The Quincy Uhig estimates the populs-
ton of that city at $4,000. There were
| 900 votes cast at the late election. Esti-
mating the population at nine persons to
every voter, there would be lT,l00. But
the Hhig says that nearly 1000 Germans
came to that city after the election, and so
makes up the $4,000. Quincy was located
in 1926. In the autumn Of 1895, il had 700
inhabitants /; in 1887 it had l,65S; in 1912,
2,6sC.
Estimating the population of Keokuk IN
the same manner, and adding nothing for
subsequent arrivals, there would be 1858.
But there are likely to be a greater number
here who are not voters than in Quincy, as
there is undoubtedly greater proportion Of
the population who have not been here Tong
enough to acquire the right of suffrage. BY
the same rule adopted by our contemporary,
(which is proper enough, perhaps it would
be fair to set down the population OF keokuk
at Ia, 200.
