ENUMERATORS TO
SOON GET MONEY
Census Bureau In Sight OF Com.
pIetiOn of Enormous Task.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. Aug. 22. -
After more than two months work,
the Census Bureau is in sight of the
completion of the task of paying of
the 20, 000enumerators who have work
ed on the compilation of the data for
the general public. That this pay
ment is a great task, is evident from
the fact that each of these generators
receives from $50 to $50 or more for
his work and that each had to be paid
separately and personally. The sum
needed for this work exceeded the APP
preparation and there has been con-
siderable delay while the money was
obtained from the government. But
now all but 2, 600 of the enumerators
have received their pay for the work
done by them and the Department of
Commerce and Labor has expended
nearly "a, 600, 600, for the work of the
enumeration of the census alone. 1t is
impossible at this time to compute the
cost of the entire work for the compil-
alton for all the data will not be COM
pleted for months, and those in charge
of the work are drawing large salaries
during all this time. While the work
of the census is primarily that of de-
termining the number of persons in
the United States, and her possessions,
yet it also includes a immense amount
of other data that is practically I'M
known to the average citizen who sees
in his paper that the population of Os-
kosh has increased certain per cent.
in the past decade. The census emu
merators gather the data for informa-
ton regarding farming, irrigation,
plantation, florist and nursery sche-
dulles, as we'll as schedules covering !
the movements of live stock in cities
and villages. All this comes under
the head of agriculture. The same
minuteness is observed in the gather \
ing OF. the data on manufactures, the
cost Of city governments, the languages
used in the country, the number and
nature of the religious sects Of the
country and detailed information on
many other subjects.

1t was learned Friday that a
company which is putting in
test wells for gas and oil five
miles from Jonesville, in Lee
county, Va, has struck a four
teen foot vein of excellent iron
ore at the depth of three hun
dred feet below the surface.
The report which reached this
city, and which is reliable.
states that the ore is OF good
quality and the drillings, in ad-
dition 70 showing iron ore, show
deposits of limestone which is
so pure that the behring's brought
to the surface are almost pure
lime, showing that the stone
contains but a small amount of
silica or other foreign substan-
cess says an exchange Of Blue

The gentleman who brought
the report TO this city says that
in all his life he has never seen
such remarkable deposits of
minerals as are found ia that
locality. There is enough lime

stone in the region, said he, to
supply the lime markets of the
world for centuries, while the
deposits Of coal are so great
that they appear to be mex
haustible- The surface indica-
tions show all the known indi-
cations of oil and gas in large
quantities, and there is every
reason to believe there is a
large amount of oil and gas, if
It can be located. 1t is for this
purpose that test wells are be-
ing sunk at this time. The in
formant, who was in the city
Friday, says he picked up a
piece of onyx, and while he has
not a sufficient knowledge of
the qualities of onxy 10 state
the quality of the piece he
found, he believes there are
good deposits of onyx in that
region. The coal, it is well
known, is of very high grade,
and is especially adapted for
coaking purposes. There is
perhaps no higher grade of
cooking coal in the world than is
found IN some parts of the
Black Mountain, which is close
by. Every indication points TO
tremendous deposits of all the
minerals found near 60 coal in
Lee, Scott and Wise counties.
There are also good deposits of
zinc, while it is believed there
IS copper In paying quantities.
As a matter of fact the region
around luefield is more
wealthy than even it's warmest
admirers have ever believed.
Ginseng and timber, as well as
the best grazing lands in the
world are found here. The ex-
cellent limestone land makes il
valuable for agricultural pur-
suits, although they are not
extensively followed Under
meath Is coal, limestone. sand
stone, iron, gypsum, silica, clay
barytes, lead, zinc, onyx, oil
and natural gas. With such
enormous resources as these il
hardly seems likely that the
people of this section will want
TO allow their section TO pass
