The taking of the census has revealed the fact that our little city is growing with leaps and bounds, and will socn, if it is not already, take the place of first among the towns of Southeastern Alaska. Another thing iu this connec- tion may we'll be taken into considera- tion, and that is that the population of Douglas is more stable than perhaps any other city in the district. Douglas is city of homes, and while her people arc for the most part workers, that very fact takes them out of the class of gripsack citizens, who have only to grab their satchel and they have moved.
