Nowhere Arr sLife and Property So
Safe ns In Labrador.
A traveller who recently visited the
coast "f Labrador says that nowhere
on earth are life aud property held SO
sacred rs In that little known and bar
ren land. A thousand miles OF lonely
seaboard, along which is scattered n
population of some 10000 people, about
onethird Of whom are white, would
seem to give every opportunity for
crime. yet there Is no police officer OF
any kind, no court and no Jail. Nor
arc they needed. The only criminal
charge within fifty years was one
against an Eskimo, who shot Il rival in
love.
In addition to the resident popula-
ton the coast is visited every summer
by about 10000 Newfoundland fisher
men, and, while Newfoundland itself Is
not by any means free from criminals,
none appear to come among the fishers
or else the example OF the natives OF
Labrador cnuses them to refrain from
any wrongdoing while there. Years
ago n circuit court visited the coast
every summer, but rs it found nothln;
to. do 1t was abolished. Now should
any serious charge be made against n
man magistrate would be sent from
Newfoundland to investigate lt.-uur.

Understood Attorney General Agrees
With The Committee as
a. 10 Incorporation.
OPINION o.. IS NOT NOT HlAlIlgE. PUBLIC
But 1t is Said on Trustworthy lnfor,
nation That Mr.. Anderson Thinks
the Limits Can Be Extended and
That the Present Town Governments.
Gan Be Continued.

according to the opinion of Attor-
ney General William A. Anderson the
town of Hampton can extend her
limits so as to take in the east and
west ends without becoming a city of
second class.
sometime ago when the annexation
committee recommended that the
limits be extended, provided the pres.
emit town government could be con
tinued for four years. 1t is proposed
to simply extend the limits, but not
to take a census SO that it will be
more than four years before another
official census can be taken BY do.
ing this the town will have nothing
extra to pay and when the change
occurs the cost will be borne by all
the people and the increase In taxa
tionsi if any would be exceedingly
slight.
General Anderson Gives Opinion.
The question was raised rs to
whether it would be legal for the
town to extend the limits and remain
a town. In order to fully understand
the law and to secure an opinion,
Town Attorney William C. L. Talia-
ferro indited a letter to General An.
derson asking him for his opinion.
1t was learned yesterday from an
authoritive source that General Ain.
derson agrees with the annexat ioh
committee that the limits may be ex-
tended without changing the system
OF government until at least an Off
cial census Is taken
The town council will meet on
Thursday night. when Mr.. Taliafer-
10 will make public the contents of
General Anderson's answer to his in.
quiry. 1t ds also thought that the
council will then adopt a resolution
requesting Governor Swanson to
designate judge to come here and
hear the annexation case.
Public Building Comes Next.
Hampton would have gotten the
appropriation for the public building

gentleman who is interested in seeing

for the official census report. In
that report Hampton is only given
credit for 2,740 inhabitants, when as
a matter of fact, there are at lea st
5000 people within a mile of the
postoffice. There Is no way to deny
the census report for the limits Of
the nresent town are so narrow TINT
the population cannot be increased.
The people away from here, how
ever, do not know that the. real in

only about onefourth of what is real
