LONDON, Oct. 20.—Sir Robert Cox for many years statistician to the British Board of Trade, has the gift rare in this country; of making many figures interesting and instructive without straining their significance any way. This week he spoke at a meeting of the Manchester Society an the statistical changes century. He said: The population of Europe and nations of European origin like United States may now be put at thing over 500,000,000. A central the corresponding figure would have been more than about 170,000. A French statistician gave the in 1788 for Europe alone; excluded United States; as a little less than 000,000. In the century,the Europe and nations of European have grown to three times their numbers; and this without counting the population of Mexico and America; amounting now to 45,000 which ought; perhaps; to be included as Europeanized; though not European in race. Not only is the century intertherefore; as a characteristically tical century; but the statistics selves are in the highest degree prising. For generations and coe growth of Europe must have slow; owing to war and pestilence the other checks to popular which Malthus wrote; and then once; in a sigle century; we have sudden multiplication of n people is even more marvellous. A future has extended indefinitely new territory; and there have been improvements in new and old alike; the figures of trade ha multifled ten times and more The population of the seven southern counties is as follows: 1900. 1890. Los Angeles. 170,298 101,454 Orange. 19,696 13,589 Riverside. 17,897 San Bernardino. 27,929 25,497 San Diego. 35,000 34,587 Santa Barbara. 18,934 15,754 Ventura. 14,367 10,071 Riverside county was not organized until 1893, and does not figure in the 1890 census. The per cent of gain in San Bernardino and San Diego counties is not fairly shown because of the fact that Riverside county was formed from part of those counties since the 1890 census. The per cent of gain in the seven counties included in the 1890 census is as follows: Los Angeles, 67.8; Orange, 44.9; San Bernardino and San Diego counties is not fairly shown because of the fact that Riverside county was formed from part of those counties since the 1890 census. Of the 57 counties in the State all but eleven have increased in population during the past decade. Los Angeles county shows the greatest numerical increase, 68,844, but more than three-fourths of this increase is due to the increase in the population of the city of Los Angeles. The eleven counties showing a decrease in population are Alpine, Butte, Colusa, Del Norte, Eldorado, Lake, Plumas, Sierra, Stanislaus, Tulare and Yuba. Following are the incorporated cities having less than 5000 population, together with the townships in which they are situated: City. Township. Azusa. 863 2561 Long Beach. 2252 3285 Redondo Beach. 855 942 South Pasadena. 1001 1001 Anaheim. 1456 2261 Orange. 1216 3293 Elsinore. 279 646 San Jacinto. 583 854 Corona. 1434 1949 Colton. 1309 1961 Redlands. 4797 5663 Ontario. 722 2649 Escondido. 755 2428 Coronado. 935 945 National City. 1086 1770 Oceanside. 330 988 Lompoc. 972 2428 Ventura. 2470 2470 The population of the township in nearly every instance represents the actual population of the community, as most of the incorporated towns and cities have incorporated only the business part of the town. The official announcement of the total population of the United States for 1900 is 76,295,220, of which 74,627,907 are located in the forty-five States, representing approximately the population to be used for apportionment purposes. There is a total of 134,158 Indians not taxed. The total population in 1890, with which the aggregate population of the present census should be compared, was 63,069,756. Taking the 1890 population as a basis, there has been a gain in population of 13,225,464 during the last ten years, representing an increase of nearly 21 per cent. Following is the official announcement of the population of the United States as follows: The population of the seven southern counties is as follows: 1900. 1890. Los Angeles. 170,298 101,454 Orange. 19,696 13,589 Riverside. 17,897 — San Bernardino. 27,929 25,497 San Diego. 35,000 34,587 Santa Barbara. 18,934 15,754 Ventura. 14,367 10,071 Riverside county was not organized until 1893, and does not figure in the 1890 census.

Testies Show This to Be the Most Powerful State in the World—A Century's Marvellous Growth. LONDON, Oct. 20.—Sir Robert Giffen, many years statistician to the British Board of Trade, has the gift, very in this country, of making masses figures interesting and instructive, about straining their significance in way. This week he spoke at the meeting of the Manchester Statistical Society an the statistical changes of the country. He said: The population of Europe and of nations of European origin like the United States may now be put at some-ing over 500,000,000. A century ago corresponding figure would not be more than about 170,000,000. French statistician gave the figure 1788 for Europe alone, excluding the United States, as a little less than 150,-000. In the century, therefore, Europe and nations of European origin are grown to three times their former numbers, and this without counting the population of Mexico and South America, amounting now to 45,000,000 which ought, perhaps, to be included Europeanized, though not wholly European in race. Not only is the century interesting, therefore, as a characteristically statistical century, but the statistics themselves are in the highest degree surpassing. For generations and centuries the growth of Europe must have been slow, owing to war and pestilence and the other checks to population of which Malthus wrote, and then all at once, in a single century, we have this hidden multiplication of numbers. The economic development of the people is even more marvellous. Agriculture has extended indefinitely over the new territory, and there have been vast improvements in new and old territory alike; the figures of trade have been multiplied ten times and more; the not to wonder which of the two forces—the growth of population and the increase of the needs of the growing population on the one side, and the growth of invention and mechanical power in supplying human wants on the other side would gain as time went on." Referring to the desire to secure new markets abroad, Sir Robert Giffen said that the figures with which he had been dealing pointed to quite another source of new markets. Surely there could be no lack of new customers if the 500,000,-000 of the advanced races themselves were to be doubled in from thirty to fifty years and trebled or quadrupled in a century. Inspection. In conformity with general orders No. 10, issued on October 10, directing that the annual inspection and muster of the National Guard shall be held during the month of November, General Last has issued orders fixing the specific dates for the inspection and muster of the Oraage county commands composing his brigade as follows: Company L, Seventh infantry, Santa Ana, Tuesday, November 20, 1 p.m., inspection of property; 8 p.m., muster and inspection of company.

