622.945 population, outside the cities,
and 3S,6S3 in the cities, which makes a
total of 661,5S3. This will give North

It is not only granted that Fargo is
the metropolis of North Dakota but
the queen city Of the two Dakotas.

1881. In 1914 the city has a popula-
tion Of 1891. a gain Of 2.020 in four
years.
In 1910 Grand Forks had a popula-
ton Of 12,478. In 1914 that city is
credited with a population of 1892, a
gain Of 2.S41 in the same length of
time.
Sioux Falls, which for some time has
been claiming the greatest population
Of any city In the two Dakotas. now
has a population OF 1885, which
makes Fargo larger by LOIS.
Aberdeen has population Of 1919,
making It the fourth city in sibe Of the
two states, Instead of third as some
have claimed. Lead has population
Of 9,100.

the Mexicans. But still there was
practically no show OF force, even to
