INTRODUCTORY
Des Moines is a thriving, progressive city, and one in which the unwritten law of all its citizens, no matter what their vocation, is improvement. - The publish-
ers of this, the fifteenth annual edition of the City Directory, feel that in present- ing it to their patrons and the public they have proved they are fully imbued with the prevailing spirit of the community, and that in its general appearance, in the- thoroughness and accuracy of its contents, in the scope and character of the informa- tion it affords, they have shown themselves abreast of their neighbors, and expect to retain the confidence and support of the public in even larger measure than ever before.
We wish to congratulate our citizens on the great improvements constantly being made in our fair city. Great things have been done in the past year, are now being done and GREATER THINGS are promised for next year.
This volume contains 43324 names, making the necessary deduction for firms, corporations, removals or deaths and multiplying this number by 2 1-2, the ratio which hitherto has been found to correctly embrace the names of women and children
not included in the directory, indicates a total population of 99877 an increase over last year of 1177.
The publishers desire to express to the business and professional men of Des Moines their thanks for the liberal support accorded the work, and in conclusion will
say that in the future they will be as unremitting in their efforts to please as in - the past. .
Des Moines, Iowa, November 26, 1906.
