TACOMA. Dec. 25. 1890

TACOMA, Dec. 25, $780,
Many things have combined to make the
past year the most important and prosper
Gus in the history of the city. There has
been in that time a very healthy develop
ment in lines of trade and large increase
in manufactures and in all branches of
industry-an unfailing sign of the sub
stantial progress of all cities. The real es-
tate market has not been so active as last
year, it is true, but the spirit of specula-
ton, rife in former years, has to a large
extent been supplanted by the heavy in
vestment of money in legitimate CONNER
cial enterprises-in public improvements,
in construction of wharyes, street rail-
ways, in erection of buildings, and. in
short, in every variety Of enterprise that
would stimulate the business activity of
the place and add TO its solid growth. The
city is fortunately possessed of large num-
Der OF men of brains, capital and energy,
who believe in the future of the place and
who never hesitate to avow their
faith by their works Tacoma has
remarkably prosperous present and a
certain future. II is now one Of the great
cities of the Northwest, and it will be in
the future. The spirit of enterprise which
pushed the village of ten years ago into a
city OF 50 900 inhabitants pervades its in
habitants still, and is not likely 10 be
weakened by any emergency that can
confront growing young city. The cen
sus of 1850 showed the city to possess q
population of 30, and the census of 1896
showed g., $50

year 1888 was s14,022, 317; in 1889, S26,352, :
6S6; in 1890. S27 ,9i2, 945, ar increase in two
years of Si3, s90, SIS, and in one year of
$3.50, $50 The city's assessment in 1888
was S7,770,6 CPS; in 1889, $40, 249, 211; and in
1880, Sc, l,750. The discrepancy in the
city and county figures for 1890 is doubtless
accounted for in the fact that the city and
county assessments were taken on differ
ent basis.
Real estate sales up to December l had
reached $lS, 80. 926.57, and the total for the
year is about 81, 1900 against $14, SIC, 3s5
in 1859.
The growth of the city is best evidenced
by the number and character OF its build
ings. The record Of improvement of busi-
ness prosperity far exceeds any previous
year. The records in the office of the
building inspector make the following
