WHO WILL
Be ENUMERATED
The Census Bureau Issues instruc-
tons to the Enumerators on
This Particular Point.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 2i.-The
explicit and lengthy printed instrue-
tions TO the census enumerators,
which have been prepared by the
United States Census Bureau, give a
clear idea of the character of the
answers expected from the people o.
the United States with regard to the
questions i nthe population schedule to
be carried in he Decennial Census
April Is next.
All W are to have reference
solely to the Census Day" which is
April Is. Persons living on that day.
but who died after ii and before the
e~nunerators call, are to be counted.
but persons born after April Is are
not to be included in the count. Per-
sons who were single on April is are
to be reported as single, even though
they have married subsequently and
before the ~canyasser has called. This
is true, similarly. of persons who be-
came widowed or divorced after April
Is.
The census law provides that all
persons shall be enumerated at their
usual place Of abode" on April Is.
This means the place where they may
be said to live or belong or the place
which is their home. AS a rule, the
usual place of abode is not the place
where a person works or where he
eats, but where he regularly sleeps.
The e~numerators are cautioned, how
ever, that where a man happens to
sleep at the time of the enumeration
may not be the place where he reg
ularly sleeps.
There will be a number of persons
having their usual places of abode in
enumeration districts who will be abb
sent April Is. These are to be in
Guided and enumerated after the facts
regarding them have been obtained
from their families, relatives, ac-
quaintance, or other persons able to
give the information. For instance.
if a member of any family in an enum-
GRAFTON district is temporarily away
from home on a visit, or on business,
or travelling for pleasure. " attend
ing school or college, or sick in a hos
i pital, such absent person is to be
enumerated and included with other
members OF the family. But a son or
daughter regularly living in another
locality should not be counted with
the family at home.
Servants, laborers, or other en-
~ployees, who live with the family, and
sleep in the same house OF on the
premises. should be enumerated with
the family.
The Census Bureau states that
there will be, on the other hand, a
certain number of persons present
and perhaps lodging and sleeping in
| districts at the time of the enumera-
ton who do not have their usual place
OF abode there. These are not to be
enumerated. 1t must be assumed that
they will be enumerated elsewhere.
The canvassers should not, therefore,
unless it is practically certain that
lthey viii not be enumerated any,
where else, enumerate or include with
the members of a family they are
enumerating any of the following
classes:
Persons visiting a family;
Transient b~oarders or dodgers who
have some other usual or permanent
place of abode;
Students or children living or
boarding with a family in order to at
tend some school, college. or other
educational Institution in the locality

the trainmen and conductors, viii re-
turn their rejoinder to the road today.

Consider Roads Answer.
An executive meeting OF the dele.

probably be presented today.

which have just been made upon the

the Canadian roads officials. On the
face OF this a vote is now being taken
among the men as to whether a strike

Lima, Peru, Dec. 30.-A joint note
from the mediating powers, the Unit

the government to prepare for hostili-

The two countries were brought to
the verge of war last spring because
of inability to reach settlement of
the boundary question, which had been
submitted to King Alfonso of Spain as
arbitrator. His majesty delayed the
award, intlmating the parties them

better results. In the meantime both
countries had sent armies to the from

OPTION FIGHT IN CANADA.
Bitter Contest Being Wased Through
out Province of Ontario.

Ottawa, Ont, Dec. 30.-Throughout
the whole extent of Ontario, from
Glengarry county in the East to Essex
county in the West, the final skirmish-
ing Is now on in what is regarded as
the most important local option cam
paign ever waged in the Province. on
Monday next more than four-score
municipalities including many of the
leading cities, will vote upon the
question of local prohibition.
The temperance forces are thor
oughly organized and have conducted
an aggressive campaign. The anti
prohibition element processes to feel
no fear over the outcome of the con-
test but unprejudiced opinion inclines
to the belief that the elections will re-
suit in considerable addition to the
dry area of the Province.
There are SIC municipalities in on
tario at the present time with a total
of 1850 licenses. -Four hundred and
ten OF these municipalities are now dry
and 406 wet, or i'm other words the
strength of the opposing elements Is
almost equally divided.
A striking feature of the campaign
is the comparatively few attempts be-
ing made to repeal option. Last year
there were Ill municipalities in which
repeal contests were possible. but In
only IL was the matter brought to q
vote, and only bylaws were repeal
ed. This year there are 12s municipal
tiles in which local option bylaws
have been in force for years or more
and where repeal contests might b'
made in accordance with the law. Blu
of the entire 12S places, only half
dozen have taken advantage OF tn
privilege and will vote on the question
of repeal. This fast is cited by the ad
vocates of prohibition as affordint
conclusive evidence of the success o
the anti saloon laws and as an in
dication of a still further weakening
of the liquor traffic as a result OF mex
weeks elections.
