POPULAR INTEREST Shows ~
IRIS SUCCESS.
Need Of Cooperation OF Manufacturers
with the Enumerators and Special
Agents In Giving Information.

There was never so great "a popular
interest In a census as I'm this one
writes william II. Curtis In the Chicago
Record, land in our work we have the
sympathy and cooperation Of manufac-
turers and business men. There Is a
great deal OF local pride everywhere eX-
hibited i'm making a creditable show
ing over 1890, for by this census the
relative Importance OF every town and
city as a manufacturing and Industrial
center will be judged. l hope that ev-
erybody will cooperate with the emu
meratOrs In securing the Information
required The task of the enumerator
and special agent is not a pleasant one
The natural disposition of the manufac-
turer is to resent the inquiries required
by Congress which call for the details
of his business. He looks upon these
details as his own private affairs, with
which the public and the government
have nothing to do, and is inclined to
visit his irritation upon the agent, for
getting that the latter is merely carry
ing out his instructions, and doing his
duty. The manufacturer need not fear
that any fact about his business will
ever be revealed. The secrecy of the
census return has never yet been Vio-
lated, nor should the manufacturers
resent the desire of the government to
obtain this information. The authority
I o
for ninety years. 1t has never been dis
puted and has never been abused, and
it ought not to be questioned by intelli-
gent and patriotic manufacturers.
"Since the law compels manufacturers
to give the information called for by
the schedules adopted by Congress, it
is a great deal better that they should
reduce the labor of the census agents
by giving it promptly, fully and intelli-
gently. Instead of blocking and embar-
RAISING the work of the officials the
manufacturers ought to give them SYM
pathy and active cooperation and help
them to make the best and quickest
census ever taken as a statistical pho
tograph of the productive energies of
the nation and it's industrial wealth.
perhaps / can convey some concep-
ton of the amount of clerical work
involved. We anticipate the receipt Of
800, 900 schedules, each containing from
forty to sixty entries which must be
checked, classified and edited, the revis-
ion must be verified, tabuated and add
ed, and the tabulation and addition
verified before the final publication.
This involves 200, 100000 separate hand
lings of the schedules, and there are
many more operations and calculations,
proof reading and other preparations for
the press, for which Congress allows
only 600 working days. We have a
working force of 300 clerks, who will be
compelled to make an average of 1000
computations a day, or 300 an hour, or
five a minute"

NEGROES QUIT.

The negroes of Georgia are leaving
the farms, says the Macon Telegraph.
This observation is causing considera-
BILE speculation among the land owners
in some localities of the State, and In a
few instances that fact has engen-
dered a feeling that borders on alarm.
The fact of the negroes leaving the
agricultural disticts is more in evil
dence during the past few months than
for any period in several years. Many
of them are going into the towns and
villages, and many more into districts
where public works, such as sawmills
and turpentine stills, are in operation
Only two months ago carload of ne
groes, gathered from the farms of
Houston county, left Fort Valley and
migrated to Colquitt county, where in
dustries of this kind are in full blast
and a like number from Epson coun-
ty where more recently imported to the
land of turpentine and lumber.
