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." They will

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

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. Consu

DENVER SHOWED
MUCH ENTERPRISE
"Denver, tho enterprising city
where tho national committee la
making rendy for tho nnttonal con
vention of the Democratic party on
July 7th, Is delighted at tho results
of securing n national convention
as a means of attracting attention to
horsolf," snld a well known travel
ing man to a reporter at ono of the
hotels yo3tordny.
"Originally the securing of tho na
tional Democratic convention was In
the nature of an experiment. Tho
residents of Denver had In mind nn
exploit that would put Donvor and
Colorado In the public cyo nnd tho
bringing of n nntlonnl convention to
Donvor wns considered tho best wuy
to accomplish this result. Tho peo
ple out thero are moro delighted
thnn they over oxpected to be. They
considor the monoy Invested In tho
vonturo woll repaid already In tho
now dignity Donvor has among tho
dtlos of te country nnd tho ndded
title it glvos her to tho name of
'Convention City.'
"Ono of tho first things tho citi
zens of Donvor did in getting tho
conventions plnns working wns to
circulate a subscription list that
tontled $100,000 when It hnd gone
tho rounds of tho prominent citi
zens. This sum was offored tho
nntlonnl Domocrnttc commlttco to
holp pny tho oxponsos of tho conven
tion on condition thnt tlioy bring It
lo Donvor nnd lot tho citizens of
thnt city nsslst In making It tho
greatest convention over hold. This
offer wns accepted and tho addition
nl p'nns for tho convention wont on.
"Mnybo you thing Donvor citizens
ni'G not public spirited! I never
heard of anything Uko It. Listen to
this: Evory dollar on tho subscrip
tion list was pnld In full nnd In the
hands of tho Domocrntlc Nntlonnl
Commlttco nwny back In March.
"Now they havo raised an ad
ditional sum to holp ontortnln tho
dologntes and visitors. Tho prepara
tions nro tho most olnbornto I have
over hoard of. Whon you rench
Donvor there will bo n man nt tho
steps of tho Pullman couch to take
your satchel and direct you to your
cnrrlngo and thenco to your hoto1.
No matter if It la night or dny or
how many delegates or visitors com-j,
they will all recelvo this nttentlou.
rnlly B00 uniformed men will be
in tho service of receiving those
who com to tho convention and giv
ing them directions. Besides thee
puld attendants thoro will be com
mtteoi from ovory state In tho
Union to rocolve tho delegates from
each stato a3 they arrive. Each
state delegation will havo a section
of tho town set aside for it and ap
propriately decorated. This schomo
will be carried all through the con
vention proceedings. Evory effort
will bo made to have tho delegates
go away saying Denver is tho great
convention city."
