THE ENUMERATION cF 1890.
He claims That the Percentage of In
crease is Out of Harmony -with That
of Other Decides—He Thinks a Mis
take Has Bean Made, and Gives His
Reasons.
New York, March 21.—Roger Q. Mills
believe* that some gigantic mistake has been
made by the census enumerators of 1890, and
in the February number of the Forum,
which will be published on March 25, he
pre-enta some fresh and interesting argu
ments in support of his position. He lays
down the proposition at the outset that the
announcement of the population was a gen
uine surprise, not alone to those who were
looting for the dark side of the picture, but
to those whose faith in the census bureau
had never wavered. The Increase which it
denotes of 24.86 per cent, is, according to
Mr. Mills, wholly irreconcilable with the
advance of other decades. He will sav:
“From 1810 to 1860 our decern ial in
crease ranged between 36.38 aud 35.58 per
cent. At no period outside -the war period
has our increase go, e so low as 24.86 per
cent. To account for this extraordinary
fall in the ratio of increase, nothing abort
of war, pestilence or famine could be re
ceived as at all satisfactory. Mr. Porter
says that the general law governing the in
crease of population is that “it goes on at a
coustantly diminishing rate." That is true
generally, but not universally. From
1790 to 18J0 the percentage was
35.10; in the next decade it was
36.38. Here was an increasing
rate, not a diminishing one. * * * *
In deoades where the immigration is larger
the percentage of increaso is larger, and
where it is smaller the reverse is true. If
additions and subtractions by immigration,
wars, pestilence and famines are left out of
the com; u ation, the inceease of population
will be by a constantly diminishing rato;
but the rate of diminution will be gradual,
and the proportionate rate of its decline
will be ns certain as the decline itself. It
will not bo volcanic or spasmodic in its
movements, as the report of the eleventh
census shows it to be.
“In order that we may get nearer to the
law that governs the increase of population,
we should eliminate immigration from our
estimates. Its presence only tends to ob.
scure the problem and make It more difficult
of solution. Iu the decade from 1840 to 1850,
when we had 35.87 percent, increase, we had
more than a million of immigrants in excess
of those of the preceding decades, and from
1850 to 1860, when we had 35.58 per cent,
increase, we again had a million more
immigrants than in the decade immedi
ately preceding. Bi*t from iB6O to 1870,
when our increase was at the rate of 22.63
per cent., we bad a decrease of immigration
as well Hg a tremendous civil war. From
1870 to 1880, when our increaso was at the
rate of 30.08 per cent., the lowest we had
ever had outside of the war period, our im
mig'ation exceeded that of the preceding
decade by only 420,000. Our immigration
from 18"0 to 1890 was 5,246,613, without in
cluding accessions from Mexico and the
British possessions since 1885. which Iho
bureau of statistics estimates, from Cana
dian records, at 540,000, making the total of
immigrants for the decade 5,786,613. This
is the largest we have ever had in any
decade and mote than twice as many as in
any former decade, aud yet the
percentage of increase fails from
30.U8 to 24.86. Where does this
enormous shrinkage of population come
from i Certainly not from the falliug off
of immigration, or from wars, pestilences
and famines, for vve have not been visited
by any of these scourges during the last ten
years. By rnbti acting the number of im
migrants received in each decade we may
ascertain the rate of natural increase in
each. From 1820 to the present we have
the official report of immigrants, aud sub
tracting teem from the totals in each de
cade, we find that the rate of increase in
each decade has been as follows:
From 1820 to 1830. 31.65 per cent.
From 18)0 to 1810 88.01 percent.
From 1841)10 1650 ...25.88 percent.
From 1850 to 1860 54.45 per cent.
From 1860 to 1870 15 88 percent.
From 1870 to 1880 22.78 percent.
From 1680 to 1890 13.32 percent.
“Here we see Mr. Porter’s law of the
diminishing ratio and how closely its suc
cessive falls approach each other. In the
do ade from 1869 to 1870 we see the abnor
mal depression from 24.45 per cent, to 15.38
per cent. It ended before the next decade
began, and the rate of increase took its nor
