Introductory
The publishers of THE VALPARAISO CITY DIRECTORY for 1893 have spared no labor or expense in securing full data for a com- plete, correct and reliable reference directory. Every residence, manufacturing and business house inside the corporation limits has been carefully canvassed by expert census takers, and no effort has been withheld to secure the name of every adult to classify in its proper place in our pages.
The population of Valparaiso has evidently increased very much since the official census was taken, or the city did not receive due credit at that time for what inhabitants it really had. We have the names in our columns which, according to expert figures, give Valparaiso a population of 6,660. This figure is quite conservative and does not include the students at the Normal School. Adding then the average attendance at that institution of 1,900, we have a total population of 8,560.
All information of a valuable character has been sought for insertion in this work. Every society, church and other organ- ization, has been solicited for information as to the particulars of their location, officers, time and place of meeting, etc., and as far as the publishers know the lists are complete.
We wish to thank the city officials, the press, and the many citizens of Valparaiso, who have aided us in our efforts, and trust that the result of our labors will be appreciated.
Very respectfully,
KRAFT & RADCLIFFE.
