Announcement is made that almost
all of the enOmerators in the state
win have completed their work in
few days. More than half Of them
have already covered their territory
and their papers have been returned
to Dr. Ball state supervisor The
onumerators have had little difficulty Ia
the discharge of their duties, the people
with very few exceptions, showing
willingness to give the information de-
sired Several OF the enumerators
were not backward about saying, how
ever. that those who did cause them
trouble were not always foreigners, as
i'm the case where It was necessary to
bring a prosecution.
Many amusing incidents occurred as
the enumerators went from house to
house. Although it must have been
generally known that they are sworn
10 secrecy. people frequently asked
thcm questions concerning their neigh
b)rs.
"say, howe old is Miss so-snd-so?'
asked one woman of the enumeratc-,
very anxious to find out the age Of
her next door neighbor 'She won't
tell anyone her age and I'm Just dying
TO know" OF course she didn't hnd
out from the census enumerator, who
is woman and knows how to kecp
a secret-when she has to.
It is not known by the local Office

Railroads Alone Will Pay Out
This Amount This Year

The railway wage advances. already
made or to be made before the end Of
The year, are now estimated at 100000
O00 for the entire country. This is the fig
ure given by President Brown OF tho
New York Central. 1t includes. of course,
many advances the details Of which have
not yet been settled.
Calculated on the Interstate Commerce
Commission statistics as a basis, the
wages paid TO railway employees, under
the new scale, will amount TO S1227233,
O0O year This is arrived at by estimat-
ing the operating expenses OF the present
fiscal year from the monthly reports now
available: applying the percentage of la
Dor cost to total operating expenses in
190S, the latest year for which wage fig
ures have been published; and adding
tht S10O,O00.0O0 estimated advance IN wages
this year.
The 81, ,227. .2S30OO which. is estimated,
will be paid out TO the employees annually
under the new scale. compared with ST.
o72,3S6OoO in the fiscal year 1907, the year
which holds the record for the volume or
railway business.
Wages on the railroads were not re-
duced after the 1907 panic, so that this
years advance are on top of those which
were made i'm 1906 and the early part or
1901 The proportion of labor cost to to-
tai operating expenses has increased
steadily for several years.
