PRoPER.IEsT or PROGRESS
Many Things Good Citizens Will Put
Above the Numerical Growth OF
Their Community.

Greater New York is peeved because
1t has been credited with some 4o0,-
600 fewer people than it believes lives
within Its boundaries, says the st.
Louis Globe-Democrat. It has enough
to lead London and thus be classed
as the largest metropolis Of the world,
and II pride in nothing but the NUM-
ber Of people who manage to exist
within the official limits of the city
is the ruling spirit, New York ought
to be satisfied with credit for hav-
ing the largest number. But 1t is
not satisfied and Is making a count Of
Its own. The census figures show an
actual decline In the borough of Man
haitian, which fact ought to envoke
expressions Of satisfaction instead of
the reverse. II some Of the crowded
masses Of lower Manhattan have been
able to find homes outside that dis
trict, thus reducing the congestion and
making living more comfortable for
those who are compelled to remain,
1t shouf be matter of general con-
graduation.
Why is a census taken? Is 1t so
that we may know exactly how many
people there are in the United States
and that municipal rivalries based en-
tirely upon the number Of human be-
ings who live within the official boun-
daries may be determined2 That is
all a great many people see in 1t.
Newspaper comment on figures given
out Is purely numerical. Perhaps that
Is because we have only numerical
data as yet. Far more worth consid-
Grafton will be the facts as to the
conditions Of life, the social and re-
ligious status, the matter of employ
ment, housing, ETC., etc. Any city gen.
uninely interested in its actual growth
and conditions will pay more attention
to such data than to the mere mat
ter of numbers.

The campaign to expose the
methods of the so-called rent hogs
in New Orleans which was inaugu-
rated by the press of that city few
weeks ago, goes merrily on. Every
day columns are devoted by the news
papers to an expose Of the ruthless
manner in which landlords have been
steadily increasing the rents on their
properties. Numerous charges and
counter charges by property owners,
real estate AGENTS and tenants fill
the pages of the press, accompanied
by proposals to investigate and sug-
gestions Of all. kinds to stop the al
legged coughing, but it does not ap-
pear that the agitation has resulted
in the correction of the evil COM
planned Of or in the reduction of one
cent in the price Of rent.
