A~BERDEEN's GROWTH
The City Population Greatly Increased
Since 1000

The phenomenal growth Of Aberdeen
within thelaSt two years is best at
tested by the multitude OF new resi-
dences put up during the last twelve
months. And still the available
house-room of the town is s. made
ouate that scores of new residences
are still being planned and every day
new ones started. Many families
move in to secure better schooling
for their children and the expanding
business Of the city constantly adds
to the population.
City assessor, Fred D. Campbell, has
made careful enumeration Of the &C
tual residents Of the city, while list
ing assessable porperty, and feels GER
tain that with the many he was I'M
able to find, roomers and Others tenn
porarily absent, the population is very
close to 1000. The actual increase
since 1909 is a trife over 81 per cent.
Below are the figures by wards.

The wise ones say, when
Hearst's candidacy is mentioned
that he can not be nominated.
Perhaps not, but let his admirers
and friends go on organizing
Hearst clubs for a year to come
as they have during the last month
from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
and the gentleman who now so
CURLY pass upon his chances for
the nomination will give the prop
osition much more serious con
sideration.
The exposure OF the iniquitous
coal combine brought about by
Mr.. Hearst's personal efforts is a
most remarkable example Of what
a private citizen can do.
