ishoiild lie the duty, moreover, of every
veteran soldier or sailor to see that the
enumerator is placed in possession of
the necessary information concerning

the hands of his wife or other member

also that there may lie no doulit as to

the census enumerator. Tnat there may
he no question as to the points to be
covered by this memorandum, it may
he well to state that the special inquir
ies to bo made concerning veterans of
the civil war include the mitno, the
company, and the regiment or vessel
ill which they served, their late rank,
the dute of enlistment and discharge,
the length of service in years, mouths,
and days, and their present post-otlico
address. Whore a soldier or sailor re-
cuiistod or served in morn t han one or
ganisation or vessel, lie should bo very
careful to give the term of service in
•such instance, and to cover each enlist
ment. In giving the organization enro
should lie taken to distinguish the arm
of the service, as infantry, cavalry, ar
tillery, etc., aud if a person served mi
ller iiu assumed name, liis statement
Mliouid lie made to cover both the name
under which he served and the true
name by which ho is now known.
Veterans of the war generally will
rceoguir.o and appreciate the value of
this special census to them, and they
should aid t lie census enumerators in
getting true statements in every way
liossible. Without their co-opprntion
correct results cannot he reached. This
iiersonal appeal is made to them, there
fore, in the hope that tliulr attention
may he specially directed to the impor
tance of tlie work and the necessary in
formation may he promptly supplied to
the census enumerator when lie culls

New York Hun.
We called attention about six weeks
Ago to ( lie amazing programme of in
quisition which lias been prepare^) hy
the Superintendent of tlie Census. Wo
are glad to observe that there is likely
to be a general protest againt the out
rage which the Census Bureau intends
to perpetrate in tliennmeof the United
States Government.
The census enumerators will start
out on their rounds next Monday,
equipped with a schedule of thirty
questions. Among other objects of in
quiry, they are instructed to ascertain
from every citizen and inhabitant of the
United States:
No. 22. Whether suffering from acuto
or chronic disease, witli name of disease
ami length of t ime nlllieted.
No. 23. Whether defective in mind,
sight, henring, or speocli, or whether
crippled, maimed or deformed, with
iiatno of defect.
No. 24. Whether a prisoner, convict,
homeless child, or pauper.
No. 2ft. Supplemental seliodule and
page. (Answers to inquiries, 22, 23 ami
24 are to lie answered on special sched
ules provided for the purpose).
No. 28. Is the homo you live in hired,
or is it. owned by t he head or by a mem
ber of t lie family ?
No. 27. If owned by bond or member
of family, is the homo free from mort
gage incumbrance ?
No. 28. If the head of family is a far
mer, is the farm which he cultivates
hired, or is it owned by him or by a
member of his family?
No. 29. If owned hy bond or member
of family, is tlie farm free from mort
gage incumbrance?
No, 30. If the homo or farm is owned
by head or member of family, ami
mortgaged, give tlie postofllco address
of owner.
We advise every citizen and inhabi
tant who respects himself and is dis
posed to resent nn impertinent, unwar
ranted, and illegal intrusion into his
private affairs, to refuse flatly to ans
wer any of tlie questions hero quoted
from t lie schedule. Not one of them iH
within the eonstitutional scone of tlie
Federal census. Not one of them is
justillod by necessity or propriety. The
census takers have no more business to
Investigate the chronic maladies, the
bodily defects, and the private account
hooks of the people living under this
free Government than they have to in
quire into our loves and hatreds, our
moral weaknesses, our secret sorrows.
It would lie just ns legitimate and legal
a proceeding for tlie enumerators to
present themselves witli pencil and
cardboard and to demand, under a pen
alty of a $30 line, truo answers to tlie
inquiries hero subjoined;
‘‘If married, do you really love
your
wife (or husband) or do you only pre
tend to ?”
“What secret doubts, if any, do you
entertain relative to tlie existence of a
Supremo Being?”
"Is there anything in your past lifo of
which you are now ashamed, and if so,
what is it ?”
"What is tho amount of your indebt
edness to your tailor, your dressmaker,
your butcher, your milkman? Doos
your next door neighbor pay his debts?”
We do not advise tlie violent eject
ment of tlie census agent who demands
of you tlie nnnie and the stage of pro
gress of tlie chronic malady which you
have perhaps kept as a secret, from your
family and all the world save your phy
sician. Tlie enumerator is only obeying
his orders. It is not uecessnry to kick
down tho front steps the stranger who
officially and cnlmly interrogates you as
to the physiological nnd mental imper
fections of yourselt, your wife, nnd
your children. It is only necessary to
refuse point-blank tlie information de
sired in the interest of statistical
science nnd demanded in tho name of
tho law, and to send tlie enumerator
about his business. His business is to
count the people for tho purpose of ap
portioning Representatives in Congress
and direct taxes. Ho has no more right
to require answers to the questions quo
ted above than has tlie man who goes
around canvassing for a directory.
If tho enumerator, still acting under
his instructions warns you that you
will be tlnod $30 for refusing to disclose
your chronic maladies, ycpir physical de
fects ami the private business affairs of
your landlord, laugh at him.

