THE JOHNSON’S CHILL & fEVER TONIC CO..
SAVANNAH. GEORGIA.
Walterboro S. C,. Octolw 9, 1908.
On August 30, ’08. I contracted cold and developed Grippe and
was laid up fiive weeks. My bronchial tubes were badly af
fected. which caused me to cough continually and prevented
my sleeping at night. I tried all the old remedies which usually
gave me relief but failed.
Johnson’s Chill and Fever Tonic was recommended to me as a
guaranteed cure for grippe and colds and 1 was pursuaded to
try it. After taking it according to directions for one week, I
found myself entirely cured of my cold and grip|K\ and my sys
tem in first-class condition. I regard it one of the best medi
cines I have ever used ir my family and can cheerfully recom
mend it to anyone suffering from a like trouble or general
debilitated system. H. G. BENTON

ENUMERATORS’ RATES
CENSUS DIRECTOR DURAND
—UStlES A CLASS1F4CAI10N OF THL
CENSUS TAKERS.
the per diem, there are five subclas
ses alphabetically arranged, and the
per diem is: ('lass F. $1; G. $1.2.'). H.
ESTAB I, Sl.Ta; and J. $2. For each
inhabitant the pav he Class F :*
Washington. I). C. January 22.
The varying w age scales in different
parts of the country and the differ
ences in the nature and extent of
tho-local ilifficulties confronting the
enumerators in the larger goog-
rahica! divisions of the United
States have influenced and guided
United States Census Director
Durand in the adoption of a classifi
cation of enumerators’ rates of com.
pensation. within the limits prescrib
ed by the United States Census law
enacted by Congress.
The different classes of rates will
be so applied that in general the
average enumerator will earn sub
stantially the same actual amount
in one district as in another, even
though the population may be much
sparser in one than in the other,
with other conditions also different.
Regard is paid to tfte fact that
prevailing wages and salaries are
higher in some parts of the country
than in others, but, as.de from this,
the Director’s aim is to adjust the
rates so as to. make the earnings' of
enumerators substantially uniform.
Where ihe per capita rates would
not give sufficient pay, the per diem
rates are prescribed. The rates in
general will bo so adjusted as to
give a slightly higher average
amount to the enumerators than
they received in 1900.
Per diem rates of pay will be paid
to the census enumerators in the
sparsely settled rural districts of
Arizona. California, Colorado, Idaho,
Montana, Texas, Utah, Washington,
and W yoming.
The rate w ill range from $5 to $6
per dav for the enumeration of the
rural areas outside of cities and
towns. Six dollars is the highest
rate authorized by law.
The Director realizes that in many
distnets of the far West it will be
impossible to secure competent men
to act as enumerators at a rate of
compensation less than that being
paid for ordinary classes of work in
tile same area. Were enumerators
in such districts paid only on the per
(Japita basis, their compensation
would be unreasonably low’.
The enumerators in the thinly in
habited countrs sections of North
Dakota. South Dakota, Nebraska,
and Kansas also will Ik* com|K*nsated
on a per diem basis. Certain ditli-j
cult or sparse!; settled enumeration
districts in o'her states will be in-
cluded among those to which the
per diem rates will apply, as the
conditioi - of the enumeration will
be such that an enumeiator could i i
not make lair earnings at any of the (
per ca >ita rates established.
Thi-. announcement was made by .
Census Director Durand to-day, in
order to counteract the deterrent
effect tipon applications for enumer
ators’ places in the far West and
Southwest states of the w idely cir
culated and erioneous statement
that per capita rates of pay were to
be given in the sparsely populated
regions named.
THE CLASSIFICATION OF RATES.
In this connection the Director
has issued to the census supervisors
a detailed statement of the classifi
cation of rates adopted for the com
pensation of enumerators in the
Thirteenth Census, commencing
April 15 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 |>er diem rates range from $3
to $3.50, $4. $4.50, $5, $5.50, and $6,
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 pav for each inhabitant is.
Class A. 2 cents; class B, 2i cents;
class C, 3 cents; class D, 3A cents;
cents; G. 2A cents; H, 2A cents; I, 2*
cents; dnd .1,3 cents. For each farm;
Class F. 15 cents; (i. 17£ cents; H, 17*
cents; I and .1. 20 cents each. For
each establishment uf productive in
dustry the rate is 20 cents for each
0
class.

Mr. Editor. I can scarcely express
in words my pleasure derived from
the meeting of my friends in Colle
ton. It seems ages instead of months
since I left them all. but my hours
of loneliness during my absence are
doubly compensated for by my cor
dial welcome at home. Many happy

universe to compare with “home
sweet home and mother.”

old Press for such a long while, but

easily forget if I do some times neg
lect. I have been anticipating ever
since my return the pleasure of read

as instructive pieces from Rutfin

that our little writer has deserted us,

YOUNG HARRISON ATTACKED
NEAR GARTER S FORD.
Smoaks, Jan. 18. Special:- While
on his way home from Lodge with a
load of freight at about 1 o’clock.
January 15, Zarkey Harrison, young
est son of J. Z. Harrison, was at
tacked at the foot of Red Hill, near
Carter’s Ford church, by an unknown
man, who was disguised by wearing
a shawl over his face and gloves on
his hands. The man jumped from
the bushes and caught hold of the
wagon. He told the boy to stop,
but instead he put whip to the horse.
He then caught the boy aud started
to cut his throat, l»ut he threw up
his left hand, causing the knife to
go through it instead.
J. Z. Harrison and C. H. Smith
tracked his assailant through ih?
fields by way of Colleton down to
Williams. Finally they secured Mr.
Ryon’s bloodhounds and took them
to the scene about 10:30 o’clock at
night The dogs trail.d the man

ators w ill also be paid for each farm
as follows: Class A, 20 cents; class
B, 22* cents; class C, 25 cents; clats
D, 27* cents; and class E. 30 cents.
These rates are in each case 5 cents
or more higher than those paid in
1900, when the range was from 15 t
20 cents. For each establishment of
productive industry the rate for
each class is 30 centa. For each
bam and inclosure containmg live
stock, not on farms, the pay is 10
cents for each class.

were robbery, and there would prob
ably have been a lynching had the
rascal been caught.
