taken there is no uniformity between
different assessment districts and

board Of assessment has given all prop

securing equalization. Getting AZ the

Keep the Balance up.

1t has been truthtully said that any
disturbance of the even balance OF
health causes serious trouble.
Nobody can be too careful to keep
this balance up. When people
begin to lose appetite, or to get
tired easily, the least imprudence
brings on sickness, weakness, or
debility The system needs a
tonic, Graves it, and should not be
denied it; and the best tonic of
which we have any knowledge is
Hoods SarsaparilIa. What this
medicine has done in keeping
healthy people healthy, in keeping
up the even balance of health,
gives il the same distinction as a
preventive that it enjoys as a cure.
Its early use has illustrated the
wisdom of the old saying that
stitch in time saves nine. Take
Hoods for appetite, strength, and

Jury Uuabls TO Agree.

The United States District Court jury
in the case Of Stephen A. Abel, the st.
Mary's county census enumeration ciarg-
ed with returning fraudulent names,
were discharged at noon Saturday last,
as they could not agree upon a verdict.
They had been out over % hours Aft
er they were discharged some of the ju-
rors said they stood 2 for net guilty and
5 for guilty from the time they retired
until they were discharged.
Judge Morris had the jury brought be-
fore him when court convened at 10
o'clock in the morning and asked If a
verdict had been agreed upon. The
foreman replied that they stood the
same then as when they had retired and
it was impossible for them to agree. The
judge then said he was reluctant to keep
the jury together in such hot weather,
but the circumstances of the case were
such as should enable them to agree and
he would not discharge them. Two
hours later the jury was taken into court
again and was discharged when the
foreman reiterated that it was impOssi-
BILE for them to agree and three of the
jurors were i'll.
United States District Attorney John
G. Rose said the case will probably be
tried again, but not until fall.-SUn.

here IS the CENSUS.


Baltimore San.
The figures given below show the
results Of the new State census,
which is now practically complete,
and within ten days the official re-
port will be in the hands Of the
Governor. The population in the
city is changed from 5OS,95 z to
514, 1878; that Of the counties from
6S1, 04S to ga, 1922, and that of the
whole State, including the city,
from 1.1s0,0O5 to LIS, 300.
These figures may be relied upon
and will be verified BY the official
report when sent to Gov. Smith.
The loss Of more than 5000 in
the counties 10 greater than was an
ticipated, and means o rearrange-
ment Of the representation in the
Legislature of several counties.
Dorchester county, it is said, will
be the only one entitled to an ad.
ditional representative, the increase
over the Federal figures being about
800.
The heaviest lssses occur in st.
Mary's, Anne Arundel, Charles
and Baltimore counties. The dis
crepancy in Anne Arundel is more
than 5000. in st. Mary's about
1900, in Baltimore about 1900
and in Charles about ZOO.
The results in Kent county are
very interesting, and when the fig-
ures are finally announced, il lie
said, there may be facts brought to
light that will compel . change in
the system and method of taking
Federal censuses. Both Kent and
; FRINGE Georges counties are / 900
short Of the Federal figures. Car
oline, Qaeen Anne's, st. Mary's,
Wicomico, Dorchester, and Har.
ford each made slight gains.
The increase IN the Baltimore
city figures 10 accounted for by the
fact that at the time Of the Federal
census hundreds Of people we're
away on vacations, and other hun
dreds we're in Anne Arundel county
picking berries. The falling OF in
Charles, st. Mary's aud Aane
Arundel was anticipated by the de-
velorments in the census fraud
trials. bat the lapse in the Kent
county figures was q surprise and
may lead to further Investigations
BY the Federal authorities.

or course, the State enumeration
will not please many Of the goody-
goody who fOndly imagine that all
the virtne in the world 10 concen-
tired in themselves. They do not
believe that other people will do
right, because they have learned to
think that all men are scoundrels
by studying their own natures.
II these modern Pharisees will
proceed to prove something against
the accuracy Of the State census
they should and doubtlessly will be
listened to With attention by
thoughtful people, but no one will
notice vaporings that are but the
products Of temper and hatred. We
believe that the State has made an
honest effort to secure an accurate
enumeration, and il there has been
any fraud or deception practised,
We trust that it will be shown up.
That the Federal count was inac-
curate, that the lists were padded
with the names Of the dead and of
nOn-residents has been proven aud
10 acknowledged. The different
counties are entitled to the School
Fund due them aud to the repre-
sentation accorded them by the

curate and proper count Of their
