' ' INCREASE OF POPULATION. An unofficial estimate of the popu lation of continental United states lias been made, which shows that the increase since the taking ot the 1919 census has been J, 236, 049, says the San Francisco Chronicle. On the 1st of January, 1916. the Inhabitants of the country totaled 101,203,315. The method adopted In -making the estimate was the same as that used by the census bureau, which does not slavishly adhere to fixed percentages, but takes Into consideration well ascertained facts which, like the weighting of an Index number table, assist In securing results approxim ating correctness. ;, The figures Indicate interesting changes which will make themselves disagreeably apparent In some sec tions of the Union when the work of reapportionment Is undertaken tn 1921, for It Is reasonably certain that the trend indicated by the estimate will be maintained during the re mainder of the decennial period of 1910-1920. The most conspicuous feature of the estimate iB the relative rate of growth of the different sections of the Union. A stern chase Is a long chase, tut there are Indications that eventually the fourteen southern states, with a present population of 31,498,456, according to the estim ate, will be overtaken by the Pacific coast, embracing the commonwealths usually Included in that group. Ac cording to the estimate, the ten states California, Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mex ico, Oregon, Utah and Washington made gains aggregating- 1,568,796, while the southern states, which counted 29,271,233 within their bor ders in 1910, as against 6,669,856 in the Pacific coast group, only added 2,227,223 to the figures of 1910,' in creasing their total to 31,498,456. A simple percentage calculation will show that the Pacific coast rate of in crease was enormously greater than that of the south and holds out a prospect of the stern chase proving successful in the long run. across the water, and there la report It should be delivered.
