According to Dr. Joseph Cacca- vajo, who Is recognized as the highest authority on population and statistics of the Metropolitan District, the percentage of in¬ crease In population In Nassau County for periods of ten years since 1870 has been 15 per cent., from 1870 to 1880, 20 per cent., from 1880 to 1890, 24 per cent., from 1890 to 1900, and 35 per cent, from 1900 to 1910.
He predicts a 51 per cent In¬ crease for the ten years ending 1920, and 73 per cent increase for the ten years between 1920 and 1930.
The great growth In Nassau County Is on the South Side.
Growth spells opportunity.. Free- port is the centre of growth-and likewise of opportunity. A con¬ servative investor in property any¬ where from Lynbrook to Massa- pequa, who buys at fair value and Is able to hold that which he buys, may be sure of a safe and profit¬ able Investment.
No better time to buy a home than in the early spring. No com¬ munity will give you a more cor¬ dial welcome than Freeport and Its neighboring villages. From The Nassau Post, Feb. 20, 19H
The assemblman Is for easing the path to matrimony of such couples as live on fisher'n Island, which, as local geographers know, i» 17 miles. or Iwo hours sail for a single sticker from Soul hold and the town clerk's oflice.
Under the law applications for mar¬ riage licenses must be made in person al the town clerk's ollice. In summer when the soft winds sigh across the .fsunkissed sea, sailing over to the li¬ cense bureau would seem to be a ro¬ mantic mission for a sturdy young islander and his bride, we know at least one couple who found it so.
In winter it is different. There are time when it is impossible to get to the mainland. If a marriage is sched¬ uled for a sjiecilic date an unlooked for gale may up.set all calculations Just as It might upset a sailboat.
Assemblyman Talmage wo^ld cor- r-ecl. this In a bill now before the Le¬ gislature pioviding that persons living on an island l'> or more miles distant froili a tdwn'n (lerk's oflice. may take out marir.age liceii.ses before a justice of tile peace.
Fisher's island's call for relief ought to be answered. The mtrlmonlal S O S should not fal lon deaf ears at A1-, buy. We predict that Republicans, Democrats and Progressives will imile in moving the Talmage measure to the Governor, if it is not found that for marriage license business on Fisher's Island, the lown clerk at Southold al¬ ready lias llie power lo make the jus- ti(-e (if llie peace an acting deputy clerk.

PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION
It is a fad aa unfortunate as it is true, that the Public Service'^"omiiiis¬ sion, because ot its peculiar otlicial conception of duty to the peojile, has come lo b(? considered a conservative supporter of conditions as they are and au opponent of progress.
Not since the creation Of the com¬ mission has it voliintarlly correcUd a recognized transit abuse in the intei¬ est of the traveling public. It has been moved to activity by the per slsient prod of public opinion in near¬ ly every instance whert^ it has moved at all. fJlven an opportunity to pro¬ mote the public interest hy a direct act, it usually waves the opportunity aside and proceeds to the formulation of elaborate reports setting forth why the time li^ Inopportune. It Is a cir¬ cumlocution ollice deserter to argu¬ ment in favor of contentment. Its schedule never carries the word to¬ day. Its present is never nearer than next month.
Without the Public Service oCmmls. slon Long island time and again would have rpcelved serious attention from the railroads and utilUies corporations through direct protest or appeal on the part of committees of the people. In issues between the people and the railroads the commission's largest fuctlon has been that of a bulTer.
Prom th© viewpoint of the railroads the commission while helpful at limes in Its buffer capacity Is atother times an official red Hag to modern railroad¬ ing. The cross Island trolley project, so earnestly advocated by many ot our citizens. Is foredoomed to run the gauntlet of the commission. If a com¬ pany l^ Incorporated and seriously plans to engage in the work of build¬ ing and erecltng a railroad It will find the commission contesting every Inch of the way with the zeal ot « land owner fighting off a trespasser.
If the road 1« ever constr\lcted it will be made possible only by the ac¬ cumulative force of public opinion, for tbe commission will raise objections

DOC LICKNSP:—The ligures of that particular Item as spread upon the li¬ nanclal statement of the Rockville Centre Trustees would seem to show that the dawgs of Long Island are shunning that village as a habitat. Only 1222.20 were collected for li- (enses for the year ending .Marcli 1, 1914, as agaln.st $261.90 for tlie pi(>- vious twelve months. Again, the dis- burseinenls on account of dawgs for the past year were the enormous total of $.'',i;4.44 as ag'ainst $(;:!.9ri during the year previous. Once more, the bal¬ ance In the treasury lor this account was a mere ?9G.7G. On March 1, 191.'!, il was 1139.00 and the preceding .March 1, it was $211.OH. All of whu'h seems to show that there are no lov¬ ers of dawgs in the village hoard, and that dawgdoni gc'Uerally is wise to iliat fact. A further contemplation of the figurt's would seem lo indicate I bat a regular crusade had he(>n car¬ ried on against canines, probably ever since that fateful morning, ten months ago, wlien Captain Carty was scandal¬ ized by the frivolities of tlie dawg delegation gathered in his street. Such dawg gone sights he had never seen in all his twenty odd voyages around llie Horn. Thereupon he laid the whole subject bare before his fellow trustees. Trustee Russ got busy and thereafter a gentleman with city airs and a crab net was observed gather¬ ing in stray canines with all the skill of a New York dawg calc-litr.
