IOWA POPULATION TO
SHOW FIVE PER CENT GAIN

Des Moines, la June 23.--Iowa's
population will show an increase of at
least per cent over the government
returns of 1910. when the compilation
of reports from over the state is COM
pleted. according to an estimate made
by Census Director A. w. Swan.
The rural districts haye stood prac-
tically still in the matter OF population
in the last five years, leaving the cities
responsible for whatever increase the
final figures may disclose. A number
of the larger cities have shown
marked increase. including Des Moines.
Sioux City. Davenport, Waterloo. Cedar
Rapids, Dubuque and Mason City.
Returns from the various sections
are yet in incomplete form and the
estimate made by the director is based
on comparisons made in few coun-
ties. These are sufficiently represen-
tative. however. to make the estimate
seem fairly accurate. 1t will probably
be months before the statistics are
ready for the printer. with all the data
there is to work into shape for the re-
port. All of the reports are yet to be
checked. also. with thousands of errors

TRANSPORTATION OF BOYS
CAUSE OF MANDAMtIS SUIT

Lincoln, Neb.. June 23.-The state
board of control is to be made the de-
PENDANT In mandamus suit brought by
Lancaster country. In reality, how
ever, other counties in the state are in
terested. In the various county jails
of the state, boys sentenced to the state
reform school are accommodating. The
state board declines to pay the sheriff
for taking them to the reform school on
the ground that the last legislature, in
Its desire to make record for econ
omy, neglected to appropriate any
money for taking the boys thither.
The sheriffs are not objecting very
hard, as they receive SO cents for each
day he remains in the Jail for his
board, but the county commissioners
are objecting to the expense being
saddled upon the county while the boys
are compelled to consort with adult
male criminals. The Kearney school
has cash fund. derived from the sale
of products raised on the farm, and it
is commended this could be used to pay
the travelling expenses. The sheriffs
decline to work ION tick" as they must
carry the account until the next legis-
lature meets. If the mandamus suit
fails the commissioners say they will
order the boys released.
