ENUMERATORs ON THE RANGES

By Them Instead OF
Special Agents

Washington. ID. O., February IS. 1910

Bureau authorities to have the Censul
Enumerators take the census Of th'
number and value Of the live stock or
the ranges of the Western States as I
part Of the Thirteenth Decennial Cen
sus. beginning April 10 next.
The Census authorities are convinced
that the enumerators will be able te
gsther these statistics even more expe'
~ditiously. correctly. and economically
than would be possible by special agents
under existing conditions.
This decision was not reached unit
after Assistant Director William +. Will
loughby had returned to the bureau
from q series Of conferences throughout
the West, which were attended by all
the Census Supervisors in the range
States.
The Supervisors in conference recon-
mended that the work be placed in the
hands of the Enumerators. They as
sured the Assistant Director the Emu
merators IAN do 1t. in connection with
the count of population and farms. with
greater dispatch and economy than
could special agents. They stated that
there would be no difficulty whatever if
the live stock owners were made to ap.
preciate the fact that in giving to the
Enumerators the information regarding
their live stock holdings there is abso.
lutely no danger Of it being commune
Gated to county Assessors or Forest Ser
vice officials. The Supervisors stated
that otherwise there might be hesitancy
{ furnish this data for fear it might
mean extra taxation or larger grazing
charges.
Mr.. Willoughby pointed out to them
that under the Act Of Congress provid-
ing for the present census every Super.
visor, Supervisors Clerk, Enumerator,
Interpreter, Special Agent or other m.
ployee must make oath not to divulge
any information contained in the SEIZED.
ules, lists or statements obtained for OF
prepared by the Bureau Of the Census
to any person or persons. He informed
them that the penalty clause in the Law
provides that o violation shall constitute
q misdemeanor, to be published by a fine
not to exceed g. 1000 or by imprisonment
not to exceed two years. or both fine and
imprisonment, in the discretion OF the
Court. The bureau authorities have
always maintained the position that all
information gathered by it was for its
statistical use solely, and would moi
under any circumstances be impaired t.
any other branch of the Government.
