, IIK future greatnoss of th« United States u a nation of world-wide power U a them*
that baa baen exploited by many orator*, poet* and artlaU In day* cone by; but the
following quite unknown Un*e from the quill of Philip Freneau—written prior to the
Declaration of Independence—merit u*pedal notice now that a national cactus U
neartag completion:
"1 *ee, I i
Freedom1* eitablUbed reign, cltle* and man
Numerous as land* upon the ocean shore.
And empire* rising where the *un descends I
The Ohio soon shall glide by many a town
Of note! and where the Mlaalaalppl'a aLream
By foreata shaded, now runs sweeping on.
Natlona aha'l (row, and atataa not Inaa In fame
Than Oreece and Rome of old."
This verse, composed before the union of
the IS colonies, was probably criticised by the
practical man of the author'a generation aa
being manufactured from the "stuff that
dreama are made of." But to Freneau'* Inspired
▼Ulan the changes be foretold were cleanly out-
lined la time's magic mirror. If the poet were
all re today and could read the marvelous
census figures which come dally from our fed-
eral capltol he would And not only every word
e( his prophecy fulfilled, but discover that dee-
tlny had added even greater surprlaee to the
prediction.
The first national csnau* waa taken during
Washington'* administration la 1790. Jefferson,
then secretary of state and under whose direc-
tion the count waa made, expressed disappoint-
ment when the final figures—14—ware
shown him. On August 24. 1791, he wrote to
William Carmicbael as follows:
"I Inclose you a copy of our census, which
■a far as It Is written In black Ink Is founded
•a actual returns; what Is In red Ink being
eoajectural but very near the truth. Mak-
'og vary small allowance for omissions, which

we know to have been very great, we
may safely say we are above four mll-
HOM."
Thomas Jefferson personally as-
sumed the responsibility of correcting
the first census, and with red ink made
Increases la figures, as well sa sup-
plying such other numbers as he
deemed correct He then, in his offi-
cial capacity. Inform sd ths world
through our foreign representatives
that the federal count waa Incorrect,
but with hla addltlona and amenda-
tiona could be relied on.
When the second dec-ennlal count
was completed Jefferson was presi-
dent. and a letter written by him In
1801 contalna tbe following assertlona:
"You will perceive that tbe Increase
of numbers (population) during tbe
last ten years—1790-18DO—proceeding
In geometrical ratio, promises rapid
growth and the prospect It holds up to
ua, not with a view to tbe Injuries It
may enable ua to do others In some fu-
ture day. but to the settlement of tbe
extensive country atill remaining va-
cant."
Tbla second cenaus was Intensely
gratifying to Jefferaon and he assumed
the role of prophet again, but proved
over-enthualaatlc when he declared
that tbe American population would
continue to increaae at the aame ratio.
Such waa not the caae, nor la there
any each definite thing a* an exact
ratio In population Increaae. In 1813
he wrote to Humboldt:
"In fifty years more (1863) the
United Statea alone will contain fifty
mlllloua of Inhabitant*."
But the population In 1863 waa fig-
ured at 33,218,117, ahowlng that Jeffer-
aon'* reliance on a definite ratio In-
rreaao led him about 17.000,000 too
high. In 1815 we find Jefferson writing
aa follows to Mr. Maury:
"Forty millions In forty years, and
la sixly years eighty millions! Tills
would be 1815 plua 80, making It In
1876 aa 80.000.000."
But at that date the enumeration re-
sulted In 44,388.207, or about 36.000,000
below Jefferson* estimate. Jefferaon
waa a careful atudent of natural In-
creaae In the human family, but hla
knowledge as to what death, marriage
and Immigration would do for a nation
was meager. U that great (talesman
«ould not form a fair calculation, It la
safe to *ay that It would be a bopeleaa
Job for anyone to Indulge In predic-
tion* of what the population will be
fifty years hence, accord lag to geo-
metric ratio. Abraham Lincoln waa
another chief executive who eadeav-
ored to solve the populatloa pustl*.
