Everything has been done that could
be done to insure an accurate account
of the population. The rest of the work
now depends upon the enumerators.
IF they do their duty" SAID Mr.. Wardle
last evening, 1.-THE count must neces-
sarily be full one. When the enumer-
ators return the schedules can at once
tell whether the work has been done
well, and 1 shall not be afraid to say
so." Enumerators have been instructed
to commence the count at O'Clock TO-
morrow morning. They are to report at
census headquarters in the evening
and furnish the number OF people
enumerated. An enumeration failing to
report will find, and their man at work
in his district the next morning. The
total count for each day Will be published
in the GLOBE. Special Agent Wardle
and his assistants will be at the federal
building to-day. There is really no
work for them to do now until the count
begins, but they will be in attendance
at census headquarters from 9 a. m. I'M
til $50 p. m, In case any enumerators
desire additional information respecting
their duties. Mr.. Wardle has also in.
structed the men he has commissioned
in event of any falling sick, to once
communicate with him. He will, under
the circumstances, Immediately appoint
another enumerator for the district to
which the sick man had been assigned:
Special Agent Wardle is we'll posted
on census, and perhaps no man is better
fitted for taking recount of ST. Paul
under the circumstances it has been or
dered. He is courteous and gentle
manly official, man of wide expert
enoe, and hard worker. When at his
post in Washington he is almost welded
10 his work. A gentleman. who knows
| him we'll, said more industrious Off
cial could not be found in he census
bureau. "You go the office In the
morning, and Wardle is at his desk;
you go again at IL o'clock in the even
| ing, and you will find him still there"
| Mr.. Wardle is hard worker, but he
| does not fail to keep up his social end,
| and that, too, in rare style. "Wardle IS
a king among fellows" was the warm
testimonial paid him by Peter I. Wood,
Appointment official OF the census bu-
| reau. Mr.. Wardle began mis- career in
| census work in 1875 in the New York
state census bureau. He occupied the
position of chief of the agricultural di-
vision of the census of 1880, and had
charge of all matters relating to the
termination of the tenth census in the
| department of the interior until the Or
| ganization of the present office.
