The Federal Census Bureau, in cir
cular outlining its tentative program
me, expresses the desire and purpose to
make its publications more service
able to the American people"
This is most laudable purpose, and
the further announcement that the bu-
reau's first aim will be to get out its
reports promptly will be gladly re-
ceived. The bureau makes many val
liable compilations, Its dutses no long
err are confined to the mere enumera-
ton Of the population every ten years.
As matter of fact it has numerous lin
tercensal" lines OF work and it never
ceases its quest Of statistics. Director
Harris says that since its organization
on permanent basis in 1902 the bu-
reau has become to be beyond question
"the greatest statistical Office in the
world"
The extent Of the bureaus operations
Is indicated in summary OF some OF
the principal reports that are to be is
sued in the next three or four years.
There will be general reports on cleo
trical industries, manufactures, agri-
culture religious bodies, water trans
portation, and wealth, debt and taxa
ton. The annual report include NOR
talitu hipthg tnhapnn md Enqn-
cial statistics of cities. Among the
special reports that are to be forth
coming in future are some interesting
subjects such as 'racia population, pop
ulation OF metropolitan districts, In
dian population, negro population, the
plantation system Of the South, the
fecundity of women, general statistics
of cities, age of farmer in relation to
tenure and size OF farm, the blind and
deaf and the inmates Of institutions,
which will include prisoners and juve-
nile delinquents, paupers in almshouses
and the insane and Predetermined
In addition to this some what impos-
ing list there will be a variety of sup
Elementary occupation statistics, a sta
tistical atlas, monographs, bulletins
and other publications. Every effort,
it is stated, will be made to prevent the
work Of the bureau becoming longest
ed.
1t is desirable, of course, that staJis-
tics should be published as promptly As
possible, The longer the publication
is delayed the less valuable are the
census compilations. They have last
ing value, it is true, but their greatest
benefit lies in present rather than in
future use. In promising publication
more rapidly than heretofore Director
Harris shows that he has recognized
the bureau chief weakness and is max
ing an effort TO remedy it,

The FURRY OF the Tayeaters.

Defenders of abnormally high taxes
are Hurried. Professor Adams Of the
State Tax Commission, who asserted a
short time ago that only twenty-iour
cents OF every hundred dollars paid in
taxes goes to the support Of state com
missions, has discovered that his calcu-
lations were errOneous-that instead of
twenty -four cents he should have said
ffty-four cents. In other words, he has
raised his original amount more than n
hundred per cent. Taxpayers well
may ask whether he will stop there.
The method OF computation is likely to
be objected to by taxpayers, who will
say that the inclusion Of county and To-
cal taxation necessary TO arrive at the
Professors conclusion is wholly gratu.
itous.
What the people complain about is
the sudden and preposterous rise in
state taxation, for which they can per-
ceive no adequate benefit In fact
many OF them now are profoundly con
WINGED that some Of the things which
cause state taxes to be higher the leg
islatiye bill foundry, for instance are
positively detrimental. On the sub
Ject Of state taxation, Professor Adams
says:
The total state appropriations or bud
get for the fiscal year lgl3-lDlI, exclud.
ing bookkeeping Implications, transfers
etc, amounts TO 8lG,272, pa OF this
amount 81, l55,3l is met 10y specia lev.

remainder OF the budget, $40, llG, sOG, il
paid for by railroad and inheritance
taxes, licenses, earnings Of state de,
partments, etc lss ,Gl6, $685. and by an
undistributed state tax Of " 500, 900 for
general purposes. In other words
S. per cent OF the unspeciNed state
budget Is paid for by special state rev
enues, such as railroad taxes and earn
ings, while approximately II per cent
is paid for 10y direct tax levied upor
the people.

Mechanism Of yhs Ear.

Comparatively lew people thoroughly
.ealize what delicate and sensitive
structure the human ear really Is That
which We ordinarily designate so is,
after all. only the outer porch Of a
series Of winding passages which, like
the lobbies of a great building, lead
from the world without to the world
within. Certain of these passages con-
tain liquid, and their membranes are
stretched like parchment curtains
across the corridor of different places
and can be thrown into vibrations or
made to tremble like the head Of a
drum or as the surface of a tambOu-
rine does when struck with stick or
with the fingers. Between two or three
parchment-like curtains chain of very
small bones extends, which serves to
Tighten or relax these membranes and
to communicate vibrations to them. In
the innermost place OF all rev of
white threads, called nerves, stretches
like the strings of piano from the
last point to which the tremblings or
thrilings reach and pass inward to
the brain.

unless the inflammation can be taken out
