positive assurance of the con6den-
tial treatment Of iniermation called
tor by the live stock questions in
the general agricultural schedule. as
| could if a confidence were % be
imposed upon me personally and
privately The Census Bureau is
concerned only in the collection aud
publication Of statistical facts. The
spirit Of every act Of Congress pro-
viding for the various decennial
censnses has been and is, that the
information as 10 individuals, firms
and corporations is to be given sb-
solute secrecy. II is as much priv
ileged information rs that impaired
by client TO lawyer, by a patient
to physician, by dying man to q
minister 1t cannot even be impart-
ed TO another branch of the Federal
Government. no matter how much
the information may he desired No
court has ever or ever will ignore
this immunity from personal or
business involvement bestowed in
return for information required bv
United States Census inquiries To
do otherwise would impair, II not
wholly destroy, the scientific eiiicien-
cy OF the census work So far as
the live stock census is concerned,
the bureau, following fair impartial
aud unbiased methods, quickly sep
arates the person, firm aud corpora
tion from the facts furnished, aud
private or corporate identity in con-
nectlon with any census data re-
mains forever sealed and sacred in
the great safes of the Census Office.
in addition, any enumerator in
my district. who in any manner
gives out Information concerning the
facts obtained, will not ONLY he i'm
mediatelv discharged, but his act
will be reported to the United States
authorities for action under Federal
Statutes. Again, | want to assure
the stockmen, as well as every other
individual whom information is
sought from, that all such informa-
tion will be treated in an absolutely
'hdential manner The Census
Bureau exists solely for the collec-
ton of general statistics and is not
and should not be an instrument for
disclosing the affairs of individual

hope to have the cooperation of the
stockmen as well as every other loyal
citizen, in making al effort to prop
erly enumerate the resources of

GOLD PRODUCTION
Is TOO GREAT NOW

St. Paul. Mimi, June 23.-Speal<ing on
the ''high cost of living" before the, Min
nesota Bankers association today, Pres
ident W. C. Brown of the New York
Central lines quoted statistics to show
the increase in the cost of all products OF
the farm, factory and mines, and then
said in part Economists agree that as
the basic metal (gold) increases in guam
tity, the price of everything measured by
and paid for with that metal is tnvari-
ably enhanced in value. For this rea-
son the pay of labor has steadily adj
vanced and must continue to advance on
some fair ratio with the increase in the
cost of things that labor must buy. To
put it another way, wages must go up
in about the same proportion that the
purchasing power of the money of the
|laborer goes down.
After discussing the increase in gold
production, the speaker said:,
"Unquestionably this great increase in
the production of gold has powerfully in
fiuenced the values of everything in which
men deal, everything save wages, rail-
road rates and fixed incomes from long
time securities, continuously and almost
eoincidentally adjust themselves to the

Washington, June 23.-The Senate to-.

NORMA SCHOLAR
DRAWS A CROWD
PRINA DONNA,s FORMAL DEBUT
HEREIN FINE FORM AND HER
ART APPRECIATED BY DIsCRIM-
MATING PUBLIC

After achieving distinction in grand
opera in Germany, Miss Norma Scholar,
whose home is In Birmingham, made her
formal debut here in a concert at the
Jefferson theatre last night. 1t was
stormy evening, yet Notwithstanding that
fact the theatre was we'll filed and a
more discriminating audience has seldom
assembled.
Miss Scholar was always q favorits
in Birmingham musical circles, but now
that she has developed into prima
donna soprano of high rank, her ad-
mirers have abundant reason to feel
genuinely proud of her. And the en-
thusiasm with which she was greeted
at the Jefferson reflected most credit
ably upon Birmingham taste for musl-
cal art and it's appreciation Of womanly
grace and honest endeavor.
The concert was given under the aus
pices of Miss Daisy Rowley and 1t was
for the benefit of Miss Rowley's Musical
Education Fund Miss Scholar was as
sisted by Miss Holt. piano, who opened
the programme with a double number:
Mrs. Grace Beggs, violin; Mr.. Luckie.
baritone, and Miss Lucia Barclift, piano
accompanist. They were cordially re-
ceived while the star of the evening met
with a real ovation.
These were Miss Schoolrr's pieces

When the prima donna left Birmingham
and went abroad to study she was reck-
oned in the artist class, but all music
lovers and critics remarked last night
wonderful Improvement. She sings now
with great style.
She was in splendid voice. and both
in the trying dramatic numbers and In
the little ballads she was the matured
artist Her lower notes were particu-
arly rich, but her tone quality as well
| as her vocalization were excellent
throughout. No one but thoroughly
schooled dramatic singer could have
sung at" the number from the Val
kyries much less delivered II as II
was meant To be delivered. But Miss
Scholar did 1t in true Wagnerian
spirit and with real authority. 1t Ia
an artistic triumph.
Miss Scholar is sure to draw in BIZ

to appear.
