Speaking OF his recent trip to Japan and
China, Mr.. Hartman said:
Japan is getting railroads and going
ahead to put them In shape 10 bring about
further development. The money that has
been collected from the people is being used
for their benefit.
Tn Japanese are ambitious and besides
their railroad building they are going to
develop transportation by water, and we
will have to Cooperate with them or COM
pete with them, l think we had better CO.
operate. They are going to get their share
of the transpacific business and get in their
own bottoms.
The oriental countries can be divided into
two classes, Japan being at present a class
by itself on the principle OF the country
which helps its producers. The other ella ISIS
takes away from and hinders It's producers,
and all the other countries are still in this
class. The little | saw In China, however,
convinced me that that country is going to
open itself up as Japan has already done.
China Is already developing the railroad
lines Il has and will have more. The Chi
nese are now using their railroads instead
of tearing them down. Corea will have
TO be reoTEanized and this will be done
by the japanese. This means a future
for that country. too.

TAKING THE CENSUS.
Of Benton What the Enumeration
Involves Much Work for the
Assessor.

Is
Along with the assessment, As
SCISSOR Davis is taking the census
of the county. The state law re-
quires assessors to take the census
every 10 years. Thework involves
more labor than does the making of
the assessment. The assessor is
required to get the name, resid-
enoe, color, age, of each person and
to list those subject to military
duty, which includes all able bodied
males between IS and As. Every
inhabitant is labeled as to whether
married or unmarried, and whether
or not a legal voter. For all males
there must be a statement of those
under 10 years, Of those between
10 and Fl, and all over 2I. Res
pecting females there is a similar
listing, save that it involves those
under 10, those between 10 and IS.
and all over I8. There must be
given the occupation, trade or
profession of each person 10 years
of age and over, and the place of
birth of each citizen must appear.
The biggest feature of the census,
however, is the enumeration Of the
products. This involves a state
ment of firms engaged in any in
dustry, the number OF acres of land
| under cultivation, number of bush
els of wheat grown the preceding
| year, number of bushels OF oats,
barley, corn, potatoes, apples, tons
of hay, pounds Of tobacco. wool,
cheese and butter.
The livestock enumeration in
wolves the number of horses, num-
Der of mules, cattle, sheep, hogs.
The mineral census includes the
number of ounces Of gold dust.SA
miscellaneous enumeration involves
the yield of fish and oysters, bar
rels of salmon, and feet of lumber
! cut.
In taking the census, a house to
house canvass has to be made. In
no other way can true and correct
enumeration be had. Assessor
Davis is follow ing this plan, and is
operating in town. The enumera,
ton of the southern part Of town
i as far north as Jefferson street has
been practically completed. Il
i taking the census IN Lane county
the assessor was authorized by The
county court to put 16 deputies il
the field, which has been done.
