This shows healthy increase, but a
slow one. From 1920 to 1880 the popula-
ton increased more than threefold In
the next ten years it jumped at rapid
rate, and from 1910 to 1850 it increased
more than 5,000 while between 1850
ing the ensuing ten years the increase
was small but in the decade ending
with 1880 the jump was nearly 5000.
From 1880 to 1890 the increase was less
than 1000, and now, in the decade just
ended we have added 1856 more, not
withstanding large losses through re-
movals to suburban towns on both sides
of the river.
Those who will be inclined to find
fault with our slow increase during the
past ten or twenty years should remem-
Der that the city limits of Wheeling
have not been extended for quarter
of a century, when the old town OF
South Wheeling, now the Eighth ward,
was brought in. In other respects our
corporation lines have remained as
they were during the Civil War. Most
other American cities have expanded
by taking in suburban towns, but we
have not followed this general policy.
With a restricted area and little room
for expansion except upon the Island,
we have increased our population S,l4l
In twenty years, while at least three or
four thousand former residents have re-
moved into the suburbs and cannot pc
counted in the population of the city
proper. Family after family have re-
moved to Martins Ferry, to Aetnaville,
to Bridgeport, to Kirkwood, to Bellaire,
to Benwood, to Fulton, to Pleasant Val
ley and the territory generally lying
east of the city, which for miles is now
almost one continuous town, and yet
we have grown more than one-eighth
in ten years. That isn't half bad, and
the figures, upon reflection, will be gen.
orally satisfactory.
The population by wards, given out
yesterday, was as follows:

AS stated above, it is not possible to
make comparisons by wards with the
census of ten years ago, because Of the
changing of ward lines. There has been
a general growth, however, most no.
ticeable, perhaps, on the Island, where
the population has jumped at a lively
rate.

but little attention was paid to the

forced upon the party by MIR. Hanna

of the brutal purpose to hold our H.
