like unto the signal officer in the weather

there is a change in the wind which is

1t is with much pleasure, however,
and a deal of satisfaction that we learn
from Mr. James Cubert Campbell, who
states that he ''is in position to know"
that Mr. William R Merriam, who is
the present Director of the Census, and
who is also a candidate to succeed him
self, has nothing in his past career to
sustain the charge that he would i'll
any way discriminate against a man

as the Director of the Census he has
shown every evidence of his desire TO

been perpetuated upon many if not all
of the cOlored clerks in that office; it is
but Just to Mr.. Merriam and all con-

overlook such fAgrant misconduct on

delegated official power such as division

Mr. Campbell states that in the allot-

was not unmindful of the requests and

parted at times from his strict observ-
ance of the plan of apportionment in
