APPLICANTS HERE FOR CENSUS
J0BS
CONTINUED from page one.)

NSohlihutN iiOlu pdet out-
candidates who will enumerate the
country.
To prepare the way and to insure
every applicant being given a fair
chance. the supervisors will send in
advance to each and every candidate
set of printed instructions for fill
ing in these sample schedules.
Between February 5 and February
% the supervisors will go through
the test" papers, satisfy themselves
as to the qualifications of those who
have passed, and make their designa-
tiOns or recommendations to the cen
sus director. The next step will be
the directors approval, and then the
supervisors will issue the commits
sions to the enumerators.
Director Durand expects to have
the army of 1000 or more enumer-
ators picked, tested, designated, and
commissioned by the middle or lat
ter part of March. From then on
until April Is the supervisors will
send the enumerators circulars and
books of instruction concerning the
meaning of the schedule questions
and the way the enumerators should
write in the answers obtained from

certain supervisors districts for the
purpose of meeting the enumerators
personally and giving them additional
information concerning the character
of their duties.

directions concerning the method of
preraring them, can be secured by
writing at once to the supervisor

HEAT THE PARK OPERA HOUSE

To The Sentinel:
We don't want to be called a
knocker. There was a good show at
the Park opera house last night; but
the house was so chilly that the aud
ience could not enjoy the perform
ance as fully as they would under
normal circumstances.
Maybe the house would have been
warmer if the audience had been a
big one.
Tomorrow night there is a corking
good show coming. 1t is one of the
best: we know it. All we hone is
that the house will be comfortable,
so that everybody will enjoy the per-
formance to the fullest extent. 1t
will be fine production and should
have a crowded house. All we ask
is comfortable house.

vestigate state officials.

The committee consists of Allen,
Fishback. Representatives Taylor,

as the public prosecutor of Spokane
county was one unheard of.
In passing on the case Judge HUI
neke said that whatever might be
his private views on the right of
taking stenographic evidence in the
grand Jury room they should have
no bearing on his finding as judge
in interpreting the law. He held
that the attorneys for Gordon had
the right AS counsel for an accused
party about to be investigated and
as friends of the court to raise the
question rs to the practice about to
be followed In the grand jury room.
The court held that whatever tes-
timony is taken in the grand jury
room should be by the clerk but
that SO long as the prosecutor took
long hand notes of the evidence
and left the same with the clerk of
the grand jury there would be no
objection. The court declined to
say what effect testimony taken in
