of locating here. ! have known of sew
eral instances in which men have come
to Lewiston, looked the town over,
found it a good, bustling little city

They Did Not Trade Houses.
Il know one man who, when he came
to Lewiston. was unable to secure
any house but a small one, and for
that he had to pay $25 a month He
owned some property in Portland,
Ore, located within ten minutes ride
Of the downtown district of that city
and this he offered to exchange for
the house he was renting in Lewiston
He approached the owner and laid the
whole affair before him:
Il have house on Sixteenth street,
Portland, within ten minutes ride of
the heart Of that city. 1t is two
stories, yours is cottage My house
is arranged for a furnace, yours is not
Mine has modern plum Ding at least
equal to yours. It is y house OF six
rooms, while In yours there are but

Eyes, but what's the rent you get
for your Portland house." inquired the
Lewiston owner.
Eighteen dollars a month" replied
my friend.
mo, the deal did not go through"
Mr.. Powers said laughingly. "The
Lewiston property owner is getting $2b
month, while the Portland man gets
$1s."
Big Demand for Houses.
II am thoroughly convinced that a
man with a capital of $4,000 or $12,-
600 dollars could very profitably invest
1t in the erection Of houses or apart
ments here in Lewiston" he conclud-
ed, "and believe that the risk would
be very slight"
From other sources, from men en-
gagged in the erection of houses In
this city. 1t was gathered today that
there is a constant demand for houses
Of a desirable kind, and in desirable
localities. One man, a contractor. said
that he had never known OF time
when houses were not being sought
He further stated that he believed
that there was no question Of the
need of some such investment as the
one referred to above and that with
lumber and labor at the prices which
are prevalent in Lewiston, the profits
on the investment should be large.

ture in unselfish patriotism and unre-

of Fate beyond recall or change their
perpetuity and benificiences are con-

No Excuse for Remissness.
But after all, why should we at
tempt to delude ourselves? I am con-
fident that l voice your convictions

and no amount of special pleading can
frame an absolutely credible excuse
