I POPULATION OF OGDEN.
j Mayor Francis says the census will
; j give Ogden a population of 32,700. The
i j figure is not as large as some of us
j j expected. Still a healthy growth is
j displayed. The 1910 census gave Og
3 den's population as 25,580. If Ihe
i mayor's figures are correct Ogden
has gained 7,120 persons in 10 years,
the gain being nearly 2S per cent.
The first official figures to he given
J out by the census bureau at Washing
ton' gave Cincinnati's population as
J01.15S, an Increase of 37,567, or 10.3
per cent over the 1910 figures'.
Washington's population is given as
' 437,414. a gain of 10G.345, or 32.1 per
i, cent over the previous census,
j Incidentally the time taken by the
j census bureau to begin giving out
I reports on population discloses that
j tho ten years elapsing since the last
census has seen improvements in the
processes of enumeration.
', Ten years ago the first announce
j ment came 60 days after enumeration
i I was begun. This year the first an
j nouncement came 51 days after enum
j d "oration was begunl
i , In connection with Ogden's popula
tion, the mayor points out that the
communities immediately adjoining
I'he city limits contain Inhabitants en
j cugh to bring Ogden's population to
j 40,000. These communities really be-
.long In Ogden and it will not be long
) ( before the limits will be extended to
' Include them.

ill; ANOTHER VIEWPOINT.
I; 4 The New York World has been ivig
lJ rous In its denunciation of the action
iji of the New York legislature whereby
j five Socialist assemblymen were un
I, seated. The World, Charles E.I
I! fugues and many others have pro
Mi nounced the ousting of the Socialists
j' s( blow at representative government.
Jj They point out that law and order
J forces have been appealing for Hip
If use of the ballot instead of destruc
j Hon to bring about political changes,
j Tner declare It is illogical, then, to
deprive regularly elected representa
J lives of a certain group the right to
jj represent that group,
il One of the ousted Socialists Is only
?8 years of age. The World draws a
jj lesson from his accomplishments in
;J he following editorial:
i I "Out of weeks of lime-wasting In
Jj Albany, nothing has yet stood out with
jjj', the sharpness and evidential value of;
i the brief testimony of Assemblyman
JValdraan in his own behalf. It con-j
ill! tains a lesson for both sides. I
1 1 "Even now Mr. Waldiuan is but'
jl twenty-eight years old. Coming to!
Illl (he country a boy of eighteen, he learn-1
ed English, prepared for a technical j
lit School, won a B. S. degree, became a
jjjj eTvil engineer, gained in competitive J
examination an engineering post in the :
Illl traction tunnels for the city and be-
( anie an assemblyman all in eight
xmbltious, industrious years.
"The raw Ukrainian boy who could
t o all that under such heavy handicap'
ii a time so short must have brought
1) this country qualities of talent and
energy whose potential value should
be apparent oven to a Speaker Sweet,
fir. Waldcman attacks his, work as an
assemblyman with tho same eager
inind and tireless vigor; other Social
ists in the assembly and the board of
aldermen have set similar examples
cf industry applied to public questions
not necessarily polItica'L
"Should not Mr. Waldman, on tho
other hand should not his friends and
defenders begin to see that the coun
try which offered him the opportunity
for such swift advancement, and
whose best non-Socialist elements
have come to his defense now that he
is unjustly accused, is not in such dire
need as he may have supposed of so
cial and political revolution?
"It is not in man to avoid making
mistakes; wise men are those who
best profit by thorn. Have not both
the Sweets and the Waldmans of Am
erica made mistakes chiefly through
arrogance and ignorance? Is it not
time to begin learning the lesson of
j their errors?"
CHURCH VS. MOVIES.
The Interchurch World movement
recently asked one thousand working
men what was their favorite "social"
agency the movies, the labor union,
the church, library or what? The re
plies were set down in the form of a
vote.
It was found that the labor union,
the organization which plays a great
part in getting increased wages, was
an almost universal favorite. The
movies ran the unions a close second.
The lodge was popular, also. Many
of the men declared they set aside on
night each week to attend lodge.
The surprising thing developed ihat
a great number were studious. Sev
eral declared their favorite form of
amusement was obtained at the public
library. There were a few who said
they enjoyed visiting art galleries,
But the Interchurch survey found
that one of Iho oldest of institutions
fared badly with the workingman.
That organization was the church. Th
report of the survey announced that I
none of the men questioned was hos-'
tile. He was indifferent. The ac- !
count of the survey concludes:
"The labor union, the lodge even !
tho movies provided a good enough j
medium for the workingman's hopes J
and aspirations. It did not take much
questioning, moreover, to show that,
the agitator of social unrest, who has
his strongest hold In the city, also
was becoming a powerful attraction in '
social gatherings. ' )
"From the survey the Interchurch I
World Movement has drawn the con
clusion, right or wrong, that any or
ganization which wishes to Interest
the worker must be as practical as the
labor union, as interesting as a movie
and as stimulating as a debating
forum."

