CENSUS WILL
COST COUNTY
ABOUT $3,25O
FreehOIders Appropriated $4,000
for the Work Which Leaves
a Surplus.
BILLS NOT ALL IN.
Some Of the EnumeratOrs in
the Country Districts Were
Also the Supervisors.
Special to the Evening News.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. 25:--
The taking of the census in Middle
sex county will cost about S3,250
The enumerators ascertained that
there were ,97,036 people in the
county and the county must
pay 5 cents name fol-
the work of making the canvass and
also whatever additional expense
was incurred in having Interpreters
aid the enumerators in the foreign
districts
In ther ural sections of the county
the enumerators doubtless incurred
other expenses in making their can
vass as they had much ground to
cover, the Inhabitants being located
on farms and in out of the way
places
Bills Thus Far.
County Collector Serviss in the
last report rendered by him of bills
ordered paid by the froeholders fol
the taking of the census, gives Il loI
OF bills amounting in all to 81, S63.6O
These bills cover the work in all OF
the districts except Highland Park
Raritan, Piscataway, Cranbury, Met
uchen and Monroe. Figuring out the
cost of taking the names in these
districts upon the population given
without adding anything for outside
expenses, the total amounts to 49,
194.99 so that, with an allowance
for expenses, the cost should not ex
ceed $3.50.
The freeholders appropriated S4,-
600 for this work so there will be
surplus when all of the bills have
been paid.
In some of the districts
which were small, but one
man was appointed to take the cen
sus and he was given the name o
supervisor and enumerator. The fac
that he had two titles permitted hin
to get three cents on each name. He
thus Jared better than the others, as
the enumerators in large districts
only received two cents, the Other
cent going to the supervisor, who
was another individual.