mal place in line at 22.78. From 1890 to
1890 it should have been close to 20 per cent.,
but the cousuß report tells us it was 13.32
lower than during the war decade. An
increase of 20 per cent, would have brought
us in the neighborhood of the estimates of
the experts of the treasury department.
Prof. Elliot, actuary of the treasury depart
ment, estimated the population for 1888 at
62,728,000 and that for 1889 at 64,554,000.
He did not carry forward his es iuiates to
1890, but adopting the ratio of increase
which he used for former years our popula
tion in 1890 would be over 06,200,000.
“The actual numbers returned for the
years 1870, 18S0 and 1890 show that 38,558,-
371 people made a larger natural increase
from 1070 to 1880, than 50.155.753 peoDle
did from 1880 to 1890. Deducting the im
migrants from both periods the increase
from 1870 is found to be 875,121, and that
from 1880 is found to be 7,219,854. Can it
be seriously contended that 38,000,000 of the
same pe pie increased 1,000,000 more in ten
years than 60,000,000 did? Tne census re
port decl.res that startling fact, but the
superintendent asks the people to believe
only one-half of it, and reject the other
half. Ho sees tho palpable absurdity of
such a statement, aud to escape it
plunges into a worse one. He assails the
census of 1870. and says that it should have
shown 39,818,449 people instead of 38,558,371,
and that the increas ■ in the previous decade
should have been 20. G percent, instead of
23.63. To make his logic fit the situation,
be adds 1,260,078 to the returns of 1870.
I his addition makes the percentage of in
crease from 1870 to 1880, 25.9 instead of
3008 per cent. Is it possible that Mr.
Porter can be serious when he says that
our ppoulation increased during the war
decade faster than in tne peace decade fol
lowing? Does he ignore the fact that im
migration during that decade was more
than 300,000 below that of the preceding
decade, and more than 500,000 below that of
the succeeding decade?
Does he ignore tho fact that more than
500,000 people perished from causes arising
eutofthewar* Does he ignore the fact
that from 2,000,000 to 2,500,000 men wero
in the field—t. at a vast numbor of these
were husbands who were separated from
their families for a great part of that timei
* * * * * * *
“Thus the superintendent has been
placed by his enumerators in an unhappy
situation. To escape the conclusion that
thi ir figures have forced up n him—that
38,000,000 peop e have Incaeased faster than
50,000,000 —lie flies for refuge to the still
more absurd position that population will
increase faster when the sexes are separated
than when they were united. Takiug the
corrected figures of 1870, as made by the
superintendent, and leaving out im
migra ion, the rate of increase from 1860 to
1870 is 19.38 per cent. Here is another spas
modic fall from 24.45 to 19.38 per cent.,when
the diminution of the rate was less than 2
per cent, in the preceding decade. The rate
of increase from 1870 to 1880 is 18.89 per
cent., and is as much t<v> small as the other
is too large. From 18.89 iu 1880 Mr. Porter
plunges to 13.32 in 1890. * ******
“It may be true 'hat the census in South
Carolina was defective in 1870, and per
haps it may have been so to a small extent
in some of the other southern states. A
half million In all of them will more than
cover ail the non-enumerated. Now, if we
take the cen-us of 1870 and add 500,000 for
those omitted and 2,000,000 for the loss of
life and retardation of increase by the war,
we wifi have the following rates of increase,
immigrants being omitted;
From IW to I*3o .... J] 65
From lt*Jto 1840 38.01
From 1846 to 1-50 aJM
From to 1-60 34.4?,
From 1860 to 1870 23.33
From 1870 to IS-C 21.30
From 1860 to 1860 U.3i
“Thus it is evident that whether we take
Mr. Porter's figures without anv allowance
for the effects of the war, or with theeffecta
of Ihe war added, neither one nor both can
account for the lose of population, which is,
as shown by him, greater during the decade
just ended than it was during the decade of
hospitals, prison pen* and battlefields. The
percentage of 1-90, to be in harmony with
the whole line of prec ’ding decades, except
that of the war, ebouM have bee 1 nearly
20, which would have given us a total pop
ulation of 65.000,000 or 66.000,000."
Mr. Mills concludes his article with a
careful c usideration of the announced
population of separate states.

