VIYASHINGTON-T indications be-
w ing that the census will show the
population of the United States to he
over 90,000,O00, it seems assured that
the republic contains more than half
of the inhabitants of the New World.
It is quite probable that all of the re-
naming countries of this hemisphere
have fewer than 100000 inhabi-
tants.
That point can never be settled def
nitely until conditions change radi-
cally in many extensive regions OF
Latin America. Now most of the
states south Of Mexico and north of
the Argentine either make farce of
their census taking or else do not at
tempt it at any time.
Recent estimates, partly based upon
census records, which have been
made in South America and Central
America, indicate that there are about
100000 people living between the
Rio Grande and Cape Horn, including
the West Indies. Canada has per-
haps 100000, allowing for rapid
growth since the census of 1901, and
Newfoundland adds less than 100000.
Unless the estimates, which seem
most intelligently made, are very wide
of the mark in several countri les

act statistics of population, the total

Death and accident have been
caused by street cars and other vehi'

says. ION the other hand, children

Ball playing on the streets" he
continued, has resulted in complaints
on account of noises and broken win
dows. The same hue and cry is
raised when vacant lots are used for
baseball and other games. At times,
in certain localities, large and noisy
gatherings are attracted"

IA around, congress sidesteps, smoth-
ers or overrides all propositions which
would embark the government in the
business of road building. The logic
and Importance in the outcry for
"goodroads" is universally admitted;
but everybody's business comes peril
ously near having nobody's attention.
Some communities, townships, coun-
ties and few states have made more
or less real progress towards improv-
ing the highways locally. Where the
states take hand beginning is made
towards obtaining through routes"
But, despite all that has been said for
a revival of road building, notwith-

cations of all partisan shades, the
movement as yet has no central Or
ganization which presses the work

Representative Anthony of Kansas
introduced bill in the house last win
ter for the construction of military
highway between Fort Leavenworth
and Fort Riley, 100 miles, by convicts
in the two federal penitentiaries at
Fort Leavenworth. The bill was lost
after a debate that developed into a
general discussion of the good roads

The measure had the Endorsement OF
President Taft, the chief OF staff OF

eral. General ]. Franklin Bell, then
chief of staff, stated in letter to Rep
resentative Anthony that the proposed
road would unquestionably be OF
great military value and convenience.
Farmers of many townships through
which the proposed road would run
offered to supply all the rock and
other material to be used in its con
structiOn.
Like others of it's kind, this meas
ure was wrecked upon constitutions

tended that General Bell did not claim
the road to be military necessity
and that, if not done for this purpose
the government could not build it, be

required to meet military necessities

Brazil, much the largest country OF
South America, is the most populous
IL the Western Hemisphere, except
the United States. 1t is probable that
a full and careful enumeration OF the

900 of them.
Mexico, only about rs per cent OF

safely established in third place
among all the nations of the New

eign commerce is larger in every way.
Argentina and Canada are alike also,

surance of continued swift expansion
that they may overtake and pass Mex

try which Diaz makes his footstool.
