SWEDEN APPEARS FEvERIsF
By Hobart Corey

PARIS, Oct. 30-Russia is ex- ercising one of her "soverign rights in the Baltic. She is fortifying thr island of Aaaland, within thirty miles of the Swedish coast and nt the mouth of the Cuffs of Botl'nN and Finland. Sweden is protcs'- ing. Germany would protest if there were any probability that pro test would be needed under presen conditions. England and Fr7nce battered down the Russian fort or the island of Aaland in 1854, but they now concede that their ally has perfect right to do as she pleases-
 It means war some time" said an acute observer of Swedish birth Perhaps Sweden will not join hands with Germany just now. But the time will come when Sweden and Germany will force Russia to dismantle those forts or fight, pro- vided that Germany is in position to make threats when this war ends."
 The English and French papers have paid some apparently slight but really thoughtful attention to the situation, while the Swedish papers that have reached this city seem to be full of it. M. Hjalmor Granting, an eminent parliamen- tartan, is quoted as saying in an interview that Sweden is very fun easy"
 "We do not know exactly what has happened,' Said he. 'tAaland is most important. Permanent forti- l fications whether laid by Russians or Germans cannot be accepted and Sweden will demand most energet- ically that the islands remain un- | fortified.
 Germany is in no position to for tify anything just now. The Swed- ish protest must therefore be di- rected to Russia. No protest a. mounts to anything nowadays un- less backed by force. It is highly improbable that Sweden will void her neutrality now, however, to join with Germany.

MOVED AND SECONDED
Saturday Evening Post

 Paul Ar'ngstrong says a lawyer acquaintance of his, who lives in Seattle, was retained to defend a darky accused of absconding with the funds of a colored debating society. The outlook for the de- fendant was rather black.
 At the trial the attorney for the defense arose, as soon as the charge had been read, and said:
 "Your Honor,I move that this in dictment be dismissed-"
 Before he could proceed further his client was on his feet, too, ad- dressing the Bench without a trace of embarrassment.
 "Your Honah," said the defend ant briskly, T seconds dat motion" !"

CENSUS OF MANUFACTURERS
 IN NEW ENGLAND.
Seventy-Fire Special Agents at Work In Connecticut and Rhode Island.


 The census bureau understands that work is proceeding satisfactorily up on the census of manufacturers in New England. says Washington re- port. About seyenty-hve special agents it is said, ara employed on this work in Connecticut and Rhode Island, l alone, at compensation ranging from $3 to S4.50 per day, according to the number of schedules they turn in. These agents are appointed without 8 competitive civil service examination although technically, they are called upon to answer a few questions and to fill out a sample schedule. The understanding is that many of them are patronage appointments made through democratic congressman or other politicians.
 In several of the New England states the census of manufacturers which the law requires shall be taken every five years, is being taken under cooperative agreement with statei officials engaged on census work. In Countryman, formerly of Hartford, is supervising the census of manufact- ureS for the census bureau here. His headquarters are at Providence. An effort will be made to avoid dupli- cation of work by the federal and state census people. To that end negoti- ations are in progress between cen sus bureau and Colonel Webb, chief of the state census force.
 The Connecticut state census bureau it is announced, will accept the fed eral census of manufactures this year Charles R. Leroy and $. F. Peavey have been designated by the census bureau Washington as supervising agerts in charge of federal census of nEsnufacturers, with headquarters at hartford and New Haven, respective ly.
 It is hoped to have the manufact- ures census completed by July l. Publication of the results will take ures collected are for the calendar year 1914 Or for a fiscal or business year as near to that as may be The work in New England is of great importance, owing to the enormous amount of manufacturing that goes on there.
 The census bureau has sent to every manufacturer whose name is on the government list blank forms of sched- ule to be filled out by the manufact- urer. This is to be followed up by a personal visit by a special agent to check up the results and in many cases to have filled out special sup plemental schedules which are ap- plicable only to particular industries. schedules. Many of these are being used in the census of manufactures in New England.
 Among them are schedules relating particularly to automobiles, boots, and shoes, brass, bronze and copper, but tons. textile manufactures, engines. ex- plosives, gas, knit goods, ice, lace, cot ton, flax, hemp and jute manufactures, machinery, motorcycles, bicycles and aeroplanes, needles, pins, hooks and eyes. paper and pulp rubber goods printing and publishing, slaughtering, and meat packing, wool manufactures. etc.
