IHE NEXT CENSUS. - The Census Board at

OF each, and what inquiries, embraced within the
census Of 1910, do not apply to the plan and had
better be dispensed with, to the admission of more
important considerations. Anxious, says the Board
TO arrange the preliminary measures in such man.
ner as will be to the best exhibition of the varied
interests of the Union, they have authorized the
preparation Of blanks to differ somewhat as the re.
quirements Of the different sections may suggest
In blanks sent to the Northern States, to include

cane sugar, would be as superhuous as to include
productions exclusively Northern, in blanks sent

portance of the subject, and the solicitation of the
Board, will insure an immediate response to the
inquiries.

BENTON IN Missouri The Missouri papers
contain accounts Of an open rupture between Col.
Benton and party Of his former democratic friends.
1t took place at Liberty, in Clay county, on the
10th inst, Col. Benton had given notice of an in
lention TO address the people. Ills opponents, by
concert, got possession of the Court house and re.
tanned it. Benton accordingly repaired to a grove
in the vicinity, and addressed the people at length
After he concluded, his opponents went to the
Court house, heard an address from one of their
friends and passed resolutions adverse to him
calling upon MIN to obey tin instructions of the
General Assembly or resign his seat" These they
circulated in every direction, we believe, as the
proceedings of the meeting which Col. Benton had
addressed. This has brought out appeals, counter
statements, and very angry controversy, in which
very bitter feelings had been manifested.
