THE BIG LOG DRIVE.
The Cascade Lumber Company Making
a Success of Driving the River
this Year.

the big log drive of the Cascade
Lumber company has reached the Yak
ina canyon and the logs are being re-
ceived at the mill at the rate of about
1000 per day. The mill pond is full of
logs and they are now being piled out on
the banks. The big drive is said to
contain some l4,0O0,0O0 feet ana the
company will have no trouble this wear
in getting all the logs it can saw. 1t
is now cutting from $4,000 to 10000
feet of lumber a day and has this year
demonstrated that the Yakima river
can be SUCCESSFULLY driven. Last year
it will be remembered, the company had
considerable trouble with its boom at
this place, which would not hold the
logs, but since it was rebuilt there has
been no difficulty and the public will be
glad to learn that the large investment
of the company in this city will prove
ito be remunerative.

POPULATION OF CITY
is Nine THOUSAND
That's What il Figures According to
Folks DirectOry-TheN New
Volume Just Issued.

r. L. Polk & Co.'S directory of North
Yakima for 1904 was distributed TO sub
scribers last week. Last year it gave
the city a population of G,94O, based on
multiplying the number of names in the
directory by 2H. the multiple always
used by the Polk people This year the
directory says the city contains a pop
ulation of "about 1900" But this years
directory contains 1904 names. which,
on the basis of last year. using the
multiple of Pc, the population of North
Yakima would be Just 1000 Seven
thousand five hundred is probably near
er the population of the city. however,
but if it was computed by the Polk peo-
pie last year by using the multiple men
toned, there appears TO be no good rea-
son why it should not be again used in
1904. The directory also contains the
names of 2.5G2 rural residents. which
would make the rural population num-
Der 6.4O5. In other words. the city and
immediate vicinity contains. under the
2H multiple system. Just l5.405 people.
but about 10000 would likely be nearer
the number.
The directory also extends to the
other towns of the county and gives u
great deal of information about this
city that is valuable if accurate. 1t
appears to be fairly so. as far as the
Herald has been able to examine the
book. but the Introductory write-up APP
pears to be stereotyped. True, it fairly
describes the resources and future pros
poets of the city and valley. but is sub
ject to criticism by reason of putting
the facts in exactly the same language.
However. taken altogether and viewing
it from all standpoints, the directory is
a valuable work and contains vast
fund of information. 1t is well CLASH
fed, also. and while it is only the sec
ond year that an official directory has
been issued here. the business men of
the city would feel lost without it.
