TWELFTH CENSUS.
Daties and Requirements Of the $4,000
Euumerasors--Four Schedules
Instead Of Ten.

In the census building great room
is now the scene OF bustling activity,
the work Of preparing portfolios for
use by enumerators in the coming
count Of the population being fairly
under way. These portfolios, OF whit
ish-brown pasteboard, hinged together
with black cloth. are l8 inches long
and 10 wide and tied with four sets Of
tape. The tape used 10 not that red
tape" which TO the ordinary mind sig.
nifies circumlocution and delay. The
law requires speed in the census OF
1900 and common every day white cot
ton tape will fasten the schedule-fliled
portfolios In their round from habita-
tion 10 habitation. For convenient, ac-
curate and rapid enumeration the Uni
ted States has been divided into 800
supervisors districts, and these in turn
into about $4,000 enumeration dis
tricts, or 4. D.'s. as they are called in
the census Office. Each Of the $4,000
enumerators 10 yet to be appointed. so
ON the portfolios q blank space is left
for his name.
The last census found the unhappy
enumerator loaded down with from 10
30 Is schedules, each having volumin-
Gus instructions, to master which re.
Quired considerable mental ability and
power Of memory. That census was
taken under q law which required emu
merators to ask many obnoxious ques-
tions. The census act Of 1900 happily
for all does not require these disagree
able queries.
Four schedules, mot 10, cover emu
merator's inquiries in 1900; schedules
requiring information about popula-
tion, vital statistics. manufactures and
agriculture. In cities the enumerator
will seldom need the agricultural, or
in the rural districts the manufacturing
schedule, so he will infrequently carry
more than three.
A general realization by American
citizens Of their personal interest in q
successful prosecution OF the canvass
by this white-tape army should arouse
sentiments Of local interest and pride
in each enumeration district citizen
would concern themselves about the
selection of their registrar and local
arbiter.
The white-tape army should bc made
up of msn of high standard. They
should be quick. competent, courteous,
tactful and truthful.
