At II o'clock Thursday night the
warehouse of the Idaho Mercantile
company was discovered to be on fire.
An alarm was given and the hose
companies responded promptly to the
call. The blaze started In the end
Of the building facing on Front street
and spread rapidly. In less than ten
minutes after the alarm was given the
whole structure was a mass Of flames.
The building contained hay, grain,
-four and feed to the value of about
$500. The building Was a frame
structure ~ by 20 feet and valued at
s45O. The loss Is covered by in
surance.
The firemen did excellent work in
keeping the fire under control and
the water pressure was the best that
has been given the town for the past
three years. There was plenty Of
water and a good force and this fact
caused common remark among the
crowd, calling forth many cOmpli.
ments over the changed conditions.
There is but little doubt that the
FIRE is Of incendiary origin, as it ID

Another evidence that 1t was purpose

fire as Mr.. Green was on the ground

sisting Of George C. Thomson, A. v.
Chamberlain and Charles Kal nquin,
In condemnation proceedings TO con-
denim land along the west shore Of
Lake Coeur d'Alene for a wagon road
at Lofts bay.
This road follows the beach along
the lake for several miles until the
place of Jennie Miller, at Lofts bay,
is reached. when the road turns onto
the land OF the latter, There is a
road short distance above this point
on the Miller place which has been
in use for over 10 years, and the
settlers say that they wanted the road
built below, so that the Millers could
get damage, which was estimated by
the county surveyor and Others at
ESQ. But Mrs. Miller places her
damages at $4,000.
There is a steamboat landing and
dock at Lofts hay and the lake front
Is owned by the Millers, who do quite
an extensive business in buying wood
and selling 1t TO the steamboat com.

ton against organization. The
strengths are nearly equal, and with
the two forces pulling in opposite
directions, IL looks as if the resultant

Theorist, socialist, philosophers

have deluged the world with how to
cure the disease and wipe out the
cleavage line Of demarcation between
labor and capital, but their cure alls
and panaeeas, have been applied in
vain. Labor still wants more and
the capitalists want more of the
worlds gOOds. Each wants to give
the least for the most. Each has
infinite wants Of money, food, shelter,
travel and even luxuries.
With such composition, 1t is not
strange that strife should exist. In
deed it would be strange IL strife
did not exist.
How can the problem be solved
when it is certain that all men cannot
be capitalists nor can all men be
laborers! If all men we're rich, who
would farm the soil and build the

but stagnation, for what would be

Of them were rich? In fact money
itself would be useless, because one
