CENSUS DIRECTOR

out yesterday afternoon ia reliable quar-
tiers that Census Director North would
stay. An adjustment viii be reached as
the result Of the long conference be-
tween President Taft, Secretary Nagel,

difference between DR.. North and the
department Of commerce and kbor were
not irreconeiable. and that peace was
possible without either Nagel or North
quitting Office
North IS sick in bed today as the re-
suit Of the controversy, and is on the
verge of nervous prostration. Efforts TO
remove him brought protests from such
men as Senator Root, Senator Crane,
Representative Cfumpacker, chairman
Of the House committee on census, and
Senator La Toilette. chairman Of the
Senate census committee.
Senator Root is great friend Of
North, and believes in him, and he took
up the cudgel in his defense.
North's friends are making some ugly
charges in connection with the fight for
his removal. They allege that tabulat-
iHs machine company which would have
got enormous returns out Of the tabula-
ton OF the next census has helped to stir
up the opposition to North for the rea-
son that be was about to put in opera
ton a machine invented by experts in
his Office which would have affected a
great saving to the government

Nagel is not responsible for opposition
to North. but that Il proceeded from AS

There sits a woman in a lonely nIace
Where AIl-Souls' twilight ever
bends and broods;
With hungry hope and fear upon her
face.
She gazes down those dreamy sou-
There at the crossroads, peering to
and fro,
Straining her glance athwart the
shadows gray,
Lest any little traveller she might
Come by that way
For long, so long she has waited:
now and then
A tiny figure looms along the road
Shy, scarce-awakened from the world
Of men,
seeking uncertainty its new abode.
And eagerly she stoops, she scans
its eyes,
Asking some look, some tender
answering sign,
And still she lets it go again, and
signs,
Not mine-O God-not mine,"
But some day, surely in a bolden
hour,
The sweet familiar shape will he
described.
Delaying here and there for berry or
flower,
But drawing ever nearer to her
side,
No need of greeting between child
and mother.

and fast
In that one clasp, each blended in the
other,
That pays for all the past!
