Advertising tor State.
Washington, March Ex-senator
Piles recently wrote a letter to the di-
rector of the census protesting against
his latest estimate of the population of
Washington. The director gave the
population rs $50. 900 in 1905. which
was an increase of only about $4,000
over the enumeration of 1900.
Mr.. Piles declared that the city of
Seattle had increased in population
fully so, 200 and that the rest of the
state had, of course, grown enormous
ly, making a total population of not
less than one million.
The senator has received letter
from Director North in which the di-
rector does not insist too strongly on
the truth of his estimate, but suggests
that the state take census Of its own.
He intimates that this would do a
great deal to advertise the state.

GERMAN OPINION OF AMERICAN
lNTELLECTUALlSM.

The American, says DR.. Ludwig
Fulda, the distinguished German dra-
matist and poet, has an irresistible
desire to look at himself in the Eu-
ropean mirror" yet he resents seeing
a caricature cast back, and likes to
find reflected there the traits that
seem to him most valuable in his char
acter. This writer proceeds accord
ingly to give in the Neue Freie Presse
of Vienna his impressions of Ameri-
ca in the only department of national
activity which he had time for investi-
eating during his recent visit here.
While Germans and other Europeans
have sometimes been disposed to be-
little American scholarship and intel
lectual thorughness, DR.. Fulda express
ses an exalted opinion of our national
intelligence, and high appreciation
of American culture and knowledge"

sions. AS he says:
at has brought me directly in con-
tact with the circles of culture and
knowledge; it allowed me to make
the acquaintance of many admirable
men and women who belong to the
best of their people, and whose inner
aspirations include them in the first
rank. Through such privileges i
could get a deeper insight into the
workshops where the future of the
country is being worked out than is
permitted to the tourist or the traveller
whom merely material aims bring
over the ocean. And if in so doing
/ received ever new, elevating proofs
of the fact that enthusiasm for all
the higher values of life and the en-
thusiastic zeal that Is devoted to then
appropriation and diffusion can no
where in the world be surpassed, still
/ am quite conscious that l should not
at once judge the valleys from the
peaks. But it still will seem to me
that such a spirit as here inspires the
leaders and teachers of the nation can
not be without influence upon the
masses, too; at all events, not remain
without influence"
He thinks that America and Ger
many are the two people upon whom
the future of the world must depend,
and he feels that the eminent men
whom he met, teachers, scientists,
and publicists, are fully conscious OF
the close ties which bind together the
American and the Teutonic races. To
