Has the census man got you yet!
 Uncle Sans enumerators, who are counting noses in Globe and throughout Arizona generally under the direction of Supervisor Franklink F. Towle, have been busy for the past two weeks and have already covered large portion of the territory assigned to them. They have two weeks left in which to finish their work and will more than likely quiz the head of every family in this district as well as the Unmarried resi-. dents of legal age,' but in the event that anyone is overlooked, the coupon printed above should be filled in and mailed to Mr. Towle.
 Of course it is the intention of cen sus enumerators to secure data regard

imprecations as ever hammered on the
 porches of civilized ear:
 "Allah, il Allahl" muttered the in
 can swear some. "
 The swear words seemed in some way
 to refer to the railroad or the tracks or the railroad officials. And the more the Arab swore the greater grew the wonder at the intensity of his volubility until the interpreters eye followed his and lighted upon the hieroglyphics on the station arches. Then a light came upon him.
 "By the Beard of the Prophet" :" said he. "These Arabic decorations up there are the confoundedest lot of cuss words I ever saw. Everything that pictur esque Arab could invent in the way of big D's and>dashes has been interwoven into that decorative effect. No wonder my friend nere threw a fit l never no- ticed them before, but the Southern Pa cifc is there denounced and double de- nounced in the most horrfic cursing have ever known. Why was this done? Who did it?'
 Of Such Is Revenge
 Still the wonder grew until George Howard, architect of the station and of the recently burned Burlingame club house, was appealed to. There was a disposition to chaff him for having made q mistake in taking the dreadful oaths and imprecations for merely decorative texts. But Howard laughed and show ed every sign of glee.
 80 someone has read those inscrip- tions at last" said he. "Well, there was no mistake in placing them. l did it on purpose and with malice afore- thought. When was building that sta tion and doing a lot of other things to help the railroad, though I was entitled to pass. But the railroad very curtly turned down my application.
 So l hunted out the deepest impre- cations in the Arabic tongue and fixed them in the decorations of that depot. -here silently to curse the niggardly rail road for all the years to come. 1 have hxed my curse on the terra cotta and sraVen my vengeance upon the rocks.D
 But that wandering arab went on his way muttering prayers from the Koran md adding to the request to be deliver 'd from the wiles of women blowing ipon knots, a application that the 'engeance of those who knock npon | tones be tended from his simple heart.

The First Census.

The first census, taken in 1890,
was simple enumeration of the
population of the United States. 1t
filed in large type fifty-six pages
of thin pamphlet with tables
which two or three pages of the
World Almanac would easily hold.
Each copy of the Philadelphia ISSUE
was signed by Thomas Jefferson,
secretary of state. Some surpris-
ing changes have since occurred.
North Carolina was then more
populous than Massachusetts, aud
Massachusetts more populous than
New York, while Virginia led the
list with sixty per cent. more peo-
pie than Pennsylvania. Brooklyn
had fewer people than Newton or
North Hampstead The only
mandate for a census in the Con-
stilution is provision for an "act-
ual enumeration" to be made in
such manner as Congress shall di-
rect, to serve as a basis for appor-
t:oning Representatives and direct
taxes" If the census soon to be
taken, the thirteenth, were 10 be
like the first, mere enumeration
of the people, the work could be
finished in few months and print
ed in single small volume. In
stead we shall presumably have
some 1000 or more large pages
containing not only an enumera-
ton, but such an encyclopaedia
collection of facts concerning the
country as no other nation equals,
nor could one of these pages we'll
be spared. For while the registry
of births, deaths and marriages,
the enumeration of paupers and
other statistical work is not yet
done by all our states with such
accuracy as in the chief European

senator's in both parties. it is believ-
ed now that the postal bank act
will we passed This act, it will
be remembered, is championcd by
Senator Carter of Montana. He
was called to the White House
yesterday to discuss with the presi.
dent the prospect for the passage
of the postal savings bank bill.
The Senator explained the increas-
ed opposition in the Senate to this
bill and expressed the opinion that
it would be impossible to pass the
amendment proposed by Senator
Root with the purpose of making
the bill constitutional. This amend.
ment requires the investment of
the postal savings bank deposits in
government securities. Senator
Root holds that without the amend.
ment the government would be en-
gagged in banking business contrary
to the constitution. Senator Cart
er, however, is of the opinion that
all the Democrats, as we'll as all
the insurgent Republicans, will
vote against the Root amendment
and that their vote would be stuff
cient to defeat the bill. Senator
Carter was of the opinion that the
Root amendment eliminated, the
bill might be passed.
