The certain thingi is that it flies di-

for clear and specific adhesion to

wood County Public Health Associa-
ton announced today, in urging the
citizens of Redwood county to give en-
thusiastic support to the 1920 Christ
mas Seal Sale that sufficient funds be
provided to continue undated the
fight against this deadly disease.
Last year, PASTA persons died from
all causes in Minnesota and of these
2,244-nearly one out Of every ten
were killed by tuberculosis, according
to the State Board of Health. Facts
about disease are being gathered and
supplied the Minnesota Public Health
Association by the state health board
to aid the Christmas Seal Sale
The goal of the 1920 Christmas
Seal Sale in Minnesota is a fund of at
least $250,000 This means that TWEEN
ty-five million Christmas Seals, or
their equivalent in Health Bonds, must
be bought by pubic-spirited citizens
in every community in the state to
supply the money necessary to carry
on the fight to stamp out the deadly
"White Plague" and save the lives Of
the thousands of men, women and
children who are sacrificed to it need
lessly every year, officials Of the Red
wood County Public Health Associa-
ton emphasized.

"but the substantial accuracy of the
enumeration in January is fully borne
out by comparison with estimates bas-
ed on the probable excess of births ov-
er deaths throughout the decade and
the excess Of immigration over imi-
grafton.
From all available data it may be
roughly estimated that the annual
excess of births over deaths through
out the United States is approx innate
~ l per cent. This rate compounded
would indicate an increase of approx
mately 10.5 per cent during the dec
ade. Thus, the nearly 100000 per-
sons present in the United States in
1910 might be expected to increase to
about 101, 100000 in 1920.
100000 Gain from immigration.
an addition, the excess Of immi-
grafton over emigration during the
decade was approximately 1888, 600.
Since the bulk of these foreign born
persons came to the country in the
first four years of the decade it may
be roughly estimated that the increase
due to excess Of births over deaths in
their families was about 10 per cent.
Thus the population of the coun-
try may be assumed to have been
augmented by about 100000 during
the decade through excess of immigra-
ton over emigration. The two esti-
mates taken together would indicate,
therefore, a probable population of
105, 100000, or only small fraction
of l per cent more than the total
shown by the returns of the four
teenth census.
ITO show more clearly the change
in the proportion of the population
living in rural territory now as COM
pared with ten years ago, the rural
population can be divided into two
| classes, namely, 1864, 1876, or 9.3 per
cent of the total population living in
| incorporated places of less than $500
inhabitants and 1902, 703, or 1873 per
cent of the total population living in
what may be called purely country
district. At the census of 1910 the
population living in incorporated
places of less than $500 inhabitants
formed 8.8 per cent, while the popu-
lation living in purely country dis
tricts formed 44.8 per cent Of the to-
tai population.
Actual Decrease on Farms.
"The increase since 1910 in the pop
ulation as a whole, as before stated,
was 149 per cent, but during the dec
ade there has been an increase in that
proportion of Che population living in
urban territory of 12,192,826, or 28.6
per cent, and in that portion living in
rural territory Of 1,518,016 or only 81
per cent; and if the comparison is eI-
tended to cover the two classes Of
rural territory, it shows that portion
living in incorporated places of less
than $500 inhabitants shows an in
crease of 1,745,371, or 21.5 per cent,
whereas that portion living in purely
country districts shows an actual de-
crease of 227, 1856 or six-tenths of l
per cent. Montevideo News.

Continental United
States Population
Is | O5,683 O. 8
Outlying Possessions to Increase To-
tai by 12,250, 000-Gain Since
1910 is 13,710,S42.

The 1920 population of continental
| United States as announced by the
census bureau is ZOE, 683 ,T08 This is
an increase of 13,710,842, or 14.9 per
cent since 1910.
This total does not include the pop
ulation of outlying possessions, which
| will be announced as soon as the fl
cures for Alaska and the military and
naval service abroad are tabulated. 1t
is estimated, however that those pos
sessions have 12,250,000 inhabitants,
so the total number of people living
under the American flag is, in round
numbers, 100000.
I The figures for continental United
States compare with 91,972,266 ten
years ago and 75,994,575 twenty years
ago. The increase for the last decade
however, fell 2,266,849, or 81 per cent
below that of the preceding decade.
Director Rogers of the census bu-
reau, in a formal statement, attribut-
ed this reduction to the almost COM
plete stoppage of immigration during
the World war, an increase in emigra-
ton during the same period, deaths in
the influenza epidemic of 1918 and
war casualties.
The statement noted that the trend
of population from the country to the
city had been greatly accentuatcd
since 1910. For the first time in the
country's history, it said, more than
half the entire population was nov
living in urban territory.
Farm Total 6,459,99S.
Preliminary tabulations, Mr.. Rog,
ers said, showed that 54,816,209, OF
519 per cent of the people, were liv-
ing in Incorporated places of $500
inhabitants or more, and 50,866, 1893
or 48.1 per cent, in rural territory.
This situation was clearly reflected
at the figures as to farms in the coun-
try. These placed the total of farms
at 6,459,998, an increase Of only 49,
496, or Is per cent, in ten years, as
against an increase of 624 ,130, or 10.9
per cent, during the decade ended in
1920.
Mr.. Rogers stated that while the
present figures on the country's popu-
lation were preliminary and subject
to revision, the final official popula-
ton as transmitted to Congress in
December for apportionment purposes
was not likely to be greatly different
although it might be slightly larger
through the addition of population for
small sections claimed not to have beer
properly canvassed by census enumer-
ators.
Revised figures for number of CT
ties and counties are yet to be an
nounced, but the main work of the
1920 census is completed after nine
months of labor.

individuals and Parties

Chicago Tribune (Rep.): 1t is easy
to understand why the professional
politician should thus make loyalty to
party his guiding star. 1t is not so
natural or logical that the private citi-
zen should do so.
The politician depends upon his par
ty for success. Success is primarily
the attainment of office. That is a vi
tai requisite to his career. However
high his ideals or purposes, he can at
tain them only by the victory of his
organization at the polls. Having gain
ed office he can be effective only in so
far as he holds the support Of his fell
low officeholders and those associated
with them. For this reason he is
REGULAR" compromising on what he
considers lesser issues for the sake
of attaining what he considers the
greater. 1t is a fundamental rule of
politics and one not entirely bad.
Nothing but an absolute dictatorship
could rule without some compromise,
and dictatorship is the chief thing
a Democratic form Of government is
designed to prevent.
So much for the party regularity of
the professional politician. The indi-
vidual citizen faces no such situation
His need and his purpose is to put into
office the men and the policies which
he believes will conserve his liberties,
protect and enhance his property, and
generally improve his condition. His
judgment may prove to be at fault, but
he need not compromise with it. He
need not rely upon a party except as
that party represents principles which
he approves.
