SOLID, STEADY
IS GROWTH OF
C|TY--26,728
Population Increases 4,O44
Since l91O-Town is Far
Ahead of Lafayette, Behind
Anderson and Muncie.
COUNTY TOTAL next

| While Richmond showed no start
ling growth during the decade since
1910, 1t is the same sort Of growth
the town has had since it's formation,
steady. conservative and solid, with no
inflated "booms'' and no periods of
pronounced depression.
This was the concensuS of city opin-
ion Wednesday, following the an
'nouncement from the census bureau
Tuesday night that the city now has
l26,728 people, an increase of 1877 per
cent over 1910, when it had 22324.
1t was pointed out also, that had
the census taken note of the hundreds
tof men who live in nearby towns and
commute to their work, their families
living out of Richmond, or had the
town been able to house them. the
growth of this same solid character,
would have been shown to be higher.
In Beallview alone, for instance, many
people live who were not counted.
Ranks Above Lafayette.
The city in percentage of growth
franks above Lafayette and Seymour,
dn the returns which have been an
mounced, and below Muncie, New
tcastle and Anderson. 1t has definitely
grown away from Lafayette, which
has 22,456. Anderson and Muncie
have climbed above it, with 36,524
and 29,761 respectively.
According to the school census,
which is regarded as a good criterion,
Richmond may rank about twelfth in
the state when the complete returns
are announced. She ranked eighth
in 1910.
Returns Are Preliminary.
The returns announced Tuesday
might are preliminary, and detailed
and corrected ones will be announced
later, the census bureau said.
Attention also turned Wednesday
to the county's probable population
following the city report. Wayne
county had in 1910, 43,757 people
It. was not regarded probable that
the county would show as large an
increase as the city, as the tendency
during the decade has been for the
country persons to flock to the towns
The county's growth, therefore, may
be very little in the decade.
Other figures are:
Beaumont. Texas, 40,422; increase,
1872, or 95.S per cent (revised fig,
ures).
Amsterdam. N. Y, 33.524; an in.
crease of 2,257, or 10 per cent over
1910.
Glens Falls, N. Y. 1851; increase

dwindled, the extra guards were with
drawn. Soldiers and police officers,
however, remained in their barracks
all night ready for any emergency.
