CONTRACT is LET.
To j. n. Florence for New Country
Club House.

The contract for the new Country club
house on College Hill was let yesterday
to j. II. Florence. Seven or eight bids
were sent in and some of the bidders
were very close. Bids were called for
once before, but It was decided TO make
some change in the plans. While these
changes lower the cost considerably, it
is thought by the members Of the club
that the building will be even more con-
venient than if the former plans had been
followed. The porch. which is the big
feature of a club house, will be larger
and it is said the building will present a
more artistic appearance. The contract
let Yesterday calls for an immediate be-
ginning and the completion of the build
ing within sixty days.

7.O77 In TWO YEARS
Population Has Increased One
Fourth Since 1901
ASSESSORS REPORTS IN
City's Population at Present Is
31,549

Yesterday City Assessor Jackman fin
ished the enumeration of the city and
his report shows a remarkable increase
in population in the past two years. The
books show the population of the city at
the present time to be 31.549, an increase
Of 7,077 persons since the time at which
the enumeration was made in 1901, and an
increase of 1856 in the past year. The
reports Of the year 1901 show the popua-
ton to have been 24,471, and that of 1902,
Is, 163. The increase since 1901 is almost
. per cent Of what the total population
was at that time and large enough TO
make a good-sized town in itself. This
large increase is largely due to the mmi
grafton of many eastern people to the
city. With the coming Of prosperous
times and good property values many per-
sons from the east moved their families
here and made this city their permanent
homes OF this total population 1888 are
children OF school age, nearly all of
whom attended during the school year.
The report also shows an increase in the
number of employed by the different fac
tories OF the city, an increase in the
amount Of wages paid; in fact, it shows a
more prosperous condition all over the
city. Following is the report as filed out

this no doubt the firemen will win,
as of right they should, for it is
putting too much OF a restraint on
the right OF an individual. There
is no law in the land winch can COM
pei a laborer to work ii he does not
want to, and IL should be so in the
case of a collection OF individuals.
If the firemen have grievances of
which they cannot secure an adjust
ment except by quitting work they
should not be denied it. At the
same time the firemen should in no
way prevent the railroads from the
operating their lines with whatever
assistance they can secure. 1t is too
often the case that strikers willfuIiy
prevent public business being carried.
on in order to gain their point. This
is where they exceed their rights as
