The new directory of the county, by II.
l.. Polk 4 Co, was distributed yesterday.
The delay in the work was caused bv the
failure of Seattle printing company,
which tied up the copy since last Jan.
uary. The directory may be all right for
the Harbor cities, but as a county affair
| it is deficient For instance, Cosmopolis
is credited with 1000 population, and
but 81 names are given; Ocosta is repre-.
sented by names, although the former
directory contained SS. Porter has but
3 names, Satsop IA, and Summit 8, while
the previous book gave them credit with
Al, 1l3 and IS respectively. What pur-
ports to be list of the taxpayers of the
county omits more names than it gives,
and is very misleading.
