a great deal like it. and we would not
be much surprised If it were found to
he true.
In many large cities. the city places
huge waste baskets at the street cor
ners in the business section, and
empdes them daily. carting the refuse
to fat cars. whence they are sent on
their way to the paper mill. These
waste baskets not only receive the
paper from the stores, but bits of pa
per blowing about the streets. papers
left in street cars, ETC., are placed IN
them and removed at the expense of
the city.
This latest move of the city admin

getting revenge upon the merchants,
because they refused to vote TO extend

THE CENsUs FIGURES.

1t is a source of considerable pleas
ure to have the public learn what this
paper has known all the time-that
the census figures this paper published
on June 4, 1910, were correct. On that
date The Republican published
the fact that the census count showed
the population of Salt Lake to be s1.-
6S1. At that time it had not been de-
cided whether to include Fort Douglas
in Salt Lake-City. That has since been
done, corrections have been made in
the list, and the actual count. accord
ing to the announcement from Wash
ingtOn, is 92,777. Our figures were
1896 below those given out on Mon
day at Washington. The Fort Douglas
figures account for 1000. and the other
ninety-six are additions made after the
publication in The HeraId-Republican.
as the report was not sent to Washing
ton for week after we published the
figures.
The neutrality-suspicious. regarded its
achievement in publishing the census
figures much as a matter of course.
This paper always publishes the news.
and publishes it first. 1t heard casual
~ on the street in June that the census
figures were about ready to send to
Washington. If that were true, 1t was
obvious that the count was practically
completed, and that it would be mat
ter of news to get it and print it. The
Herald-Republican went after it in the
usual way. got the figures and printed
them That was all there was to it.
The opposition press almost had a fit.
They had never heard of anything of
the kind.
1t wasn't much of a sensation in The
Herald-Republican Office. The en-
ployes Of this paper are on The Her
ald-Republican payroll because they
are the most efficient in the west. They
are the best men of their calling, and
it does not surprise them when they
get the news. That is their business.
The increase in the population OF
salt Lake in ten years is shown to be

crease in five years had been 81 per
cent which was fair enough. we think.
in view of the situation as it is shown
to be. 1t is a gratifying Increase. and
one of which every citizen OF the city
should be proud. 1t shows that Salt
Lake is in the vanguard of progress.

TIE STATE MILITIA.

Colonel E. NJ. Weaver, chief OF the
division of militia TO the chief of staff
of the United States army, takes a very
gloomy view Of the situation as regards
the militia OF the various states. Col
oneI Weaver finds that the labor unions
OF the country are so hostile to the ma
tionaI guard Of the various states that
their men Will not enlist. II is sug-
gested that a state constabulary be
formed In the various states to tend 10
law enforcement in case Of strikes,
riots and the like. and the regular mi
litia be reserved altogether for ma
tional defense. He believes that this
would remove the objection Of the
labor unions.
The state Of Pennsylvania seems 10
have solved the problem in its state
constabulary. There are not a great
many OF them, but they work effective
ly, All trained men. mounted on good
horses. many of them former members
OF the Roosevelt rough riders. they
police the state of Pennsylvania thor
oughly. They work with the precision
of regular soldiers, and know nothing
but their orders. as their positions do
not depend upon political preferment.
Even in politics-ridden Pennsylvania,
the selection Of the members Of the
state constabulary is made without
reference TO their political opinions.
The headquarters OF the Pennsylva-
MIA consta bulary is as near TO the cen
ter OF the state as possible. They can
be moved rapidly from point to point
by rail, and can be modified at days
notice. Their troop commanders have
the right to stop any train anywhere
in the state and demand transporta-
ton anywhere they like. The power of
the state is behind them. They have
been found mos. effective in dealing
with the foreign element I'm Pennsyl-
vania- which has no respect for any
thing that is not ready to shoot upon
command Few of the troopers are
residents Of Pennsylvania. and no SYM
pathy for their opponents is permitted
TO stand in the way Of their doing their
duty.
Colonel Weaver finds that conditions
in the national guard are not as they
ought to be. He does not specify any
particular state. so we cannot tell here
in Utah whether he approves OF the
Utah national guard. But whether he
does or doesn't, this state is proud Of

The Salt Lake citizen has TO hustle

Negro Exposition.

The defeat of the negro exposi-
ton resolution in the House of Repre-
sentatives, because of its failure to
receive two-thirds vote for calling it
up under a suspension of rules, has not
discouraged Congressman Rodenberg
in the least Mr. Rodenberg, who is
chairman of the House Committee on
Industrial Arts and Expositions, said
that the votes in opposition to the
resolution came entirely from the
Democratic side of the House, and
that the race has no particular reason
to feel discouraged. He also stated
that it is his purpose to bring out a
bill at the December session of Con
gress providing for holding the expo
sition, and securing consideration on
Calendar Wednesday, when only a
majority vote will be necessary to pass
it. He believed it would be an easy
matter TO get this majority in a Re
publican Congress.

BREAKS THRU THIN ICE.
Dubuque Teamster Has Narrow Escape
and Loses Horse,

ana Loses F1CFSe.
Dubuque, Jan. 1S.--The first serious
accident OF the season in connection
with the annual ice harvest took place
near the high bridge, when Joe Meyers
had q narrow escape from drowning
which fate was met by one of the ami
mails he was driving.
The accident happened when Meyers
drove the team out onto a thin sheet OF
ice which had formed over a space
where ice had been cut away a few
days ago, but which, to all appearances
was a solid surface.
The cries of the driver as he was pre-
cipitated into the chill waters attracted
the attention of fellow workmen to his
plight.
Meyers was eNtricated With little
trouble, and fierce struggle was then
put up to save the team. They finally
succeeded in landing one of the horses
on strong ice again. but the other sank
from view and was lost.

Northwestern Opens Blockade.

Clinton Jan. 1s-,A marked falling
off in eastern freight receipts, and the
continuation of the warmer weather

There are still a number of passing
tracks between Chicago and Clinton
which are blockaded with cars, but
the proportion of effective engines to
the number of cars to be moved is
now larger than it has been for weeks.
The eastward movements of live

We're such that it could be handled

rived yesterday for Clinton dealers, and
the coal situation is therefore less acute
locally. except in the matter of hard
coal. The supply of this grade is likely
to be short during the remainder of the
winter, owing to the condition of the
supply in the east.

FROST is NOT DEEP.

Fort Dodge. Jan. 1S.--According to
farmers and others who have made OBJ

the January thaw continue and the
greater part of the snow on the ground
be melted it would be quickly absorbed.
The first heavy snow of the winter
fell on Nov. %, and at that time there
was practically no frost in the ground
and as there has been good mantle
over the face of the earth since that
time. there has been little opportunity
for the prost to penetrate. In the fields
the farmers declare the frost has sunk
only TO a depth of from six to eight
inches, while in the woods where there
was a good coating of leaves, there is
absolutely no frost in the ground.