Sum i; days ago Hon. J. B. Hunnicutt
invited Commissioner Henderson to
meet him iu joint debate at Macon.
The Commissioner declined, and gave
as a reason for his declination that the
duties of his office demanded all of his
time. The correspondence was pub
lished, and in a day or so Mr. Ilunni-
cutt, received a communication signed
by two hundred citizens of Atlanta in
viting him to speak in that city last
night. This appointment was made by
Mr.Hunnicutt’s friends to accommodate
tho Commissioner, though we have not
learned whether lie saw (it to avail him
self of the opportunity so convenient
ly arranged for him.
Mr. Hunnicutt on the Stump.
Macon Telegraph, 2.1th tnat.
A very excellent address was deliver
ed yesterday morning at the Court
house by Hon. J. B. Hunnicutt, who is
a candidate for the offices of Commission
er of Agriculture.
The audience which collected to hear
Mr. Hunnicutt was composed entirely
of gentlemen who have devoted their
lives to agricultural pursuits. Almost
every man in the audience has achieved
success in the course of life lie lias
adopted, and it would be difficult to es
timate the vast number of votes that
these representative men can influ
ence.
After Mr. Hunnicutt had been intro-
duced by Hon. R, A. Nlsbett lie com
menced at once in a clear and forcible
style to explain his views on the agri
cultural questions of tho day.
In his opening remnrks Mr. Hunnicutt
stated that in liis opinion the prosperity
of Georgia depends more upon who tills
tho position of Commissioner of Agri
culture than on any other State officer.
Ho then proceeded to show t hat t lie far
mers are in anything but a prosperous
eondit ion, and attributed the unsat isfac
tory condition of affairs to the high tar
iff, which absorbs all that is made. One
of tho principal local causes for ill suc
cess, Mr. Hunnicutt thought, was tho
lack of education which is being receiv
ed by the farmers’ children. On this
subject he said:
"We have schools for doctors, lawyers,
preachers nnd mechanics where they
cun lit themselves specially for their
‘ft
callings, but whore cun tho farmer boy
get furnished and equipped for his pro
fession ? Shall ho forever carry the
pumpkin in one end of tho sack and
the rock in tho ottior?
"We need nnd must have a first-class
agricultural college where our boys can
learn from books and lectures what the
scientillc world knows about farming,
at’d then see in the laboratory the laws
of nature unfold their secrets; and then
go out and see the relation of fertiliza
tion to plant growth, and thorough cul
ture to abundant harvests, demonstra
ted in tlie earth.
“And in addition to this, lot oncli boy
have liis plat of ground, and say to him,
we furnish the seed, wo furnish tlie fer
tilizers and tho tools, we furnish all the
information in our power, now, you
mako your own experiments. Thus en
courage comparison of experiments and
generous rivalry between tho boys nnd
you will send out a lot of truiuod far
mers who will beeomo centers of light,
in their respective communities, such as
will make a revolution in Georgia farm
ing hi twenty years. Again, from this
editor you will furnish teachers who
can tench our children who are unable
to go to tho college.”
After showing some of tlie fatal re
sults of lack of education Mr. Hunnicutt
gave tho othor sido of the picture, and
told what could bo accomplished in this
most favored lnnd by a trained intellect.
After giving a number of interesting
statistics Mr. Hunnicutt showed what
might have boon accomplished by Mr.
Henderson during tho olevon years ho
hns held tho office and also wlmt lie lmd
done.
He concluded by saying:
all tna
In the name of all that’s dear to
Georgia farmers, let’s try a change. In
this office, fellow-citizens, it would be
my pride and niy pleasure to help you
write Georgia’s name high up on the
scroll of fame, the pride of her citizens
nnd tlie (Jueon of the South.”
Monroe Advertiser, 27th Inst.
In the discussion, the speaker stressed
tlie present depression among farmers,
among which tie classed the tariff sys
tem, and the want of facilities for tlie
agricultural training of our boys, etc.
Mr. Hunnicutt’s points were pointed,
practical, pithy, and awakening to
those who are not and liave not posted
themselves as to wlmt ought to bo done,
and what can be done for agricultural
progress and advancement. lie is not
only possessed of a cultured mind, but
is a practical, thinking man who has
stored up a good fund of practical
knowledge. He is a practical and most
successful farmer, who has studied
thoroughly nnd well the laws of nature
ns applied to tlie soil, and knows
whereof lie spoaks when discussing the
subject of agriculture. Mr. Hunnicutt’s
views, ns set forth in his speech, Friday,
touching the management of tho Agri
cultural Department of Georgia, are
based on solid common sense, the
strongest wheel in man’s practical and
mental make-up.
Special to Macon Telegraph.
Forsyth, May 24.—Hon. J. B. Hun-
nicutt of Turin, candidate for Commis
sioner of Agriculture, addressed the
people of tliis county hero on yesterday.
Mr. Hunnicutt, among other things, sa'id
that tlie office of Commissioner of Ag
riculture in Georgia had not done for
tlie farmers of Georgia what they had a
right to expect and demand of it, and
charged tlie fault to tho present incum
bent.
Mr. Hunnicutt’s speech was dignified
and manly and.captivated all who heard
it. His platform is a good one, aud one
on which every good man should stand,
and no one could have presented it with
better effect than Mr. Hunnicutt did.
One tiling is certain, ail who heard him
on yesterday indorsed him thoroughly,
«nu numbers yesterday who were Hen
derson men are to-day enthusiastic sup
porters of Mr. Hunnicutt, and unless
things change greatly from where they
now stand, Mr. Hunnicutt will undoubt
edly carry this county.

He isa very impressive speakerand car
ries the crowd with him. He converted
every Henderson man present, nnd left
the boys solid for Hunnicutt.
His speech makes n Firmer think
more of himself and liis calling. He has
evidently studied the subject and
strikes a responsive chord in tlie hearts
of liis hearers.
His criticism of the past management