Uke Jefferson, he attempted to Indi-
cate the exact figures, but acquitted
hlmaalf with more credit la the prob
lam of humaa fluctuatloas. Lincoln
i time practically proposed aa
lat to the constltutloa of the
Halted Statea, with a view to emanci-
pating the elave*. aad paying the
south era owners a reasonable pur
chase price. Ha pointed out that after
the slavee had passed Into the posses
eloa of the federal government they
eould be liberated, aad the dreadful
.elvtl strife thus bs brought to a closs.
la eadaavoting to further this project
IJaoola *et out to foretell the great
aaaa la populatloa of the federal unloa
at the census periods of 1900-1910
(present census), 1920 snd 1930. The
argument he sent to congreaa In 1862
read aa followa:
"The aggregate sum necessary for
compensated emancipation, of course,
would be lsrge. But It would require
no ready cash, nor bonds even, any
faster than the emancipation progreas-
ea. Thla might not and probably would
not cloae before thb end of the 37
Tears; at that Ume we aball probably
have a hundred million* to share the
burden, Inatead of thirty-one millions
a now. And not only so, but tbe In-
creaae of population may be expected
to conUnue for a long time after that
period aa rapidly aa before, becauae
our territory will not have become
full."
He then proceeded to analyze the
SS irffSJKrs r.iir:- •=. -rs. -i
perflclal eatlmate would eaaily make
the loaa st ten million, placing the
lopulatlon of 1910 at 101.972.266—or
about 38,000,000 less than Lincoln's
ac'ual count.
The next and last president to show
definite Interest In the population
problem was Wllllsm McKlnley. His
remarks on the subject are historical,
alnce he waa the first of our chief ex-
ecutives to estimate the equation of
population on the basis of tbe mean-
ing of the signature of the nation, or
the great seal of the United States.
In 1899, Just prior to the census of
1900, President McKlnley was the
guest of Chicago. He was called upon
to respond to the toast, "The Oreat
Seal of the United SUtea," aad spoke
In part, aa follows:
'On tbe reverse side of the great
seal of the United SUtea authorized
by congress June 20, 1782, and adopt-
ed as the seal of the United 8Utea or
America after Its formation under the
federal constitution. Is a pyramid,
signifying atrength and duration."
Having deaciibed the meanlnga of
the additional emblem, tbe preaident
continued:
In peace we have been algnally
blessed, and our progreaa haa gone on
uiiohecked and ever lncreaalng in the
Intervening years. In boundless
v.erlth of soil and mine and timber
nature ha* favored ua. while all races
United Statea growa at the decennial
ratio of 34.60 per cent. He aubmltted
the following table to verify hla deduc-

Lincoln'* calculation to have overshot
the mark by 46,946,260.
However. It Is only fair to remem-
ber that Llnooln's estimates were
based on the possibility of the war
comlug to a sudden termlnstlon after
ths people had learned of his inten-
tions regarding the alavs purchase.
But the death struggle wsot forward
relentlessly, aad nothing was done
toward carrying out the Ufe-eavlng
aad humans policy advocated by the
ffreat preaident. Therefor* the above
decreaae from hla estimates must bs
allowed to his credit, since hundreds
of thousands of ths mals population
were killed outright on tha battle-
fields, and othsrs dlsd latsr as a result
of their wounds, or dlseaas contracted
through the privatloas they suffered
It waa the flower of youth that waa
offsred ss sacrifice to tbe war-god by
both north and south, and It Is an In-
teresting surmise as to what extent
the contamination of ths fraUcldal
atrifs decreased the populatloa. A au-
lS9n, and our eatlmated population to-
day made by the governors of the
atatea la 87,803.231.
"We have grown from 13 atatea to
46. We have annexed every variety of
territory, from the coral reefa and
cccoanut grove* of Key West to tbe
icy reglona of northern Alaaka."
