statistics of cities for the year 1908
The maintenance of schools repre-
sents 95 per cent of the total expenses
of cities for education" and cost more
than any other municipal function
while the protection OF life and prop

ed departments was second i'm cost.
These two functions of education and
protection of life and property cost
55 per cent of about $405,0 900,

tanning and operating city depart
ments. For the whole group of cities
the average per capita expense for
schools was S4.7O; for police depart
ments. $225: and for fire departments,
$1.72.
The increased cost of maintaining
the government departments of cities
in recent years is illustrated by the
fact that I'm 147 cities of over 10000
population in 1902 it was $l3.36 per
capita. while for the same cities In
1903 it was $f6.S1.

MORE INTERESTING
AFTER TOMORROW.

Philadelphia, July 27.-The politi-
cal situation in Pennsylvania. already
intensely interesting, will be rem
dered even more so when a third par
ty is given birth at the state conven-
tion To be held here tomorrow. The
convention proposes To nominate inde-
pendent candidates for the state Of
fees to be filled at the November cleo
tion and will work hard to defeat both
the regular Republican and Demo-
cratic tickets. Delegates To the con-
vention are already putting in an ar
pearance from all parts of the state
and from present indications the con-
vention will be well attended.
Since the plan for an Independent
ticket was first launched by the group
OF men who have been prominent in
previous reform movements i'm Penn
sylvania it has gathered recruits from
among Republicans and Democrats
all over the state. The demand for
an Independent ticket is based on the
liitll tiit i'A'lA AN'RhD
can and Democratic conventions named
as their respective candidates for
governor men who do not in any
wise represent the sentiment of the
voters of their respective parties"
and that neither nominee has i'm any

his career that he is a fit and COM

cutive of the second greatest com
monwealth of the Union
Pennsylvania this year will, elect a
governor. lieutenant governor. secre-
tary and treasurer. The Republicans
nominated Congressman Charles h.
Tener of washington county for gov
ernor and the Democrats AIMED Web

sponsors of the independent move

were dictated by the state machines
i'm utter disregard Of the wishes of the

OF NOMINATION.

Minneapolis, Mimi. July 27. A
lively and interesting session is pre-
dicted for the Democratic state con-
vention which will meet I'm the Audi
torium here tomorrow to nominate
candidates for governor lieutenant
governor, secretary of state, treasurer
and other state officers to be voted
for next November. The convention
will be composed of over 1000 dele
gates and majority of them are al
ready here.
Although the outlook for Democra-
tic success i'm Minnesota this year is
not regarded as so bright as 1t might
be, still the party leaders generally
entertain feeling of confidence and
believe that with the right candidate
for governor they will stand an even
chance. Since the death of Governor
Johnson the Democrats have lost con-
troll of the State House machine, as
all the other state offices are Re-
publican, and the state is normally
Republican by 25.000.
The situation I'm regard To the gu
bernatorial nomination remains un-
changed The prospects are that the
convention will nominate John Lind
as the candidate for governor. in spite
of the former governors refusal to be
the party standard bearer Mr.. Lind
has fatty declared that he will not
accept the nomination and has fled
to the Pacific coast In an effort to
escape the opportunities of his friends.
But notwithstanding his refusal the
prevailing opinion seems to be that
the former governor will be named
and that he will be persuaded to ac-
cept the nomination. providing that
county option is made the chief is
