rector of the census at Washington.
The proportiOnate number of mar
riageS in urban communities is small
er than in the country and the city
families, as a rule, are not as large
as those in the country, the greater
part of the urban gains ordinarily
coming from alien immigration and
migration from rural territory.
But immigration was practically
suspended from 1914 until well after
the armistice in November. 1913, and
practically all the aliens who have
left the United States to return to
their native lands were city residents.
The greater proportion of the war cas-
6alties, it is officially stated, was
among city troops. and the bulk of the
deaths in the influenza epide.nics was
in urban communities.
Yet the cities and towns have shown
great gains and actual decreases have
been shown in rural districts. There
fore, the census officials can see but
one explanation for the urban gain
that they come from the rural Sec
tons.

But what of him unknown 70 fame for

Yea. what of him in unknown grave

Shall over him no standard wave, no

Weep not, dear heart, for him who dies

He sleeps beneath more tender skies
than are these skies of thine.
And blossoms tremble DER his head as

The flowers above the unknown dead

And when the breeze, the Southern

He hears the signing, in his sleep

cut this amount to 50 .OOO.O 900.
Under the new plan the first division

The third will take in South Carolina.

Last Night's Dreanls
What They Mean
DID you DREAM OF ACTORS?

COMBINES in our excursions into
- Dreamland we find ourselves in
the company Of actors or actresses. or
both; not seeing them play but con-
versing with them. This the mystics
regard as a very favorable omen; one
which fOretellS success in whatever
enterprise you have set your heart on.
But if you dream that you, yourself,
are an actor, or actress, much hard
work and many obstacles are before
you; all of which obstacles however.
you will overcome by persistent effort.
Women are advised not to dream that
they are to marry an actor for if they
dc their pet ambition will not be real
lied.
As TO how a man should treat an
actress whom he meets in the realm
of dreams the mystics are not agreed.
Some say that if you dream that you
make love to an actress all your flu
ture life will be joyful; while Others
declare that for single man TO dream
this signifies that he is going to have
lovers quarrel with his sweet
heart. and fer q married man that he
is in for a row with his wife Accept
inc the latter Interpretation dream life
and actual life would seem, IN this re-
spect 10 be closely akin.
Freuds dictum that every dream is
the fulfillment of wish is easy
enough to accept with regard TO this
dream; for all of us have, at some
time, wished TO meet actors and
actresses and converse with them. But
it is not so easy TO follow him i'm his
theory that this conscious wish of the
day would not have excited the dream
had il not met with an unconscious
wish which reinforced IL and that nm
conscious wish AT infantile one. He
says: ut may seem that the conscious
wish alone has been realized in
dream. but n slight peculiarly in the
formation of the dream will put us on
the track of the powerful helper from
the unconscious" His theory is that
all infantile wishes are indestructible
In the unconscious; always active
and ready for expression whenever
they find an opportunity to unite
themselves with an emotion from con-
sciouS life. and they transfer their
greater intensity TO the lesser inten-
slty of the latter. that in every dream
some indestructible infantile wish Il
the dominating force. OF all Freud's
theories this ore has attracted the
widest attention and discussion.

Cities Have More People Than Country
II OR the first time in the history O.

u OR the first time in the history of
l. the United States the 1920 census
returns will show more people live in
the cities and towns than in the rural
territory.
With one-third of the census tabu-
lated, including practically all the
larger cities. the census officials eSti-
mate that 81 or % per cent of the
population of continental United
States will be shown by the final fig
ures as urban residents.
Based on the total estimate of 1O5,-
100000 made by Dr. J. A. Hill, chief
statiStician of the bureau, the number
of people living in cities and towns,
if the percentage is 81, would be
53,550O00 and 51,45O,OO0 in rural ter
ritory.
The increase in the proportion of
urban population TO rural has been
manifest since 1920, and has been
steady and rapid since 1880. This in

WELCOME TO FLAGSTAFF

The city is full of visitors. Many of our peo- pie have friends visiting them who have come just at this time to take in the big celebration that began yesterday. The tourists have halted on their dusty way east and west to breathe awhile beneath our stately pines, enjoy our cool nights, and take in the sports. The people from the surrounding country, far and near, are with us to help make merry. The crops are in, the spring round-ups finished and everyone and his wife and children is taking good long holiday.
 The aboriginal redskin is here in force. For many days some of them have travelled, over hot, sun-baked, dusty plains, to have good time with their white brethren.
 Welcome to you all The town is yours. We wish there was more to offer you especially in the way of sleeping accommodations. But who wants to sleep? Anyhow, good fellowship, the desire to please, the resolve to keep you fully amused and entertained, with full measure of thrills thrown in; these are here in fullest abundance. What we lack in roofs we more than make up in friendliness and kindliness. May you all have royal good time and be met with no ex- perience but will be pleasing to remember when you go back home.

WILL BE CAMPAIGN OF ISSUES

The unanimity with which the Harding nom- ination is being acclaimed augers well for the success of the campaign. Prior to the conven- tion individual preferences were divided among many candidates, but it is apparent that since the contest is over, all who believe in republican prin- cples are getting behind the nominee.
 The first act of the republican convention was to adopt declaration of principles by which It's subsequently, chosen candidates would be bound. Its next duty was to select as head of the ticket man of unquestioned integrity, fearless courage and dauntless energy to make those princlples a part of our government That man they found in Harding. No man, whatever his political faith, will question for a moment that Harding IS amply qualified to realize the program of reform ation and reconstruction that his party has laid out for him. Criticism, therefore, of his candi- dacy must be an attack on that program. And, conversely, support of his candidacy must in volve primarily the vigorous presentation of it's policies before the people.
 In a campaign of that sort the republicans have a tremendous advantage over the demo- crats. For the last seven years the government has revolved around the personality in the white house. Democratic prediction promises, cOnsti- tutiOnal limitations upon executive authority, and established precedents have alike given way before the imperious dictum of the executive au- tocrat His reelection in 1916 was accomplished by continually impressing upon the people that the salavation of the nation depended upon keep ing Woodrow Wilson in the white house. Issues played little part in that campaign; in fact, the democratic textbook was adorned with picture of the president, with the words, 'Thank God for Wilson,"
