time of the enumeration and had Id no
sense a place of abode there.
"Thus one railroad grading gang
which possibly at one time waa em
ployed In Portland but which at time
of enumeration had for some time been
lo the State of Montana, waa enumer
ated as resident of Portland. Again
a large contracting firm of employ
ment agents, through whom Japanese
are secured for the railroad and similar
work, furnished names of some 00
Japanese who were working at various
places In Oregon and Washington.
They had no usual place of abode what
ever In Portland, but In order to give
them semblance of such residence, they
were falsely assigned to various hotels
nd lodging-houses, over 10. being
'numerated aa realdenta of a certain
Japaneea church.
"Aaother enumerator admitted that a
contractor whom he met In a saloon
handed him a list of about 100 names
of his men who were working outside
, or Portland and whom he wanted
counted In Portland. The enumerator
deliberately assigned these names to
fictitious addressee In order to make
them appear aa residents. Cnder the
rulea of the census bureau with regard
to floating peculation, all such gangs
of casual workmen are properly to be
enumerated where they work." unless
they have definite homes that Is.
bouses or rooms to which they expect
t return In some other place. To be
numerated In a city when absent
tlierefrom. their names must be re
ported by their families or by the lodg.
lug-houses where they retain rooms
la no rase ran an employer be allowed
thus to list his absent employes.
"A considerable cum her of persons
were t numerated from payrolls of fac
tories and other buelnes ctttttbliahments.
Thtf waa particularly the caae In one
enumeration d!e-iet. wher the enumera
tor listed over II0O persons aa resident at
such buatnesa eab!!shmente.
"Among ti e placee of aboue" listed by
this enumerator were the biasiness places
of I lie t'ntted States' Laundry. Troy I
i -a u n.j r . .eustadter Bros., a garment
factory empklng about SCO people; I'nlon
oil Company and Standard Oil Company.
This practice, of course. Involves dupli
cation, as such employee are listed also
from tl.elr homes.

Carelessly written pencil marks on a

et of James Franklin, arrested as a
common vagrant, solved the mys
tery surrounding the robbery of the
Tourist Hotel bar In Seattle. Septem
ber 21. Franklin has confessed that
he Is tne man w to rifled the pockets
of three customers of the saloon, and
that two men held In Jail In Portland
for a similar crime are his accomplices.
To Captain of Detectives Tennant.
belongs the credit for unraveling the
robbery, for after studying the marks
for hours he came to the conclusion
that they formed the diagram of the
Tourist Bar. He subjected Franklin
to a severe grilling, when tne prisoner
confessed. Implicating three other men
all foreigners, two of whom are In the
Portland Jail.
In his confession. Franklin said tha
his three, pals were armed with big
revolvers and stood at all the exits
ready to fire In case the victims offered
resistance, while he was relieving them
of their valuables. The un.irtet got
170. but overlooked almost $200 In the
safe.
"You've got me and I am ready to
give all the help I ran to turn up the
other fellows.- Franklin aald.
DOCKS AND HOTELS COUNT
(Continued From Pace
Is one-story frame shack about 10 by
IS feet In size, and could scarcely ac
commodate 21 persons standing.
50 Reported In Small House.
"From 121 Eighth avenue South, I
small two-story and half dwelling, euu
merator reported 60 persons. The re
count showed !2 persons whose names
were Identical with first 12 appearing;
on the original enumeration and it waa
found without guest Inn that the ad.ll
tlonal names were falsely assigned to
this address. A number of other In
dividual rases Investigated showed sim
ilar conditions. The enumeration of
District CO Is somewhat similar In Its
characteristics to District (2. its In
habitants being largely of a very low
class. Owing to doubt aa to the cor
rectness of the original enumerations
a new enumeration was undertaken but
the results showed that original enum
erator had done most of hla work with
grew! rare. He admitted on examina
tion that after properly enumerating;
the district he revisited many of the
houses In which there had been chang
es In the population and counted those
who had come Into the district and
consequently these additional names
were cut out and the major part of
original enumeration allowed to stand,
the names being reduced from 4129 to
3317.
Reports Are Detailed.
'It is unnecessary to present In de
tail the evidence of the necessity of
eliminating names which were elimi
nated In other districts. The work waa
done with great care by an expert
special agent of the Census Mureau.
whose Instructions were to be as lib
eral as possible In retaining names on
he schedules. His reports cover each
ndlvldual rase In detail, so that the
experts In the Census Bureau were
able to confirm his Judgment as to
eliminations."
Iteferrlng to tlie Seattle count, the
director sa s :
"The original returns of the enum
erators from Seattle contained Z4S.2S2
names, or 1 1. 1 AH more than the final
figures. This difference represents
the names eliminated from various ds.
trtcts as not entitled to enumeration.
Corrections were made In the enum
eration of !. districts out of a total of
ITS m the city. A considerable number of
other districts In which the original re
turns Indicated possibility of Incorrect
enumeration were carefully Investigated
and found to be substantially eurreci."

How to Get Rid
of Catarrh
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way, and It
Coats Nothing to Try.
Those who suffer from catarrh kiusr
Its -miseries. There Is no need of this
suffering. You can gel rid of it by a
simple, safe. Inexpensive, home treat
ment discovered by Dr. Bloscer. who.
for over 38 years, has been treating
catarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other.
It Is not a spray, douche, salve, cro.m.
or Inhaler, but is a more direct and
thorough treatment than any of these.
It cleans out the head. nose, throat and
lungs so that you can again braathe
freely and aleep without that stoppr I
up feeling that all catarrh sufferers
have. It heals the- diseased mucous
membranes and arrests the foul dis
charge, so that you will not be con
stantly blowing your nose and s. Ittli.g,
and at the same time It does not poison
the system and ruin tha stomach, as In
ternal medicines do.
If you want to test thit treatment
without cost, send your address to Dr.
J. W. Blosser. 874 Walton street. At
lanta. Ga.. and he will send you hy re-
urn mail enough of the medicine to sat
isfy you thst It Is all he claims for It
as a remedy for catarrh, ca.arrbal
headaches, catarrhal deafness, asthma.
bronchitis, colds and all catarrhal com
plications. He will also send you free
an Illustrated booklet. Write him Immediately.
