The MillerS won another game from
Lincoln yesterday afternoon by super
ior all around playing and more effective
work with the bat. The weather was
perfect for ball playing and just cool
enough fol- the spectators to enjoy it.
Mitchell was in the box for the locals,
and Clare for Lincoln. Mitchell has
tevidently outgrown the ''hoodoo" which
pursued him everywhere the old DeS
Moines team went, for they were I'M
able to hit him with any effect yester-
day. 1t may be that the change of name
destroyed the ''hoodoo." Phenomenal
Young Clare, on the other hand, was
handled rather roughly, especially in
Day and Carroll each made singles and
Ryh double, one right after the other.
Aided by sequence of errors. stolen
base and sacrifice hit, all five scored.
After that inning Clare settled down.
ana the rest of the twelve hits made Off
him during the game were scattered
about. The sixth and last run scored
by Minneapolis was made in the seventh
inning by Minnehan, who got first on a
clean single to center, stole second, aud
was helped in by Days liner over see
Ond bag.
Flanagan gave Lincolnthe only run of
the game in the fourth inning, when
with no one on the bases he hit slow
drop bail fairly in the nose and sent it
spinning over the left field fence for
homer. There were no particular feat
ures in the game with mentioning
except Flanagan's hit over the fence
and double play by Miller, Day and
Mnnehan. In the second inning Ryn
went out to right field and Minnehan
covered first base during the remaining
seven innings. Ryn has sore hand,
and is DESTROYS of saving it as much as
possible. Minnehan played first in an
admirable manner, accepting every
chance offered. Following is the score:

TARIFF Reform HEIDED FOR
FREE TRADE.

The demand for free foreign trade-the
plea that commerce must be relieved
from tax, although the burden upon
other industries may be proportionately
augmented, Is selfish, unjust and indefen-
sible upon any grounds OF equity and
fair dealing.
Are the Industrious attorneys for free
trade ever heard demanding that any
other line OF business shall be equally
Tree with the foreigners traffic? They see
the farmer taxed on his land. his imple-
ments, his live stock, and even such Of
his crops as may be unsold when the as-
SCISSOR comes round. They see the man
,liacturer taxed on his buildings, his
machinery, his materials, and IN some
instances his stock OF finished goods.
But no breath is wasted in shouting for
free farms and irecfactories, free animals
and free goods. Why, then, must all
this be reversed when the articles are
made by foreigners whose lands, machi-
merry and other tangible effects are be-
yond reach 81 our laws2
Why should not the CANADIAN farmer
pay for the privilege OF selling his crops
in our markets? Whatever he thus pays
goes for the support Of this government
and the enforcement OF laws TO which he
is certain 60 appeal for redress il money
is not Forthcoming according To agree
ment The trader in foreign-made goods
is quite ns vociierous in demanding his
rights under our laws as is the farmer or
manufacturer. Why, then, exempt from
taxation the business OF trading in foI-
cign goods rather than the business OF
manufacturing or farming?
Free trade means taxing everything IN
this country that can se taxed and
exempting from taxation everything
brought here from acknowledgements in
geniously it, advocates may conceal
their real aim under glittering forms q
speech. Asonestep toward their desired
goal the free trade attorneys seek e
make it cheaper than now for foreigner
TO trade in our markets, and thus render
it more difficult for our citizens TO com
pete while compelled opay higher wages
This the boldest among them frankly
avow, while their less candid allies ar
permitted 20 pose behind the veil o
tariff reform SO long AZ they stan'
ready, at the word Of command, to vot
for men and measures tabled with tn
Golden club trade mark.

The Pittsburg Post, speaking of
the outrageous revolutionary Fed
ersl elections bill, says: 1t is the
most UNANIMOUSLY unfair, as it is one
of the most dangerous bills that
ever passed Congress. 1t is de-
signed to arouse sectional hatreds,
and, the chances are, will result in
bloody race conflicts at the South.
It revlves for the whole country
the monstrous Returning Board
practices and villainies by which
the Presidency was stolen in 1876.
There is in the bill the dread
possibilities of Civil War, for it is
not in American nature to submit
to despotism and wrong, with the
right of appeal to the ballot box
subverted.

MEXICO is about the only town
in tho country that is not kicking
about the way her census was
taken. While the actual figures
cannot yet be made public it is
safe to say, we think, that our
population will number a trife
over 5000. Nobody has any fault
to find with the enumeration. The
only thing to be regretted is, that
Highland Addition was not annex
ed before the count was finished.
Had this been done the enumera-
ton would have shown at least 500
more people. This was an eyre
gious oversight.

BY MACHINE.
How the Census Returns are
Footed Up at the Office. -


~ sAo Il
From the Washington Star.
The third floor of the Census
on Ninth street, has the
of a factory or machine
shop. 1t is a very tidy and airy
machine shop, however, where
nice-looking girls in cool white
dresses are at work at the long
rows OF counting machines. Atthe
first glance the machines remind
one OF upright pianos. They have
handsome oak cases and each one
occupies about the same space that
u piano does. They are, however,
emlnently practical machines, and
with their aid some fifteen young
ladies can count accurately a half
million of names a day. 1t is ex-
pected that when the work OF
counting the census returns really
begins there will be seventy or
eighty of those machines at work.
The returns from the census
districts throughout the country
are coming in slowly. There are
more than $4,000 of these districts,
and so far only about 2, 500 districts
have sent in the returns. As fast
as the returns come in they are
counted, although not as rapid as
they will De, as it is necessary to
train the young ladies in the use OF
the machines. In making this
count, which is known as the
CROUCH count" the returns for
each district are counted twice.
After being counted on one machine
they are passed over to another,
and when the latter count is com.
pleted the two are compared, and
if there are discrepancies, necessary
| corrections are made. Following
this method, if the total population
Of the country is 60 million, there
will be counted in census Office an
equivalent of 120 million names.
The machines, which are the
| invention of Mr.. HOllerith. anC
supplement his tabular machines,
are very simple. A keyboard, re-
sembling that of a typewriter, is al
the right of the operator. Each
key has a number, from one te
twenty. The operator has a pile
| of census schedules at her left side.
and as she turns the schedules
over, she notes the figures which
indicate the number of members il
each family enumerated in thai
schedule. If there n five mem
bers In a family she strikes the key
marked FIVE. When a key i!
struck an electric connection il
established with the hands on
dial in the frame work in front O
the operator. The dial is marked
No. 5, which mean it records thu
number of families consisting o
five persons. Each time the No
5 key is struck No. 5 dial record'
one. When the count is complet
ed the recorded number on each
dial is multiplied by the number o
the dial, the results added up ano
the total number of individuals il
that district is ascertained. If tn
same result is obtained by a differ
ent operator, then it is concluded
that the count is correct. 1t is ex'
pected that by the use of thes'
machines the results Of the censul
will be known much sooner thai
by any other known method.
