HOW ARIZONA
BEAT KEOkUK
Won Out at Last Moment After Ten
:. Year Race, Not Decided Until
the Last Mo-
nnent

A little booster item stating that
there was no city as large az Keokuk
in the states Of Arizona, Nevada, New
Mexico and Wyoming, was printed in
last evenings Gate City. 1t was ap-
parently correct at the time it was
written, the information being
taken from the 1910 census, which
gave Keokuk as 14.009 and Phoenix.
Arizona at 11,134; Reno, Nevada, TO-
s67; albuquerque, New Mexico, H.
02o; Cheyenne, 1890.
But the 1920 census knocked the
props from under Keokuk's claim, for
yesterday morning the census bureau
announced Phoenix as having 2s,05s
people, an increase Of $50 per cent,
the result being received by telegraph
a few minutes after the claim had
been set In type. Thus Phoenix won
ont at the last moment. Possibly the
other cities compared with Keokuk
will show great increase when the
official figures are announced and
will be found to have passed Keokuk
in the race during the past ten years,
but the census of 1910 shows that at
that time Keokuk was larger than any
town in the. four western states.
