The UNITED STATES, we are reminded by the
Hon. w. r. Merriam, late director of the Cen
sus, vas the first nation to provide for peri
odical count of its people. Within century
its example had been followed by the whole
civilized world. The United States census
started in 1870 with six questions. A hundred
years later it was recording something like
complete biography of every inhabiteHt. The
6rst census law was signed by George Wash
ington; the latest by Theodore Roosevelt
The law allowed nine months to count little
less than 1900 600 persons in 1870, but it really
took eighteen. There were about $50 enumer
ators. In 1900 there were nearly $1,000 emu
merators, and they counted 100000 persons
in one month. The first census did not cru-
ploy single clerk; the last employed 1854.
The first census cost not quite $45 600; the last
cost nearly s12, 900. If it were not for the
introduction of electrical tabulating machines
it would hardly be possible now to get out all
the figures for one census before would come
the time to take the next, and the cost would
run up so high that it would need another
machine to calculate it.