Some Points About -heir Influence
In the Affairs of the W orld.
Brooklyn, March 21.—“ The shopping
women did it.” This remark was mode by
ex-tspeaker Reed in his recent speech, deal
ing with the overthrow of the Republican
party in the November elections.
Accustomed, as I am, to estimate women
at their full value, and to give them credit
for all the influence they exert, and all t.be
work they do, I was, uever'heless, quite
surprised when I considered that nearly ail
the shopping of the world was performed
by women. Women, as a rule, do the
marketing, and always purchase all the drv
goods used in the family, with the
occasional exception of a necktie
and a box of collars. These shop
pers are not by any means the frivolous
creatures that this word is generally sup
posed to represent. In the majority of in
stances they have just so much money, and
this must be made to cover tho expense of
sheets aud pillow cases, napkins, towels,
ad all sorts of useful articles, as well as
flowers and feathers, silks and cashmeres
for personal use and adornment. Very
few of these women are political econo
mists, but they had natural sense enough to
know that higher taxes would not bring
about higher w ages. Indeed, at all the
women’s clubs and business meetings, even
of workiug women, a doss not cred
ited with cultivated intelligence,
this thought has been a thousand
times moi e logically dealt with and elab
orated than by any of the congressmen who
have spent clays in its discussion. Prices
went up exactly as the “shopping women"
and I am glad to know that
Speaker Reed realizes the political power
which women exert, though they are only
strangers and aliens, and classed in the
constitution with idiots and criminals. It
didn’t take the women long to got at the
true inwardness of the McKinley bill, aud
while they cared absolutely nothing for
party, they did care for their husbands,
their fathers, their brothers, their sisters
who are workers, and for themselves.
Hence the result.
“An Augusta Grandmother” wishes to
know if I can give a reason for the total Ig
noring of politics in the Woman’s Congress
lately held at Washington. I tnink “Grand
mother” has made a slight mistake. At
this gathering politics was treated in its
entirety, its breadth, depth and thickness,
and some of the minor i sues usually inci
dent to such occasions were tactfully
omitted. The question of the ballot for
women was practically ignored. This was
wise, but never before in the history of the
world was woman’s influence in tee home
and the nation so universally conceded as
now. This is enough for the "present. The
outlook is clear and encouraging.
Another southern lady asks if those who
have the matter in charge tnink it will be
possible to devise a costume that will be
popular among business women.
lily impression is that a uniform dress
will meet with great opposition. Women
will naturally refuse to wear a garb which
will mark them as business women. Then
there is no need of such a costume. The
hygienic underwear and the trouser.—
equestrienne tights—make a fine combina
tion. One very light petticoat is more thau
sufficient—many women do cot wear even
one on the street. This rig, uncomplicated
by tight oorsets or girting bands, and
covered by a suitable, prettily made, light
weight, swing-clear business gown, cannot
be improv ed upon. It is to be hoped that
the radical wing of the reform in the mat
ter of woman’s dress will not devise an ugly
coatume, and find a few ugly women to
wear it, beoause it will only serve to make
the sex rediculous, and there has been quite
enough of this in the past.
The suit of a complexion beautifier for
S9OO against the wife of the millionaire, C.
P. Huntington, is making a great stir.
4 ’Curiosity” asks me to tell how many treat
ments Mrs. Huntington received for this
sum.
The beautifler's bill is not itemized, I am
informed, but it was a trying job to reduce
the adipose tissue which interfered with the
comfortable clasping of the lady’s diamond
necklice, aud anew crop of wrinkles about
the eves were especially obstreporous. The
beautifier probably fixes her prices accord
ing to the ability of her customers to pay, a
rule of trade which I believe is also adopted
by dentists.
By still another lady I am asked to tell
what this facial treatment is, and what
woman can do who are not situated so tuat
they can avail themselves of it.
It is massage, pure and simple. No in
struments aro used by true professionals,
and this process can be easily learned and
practiced at home without money and with
out price. It is not a daubing on of paint
and powder. If it were I should be the last
one on ihis earth to say anything in favor
of it. If those who wish to learn this treat
ment will enclose a 2-ccnt stamp to the
Metropolitan Guide and Shopjier, Miss M.
G. Anderson, 805 Lexington avenue, Br ><>k
lyn, she will tell them just how the work is
done. This is a work of entire benevolence
on her part. For the sake of her customers
all over the country this wide awake
woman keeps herself posted in all such
matters, and when I asked her to extend
her knowledge to my readers she was de
lighted 11 be of service.
It has been asked if this information so
freely given is not a direct aud unmistaka
ble interference with the work of the pro
fessional beautifier. The question seams to
me ridiculous. Why women at a distance
nnd women who ca mot afford it should bo
kept in ignorance of so simple a method for
keeping the skin soft and the face attract
ive is a problem which I cannot figure out.
Women do not believe in trust3 or monop
olies, and the right to beauty is inalienable,

