit bill is disposed of. Bradley re-
iected the proposition, and declares
that Beckham is making a grand
stand play for political purposes. He
says even If he made such an agree
ment it would not be binding on the
legislature.
1t can not be seen how Beckham's
plan would facilitate matters in re-
gard to the county unit bill. The
vote on senator has to be taken each
day, anyhow, and it consumes just SO
much time, and there is no connection
between the two. except such as the
legislators THEMSELVES make.
