Postmaster Genoral Burleson is proparing to insti tute a rigid investigation of tho state ments of circulation filed in the postof flco dopartmont by the nowspapers of tho country under tho law roquirlng such statement twico a year. The department hold3 that circula tion as defined by the law means tho net paid circulation of tho newspapors.

Tho piano of the department are be- ing supported by the leading newspa pers of tho country on tho ground that the law will bo valueless unless tho ut most exactness in circulation statements 1b enforcod.

BHADISON, Wis., Oct. 4. Of tho hundreds of death certificates handled annually by the state board of health in making its classification od! dis eases, many contain interesting re marks as to the cause af doath. TheBe doath certificates generally aro filled out by a local physician and mailed to tho board. Somo of tho "cnusos" as I found in the reports of Chief Statisti cian L. Wl Hutchcrof t, follow: A mothor, "diod in infancy." "Went to bed fooling well, but woke up dead." "Diod suddenly at tbo ago of 103. To this tlmo he bid fair to roach a ripe old ago." "Do not know cause of death, but patient fully recovered from last; ill ncBS. ' ' "Docoased had novor boon fatally sick." "Died a moro child" (an infant of ono-half yoar). "Last illness caused by chromo rheumatism, but was cured before death." "Died suddenly; nothing serious." "Pulmonary hemorrhage -suddon doath." (Duration four years.) "Kick Dy horao shod on left kid ney." "Docoosod dlod from blood poison causod by broken- ankle, which is re markable, as the automobilo struck him between tho lamp and tho radia tor." .

DAILY NEWSPAPER ALSO TALKED OF Fifty Men Are Designated to Consider Question of Im mediate Establishment of Party Organ. Eighteon prominent Utah Democrats will try to roconcilo tho differences botweon tho National Committeeman W. B. Wallaco and the members of tho Democratic stato committeo, with spe cial reference to agreeing on a candi date for United Stales marshal. They were selected yesterday at a meeting of tho Democratic slate committee, and they will meet at 10 o'clock this morn ing to dclibcrato on tbo issue. They will report at 8 o'clock tonight at an adjourned mooting of tbo stato com mittee. Just how the harmony committee of eightoeu will arrive at a decision was not made clour in tho plan by which they- woro appointed. One suggestion that has been made is that tho com mitteo divido into two teams of nino on a sido, and let one side rcprcsont tho state committoo and tho other tho national committeeman, and play ball to decido tho question. If the scorer doesn't get rattled wo may tbon know who is to succeed James H. Anderson as United States marshal. Tho question of getting togothor with tho national committeeman on candi dutos for federal office was not on tho scheduled business of tbc stato com mitteo for its mooting yesterday. How ovor, thoro were divers rumors as to things that might happen, aud no one was surprised when tho marshalship oontest wont bctforo tho committoo un dor tho general miBnomcr of "har mony." Trouble Averted. Soveral times during tho meeting yes terday afternoon thero appeared to bo dangor of something breaking, but trou ble was avortod by James II, Moylc, who took the "Wallacc-Thurmau prizo as tho beat little peace-maker of the meet ing. At his suggestion a harmony com mitteo of seven was named to which was added tho national committeeman and tbo state chairman. This commit too met aud modestly decided that it was not wholly competent to promote harmony. At tbo evening session of the stato committeo tho sub-committeo on harmony asked to bo cnlraged by the appointment of seven members of tbo stato committee tho original commit too having boen composed largely of Democrats not members of the state committeo. !First, however, the stato committee enlarged tho original committeo by add ing tho namoa of J. P. Tolton, candi date for governor a yoar ago, and Till man D. Johnson, candidate for congress. Then seven members of the stato com mittoo woro added. As it now 6tands tbo harmony com mittee iB composed of National Commit teeman W. B. Wallace, Stato Chairman S. B. Thurmau, J. P. Tolton, of Beaver, Mathouibab Thomas of Salt Lake, Till man D. Johnson of Ogden, James II. Moylo, John Dern, of Salt Lake, Jesse Knight, of Provo, .1. It. Letcher, of Salt Lake, W. II. King, of Salt Lake, D. 8. Cook, of Ogdcn, VilHum Edwards, of Logan, E. V, Brown, of St. Georjio, II. N. Hayes, of Richfield, Hcbcr O. Meoks, of Kannb, J. L. Boydcn, of Coalville, 9. S. Smith, of Ogdcn, and B W. King of Fillmore. Will Meet Today. This committee will spend tho Sab bath In dIacii3slii-- harmony, at the ofilcc of Judgo S. R. Thuniinn in the Walkor Dunk bulIdlnK- The action of the com mittee under tho Moylu rwolutlon Is not to bo considered final until ratillcd by tho ttato committeo nt Its meeting this ovonlner at tho Woodmen hull. Tho reso lution under which the committeo la act ing moroly empowers It to devise a plan to adjust dirfuxonces. "If any thero he," between thu stnte committeo und the na tional committeeman. Tho chiof difference to be adjusted 13 in tho appointment of a Unitod States murahnl for Utah. The stato committee rocommended A nulla Nobekor for tho place, but National Committeeman Wal laco dlsarood und recommended the ap polntmont of Georgo A. StorrH. As n re sult, thoro has been a deadlock since last eprlnff. If tho subcommittee can agreo, it Ib likely that It will make a slate of candi dates for tho various federal offlcoa and aHk that tho national committeeman and the stato committee agree on theso rec ommendations in order that the appoint ments may bo speedily made.
