that they prevent our moneyed men

Reduce the rate one-half and the

Ihe Forthcoming ceIsus, as compared
with any previous one, will be more
statistical and less scientific: more adap-
ted to an actual inventory of the nations
progress IN population, industry and
wealth, and less given to technology,
descriptions and scientific disquisitions.
The latest appliances for the rapid tabu-
latlon and presentation of tile results Of
the census have been adopted, and no
effort will be spared to present, at as
early date as possible, the entire re-
suits of another decade Of the nations
progress.
AS an illustration of the magnitude OF
this undertaking, it is only necessary to
mention the fact that it is estimated
that there will be employed in taking the
eleventh census 1000 0enumerators, 1000
clerks, from 800 to 800 special agents, ITS
supervisors and 25 experts. The number
OF published volumes will probably ex-
ceed those of the tenth census. The
calculation has been made that if the
inquiry in regard to veterans should yield
l,6OO,OOO names, it will take eight quarto
volumes of LOCO pages each to contain
them. Every effort win be mace to Sc
cure an early publication of results 70
that end the interior department has
leased buildings capable OF providing for
two thousand clerks, and the snperin-
tendent, by the aid Of specialists. has
mapped out in advance the scope Of every
special inquiry.
There will be special enumeration of
Indians, both on and off the reserva-
tions.

THE COMING CENSUS.

Some information Concerning the
Vast Scale on Which the Work is
to be Done.
The eleventh census of the population.
wealth and industry of the United States
will have the date of June l, 1890. Thor
ough preparation has already been made
for this census. The country has been
divided by Superintendent Porter, who
is editor of the New York Press and a
skilled official, into 175 districts.
The most elaborate preparations have
been completed for the enumeration of
the population.
The eleventh census. while comprising
all the Investigations undertaken in the
tenth. will include two additional and
important fAtures: An inquiry in re-
lation to the recorded Indebtedness of
private corporations and individuals,
and list of the names, organizations
and length of service of surviving sol
diers. sailors and marines and their wild
ows.

A Widows Hard Lot.

A funny incident occurred the other
day at Grand Forks. Widow Thompson.
who has been county charge made a
complaint to the commissioners that
Mr.. Koss had inveigled her into signing
away 25-foot lot that belonged to her.
The commissioners had Koss arrested
and he, seeing no avenue of escape,
offered to marry the widow. The latter
is entertaining the proposition.

WOULD HELP THE SETTLERS.
The Hauling of Ignite Coal to the
Various Towns at a Lower Rate.

The Hauling of Ignite Coal to the
Various Towns at a Lower Rate.
It is matter of inquiry why the rail
road companies running from the coal
mines of western North Dakota, do not
make a rate on Ignite coal that would
create ganeral demand for that fuel
At present the price for ton of this coal
delivered in this city is S4.715. General I'm
migration Agent Groat of the Northern
Pacific, in speaking about the matter the
other day, said he saw no reason why
this could not be hauled into the towns
along the line in North Dakota so that it
might be bought for $500 or $3.50 ton.
At this rate it would pay the consumer
to use the fuel which is getting better
each year IN quality, and besides giving
the road good steady revenue from it's
own country, developing other mines and
giving work the year around to a large
number of miners, it would be great
saving and happy solution of the North
Dakota settlers fuel problem The de-
creased revenues from freight. on the ex-
pensiye and high priced coal that comes
from Du1lth would be inconsiderable it
is believed and not OF long duration. The
present general dissatisfaction and com
plants over the high price of fuel would
then be done away with.

| In the Barnes county school cases, the
question of power of school districts to
issue warrants was argued last night by
w. c. White of Duluth, and to some ex-
tent by Mr.. Remington of Valley City
The decision was expected today

decisions in the future on all matters of
litigation.
One of the most important of the old
cases on the calendar was decided Satur-
day by Judge Rose. It was one OF the suits
brought by the;Capital bank of St. Paul,
against school district in Barnes coun-
ty to recover the value Of county orders
issued for material to erect school houses
in that county. Judge Rose held that
the school had no authority to issue
warrants and consequently the bank had
judgment rendered against them. This
decision follows q previous decision of
the territorial supreme court. 1t is
understood that the attorneys. White Il

District Attorney Frye is working in
dustriously and faithfully with his legal

of the general good order of the county
it can be said that no business Of very
great importance exists for the consider

The case of Deere d Co. VS.. J. II.

VCTORIA'S FOOfMAN.
A Good Story Of Lord Melbourne On
 Primo Minister of England.

A Good Story Of Lord Melbourne. Once
 Prime Minister of England.
 In the days when Prince Albert had come to woo the Queen of England the crowd of people who wished to catch a glimpse of royalty as it promenaded upon the terrace at Windsor Castle was greatly increased by reason of the general interest in the young couple. One day Yorkshireman, who had determined to get good look ut the Queen, appeared at the gates by which the spectators were usually admitted, and thus accosted man, Q footman evidently, who was at that moment crossing the court yard:
 "Look here, John, Robert, whatever they call you, coon from the country"
 |" So hear,'' said the footman.
 "Well, I've never seen t Queen, and want to get good sight of her. Now, can't you just let me through them gates, just afore 't rest O t folksa lwant to geta good place, ye see."
 "Well, sir, ," said the man. "I don't know whether dare. might lose my place, you sec"
 "Nay, mun thoull never lose thy place for such a thing as that. Thou can say to t Queen that shc hasn't got Q more loyaller subject than John Stoke, not in all York shire. nobbut want to go in just afore t rest on 'em."
 VI w ell, COElo ulOHb, tuci, Salu tue Inun He opened the gate and the eager York shireman rushed through. As he did so an idea seemed to strike him, and he stopped to tender the footman a half crown.
 "No, thank you, sr," said the man, "we are forbidden to take fees"
 "Take it, nun, take it. Nobody Il know"
 "No, thank you, sir" The YoPkshireman secured 0 foremost place, and in due time appeared the Queen and Prince. More than that, conversing familiarity with her Majesty was the foot man.
 ''Just look there!" cried the country vis- itor to a bystander. "He's a laughing and talking to t Queen like any thingr'
 "WhoF
 "Why t chap that opened me the gate E footman-him with the blue coat and red collar"
 Whom the listeners laughter would allow him to speak, he explained: "Blue coat and red collar! Why that's the Windsor uniform, and your footman is Lord Melbourne, the Prime Minister!'

CHARGES OF BRIBERY.

Members of the House Say They
 Were Offered $50 for Votes.
 There is rumor about the capitol that an investigation will be made of the manner in which the bill dividing the town of Derby was carried through the house. The New Haven Register says of the matter:
 More than half dozen members as sert that they were approached by men who offered them $50 or $75 each to vote for the division of the town. There is no doubt that there has been a strong lobby behind the division movement, and money was spent liberally ill dining the members, but it was not until yester- day that even a hint was thrown out that money was being used for purposes of corruption.
 The man who assert that they were of fered money for their votes stand ready to prove their assertions should the house order an investigation. The anti divisionists are wrought up to a high pitch by the ugly rumors, and it would not be surprising if a resolution would be introduced next week asking for an in vestigation.
 A member whose honesty and sincerity cannot be questioned said:
 II do not wish to gain any notoriety in this matter and do not want my name connected with it unless it should become absolutely necessary. But 1 can swear that 1 was offered $50 for my vote by a prominent man in the town of Derby if would vote for division. I know two other members who were offered the same amount and who, like myself, re- jected the otfer.'
 Do you believe that money was ac. cepted by any of the members?" As to that 1 cannot say. but the fact that money was offered makes the mat ter look little suspicious, and hope an investigation will soon be made"
