THE BEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY. JULY 28. 1910. 0 I CENSUS TAIiISC IS ALASKA Enumerators Work in Snow from "Three td Twenty Feet Deep. SEVEflTY-TWO BELOW ZEEO i Men Travel Hundreds of Mllea la Head of V Inter and Work la Finished Wlthoat Loss of V a JHngle Life. WASHINGTON, July r -Temperature from 20 to 70 degrees below sero. Snow from three to twenty feet deep. Wind blow ing a bustard most of the time. No human habitation In sight; no coverdlnf at nlfht except K tent, and no "stud" that was not many times frozen. These are some of the conditions under wmch the recent census was taken In the Interior of Alaska. The report of Chief Asent McKenile cov erins; the work In the fourth or Inland district of the territory has Just been re- celred by- IHrector Durand, and while the story Is simply told. It Is a wonderful thrillm narrative -of adventure, showing that when Uncle Sam starts out to round up his children, he spares no expense to locate them and satisfy himself as to their status. Mr. McKensle' narrative, made public tonight, comes In advance cf his figures, so that It la Impossible to give the popula tion of the country covered by him and his twenty assistants. For reasons of It own the census bureau determined to num ber the Alaskans' during midwinter. Mr. McKensle made his headquarters at th mining town of Fairbanks. His first spe cial agent was appointed on the 10th last November and the work was completed by the-11th of last April, when McKensle left for '-the states." His experience In getting out pf the country was by no means as thrilling as some of his experiences while engaged In the work, but It was stirring enough to arouse Interest In a warm spell. Of It he says: "I came out on the mall coach arriv ing at Valdes on the 20th, after a varied experience consisting of being delayed two .1 r a. k. Ulaaa.J Mt.talnV Plllhln streams even whenthe horses had to swim Kfc ahd the sleds float, and traveling day and f night with- the thermometer often as low ' as 40 below xero." The bureau's principal reason for a win ter census Is found' In the fact that get ting about the country is much easier at that than, at any other season. There are no bridges in the country and as crossing th. IIMlma rhn tint tmumn nvmr is ' a "drlous problem, Mr'' McKensle says that" to have made the enumeration In the sum mer, would, have required , the Servian of 1 four times as many-assistants, whto the I cost would have been six times as great tie also expressed doubt as to whether the result would have been as satisfactory. As It Is, he Is of opinion thst It Is "accurate and complete." , Much hardship' was necessarily Involved In the work. Only men Inured to the rigors of the Arctic climate , were employed, and while they suffered severely, none of them lost their lives. ,., Summing up the condi tions, Mr. McKensle says; - Men Take Pride In Work. The' work was performed during the eterest winter a known In this part of Alaska by the oldest settlers, and the men kept constantly and ' -conscientiously at It until completed. ' There did not appear to . be a man who did . not have a pride In the work and anxiety to create a record for traveling, time' a desire to enumerate all the people in tv's a 'strict and to have to hit credit less loss of time because of ex treme weather, than any of the other agents. That' the' service lost none of the i men from, freeslng to death and that every man' returned ' safe Is a matter of con gratulation and good fortune. There were more deaths from the weather In this sec tion during the past winter than In all of the other years In total cases, too, in which those who met such desths did not begin to go through the sacrifice and priva tion that thoae agents of the service did. All Of the men' covered hundreds of miles over the ice and snow In weather ranging from' 20 to 70 degrees below sero, the aver age being about 40 below. The experience of the agent In Chandlar district Is a1 fair example. Speaking of him, the chief agent says "hs was not scholar, but a man who had lived there for years' and well fitted to undergo the privations necessary." That his good quel Hies were put to the severest test the re port shows, ' "Severe westher ' was encountered throughout all of his work." says McKensle, "and ' at' no time after he left Fairbanks until he returned did the thermometer get above 30 degrees below sero. His long jour ney away (rolh the bsse of supplies made niceesary constantly to ra!k ahead of the earn on snowshoes. eveatyTwo Below Bern. Summing up his report Mr. McKensle says: "This constitutes a resume of the work performed during the period from August 11. In which I crossed the United States nd went up Into the Interior of Alaska, experienced weather conditions the extreme of which wis 72 degrees below sero, and during which time In the course of the work It was necessary several times to ""amp In the open where the couch con fisted of the snow and a few spruce boughs and the roof a tent or the sky. During the months of December and January the sun shone from one to two hours per day." Churches and school houaee In the In terior of Alaska are few and far between Necessarily they are confined to the towns and Indian settlements. Most of the In dlan schools, as well as the church serv ices, are conducted by the missionaries. The white people do not attend either the Indian schools or the Indian churches, so that those of the outlying districts get their religion and their education at home. in the matter of education Mr. McKensle reports that the home system works very well, the long nights of the winter causing an enforced confinement of children that Is conducive to study.. He says that many of them do even better than students In the schools. ' ' ' Mr. MoKensle alio reports that there Is very little sickness among the white In habitants of Alaska, and he ssys that few of those who are sick will acknowledge the fact. There Is no fever, but some pneu monia. Most of the Indians are afflicted wl-h