Paw PAW HAS GROWN.
Population ase Larger than in Census OF
1900.

A. G. Bird, superintendent of the state
census, has furnished The True North
erner the official report of the census of
Paw Paw village as taken last month,
and the population of the village is I747,
of whom S27 are males and 920 females
In 1890, the population was 1891, in
1900 it was 1865.
The present census shows an increase
of 2S2 in the past four years, or 1914 per
cent, which is very satisfactory show
ing indeed, and speaks volumes for the
prosperity of Paw Paw. There has been
nothing in the way of boom, but just
a steady, healthy growth, warranted by
the business activity of the town. There
is no reason at all why the growth should
not continue, and we believe Paw Paw
will surely pass the 1000 mark before
Uncle Sam takes his next census in 1910.
