Up in Denver the ensus enunera-
tors have finished their work, show
ing n population of 100 200. At the
same time a census taken by the Den
YER Chamber of Commerce showed
something over 100000 and the post
master has lists showing IS5 600 peo-
ple are erved by mail carriers and
he estimates that at a ten thous-
and people are in the city who re-
ceive their mail otherwise. AS the
result of this variance, the official
enumerators will check over the lists
furnished by the Chamber of Com
nerce and the correct population of
Denver will probably be secured for
the official report. Something of the
kind bould have beer done here in

lation of Roswell is quite likely to be
less tnan the real population. and
