FEDERAL CENSUS.

Recommendations Have Eeen Made for
SupervIsors--No Appointments Yet.
A special to the South McAlester
Capital from Washington gives the
following information:
Director Merriam today completed
ana made public the census districts
for the entire country. The work
has been done with a view of group
ing counties in such a manner as to
give each supervisor as close rela-
tions as possible with his entire dis
trict. In some states it has been
possible to do this, and the district
boundaries conform to congressional
districts, Such is the case with Illi-
nois. The city of Chicago is made a
single district, and the rest of the
state is divided in Is districts, which
are the same as Congressional dis
tricts. On the other hand, the state
of Arkansas is subdivided in such a
way that no census district follows a
Congressional district.
Oklahoma is made one district, but
it is not because there was not an
effort on the part of several distin-
guished Republicans to have it other
wise. While it has not yet been
made public it is rumored here that
Gov Barnes interested himself in
having Oklahoma divided into two
districts to have a supervisor that
would be named by the Barnes fac
ton and the other to be named by
Dennis Flynn. Supt. Merriam, how
ever, sat down on both propositions.
The Indian Territory came in for a
duplex arrangement likewise. Parties
from Muskogee, it is reported. want
ed Muskogee man to have plum
from the tree that the &. o. p. ele-
phant is shaking with his trunk, and
a party from Ardmore was anxious
to see that a "friend of mine" got
the Job. The result is that neither of
the two applicants will get the posi-
tion and that there is a probability
that it will 90 to a South McAlester
man.
There is considerable patronage
coming tc this office in the way of
"prestige" and it is slyly rumored
that Powell Clayton has scored a
point in the appointment of a sup
ervisor for the Indian Territory.
