INCREASE OF WHITES and
NEGROES.

One of the recent statements from
the census bureau treats Of the rela-
live increase OF the white and black
races in the continental United States
and these figures show that unless a
great change comes there Is no rea-
son to fear future numerical super
iUrity of the blacks. Indeed II the
percentage of births continues as In
the last decade the negro will become
less and less of u factor in the census
of the nation
Divided on the color line the CEN
sus shows that of the cOuntry's popu-
lation, S7,732 ,6ST or 500 per cent are
white; 9,S2S,29 or 1917 per cent,
negro and all other persons including
indians, Chinese and Japanese. AL

of the negro in the past decade has
been about one million, or a percent
age increase OF ll3 as opposed to a
percentage lntItdSt Dl Tue WHITES VI
22.3. The whites show an increase
in grain from 1900 to 1910 over the
Increase from 1890 to 1900 while the
contrary Is true OF the black race,
which shows lessened increase
when the two decades are compared
OF large portion of the white in
crease is due to immigration from
which the black race gets practically
no assistance, but the census bureau
by careful gathering of figures has
been able to estimate that exclusive
of the addition made by immigration
the increase of whites has been about
10 per cent as compared with the
ll.3 per cent of the black race.
1t is pointed out that II does not
naturally follow from these figures
that the birthratc Is greater among the
whites than among the blacks as there
is very great death rate for the
latter because of infant mortality
among the negroes, particularly In
the southern States.

some CAMPAIGN LESSONS.

The first defeat of the Republican
party after the war occurred in the
election of 1874, and it followed the
triumphant election of Grant over the
combined forces of Liberal Republic
cans and Democrats in 1872, when the
Republicans carried all but seven
States in the Union, with 2SG of the
1852 electoral votes.
1t is true that the panic of 1873 and
the numerous political scandals in
national and State affairs brought
| about the dissatisfaction and unrest
that ended In the defeat of the party,
but back of all was the antagonism to
| the national administration. which
was blamed for political conditions
generally.
The Republicans felt secure in theiI
issue of the Southern question, and
instead Of meeting the issues that
were raised by their failure to salts
Fly. the country they raised the cry of
fear of domination by the South, and
urged the patriotism of the party dur
| ing the war in order TO hold the Re
publican States in line.
The vote was Il revelation to the
| party leaders in Washington They
were told that the people were dis
satisfied. and that defeat threatened
them, but they continued to point with
pride to the record of the past, and
| ignored the conditions that confront
ed them in that campaign. The Lib
erals who were disguised with the
corruption that existed In public life,
and the obvious influence of the big
business interests in party affairs,
were referred to as "bOters," and as
assistant Democrats" Altogether
the situation afforded most striking
parallel to the campaign of 1910.
But in the election the Republican
leaders received great shock. The
| country elected a House In which the
| anu
the two-thirds Republican majority in
the Senate was greatly reduced.
Pennsylvania went Democratic,
Ohio and Indiana elected Democratic
state officers and even Massachusetts
elected Il Democratic governor.
In 1910 Ohio. Massachusetts and In
diana elected Democratic governors
and the Democrats were given a ma
jOrity In the House of sixty-eight, or
within two of the majority given them
In 1874.
In 1908 1t appeared that the Re-
publicans had nothing to fear from
the Democrats. In 1872 the party APP
peared to be so safely ntrenched as
to insure its domination In the coun-
try for years to come. But in 1874
the party was overwhelmingly defeat
ed. Just as 1t was In 1910. The cleo
| ton of 1874 pointed the way to the
defeat In the national election OF
1876. which was averted only by cir
cumstances that have stood as a ma
tional scandal since.
The lesson of the two campaigns,
occurring more than third of a CEN
fury apart. is most interesting. II
shows that no party ever becomes so
strong that 1t can AFFORD to defy pub
lie sentiment or offend the public
sentiment. It shows, also, that the
greatest danger that may confront a
political party is for Its leaders to
feel that there is no possibility of the
party's defeat
