In connection with the item pub
iished in The ARGUS concerning an
increase of wages for engineers and
firemen on the St. Paul road, General
superintendent Underwood makes
the statement that the rise in wages
affects fewer than 800 men, instead
of from 3 900 to 1000, as claimed,
and that the action was taken simply
to bring the scale for work on engines
of special class up to that of the

of wages remains at the same high

May Abolish 2 900 Mile Ticket.
At the last meeting of the Western
Passenger association a proposition
was introduced regarding the sale
of interchangeable mileage tickets,
which, if adopted. will cause storm
of Indignation among merchants and
jobbers, who cannot afford to buy
mileage at wholesale. At present the
western roads sell 2.000-mile ticket.
1t is proposed to sell only 4, 0OO-miie
tickets, but allow holders to use them
on lines as far west as the Rocky
mountains. The Central passenger
association, which covers more terri
tory than the Western. issues 1000
mile interchangeable tickets, so as to
enable small merchants and jobbers
to compete with more powerful con-
Germs.

night at the Burtis, in Davenport.
Way Down East" is truly remark
able. Produced in New York last
season by William A. Brady without
any great advanced heralding, it
leaped into popularity instantaneous
ly, and for seven months occupied
the stage of the Manhattan theatre,
transferred to the Acad-
envy of Music. 1t is a play of great
heart interest with homely types of
rural New England as its characters,
presenting everyday happenings. of
that vicinity that one would be likely
to encounter. Lottie' Blair Parker is
the author of it; but that skillful actor
and playwright, Joseph r. Girls
mer, elaborated and produced it. 1t
will be presented at Harper's theatre

Horrible Example of Total Depravity,
lint UnexceIIed for Mission
nry Journeys.

'I have said that the bronco was
the best possible horse for missionary
journeys, and so he is." writes Rev. Cy-
rus Townsend Brady of "A Missionary
in the Great West" in Ladies Home
Journal. He is an ugly, ill-tempered,
vicious, grained, undersized, half
starved, hea-bitten, abandoned little
beast, and he gives the missionary
abundant opportunity to practice the
sublime virtue of self-restraint. as
horrible example of total depravity he
beats anything that know of. He is
apt to do anything except good
thing -at any moment. When he APP
pears most serenely unconscious. look
out for him, for that is the hour in
which he meditates some diabolical ac-
ton. He bucks when he is ridden and
balks when he is driven, but once get
him going and he shows his mettle.
He can go, and go like the wind, and
60 all day, and live on one blade OF
grass and one drop of dew, and keep
awake all highland keep you awake,
too-and go again all day, and keep
it up until he tires out everything and
everybody in competition with him;
for when you get him started you can
depend upon him. He never gets sick
nor breaks down, and do not believe
he ever dies, but it is awfully hard get
ting him started sometimes"

in the United States by immigra-
ton alone, fo7 when the foreign
born are left out Of account, there
are still above 10000 more males
than females.
Few would dispute the necessity
for asking questions regarding
race. All arguments regarding the
future of any particular race in this
country like the Indian, the negro,
or the Chinaman, must hinge upon
the returns in the census. with
the Indians, moreover. it is Of the
highest importance TO learn what
success the policy Of the govern
ment has met with in establishing
them apart from their tribes and
reservations, and whether such In
dians are increasing or decreasing.
Some mothers may shrink from
stating the number OF children
they have had and the number
who are living. But from the an
swers to these questions, the coun-
trv will learn whether the native
American population is holding its
own, or whether, as some have
claimed, tits being gradually sup
planted and displaced by the chill
drenof recent immigrants.
In the light Of such explana-
tions, and only few of the most
important questions have been
touched upon, it may perhaps be
clear to the. public that no question
has been ordered by congress. or
has been asked by the census office
which, if properly and correctly
answered, will not lead to suggest
i've differences regarding the Amer
lean people and their work.

CENSUS QUERIES.
Enumerators to Begin Work
June First.

The blank schedules to be used
in the next census are now being
distributed by the census office to
the enumeralors, who will start to
work on June 1. The schedules
contain questions which some per-
sons may think prying, purpose
less, or excessive in number. But
their number and character have
been determined by congress, not
by the census Office, and all OF
them have been asked in previous
censuses. The only important
change since 1890 is that some
questions have been abandoned.
People are often offended at the
question, Chow old are your" and
are apt to wonder what use the
government can make of their re-
plies. Taken as a whole the re-
plies are as important as any class
of information the census office
collects. Age returns penetrate
and elucidate every other branch
of statistical knowledge. They
show where child labor is preva-
lent. and where the proportion OF
persons able to support themselves
is large or small. They reveal the
great number of colored children
and the short life of the negroes
under present conditions. They
make it possible to ascertain
whether the average length of life
is increaslng or decreasing, how
many men the nation contains who
are capable Of voting OF Of bearing
arms, ana whether the relative
number Of children Isl increasing
or decreasing.
In Mohammedan or semi-civl-
lized countries like India house
holders are often unwilling to an
swer the question regarding the
sex of persons in the house, butin
civilized countries where the sexes
are regarded as on an equality,
such unwillingness does not ap-
pear. The answers to the ques-
tions show that in nearly all cities
the females outnum5er the males
and that the same is true OF most
of the states along the Atlantic
coast. The belief is widespread
that taking the world in general
there are more females alive at
any given time than males, and
that if it were not for immigration
there would be more females IN
the United States than males. But
census statistics show that we can
not explain the great excess Of
males Cover one and a half million
