Points Regarding the Census.

The census begins April 10 aud

The ennmerators will wear Il badge
inscribed United States Census.
1907
The law requires every adult person
to furnish the prescribed information
but also provides that il shall be treat
ed confidentially, so that no injury
can come to any person from answer
ing the questions.
The Census Bureau, prior to April
Is, will distribute to every farm owner
and tenant in this state blank or
schedule containing the Census qnes-
tions relative to farm operations and
equipment. This should be filled up
If possible not later than the morning
Of April IS, but if anyone has been un-
able to fill it up by that time, he
should do it as soon afterwards AZ he
can.
People who do not speak English or
Wbo Wv bOl tnt
completely should get helpfrom others
If possible in filling ii up.
The President has issued u procla-
nation, calling on all citizens to co.
operate with the Census and assuring
them that it has nothing to do with
taxation, army or jury service, com
pulsory school attendance, regulation
OF immigration, or enforcement OF
any law, and that no one can be in.
jured by answering the inquiries.
1t is Of the utmost importance thai
the farm census Of this state be com
plete and correct.
Therefore every farm owner ant
tenant should promptly, fully, and &C
curately fill the advance Farm Sche
dule" and carefully preserve it for the
enumerator when he calls.

RAILROADS RAISE WAGES.

Without display or ostentation of
any kin d. and indeed without the
general public knowing that the mat
ter was seriously under advisement,
notices were posted in the offices of
division superintendent of the Z. Il.
Il. stating briefly that, beginning on
April 1, an advance of per cent i.
would be made in the pay of all en-
ployes of the company receiving less
than $1,000 a year. This applies to all
lines both east and west of Pittsburg,
and affects about 1876, 900 men.
The increase not only applies to
those employees whose organizations,
such as the Brotherhoods of Conduct
ors, Engineers, Firemen aud Train
men, recently made formal demand
for an advance in wages but to all
Others such ms clerks, track hands,
signal and telegraph operators, men
in the shops and i'll NIL the other end.
less lines of activity of the great cor
poration. In Altoona alone 1000 men
will be affected and in Philadelphia
the number is very large. 1t is esti-
mated that the increased expense to
the company will be from 80, 900, 900 to
SIC, 000, 600 year, ms Its annual pay
roll Is now running considerably over
800, 900, 90.
1t is understood that the directors
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad were all
the more ready to give the increase to
the men because of the high prosperity
which the company is now enjoying
The annual report submitted to the
recent annual meeting showed the
greatest earnings in the history of the
company, and this year they are ex-
pected to be considerably larger be-
cause of the general revival in trade
For this reason the added expense to
the company, even should it reach
S10, 900, 900 can be carried with com
paratiye ease.
Following the example set by the
Pennsylvania Railroad on Tuesday,
the Philadelphia & Reading Railway
Company late Wednesday afternoon
made the official announcement that
effective April general increase
of 6 per cent. of wages will be made to
all permanent employees whose pay has
not been adjusted within the last 80
days and who are now receiving less
than $500 per month" This notice
was posted early Wednesday night in
the office of every division superinten-
dent and was joyful news to the army
of men who will benefit by the in
crease.
Just how many of the Reading men
will get this 6 per cent. advance is
not positively known and can only be
estimated until the number Of em-
ployes whose wages have recently
been adjusted can be tabulated. The
company now has on its pay rolls
about $1,000 men and it is intimated
that approximately 20, 900 will come in
for the increase, which is now figured
ont as aggregating an addition Of
81, 400. 600 to the operating expenses of
the company. Like the action of the
Pennsylvania, the increase was based
on the prevailing high cost of living
and the desire of the officials TO assist
employees in every way possible.

Speaking of the purple martin coll
ony at BlairstowD, the Press says:
John McCracken, the founder Of the
purple martin colony in Blairstown,
and who was the first citizen to in
duce these summer visitors to come
here, by providing satisfactory houses
for them, has made sa satisfactory can
vass of the town and finds that we
now have accommodations for 1000
martins. Two houses Of nearly 100
rooms were erected this spring. The
birds will not come North until their
food is ready for them, but usually
arrive the first week in April. They
feed on the wing. eating flies, mosqui-
toes and other insects, and aIight on
the ground only to gather materials
for their nests"

WE HAVE Them HERE.

We reprint the following item,
which is going the rounds of the news
papers and We clip from a Warren
county exchanges:
No paper can be published without
home patronage, and every man is in
terested in keeping mp home paper.
If railroad or factory is wanted, the
newspapers are expected to work for
it. If public meeting is wanted for
any purpose the newspaper is called
upon for free notice. If any of the
societies have a supper or reception
the newspaper is expected to give the
necessary notice. The newspaper
must puff the schools and everything
else to advance the interests of the
business men of the place, aud give
them n handsome notice when they
pass away. And yet some of them do
nothing to keep up home paper.
There is lot OF truth in the above and
yet we find men whose We Y business
lives depend absolutely on the i'm
proyement aud growth of the COM
munity who do not spend one cent to
the support of the newspapers, when
il the newspapers were wiped out of
existence, AS they would be if every
one were like them in their support,
the towns would stop growing, their
business would go to more progress
sive places, and in fact no more de-
plorable condition could be thought
of than community having once had
one or more newspapers to be without
them. When we hear business man
say that it does not pay him to ndver-
tise, we feel sorry to think of what Il
small hole he is looking at the world
through.
Every business man should support
every newspaper in his community.
While it might be possible to have
more newspapers than community
can support, yet the community can
never be other than benefited by their
being there. The retrenchment of
the local dealer in his advertising in
the local paper is the door which il
found wide open for the mail order
house to find its way into that local
ity's homes aud get its patronage.
