Dillon Growth Says Not Growing Is a False Claim
An editor reviews Bradstreet’s figures from 1898 to 1910 to prove Dillon’s rapid growth. Population rose from 561 in 1898 to 3,000 in 1910, with wealth per person climbing from 16.01 to 46.20 dollars. The analysis shows Dillon outpacing similar towns five to one and contradicts a businessman's remark that Dillon is not growing.
