BIGGEST MILL
IN ALL THE WEST
Is to Be Built in Occur d'AIene
This Season

An article appeared in the col
umns the Press some time ago stat
ing that the Rutledge Timber com
pany, backed by the Weyerhauser in
terest, would establish a mill on their
site east of the city where that com
pany has about 300 acres of choice
land with a large lake frontage. This
report is again confirmed by state
ments from reliable sources and 1t is
expected that ground will be broke in
the near future. Last fall Mr.. Wey-
erbauser, son of Mr.. L. Weyerhauser,
president of the We yerhauser com
panies, visited the city and stated
that 1t was the intention of the
combined companies to make use Of
their mill site this year, and that the
mill when be constructed would
be one of the largest in the United
States. Reports now states that the
company will estab ish a mill that
will rival the Potlateh plant, which
il considered the finest in the coun-
try. A rou gh estimate Of the cost Of
the new plant Is placed at a round
81, 000,O 900. A large addition to the
city in that section will spring into
existence with the coming Of the mill
for over 600 men will be employed.
1t is stated that the Weyerhauser peo-
pie have holdings Of white pine trib-
utaTy to Occur d'Alene to the amuont
OBS, 900. 900, 600 feet, enough to keep
the new plant in operation for 40 or
so years. Mr.. FL. Davies, a represen-
tatiye Of the Rutledge company, will
neither confirm or deny the report,
and his silence is takel as . signifi-
cant fact that the company will build.
At just shat time the work will be
commenced has not been determined,
but reports are that before the sum
mer is past the plant will be we'll IN
der way.

sion to establish anything but toll
station and the lines leading there
from. Despite this lack Of authority
the company has taken possession of
the streets and alleys and is doing a
local business, as if fully empowered
by franchise. Sentiment is strong
ly against the company for the reason
that it would not come to Standpoint
until the Interstate company had be-
come established, and then declined
to come in on a franchise similar to
that granted the Interstate company.
The council has refused to grant any
franchise to a company without bind
ing it to unite with the other com
panies on the local business, in order
to save the people the necessity of
having more than one phone in their
homes and places Of business. The
Bell company has refused to accept Il
franchise with such limitation.

RACE SUICIDE AND THE DEATH
ROLL.

I notice in yesterdays Journal the
reiteration of President Roosevelt's
ideas on race suicide. wonder if it
ever occurred to the president to
take the other horn of the dilemma
and see what he could do at lowering
the death rate. The same results
would be obtained, and the latter
seems to me a more fit subject for
legislators to grapple with than the
former.
On the average, for number of
years, 100, 900 drunkards die annually
"a wholly unnecessary proceeding if
legislators would stop the rnanufac-
ture and sale of alcoholic beverages.
Last year 5000 wives were murdered
by drunken husbands. They might
be living yet and possibly bearing
children had it not been for the Ii
censed liquor traffic. Hundreds of
thousands more babies die annually
for lack of nourishment because their
fathers spent for intoxicating liquor
what should have bought nourishing
| food for the mother and given more
who lesome environment. Isn't it as
important to save the people we have
as TO have more born to be killed off
at this fearful rate?
A mission worker in one of our
large cities cites the case of a family,
the father of which was a drunkard.
the mother ofwhich had borne eleven
children, seven of whom had been
buried at the expense of the city.
This case could be repeated in every
large city. Does not the mother who
bears four children, nurtures and
cares for them and brings them to
maturity, do as much to populate the
world as tbs one who brings eleven
into the world, seven to die in in
fancy? No wonder that mothers
shrink from going down into the jaws
of death to bring forth life when they
know that one boy in four must be
sacrificed to the liquor traffic in order
to keep up that business. Yet Presi-
dent Roosevelt hasn't time, or space
in his annual message to Congress, &c
say one word concerning the fearful
Death rate and its cause.
