As to the number Of people who cannot
read, We zee no reason to suppose the re.
turns incorrect. Almost everybody reads
either English or German. The matter of
school attendance has been much in,prov-
ed since the census was taken. Our far
mer's houses are much scattered and an
unusually large proportion Of the children
are too young to attend school at any dis.
lance from home; while the toll and pow
erty Of recovering from the grasshopper
devastation Of IS, and the necessity for
employing every one old enough to work
operated against the establishment Of
schools. It must be remembered that this
County is very recansly settled, that the
dwelling house must be built before the
school house, and our distance from sup.
ply market, the means ofsubsistence must
be raised out Of the ground, the threshing
machine bought, the mill built, and the
road to get to it, before the bread can go
into the school boys dinner basket -
Then an orthodox Baptist and German
Catholic who do not understand word Of
each others language, cannot get up
schools together very readily.

Statistics.

ST. "fAUk, Sept. 10, 1901.
En-. D1M.-For some reason the officer
who "took the census" Of your county did
not classify his enumerations under sepa-
rate township divisions, but massed them
together without any attention to geo.
graphical distinctions. For this reason,
l am unable at present to give you the re-
suits of the census Of Stearns County, un-
der township divisions. BY the kindness
Of citizen Of St. Cloud, who has classified
the census sheets for me under the proper
geographical heads, I shall be able TO give
you more minute particulars by aud by
The following is an abstract Of the gen
eral results Of the enumeration of popula-
tor.
No. Of Dwelling Houses.
No ofFamilies ........... 1850
No. OF White Males
No. Of White Females. 1856
No. Of Colored Females 20

who cannot read sad WRITE.

There are no Deaf and Dumb, Insane, ldiotie,
Paupsrs or Cenvcts.
The number both Of families and dwellings
IL greater in Stearus County than in the State
1t large-the latter very considerably greater.
The number Of uninhabited tenements il your

eut tense 2o7.
The number Of persons to one

No. persons to one family in
State at large

No. persons to enc dwelling in
the State at
The males, you will perceive, number S05
more than the females. This part lie sugges-
tive Of q social want which, though not At all
local in its character, could be brought to tho
attention OF the Eastern public through no
more effective medium than your journal which
believe is, a. it on; hit to be, favorite with
that useful portion Of society who alone can
supply the great public necessity Of our State.
The school attendance Of your County is
nearly thirty three per cent. less than the Az
erage.
sThe returns Of married persons and of those
who cannot read and write are undoubtedly
incorrect; and that is the only comment which
can be made upon them at present.

paper slips you sent Us that the Charleston

This Is false. No such act or decree
