The Census Man Is Coming.

L
lished. In this census the enumerators
are requested to list all horses, cattle
and other stock owned and kept in
towns and cities. Heretofore note has
been made only of live stock on farms.
The following is list of questions
which will be propounded by enumer-
ators:
Name in full.
Relationship of each member to the
head of the family.
Color or race.
Sex.
Age, at last birthday.
Day, month and year when born.
Are you single, married, widow,
widower or divorced.
Number of years married.
How many children.
Number of children living.
Sex of these children.
Place of birth.
Birthplace of father.
Birthplace of mother.
Ii foreign born, date of arrival In
Uuited States.
How many years residence in the
United States.
State il naturalized. If so, how
long ago.
Occupation, trade or profession,
(This question applies to persons of ten
years old or over.)
Number of months during the year
not employed.
Number of months spent in school.
Jan you read?
Can you write?
Give the main facts concerning your
education.
Do You own the house in which you
live?
Do you rent the house in which you
| live?
II you own the house, is it free from
mortgage?
There are twenty-six of these ques-
tions and it is doubtful if the inquis-
tive Lii Hung Chang could complete a
more comprehensive list. 1t has been
concluded that the questions relative
to chronic diseases which were asked
at the last census were utterly value
less as statistics, owing to the general
inclination of theRublic to eyade an
swering. 1t is announced that one of
the chef purposes Of the director OF
the twelfth census is to obtain accu-
rate figures as to the wealth and re-
sources of the various states and cities
of the Union. This is regarded rs val
liable material by Director Merriam,
who oversees the entire work from his
Headquarters in Washington.
The year 1900 and 1901 will consti-
tute the greatest census taking years
in the history of the world. Besides
the United States fourteen of the prin-
cipal European countries are to have a
census. The census of the United
States however, will be more extensive
than that of any other country.
The census of 1890 cost the govern
mentS11 ,271 800 and more than 10000
men were employed in taking it. The
cost of the present census will neces-
sarily exceed that figure. Chief Re-
porter.
The commissions for the census en-
umerators in the Seventh district have
been mailed from the Office of the GEN.
sus supervisor. A letter from II. @.
Merriam, head of the census depart
ment, received, fixes the compensation
to be received by the enumerators.
The pay is based ON the returns. Each
district is classified A or b, and com
pensation allowed rs follows:
For each living inhabitant enumera-
ted class A, 2 cents: Class b, u cents.
For each farm returned, class A, 10

THE COLORED VOTERS.

The colored politicians are preparing
to fight the movement to eliminate the
colored vote of Virginia through con-
stitutional convention. Circulars have
been printed and sent broadcast
throughout the State calling for con-
yention TO be held at Charlottesville on
August % TO deal with this and other
questions affecting the Interests of the
negroes. These circulars are signed by
eigeteeD negroes, most OF them from
Richmond. Following is copy OF the
circu ar-letteT: Governments derive
their just power from the consent OF the
governed. We, the undersigned citi-
zsns of Virginia, in view of the recent
call for a constitutional convention in
this State, promoters of which proclaim
that the chief end 10 view is to curtail
the vote of the colOred citizen with
out interfering with that. OF the white
man, Notwithstanding he may poss ess
no more of the requisites of exercising
the elective franchise than his back
neighbor, feel that we should
confer as to our duty in this
matter and in- a collective way. AT
least, let our neighbors know how we
feel the injustice of the act proposed
after oil the years of toll and labor We
have spent in helping to build up the
waste places OF the old commonwealth,
By telling her forests, building her rail
roads, excava ing her canals, beautify-
log her cities and tilling the soil"
"There'ore We invite at least five
persons from each county in the State
o meet in conference in the city OF
Charlottesville on Wedne 3dsy, August

this matter and do such other things es

History of the United States, which the

The book is used in the high schools OF
