About the Census Projections by Col. Richard T. Hinton
Col Richard T Hinton surveys the 1900 census prospects noting a population near 77 million, up 24 percent from 1890, driven by immigration. He cites higher gains than the census bureau forecast and predicts wealth growth in farming and mining areas with less debt and more secure homes in the west and south. He also foresees significant population gains in the trans Mississippi and Mississippi valley regions, with the new west earning three fifths of the decade rise.
