Following the previous preliminary announcements by the census bureau of the aggregate population of all places in the territory of Arizona, as enumerated in the thirteenth census, taken as of April Is. 1910. Director Durand, of the census bureau, de- partment Of commerce and labor, has issued a statement giving additional advance details, of which the more important relate to the territory's ur- ban and rural population. The in- formation was drawn from the ad vance population bulletin for Arizona. prepared under the supervision of William (. Hunt, chief statistician for population in the census bureau.
 The urban territory Of Arizona in lyl0--that is, the cities and incOr- poiated towns Of 2,J00 inhabitants or more-eontained 63,26O inhahit- ants. or 31 per cent of the total population. of which HI ,094 inhabit- ants, or 69 per cent, lived in rural territory. The urban territory, as it existed in l900-that is, the cities and incorporated towns then having 2,50O inhabitants or more-contained l9,- 495 inhabitants, or 15.9 psy cent of the total poulation, while l03,4 ,436 in- habitants, or S4.I per cent, lived in rural territory. There has thus. been a large increase in the proportion of , urban population. For the continent al United States. as a whole, the ur- ban population constituted 46.3 per cent of the total population in 1910 and 40.5 per cent. of the total popu- lation in 1900.
 In 1910, Tucson and Phoenix, the two cities in Arizona having over 10,. ., 000 inhabitants, contributed 119 per cent of the total population of the territory, which was a slight in crease over the proportion in these two cities in 1900, when they com prised the group of places having from 5000 to l0,010 inhabitants each. The largest proportion of the urban population in the territory in 1910 was contained in the cities which had from 5000 to 10000 inhabitants each.
 In all cities and incorporated towns, including those of less than 2,500 inhabitants. there was in 1910 a population of 79,666. or 39 per cent. of the population of the territory. The population of all cities and in corporated towns, as eey existed in 1900, was 2S,504. or 23.I per cent of the population of the territory.

The percentage of ln- crease for the population of the ter ritory during this decade was a little more than one and two-thirds that for the preceding decade. 1S90-1900
