ling our population. In 1880 we
had only 5,375 and in 1870 only
1929.
1t is reported that Walnut Grove
showed a slump" of nearly 100 in
its population of five years ago.
Wabasso, according to the enumer-
ator, has shown a population of a
few less than 400. Gains have been
made to the county by the new
towns of Clements, Milroy and Lu-
can.
The official census will probably
not be given out before July 10Th,
and in the meantime the enumera-
tors who have not made up their
final reports are advised to hurry
them to Supt. Wright.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1905-07-05

would show a population of over
1000. Every house in Redwood
Falls is occupied, while practically
every vacant room in business
blocks is also taken. Five years
ago this was not the case, and the
guessers based their estimates on
these conditions. Enumeration Tom
Warner has made a most careful
canvas OF the city, getting on his
list all actual residents OF the city
who were absent during most of
June, and also taking those children
who were absent attending colleges
and universities. He commenced
early on the morning of June 1st,
and gathered in all of the teachers
of the public schools who were in
the city on that day. He is conf
dent that not an actual resident has
been overlooked. Mr.. Warner took
the census by blocks and be be-
lieves that his system prevented
him missing single resident.
Five years ago the population of
Redwood Falls was 1861, indicat-
ing that in five years we had gained
only about 139, a natural growth in
births alone. In 1890 we had pop
ulation of 1928, showing that we
made heavier gain pro rata be-
tween 1890 and 1900 than during
the FIVE years past.
The population of the county in
1900, in which year the government
took the census, was 1921. The
increase in the II precincts report
ed by Mr.. Wright to this paper,
and in Redwood Falls city, would
Indicate that the county would not
have population of over Is, 900 this
year, or gain of only about 7S9.
In view of the many new towns in
the county since the 1900 census it
would seem as though the increase
should be larger, but it is apparent
that we have lost many people to
northern Minnesota, to the Dako-
tas and to Canada. In 1890 Red
wood county had a population of
1856. and during the ten years fol-
lowing that period we made our
greatest county gain-almost doub-

COL. GREER vICTIMIZED.
Insurance and Mining Man Caught by
Smooth Chicago Race Men.

Col. P. H. Greer, formerly of
Granite Falls, insurance agent for a
long time, and more recently in the
bushes of soliciting subscriptions
for mining stock, was victimized on
the Chicago race track recently. To
all who know Col. Greer the infor-
nation will not be a surprise, as he
is an adventurous cuss, ready to
take up any proposition from bet
ting on horse race to betting on
political candidates, and he has
made considerable of IA success of
the latter-particularlylin the last
gubernatorial campaign when he
piled up several thousand On Coy.
Johnson.
Col. Greer wears the biggest
kinds of diamonds the market
affords. He wears them in his
shirt bosom and on his fingers, and
Eugene Fields poetry on Jack Hav-
erly has been applied to the colo
mel. The Minneapolis Times says,
speaking of the Chicago incident,
says that after COL Greer returned
to Minneapolis from Chicago trip
he met two clever Chicago race
track touts in one of the hotel lob
bies. Talk veered to horse racing
and how hard it was to get the best
of the bookmakers, and one of the
fellows said he had scheme that
was winner, and Immediately
Greer desired to know, The "shark"
informed Greer that he had friend
who was clerk for Jim O'Leary, in
Chicago, and that he got all the win
ners first, and he was willing to
hold out winner after a race was
run until he had a bet down. It
looked easy and Greer was informed
all that would be required was a
little ready money.
The three left Immediately for the
Windy City and as soon as they
arrived Greer was steered to a
room that was supposed to be pool

SLIGHT GAINS in CENSUS
The State Census Will Show That Red
wood County Has But Few
More Than $4,000.
City of Redwood Falls Will Furnish About
0ne-tenth of That Number,
or 1900.

