This liz not true OF Marshalltown.
That city in the last ten years has
shown a gain of about one third in pop
ulation. Waterloo meanwhile has made
a gain of nearly 100 per cent
and today is the more populous
city by over 1000. Are we to under
stand that this comparison of postal re-
iceipts proves Marshalltown the more
active city commercially? We must il
the Republicans test Is the proper one
The fact Is that the volume of post
al receipts depends more upon the ma
ture and direction of cominunity's in
scuStry than upon its volume, While the
test of commercial activity is not postal
receipts but pay rolls in the Industrial
establishments The commercial office
With a pay roll only one per cent of the
factory's may be larger contributor 10
postal receipts. A fraternal society at
Nlarshalltown employing secretary
and two typewriters probably counts
for more with the postoffice department
than the Illinois Central shops at Wat
erloo while doubtless in the matter OF
contribution to postal revenues the
largest industrial establishment In Ced-
ar Rapids and all its employees would
make poor showing in comparison
With the local insurance company and
the order of Railway Conductors This
national organization with Headquarters
at Cedar Rapids is a large contributor

~ makes but slight contribution TO the
Guys commercial activity. Az Du-
spuque is the chief Industrial city Of
iowa, employing more factory hands
stnan any other town in the state, and is
the headquarters of no fraternal So
sciety, 1t is to be expected that 1t will

Iralr to this city. 1t is true that the To-
cation OF the headquarters Of insurance
companies add materially to the postal
receipts. in the case of Marshalltown ait
least they are not responsible for the
rank OF THE city. 1t should be borne
IN mind that Marshalltown lost one OF
lts insurance companies by consolida-
slloh With: Minnesota concern a few
months ago, but in the face of this fact
mat postal receipts during the past
quarter are the largest in the history of
the local office and greatly in excess Of
nose OF the preceding quarter. The
Tines statement to the effect that
Waterloo has 1000 more people than
Marshalltown is not true as IS evi-
denced by the new and careful
census recently taken. and which
was not padded in the least. The
