Notes OF the Diamond.
While it is very often pleading the
baby act to criticise the umpire when
ones team loses, it is no eXaggeration
to say that Umpire Mauck's decisions
in several instances, both on balls and
strikes and on bases, were off color,
so far as Rock Island was concerned.
Another instance of hard luck was
that which deprived the locals of
chance to retire the side, subsequent
ly giving the visitors two runs, when
Wilkinson's grounder hit the umpire
in the eighth.
Now Davenport is complaining of
Umpire Mesmer. Send him to Rock
Island, President Sexton, if you wish
to make a change. He is the only
competent umpire who has been here
this season.
The Peoria general Office ball team
and the aggregation from Henry
Darts Sens have arranged for a bat
tie royal somewhere in the woods
south of town next Saturday after
noon. The former are developing a

The census bureau has at last settled
all doubts on the question of the center
of population by announcing that it
has moved fourteen miles westward

ten years. The phenomenal growth of
eastern cities for the period had led to
the belief that this population point
would be shown to have moved east.

of the development of the east, is a
matter of congratulation for the west.
The center of population has been
steadily moving westward for ITO years
The first census, in 1890, located il
twenty-three miles east of Baltimore.
For seventy years it moved westward
with slightly southerly trend from
forty to eighty miles every decade. BY
1860 it had reached southern Ohio
During the next ten years it turned
sharply northward and in 1870 it wa,
forty-eight miles east by north of Gin

COST OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

The Kansas City Star observes That
!"the expenses of the government have
been pling up within the last few
years at such rate that many persons
are inclined TO take a discouraging
view of its extravaganza. 1t is true
that one billion dollar congress has
succeeded another and that there is
constant danger from needless appro-
priations. But even with the heavy
expenses of the war of the last three
wears, the finances of the United States
are i'm such condition that they are the
envy of every power in Europe"
Mr.. Carroll ID. Wright, United States
commissioner of labor, presents some OF
the results of his study on the subject
in the current Century Magazine. AT
the opening of the last century the
governments expenses were only Sl.4O
for every person. The war of 1872 did
not quite triple them. At the begin
ming of the civil war they were only
$2.Ol, but in five years of fighting they
had risen to 1874. BY 1885 they had
fallen below S.. During the second
half of the last decade they were $6.39.
These figures 10y themselves might be
taken to indicate extravaganza. Even
without the pension payments the
government cost three times as much
per capita in 1900 as it did 100 years be-
fore.
"These items are only one side of the
account, however. During the century
the duties of the government have
multiplied out of proportion to the
population. The people pay more, but
they are richer and they get more in
return. The per capita expenses OF a
village are considerably below those of
a city, but so are its advantages. The
weather bureau, the coast and geodetic
survey, the department of agriculture,
the improvements in rivers and har-
bors, all cost money which the citizens
of the republic in its early days did not
have to pay. Yet the funds spent Oh
these departments of government 'usu-
ally are returned to the public i'm full
measure in practical benefits.
"The people can afford to pay for
such advantages and for the Indirect
benefits of an adequate army and navy
because they are far richer than ever
before. Mr.. Wrighrs figures show
that during the last half of the century
the per capita wealth increased from
!$3OS to 1892. For the same period
the value of manufactures and farm,
fishery and mineral products advanced
five fold. The national debt, which
stood at $6O.46 per capita in 1870, has
been decreased to $l4.52 in thirty years.
AS a whole the showing is extremely
creditable. The government has kept
pace in expenditures with the growing
needs of the country, as the increased
wealth of the people warranted. Dur.
ing the times of peace its expenses have
not increased so rapidly as its gains in
riches. There is extravaganza, but
while the conditions call for watchful
hess they need not excite alarm"