DIED AT 86.
A Native of Liberty County Laid to
Rest in Massachuetts.
Madison, Wis., March 16. —Mrs. Henry
J. Ripley died Feb. 13 last, at Newton
Center, Mass., aged 86 years. She was
Miss Annie Winn of Liberty county. Her
father was Peter Winn. She was the young
est among nina children, by two different
wives. The son, Thomas Sumner, was an
eminent gospel minister, and six clergymen,
have been counted among his grandchildren
Hu extensive plantation, beautified witn
spreading live oaks, was only one mile from
Midway church. A colony of puritans
came with their minister, Rev. John Osgood,
They came iu a body from Dorchester,
Mass., to Dorchester, a. C., and thence to
Midway, liberty county. The church was
of the co igre.a.ional order, and so con
tinued till after the late civil war. Then the
white members withdtew, and organized
into separate Presbyterian b dies
at Dorchester and Flemington. Walthour
ville, the larger summer retreat, had
previously adopted the distinctive form of
John Knox. But, while the church was
from the start nominally Congregational,
it was in effect Presbyterian. Its colleague
pastors were Presbyterian and its con
tributions went into the Presbyterian
treasury. The many minis ere which
emanated from that, as a mother, became
Presbyterian rather than Congregational
clergymen. One reason, perhaps, for that
THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, MARCH 23. 1891.
was there were no Congregational house
holds in that section to affiliate with.
The first church edifice was burnt down
during the revolutionary war. Tha present
very respectable building was put up in the
early part of this century. The dense
population of freedmeu in that locality
have stood the cost of Midway sanctuary
for keeping up repairs. Rev. Waite, a
foi raer member of Georgia presbytery, is
their faithful pastor. He is sustained by
northern friends and reported to be doing "a
good work. Both a Sun-lay and week day
school are sustained, and the blacks are re
ported in a progressive posture.
Miss Anne Winn and Rev. Henry J. Rip
ley were married about 1824. Soon after
their nuptials he became preceptor of
Walthourville Academy. At the same time
he preached every Lord’s day at North
Newport Baptist church—onerous work
for a young divine with very little pulpit
material on hand.
He was a gentleman of finished educa
tion, cultivate l manners, a most amiable
disposition and wiuning ways. As euch he
greatly endeared himself to the people
of Liberty county of all religious denom
inations.
But a wider field soon opened to him. He
was duly called to a professorship in the
Newton Baptist Theological Seminary—the
young preacher instructing others to preach.
That was his life work, and it was an emi
nent succ?ss. He there had conferred upon
I im the academic titie of D. D., LL. D.
In 1874 Dr. Ripley and wife celebrated
their golden wedding, and he went to an
honored grave soon after. The writer has
been to the cemetery and the monument.
And now scarcely one month since his be
loved life partner was laid by his side,
jointly to wait the resurrection trumpet.
Peter Winn, the father of Mrs. Ripley,
was long years ago a deacon in Midway
church. About then came along an itinerat
ing Baptist clergyman, w ho managed to up
set his views with respect alike to the mode
and subjects of the rite, and he joined that
denomination. His four elder chddreu de
clined to follow their parent, and adhered
to the Midway congregation. The last son
to hold on to residotici at the old plantation
was Washington. He was burled from
there in Midway brick-walled cemetery
about a generation back. His elder
brother, John, is believed to have been the
very first native Georgian graduating at
Yale college.
Midway was so called because tho locality
is equi-distant between the rivers of
Ogeschee and Altamaha. No more inter
esting spot than to wander through Mid
way’s ancient cemetery and read inscrip
tions to monuments there.
The church has,b*<cn the grand nucleus
and educator to citizenship in Liberty
county. Perhaps no religious congregation
in the state has contributed to more
shape the dentin ios of tho c ruinonwaalth.
Among prominent clergymen emanating
from Midway church might be enrolled
Francis Goulding, Dauiel Baker, C. P.
Jores nnd S. J. < 'assels. Among the lawyers,
William Lane, W. B. Fleming, John G.
Ward and E. H. Bacon. Among the phy
sicians, Dr. John Harden and Dr. William
Gaston Bullock. Among the men of science,
the Leconte brothers aud their cousin Jones.

