Census Figures Do Not
Affect Tax Valuation

'That the facts and figures gathered
by the enumerators, supervisors and
special agents Of the Fourteenth De-
cennial Census will have absolutely
nothing to do with valuation of proper
t.. for taxation purposes. is a point I
desire to emphasize with all possible
yigor,'' said Director Of the Census,
Sam Z. Rogers, in speaking Of the forth
coming 1920 enumeration.
"Some difficulty has been experienced
in the past,' continued Mr.. Rogers, Tin
getting absolutely accurate values Of
land and other property because Of a
certain amount Of confusion over this
point. Many people were enormously
inclined to connect the Census with
taxation. We hope to avoid any such
confusion this time
The act of Congress which, under the
Constitution, provides for the taking of
the Fourteenth Decennial Census makes
it unlawful for any enumeration, special
agent, supervisor or other employee Of
the Census Bureau to diyulge any In
formation whatsoever concerning the
census returns. A heavy fine and pos
sible imprisonment, or both. is the pen
atty prescribed for violation of this
provision Of the law.
The proper tabulated figures OF the
Census are given out nowhere but here
in Washington and then only upon the
express authority of the Director Of
the Census Bureau
7 Actual work by the enumerators in
the various census districts will begin
on January 2, 1920. 1t is expected that
the population statistics of all cities
and towns will be gathered in approx
mately: two. weeks. Final figures for
rural districts, however, can hardly be
gathered in less than a month.

LITTLE Il BOY
IS DR0W Il
Edward, the -Four Year Old Son q
MIR. and Mrs. Elias Hjelle, Loses
Life In Snake River.

Our small and inOffensive looking
Snake river has claimed the life. Of an
other victim, the second one this year.
This time it is the four year old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Elias Hjelle, who has
found watery grave in its waters.
Edward was the little boys name, and
he was playing with another little boy
outside Of the home on Monday fore
noon. Their childish fancy led them
to the river nearby, where there was
open water and the bank very steep.
Edward in some manner slid or fell
into the water His little playmate
ran to the Goranson home close by and
told Of what had happened. Many peo-
pie then hurried to the river to rescue
the boy, whose body had disappeared
from view in the icy water. Presently
it rose to the surface on the other side
of the stream and was pulled out, but
all efforts to resuscitate him proved
fruitless The innocent soul Of the
little boy had made its departure. The
accident happened at about II 80
o'clock.
The loss Of their bright little boy in
this sad manner is a severe blow to the
parents and the neighbors and in fact
all the people of the city sympathize
with them in the affliction. Edward
lacked only q month in being four years
old. He is mourned by his parents, also
by three brothers and sister, whose
names are Clarence, Jennie, Bertil and
Ralph. The funeral was conducted by
Rev. Z. Winberg from the home at two
o'clock this afternoon.
