According to preliminary census figures already made public. Missis sippi has fifteen cities of more than 6,000 population. Meridian is the largest, with a population I of 23.4.'!6, i $ and Tupelo barely goes over the mark '. 3. 4. e. 6. 7. 8. a. 11. 12. 13 14. with a population of 5.055. Lautel shows the largest percentage of growth, with the exception or Pasca goula, while Vicksburg is the only city to show a loss, having declined 13 per cent within the ten-year period. The figures and the standing of the cities are as follows: 1. Meridian. -- 23,436 2. Jackson 22,679 Vicksburg 17.931 Hattiesburg Laurel 13,037 Natchez 12.608 Greenville 11.560 Biloxi lf,982 Columbus 10,552 Clarksdale - 8.522 Gulfport 8,157 Greenwood - '.793 McComb 7,775 Pascagoula -- 6,082 15. Tupelo 5.055 We are giving Hattiesburg fourth 1, 1.... no a natuiil,i,pli' ftnllPtOBV hilt it is our candid opinion that Laurel .1 is the larger of the two cities. I he y population of Hattiesburg has not as yet been announced, but we have it on pretty good authority that the census will exceed that of Laurel ny .;. only a few hundred. It will be re- J rembered that the enumeration in i -y Hattiesburg was held up several weeks X in an effort to secure 15,000 names and thus save the city charter (Hat- tiesburg is operating under the code X provision for cities of more than 15.-1 000), but the number actually fell far y short of that mark. The enumeration X of at least two of the wards of Lau- , T rel was poorly done, hundreds of citl-1 zens having been overlooked entirely, j .j, and there Is little doubt in the minds of our people that this city now has j -j- more than 15,000 population. But a gain of 54 per cent, in ten yeas 's a population showing of which Laurel has a right to be proud, and the Daily Leader confidently be lieves that this rate will be maintain ed for many years to come.-Laurel Leader.
