Seven women innd only two men fisuro on the per i&onncl of the ferierul census board for this city, whose lnbors began Jan. ) 2. Ashland has nine election pre icincts, consequently a like number of ? enumerators. A civil service exam ination determined the qualifications ,jOf the canvassers, and certainly wom ian suffrage was vindicated In - the Uelccttcn on a seven by two basis. iTho men are W. B. Ueebo, retired f merchant, who has joined the bacU- to-the-soil movement, also Kcv. 1). D. ; Edwards, pastor of the Nazarone ichurch. The women Include Mrs. i-Anna Snnford, .Mrs. I.eta Urittsan, t-Mrs. Hugh McKenzie, Mrs. R C. Ste ;; veils, Mrs. Bessie Heath, Miss Mina i Urower, and Miss Luella Bailey. B. I G. Cochran, assistant supertisor of I census f(,T this congressional district. ;has confirmed these appointments as applying to Aphland, also that of H. ; O. Anderson, who 9ill canvass the Nieil creek and Belleview precincts, j Speculation is being indulged in regarding the outcome in this city as far as population figures are con deemed. Ten years ago Ashland was Jin 'the 5000 classification, and citi- zens aro sanguine that the canvass j this year will reveal 6000 or more i Inhabitants. The length of time allo(jcl for the 'enumeration seems to be indetermin .nte, but one can rest assured that the j work will be expedited, and that too I; with thoroness and accuracy in line with federal methods. In the mean time citizens should be in readiness : to supply all information nt first hand. This is a federal census and no political straw vote. Enumera tion of the population is not the only issue Involved. There is a mass of information sought which is some--tthnt bewildering as to detail and certainly overwhelming as to scope. :T1ig government demands all this i dtn, so don't got foxy either thru the 'channels of omission or commission ? In thwarting the mission of tho enu morators in their efforts at securing an "honest count." Moreover there is a penalty liable to be assessed i against those who deliberately refuse 'to afford air information required. : By fnr the better ay is to extend the gljd hand to the enumerators, wi'sh ! lng them a happy Xev Year, and thus all may rest assured that the ' exchango of courtesies will bo mu- ? tual in behnlf of "tho good of the ', service." .
