POPULATION
WILL EXCEED $4,000
School Census Indicates This
500 More Families in the
City Than a Year Ago

That there are fully 500 more fami-
lies in Salem now than there was one
year ago is the opinion of Amos w.
Long, who is engaged in taking hte
school census, ana that the schoo
population has materially increased
over last year he is firmly convinced.
This would indicate a total population
of between $4,000 and 10000 Also
that the numerical population of the
city should be taken every year in con
nection with the scnool census work,
either by authority Of the city council
or the commercial club ne thinks would
be a good thing and it could be done
very cheaply and thoroughly at cost
of not to exceed about $50. Mr.. Long
has been engaged in taking the school
census for the past two weeks and
thinks he will complete the work about
a week from next Saturday
cit would be a comparatively easy
matter to take the numerical census of
tne city every year in connection with
the school census, said Mr. Long, in
discussing the matter yesterday. An
appropriation of about $50 either by
the city council or the commercial club
would be sufficient to pay the school
census enumerator to take down the
number of inhabitants in each house,
without going into individual details,
while ne is making the house to hose
canvass and in this manner the popua-
ton of the city could be determined
accurately every year at the minimum
of expense,

81 would not advise that a premium
be offered for securing any number of
people over and above the population
taken at the last census or a certain
| figure to be set by the council or club,
authorizing the census, as il would
have tendency to tempt the enumer-
ator to pad his figures and render the
results of the census void. 1t would
ben an easy matter, however, for the
school census enumerator to make an
honest canvass of the city's popula-
ton by asking the number Of inhabi.
tantsof each mouse visited and this, in
my estimation, should be done in

Mr. Long says that he encounters an
average of from eight to 10 new
families every day of his work and he
feels that the total win easily come up
to 800 before he finishes. The mum,
Der Of vacant houses in the city is also
noticeably fewer this year than last
The school population for last yeal
was between 1900 and 10000 and Mr.
Long has fixed 5000 as his mark so far
this year. Already he has enumerated
Approximately 1000 persons of schoo
age in the city and he has yet the most

That will indicate total population OF
the city Of between $4,000 aud 10000
people.

"We do the dirty work,
Ten, twent' and thirty work,
We create the hero by
The dirty work we To-"

Thus sings George NJ. Cohan in his
"Villain's Song" and he sings truly.
No play is a play unless it has a good
villain. Without the villain there
would be no hero, no heroine-in fact,
no play at all. The scoundrel is the
backbone of the pot. He carries the
story of the play upon his wicked shoul-
ders, and when he is killed, or sent to
Jail, or eliminated in some other more
or less drastic fashion by the hero the
play usually ends.
Now Captain Hodgman in ""Arizo-
ma, the famous play which the Moose
will produce here with an all-star cast
of local talent next Monday and Tues
day, is a regular villain. He is about
as mean cuss as ever made weeping
heroine sign the papers or drink the ink.
That doesn t mean that he is melodra-
matte. He is a perfectly logical villain,
He can't help being a scoundrel any
more that the hero can help being a
hero. He was boru that way--iust nat
