IT may be true that Denver is prospecting
as its papers would have us believe, but all
reports OF travelling men and others who
come from the Queen City of the Plains give
the lie to the statement. The official figures
of the Building Inspector for September
further show the general business depression
OF the place. The building operations for
the month aggregated in value but $63. 900.
Butte quadruples that and doesn't boast of
its greatness.

The refusal OF the Southern Pacific Rail-
way Company to honor the draft OF the
Denver & Rio Grande Company in settle
ment OF the awards of the Transcontinental
pool will in all probability precipitate a
bitter railroad war upon the country. 1t
has disrupted the pool, for, if the percent
ages cannot be agreed upon and settlement
OF awards enforced then it behooves every
member OF the association to pull for itself.

THE Grand Jury OF Sweet Water county,
Wyoming, were unable to find evidence
upon which to indict any onefor participa-

stead, they are rather inclined to censure
the railway company. Their report, which
is given in full in the telegraphic columns, is
somewhat unique and decidedly unsatis-

HERE is a truth tersely told by the
Wood River News-Miner: "The history OF

quiet, determined men, have been more val
liable than all other classes combined"

'FRISCO'S e r
Loss of Nearly Half a Million---In
surance Nearly Covers It.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 8.-The immense
wholesale stationery and printing estab-
lishnent of H. S. Croker & Co., on Bush
street, burned to the ground this morning.
Four men were buried in the ruins. The
estimated loss on the building and stock is
$500, 900; insured for $15O,O 900. Two of
the four tiremen buried in the ruins have
scious state. The other two are undoubt-
eddy dead. Their names are Peter Hannah
and Peter Healy.
THE FIRST ALARM
The first alarm was turned in at 2:1O
this morning, but as the fire originated in
the basement and was what is known as a
"blind fire" the flames had already made
considerable Roadway before the extent of
the danger was realized. In an incredibly
short time the whole interior of the large
live story building seemed to be a mass of
flames. All prospect of saving it or any of
the contents was hopeless. The building
was owned by Charles Crocker, of the Cen
trail Pacific Railroad company, and was
worth $4,000, but not insured. The loss
of II. s. Croker & CO., is $4OO, 900; insured
for 1925, 600. The following companies are
the heaviest losers: California, SO, 900;
Union, of New Zealand, SO, 900; Union, of
San Francisco. $4,000; COMMERCIAL I'm
ion, London, $40, 900; Liverpool, London
Globe, S15,o Royal, Norwich, Union and
Lancashire, S13, 900. Each of the follow
ing lose $4,000: State Investment, Trans
Atlantic OF Hamburg, Phoenix, London,
British America. Western of Toronto and
Firemen's Friend. The upper story OF the
building was occupied by George c. Sheneve
4 Co., jewellers. as a mandatory. Their
loss is 100000, believed to be fully insured.
Schweitzer, Sachs Il Co., jobbers OF fancy
goods, Sansome Street, the rear of whose
premises adioined those OF Crockels, lose
heavily from water. Origin Of the fire is a
mystery.

sc Black Jack" Waves it Furlously at
q Baltimore Banquet.

BALTIMORE, October S.-General John A..
Logan was rendered a banquet at the
Eutaw House House, tonight, by the Logan
Invincibles Of Maryland. About one
hundred and twenty-five people partici-
pated in the banquet. After the removal
Of the cloth, Gen raj Logan was welcomed
by William Marinet, the Republican candi-
date forClerk Of the Court OF Appeals. Gen.
Logan responded by returning thanks to
the Logan Invincibles. He paid a high
compliment to the sociability and hospi-
tality, the energy, wealth, intelligence and
growth Of Baltimore. Of national affairs
he said: '"This Government is a Republic
in name and will be until the people shall
he educated up to the point where every
citizen shall lave a voice in the affairs OF
the nation without limit or h~indrance."
He declared it to be the duty OF every
honest man, OF whatever party, to speak
or violence to deprive an American citizen
OF his ballot and from voting for his choice.
The education of the illiterate was the
remedy to relieve the country from the dis
gracenow resting uponi it, because of 1.-THE bru-
tally exercised against the rights OF Amer
lean citizens in many parts OF the Union.

He asked if the present administration will
use it's influence in trying to remedy this
evil or quietly to %ge it, in order to
continue the solid South. so that with their
Northern allies the country can be
kept within Democratic control. He spoke
OF IL e cry Of the ''bloody shirt and said it
was all by the Democrats. WHO made the
cry upon every criticism Of those who tried
to destroy the Union. Speaking OF the
campaign in Virginia he sale he learned
from newspapers, that the Democratic can
didate for Governor uses the saddle and
bride used by Robert E. Lee and from the
shouts one would suppose the saddle was
the candidate and not the man WHO rides
on it. If he should be elected it will doubt
less be by the Influence OF hat saddle and
bride. A treason stained saddle appears
to be the leading card. Remarks were also
made by Hon. $. B. Elkins, Hon. John l..
