figures are available. the average
increase between 1900 and ~ was
2s.4 per cent and between 1910 and
1920 was 2l.s per cent. The di-
rector of the census attributes the
lower rate Of increases mainly to the
fact that Europeans landed at Ellis
Island between 1914 and 1918 in
vastly reduced numbers. The cpl

their votes ava. 1t will apparently
be their policy to support the Sem
ator in the primaries. and take their
chances upon influencing his dele
gates when the hopelessress of his
own candidacy shall have become
evident to the convention.
Women's Vote Jeopardired.
Ohio women, whose vote might
have been decisive. are almost GER
tain to be deprived OF their vote
in the primaries. The referendum
petition to which / referred in nv
last dispatch, has already received
more than $4,000 signatures, and
newspapers friendly to woman
suffrage now Concede that it will
set the statutory number of sign
ers in time to prevent the partici-
patton of women in the primaries
and in the Presidential election
as well If the Federal amendment
be not ratified by that time.
Tho signatures were obtained
only by the alliance of the anti
sufSagists with the wcts-a fact
which is not without political sig
nificance. AS there is a general
feeling that a complete understand
ing exists between Governor Cox

invade no other States. but that his
supporters will make an active cam
paign among uninstructed delegates
as fast as chosen. Already some
sentiment for him is apparent in
Indiana and Kentucky. In many
ways he would be the ideal politi-
clans candidate. which is some
thing quite different from being a
strong candidate.
Old System Doomed.
For it is increasingly evident that
in the conventions this year there is
to be a demand that the people.
rather than the politicians, shall do
of a nomination forced by half a
dozen men in a back room will not
be tolerated. The Democratic con-
vention. with three weeks for de-
liberation after the action of its RI
val, will serve as an excellent cor
rective of any tendency on the part
of the latter to ignore popular sem
timent.
If anything has been demon
strated by the primaries thus far
held il is that the voters are in
tolerant of machine rule. and II
happens that the States in which
this has been shown are those
which have long submitted with
the utmost docility to precisely
that kind of government.

to worry the wealthy young prisoner
considerably.
1t is his Office safe, and has the name

on its door. In it are books and docu-
ments bearing on his case and those of
his brother, Elliot Atwater, and his
partner, Gilbert Footc, who soon are to
be brought to trial. District Attorney
K. A. Aldrich, of Duchess County, who
had the safe installed in the Jail, saw
to it, that the combination was changed,
so that the prisoner merely may imag-
inc it's contents.
One of tho convictions against At

is serving ten months still stands. He
does not have to engage in prison labor
nor eat prison food and is said to spend
most OF his time staring at the locked
door of his safe, which is in the
Sherif's Office. The Sheriff is the nomi-
nal custodian or the papers the safe
contains
