Postal Gains under
Rural Delivery.

Exception is taken by postal
experts to the reiterated state
ment that the expense incident to
rural delivery has been the cause
of the deficit in the postal reve-
nues of recent years is confirmed
by the records of the postoffice
department. In 1897, when the
expenditures on account of rural
delivery was only $14,840, the
postal deficit was $11,411,779,
while in 1907 the expenditures
for rural delivery had increased
to $26,755,524, and the deficit
had decreased $6,953, 282. These
figures are cited to demonstrate
that the increased expenditure
on account of rural delivery SER
vice bears no ratio to the annual
deficit. On the other hand it is
certain that the operation of the
rural delivery service is respon-
sible fora very large percentage
of the increase in the postal re-
ceipts. The establishment of a
rural delivery route, it is claim
ed, invariably brings with it a
great influx of mail to the local
ity affected, and this is gradu-
ally followed by the increase of
the outgoing mail. There has
also, it is said, been a saving of
more than $12,000,000 on &C
count of closing small postiffices
and disseminating star routes.

Three Judges to Agree
to an Injunction.

Senator Overman's bill for the
regulation of injunctions by Fed
eral judges was passed by the
Senate Friday. This is regarded
as the greatest triumph of SEN
ator Overman's career in Con-
gress. In speaking of the meas
ure, the author of the bill
said: "This measure proposes
that, whenever a petition is pre-
scented, the circuit judge shall,
before granting the injunction,

eve think that if this could
be done it would allay much in

was sadi by Mr.. Justice Harlan
in his dissenting opinion in the
Minnesota case, we have come to
a sad day when one subordinate
Judge can enjoin the officer of a
sovereign state from proceeding
to enforce the laws of the State

own state and thereby suspend

SON OF VETERAN WRITER
WHO WAS kIlLEr

The report that w. H. Kent, the
veteran newspaper man of the middle
west, had been killed by a train at
Watson, Mo, Monday, June 8, proves
to be erroneous, says the Omaha Bee.
W. R. Kent son of w. H. Kent, was
found dead there, n the error arose
in the confusion of names. w. H.
Kent was in the proof room of the Bee
when a telegram came last week tell
ing of the death of his son, who was
then en- route to Omaha, and he left
Friday for Missouri.

Chicago, H., June 18.-The most
crowded street in Chicago and prob
ably in the entire middle west has
been discovered, together with many
other odd facts, as the result of a cen
sus which Is being taken here for
the board Of education. The street Is
in the Fifth ward and is only three
blocks long but boasts a population
of 1857 people. Hardly a stones
throw away Is the most sparsely set
tied block in the city. When the cen
sus enumerator made his rounds he
found only one resident in the entire
block.
A Roosevelt Precinct.
The census is furnishing interest
Ing statistics regarding race suicide.
The Eighth precinct of the Seven
teenth ward has established a unique
record in this respect. Out of a little
over 1000 people in this precinct, 101
are babies under four years of ge.
or these SO are boys and So girls. In

ed in this one precinct whose cosmo-
p~olitian population includes Germans,
Poles, Irish, Jews, French, Hungarians,
Russians, Austrians, Noregians, Aus
tralians, Swedes, Prussians, English
and Welsh.
Striking Contrast.
The home of the race suicide was
discovered in the heart of the fashion
able district IN the South side. Out
of a population Of 1850 in this district
only 81 persons were found who were
under 16 years of age. The trouble

One enumeration, who was assigned to
the Chinese quarter, reported that all
his efforts to get information from the
slant-eyed Celectials met with utter
failure until he ran n a leader
of one of the Chinese secret societies
This man gave him a slip Of brown
paper on which were scrawled some
u~nintelligible characters and after

in getting all the information he want

Meanwhile his curiosity was aroused
and, when his work was completed, he
got a Chinaman to translate the in
scription on the paper. This will in
