a Glimpse of the City.

From the top of the high palisades
that sweep from east to west just to
the south Of and overlooking the city,
one can obtain the very best view Of
Spokane Falls, and the surroundings.
The picture is one that is well worth
seeing, and when once seen the OBJ
server will turn to gaze again and
again as loath to leave the spot.
There are few cities extant so pret-
tily situated, or which so favorably
strike the eye of the lover Of the
beautiful. Looking down from this
eyrie the city is spread out like a
vast diagram, and every public build
mig reduced in proportion by the
abbreviating effect of distance, stands
out prominently. Howard street,
the main artery of traffic running
north and south, along which can be
seen pigmy men, singly or in groups,
moving hither and thither, stretches
out from the school house until it
bumps up against Echo Mills, the
architectural mastodOn that rears its
terraces of windows high above its
lesser neighbors. One is struck by
the enormous number Of bright new
shingle roofs that are scattered ev-
erywhere in sight, the progressive
marks of rapid and substantial
growth. There is not a point the
eye reaches that is not rich in these
indications of prosperity. One real
izes the rapid spread of the city
more vividly from an examination
at this distance than walking around
among the new buildings. 1t seems
that the new structures Of the pres
ent season predominates. And it is
a source of qualification to note that
all of the improvements of this year
are far superior in every respect to
those of former years. But the pan
Drama here presented does not end
with the city, with its diversity of
architecture and its variegated color
ing. Here and there one catches
glimpses of the foaming river, and a
veil of mist points out the location
of the main falls. The country to
the west and northwest is rugged
and Ebroken, the high : billow of
mountain peaks stretch on and on
until the dark tops mingle with the
bI39 of the horizon and blend to-
geSher as one; north and east a
broad plain, covered with a carpet
Of velvet verdure spreads out for
miles until it dashes up against the |
sides of far off hills, where it is lost |
amidst the shadows of the primevai |
forest. AT this season everything is |
to the eye. The city !
nesting at the foot of the bluffs is a |
beautiful gem in an equally as beau
tiful setting, one the work Of man,
the other the handiwOrk of God, |
each incomplete without the other,
and united as lovely a sight as can
be seen on two continents. Just |
stroll up to the nights and take a |
look while the show is in its best |
form.

We have felt gratified of late to
see so many vehicles from the coun-
try on our streets. 1t shows that
the farming community have COM
menced to understand that it is to
their advantage in more ways than
one to do their purchasing at the
Falls, and when the tide once sets
this way it will continue in the
same direction. 1t stands to reason
that this city is the best point Tor
the farmer to deal at and find a
market for his produce. The home
demand requires our merchants to
carry large and complete stocks Of
goods and competition has become
so sharp that prices have dropped so
low as to compare favOrably with
Eastern houses. Farmers are quick
to learn where they can deal to the
best advantage, and they invariably
continue to patronize that place.
During the past few months the trade
from the country has increased to
wonderful extent, and every pleas
ant day the roads leading into town
are lined with teams coming in load
ed with those commodities common
to the farm, or returning with full
cargo of household supplies. Sew
eral days last week the city was
crowded with wagons, and from the
general appearance of the owners it
was evident that they were glad
they came. Every city, depending
largely on the retail trade, must
look to the country for much of its
support, and while Spokane Falls is
rapidly becoming a wholesale point,
yet this class of trade is very de-
sirable one. We take pleasure in
inviting the farmers of this and ad-
joining counties to come to Spokane,
examine the stocks carried and learn
the prices before going elsewhere.
They will not only never regret 1t
but will never desire to go any
where else to do their trading.
