TIio tolal roK Ifllrution for Seattle was 25.9m, whereas the government had expect ed registration of G8,84 8, basing the estiitiuto on the census bureau figures which Kiro Seattle's populutlon as ai G.4 4 5. It is Konnrully believed that this estimate of the total population Is too IiIkIi. The total reKlstration of tho stuto, busing an estiiunte on So uttlo's returns, will go much below llio Kovornniunt estimate" of 212, OUO, and probably will not exceed 150, 000 BIG CARNIVAL DELIGHTS MANY ON OPENING DAY U wns a real carnival night, with all of its curnlvul features, noises, KuletloH, music, fun and frolic. It was a jolly night of entertainment and of moro than usually Interesting thrills nnd engrossing scenes. An unusunlly Junta crowd thronged the carnival grounds from early In the evening until tho touts wore closed. In addition to tho fait that tho 'Seventh company, C. A. C of 'Mod ford, Ih putting on tho show for the benefit of one of lis necessnry funds, tho Foley & Durk shows presented nt first an nttractlvo nppearanco, being clean and orderly In all respects. A noto of good humor nnd llght-heart-edness was predominant throughout tho cntlro ovenlng, tho oldor folks seemingly enjoying themsolvos n much as tho youngstors. All of the booths woro well pntron lzcd nnd thero are "somo" booths: Todillo bears, dolls, sofa pillows, ntut uary, kewples, nnd even darling little work baskets and ukelnlcs wore among tho prlr.es offered. Tho concessions nro all nbovo those of tho ordinary curnlvnl, from the "Llltln Wild l'eoplo" to the miniature dug and pony circus. Of unusual in terest are the little Spanish twin girls rivals of the famous Siamese twins. Tho Nowlyweds aro clevor little entertainers, as well as expert dan cersand their baby, a youngster of two and n half years, is almost a match for his tiny parents. Tho luorry-go-round nnd forrle wheel proved tho mecea of delight fbr tho young people nnd somo of the older folks, as well. Trlxle, the educated horse. Is a wondor. It. knows Its program and nsrumes poses without being prompt ed by lis trainer. A real thrill-producer Is "Ren llenn," who uppenrs on n trapese sus pended 40 feet In niltl-nlr. With only tho blue canopy above and not much sawdust below, this intrepid aerlulist creates repeated heart-throbs, not the least thrilling of which Is bis com plete summersault on the swinging trapese while seated in a chair blind folded. The carnival Is, in fact, the best that ever appeared In Medford. Its concessions aro all class A shows, each of Its Ui ml : nnd the personnel of the combined shows is mueh above tho average.

While the poor are registering Jor tiieir country 'h service to give Iheir life ll necessary, congress is placing upon them the additional burden of the cost of the war. The rich arc best able to pay for the war to which the poor give their life, hut the senate is lifting the burden from their shoulders and placing it upon the poor. The senate lias altered the house war taxation bill so that one-quarter, instead of one-half of the war's cost will be raised hy taxation; so that the profits and incomes of the rich will continue to pay for their luxuries while the pennies of the poor will fall farther short of buying ill l- n Jjcccnnn HT5. Taxes on large incomes are reduced 25 per cent by the senate and the sugar, coffee and tea used by the poor must make up the deficit. Excess profit taxes, small enough in the house bill as compared to Great Britain's levies, are cut still smaller, so that business mav swell and swell profits. Decreases in the income and profit taxes amount to one billion left in the coffers of the rich while the poor pay higher prices for food and clothing. Enormous incomes are lelt intact, bv the senate. No increase in inheritance taxes js provided. Jewelry and other luxuries are overlooked but necessities soaked. The men with the little income are not forgotten married men with $2000 and single men with $1000 must pay and they make no complaint. JJut big inheritances, and men with incomes over $100,000, and those who have made fortunes out of war munitions, raise a. howl and es cape with comparatively small assessments. President "Wilson states that this is a "war for de mocracy" but the senate is crippling democracy by con scripting life and not property, it is not the democracy practiced in France or in Britain wealth there has been conscripted along with life. It is not the democracy nec essary to win a great war. All the people must do their share. There is nothing sacred about wealth to exempt it. There is no fortune that cannot, be recreated by labor while a life destroyed, is a life gone forever. "While we are crushing autocracy, we must also smash plutocracy. Wealth must fight along with poverty. De mocracy must rule all things. I'KTIiOtiltAn, .Time (0 Minister oT War Kcrciisky lias left the cup-, ital to visit tint northwest front. An official announcement lmule prior to (he oV nurture of the socialist minister J'or Knmstmlt reads: "Tho provisional p;overnment, ree onir.in pthat the present condition of affairs iu Kronstadt is hoth men- aeinjr and intoleruhle, has requested tho socialist ministers, Tseretelli nftd Skoheleff, to visit the fortress city with the uhjeet of el earing up its at titude toward the eetnral power.
