HEARING THE MILLION.
Soon Mr Von Dadelzsen, RegistrarGeneral, should have the joy of announcing that New Zealand's white population has reached a million. The arrivals for December totalled 5,612, and the departures 2,533, giving the Dominion an increase of 3,079. In December, 1907, the gain was 2,355 (arrivals 4,651, departures 2,296). Immigration is increasing the proportion of bachelors to spinsters. Last December's increase of 3,079 comprised 1,772 males (including 207 boys) and 1,39 7 females (221 under twelve years).
