WILL DEBATE
THE RAILROAD
RATE QUESTION

MOSCOW, Idaho, Jan. 1.-THE
question which the Universities of
Idaho, Oregon and Washington,
composing the Northwest Triangu-
lar league, is to debate this year
has been decided upon. 1t is: Re
solved, that the interstate COM
merce commission should be given
power to prescribe reasonable,
maximum railroad rates in cases
brought before it, these rates to go
into effect within a reasonable time
and to obtain from thence onward
subject to review by the courts"
Each institution is to have an af-
firmative and negative team, the
former to debate at home and the
latter 20 go to another college. The
date of this first triangular debate
will probably be March 20.

OUTSIDE BUSINESS LOTS
ARE IN GREAT DEMAND

ness and this is creating a demand
for store rooms on such streets as
Division, Sprague and Monroe,
which fact is coming to the atten-
ton of investors.
Small store rooms down town be-
tween Division, Monroe, Second
avenu and the river are renting
from $40 to $50 a month and scarce
ly any are vacant at those prices.
Storerooms on outside streets are
renting from $40 to $40.
Another thing noticeable is the
development of the metropolitan
habit of patronizing the "neighbor-
hood" store and butcher shop in
stead of sending into the city or
down town district for everything
This habit is making rapid strides
as the city grows and the outside
stores increase their facilities.
With this demand for outside
business property has come rap
id rise in such property, and the
availa BILE lots are rapidly being
snapped up. Division street has
had a boom because of the factory
building and railroad shops and
proposed viaduct in that section of
the city. Values, so say the real
estate men, are now only about a
third of what they will be within
two years. The same is equally
true of Sprague and Monroe.

men who are in a position to hold
and improve it, that there is poor
picking left for the small investor
who must make a quick turn on
his money.
oBth these reasons are undoubt-
eddy good and in a measure ex-
plain the rush for the outside
streets which promise in the near
future to come into business prop
erty.
But another reason advanced by
recent investor in outside prop
erty is also to the point. He states
that rents have become so high in
down town buildings that the man
with little money who would start
a little grocery or meat market can
not secure a location within his
means and is being driven to the
outside streets to launch his bust

The most notable change in the
Spokane real estate market within
recent months is the movement of
investors in business property to-
ward the main thoroughfares lead
ing into the city. The streets
which have been commanding the
most attention are Division, Mon
roe and Sprague. Perhaps Division
street has had the call.
The reason for this movement
toward outside business property
which has amounted almost to a
rush is variously stated by different
real estate men.
Some claim it is due to the fact
that the inside business property
has advanced so rapidly as to be
now almost beyond the reach of
the investor of moderate means.
Others state that the inside prop
erty has been passing so rapidly

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. IL
VIM. A. Clark. Montana, member
of the United States senate, as such
has two distinctions - he is the
wealthiest member and in certain
ways its most conspicuous dis
grace.
These articles discuss whether
that part of the senate which leg
islates represents the needs Of the
whole people or the demands of the
financial kings of this country. In
the instance of Clark the question
automatically answers itself.
Clark's personal wealth is esti-
mated at $150,000,O00. His annual
income from his copper mines is
said to be $10,o00,O00. He is presi-
dent OF several great mining COM
panies, one of the biggest banks in
the northwest, a street railway cor
poration. railroad. He deals in
real estate and lumber. coal and
granite. He publishes daily news
papers. manufactures copper wire,
grows sugar, rubber and coffee. He
possesses thousands of acres OF
land.
Clark started with little. He has
won his own fortune. Much of the
good and bad in his private life is
known. His public life is what con.

"While the Light" etc.
Wehn the legislature of Montana
sent Clark to take a seat in the
senate the astonishing cry was
raised that this excellent gentle
man had no right to it. The fool
ish objection was made that Clark
had purchased the votes of certain
legislators. The senate committee
on privileges and elections declared
Clark's election void. Clark resign
ed trying to save his face. In
Montana it was brought out in
court testimony that Clark had
paid $4,000 for so votes.
Nothing daunted, however, he ap-
piled to the next legislature, which
sent him to the senate without
strings to which to tie a contest.

When Clark got to Washington
he set about to build a castle in

PUSH WORK AT
BOTH ENDS OF
ALASKA CENTRAL

SEATTLE, Jan. 17.-Work on
the Alaska Central railroad is to be
started by a second party at the
Fairbanks end, surveying party
having begun to run a line from
that point. E. A. Batwell, indus
trial agent for the road, says that
within year they will be operat-
ing trains for freight and passen-
gers on 142 miles of road.
At the present time As miles of
track have been completed, and los
miles of grading done. The work
has been pushed as far as the cliffs
north of Seward, where five tun-
nels, aggregating 1900 feet in
length, must be bored. On four of
these work has advanced SO far
that the men are now nuder cover
and operations can be continued
without cessation throughout the
winter.
The tunnel work is being done
by Peck & Harris, and the grading
by Walsh Bros. and Foley & Lar
son, Of Spokane. The country is
filling rapidly, especially about Sc
ward, where the rush cannot BIZ
accommodated. The town is 81
crowded that 300 tents have beer
erected. The population is abou
1900 with at least as many more
transients.