After dwelling on tbe Immenalty of
the population and Its future destiny,
he concluded:
' After 123 years the pyramid sUnds
unbroken. It has had some sever*
shocks, but It remalna Immovable. It
batl endured the atorma of wnr, enly
to be a'.ronger. It atands firmer and
g'vee greater promlae of duration than
when the fathers made It the aymbol
of their faith."
Piealdent McKlnley was correct In
stating thst the founders of our na-
tion adopted the dealgn of an uufln-
lalied pyramid, over which wns placed
tbe eye of Providence, and beneath It
ti.e date 1776, with a later motto set-
ting forth the Idea of a "new order of
thingk." But he omitted to mention
tLat the reverae or pyramid aide of
the great aeal waa never fugrave.1,
and never -nployed aa a part of the
signature of the nation. Such Is the
case, however, snd therefore the unfin-
ished pyramid la an unknown factor In
heraldic Americana.
The forefathers Intended this device
to mean that not any generation of
American* would sse ths apex or
crest of iwpulatlon—that It woull go
on to eternity, and the oope*tones of
o&r population's strength and repub-
lican triumphs be placed by divine
and not human bands. It waa a grand
symbolic conception, but aageraeas to
posasas a seal, and slowness la hav-
ing It executed, changed our national
signature from a ssal enpendant to a
seal en placard, thua robblag later gsa-
eratlons of a splendid emblem of pow-
er and numerical greatness.
Nothing lllustratss ths magnificent
march of western civilisation better
than tbe discussion la congress Imms-
dlately following the census of 1820.
aad ths said dlscussloa alao portrays
the progress la transportation, as wsll
as tbs western spread of populatloa.
At that date a Mr. Smyth of Virginia
while addressing tbe house of r~rre-
M-nutlves regarding the advisability
of lending aid to or ahowlng Interest
In the region weat of the Stony moun-
tains—as the "Rocklea" were then
called— made tha following aaaertlona
"Tbla federation of atatea can never
be safely extended beyond th* Stony
moun*«ina. I can conceive that mutual
Interest In the Mississippi valley may.
because of common river facilities,
help bind the people to th* union: but
beyond the mountains—I can see
few sUtea formed Just west and bor-
dering on the Misalaaippl—but turthrr
west the federation system must not
be attempted.'
In the senate Mr. Dlckerson of New
Jersey slao entered a vigorous protest
In these words:
"The distance that a member of
oongress from the state of Oregon (all
west of the Rocky mounUlns waa then
known aa Oregon) would be obliged to
travel In coming to the aeat of gov-
ernment and returning home would be
9,200 mllea. If he should travel at tb*
rate of thirty miles a day It would
require 206 days; allowing for Sun-
days forty-four, and It would amount
to S50 days. Thla would allow the
member a fortnight to reat himself at
Washington before be should com-
mence his Journey home. It would bs
more expeditious, however, to come
by wster around Capa Horn, or to
pass through Behring straits round
the north coast of this continent to
Baffin's bay, thence through Davis'
straits to ths Atlantic, and so on to
Waahlngton. It Is true that this pass-
age Is not yet discovered, except on
our maps, but It will be, aa seen sa
Oregon becomes a state."
Th* concluding words of Mr. Dicker-
son's sddress were, of course, spoken
In sarcastic vsin. At the time of this
unique argument the geographic cen-
ter of the United States was at s
point near PitUburg. while tbe center
of population waa at a point nineteen
miles southwest of Moorfleld, West
Virginia. In eighty years the geo-
graphic center haa been moved weat-
ward to a point northwest of tb* cen-
ter of Kansaa, while the center of pop
ulatlon la at Nashville, Brown county,
Indiana. Strange Indeed are the
change* which have taken place since
1810, and remarkable the transforma-
tion from tbe census of 1790—when
the geographic center was near Wash-
ington city's present location, and the
center of population marked aa twen-
ty-three miles east, not west, of the
city of Baltimore.
Odd aa It may seem, the movement
