CENSUS PADDING.

Tacoma, Seattle and Portland,
Minneapolis and other cities face a
serious situation as the result of the
announcement of Director Durand that
gross frauds had been perpetrated in
these cities in compiling the 1910 cen
sus. How serious we're the frauds in
ali OF these cities is not known, but it
is announced that Tacoma padded its
census to the extent Of 1926 names.
Not content with an increase of As
25S. or 100 per cent. which gives Ia
coma population of S2,972, that city
turned in q figure of 116.248 and has
called forth from the president a de.
mand that the grand jury Investigate
and bring about the prosecution Of
those who attempted fraud upon the
law.
In Tacoma, it is charged, the emu
merators accepted printed slips fur
nished BY individual citizens bearing
fraudulent names and added these
names to the enumeration without
making any investigation and after
the house to house canvass of the city
had failed 20 locate such parties.

1t doesn't pay to set yourself up as
a newspaper prophet. On the day
Roosevelt was in St. Louis, one Of the
afternoon papers Of that city pictured
Roosevelt as registering an emphatic
refusal to take ride in an aeroplane.
Before the papers were on the street
the colonel had enjoyed his jaunt in
the clouds and said he was only sorry
he couldn't have taken longer ride.

declared emphatically that Walter
Wellman would never really start his
flight across the Atlantic. Three or
four hours. after the paper had gone

the nerve to make the attempt and he
is entitled TO all credit even though he
does not fully succeed in his ambitious
program.

Indications are that Champ Clark
will have hard time to secure a re-
election to congress from his Missouri
district, The st. Louis Globe-D emocrat
says that the ninth district, which
Champ represents, has lost several
thousand in population during Mr..
Clark's long period in congress. and
realizes that it gets less than nothing
for itself by boosting the personal am
bition of an incorrigible demagogue,
who promises the earth to anybody
who will vote for a return to the good
old democratic times Of 1926. It
strikes the ninth district, the st. Louis
paper adds, that the spectacle OF Clark
in the speakers chair would be no
compensation for declining population,
bourbon incapacity in Washington and
a free trade blight upon home indus
tries.

Many evidences have been furnished
of the phenomenal increase OF land
values in Iowa. Many Iowa farmers
have grown rich from the enhancement
in land values alone. Another indica'
ton Of the money to be made on an
Iowa farm, however, comes from Wat
erloo. Otto Thomas, who conducted q
rented farm in Tama county, twenty
miles south OF Waterloo, for several
years, had made enough money as the
result Of a farm sale, to buy q good
farm in Black Hawk county. At this
sale, fifteen head Of horses brought

S45 a head, two-year-olds for $55 to $65
and cows for $50 to $75. Hogs brought
top prices and other property sold IN
proportion. There is money for the ten
ant as well as the owner Of an Iowa

SENATOR Dou4svER's DEATH.

The entire nation shares with Iowa
the shock occasioned by the sudden
death OF Senator Dolliver. Not since
the death OF his colleague, the ven
cradle Senator Allison, has the coun-
try been so deeply stirred by the pass
ing OF q public man. The shock ts In
tensifled by the suddenness with which
the end came. Reassuring messages
had been sent over the wire but few
hours before. He had spent part OF
the day walking about the lawn, jok-
ing and laughing with friends VINO
called to see him, with no thought
then that the end was but few
hours off.
Senator Dolliver was called when
he was in the very prime of an active
career. He first gained prominence IN
Iowa through his great oratorical aDli-
tiles while yet a stripping lawyer. He
attracted national attention when
member Of the lower house OF con
gress from the tenth Iowa district. His
eloauence as public speaker brought
him In great demand as platform
speaker; and during several national
campaigns he was called upon to tour
from coast to coast. He was twice
mentioned for the vice presidency, and
undoubtedly would have been nomi-
mated on the ticket with President
Taft II he had consented to accept the
honor. In the last session Of congress
he was one Of the acknowledged
leaders and his speech in that session
during the tariff bill debates was de-
clared to be the ablest speech heard
IN congress last year.
Senator Dolliver was master OF
rhetoric. His vocabulary was I'M
usually extensive. OF magnetic per-
sonality, he combined. q fiery elo-
uuence with wealth Of wit with
which he satirized his opponents ana
made himself one of the ablest of the
congressional debaters. 81.
Senator Dolliver was on some OF the
most important senate committees.
He was an indefatigable worker in
the committee room, and in addition
to these labors was deep student OF
pending measures Mrs. Dolliver mas
told how last winter he worked on
the tariff schedules constantly far into
the night, and this undermined his
naturally strong constitution. He had
not been well since the session OF
congress closed, but he continued his
activity until his health completely
failed. D
With the retirement Of Senators
Aldrich and Hale it was prophesied
that Senator Dolliver in the next con-
eress would reach the first ranks OF
leadership. His death closes q long
and useful life in the public service
and ends a career that seemed destined
to be marked by. even greater achieve
ments.

