ENUMERATORs RATES OF PAY
Census Director Durand Estab-
fishes Classification of the
Compensation of Census
Takers.
W ashington, D. c.,

January %, 1910.
The varying wage scales in different
parts OF the country and the differences
IN the nature and extent of the local
difficulties confronting the enumer-
ators in the larger geographical
divisions of the United States have
influenced and guided United States
Census Director Durand in the adop-
ton of a classification of Commentators
rates of compensation, within the
limits prescribed by the United States
Census law enacted by Congress.
The different classes of rates viii. be
so applied that in general the average
enumeration will earn substantially
the same actual amount in one district
as in another, even though the popu-
lation may be much sparser in one
than in the other. with other con-
ditions also different.
The rate will range from SIS to Sc per
day for the enumeration of the rural
areas outside Of cities and towns.
Six dollars is the highest rate autho-
rized by law.
This announcement was made by
Census Director Durand, in order to
counteract the deterrent effect upon
applications for enumerators' places
in the far West and Southwest states
of the widely circulated and erroneous
statement that per capita rates of pay
were : to be given in the sparsely
populated regions named.
In this connection the Director has
issued to the census supervisors a de-
tailed statement of the classification
OF rates adopted for the compensation
of enumerators in the Thirteenth Gen.
sus commencing April Is next.
There are three general rates-the
per capita, the mixed, and the per
diem.
The first and second general rates
have five subdivisions each.
The per diem rates range from So to
$3.50, "a, $3.50, IS, $3.50 and Sc, and
are to be paid for a day of eight
hours work.
For enumerators on the per capita
basis, which will be that most widely
used, the pay for each inhabitant is:
Glass A, 2 cents; class 3, q cents
class G, 3 cents; class D, 81 cents; and
class 3, 4 cents. Such enumerators
will also be paid for each farm as
follows: Glass A, 20 cents: class B,
221 cents; class G, Is cents; class D,
III cents; and class E, 30 cents. These
rates are in each case cents or more
higher than those paid in 1900, when
the range was from Is to 20 cents.
For each establishment of productive
| industry the rate for each class is 80
cents. For each barn and Enclosure
| containing live stock not on farms,
the pay is 10 cents for each class.
Under the mixed rate, which is a
combination of the per capita and the
per diem, there are five subcIasses
alphabetically arranged, and the per
diem is: Glass F 81; G, sl.25; H. ST. so;
[, s1.72, and j, So. For each inhabi-
tant the pay is: Glass F, cents; G.,
q cents; H, q cents: I, q cents; and
j, ) cents. For each farm: Glass F,
Is cents; G, IT. cents: Fl, III cents: I
and J, 20 cents each. For each
establishment of productive industry
the rate is 20 cents for each class.

MEAT BOYCOTT.
Labor Unions Join the Movement.
Determined 10 Force Down Cost

al Boycott.

A movement has been started among
union labor men to organize boycott
in the national capital against the
meat dealers.
1t is proposed that the $4,000 mem
bers of local labor organizations sign
a pledge that after the word is given
they will refrain from eating meat for
80 days.
This is the plan of Dr. E. L. Sharf,
organizer and president Of the N alton
al Antitrust Food league.
The boycotts now in progress in a
number of the western cities were not
counseled by this organization, but
got beyond control of the league.
In Boston plans are to be made for
a great mass meeting at which the ex-
pertinent will be inaugurated. The
movement is expected to spread rapid
ly. In Chicago the State Federation
Of Women's Clubs will join the "meat
strike, " which is rapidly getting the
country in it's grip, if many members
of that organization can bring it
about.
Despite the growth Of membership Of
the meat boycott movement in Cleve-
land to 10000 pledged, the price of
sirloin steaks advanced cents.
Pork chops, which declined 2 cents
last Wednesday, remain at the same
figure, while pork roast sells over the
retail counters at Is cents. Porter
house steaks range from % to % cents
according to grade. and storage eggs
are priced at 28 cents the dozen. At
the stockyards it is declared the strike
against meat products is giving no ap-
prehension. Buyers are simply fol-
lowing the market, it is said. Anti
meat pledges continue at the rate of
several thousand day.
Following are the states in which
boycOtts against meat have been star
ted. These boycotts are spreading
rapidly:
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Hi
nois, Iowa, Maryland, Delaware, Con-
necticut, Michigan, Nebraska, Kan
sas, Missouri, Wisconsin.
Labor unions in most Of these states
are leading the boycott movement.

one proprietor announced that in ad.

meats, he would introduce a special

ference to the regular menu. Other
hotel keepers quickly voiced their ap-
prevail of the plan and say they expect
to cut their daily meat orders in half.
Thousands of men affiliated with the
trades council signed the boycott reso.

railway company joined the boycott
without waiting for their local to
adopt the resolution.

Backer's Wonderful Work Wins
Game For New UIm.

In decisive manner which surprised
even their most ardent followers, the
local high school basketball team
defeated the Blue Earth II. S. team by
score of 16 to II on the Blue Earth
floor last Friday night. Dishearteneo

game to do their very best. Il was
their first game against a frst-class
team and they proved that they rank.
with the best. The playing floor was
long, but very narrow and it was i'm
possible to use much teamwork. Both
teams guarded closely which accounts
for the low score. Although the Blue
Earth boys were taller than our boys.
they were not fast on their feet: neither
could they secure the ball as easily as
the New Ulm boys did.
New Ulm began the game with a.
rush, Amann shooting basket only
few seconds after the toss-up. Then
Blue Earth secured point on foul
and for l6 minutes the contest ragged
with a score of 2 to |. In the last four
minutes of the first half, Backer shot.
three baskets and the Blue Earth team
added three points SO that the score
was s to 4.
The second half was also New Ulm's
for the ball was in their territory most
of the time. Blue Earth could not
stand the pace. Backer was undoubt-
edly the star of the game, it being his
basket-shooting which won the game.
Fourteen of the sixteen New Ulm
points were credited to him. Blue

goals. the rest Of their points resulting
from fouls. The New Ulm boys were
accorded excellent treatment and are
enthusiastic over the Blue Earth High
School. Everyone admitted that the
