If it is true as intimated from Washington
that some person or persons in the Census
Bureau have been furnishing to the Democratic
campaign managers statistics favorable 10 the
Democratic cause. and at the same time garhng
the figures in order to make good showing
for the opposition. the matter is plainly one de-
handing the careful attention of the head OF
the Interior Department. There appears to be
some ground for the suspicion that this has
taken place. The Improperly of such conduct
by any one in the Census Office is obvious. The
lOne.delayed Democratic Handbook may fur
lush s2me evidence, when it appears but it is
not necessary to wait for that before making an
investigation.

California Grizzlies.

There were plenty of grizzlies around
the mountains fifteen years ago, says a
California correspondent of the New
York Tribune, and / hear of them, even
now. Every one in the mountains has
an immense respect for the grizzly. An
old frontiersman tells me that n few
years ago he was hunting stray cattle,
and he came on new settlers cabin be-
side an oak IN mountain valley. He
stayed with the settler over night, sleep
ing in blanket before the fire. During
the night they heard great noise out
side. The settler looked hastily out and
reported that n large bear was at the
meat-safe, which hung under the oak
tree, The frontiersman was asked
to shoot it, but said he would
not fisk it, with only revolver and
a shotgun. The vile of the settler re-
marked that they were both towards,
and she would drive it off with broom.
They locked the door, prevented her
from going out, and shortly after heard
the meat-safe fall and roll into the
gulch. In the morning they found that
an old horse had become cntangled in
the ropes of the meat-saic, and finally
tore it down in his struggles and
dragged it down the ravine. The old
frotiersman aGd the new settler were
obliged in self defence to retire to
the headwaters of the San Antonio
within week and stay there until they
had killed n grizzly apiece.

Tie French spoliation CIaims.

The House committee on claims has de-
cided to report to the House bill providing
for the payment of the celebrated French
spoliaton claims. 1t is estimated Il at it
will require an appropriation of between
$S,000,0 00 and $1,000 900. The Congression-
al history of these claims dates back to 1902,
when they were first reported to the House
by Mr.. Giles, in behalf of a select committee
appointed for their investigation. They
were again reported in 1907. Both
reports contained favorable statement
of the facts without recommendation.
Later favorable reports were made on
the claims, and several times a bill for the
relief of the claimants passed 10th houses,
but was vetoed by the President. The claims
crew out of the destruction of property by
French vessels, the United States having
failed to perform the obligations assumed in
the treaty with France in l77S. to forever
guarantee to France her posse ssions in
America t. en- held, as well as those to be
aterward acquired by treaty of peace. At
that time the whoe of monarchial Eur pc
was in arms against France, and that
country, indignant at what she re-
garded as a breach of faith and
gross ingratitude on the part of the United
Stass, re;aliated by the destruction of
her property on the sea. The justice of
these CLAIMS was urged by the United States
and admitted by France but on the pres
entation by France of counter claims of
national wrongs, each count Y relieved the
other of responsibility. Our government,

ceived the benefits of this settlement, bnt

The suicide of Miss Jessie Hodge, in An
dover, Mass, has created quite sensation
where she has resided almost all her life.
The medical examiner states that the girl
undoubtedly worried over some business
matters, and took the desperate step in a
fit of dependency. She attempted suicide a
month ago by taking laudanum, but her
attempt was unsuccessful. The note left by
the suicide S as follows:

How OIL Is Transported.

Very few peoplo understand The ex-
tent and value Of the great on p.po
lines that bring the product of the
petroleum wells to the great refining and
transporting centers. Talking the other
day Vita 4,lwull Cowell of Cleveland,
who is largely interested in the lines, he
said;
"You have probably no idea OF the
extent of the Standard Oil Company's
pipe line system, II is plodigious, One
line goes as direct as the way will allow
from Olean, Cattaraugus county, N, Y,
to New York city, distance of about
three hundred miles, The line stops at
Saddle River, N. j., within easy reach
of tho metropolis. The Pennsylvania
line stretches from Colgrove, Mexican
county, TO Philadelphia, nearly two
hundred and eighty miles. The
Baltimore line begins at Midway Station,
on the Pennsylvania line, and runs to
the city of Baltimore distance of
seventy miles; that into the great re-
iinerics at Cleveland begins at HillaId's.
Pa, aud is 100 miles in length; that to
Pittsburg is six miles in length, and
finds its beginning in Carbon Centre.
Butler county, Pa, while that at Buffs-
10 begins at -Four Mile, Cattaaugus
county, N. y, and is seventy miles ia
length. That is IL big system in itself.
hut this isn't all there is of it. A main
line has also been built from Kane, Nc
Kean County to Bear Creek, distance
of so miles, which serves as feeder, as
oil can be pumped through in both ways,
1t would be impossible to describe the
mass of smaller lines that cross the ter
Mory drained in every direction, nor
would description made today be of
exact value tomorrow, as new wells are
constantly opened and old ones closed.
You can get some idea of the immensely
of this business from the fact that
