BAD FIRE.
Canton Visited by Destructive
Fire-Lumber Yard
Burned.

Canton. April 1.-THE fercest and
most destructive fire in the history of
Canton occurred Friday morning dur
ing a terrific northwest gale, which
carried burning chunks of wood from
the Mutual Lumber company's yard
several blocks towards the Sioux river,
and even across into Iowa.
AT 1890 the FIRE alarm was given,
and in few minutes the entire upper
story of the big double shed of the Mu-
tual Lumber company was blazing fifty
feet high under pressure of fifty mile
gale.
The firemen worked like heroes and
saved the Bowman Kranz lumber yard
across the street over which the blaze
rolled at times.
Burning embers set fire several times
and finally consumed the Milwaukee
pump house, on the river bank, five
blocks away. At 2 O'Clock the fire
was under control, but in one hour and
q half $4,000 worth of lumber and
shingles had been consumed
The platform of the Milwaukee depo,
and other railroad property was on fire
at times, but hundreds of watchers
were able to keep the fire from spread
ng while three enignes hauled freight
cars out Of danger
The fire was without doubt of incsn
diary origin. The loss is about $50, 600
insurance. $4,000.
g. L. Pray, of Lake City. To-, and
Canton men owned the property which
was destroyed.

GRANGE FOR GOOD ROADS.
A,Purely Grange Road Bill Now Before
the New York State Legislature.

A Purely Grange Road Bill Now Before
the New York State Legislature.
The New York state grange legisla-
tive committee has had a new bill pre-
pared amending the -Fuller-Piank law,
so that poorer towns will receive ii lar
ger share of state aid and grading the
towns according to the average as
sessed valuation per mile of road rath-
er than the valuation per town. In its
grading of towns for state aid under
the money system the grange bill uses
the assessed valuation as equaliZed by
both the board Of supervisors and the
board of equalization.
There were numerous good road
bills before the legislature, but none
of them took account of the inequali-
ties that appeared in the working OF
the old law The grange bill proposes
to give towns with valuation of less
than $5000 per mile 100 per cent ad-
dition to that which they raise them
selves; those between $4,000 and $1,000
valuation, 90 per cent: between $1,000
and $4,000, 50 per cent; between $4,000
and $11,000 10 per cent, and between
$1,000 and $4,000, 80 per cent. A
limitation is fixed for towns with
S25, 900 per mile valuation not to ex-
ceed 500 per mile annually, and towns
with mileage valuation exceeding
$Z5,00O will not he permitted TO draw
more than onc-tenth of 1 per cent Of
their total valuation This is purely
a grange good roads bill.
