THE OPERATORS STRIKE,
Its Spread Through the Country
BUSINESS NOT STOPPED.
Position Of the Company.
GARD FROM THE OPERATORS,

New YORK, January 5.-The telegraph
operators of thirty-four principal cities
are now on q strike on account OF the
alleged reduction of the wages OF two
operators in San Francisco. Nearly
all the operators, male and female, in
this city have joined in the strike
Business is not stopped, only retarded
The Western Union telegraph opera
tors struck yesterday afternoon, nearly
all leaving off work. The company say
there is no ground in fact for the strike,
that no salaries have been reduced, and
that they can permit no combination or
organization of men to dictate who or
how many persons they shall employ
for the transaction of their business.
They approve the action OF Mr. Mum
ford. In reply to the proposition OF the
operators that the members of the tele'
graphers organization who have already
sss=yr-r,smsrk be restored to their for
iner positions, the company declined to
act, for want of Off cial knowledge. The
telegraph officers say that part of the
men have struck, but there is force
enough on hand to perform the service.
The operators last night adopted
q card to their brethren through
out the country, asking united
action; the issue is life or
death, as we'll as to sustain the San
Francisco brethren. They accept the
challenge cheerfully, say they control
all the important telegraphic points in
the United States, aud ask their brother
operators outside the organization not
to come in and fill their places.
CINCINNATI, January 5.-The striking
operators have held meetings and re-
ceived dispatches. None have yielded.
San Francisco, January 5.-Thc tel
sgraph operators strike continues. No
Interruption of business, and the Il an
agemept are confident there will be
none. The operators are sangnine the
company will be compelled to accede
to their demands.

CENSUS OF AsHTABULA VILLAGE AND TewN
We are indebted to Deputy HUNT for the
result of his labors of enumeration in this
town and village. That OF the village does
not come quite up to the local pride OF our
citizens. Our weakness, however, in this re-
.spect is not peculiar TO this locality. and any
disapr ointment that may be felt, will be very
much mitigated by the knowledge that many
other places share pretty freely in the same
'ttisappoiz ztment. The census of the last pre-
vious decade, put the population of this vii
lage at Alb, showing by comparison with the
present figures. that our increase has been
nearly 600-5S2-while that of Painesville has
been but little over 60e-G32. The ratio ofin-
crease, therefore, is in favor Of Ashtabua-
The census returns in soAne counties are clear
,ly erroneous, as published in sonae ,ofo daily
contemporaries. If our confidence &n the rela-
tive proportion of houses and farms to inhabi-
tants, is to regulate our faith in the enumera-
ton of people, it will fall far below what a
census return sheuld command. A number
Of such cases, in other counties, have been col
lated by a friend, which are rather strong
ones. With regard TO the accuracy of our
friend HUNT, of this, and SMEAD of the paines-
vile division, there can, we think, be scarcely
question, so that the foregoing comparison
is probably pretty correct one
