The population of Indianapolis, cording to the census figures given out last night, is S14.194, a gain of *4.5 per cent, in ten years, which is a very gratifying it crease. In the last ten years some *0.090 people hare come to Indianapolis to lire. While an official analysis of the source of the growth is not available, It is believed that fully 90 per cent, of the newcomers are American eltisens. most ef th^n Boosters, who have come to Indianapolis first to seek broader fields for their talents and second because it is a good, wholesome, solid city.

What is noeded is that men should widen th* circle, and carry Into the larger world that sens* of loyalty to the general order which they show in ths family relation. Though that is all that is necessary. It is a great deal, and the task is difficult. Loyalty to nation wo can understand, but whenever a man begins to speak of loyalty to people of other nation* th* separatists—who have been responsible for most of the wars—are greatly alarmed, or pretend to be, lest ths world should drift,, or be plunged Into what they contemptuously call "a flabby intarnationaUkm. Of course this is vary foolish, sines nothing of the kind ia maant. St. Paul was quite sure that.
