CANADA's CENSUS
4 THiRTY-TWo PER CENT IN
CREASE IN THE PAST TEN
YEARS.

That Canada has come rapidly to
the front in the past ten years is am
ply shown in the results of the census
recently made public. The population
OF the Dominion is now placed at
7,OS1,S69, which with outlying points
to be heard from. may bring 1t up to
IN millions as compared with 6,371,-
Bis in 1901. Though these figures are
large, they do not present total as
large as was expected but they do
show greater increase of percentage
In population for the decade than any
similar increase in the United States.
The highest percentage ever reached
by the Republic was 2495; the per-
centage Of increase in Canada for the
decade is 1870. Thus 1t will be seen
that the provinces west of the lakes.
with the great broad fertile acres
ready for the sowing and immediate
reaping Of grain and the Valleys Of
British Columbia capable OF producing
fruit with which to supply its neigh
boring provinces east of the noun
tains, have attracted numbers, which
has exceeded the most optimistic Of
the expectations Of ten years ago.
Upon the prairies of the ten years
ago there was but a spare scattering
of people; but today, no matter In
which way you go, take any direction,
and you find homes and farms and
good ones too, occupied by the very
best class Of people In good sized set
Elements with plenty of room for 1--WE
or six times as many more. The pop
ulation of Alberta is set down at 372.-
919, Us compared with 73,022 In 1901;
Saskatchewan 453.50s as compared
with 1870 in 1901; Manitoba's 454.-
691 compares well with its 255,211 In
1901; and SO does that of British Co
lumbia--362,76 as against 17S,657 In
1901; but In a territory as large as
this population of 1.643.O00 is little
more than discernible In point of num-
bers. The work through 1t has been
great. Look at the towns that have
been built up; its cities, Winnipeg
with 10000; Vancouver with upwards
of 100000; Calgary with $4,000; Ed
monitor, Regina, Saskatoon; Leth-
bridge; Medicine Hat, Moosejaw.
splendid cities-none better any
where; well maintained and equipped.
These have come with existence and
been built as they have been built by
reason of the splendid agricultural
country by which they are surround
ed. The population is scarcely dis
cernible. A population ten or twelve
times that shown by the recent
census could be easily maintained In
even greater wealth than that which
maintains the present numbers. There
Is certainly a wonderful future for
Western Canada and that which goes
to the development of the west will
enrich the last. This is the growing
time in Canada and what has been
done In the past ten years is but
beginning. The next decade will
show far greater advancement. In
the meantime Canada is bidding well
come the progressive and industrious
citizen. The invitation is standing

of the best exhibits of farm products
that has ever been made and 1t will
be well worth while inspecting II and
getting information from those who
may be In charge.

Thirty Prisoners Released.

Thirty prisoners. all suffering pun

prison population of the state in in

OF the board.
although we have paroled thirty
on the first day of our meeting and
have many more to whom paroles
will be voted, the prison population
at Anamosa and Fort Madison is
steadily increasing" said Senator
Berry of the board. Zone of the
causes, ! presume. is found in the
fact that the courts have begun their
winter grind following the vacation
period, and naturally many cases
which were pending during the sum
mer are being determined and SEN

The American Patriots Insurance
company of Springfield, H., viii
bring suit against State Auditor
Bleakly, in his official capacity, to
compel hmN to give the company the
right to sell insurance in Iowa.
The company at one time did bust
hess in this state. but was dropped
from the list Of eligible companies
last April. The concern has a large
number of policynolders in Iowa
The suit will be brought notwith-
standing the fact that Judge De Graf
has ruled that the state auditor
could not be compelled. by manda-
mus suit. to permit the writing of
certain kinds of automobile insur-
ance in Iowa in contravention of the
state laws. The question raised by
the suit OF the American Patriots
company is very similar to that in
the auto case, except that in this
case no law Is involved, 1t Is simply
a question Of whether the courts will
dictate the discretion to be used by
a state official In the performance
of his duties.

LIabIIIty Board h ouandary.

The temporary state liability CON-
mission finds itself confronted with
the proposition of being unable to en-
force its requests for information or
to secure answers to its blanks sent
out to manufacturers. AS result of
the failure or refusal Of manufacture
ers and others to supply the informa-
ton which the commission desires in
framing its report to the governor,
the work Of the comm 'ssion is great
ly embarrassed.
The commission has absolutely no
power to enforce its calls for informa-
ton. Members OF the commission
have attended conferences of state
and federal commissioners and find
that states which have commissions
OF this character are as much in the
dark as is Iowa.
One thing which, they believe will
happen in the conflict between state
commissions and the federal commits
sion is that the precedent set in the
original package liquor cases of the
United States supreme court. will be
followed to make the line OF demarca-
ton between the authority of the
state commission and that of the fed
eral commission in the states.

State Fire Marshal Roe is greatly

from playing with matches. Reports
from all sections of the state indi-
cate that the day was very generally
observed and that there was much
cleaning up of combustible matter
about homes and shops.