Organizations will be paraded in undress uniform, with campaign hats and leggings. Full field equipment will be worn, with blankets and shelter tents enrolled. The inspection and muster in will be under the supervision of Major J. W. F. Diss, brigade inspector. Capistrano. The Capistrano Oil company has commenced what promises to be an extended development of a practically untouched field near San Juan. The new work has been started on the Rancho Boca de la Playa, where the Capistrano oil company is located. CONSTITUTION AND THE FLAG. Judge Estee Righteously Upholds the Doctrine that the One Does not Follow the Other. United States District Judge Estee of Honolulu has rendered a decision to the effect that the "Constitution does not follow the flag" in an important libel case that has been before the courts for some time. As a result of the decision, William H. Marshall, editor of the late Weekly Volcano, will probably have to serve six months at hard labor. Marshall was sentenced for criminal libel on account of publications he had made about the late Chief Justice Judd. He made an appeal to the Supreme Court of Hawaii on technical grounds, alleging methods pursued during his trial that were not in accordance with American procedure. The lower court was sustained, and Marshall returned with a writ of habeas corpus to Judge Estee. Judge Estee held that the laws of Hawaii allowing conviction of defendants upon a verdict by nine jurors were still in force at the time of Marshall's trial, which was long after the passage of the resolution annexing Hawaii to the Union. The judge said that Hawaii, before being annexed, was "a free, enlightened State, possessing all the attributes to sovereignty, and when, with its consent, the islands were annexed by the United States, not only the lands but the people, with the laws and customs, were annexed, and by the well-established laws of nations, these laws and customs remained in force until new laws were enacted for the government of the Territory." Judge Estee held that the people of Hawaii were regarded by Congress as somewhat versed in the principles of self-government, so much so that Congress waited for nearly two years after actual annexation before providing laws for the government of the Terri- It was a reasonable probability that unless some great internal change should take place in the ideas and contents of the century, but the statistics themselves are in the highest degree sursisting. For generations and centuries the growth of Europe must have been slow, owing to war and pestilence and the other checks to population of which Malthus wrote, and then all at once, in a sigle century, we have this hidden multiplication of numbers. The economic development of the people is even more marvellous. Agriculture has extended indefinitely over the new territory, and there have been vast improvements in new and old territory like; the figures of trade have been multiplied ten times and more; the health of the peoples, all told, which would probably not have been reckoned by more than five thousand millions per year at the beginning of the century, must be reckoned now by tens of thousands of millions. "It would probably not be far short of the mark to say that while the millions of the advanced portion of the human race have increased in numbers and described each unit, on the average, two or three times better off than the corresponding unit at the beginning of one period." "Again, the development is for the most part not uniform among the European populations. It is most marked in the Anglo-American section. The increase here is from a population of not more than about 20,000,000, which was the population of the United States and the United Kingdom together a hundred years ago, to a population of not less than 130,000,000 at the present time." A great change in the distribution of political power among European nations themselves was also indicated. The existence alone of the United States implied an immense change. Sir Robert proceeded: "If we consider that an empire like that of Britain had its strength rather diminished than increased by the possession of territories like India, then the United States having a larger European population than that of the British empire might be considered the most powerful State in the world as far as population and resources were concerned. No doubt Russia had a much larger population but the inferiority of the units was so great that the preeminence of the United States was not in question. Germany, Russia and the United Kingdom had all grown, while France and Austria had by comparison remained stationary, so that now the great world Powers were four only—the United States, Britain, Russia and Germany, with France a doubtful fifth. The extent of the revolution that had taken place in a century was evident, and obviously accounted for much that was going on in international politics. If the forces now in existence continue to operate as they had done in the past century for only a few more generations, the close of the coming generation must witness a further transformation, whose beginnings would be apparent in the lifetime of some among us. "It was a reasonable probability that unless some great internal change should take place in the ideas and contents of the century, but the statistics themselves are in the highest degree sursisting. For generations and centuries the growth of Europe must have been slow, owing to war and pestilence and the other checks to population of which Malthus wrote, and then all at once, in a sigle century, we have this hidden multiplication of numbers." Capistrano. The Capistrano Oil company has commenced what promises to be an extended development of a practically untouched field near San Juan. The new work has been started on the Rancho Boca de la Playa, where the Capistrano company has about 8000 acres. The formations, so far as they now appear, are unbroken and are in a degree similar to those encountered in the Kern river field. The first well, which was spudded in the first of last week, has not yet progressed enough to demonstrate what may be expected in the way of success. Seepages in small quantity are of frequent occurrence on this property and it is hoped that development will show up an extremely good thing. Lacey and Rowland of the Puente, W.C. Patterson, Jas. Maier and other well known Los Angeles men are behind the enterprise and have lent it the benefit of heir extended experience in the oil industry. Parable of the Advertiser Behold an advertiser went forth to sow. And when he sowed, some seed fell into handbills and dodgers, and the street cleaner came, and gathered them up. Some fell among concert and theater programs, and the people being interested in the performance and not in the bargains, they were left on the seats or crumbled and thrown on the floor. And some fell among fake schemes and gift enterprises, and popular contempt sprang up and choked them. But some fell into legitimate newspapers, which found their way into the homes of the people who had time to read them, and they brought forth fruit, some one hundred fold, some sixty fold, some thirtyfold.
