Newspaper Page TextDAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM. OREGON. MONDAY, JULY 0, 1008 11 rlic England of 1050. The annual reports of tho Itogls-i.n-.fipneral of Births, Death and Marriages may not at first sight np-' near very promising imuunm jo me Lwsnaner roador. But he makes a great mistake It he overlooks their importance or the valuo of tho de ductions that can be drawn from their masses of figures. From them w0 are able dimly to forecast tho fu ture, and to see, as In a glass darkly what will bo the social condition of this country in the next generation When, year after year, their statis tics reveal the same movement, there can be but 1,tt,e doul)t ot the ten dencies at work or of tho forces shaping the destiny of Britain. The (Ir3t fact that appears Is thnt the England of 19G0 will have a sta tionary population. Unless thero 's an earthquake' chango tho birth rate II1 continue to fall, and by nil ap pearances with Increasing velocity, It has been docllnlng; steadily over, since 187C, when It reached the high- watermark of 36.4 por1000 of pop - ulatlon, to which It gradually moved , up from the period sometimes called , tho "Hungry monies." tiiq flguro for England and Wales last year was only 26.3 births per 1000, so that In 31 years tho loss has boon 10.1 per 1000. Moreover, the fall last year was the hoavlost over rocordod In any slnglo year. Wo have, then, to face tho prospect of nn England which will resemble Franco In that tho population will stand still or only advance through Immigration. Hitherto somo part of the loss of tho birth rate has been mndo good by a decrease In the denth rate, In which tho fall between 1876 and 1907 has been from 20:9 to 15 denths per 1000. But this Is a pro cess which clearly cannot continue Indefinitely. A second fact which appenrs from this concurrent decline of the birth nnd death rates Is that the England of I960 will be a country with far more nged persons and with far fewer young people. Thero will probably bo a falling oft in the gonornl health nnd vigor of tho community, nnd, perhnps, a loss of that ardont idealism which at taches to youth and which is tho most splendid virtue of thoso who havo not passed through tho bitter waters of disillusionment. Yet nnothor feature of this society which many of us will llvo to see, will be tho smallness of Its families The largo families will havo died out except among tho aliens. It is In tho alien districts of London thnt tho largest fnmlllC3 nro to bo found nt tho present moment. Tho law that tho Inferior stock multiplies nnd kills tho superior will bo soon nt work more vigorously than over. This Is one explanation of tho declining birth rnte nmong tho working class todny, for British working- class par ent . of good antecedents, tn tho words of tho American econom'ot, General Francis Walker, used of tho native stock of tho Unltod States, havo "booomo Increasingly imwllU ing to bring forth sonsand daugh ters who will bo compelled to com pote In tho mnket for Inbor nnd In the walks of lifo with tho3o whom they do not recognize as of tholr own grade and condition."

And thus, gradual ly, Inch by Inch, tho lower standard of living will croach upon the high er, unlosa It he checked by legisla tive means. Even then the battlo Is often only transferred to another field, for the strugglo between the standards Is world-wide, fierce and persistent. London Dally Mall. A Lofty South American City. Oruro Is n city of 20,000 lnhabli tants, with a commercial future- which is of interest to everybody who expects to do business In Boliv ia either in the way of mining, rail roading or Btipplylrig merchandise. Tho city Is located In the heart of the great central plain at an altitude of 12,000 feet and In tho mldBt of nn extonBivo mining region. It Is about G7G miles distant from the Pacific coast ports of Antofagasta and Mollendo respectively. Tho railway from Antofagasta has been tn operation for several years. Tho through connection to Mollendo rncrogs ibko iiucaca win uo maao in July when tho contrnl section of the railway system which, tho , Speyor Bank Syndicate is constructing is completed. Commercial travelers and tourists will then have tho op portunity of reaching Bolivia from ono port and leaving by the other port. This through trip will bo ad vantageous In tho chnnce It nfford3 to note the resources and tho com mercial possibilities of tho country. Tho population of Oruro Is cosmo politan, Including English Gormnno, French, Italians, Americans, Chil eans and Peruvians. This Is duo to Its position ns u mining rontor One of tho grentest tin mines Is In tho heart of tho city itself. Other tin and silver mlno3 surround It. Among the bc3t-known mines nro the Socavon, tho San Jose, tho Itoi and tho Merccdos. Thoro nro nlso many smnllor mines. Tho oro concentrntC3 from points distant 1G0 mllos nnd moro nro brought Into Or uro by pack trains of llamas and burros, and then shipped out over tho railways. Small smelters nro 12 to 16 mllos dlstnnt nt Machamnrnca. Tho political administration of the department Is centered at Oruro, which Is tho headquarters of tho per fect and tho subordinate officials. An Important branch of tho pqlltlcnl administration Is tho custom-hous. Slnco nn export tax is levied on all mlncrnl products, tho lmportnnco of an interior custom-houso at a com mon shipping contor will bo under stood. Hitherto tho limitation on the growth of Oruro has boon tho lack of railway facllltlos for the Intorlor points. This conditon is changing, and within a few yonrs the city wltl become tho .railway cross-roads of Bolivia. After tho connection with Lake Tltlcaca Is comploted tho build ing of tho .branch lines will begin. Ono -of these starting from somo point on tho existing rnilway be tween Oruro and Uyunl will roach Potosl. Another lino will run to tho qlty of Coclmbambn, which Is Itself an important commerclnl point and Is In tho contor ?f n rich agricultural rtm CASTORIA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought CASTOBW Bears the m Signature A& (Jl Use ji For Over Thirty Years valley. Thp Cochabamba lino ulti mately will bo prolonged to tho Ghl more river, and will thus give n railway outlet from tho tropical re gions to Oruro. The commercial future of the city has not yet beon discounted. Whon tin was at the top-notch figures there was unusual activity and some in crease In population, but hardly what would bo called a boom. Tho depression In the mining Industry, which caused somo of tho smaller mines to shut down and others to re strict tholr operations, resulted In -a temporary decrease In the number of Inhabitants, but the recovery from this Is already felt. Though tho com mercial and mining situation Is quiet, Oruro has lost nono of Its pres tige. The prospect la that it will continue to grow steadily, in addi tion to Its advantages as a mining center It will bo tho headquarters of the railway companies, which will havo their shops and roundhouses established hero, and will provide means for a considerable population of artlbans and mechanics.
