The Next United States Census.

The taking of United States CEN
sus is an event of great Importance.
Much legislation depends upon it,
and it is the basis for the decennial
apportionment of members of Con-
gress among the States. The salary
of the superintendent is $4,000, hav-
ing been raised $1,000 since 1880.
There will be ten chiefs of division,
a disbursing clerk, two stenographers
and 175 supervisors. A great army
of enumerators will be employed,
who will be paid the same as in 1880,
except for special work. The COM
pensation for each farm will be fif-
teen cents and each productive in
dustry twenty cents, an increase of
five cents each over 1880, when many
enumerators resigned because the pay
was too small. The total cost is limit
ed to $6,O0O,OOO. The bill providing
for the next census calls for many
new features, not embraced in any
previous enumeration, but the eX-
perience gained in former years
ought to count for much in expedit-
ing the work and the published work
will be considerably less bulky than
that of 1880.

A statement prepared in the in
ternal revenue bureau shows that the
production of oleomargarine from
July 1, 1888, to December 81, 1888,
was Is, ,467 ,697 pounds, being a de-
cided increase over that of the pre-
ceeding six months. 1t is estimated
at the bureau that if the present rate
of production is maintained, the
amount made during the fiscal year
ending June 80 next will reach forty
five million pounds. The production
for the last fiscal year was 1926, ,527.

Col. A. S. Tracy, Department
Commander of VT. O.. A. r., has
issued letter calling the attention of
the people, and especially members
of the Grand Army, to the fact that
no means has yet been taken to per-
petuate the memory of this patriotic
order, by placing suitable tablet in
the Bennington battle monument,
now in process of erection. 1t is es-
timated that S4OO should be raised
for the purpose, and it is proposed to
raise it by voluntary contributions.
1t is a worthy object.

tween the middle of the year 1882 and 1884.
This and the vicious principles upon which
this corporation was Instituted and conduct
ed is sufficient to account for this failure,
and my opinion is that il the men connected
been half as magnanimous, half
as chivalrous, half as desirous
that it should succeed as he was, and had
done a tithe of what he did by his own con-
tributions and personal credit, the thing
could have been continued along until the
present good times came, and the company
could have gotten far enough from tho shore
to spread all of its sails and catch all of the
winds of prosperity. But this was not to be.
committed all he had on earth to keeping
this institution alive, and in a fit of panicky
and pusilanimous irresolution, certain gen
tlemen rushed over to Saltwater and pulled
the, king post from out his enormous edifice
and let the roof down through all the stories
into the cellar. Now, if your honor please,
it is well known that the relations of Mr..
Sabln and myself for some years have not
been entirely pthsy cordial ,nds but yai will
me more pleasure to state as my
abiding conviction, derived from a careful
persual of this record that no man in the
course of the administration Of this business
has become as unscathed and clear as man
of integrity, honor and chivalrous generosity
from out of these proceedings as d. NJ.

tag in Person.
0BERLIN, Jan. 1.-THE landtag was
opened to-day. The emperor in his
speech opening the session, declared
all the foreign relations of the country
were friendly. He said that during his
recent visits to friendly sovereigns, ha
gained the conviction that Germany
might confidently cherish the hope of
peace. The continued blessings OF
peace are shown in gratifying manner
by the improved situation of artisans.
The financial position of the country is
satisfactory. An increase of 2U0, 100000
marks in the savings banks has proved
that trade has improved. The salts.
factory character OF the finances has
enabled the government to further
reduce taxation. Among the measures
announced by the emperor to be
introduced i'm the landtag are bills to
further increase the emoluments of
clergy of all denominations: to improve
the position of teachers in the national
elementary schools, and for regulating
the system of tax. Having regard OK
the admittedly satisfactory results OF the
development of the railways, the as
signment of extraordinary resources to
further extend them will be asked for.
A credit will be asked for the relief Of
the sufferers by the floods in 1888. A
measure will be introduced dealing with
the general administration at POsen.
The ceremony of opening the landtsg
was conducted with great pomp. The
minister OF state, court dignitarieS,
diplomats, and many generals were i'm
attendance. When the emperor entered
the White hall he was enthusiastically
cheered. His speech was frequently
applauded. Prince Bismarck was not
present. The emperor was heartily
cheered as he left the chamber.
Prince Bismarck speaks in the reichs,.
tag on Wednesday next. The uppei
house of the Prussian diet was opened
to-day with patriotic addresses by the
president and vice-presidents. En-
thusiastic cheers were given for the
emperor. Count Won Ratibon was re-
elected president, Herr Won Rachow
first president, and Herr Miguel second
vice president,

One was brought in to-day, however, at
sight of whom she threw up her hands
and exclaimed in terror, "Take him

herself, however, she expressed some
uncertainty, and at her request the lynch

him away to swing him up before he
can be rescued. The sheriff sent dep
uties there to-day, who found the crowd
quiet, waiting for the verdict of Mrs.

were base calumnies, and challenged
him to justify them from the tribune OF

would refer his accusations to a jury,

Of deputies, and would send seconds tG

marks. M. Floquet replied that he
would neither retract what he rad said,
nor receive NJ. Laur's seconds, and re-

to justify his statements. M. Lais,

LONDON, Jan. 14.-Rumors attribu,
ting to the government various schemes
affecting Ireland are in active circula,
ton ana rapidly multiplying. A writer
in the Star asserts that the Irish office is
preparing bill for submission to par.
lament at an early date, to compel
Lord Clanricarde to sell to his Irish
tenants the holdings they now occupy,
the bill fixing the price they shall pay.
Another writer, claiming to speak upon
authority. states that the ministry will
Introduce a measure to release Irish
tenants from the payment of arrears.
The latter statement finds few believers
in its full purport; but tine conviction
is rapidly growing that the government
has found it necessary, under pressure
from within as we'll as without the
Conservative party, to deal with the
question of arrears, and will pass
measure which will afford tenants at
least partial relief from the burdens
imposed by the arrearages which
it is impossible for them to pay in full.

night, got drunk, bought new Win
chester and started home, firing pro-
miscuously at all the stock and people

stock, and when warned by Briggs, he
fired three shots at him, but failed to
hit him. Briggs came to town and got
officers who arrested the desperate.
Fortunately no one was shot. but num-
