George G. Leland has taken
charge Of the Lewiston Patriot
and is getting out bright little
daily. We remember George as .
boy down in Lewiston when we
first took hold of the Nez Perce
News in 1880, and even at that
youthful age he was in the news
paper business, associated with his
father, the late Alonzo Leland.
and his brother, Charles F, Leland,
who were publishing the old Lew
iston Teller. We are glad that
George is back on his native heath.
for with his wide acquaintance in
this section he should do we'll, and
we have always had friendly
feeling for the Leland family, who
were the pioneers of newspaperdom
in what is now the northern coun-
ties of Idaho.
The electric light people are
awaiting the arrival of the DYNAMO
and globes to illuminate the city.
The engine and boiler are in place
and the boiler was fired up Mon
day evening and everything con-
nected and all found to work very
smoothly. The main wires are
all strung and the work of string
ing the wire into business and
private residences will commence
tomorrow. The delay in receiv-
ing the dynamo is all that will pre-
vent lights from being furnished
by New Years.

Auo OAu o9u8Dll6u0u anu reliable
firm of Alexander & Freidenrich
are now fairly j Installed in their
magnificent new brick building
erected this summer on their cor
ner Of Main and Hall street.
The building was designed by
Douglass & Kronnick, the archi-
tects, and is q model of elegance
on the outside and furnished with
every appliance for the transaction
OF business ON modern methods on
the inside. Its size is 80 feet
wide by 100 feet in length, with a
height Of ceiling of Is feet in the
clear. The front is Of solid plate
glass, and there is also a side en-
france on Hall street. Ninety
feet from the main street entrance
q fiji ght Of broad and massive stairs
ascends to the Office, which takes
up q space 14x25 feet overlooking
the entire store, with private
Office in the rear nicely carpeted
and furnished with chairs and
desks for the patrons Of the firm
who may wish a private apart
ment to write their correspondence.
The business Of the firm is now
conducted on the department plan
each branch having its distinct
place in the store, with ample
room for the display Of goods, and
in charge of an efficient corps of
salesment.
Upon entering the store from
the Main street entrance the visi-
tor is confronted by the dry-gpods
department, which occupies tke
entire east side of the store. Upon
the west side is the grocery and
hardware departments, while uns
der the Office is devoted to the
boot and shoe and saddle and har-
ness departments. The carpet de-
partment is at the head of the
office stairs, while galleries extend
on each side for distance of 20
feet for the storage Of surplus
stocks.
The building is hard finished
throughout, and is 80 abundantly
well lighted that shopping can be-
done on the darkest days without
resorting to artificial lights. In
addition to the immense plate glass
frontage, the building is lighted by
four bullseye lights and four large
panes of plate glass on the west
side besides the usual window
lights on the side and rear. The
material used in the construction
Of the Office was all imported and
is finished in natural oil. The
ample shelving and counters were
supplied by contractor A. J. Tur-
ner Of this city, and this together
with the other fittings an d appoint
ments are as neat and durable as
skilled workmanship can make it.
A cash carrier system will be in
stalled upon its arrival, and the
building will also be wired for the
electric lights. The entire build
ing is not only a credit to the pro-
gressive firm which erected it, but
also to the town, and we do not
exagerate in making the statement
that there is not another town in
America OF this size and so distant
from railroads which can show a
better building or one better adapt
ed to the requirements for which
it is to be used, and it's erection
proves the confidence which its
owners have in the future growth
OF growing Grangevile.
