The record of the past decade
proves this tremendous force at work.
Eastern America, within the area
used In this comparison, had but sew
en- million OF population in 1910. 1t
grew form seven millions to fifty-five
millions in a century, or at the rate
OF less than twenty-five per cent.
average increase per decade. Dur
ing the last decade, Pacific America
from the Rocky Mountains to the
Coast-grew at the rate of sixty-five
per cent as a whole. The state OF
Washington increased 100 per cent.
and the city of Seattle. 1874 per cent.
to her numbers. In other words.
without the Panama Canal, Pacific
America is increasing it's population
at nearly three times the average rate
of Eastern America, while the State
of Washington is growing at five
times and the city of Seattle nearly
eight times the rate by which Eas-
tern America increased from seven
millions to fifty-five millions in a
century.
1.-THE Panama Canal opens a new
Pacific America to Western Europe
with ten times the open opportunities
of Eastern America. With the Call
of the West" still attracting from the
Central and Eastern portions of our
ow ncountry, the combined American
and direct European immigration bids
fair accelerate our already marvellous
rate OF growth.
"The million and quarter OF
Washington population OF to-day will
be five to eight millions twenty-five
years hence, unless all signs fail. If
Seattle maintains her present pro-
portion OF one-fourth of the state po-
pulation-and the tendency is for the
commercial metropolis percentage to
increase rather than decrease-that
will mean million and quarter
to two million Of population in Seattle
a uuarter-century hence.

Tor stamping it out.
Opposition to these dances has
grown SO strong in Tennessee that
last Sunday every Catholic priest in
that state read proclamation to tine
congregations that any member of
that church found guilty of indulging
III these dances will be disbarred from
the church.
The Protestant ministers in that
state are also waging war in Memphis,
Nashville, Chattanooga and other
places IN the state, but it is said they
cannot make the demand that the
Catholics can but are working hard
to put an end to the dances.
1t will also be noted that the fight
IS Oh IN Boston, and the mayor of that
city has been the instigator of city
ordinance, which was passed. prohib-
ltlng these dances in the city of Bos-
ton.
Just what action the committee here
Will take is not yet known but it is
learned the members will do every
thing IN their power to stamp it out
and doubtless will receive the COOP.
