L"p In eastern Oregon Is an enumerator;
ft'ho Is a Democrat and who has been,
during the past' few days, the recipient
of many experiences. He Is. "personally,
a great friend of: the supervisor, and
because of his qualification" "he was
seked to be one of the enumerators, and
paid he did not- want ihe Job. , He at
last said that, in case of great need, or
In case there happened to be a district j
that no other man would cover, as a
matter of "prBbnarTrlel.a8l.lirjSerr0BTff"
take a district. He took one, and he
tells about it in the following letter to
the supervisor: . , ' i , ,v
Tear Beach -1 received the: sphclal
Irrigation blanks, as my district la arid
except where reclaimed. ' . '
"l-'our Irrigation districts In the .dis
trict I , cannot, as the district lies,
complete one district before taking. an
other, hut am keeping precincts sepa
rate; Homes scattered. I walked nine
miles to the Seventeenth precinct to get
half a mile, owing to lack of bridges
across the Powder river. Not a hotel
or public house in the district. Very
difficult to find place to sleep. ,.
"I walked fve miles one night over
the mountains, before finding a place
ti sleep, j Roads are good, . though.
Sometimes I walk three or four miles
Into or out ofmy place to find a ranch
er. A number of places have changed

possible. Have had Borne great experi

A nother day a child grabbed my hat
and threw it Into the watering trough,

baby grabbing It and giving t to the

conformed to the legal length, but were

here, sonny, the man may not like that
but at the same time says about baby,.
Don't he look Just .too sweet and cute
for anything?" 1 .-. ,
"As I know not where I will stay at
nights, I must carry all luggage with
me. I had to work Sunday In order to'
.find some people at home. In order to
do the census work Justice I had to thus
work on the first day of the week. How
should the work be marked, 17th or a

. ' Torelgnera Get Ugly. :''.::,
-In spite of the example made of N. P.
Sorenson, there are yet others. In Port
land who are ugly when the census man
comes around. Yesterday a party of
Hungarians and Bulgarians pleaded Ig
norance of the English languaga and
refused to answer the enumerators. An
Interpreter was secured and at last
one of the men, after warning the In
terpreter , not to tell the enumerator
anything, spoke up In very good Eng
lish and said:
"Tell the enumerator to go to helL
We know, what he wants, but we do not
Intend to answer." 7 These persona will
also be before the United States court
as soon as they can be rounded up by
the marshal's office.
The work in Portland Is progressing
at a : good rate. In several Instances
enumerators have finished their dis
tricts and have been assigned to assist
in the work In districts which are not
so pear completed. . Supervisor Beach
expresses himself as much pleased with
the progress made, and predicts that the
