A Fair Census.

In Washington the census bureau is
even now making preparations for the
national census to be taken in 1910.
1t is vast work, involving infinite de.
tail, and must be carefully planned.
The millions of people who inhabit the
United States are to be enumerated,
together with the livestock, and com.
prehensive reports also are sought on
the innumerable industries of the
country, its development and re-
sources. That all of this can be done
with absolute accuracy is out of the
question, but that it can be done in a
far more thorough manner than the
census records of the past bear out in
many, many instances is certain, says
Poppyland. The faithful enumerators
are in the minority, and in self-protec-
ton the interested public should see
to it that returns as nearly correct as
1t is humanity possible to make them
should be sent to Washington for
final summing up and publication.

Six more years must pass before
the great memorial to Queen Victoria,
which is to be erected in front of
Buckingham palace, can be complet-
ed. Slow progress on the gigantic
work for the last six years has caused
much public criticism from time to
time, and the king, it is said, recently
expressed himself as disappointed that
greater progress had not been made.

before 1913, and that II years is not
much time to put on a piece of work
of such size and magnifcence. The
central figure of the memorial will be
statute of Queen Victoria, 13 feet
high, dressed in her robes of state,
seated amid groups symbolical of the
personal and imperial qualities which
made her reign so illustrious. On her
right will be Justice, on her left
Truth, and at her back Motherhood.
The memorial will contain II great
groups of figures and $50 panels. The
pedestal, with its plinth, will be 70
feet high. The cost has been fixed at
$1,250,000.

The Day of the Farmer.

The farmer who is not an amateur
La really an increasing factor, in to-day's
life. In fact, farming is rapidly be-
coming one of the professions. We
have our agricultural schools, just as
we have our law schools. 1t is get
ting to be business as we'll, remarks
The World To-Day. Farmers have
their trusts, like other manufacturers.
It is far cry from the New England
farmer, trying to arrange an exploded
granite quarry into stone wall that
he may have room in which to plant
his crop, and that master of capital,
science and black earth ten feet deep
who plows with traction engine and
reaps with ten-horse team. And be-
tween these two types of farmers the
drift is steadily toward the latter.

capitalist does not foreclose mortgages
on the prairie farm now. He borrows
money Of its owner. The farm is
the nursery of individualism. If you
are a cliff-dweller in the city send
your boy there this summer, and let
him see what it means to create
wealth with the help of nature rather
than with the ticker. You will help
make him a better American.

London, Ont, July 17.-Nine per-
several are missing and four are SER
iously injured as the result of the
collapse of a building on Dundas
street yesterday.
Crystal hall, a three story brick
building on Dundas street and one of
the landmarks of London, collapsed
while being remodeled. The falling
walls fell upon Brewster's 5 and 10
cent store, a low structure adjoining
on the east, completely burying it.
The stores of Hamilton, Long & Co.
and w. J. Reid & Co. on the first
floor of Crystal hall were filed with
wreckage.
Customers Fill Stores.
The crash came shortly after 8
O'Clock when all three stores were
filled with customers. 1t seemed that
the front wall of Crystal hall fell out
into the street. An instant later the
east wall gave way.
AS the front wall fell into Dundas
street passing pedestrians had mar
row escapes.
Two women walking on the side
walk heard the crash and started to
run. One of them was caught in the
wreckage, while the other escaped.
A woman with two children narrowly
escaped.
The fire and police department,
with all the ambulances and physi-
clans that could be mustered, at once
began the work of rescue. On &C
count of the great confusion at the
scene it was impossible to account
for all those supposed to have been
in the building when it collapsed.
Girls Are Entombed.
Cries were heard from the wreckage
in the Brewster store and rescue
party located three girls in an adj
joining cellar. They said they were
not injured and asked for food. Five
other girls can be communicated with
but are too frightened to say if any
of their number is injured.
Frank Reid, manager of the Reid
store, says all his staff escaped. Six
men who were at work on the build
ing are unaccounted far. The pile of
ruins seems impregnable and though
the rescuers work with frenzy they
will be hours releasing any who may
be in the thick of it.
Shortly after o'clock George Fis-
fallen was taken out, slightly injured.
The body of Archie McC allum, pho
tographer, was taken out later. w.
It. Hamilton was taken out, terribly
injured.
Has Baby in Arms.
A woman was located in the rear
of the Hamilton store. She had a
baby in her arms, but neither was in
jured. All efforts to release them
have been futile.
John Laney was taken out of the
ruins with fractured skull and inter-
nal injuries. 1t is thought he cannot
live.
The rescue parties worked on the
ruins all night. All the imprisoned
ones who could be communicated
with have been released. Many who
were thought to have been seriously
injured are only slightly hurt.

the police with difficulty prevented
the irate crowd from lynching the
