tate.
The investment spirit, while not so
rampant or general as the speculative
spirit, is ever present and abiding and
is the hope of the real estate business
and the firm rock upon which it ever
rests.
All agents prefer to encourage the
speculative spirit, and in so doing they
are the instruments of making large
sums of money for their clients in
many cases, but there is always an
end to this method of becoming sud-
denly rich. Values when pressed be-
yond reasonable limits will begin to
shrink. Obligations placed on inflated
property will go by default. Public
confidence becomes shaken and bust
ness panic or shrinkage is the result.
Those who have been led too far be-
yond the line of the legitimate will
suffer in consequence. They will find
that it will not pay them to send good
money after bad in attempting to make
second and third payment on prop
erty purchased for far more than ac-
tual value, and they will decide to lose
what they have invested rather than
further rob themselves of what they
possess
In the meantime, while the speculat-
i've fever runs rampant, and the erst-
while conservative agents do violence
to their better judgment In recon-
mending an outlay Of money to their
clients beyond the scope justified by
facts and actual values, a city has re-
ceived the reputation of being on u
boom, and outside investors flock 70
the scene to invest, not wisely, but too
much, of their and other peoples
money. The result of such proceed
ings Is always the same. It Injuries
such city in the long run, and should
be discouraged by all who have the
permanent welfare Of a city at heart.
This city has never really been fool
ish enough to launch out on the sea Of
speculation in the matter of real es-
tate so far as to result in any perma-
nent injury.
The present situation Is one which
should be freighted with much hope
and intelligent expectation to the real
estate fraternity here. Local capital is
investing more largely than ever in To-
cal real estate, and outside money is

chorus girl for week. She became
infatuated with the stage and threw
up her position as writer. During
the past six years she has made II
notable record in character roles, and
especially as negress. She and Nc
1ntyre and Heath are the only i'm
personators of colored characters in
THE Ham Tree" All the other parts
are white and are played by such we'll
known artists as David Terrence, AL
fred Fisher, Jeanne fowler, Carolyn

people and presents an extraordinar-

and twenty young men.

The Han, Tree.

Klaw & Changers production of
THE Ham Tree" in which they are
starring Mcintyre and Heath, is un-
questionably the funniest show of
many seasons. Theirs was unique
idea-the building up of Il three-act
entertainment out of twenty-minute
vaudeville sketch, but they knew their
business and succeeded in putting to-
gether an attraction which is comic
from start to finish. The chorus is
notable one and is made UP OF so
young boys and girls who can sing
and dance-especially dance. Nothing
like the chorus shown in this piece

dancing is no mere posing, with little

dancing is the real thing-clogs, jigs,

novel. Mcintyre and Heath will be

THE SPOKANE MARKET
Heavy Realization Sales and Low Prices
Precede Fourth

Spokane, Wash, July 3.-The
predicted decline in stocks due to
realization sales preceding the cele-
bration Of the Fourth happened on
schedule time. The slump in Idora
was the browning sensation, how
ever. 1t is reported to be due to
dissension among the large owners
and was precipitated by the publ
cation in a local paper Of Geo. P.
l4arsen's version of their differences
and the news that D. N. Peterson
was being sued for non-delivery OF
some Idora stock.
The weeks sales totaled 1873, 1894
shares costing $5S, 026.65 For
the four preceding weeks the totals
were: June 81, 1874, 800, $44, 800

THE LOCAL MARKET
Holiday Week Shows Usual
Slump.-IIora Leads

The past weeks business on the
local exchange has been notable fol
active trading at one session only
and has been characterised through
out by falling prices due to heavy
realization sales. Idora and Rhode
Island led the toboggan slide
though the former mine has just
started shipping and has big ton
mage Of ore broken and in sight.
Just what the immediate future has
in store for these two stocks it is
impossible to foretcll but what is
certain Is that the lower they 60
the better investments they are.
The Miner trusts that small share
holders in neither company will
allow themselves to be scared into
selling as the validity Of their stock
is not in question and its worth
cannot be permanently depressed
by the faults or foibles OF the man
agemcnt Of either company,
Ajax, Lucky Calumet and Nom
pareil have been taken from the
list. 1t would be q godsend to
some others if they were taken of
the board too.
Sales for the week were ISL ,955
worth $l4, 777.35 as compared with
1876, $50, 10000, 15S,433 and