m Everybody's Magazine.

My clothes were too thin for comfort, and didn't own a pair of rubbers. Pres ently a maid beckoned me to step up- stairs, and a lady received me in bed, propped up with pillows. As she made arrangements with me my sight grew clear enough to notice the luxurious ob- jects around her, the big bed with it's fine sheets, Its warm silk covers: everything so expensive and elegant, and to me so unfamiliar. She asked me to take my jacket off, but my blouse was in a shab- by state and l refused. Usually I was agreeable with people, l think. but this time I felt as if the wind and snow had gone right down deep to my heart. l had eaten only a bite of lunch, and every now and then, I wrote, something gave way inside of me, and finally all culmi- mated in a single feeling. As waited for Mrs. Ellsworth to consult a list, l looked down at the foot of her bed. and there stood her little slippers. They were small and pink made of some fine brocade. with high French heels, corded around with silver cord and with small pink rosettes at the top. They were dainty and elegant. restful, awfully expensive looking, and they struck me terribly! l learned afterward that she had paid $25 for them. They were just the final touch to the tired-outness and the meagerness of long time-to the denials of a poor life

 The Pope is never so much in his ele- ment as when he is preaching to large congregation of plain people. In the Sun day afternoons of summer he lets them into a large open court in the Vatican and delivers sermon on the gospel of the day; for 20 minutes Cor 9 at the outside) he exIounds for them in powerful but musical voice the simple truths of Chris tianity.
 But if he loveG the plain people he has the warinest corner in his heart for the poor and the very first act of his ponti- fcate was Il proof of this. The day after his election he called Cardinal Mo- ccnni, wiio was then administrator of the finances of the holy sec and told him he wished the sum of 100000 francs to be di- Vided at once among the neediest of the Roman poor.
 The cardinal hesitated-there was very little money at the moment at his dis posal-1OOG00 francs would be a very se- we're drain. He explained all this to the Pope and asked him to change the amount.
 "Very we'll" said the Pope, smiling, If you want me to change the amount l will make it 20o,o0c." Needless to say the car dinal escared immediately and distrib- uted the original sum.
 Certain days are set apart for the holy father to receive the children of the con vents and parochiai schools AS in the United States, the convents are paying schools generally, and have branches in which the poor children are taught. A request was rnade for an audience for the children instructed by one of the religious communities, and a further request that the children taught in the convent should be received in q separate room from those of the pdrochial schools. The holy father s answer was Q polite No, they are all my children" And he would make no dis tinction.
 When the news of the terrible earth quake at Calabrs reached him four years ago he at once sent for the relief Of the victims every cent he could lay hands on, and when that was spent and the piteous appeals continued to pour in upon him he was seen to weep over his powerlessness to do more. Happily the Catholic world showed It's sympathy with him on that occasion. for within a couple of months he WAS enabled to send 750,000 franc to the sufferers.
