Census Talk and Facts

Although many have been impati-
ent to learn the results Of the recent
census, II is only fair to say that they
have been unreasonably so for re-
ports from Washington state that the
work Of compiling the returns has
been prosecuted with unusual celer-
ity.
The official figures for the state of
Rhode Island have just been announc-
ed. They are given out complete at
this early dlte TO meet the needs of
the state slslature which Is shortly
to convene for the purpose of reds
tricting the state. The wonderful
gain of % per cent is shown by the
figures, th total population being
5i2,6l4, against 1856 in 1900.
The population Of the principal cit
les follows:
Providence 224,26, an increase Of
21.S per cent as compared with 175-
597 In 1900
Pawtucket 5L622 as compared with
1921 in 1900
Woonsocket 9S.l25 rs compared
with 2S,2O4 in 1900
Newport 21l49 as compared with
22,034 in 1900.
Probably the most interesting fact
connected with the announcement is
that at the beginning OF the year the
governor Of Rhode Island estimated
the population for the World Altman
ac fully 10000 less than the census
returns show, while the city OF Prov
idence is actually found to contain
10000 more people than the mayor
claimed. In the same connection II
is interesting to note that the claim
Of the mayor Of Grand Rapids, Mich,
is exceeded by 30O0.-Ogdensburg

The Next Speaker

The Morrisville News and Citizen
pays a deserved tribute TO a desery-
ing man when it says:
Joseph A. DeBOer announces that
he will not be a candidate for repre-
sentative, That being the case the
speakership, which would have gone
to him without a contest will be
sought by many. Where is the best
man.
One OF the most influential and
therefore the most important Offices
to be filled by the people Of Vermont
this year will be that .of speaker of
the House of Representatives 1t is
timely to begin now to consider the
qualities desired in the man selected
for this position, before a canvass for
the honor has begun, for it is posi-
Bile to discuss the matter now with
out rejecting on any candidate or
aspirant.
The House is the branch of the
Legislature which originates all rev.
enue measures as well as much other
important legislation, 1t directly re-
presents the people, its members, in
all cases being chosen at least in
theory, directly by the voters of the
different towns.
The, man these representatives sell
ect for the speakership has more to
do with shaping legislation than even
the governor, for he names all the
committees of the House in addition
to influencing the course Of events af-
ter the work of legislation has begun.
1t is therefore thoroughly essential
that the speaker be a man who has
the backbone as well as the desire
and the determination to adopt as his
standard Of measure OF every ques-
ton the true interests OF the people
as whole or is formulated by pub
licists, the greatest good of the great
est number, which means the same
thing.
The legislator who will keep his
eye single to the interests of the
commonwealth as a whole is the
prime need of the people of Vermont
this year, especially in the speakers
chair, The opportunity for genuine
public service in this position was
never greater than at the present
time and the right man. whom the
people can trust as speaker, will win
enyiable prestige.-Burlington Free

General regret will be felt through.

Hon. JOS A. DeBoer not to permit the
use of his name as a candidate for

would have been chosen speaker OF
the House with little or no opposi-

The declination of Hon. Joseph A
DeBoer of Montpelier to be a candid
ate for representative and for the
speakership this year is drawing at
tention to this important matter. Nat
urally there are no active candidates
for the speakership until after the
election but it does no harm to dis
cuss the subject in the meantime.
One Of the greatest wastes in our
state is in the management of the
legislative session. A reform Of the
rules and methods Of doing the work
would cut off many thousand dollars
of expense biennially. The old rules
and procedure were all right in their
day but the business has outgrown
them and there is crying need of inn
provement. While the speaker is only
the chief servant Of the House the
carrying out of the work viii depend
not a little on his skill in appointing
committees and referring bills so as TO
keep as many as possible at work in
stead of turning over all the impor-
tant measures 10 a few members. A
few essential changes are made in
the rules and speaker qualified to
carry the changes into effect will be
one OF the best investments the state
could make.

MRS. TOTTEN MAKES POOR
WITNESS N OWN BEHALF
Intense Excitement in Courthouse Yesterday Afternoon
as Defendant Gives Her Version of the Shooting in
Which Young James Sutton Was Killed - Woman
Has Poor Memory and Made Very Poor Witness.

If the jury returns q verdict that
Mrs. Della Totten is guilty of COM
hitting murder in the first degree
her own failure as witness will be
largely responsible for the fact. This
is the belief of several close observ-
ers of the trial now in progress at
the county court house. A promi-
nent attorney stated that the woman
made he poorest witness on her own
behalf that he ever heard.
L was half past two yesterday az
ternoon when the woman was called
to take the stand. The hour for
which the curiosity mongers had
waited In breathless anticipation had
come. Every eye was riveted on her
as the clerk administered the oath.
The aisle was crowded in every inch
and those in the rear forced those
In front inside the railing, so great
was the curiosity to hear the story
about to be spoken from the lips of
Mrs. Totten herself.
Several times during the examin-
alton of the witness, Judge Grim
shaw. with stern command. demand
ed respect for his court by the spec
tators. In vain the sheriff raped
