The general reports In reference TO
Spokane have been that the hard times
struck it a terrific blow, causing great
depression there, the assumption OF
property by mortgages and the loss Of
population The DEMocRAr is glad to
know that this was all a ehimera. The
Chronicle Gays:
Spokane will be q great city. No
stronger proof OF this is needed than the
fact that during the hard times of the
last three years this city has continued
to grow. Silver went down-wheat
went dDwn-lead went down-the whole
country went wild for want of money
but 81 Okane has been growing in spite
OF everything. The school reports show
it. So does the voters registration list.
So does the new directory. So viii; the
census of 1895. And il a city can even
bold it's own under such difficulties. W hat
can't it do when times are good again ?
