According to the Denver Republic
can the vote Of Colorado Mt the last cleo
ton WAS 9l.72l. In 1881 II was ~. ig2.
In $50 IL was 81. So. These figures are
an index to the growth Of the State.
The per ccntagc Of increase between
1850 and 1851 was small fraction in
excess Of ~ per cent. The increase of
Isss over 1851 was n small fraction less
than IS per cent. The increase in the
population from 1850 To 1851 showed
about the same per cent. OF gain as the
increase In the vote. There was very
little. IL any. increase in the population
from 1854 TO issj. and in the latter year
the number of Colorado's inhabitants
was shown TO be 2t2.OlO. Calculating
from this IL is fair to conclude that the
population OF the State Is now about
$4,000. Pursuing still further on this
line We are justified In predicting that
the census Of 1850 will show Colorado to
have IA population OF about 100000.
which is double what 1t had In 1850. II
between 1890 and the end Of the CEN
tury the population Of the state he
doubled. 1t Will amount in 1900 to s0O.-
600. This would indicate a population
for Denver at the end Of the century Of
about 2s5.0OO.
