Strangely enough the United States
census shows both races In full flight
from the country to the city with the
whites slightly leading. Note this item
of that report: The white population
of 1890 cities increased 27.6 per cent.
between 1890 and 1900 and 46.6 per
cent between 1900 and 1910. Similar
rates OF increase for the urban me-
groes are 1913 per cent in the decade
1890 to 1900 and 30.5 per cent. In the
decade 1900 to 1910. For the rural
sections of 1890 the rate of Increase
for the white population was 1871 be-
tween 1890 and 1900, and 173 be-
tween 1900 and 1910 The increase OF
the negroes in the same rural sections
was IT'S between 1890 and 1900 and
S3 between 1900 and 1910. A COM
parison of these rates of increase
brings out clearly the cityward trend
for both races. but shows 1t to be even
greater for whites than for negroes
The rate of increase for the urban
whites advanced from 27.6 to 46.6 or
difference of 19 per cent, while the
rate for the urban negroes advanced
from 23.2 to 3O.5, or a difference OF
~ per cent The rate of increase IN
the rural sections was less for both
races in the decade ending In 1911
than for that ending in 1900, but the
decline in the rate of increase was
very much greater for the negroes
than for the whites. For the whites
the change was from 1871 per cent. in
the first decade to 17.S in the last ten
years, a difference of IA per cent.
For the negroes the change was from
17.5 per cent. to S.3 per cent, dlf'
ference of 80 per cent. Commencing
on the foregoing features OF the CEN
sus the Globe-Democrat says:
In the country as a whole, the cities
in the south are growing faster than
the farming regions. 1t may be said
too, that the relative growth oil the
two races in the south is pretty well
maintained throughout the north ana
west also. All over the country the
white lead over the black race Is
lengthening. While there is higher
birth rate among the blacks than
among the whites, the death rate Is
also much higher. Then, too, the In
crease from immigration is all or the
side of the whites. The negroes nave
no foreign country to draw on to In
crease their numbers. Relatively to
the other element of the people the
blacks must continue to decrease. al
though their actual numbers will keep
on growing.
The south's concern on account OF
the presence of so many negroes In
its states is needless. The proper
ton of the negroes is steadily de-
clining. The lament will eventually
take a new tack. There will not be
enough negroes to do the work which
they have been doing hitherto. Al
ready there is a complaint in some
quarters in the south that there are
not enough laborers to meet the de-
mand. White immigrants do not go
to the south in anything like the num-
ber that they do to the rest OF the
country, and consequently the greater
part of the hard manual labor must
be performed by the blacks. Some OF
the southern papers are predicting
that a time may come in their region
when Chinese will have to be i'm
ported to do work which the negroes
had performed since the beginning OF
things.

Throttle envy, then drag its worth
less corpse from out of your heart;
find for it grave and dig it so deep
and bury 1t so surely that there will
be for 1t no resurrection. Envy curses
him in whose heart 1t finds home in
which to rankle and defile and befoul
with Its poison. Listen at this advice
and description, and don't be envi-
GUS: The envious person is in pain
upon all occasions which ought to give
him pleasure. The relish of his life is
lost and the objects which administer
the highest satisfaction to those who
are exempt from this passion give the
quickest pangs to persons who are
subject to it. All the perfections of
their fellow creatures are odious."

A bulletin, just issued from the
census bureau, shows that:
OF the whole number, 262,72O of
farms reported in 1910 in Alabama
there were 52,347, or fifty-eight per
cent, operated by white farmers. and
l1O,373, or AZ per cent, by negro and
other non-white farmers, as compared
with a total of 223,220 in 1900, of
which 129,137, or 5S per cent, were
conducted by white farmers and 94,-
OS3, or AZ per cent, by negro and
other non-white. The increase in the
number of farms of white farmers dur
ing the decade amounted to 23,21O and
in the number of farms of negro and
other non-white farmers to 1920.
The principal point to keep in mind
in regard to these figures is that the
colored people in Alabama have
bought over 5000 additional farms
during the past ten years, while the
white people have bought $4,000 addi-
tional farms When It is kept in mind
that the colored people of Alabama
are only about 45 per cent. of the
whole population, this is not bad
showing by any means. Indeed, 1t is
4 most interesting ana euCouIa a6ihS
showing New York Age.
| 1t is noted that the negro Is not
maintaining his own on the farms of
the south During the last decade
the white people living in the dis
tricts and communities increased 13
per cent, while the negroes living in
the same did not increase but six per
cent. The figures on their face are
most discouraging for the negro, but
do not appear so formidable when the
facts are explained. In the first place
the negro has received no accretions
to his numbers except by excess OF
births over deaths, while the white
population is being constantly In
creased by immigration. In fact, the
movement to Florida and Texas has
been most notable. Whether this
immigration will reduce the increase
of the native population of the south
| to equality with the negro is not
known exactly. Though it is believed
| that such is the fact.-Durham Re-

SOMETHING FOR NOTHING.

All through life the great struggle
of mankind has been, and will ever
continue to be. to get something fol-
nothing. People will break their necks
over each other in order to accom-
plish the feat of getting something
free.
Not long since a department store
in Baltimore gave out on its opening
day hair receivers. Ten thousand
men, women and children it is alleged,
went to that opening in order to get a
hair-receiver and in the throng were
baldheaded men, women with wigs and
infants.
Along this line is the race pell-mell
every Saturday to the games at the
Naval Academy. The games are free,
Uncle Sam cannot charge admission
TO football game or track meet, or to
any other sport. Almost every man
in town will go to that game if he
loses his job by going. Indeed on a
Saturday afternoon it is impossible to
get a man or boy to work at all, al
though they know they will be we'll
paid for so doing.
An evidence of this last Saturday is
forcible example. The Colonial
Theatre management had to forego the
matinee performance of good COM
edy and lose over 5000 because there
were not enough stage hands to handle
the scenery. Only two men and boy
could be found in all Annapolis who
were willing to work at shifting
scenery. although the theatre manager
pays promptly and well. "A great
town, said the theatre manager.
"What a town." exclaimed the show
manager, who left in disgust and
probably took in the football game
himself. Men and boys will not work
when they can go to see a football
game free. Money is no object to our
Annapolis male contingent when
sports are on the program. But you
may bet your last dollar if they had to
pay to see the sports, they would not
go.
