THE CENSUS OF MEXICO.
Enumerntors Complete Their Work
in Our Sister Republic.

MONTEREY, Mexico. Oct. 2S.-The
population of Mexico was officially enum-
Grated today. Preparations for the Fed
eral census, which was taken today, have
been in progress for some time. The work
was thoroughly done in Monterey. and the
same completeness was obtained all
through the Republic. The census will
come near being correct. The enumera-
tors visited the homes of every citizen
of Mexico several days ago and left blanks
to be filed out with the name, age ma
tionality, etc, Of the inhabitants.
These blanks were collected today, and
will be Immediately forwarded to the De-
partment OF the Interior, where the names
will be counted and tabulated The cen
sus that was taken ten years ago was far
from complete for the reason that many
ignorant natives feared that their names
were wanted by the authorities for the
purpose of putting them into the army,
and when the enumerat0r appeared they
hid away.
This fear has been largely overcome
through the wide distribution of printed
circulars among the people announcing
the object of the proposed enumeration.
explained to their parishioncrs the object
of the census 1t is believed the figures
will show n wonderful growth of popula-
ton throughout Mexico during the last
decade.

themselves opposed TO lowering Americas quad

1t is perhaps lucky for Mr.. Mckinley
that the Paris Exposition scandals have
been SO we'll suppressed until now that the
public will not know enough before the

ically by them. The accounts of expendi-
lures which are coming in from Peck the

ury officials. Many items representing I'M
necessary and unwarranted extravaganza
have been disallowed. ard it is expected
that many more will be. The crowd of
Mckinley carpetbaggers at the fair have
amply sustained the reputation of their
kind. There will be a sensation when the
full truth is known.

idea OF Uncle Sam may sound like sar-

with this statement OF Mr.. Hanna's part
