anil quite q sum OF money to get

same salary as that proposed for each
member Of the Board OF Control. The
members OF the Board Of Control
would stand on an equal footing with
the governor In point Of salary and
would outrank any State official in
both salary and prestige. It will be
remembered that the State Tax Com

A PROPHET OF CALAMITY.

N UST what has turned Mr.. James ]. Hill, the
railroad magnate, into a modern Jeremiah,
a prophet of calamity, is not quite evident, but
he has recently been busy lamentng over the
calamties that will overtake us il we do not
consider the future. Among the thoughtful, who
have always an eye to the future, Mr.. Hills warn
ing may lodge, but the ordinary man, the man in
the street is not going to worry about what will
happen hundred years from now to our national
resources, which Mr.. Hill thinks are in danger
of exhaustion The average man is too busy
providing for his daily bread in these times of
high prices to worry over the fate of his children
or grandchildren. They will have 10 look out
for themselves
But Mr.. Hills prophecies are more or less
interesting 10 those who wish to speculate about
the future, who would like to know what the
people of Mars are doing and whether they
themselves will go up or down when they die.
Certain it is that we should give some heed TO
the care of the resources of the country, and
should consider what means this advance in the
cost of living where it will end
The next census will be more interesting than
usual in showing the development of the country.
Recently learned writer complained that cen
sus every ten years is practically useless that all
it amounts to IS to give Jobs to the census takers,
but the census really is important and ten years
to some people is a long time to wait for such
report. Cities, many of them, have police cen
suses taken TO estimate their own population as
iHty diC uhWlllllR 10 walt lOl SONCllllllSlll
report.
But the industrial part of the census will be
just as important as that relating to population,
and it will throw considerable light upon indus
trial conditions. great increase in population
and enormous increase i'll our wealth will
undoubtedly be noted and people will throw up
their hats and declare how great we are.
OF course there will be a glad cry over
the great wealth that the country will show;
the per capita of wealth will be figured out, and
we shall be told how rich we are. And yet there
is nothing more deceptive than such methods of
estimating the prosperity of a nation. The real
happiness of people depends not so much upon
how much wealth is in the country, but how
that wealth is distributed. Ancient nations that
went to the bad" had plenty of wealth-in the
hands of few.
The new census will show whether there has
been proportionate increase of wealth in the
hands of few-that is the census will furnish
figures from which the economists will make
their estimates, for the government is usually
chary about touching this matter-the distri-
button of riches.
Some writers contend that wealth in the United
States is more widespread, more evenly dstrib-
uted than ever before, but if so, why do we have
this constant complaint about the increase in
the cost of living and a cry from some men, Mr.
Hill among the number, that the standard of
living must be lowered?

The Hon. James Wilson is congratu-

sumner when he shows that the increase
in the price OF farm products has been
greater than the increase in the price
OF other commodities. He tells us the
general fact is that in the upward
movement OF prices since 1886 the pro-
ducts Of the farm have Jared better
than any other class OF commodities,
the only important exception being I'M

that Patrolman William J. Davidson
will be complimented for his good work
on Saturday morning last. While
going home from court he saw three
men in a Front street shoe store and
upon making an investigation found
they were trying to sell new shoes. He
followed the men. he being in plain
clothes at the time, and saw they
wore new shoes. shirts and hats. As he
learned some hours previously that a
store had been robbed I'm Frederick.
He called for assistance and the men
were arrested. The property they mad
was later identified as that stolen from
the Frederick store
