UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eu

ment by n mass of historical refer
ences which I hnve gathered, my be
lief Is that Oregon will double its

who lias recently returned from tbo
annual meeting of tbo American llis-
torlcal association, held in Indianap
olis. Dr. Schnfer, who Is the head of
the history department at the Uni
versity of Oregon, Is the author of
"History of the Pacific Northwest,"
and has contributed many original
papers to the lending 'historical pub
lications, the latest of which, "The
Uritish Attitude Toward tho Oregon
Question, 1S15-1S JO," appeared In
the current issue of tho American
Historical Iteview.
"Oregon is now standing at the
margin of a new era in population
development," cont inner Professor
Schafor. "This is the one definite
impression that was left upon
mind as a result of my recent
. -
through the states of North Dakota,
Wisconsin, Indiana and Kansas. In
addition I discussed the population
problem with authorities from Illi
nois, Minnesota and Iowa.
"The whole region of tho upper
Mississippi valley, commonly known
as the middle west, Is facing at this
time a peculiar problem In the com
parative arrest of Its growth In popu
lation. These states aro practically
at a standstill In the matter of popu
lation increase.
"Tho significance of this condition
is simply that these states have pass
ed their pioneer stage, which has
been marked off by tho exhaustion
of their supply of cheap land. The
land will no longer respond to tho or
dinary methods of agriculture.
"In almost every case It can be
shown from tho census returns that
theso states have had at least one
decade, after their population had
attained very respectable propor
tions, in which that population went
up so rapidly as to doublu In a sin
gle ton-year period.
"Wo find that Ohio more than
doubled her population botween 1S1!
and 1S20, and nearly doubled it again
between 1S20 nnd 1SP.0; that Indiana
more than doubled in the '..0s and
fully doubled once moro In tho '10s;
that Illinois nearly doubled In the
MOs; that Iowa more than trebled I
in tbo T0s. and moro than doubled
again in tho '00s; that Wilconsin,
Mlnnesota and Kansas all had their
decades of especially rapid growth. I
"Now during tho entire period the
increase has been so lorgo that those
societies linvo regarded themselves,
ns rapidly growing societies. Tiuu i
why they fuel so keenly tho revela
tion of tho recent foderal census,
which suggests that tho groat prob
lem in tho future will bo to find
ways of onco moro Itroduclng a gain
in population.
"To carry out tho comparison, the
state of Oregon has now reached the
point where, as suggested by tho his
tory of other western states, It can
hopo to grow most rapidly. Indeed, If
history Is any guide in theso matters,
wo aro fully warranted In oxpeeting
that tho decade 1910-1920 will be
Oregon's time for developing its pop
ulation and going over into the soven
figuro column.
"If wo aro to assume that this ex
pectation is reasonable, the luferoncoj
Is that it wllyl Do wise tor me in-mm-of
this state to plan for this new
time. All of our operations, all of
our Institutions, all of our business
enterprises, must be planned with ref
erence to tho fact that wo shall be
operating for at least a generation
on a rapidly rising tide of popula
tion. For some years we can count
upon It being so rnpld as to put us
near tho 1.5on,u0o mark by 1920. i
