SATURDAY, JULY 2S, 1883.

ALMOST three months ago we land
ed in Spokane Falls, armed with Il
grip-sack and a good stock Of hope.
At that time the spirit of rapid ad-
Vancemcnt that had made itself APP
parent early in the spring had crept
on top, and evidences Of the growth
Of the city We're to be observed on
every hand. Then the demand for
real estate was brisk and values were
slowly but surely going higher.
Then our ears were assailed by the
brisk thump of the hammer and the
raEtng notes Of the saw. In any di-
reltiOn we might turn our eyes the
skeleton outlines of buildings were
shooting upward, and newly finished
houses smiled from every quarter.
Daily the trains vomited forth scores
of eager strangers hunting for homes
and investments, and a degree of
prosperity was manifest that prom
ised great and rapid growth. Some
PNOpiN oH'Oh lilSll HttuS anu Sulu IL
could not last, enviOus outsiders
smOte their chests and intimated
that the "bOOm," as then designated,
was but momentary and a snare and
Illusion. Three months have flown by
since then. Has the rush subsidized :?
Has the building fever died out ? Has
property declined Are people de-
serting the city? Is there a cloud
e2lipsing the promised sun of pro-
gress? Isis there any sign of
weakening? Most emphatically do
we answer, Not much The advance
ment and future of Spokane Falls is
founded upon a foundation of last
ing stability. 1t is hers for all times,
and every year will see it PROCESS.
There may come times when the
growth will be slower, yet it will be
none the less sure, and it will only
be caused by the people taking a
brief rest to commence again with
renewed vigOr There are more
buildings than ever in course Of con-
structiOn. Brick blocks and frame
residences on every hand. There is
not street, alley or byway in the
city that is not the scene Of some i'm
provement. Houses to the right of
us, houses to the left of us, houses in
front of us go up without number.
And before the season is over scores
OF others, for which the foundations
are not even laid, will be added to
the sum total. Property has by no
means deprecated. On the con-
trdry it is still going up. Prices may
be considered fancy, vet there are
plenty of people willing to risk their
means by purchasing. There is no
ahaternar,t IN tlss, .lsssEs.tssss - ssrriVuis.
The hotels are crowded to their ut
most capacity and "the cry is still
they come" When the Northern
Pacific is completed, which will be
early in September, the immigration
will greatly increase. However we
look for the great rush next year,
and believe that the city and entire
county will make larger growth in
1884 than any year since its first set
tlement. The prospects of Spokane
Falls were never more encouraging
than at the present writing, and
there is no reason to doubt but that
it will continue on indefinitely. The
people are perfectly satisfied with
the outlook, as well they may he,
and it is the general opinion Of every
one, strangers and old settlers, that
the city will number its population
by the thousands in few years.

Between there and OrtonvilIe, at the head

CHICAGO, July 25.-The near approach
of the presidential election is the signal
for the figuring fend to make his appear
ance. Already people are beginning to
discuss what states are likely to go Repub-
lican and what are likely to go demo-
cratic and to make combinations of the
electoral vote see how it foots up. Too J
party of gentlemen, among whom W
several prominent local POI
ticians, were engaged in this very
business of making presidents. As tie
calculations that were made may be of
interest to students of the political situa-
| ton, some of the figures are reproduced:
The total electoral vote of the county is
4O1. of which POI is majority. Of this
total the sixteen southern states have 153
votes. The 'solid SOUTH" with the thirty
six votes of New York, the fifteen of In
aiana and nine of New Jersey make a
grand total of 213. Conceding that Ma
hone carries the twelve votes of Virgins
for the Republican nominee. there would
still be POI left, which is a majority
Surprising that the Democrats lost Indian;
they would have to carry Connecticut, 81,
votes; California, eight, and Ne
vada, three, .sto make
up, which would swell their tota
to 203. But losing New York, the Demo
Gratis, to elect their man, would be com
PEELED to carry some other large northern
state, for the solid south, with New Jersey
Connecticut, Indiana, California ant
Nevada would only give 1914 votes, or
short of majority. Hence it would b.
necessary for them to carry Ohio, Illinoi
or Wisconsin to make up the deficiency
The election hangs mainly on the result il
New York. With it the Republicans ar
sure to elect their candidate, but they ma
win without New York
they carry both Virgins
, and Indiana. With New York the demo
Gratis are almost sure of victory, for the
have only then to carry Indiana and tn
south and win. Should Virginia be CARRIE
by the republicans, New York would max
up for it. If Indiana and Virginia ar
both carried by the republicans, then tn
democrats would have to carry in addition
to New York and the south New Jersey
Connecticut, California and Nevada, an
they could still have 203 electoral vote!
Thus the great battle of 1884 is to
fought in New York, with heavy skirmisE
ing in Indiana and Virginia.

A Mysterious Robbery.

About 9 o'clock last night Mr.. P. J Bow
lin, of Bowlin & Mcclellan, came into po-
lice headquarters and notified Chief Clark
that their firm had been victimized out OF
$4,000. The exact manner in
which so much wealth got
away from the firm was not stated. but il
was strongly intimated that the case was
one of enlightenment. The affair was en-
veloped in considerable reserve, and sub
sequent developments only tended to deep
en- the mystery.
The detective talent of the force was put
to work on the case, but up to midnight
no arrest had been made. At a late
hour reporter called al
the residence of Mr.. Bowlir
and in reply to inquiries that gentleman
said there was nothing in the case. In
explanation of his visit to the city hall he
said that party in the city owed the
firm some money and that they had col
tared him before he left town, and squared
the matter up. The guarded manner il
which the explanation was made and the
other circumstances of the case, make Il
appear probable that there is more in the
matter than the parties interested care tt
tell.

evening to a reading by Miss Green, of

To save the men for drill and camp
practice each company hired cook and
helpers, and according to the reports of
their guests, all have lived we'll. Some of
the companies may have exceeded in ex-
penses the sum total they will receive by
companies from the per diem paid
by the state for each man in camp
but most of them have limited the
cooking and mess accounts within theil
allowances. Several of them have sup
piled themselves with fully provided camp

of good crockery and glassware, cutlery
and napkins, was more like home thai

THE NEW HAMPSHIRE DISGRACE.

THE NEW HAMPSHIRE DISGRACE.
Over the senatorial election in New
Hampshire the Republican party has
fallen into disgraceful pot-house broil,
and there is disposition to abandon the
effort to elect senator, adjourn the legis-
lature and let the governor appoint. The
members of the legislature who hold the
balance of power are determined that
Chandler shall not be elected. He is
equally and more viciously stubborn, and
says he won't withdraw. The other candi-
dates who have for weeks been staying in
the umseemly race are willing to retire if
Chandler will lead the way, but until he
does they will not bulge in that direction
| The failure to elect would be dis
astrous to the party. In such case
Gov. Hale would appoint Rollins
as he is pledged to. If that happens the
state falls into the hands of the Democrats
with four Presidential electors next year
1t is problematical now if any election Ii
arrived at, if the party can be harmonized
The spectacle that is presented by Thu
wrangle is that of national disgrace
though it is but the repetition of conduc
that transpires whenever and wherever tn
opportunity offers. The fact is the Who'll
country is permeated with disgust and dis
trust with the spoilsmen, whose hands ar
reeking with corruption, who are the enc
mics of good government, and whose sci
fshness passes the bounds of all decency
