ADAMS & Phone 185 Pearl Street POPULAR TOWN NAMBS If someone were to ask you . what is the most popular name for towns in the United States, what would you guess? Unless you had checked up the names in the United States Postal Guide, it is safe to say that you would not hit upon the right name in a dozen guesses. Of course Washington woulji suggest itself, also Springfield, possibly Paris. But neither of them is the leader, although Washington stands in the second rank. The most popular town na#[ie in the United States is Clinton, of which there are thirty postoffices. Next comes Chester, Florence, and Washington with 28 towns of each name; and then Clayton, Madison, Marion and Troy, 27; Glenwood, Newport, Kingsport and Salem, 26; Ashland and Centerville, 25. There are 24 Clevelands and the same number of Springfields, several of them being important cities. Other names range from this number downward. There is only one New York, but two Chicagos' 6 Philadelphias and 8 Detroits. The outstanding popularity of the name Clinton is somewhat difficult to understand, although two statesmen of that name were very prominent in the early days of the republic. George Clinton was the first governor of the state of New York and was vice-president of the United States at the time of his death in 1812. His nephew, DeWitt Clinton, was also governor of New York and an unsuccessful candidate for the presidency, being defeated by Madison. Whether it be through the fame of these statemen or the euphony of the name itself, Clinton is the favorite name for towns in the United States. ?
