NEWS OF OAKLAND, BERKELEY, ALAMEDA, HAYWARD AND SAN LEANDRO
OAKLANDERS MUST
AID CENSUS TAKER
Special Appeal for Cooperation
of the Public Made Through
Chamber of Commerce
OAKLAND, March 14.— A special ap
peal will be made to the people of Oak
land to co-operate with James M.
Burke, director of the census, in com
piling a complete and accurate report
of the population of the city. This ap
peal will be made through the chamber
of commerce and the assistance of the
city and county officials and the mem
bers of the various civic and fraternal
organizations will be enlisted in the
campaign to get the people into line.
At a meeting held in the Union Sav
ings Bank building this afternoon at
the call of Director Wood of the prog
ress and prosperity committee of the
chamber of commerce a number of the
leading merchants and businessmen of
the city pledged themselves to extend
every effort toward facilitating the
work of the census taker.
Director Burke explained that there
would be 77 census districts in the city
a^d that the rating of Oakland with
tiiP federal government for the next 10
yeawi would depend entirely upon the
showing in population made by this
year's census.
"If a full and accurate census is se
cured." said Burke, "I believe that Ala
meda county's population will be large
enough to entitle it to have a repre
sentative in congress Whose attention
will be confined to this county alone.
But in order to make such a showing
it will be necessary for every man,
woman and child in the city and
county to assist the census enumera
tors in every possible way."
A warning was issued to Oaklanders
not to confuse the school census, which
will be held about the same time as
the other one. with the government
census which fixes the official popula
tion of Oakland. The school census is
for the use of the state only, while the
federal census will be sent out to the
world.

Watching for Trouble Pending
Roosevelt's Arrival
NEW YORK, March 14. — "The tame
and inconclusive ending of Senator
Root's brusque descent upon New
York" found expression today in the
cheerful and bustling activity of Chair
man Timothy L. Woodruff, and the
moody countenances of the election
captains, who straggled from state
headquarters to county headquarters
and then sat down in back rooms to
talk it over. Chairman WooJruff was
all smiles. He said: •
•It is felt now that even the most
progressive and ambitious spirits be
lieve that for the present the policy
of those in charge will be to run with
the wind, keeping a sharp eye ahead
for reefs and breakers, pending the ar
rival of Theodore Roosevelt."
Woodruff will remain chairman, but
he does not say himself that he will
run for that place again.
