The best way is to tell the census

more, but that will probably be
done without the suggestion,
There is n jump of ten years

ploys an army of 10, 200 patriots

of how the country has grown rs
well as provide figures for con-
gressional representatives and
senators, tits considered to be an
obligation on the part of resi-
dents to make as little trouble as
possible when responding to the
probe. The census man may
want to know some of the follow
ing facts:
Are you white or black?
Are you married or single,
and if so, why?
Your age, please, date of
birth. How old are you?
Where was your last residence
and how many bill collectors call

''Do you believe marriage is Il
failure, and what is the judges
name who granted the divorceY

alive, and how many dogs are

NO BIG STOCK LOSS.

1t has been reported by out
side papers that the loss of stock
in Harvey county has been enor-
nous. We have to go away from
home to get the news it seems
for a careful inquiry among the
stockmen of this county fails to
bear out the statement. So far,
except perhaps an occasional in
stance, the loss has been nothing
more than normal.
OF course we have been rather
short of forage for such a severe
winter, yet stock in general has
not suffered nor will they if the
breakup and open weather comes
at the usual time in the spring.

SOME noe FROM MISSOURI.

Messrs j. c. Foley, Geo. Young
and j. w. Biggs are the posses
sors of a bran new Poland China
boar that arrived here this week
from Missouri. The animal
weighed lbs lbs. when he started
on his journey by express to On
tario and from that point he was
shipped by Kellogg's fast freight
to Burns and upou his arrival
here was billed as weighing $40
lbs. This astonishing increase
in weight has caused more or less
comment and is a question does
it reflect upon our rapid trans
portation facilities or should the
transportation people be given
credit for good feeding?
The animal attracted consider
able attention from farmers yes
terday before being taken out to
the Biggs farm. He is fine
hog and with few more impor-
tations like him we will be pro-
ducing some fine porkers.
Incidentally it might be men
toned in passing, that this hog
didn't come direct; he was in
possession of Dalton Biggs at
for some time before be-
ing shipped on in.

BIG FIRE AT BAKER.

A phone from Baker City

$500, 900 in property was destroy

about midnight and the fire fight

shape owing to frozen pipes, etc.
The block was almost entirely
wiped out, the losers being the

Can't Escape the Census. Man.

Every person, regardless of
sex, color, creed, politics or pre-
vious condition of servitude,
must answer the question of the
census taker. There is no escap-

has directed his supervisors to
ask all to look pleasant and to
warn them not to evade the
questions that are fired at them.
1t only comes once in a while and
must be gone through with.

considerable loss before the final

Mr.. Stevens said that the road

not admit chat the company had
definitely located its line through

Attorney A. A. Birney insisted that Mr..
Duke on this occasion had gone to Park

ersburg as a guard for the United States
Express Company. and was returning to
Washington on q pass issued by the rail-
road company to the express company
on condition that no liability should be
incurred by reason OF any personal in
jury.
Counsel for the plaintiff argued, with
other things, that the pass was issued
to the express company in connection
with an agreement for carrying express
matter. and that therefore considera-
ton existed and was given for the pass,
and that where consideration exists the
stipulation as to freedom from liability
could not be maintained.
Justice Barnard held that, a considera-
ton having been given Tor the pass, Mr..
Duke should be considered as q paasen-
the company where the pass had been a.
copied for transportation.