The 1905 census will show that
the city of Red wood Falls will have
a population of a few over 300, and
that Redwood county has a popula-
ton of about Is, 000-very few more
or very few less.
This estimate is based on the re-
turns received at the state census
bureau. While last Friday was the
last day for gathering all of the res
idents of particular precinct the
enumerators, by provision of the
law, are given until next Monday
to complete their schedules and get
them in the hands of George F.
Wright, superintendent of the Gen.
sus bureau.
On last Friday Mr.. Wright phoned
THE GAZETTE that II precincts out
of 40 in the county had made COM
plete returns, and that these pre-
cincts showed a population of s, 682.
Five years ago the same precints
showed population of S,3O1, a net
gain of only 291 for the IL precincts.
At that time the city of Redwood
Falls had not been completed and
was not included in the II districts
which Mr.. Wright computed for
this paper.
The city of Redwood Falls will
undoubtedly touch the 1900 mark,
and it is even probably that it will
run dozen or more over that fig
ure. But the hopes and expecta-
tions of large number of guessers
will go glimmering, as it was felt
reasonably certain that the city

THE FOURTH In REDWOOD.

Yesterday-July 4th-was. quiet
ly spent in Redwood Falls, the
more elaborate celebrations in sur
rounding towns having been the
means of drawing a large number
of people from this city to those
towns where the celebrations we're
on the pyrotechnical order.
Those of our citizens who favored
the quieter observance of the day
Witnessed the ball game between
the Wilmots and the MutuaIs at the
Lakeview Park in the morning, and
then with well-flled baskets, drove
or boarded boats, for the park,
where they spent the remainder of
the day. Here there was music by
the band, reading of the declaration
of independence by J Howard Rob-
inson, recitation by Irma Hough-
master, short talk bysDr. Cowgirl
and an Grafton, well-chosen and
well-delivered, by Alex. Jedlicka of
Vesta, young university student.
After this came number of athletic
contests, such as a tug-of-war, races
of various kinds, etc. All present
insisted that they had spent most
delightful day.

men gave the other 81, 200 to bet on
Beldame, which was already re-
ported as the winner of the Subur-
ban at 81 to 1. The dispatches
state that the man left with Greer
was taken suddenly i'll and telling
Greer he would be back Immediate
ly, ducked. Greer is waiting yet.
1t is thought the bookmaker and
his helper were implicated in the
affair. Greer notified the police,
but no trace of the two has been
secured.

LAWYER, SCHOLAR AND EX-
OFFICIAL COURT OF
APPEALS DIES.

We regret to announce that Mr..
Chas. r. Williams, a we'll read
lawyer, scholar and, for several
years, an attache of the Court of
Appeals, was found lying uncon-
scious on the river bank, below

ing consciousness.
Mr.. Williams was the only son
of the late Prof. Z. r. Williams,
for many years the President of
Sayre Female College, of Licking
ton. He was a brilliant and
promising young man, but failing
health dimmed his prospects and
finally brought death. He was
81 years of age.
We have known Mr.. Williams
for forty years and admired him
for his genial and cultivated mind
and manners.
He was a warm personal friend
of Judge Geo. DuRelle from boy :

Fayette county, and Judge Dr.
Relic secured his appointment to
the position he held under the
Appellate Court. He was an ex-
ceedingly proud and sensitive
man, and shrank from making his
needs known.

CURES CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
One Weeks Use OF Hyomei Did More Than
Six Months Treatment by Specialists.

In the treatment of deafness which
is often a result of catarrh Hyomei
acts almost Immediately upon the
infiamed membrane and theIhearing
begins to return. A few days treat
ment will bring relief, and in three
or four weeks, according to the
severity of the case, a cure will be
accomplished.
Miss Meeks of ,Mattewan,l N. Y,
says: "Hyomei is truly wonderful.
| have used it but short time and
see a great change in my condition
My hearing is improving rapidly, and
| had no idea l would improve so
rapidly in so short time. My breath
which was so offensive to my self and
others, has lost it's bad oder entirely.
| have spent great deal of money
with catarrh specialists and can truly
say that six months of their treat
ment is not equal to one month of
Hyomei."
John E. DAILY is selling Hyomei up
on the unusual plan of agreeing to re-
turn the money if the medicine does
not cure.
A complete outfit costs only sl.0O
and consists of IAN inhaler that can
be carried in the vest pocket, medi-
cine dropper and a bottle of Hyomei
The inhaler will last lifetime and
there is enough Hyomei for several
weeks treatment. Additional bottles
of Ryomei can be procured for so
cents. Compare this small expense
with the fees charged by specialists and
then remember that if HYomei does
not cure john. E. DAILY will return
your money.
