Introductory.


CITY DIRECTORY OFFICE,


Oct. 30, 1902.


It is with pleasure we place before the Citizens of Des Moines, Volume XI of our Directory of the Capital City of Iowa, and in doing so, we feel a certain degree of pardonable pride to which we believe we are entitled, as we claim this to be the best directory ever issued for this city. The Information contained herein will be found as complete and correct as it is possible to make a directory, and we ask our patrons to bear with the few errors which may be found. Ne


pains of expense has been spared to produce a directory second to none and we feel safe in saying that we believe our efforts in this regard will be duly appreciated.


POPULATION.


The Directory contains 38,942 names, a gain of 2,142 names as compared. with a gain of 1149 in the preceeding year. Deducting 6 per cent for firm names, .- leaves 36,606 names, which, multiplied by 272, the smallest number used by any


directory company, shows the population to be at this time 91,515, an increase ' over 1901 of 4,115.


We desire to extend our thanks for the patronage given this issue of the work and the uniform courtesy with which our representatives have been met.


Yours respectfully,


R. L. FOLK & CO.
