The Twin Cities.

The Twin Cities.
The agony that has existed over the
comparative population OF st. Paul and
Minneapolis was settled by the official
bulletins of the secretary of state, which
gave Minneapolis 1872, 1888 and St. Paul

excess of $4,000 of Minneapolis over ST.
Paul is confirmed in the exact figures
of 52,541. Also that while Minneapolis
in five years has increased 27,645, ST.
Paul increased but 7,lS6; that is, while
St. Paul has increased So per cent,
Minneapolis has increased very nearly
Is per cent. The most sanguine had