Annual Report of the Louisa Porter

During the past year the imm mate work of
the boms has been somewhat changed, the
board having adapted their wort to the needs
which have presente 1 tbe ns-lret. The ad.ti

us nine additional rooms which have been
nea:lf and oomfortahlv furnished. A me no

itself to to us for a comfortable home for
young working girls, at a moderate rate of
board, regulated by their salaries, we have
utilized tnese rooms lit this way. odering them
at such an oderate rate that this worthy vht.ss
of young wor-ers could realize something from
their labors after their month's expenses were
met. We are clad to rejwrt success in t is
undertaking, having ban our rooms occu

partment we are met with many difficulties and
discouragements. Our city has greatly In
creased its population, and the poor are in large
proportions. Tho amount to tie distributed lias
not increased with the population. And how to
mane the supply divide itself to meet the
demand Is the monthly problem to be solved.
And wn often turn away heartsick and weary
from the wan faces, eager eyes and outstretched
hands of the last crowd that come to us for
help We wouid gladly give more to each
worthy applicant, but the demand is too great
to do more than to give n little help to each.
We bopo if we are to continue this distribution
that the commissioners will at some time not
tar distant find themselves in condition to
respond favorably to our oft-repeated appeals
for an increased appropriation for the city
poor.
The ladies of the board give their pemnal
attention to the purchasing and distribution of
the clothing and tho giving out of wood tickets.
Our monthly committees visit personally all
cases reported, and try to be just mid discrimi
nating, ns well as considerate aud kind. We
hope we have made our work elear, and that
the simple statement of these facts is all that is
nece-sary to recommend this wry general
work. All denominations are represented in
our beneilcianes, an 1 all al keshare the ben-llts
of our institution. The bonrd of managers at their
meeting in January Inst dot Tinlll* ito übuu

to have those of our get) Croud, and sy in pathetic

who would be co-workers with us send us
their names to add to our subscription list.

GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY.
Peoplr Should Live IIMI \>>n and Enjoy
Life All I lie While.
‘To crow old gracefully, - say* the well known
Dr. Gardner, "la not the common lot of all.
With advancing yean come Increased Infirmi
ties, but they are by no means unavoidable and
their present* Is due to failure to keep up to
their work the various organs of the
body The study of the body by scientists
furnishes unquestionable evidence that the
duration of human life may be prolonged to ioo
years. - ’
ho says Dr. Gardner, and yet what more com
mon than to a e a prematurely aged, withered
ami broken down man. or a pale weak and
emaciated old lady. The spirit is broken; alt
imereatds gone from life, and they look for
ward only to death. The vaddost tiling of all
Is that this premature age ami brentlng down
11 neeuleta. It can eaally be avoid-d by a little
care and assisting nature just a little, and It is
upon this point that Dr. Gardner again speaks
most clearly.
He says Science, common sense, and ailex
perie eo testify to the iienelits to he derived
from the use f alcoholic stiniulanta. -- It should
be reme nb re I, however, ihat they must be
pure, and Uiatof all stimulants,whisky is prefer
able. The word whisky Is derived from an an
cient word meaning "water of life, - ' and it is a
most appropriate name, although there is ao
much t.iat is unworthy In the market The
highest authorities—doctors, chemist* and scien
tists—agree, however, that Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey is pure amt cannot harm even a en and 1.
Its effect Is to build up the system, renew ths
life anti replace weakness and weariness by
hea thy vigor. Be very careful, however that
you secure only the genuine; insist on vo ir
druggist furnishing you with it. and you' will
certainly find great benefit from its use.
