tives.
Mr.. Hammerschmidt ran into 4

MINNESO TA NEWS.
How We Grow.

MINES ota's leading cities have made
substantial growth during the past
three years, according to statistics
just complied by the census bureau
showing the population based on esti-
mates for the different cities during
the years since decennial census of 1900.
The total for the six leading cities
during 1901 was 47O,OoO and in 1902,
47S, ITO, and during last year the total
was 4s7, At.
Some Of the leading cities made sub
stantial gains during these years and
the population statistics now show
that st. Paul has advanced from 163,-
065 in 1900 to liz, 039 in 1908. Minnea"
polls gains from 9o9, 7ls to 2l4,1ls. The
growth of st. Paul has been steady
each year, jumping up about 5000 each
since her decennial census in 1900.
Duluth has made . gain of about
5000 during the three years. and is
now given population Of 81, 397. Man
kato has increased from II, 500 to I'LL
saltwater has made only q slight gam
Her total in 1900 being given at IL, 31s
and in 1903 at II, $3.50. A gain of nearly
athousand is noted in Winona, the to-
tai in 1900 being given at 19,747, and in
1908 the population was put at 20, 1877.
The growth of all these cities has
been steady during each Year since 1900
The most interesting fact in connec-
ton with the growth of St. Paul Is
that it has thus far since 1870 gained
practically in the same ratio Us during
the period from 1890 to 1900, and if the
same ratio is continued the population
in 1910 should be more tnan 200, 900.