tuberculosis and other diseases of civilisation are prevalent. Chicago Company Would Buy Road L. E. Myeri' Corporation Seeking Op tion on Lei Moines City. Railway. Cummins Attacks i United States Steel Company Says Corporation it Vastly Orer- Capitalized on Actual Value of Its Property. O LATHE, Kan., July Zt. Senator Albert B. Cummins, In an address here this after noon attacked the United States Steel com pany. This was the last speech of 8enator Cum mins' present Kansas tour. Immediately after he had finished speaking he left for his home In Des Moinea. la. Senator Cum mins said he would fill no more speaking dates between now and August i. The heat and the strenuous work of the cam paign In Kansas have sapped the senator's strength and he has gone home to rest for a time. Senator Cummins in his speech here said In pait: "You will remember that In 101 the Carnegie company of Pittsburg sold Its plant to the United States Steel corporation, organised that year. The steel corporation paid the Carnegie Steel company $500,000,000 for Its plant and business. Of this Incom prehensible sum Andrew Carnegie received 1360,000.000 In the bonds of the corporation and his associates In business received the remainder. What was the plant worth? That la not a subject longer In dispute. It has been most minutely Investigated.' The highest value any reasonable man would put on It In 1901 was $80,000,000 and the United States Steel corporation paid to Andrew Carnegie's company 1420,000,000 more than It was worth, more than would be required to reproduce it with every modern improvement known to the business. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, la., July J7.-(Speclal.) It was announced here - that the L. 3. Myers company of Chicago Is seeking a nine-months' option on the property of the Des Moinea city railway company. If the company Is successful It will begin a cam paign to secure a tentative franchise at once. Last of the Asaesanaenta. The state executive council today com pleted the last of . the asessmenta on In- terubans, finishing up one job delayed by Insufficient Information. This was fixing the taxable value of the Centerville-Mystlc Interurban at 11,300 a mile for seven miles The road this year has been extended from a Centervllle street car system to an Inter urban. This completes all the work in connection with fixing valuations. Land Valaes Are Too Low. In consideration of the assessment matters the council virtually decided that the tax able value of lands as fixed by the local assessors Is entirely too low. He was shown to the satisfaction of the council that the assessed actual values as returned in mrmbero f counties were only about 46 per cent of actual values at which the lden tlcal land was sold. While the council declined to enter upon a policy of raising these land values, it virtually gave notice that next year when the assessor makes their rounds they will be required to fix values on land more nearly according to what it is selling for In the market Well Satisfied .with Examination. State Superintendent J. F. Rlggs oomes to the defense of the state board of exam' Iners and Insists that the records do not show any serious trouble in the matter of seourlng certificates. Of. the nearly 7.000 persons who took . examinations at the June hearings in the state, a total of 52.8 per cent scoured certificates on first ef fort Those who failed get another chance or rather may complete the work later. He also shows that probably 75. per com of the high school graduates are able to secure high grades on' first effort. This I especially true of the high schools in the larger cities.

It impossible f or -him to carry sufficient icruo and dog feed, and he was obliged to live off the country," killing moose, moun tain 'sheep and other fresh meat. During the work he lost two of his dogs from (reeling to death. He himself frose por tions of his face several times, and at one time dropped Into six feet of open 'water, nearly losing his life. In crossing the Arctle range' and returning - he traveled above timber line eighteen hours In each tiiiootion. which la a country where fire la necessary can be undei stood to be a con aiderable sacrifice. He traveled in many places where no white man had ever before been, and hjs record is consiaerea unusual, to say the least." Snowstorm la Incessant. That the Koyskuk agent's work was no Fourth-of-July pieulc lth strawberry lem unade on the side Is Indicated by the fol lowing extract from the official narrative ' "in this district there is almost an In ressant snow storm from October to Msy and trails 'are obritera'ted In twenty-four fcours. Few men, except the mall carriers, will travel In this district In the winter, and even they make but one trip a month 1 Twice he nearly lost his life, and had be not been accompanied ' by an Indian guide nrobably would have. At one time he and tlie aulde and a mall carrier and two In dians were lost In the storm for three dsys gnd were found at the end or met time oy a rescue party which came out to locate the mall." Of the Tanana man we are told: "Not less than four times was this man found by other travelers In sn exhsusted eondltlon and assisted to a stopping place. He Inst three dogs and several times frose alt face. That he survived the work and came back alive was the wonder of the Old inhabitants of the country. Half a dosen men refused the Job before he was secured, fix men and two women were froxen on the trails In the vicinity In whloh he worked." AH the traveling was done on dogsleds. from seven to nine animals being used with seen sled. The agents were paid 1 a day and extra for the use of their vehicles. generally It was necessary for two men to go together, so that in case of accident to one the other could proceed with the labor, for the census must oe taaen wnar aver the cost In life or money. : Especial pains were taken to find every resident, and we are told that each cabla wss visited unless to reach It would ooet .ore then two dsys of time.

