The statement says these results seem paradoxical, but are correct. Director Merriam's statement is designed to explaln how the deduction that tha south, for the first time, is now growing as rapidly as the north, harmonizes with the well known facts that in the north the proportion of Inhabltants living In citles I8 much larger than it is in the south, and that as a rule cities increase In popu tion more rapidly than In country districts. tricts, The statement shows that in the north the proportion of population living in large cities fs more than three times as great as it 18 in the south, Tends Toward Congestion. The population living In citles of over 26,000 Inhabitants increased 41.10 per cent between 1860 and 1800, partly by the growth of the 124 citles of that elze in 1890 and partly by the addition during the following ten years of thirty-six other cities to the list The population of the country outside these cities increased between 1890 and 1900 14.9 per cent. The 190 citles of the United States, ench of which had over 20,000 in- habitants in 1900, increased in population 326 per cent between 1890 and 1900. The rest of the United States, including Alaska and the recent insular accessions, increased 17.9 per cent. Of the total population of 94,575 in continental United States, 19,718,312, or 25.9 per cent, live in cities of 25,000 inhabitants or more. The proportion of inhabitants of the three sections, north, south and west, Into which the census divides the United States, follo: Greatest Growth in North.

The figures, concluding the statement, show that the present growth of population 18 a resultant in the north of a very rapld growth of large citles, a slower grqwth of small cities and a very slight growth in the country, and a resultant in the south of a rate of growth of large cities below the average for the country, balanced by a striking growth of small citles and an In- crease of rural population twice as fast as the average for the United States.

D., Jan. 18.—(Special.)— The little town of Bryant, this state, scems to have had more than its allotted portion of accldents this week. During that time of great excitement the wife of J. K. Coe, editor of the News, took fodine by mistake and came near dying from the effects of it. Two little children took polson which they found where it had been carelessly left, and were only saved by the early arrival of a physiclan. A little boy had a pitchfork run into his ear while he was at play near where some men were unloading hay. The physiclan in_charge hopes to save his hearing. Henry Pura was another victim, and he came near being blown to atoms by the accidental discharge of a gun. The gun was being carried in a hayrack and had partly slipped through the bottom, when Pura took it by the muzzle and in drawing it up the trigger caught and the gun was discharged. The man's clothes were torn from his right side and set on fire. Sev- eral shot entered the fleshy part of his cheek, and, passing over the cheek bone, came out at the roots of the hair. The fire was at once extingulshed and he escaped with no other Injury. BLOWN TO PIECES BY DYNAMITE bo placed in proper position and"the houses | ¥ LEAD, 8. D, Jan. 18.—(Special.)—Word reaches Lead ot a serious accident at the ‘Wabash mine, near Custer, in which Henry Cranville was killed and Thomas Mlills so injured that there is no hope of his re- covery. A defective fuse produced a premature blast, before Granville and Mills had time to get out of the shaft. They lighted the fuses on fourteen shots In the bottom of. the shaft, 100 feet deep, and started to the top in a bucket. One of the shots exploded before they had been ralsed over a few feet. Flying debris knocked Granville out of the bucket and he fell to the bottom, where there were thirteen shots yet to go. Mills remained in the bucket and reached the top, although he was badly cut and s in a critical condition. Granville was mutilated almost beyond recognition, and wws dead before help reached him. The e mine inspector, Thomas Gregory, has left Lead for Custer, to investigate the accident. DIES AT THE END OF A ROPE Stoux Ind is Lynched for Horse Stealing in Deadwood Country. DEADWOOD, 8.

ROOT SAYS BUY FRIAR LANDS Seoretary of War Belisves this Will Setile Vezations Quastion. HOLDINGS CAUSE OF SERIOUS DISCONTENT Arouse Bitter Hatred Not Equalled Even in eland—Dec! Re- liglous Controversy is Not Involved, WASHINGTON, Jan, 18.—Secretary Root was heard on the question of the friar lands in the Philippines before the house com- mittes on insular affairs today. He sald these land holdings cause one of the chiet causes of discontent among the people. They had furnished Aguinaldo's chiet ap- peal to popular prejudice. The gecretary sald the religious orders so fully recognized the bad condition of affairs that they were dlsposed to sell out and he urged that the government take advantage of the opportunity to remove the chief causes of discontent in the islands. He did not belleve condemnation proceedings would be necessary, as there were indica tions that a fair price could be agreed upon. A rough estimate of the value of the lands, he said, was from $5,000,000 to $7,500,000, American money. Secretary Root began his statement by explaining the enormous power which the religlous orders had long exercised in the Philippines. They were represented at Madrid, and the archbishop was quite powerful as the governor eneral of the {slands. The orders had largely supplanted the tative pries As a result of the great political power of the orders the friars be- came the medium of communication be- tween the local parishes and the central government. They held large tracts of the best land, amounting to about 400,000 acrs at the time of American occupation. The people rented the lands, and thus a landlord and tenant system W now in operation. This caused intense hatred and, Mr. Root sald, the feeling of the tenant class was not equalled in bitterness by anything in Ireland. Aguloaldo had taken advantage of this intenso feeling of the temants against the friar landlords and the move- ment had become very popular. Wil Settle Agitation, The secretary sald that about the most important thing to be done at this time was to dispose of the friar question, as it was felt that when landed proprietorship was brought to an end most of the agitation would be disposed of. The friars had been driven from the land in many c he #ald, and if they returned the peaple would kill them. Appeals had been made to the War department to col- lect the rents due, but the secretary sald this could not be done without the use of troops. Mr. Root said that no religious question was Involved, as it was simply a condition that existed and was fully recognized. The triars themselves were so fully alive to the conditions that they would doubtless be ready to dispose of their lands. At all events, Mr. Root sald, they were part of au organization, and he apprehended that the disposition of the lands would be disposed of by higher church authorities than the friars themselves. VACCINATE BULLS AND BEARS Down on Health Officers Swoop Chamber of Commerce with Thelr Tools MINNEAPOLIS, Jan, 18.—The health de- partment descended upon the Chamber of Commerce in full force today. Its officlals tell upon the occupants and proceeded to vaccinate right and left. Great excitement prevalled through tbe bullding when it be- 6 known that was barre When trading was at its height and the bulls and bears, all unsuspicious of the dan- ger, were hard at it a squad of policemen quickly closed all exits and the surgeons began their work of wholes vaccinations. About thirty visitors from the country were in the gallery and as many more were in the hallways and on the floor. In all about 300 persons were vaccinated. Chapped hands, cracked lips and rough- ness of the skin cured quickly by Banner Salve, the most healing ointment in the world.
