5000. resulting from the prosecution of
DR.. Engle by his wife on an adultery
charge.

This decision is now reversed. Judge

The occasion of his majesty's ap-

known as Selamlik. 1t was the first

from the permanent census bureau in
this city.
1t is expected that the supervisors
will have completed their education by
January next, so that they can at
once begin the appointment Of their
enumerators, to whom, in turn, they
will give the same lessons they have
received. On April Is the enumerators
will take the field. and they must have
their work done within thirty days. In
cities of 5000 population or more they
must be more expeditions and must
complete the count within fifteen days.
The supervisors in each district will
open an office at a central point, from
which the work of the enumerators will
have force of clerks and aids for the
prompt transaction of business.
The supervisors will not only look
after the count Of the people in their
districts. but in all probability will
supervise the taking of the census of
manufactures, (which is to be taken
separately from the census of people
and agriculture. Special agents will be
appointed to do the field work, and
they will receive per diem pay, run
ming in some cases as high as 50 a
day.
In North Dakota there will be .wo
supervisors and about 400 enumerators,
against 2S0 Of the latter ten years ago.
In South Dakota there will also be
two supervisors, with an increase In
the number OF enumerators from 457
to about $50.
Wisconsin will have ten supervisors,
with an increase in the number OF emu
merators from 1900 to about 2,220, the
same number as Minnesota.

members of the state pharmacy COM
mission. Clemens represents the state
pharmacy association.
The governor also gave out for the
public a statement as to his reasons
for having the council deduct SIG
from the January and February bills
of Commissioner Keltz. He refers to
dates in June. July and August of last
year when he says he has evidence
that the bills were not correct. This
evidence consists of affidavits to the
effect that Keltz was in error as TO his
statements as to just where he was on
those dates.
The governor also asserts that the
matter was taken up last Tuesday and
the council had unanimously decided
upon removing Keltz from his posi-
ton.
keltz states that not until noon to-
day has he ever been able to secure
any statement as to what parts of the
items were questioned. and therefore
has not been in position to refutc the
evidence. He will go before the council
with a showing as to the correctness
of the bills for last year and also in
sist that the council can not deduct
from recent bills for alleged errors
nearly a year old.

CENSUS PATRONAGE TEMPTING.
1900 Enumerators for Minnesota In.
stead of LOO as Ten Years AGO.

stead Of 1,7oo as Ten Years Ago.
Washington, April %. Director
North Of the census bureau has COM
pleted plans for taking the next census,
beginning April Is next year. Ten
years ago, the enumerators were start
ed out in their respective districts
June I, but it has been decided ito be-
gin work on the next census six weeks
earlier, when the permanent popula-
ton Of cities will be in their regular
domiciles.
In Minnesota there will be much
larger force in the field than there was
ten years ago, when there were seven
supervisors and 100 enumerators.
Next year there will be nine supervis-
ors, or one for each congressional dis
trict, and 1900 enumerators.
In taking the census the districts
will follow the lines Of congressional
county forming one district, and st.
Paul, with Ramsey. Washington and
Chicago counties, another.
In some states the big cities have
been segregated and formed into sep
arate districts, but Director North has
figured it out that in Minnesota, by
following congressional district lines,
with an ample force in each district,
the results will be just as good as If
there were separate city districts.
The compensation of the supervisors
will be $1,000 per annum. with an adj
ditional 81 for every thousand people
enumerated. making total compensa-
ton in the rural districts about $4,000,
and In Minneapolis and st. Paul dis
tricts probably more than that amount.
The enumerators will be paid so
much per capita, except in districts in
which the enumerating is difficult on
account Of sparse settlements, where a
per diem salary will be paid. The SUI
pervisors will appoint the enumerators.
which makes the patronage for this
work rather tempting.
The supervisors are to be appointed
by the president. and confirmed by tb4e