We endorse the last demooratio national platform and the Nebraska democratic state pisiform of 190 and 1M. We con gratulate the party upon the wlde spresd revival of democratic sentiment which gives promise of democratlo vic tory. We see In the passsge of the present tsrrlff an' example ot subserviency of the republican administration to privi leged Interests of the country. We con gratulate that country that democratlo opposition has thus far succeeded In defeating the Iniquitous ship subsidy. We recognise in the many excessive rates on such favored products as steel, woolen goods, rubber, lumber and others, the return whloh the republi can politicians are making to the plun dering trusts for campaign contribu tions two years ago. - We condemn the president for sur rendering to Aldrlch and Cannon the control of tariff revision and for using his patronage to force unwilling con gressmen of the republican party to ac cept their dictation. We deplore the president's folly and weakness In sur rounding himself with a cabinet of trust advisers. We favor the conservation of the natural resources of the country and condemn the policy under which favored capitalists and political syndicates se cure control of water power, coal mines and other sources of the nation's wealth In the states and Alaska unrestrained and apparenty favored by the present national administration. We condemn the president for retaining In his cabi net the close friend and former attorney for the powerful and unacrupulous syn dicate caught In the very act of plunder. We Join the democrats everywhere In pledging the party to the cause of tariff reform, economy and simplicity In gov ernment trust prosecution and the rati fication of the Income tax amendment. We have confidence that upon the na tional Issue and In an attack on na tional evils we shall receive the oo-oper-atlon and support of independent voters and win a sweeping victory In Nebraska. We heartily approve of the daylight saloon law, and we commend the cour ageous action of Governor Shallenberger In approving It. We approve and endorse the adminis tration of Ashton C. Shallenberger. His acts have been honest wise and pa triotic. We Invite a careful scrutiny of the executive power which two years ago was committed to our trust in his selection as governor. - His administra tion has been one of fidelity and devo tion to the party pledges upon which we Invited the suffrages of the people. We endorse the sctlon of our lsst legislature In carrying out the plat form pledges of the party. We are In favor of the following amendments to our constitutions: First Providing for blenr.lal election. Second Providing for the election of judges of the supreme court by dis tricts on a nonpartisan ballot. Third Providing for a nonpartisan board of control of our state institu tions. Fourth Providing for the Initiative nd referendum. Fifth Giving to metropolitan cltlee and of the fltst clasa the right to make their own charters. We pledge ourselves to a redisrict ing of the state by the legislature to be elected this year to the end that all counties and sections of the state may have fair and equitable representation. We favor such laws as will take our courts and schools out of partisan politics. We favor the advancement of aRricul- ture and pledge the legislature if suc cessful to favor the establishment of an agricultural school In southwestern N braska. We believe that the prosperity of any country Is In direct ratio to Its faclll ties for communication and transports tlon; we therefore-favor the enactment of a more effective system of road lawa that will provide for state and county aid In the construction of perma nent wagon reads. - The rapid increase In the use of the automobiles as a means of travel neces sitates such legislation as will protect me puouc against accident rrom reck less. Immature and inefficient drivers. We pledge our loeal. committees and state committee and our, candidates not to accept contributions from any railroad or otner corporation,'- trust, brewery, aismiery or saloon, anti-saloon .organ! ation, or from any pers&n or associ ation pecuniarily or prejudicially Inter ested n recuring or defeating legislation. we are opposed to making county option, or any otner pian ror tne Tegu latlon of the liquor traffic, a Question of party creed.- We stand for and in sist upon stridt enforcement of our present isws, ana Deiieve that any further changes In our liquor legisla tion should be decided by a direct vote of the people, and that the cause of good government and public morals will be better served in that way than by dividing the people Into hostile factions on purely moral lsaues.

Fif teen miles esst the same conditions pre vailed, and a few miles southward the parched earth had Its thirst still un quenched when day dawned. At Walnut and Avoca, In ' the eastern - end of the county thsre wm a havy rainfall. At Macedonia and Carson, a few miles north and esst there was no rain. At Trey nor It rained slightly. The rain at Council Bluffs came down without any disturbance except a most brilliant electrical display.

Ordinarily 111 such a stoim many buildings or trees would have been struck, but not a single incident of the kind was reported yesterday. No damage nas done at the telephone stations except the melting of a few fuaes by cur rents that appeared to have been carried a long way on field wires. The clouds were floating so high above the earth that the deep intervening stratum of com para tlvely dry air afforded nearly perfect in sulatlon and few if any of the electric rashes reached the earth.