FOUNDATION OF INDUSTRY.
J. It. Howard, temporary president
of the National Farm Bureau federa
tion, at a meeting of farmers In Chi
cago yesterday said:
"People are coming to realize that
farming is the foundation, of all indus
try. They must come to see that tho
enormous inflation of other industries
at the expense df the farmer will not
pay In the long run.
"Houses In rural districts are empty

while in the cities profiteers can de-'
mand any price they want for lodg
ing. This cannot last forever."
Those few words present a rather
Jclcar-cut picture of tho situation.
The declining value of European
currencies as compared with United
States money has had a strong ten
dency to cut down tho exportation of
certain products from the United
States, principally meat and grain.
iWho has been the principal sufferer?
!The farmer.
j Reports of the big packers disclose
that their profits were below normal
'for the last year and the packers say
this shows that when the drop in
'livestock came they decreased prices
'to the wholesaler of meat?
If wholesale prices of meat have do
'creased, there seems to bo little indi
cation of such decrease in quoted re
tail prices. Wage earners have not
noted a decrease in the cost of living
and the demands for higher wages to
meet living costs continue. And as
wages increase In the , cities, more
farm workers leave the farms for th,
higher wages paid in the city.
So the farmer gets hit In two ways.
He, is getting 'paid less for his live
stock than formerly, yet the decreaso
has not benefited the consumer, who
demands still higher -wages. And
these higher wages take away the far
mers' help.
The city workers cannot be bene
fited, either, by the condition.
If help Is scarce on the farms, the
farmer must pay more for farm labor.
This brings up the cost of the pro
ducts the farmer sells. The wage earn
er in the city must pay more. ' And
then he asks for more wages.
It looks like an almost continuous
performance of a dog chasing his tail

crop estimates, United States depart
ment of agriculture, shows that the av

Whole Proceeding Against
Suspended Assemblymen Is
Part of National Hysteria
ALBANY. N. Y March -1. MorriP
Hillquit, summing up in a five hour
speech in defense of the five suspend
ed Socialist assemblymen who have
been under investigation for the past
seven weeks, told the assembly judici
ary committee it had no right to im
pose upon these five men qualifica
tions for office not demanded by the
constitution.
Declnring that the whole proceeding
against his clients was "a part of the
national hysteria against radicalism, '
Mr. Hillquit demanded that the judici
ary committee frame a report recom
mending tho seating of the five Social
ists and completed his summing up
with a warning that if the assembly
men are unseated "that stain upon
democracy will never be washed off,
I never bo removed."
j "That precedent once created," hp
asserod, will work towards the undo
ing of the entire constitutional, rep
resentative system, so laboriously
built up and uphold in this country "
Mr. Hillquit said that ho had sum
marized all the charges under eighi
main heads as follows:
That the Socialist party is a revolu
tionary organization.
That it seeks to attain its end by
means of violence.
That it does not sincerely believe in
political action and that its politics
la only a blind or camouflage.
That it is unpatriotic and disloyal.
That it is unduly controlled or thai
I; unduly controls public off!cialj
elected on its tickets. j
That it owes allegiance to a foreign
power, known as the internationah;.
That it approves of the soviet gov-,
eminent of Russia and seeks to Intro-
duce a similar regime In the United,
States j
That the Socialist assemblymen per-j
sonally opposed prosecution of the!
war nnd gave aid and comfort to the!
enemy. i
Mr. Hillquit argued each of the first;
I seven charges at length, saying Sev-,
mour Stedman, his colleague, would'
reply to the last. Briefly, his answers
were: j
That the Socialist part j: was revolu
I'ionary and that Socialists are revolu
tlonists in tho sense that they favor'
a 'program that will lake the indu-;
trial system out of the hands of priv-,
ate individuals and 1urn it oyer to Uip
people to organize it properly.
That Socialism has come to build)
and not to destroy and that the mass'
action of the Socialist party has in I
view Is ihe legal organized action of I
large masses in the community.
That the Socialist party did its sa
cred duty to protest against the war,
inasmuch as the Socialist party did not
believe that democracy would be as
sured as the result of the war.
That the Socialist party has a right
tc tell candidates elected on the Social
Jat platform to get out of the party
should they prove untrue to platfoni
pledges and promises.
That the Socialist party Is not an
anti-national party and that if Social
Ism Is international, so is capitalism,
art and modern life.
Tht the Socialist party does not ap-
prove of the soviet government of Rus
sia and does not seek to introduce a,
soviet form of government In thfe
United States, although sympathizing
with the Russian Socialists in the
maintenance of their soviet gover-.-ment-
