cent.
Banner county's population is
1.435. In 3910 it had 1,444, a loss
ot nine persons in 10 years.
Thereliiujiiary announcement of
th population of Alliance, Neb., of
4,591, has created a panic, in that
thriving city in Box Butte, county,
- ani the Chamber, of Commerce,
- through Judge Kinkaid, has shown
v gross inaccuracy in the enumeration.
So strong have these representations
been fromthe leading business men
of Alliance that the director of the
census has given permission to the
Chamber of Commerce to recount
ihe people in the city which will be
checked up with the supervisor's re
port on the Sixth district
, Judge Kinkaid, in a letter to the
director of the census, showed the
importance of a recount in Alliance,
its position in city classification de
neiidine on a re-enurrieration and its
ability to issue bonds for municipal
improvements hanging on the place
it will receive under state law.
The census of Box Butte county
is given as ft,407.

tye allowed a general increase of 20
per cent in the price of gas to, a new
miniruuni of $2,10 a month per 1,000
cubic feet, following the passage of
an ordinance by the city council. The
council divided evenly, four in favor
A
f and four against the proposal.
Mavor Hinman cast the deciding
vote :or higher rates. ' -
In addition to the consumption
charge, there will be an additional
chame of 50 cents a month for the
meter. ' Present gas rates are $1.90 a
thousand feet. , '
Lloyd Phillips, manager of the

Councilmen who opposed it thought
the raise too high.
