about $4,000. The deposits amount
to $1O4, 900, with loans and discounts of

Building Inspector Chatfield has
 been used pretty we'll by the press and public in Waterbury, notwith- standing all this talk about politics
 There has been no great amount of fault found with his work by people generally. although he may have been pestered by some over officious persons. Every public official meets more or less of this if he attempts to do his duty. It was only after one death had occurred from i'm iuries received in the collapse of a
 defective floor and a building in course of construction had tumbled in that people began to look around and note if the inspector was really attending to his business. conse- quently a committee was appointed to investigate the work of the build ing inspector. That this committee happens to be composed of two dem ocrats and one republican is the fault of the voters of Waterbury. and not through any underhanded work of the present administration. The report or this committee given in full in our issue yesterday shows that there have been fragrant viola tions of the city ordinances allowed by a man who is well paid tO see that there are no violations. Mir Chatfield in his own behalf ignores the violations pointed out. but cries politics. politics. Such an excuse will not hold before a court of jus tice. If the charges made are true. and it looks so, the building inspec- tor must answer to the proper tri- bunaL He has been given a fair show in the investigation just made. and other men have lost their places for a less serious Offense.

SMALLER FAMILIES NOW.
The Style in United States. Says Di-
 rector of the Census,

Washington, Dec. 2S.-S. N. D.. North, director of the census, esti- mates that the count of noses in the United States two years from next June will show population of about 91 ,000,000 as against 76,0O0,OOO in round numbers in 1900. Recently there has been a good deal of talk about the cOuntry's population reach ing 100,000,000 by the timethe next census is taken, but MT North does not indorse this estimate. His investt- gations the last six or seven years in connection with the work of estimat- ing population in cities has convinced him that the increase for the ten-year period will not exceed 20 per cent. He is certain that the country is rum ming to smaller families.
 It will be a surprise to him if the next count does not show that the per cent of natural increase is falling off year by year. The prospect is that the center of population in 1910 will still be in Indiana. A. l.. Lawshe third assistant pOstmaster-general. in an address before the Indiana Society of Washington the other night, pre- dicted that the census of 1910 would move the center of population 10 In- dianapolis and make 1t the hub ot the universe" The census office ey- perts are not prepared to substantia'e Mir Lawshe's prophecy. It Is alto gether likely, they say. that the rapid increase in population in the south west. notably in.OklahOma and Texas will pull the center of population d little to the south of the present cen- ter as we'll as to the westward from forty to fifty miles. One thing is cer- tain. Indiana can hardly fail to re- main in the center.

OF ASSOCIATED PRESS.
SATURDAY, DEC 2s, 1907.

New York consumes each year over a million and quarter cords of wood in the manufacture of pulp, or more than twice as much as Maine, which ranks next. Wiscon- sin, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Michigan follow in the order given. Sixty per cent of the wood used in New York was imported from elsewhere, and even so the supply appears to be waning, since the total consumption for the state shows a small decrease since 1905, whereas the other states named have all in creased their consumption. Other states important in the production Of pulp are: Massachusetts, Minneso- ta, Ohio, Oregon. Vermont, Virginia and West Virginia. The average cost of pulp delivered at the mill was $721. The total value of the wood consumed in 1906 was $26,- 100000. The chief item determin- ing the price of paper is the cost of pulp. An example of the increased price of paper is found in the case of a publisher of daily in the mid Gle west, who recently paid $1,209 for a carload of paper The same quantity and grade of paper cost year ago but $500.

One Newark man has scheme of his own for keeping the city streets clean as we'll as for carrying out of other municipal improvements. A writer in the Circle says that there is a school city at the Thirteenth avenue school in Newark, N. J., where a sense of civic responsibility has extended not only to the care of the school building and immedi- ate surroundings, but to the entire stance, a young truant officer and a street inspector for each street in the district who report any violation of school or city ordinances occur ring on their streets. Suppose, for example, an ignorant immigrant family dump their ashes on the side walk instead of into a barrel. The child who is the school city inspector for that street reports the matter to his chief. the commissioner of public works, the commissioner to the mayor, and the mayor to the princi- pal. The principal then calls to his office tfe child of the offending par ents, explains the ash ordinance, and charges the child to request the parents in future to observe the or dinance If the same complaint is again entered against the same fam fly. the principal adds to his request a threat to notify the city police if they refuse to comply. Such threat has in every case been effective with out the actual intervention of the police.

with guides, says a writer in the En- gineering Magazine. These visitors may be officials of other great plants engineers, managers or superin- tendents-or they may be proprietors or employees of very modest shops, working perhaps on specialties. But whoever they are, the questions which they put to the guides with the greatest frequency and interest relate to the management. What inn presses a man first, and with appar- ently the greatest force, is the con- trol of so large a force of workers, and the movement of great Quanti- ties of material and parts in such rhythmical order and succession as to keep every man at work and working smoothly. "I would far rather," said one such man to me
 as we were watching the dense crowd of workers pouring into the streets uG lhC HUH llouI, "oulu lul lulliCI know how these men are handled without confusion, how work is fur nished for each one of them without waste of time, and how the stuff is pushed through the various shops, than listen to the most exhaustive description of the plant and the pro- duct" One of the guides, a young and exceedingly bright engineer, has a set formula for reply to questions on this subject. "The manager" he will say, ''is at the top. He takes all the kicks and all the credit. The engineering department designs all the work-tells the men what to make; the superintendent of praduc- tion tells them how much, or how many to make; and the mechanical superintendent tells them how to make it, and sees that they do it."

While the causes of the panic are
 now generally understood, it may be well in taking account of the past twelve months to briefly cite the
 chief reasons, says Banker Clews.
 Among these causes were general overriding, over-extension of credit, over-speculation, over-issue of secur- ities, great industrial expansion, eX- cessive underwriting schemes, ex- cessive mining and real estate specu- lation, earthquakes at home and abroad, Japanese and South African wars, general public extravaganza, exhaustion of floating capital, dis trust induced by corporate misman- agement, and finally the hostile atti- tude of political leaders and legisla- tive bodies at home, stimulating er- rOneous prejudice against wealth. These conditions, however, are now a matter of history and of little in terest except for the lessons they convey. It is of first importance to recognize that a complete change of base has taken place. and that the business world. whether it likes it or not, must now be actively concerned in adjusting itself to new conditions. We have been suddenly precipitated from high level to a lower, and the sooner this vital change is admitted and conformed to. the prompter and sounder will be the resumption of business activity. Fortunately the panic fell with greatest severity upon those best able to bear it, wealthy institutions and the rich men being the chief sufferers. Upon the in- dustrial, mercantile and laboring classes the shock has been much less severe, a distinction that it is i'm portant to bear in mind. It would be folly, however, to indulge in de- lusions as to the final effects of the panic. In greater or less degree the consequences will be distributed over all parts of the country, and it is not unreasonable to be prepared for at least a year of comparative de- pression. certainly in the east where commerce and industry are most con- centrated.
