The New York News quotes a variety ’ of interesting and suggestive facts to be found in the bulletin issued by the Cen. sus Bureau, which records the ¢ oi number convicts in penitentiaries. *‘As against 30,659 convicts in 1880, there are now 45,239, = the rate of increase is about Of na 23,094 and of From the last named figures, inasmuch as foreigners consti. tute one-fourth of the adult white popu- louble that of the population, there foreign born 7267. tive whites are | lation, it is evident that immigrants as a | colored, female convicts whole are a law-abiding population.

And this is so far as city popula. tion proper is concerned, or the popula. tion of towns having a population of eight thousand or more. The rural popu lation in its strictest limitation—that is on the farms and in the country stores and workshops or in hamlets of less than two hundred souls—would show that the disproportion between the town and Country a century ago and now is very much greater than appears from the cen. sus enumeration.

Are farmers’ movements of the future to be rendered impossible by the disappearance of the farmer!
