| In commenting upon these "appall-
| ing statistics the Paris CroiX, an i'm
portant Ultramontane daily, attributes
this decay in population to the efforts
that are being made by leading French
statesmen and publicists to drive
Christianity out OF France. This is i'm
cent editorial:
"The excess of births over deaths
which has been dwindling for several
years has at last been succeeded by an
excess of deaths over births which
reaches the enormous number of 1890.
France which already is beset by so
many misfortunes, is now actually In
danger of perishing altogether, from
the fact that the very sources of her
life have become contaminated. Shall
we live to see a. reaction? 1t Is high
time for one But in order to obtain
any change our rulers must adopt
methods exactly opposite to those
which they are now pursuing, that is,
they must rechristianiZe France"
The idea that small families, or the
absence of any children at all in a
household results from irreligion or

ly propounded by this writer as a
provable act The places where the
Catholic faith is adhered to are the
places where the general population is
most prolific. we are told. The excess
of births over deaths is to be found in
the departments where the church still
reigns supreme. After naming eleven
departments where this excess ranges
from 1903 to SO this writer observes:
with scarcely an exception these.
are the departments in which Cath
olicism reclons the greatest number
of faithful adherents. With regard to
those sections where the relative figure
of the excess of deaths over births, in
proportion to the sum of the popula-
ton, is highest. an exactly opposite
condition of things is to be found
The writer proceeds to show from
the Officie that depopulation and di-
vorce are found increasing side by
side; and both are most prevalent IN
those parts of France where Catholic
iSm has lost its power. He concludes
as follows:
1sWe are, therefore forced to the con-
clusion that the depopulation of
France is the direct result of its de-
christianization. If once the sacred re-
strictions of a religion founded on self
sacrifice be thrown aside nothing is
left to direct the heart of man but
egotism. cowardice. self-interest, and
an sunbridled passion for gain. in view
Of the present state of things we are
compelled to ask, shall we permit our
country to die"

seareaation of Vice.

| Chicago is being stirred by the So
| cial evil problem, on which subject the
following was written to the Chicago
j Record-Herald by M. NJ Parkhurt,
president and superintendent of the
Citizens League:
The absence of the spirit and life of
Jesus Christ in the churches makes
the red light district" a possibility.
Segregation of vice. is the wall of
despair from the gospel standpoint.
When love and faith of Jesus is shown
by the church people as He showed by
His conduct; when the church feels
that it is easier to save woman
that is a sinner" than it Is to save
proud pharisee or a skeptic saducee;
when the church-going people will
make the same moral standard for
man that they Now make for wom-
an; when churcheoing women will stop
dancing with men who go from their
company to the red light district"
then. and not till then. will the red
light district" disappear. If they do
not know, it is their duty to find out
The duty of the public is to stop the
open disreputable. vile business by
making both men and women prosti-
tutes criminals before the law, and
then enforce the law. AS long as
good moral men elect officials who
patronize houses of i'll fame there will
be no relief from the curse of the So
cial evil.
That such men are now elected to
office is well known, but il they get
the nomination of their political party
the Christion and moral men of the
party vote for them all the same. How
good men can vote for moral lepers
and expect such lepers to keep the city
morally clean is unaccountable. 1t is
all bosh to say that the whole cannot
be kept clean.
Every woman living by public pros
titution Should be compelled to earn
an honest living either outside or in
side of a public workhouse, and every
man that patronizes bawdy house
should be sent to the bridewel to
break stone until he will bride his
passions
Until this can be done let ministers
and church members make the life
and spirit of Jesus their standard ana
make no provision for the flesh to full
fiji the lusts thereof by segregation

ReIiaion and Population.

In recent number of The Literary
Digest was given a comparison be-
tween the fluctuations of population in
France and England severally. fuller
account of this matter is to be found
in the Officiel (Paris), the govern
mental gazette of the French Republic
Here the comparison is extended TO
the principal countries of Europe as is
shown in the following diagram, in
which the excess of the birth-rate over
the death-rate is given with view to
showing the annual increase or de-
crease of the population:

where he has been for the past 80 days
and during which time he has been

Record Shows a Tremendous
Shrinkage In American Con-
sumption Since October.
LITTLE METAL ACCUMULATED
Still Good Demand for IL Abroad
Another Buying Movement
Anticipated
pollock special wirc)

Boston, April 1.-THE U. S. exports of
copper during the past six months
amount to 4O3,676.s76 pounds. or an
average quantity per month Of 6121s,-
146 pounds. Estimating the recent
production of this country at about the
rate of 100000 pounds per annum. we
see that the shipments abroad during
the last six months are equivalent to
more than the total United States out
put for that period based on above
items.
For the six months ending March 3d.
1907. the exports OF copper from this
country were 2O2,672,96O pounds, or at
the rate of $50 .77S, 800 pounds per month
This Is nearly one half less than that
for the past six months. The figures
carry convincing proof of the tremend-
GUS shrinkage in American consump-
ton since last October But the favor
able feature of this exhibit is the fact
that this country is not confronted
with the enormous accumulation eX-
listing last fail There is a moderate
surplus Of the copper metal here yet,
but the great bulk formerly available
has been shipped out of the country
and there is but little probability of
II coming back again while the price
remains under 10 cents.
Europe can be counted on to take an
other 400.000.000 pounds during the
next six months if the price is low
enough to suit foreign buyers. Ac-
tual requirements did not call for such
heavy shipments as has left the coun-
try lately. but European buyers are
willing to run the risk of stocking up
freely at around IL cents. If they have
an over-supply, they can make arrange
ments for carrying 1t until 1t is worked
up in the course of trade. Foreign
buyers are watching their opportunity
to get another heavy slice of Amerf-
can production when they succeed in
hammering the price down low enough.
A fresh buying movement may take
place at any time as the big operators
are said to be laying their wires to
make another scoop as soon as they
find that they have weakened holders
to let go at their level.
