The West Indies

The West Indian archipelago contains
an imense number of islands, with a
total area of 81, 900 square miles. They
present every variety of scenery, from
that of the coral island lying almost
awash with the waves to great noun
tains The total population is something
more than six million, of which number
about two-thirds are blacks, or with
African blood in their veins. The
nationalites represented are English.
Spanish, French, Dutch, Danish, Afri-
can and East and West Indian, the East
Indies being represented by imported
coolies, and the West Indies by few
hundred CaribS, descendants from the
aboriginal inhabitants. No descendant
survives of the Indians who once oc-
cupied the Greater Antilles, to the
number, when the Spanish first came
here, of several million, for they we're
exterminated by the conquerors within
a century after their arrival. The West
Indies are interesting because American
history began here. On one OF the is
lands in the mid Bahamas, probably
Wastlings, Columbus first landed Octo-
Der II, 1892. On his second voyage, he
founded town Isabella, on Santa Do
mingo. This was the first settlement by
white men in America. In Santa Do
mingo we have the oldest settlement in
existence since its foundation in 1896
and here may be found many relics of
the long-distant past, including the
remains of Columbus himself. Here
ne was imprisoned, and from its harbor
sailed to Spain in chains. In Porto
Rico may be seen the castle built by
Ponce de Leon before he set sail in
quest of the fountain of youth. Sue
ceedng Columbus came several
Spaniards whose names have come
down to us through centuries. Cortez
sailed from Santo Domingo for Mexico !;
Pizarro lived awhile in Santo Domingo.
Scenes identified with the famous buc-
cancers who committed such havoc with
the Spanish treasure ships in the
seventeeth century, are to be found at
St. Kits, Haiti, on the island of Tor
tuga and in Port Royal, once known as
the wickedest town in the world because
of its connection with the pirates. All
of the West Indian islands were once in
the possession of the Spanish.

ENUMERATORS ON
THE RANGES.
Livestock Census to be
Taken by Them Instead of
Special Agents.

Washington, D. c., February 18,
1910. 1t has been decided by the cen
sus bureau authorities to have the cen
sus enumerators take the census oi the
number and value Of the live stock on
the ranges of the western states as part
of the thirteenth decennial census, be-
ginning April 18th next.
The census authorities are convinced
that the enumerators will be able to
gather these statistics even more ex-
peditiously, correctly and economi-
cally than would be possible by special
agentssunder the existing conditions.
This decision was not reached until
after assistant director William +. Will
loughby had returned to the bureau from
a series Of conferences throughout the
west, which were attended by all the
census supervisors in the range states.
He was accompanied by chief stati sti-
clans William c. Hunt and lie Grand
Powers, of the population and argicul-
tural divisions. respectively.
The supervisors in conference recon-
mended that the work be placed in the
hands OF the enumerators. They as
sured the assistant director the enume-
rators can do it, in connection with the
count of population and farms, with
greater dispatch and economy than could
special agents. They stated that there
woud be no difficulty whatever If the
livestock owners were made to appre-
ciate the fact that in giving to the
enumerators the information regarding
their livestock holdings there is abso-
lutely no danger Of it being communi-
Gated to county assessors or forest SER
vice officials. The supervisors lstated
that otherwise there might be hesitancy
to furnish this data for fear it might
mean extra taxation or larger grazing
charges.
Mr. Willoughby pointed out to them
that under the act of Congress providing
for the present census every supervisor,
supervisors clerk, enumerator, inter-
prefer, special agent, or other employee
must make oath not to divulge any in
formation contained in the schedules,
lists, or statements obtained for or pre-
pared by. the bureau of the census to any
person or persons. He informed them
that the penalty clause in the law provides
that violation shall constitute a mis-
demeanor, to be punished by fine not
to exceed ST, 900 or by Imprisonment not
to exceed two years. or both fine and
Imprisonment, in the discretion of the
court. The authorities have always
maintained the position that all informa-
tion gathered by it was for its statistical
use solely, and would not under any
circumstances be impaired to any other
branch of the government.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot

There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inAamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when 1t is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-

are caused by Catarrh, which is moth

Last week the News told OF the action
OF the patrons of husbandry in Sonoma
county, in protesting that the county re-
ceived no benefits whatever from the
S4, 600 or IS, 900 it annually turns over to
the state commission in these license
fees, We now come to another mani
festation of opposition to the methods of
the feudal lords. In the San Francisco
Call of yesterday appeared the following
dispatch:
Yuba City, Feb. That the state
game laws are not popular in Suffer
county was never more clearly demon
strated than yesterday, when a jury in a
local court acquitted Joseph Barbato of
hunting without license. The evil
dence was plain, the posecution asserts,
but the verdict OF acquittal was reached
on the first ballot Although there have
been number of arrests recently there
has not been a conviction in this county.
No doubt the men who constituted
that Jury are plain, honest farmers and
taxpayers who want to know why it is
that the state fish and game commission
should be permitted to collect some
'Sl75,000 year in these foolish
"hunter's licenses, and then refused to
render public statement as to what is
done with the money. The Sutter county
method of acquitting man arrested for
failing to put up his dollar to hunt may
not be the approved legal one, but it is
an effective way, nevertheless, to show
contempt for a commission which ap-
parently holds the people in contempt.
