CARNATION DAY.

Florists all over the country are
making provisions for the demand for
carnations next Saturday, Jan. 20,
"Carnation Day." the birthday ami
versary of the late President Nc
Kinley. The day was established in
1908, and on each succeeding anniver-
sary the accomplishments of the dead
president have been recalled by wear
ing his favorite flower. For any floral
decorations carnations are generally
used on that day.
The carnation league sends out
circulars each year requesting the
people to wear a carnation. In q
statement sent out the following was
contained:

Controller Prendergast made II clear yes
terday that as a member of the Board OF
Estimate he would not agree TO any delay
in the consideration by that body Of the
contracts for the triborough subway in
order that new plans might be developed
and submitted
Asked regarding the request of the Cham
Der of Commerce for such delay. in order
that It's transit committee, of which Z. H
Outerbridge is chairman. might consider
other plans for subway extension. the Con-
troller said:
II am not in favor of using city money
available for transit purposes for the con-
struction of extensions 10 the Interborough
system. in view of the fact that the Inter
borough is on record, both in statements TO
the Public Service Commission and in ad-
vertisements in the newspapers. as saying
it was ready TO build extensions with its
own money.
Regarding his position on the request for
DELAY by the Brooklyn transit conference,
the Controller said: Several days ago a
member Of this conference told me over the
telephone they had an entirely new subway
plan in course of preparation, which would
be suitable for Brooklyn and would be sat
isfactory to Manhattan and The Bronx.

Decrease of 1852 in Ten Years-May
Lose 2 CONGRESSMAN.

Washington, Nov. 5.-The popuation Of
Iowa IL 2,224,771. according to census sta
tistics made public to-day. This Is de-
crease Of ,0s2, or 0.5 per cent from 2.2Sl sSS
in 1890 The increase from 1890 TO 1900 was
3ls.572, or 16.7 per cent
The decrease is attributed by Mr.. Du-
rand to the fact that the land is fully occu-
pied and the general tendency is toward
larger farms. There has been a large emf
grafton from Iowa into other Western
states and the territories as well as into
Canada, in search of cheaper lands. If
the basis of apportionment should be
raised Iowa would probably lose one of
her eleven members of Congress.

do 1t over. The federal governments
thoroughness is well known and it. is.
the infiexible rule of the census bureau
to make no recount. Supervisor Doran
still maintains that the local enumera-
tion has been accurately made and the
authorities at Washington have salts
fed themselves that such is the case
1t Is said that should the delegation of
Garyites visit Washington they will find
that congress makes no appropriation
for recount and any offer for vol
untary payment of such recount cannot
be accepted by the government, as it
is illegal
The citizens of Gary have no inten-
tion to try and pad the population. All
they want is a fair count which they
are entitled to and every indication at
the present time points to the fact that
the census enumeraors In Gary have
been lax in their duties.

For the month of May it cost the
city of Gary the sum of s45.7T1.21 to

month the cost of municipal govern
ment was on an average of $500
or ten cents a day for every man, wom-
an and child in Gary

that If the money of the United States
was divided equally every man, wom-

amount of currency for each Carlyle

made up the salary budget. The other
ten thousand was for running expenses.
Should the socialistic argument pre-
vail and the American money in circu-
lation be distributed equally in Gary
the result would be the city would get
all of it and the contractors would get
two-thirds of what the city receives.

Therefore Gary will let the wealth
stand undivided for the only ones who
