OLD LANDMARK
TORNDOWN!
One Of the First Buildings
Erected in Salmon Has
Passed lnto History.

One by one the old landmarks OF
the early history of Salmon are dis
appearing. Monday morning G. A.
Martin began tearing down the old
shoe shop OF Peter Amonson adjoin.
Ing the Black 4 Jackson saloon.
The building has been in weakened
condition for some time and 1t was
thought best to have IL torn down
than TO have it fall down and injure
the adjoining buildings. While the
men were at work inside. some one
removed one of the principal props
aud the roof began TO fall. fortn-
nately those inside were able TO get
out without injury, but IL surely was
narrow escape. Jack Black, who
was standing near received cut ON
the head which was not serious.
Judge Giles, who was standing on
the walk Ia front OF the building,
was knocked into the ditch but unin'
jured. 1t was very fortunate indeed
| that no one was seriously hurt.
| IRE history OF this building is very
| interesting indeed II was one OF
the Hrst buildings 10 be erected IL
the city, having been built by Jim
Buckley In 1867. IL was built and
used for saloon in the first place,
In 1870 or 1871 Peter Amonson ant
NJ. NJ. Mcpherson purchased tn,
building aud converted il into boot
and shoe shop where they supple,
the footwear for the early settlers.
The bailding was also used as TIN
government postollce, NJ. NJ. Nc
Pherson, being the postmaster, re
ceiying his first commission from
Timothy Howe postmaster genera
somewhere in the latter part OF tn
70's. IL Is said that in those day
the money order business amounte'
to as high as $50, 900 year.
| II those old walls could talk, wha
interesting and perhaps horribl
things they would tell. There wer
several shooting serapes but no mut
ders that we can learn Of. No on
can estimate the amount OF gold dus
that changed lands In that building
and no doubt II the dirt OF the Zoo
was panned some gold might be foun
now. IfalI the facts could be learned
no doubt that In the early history {
the building, fortunes were made an
lost by the trequenters Of the place.
When MIR. Mcpherson went Int
the mercantile business with Shou
he sold his interest in the property
his partner, VINO continued in bus
uess until 1892, since which tim
the building has only been used as
store room.

thick and fast. IL surely was rare
day in June, and from the expires.
sions OF the people on the street, 1t
vas hoped that II would become

10 see the flowers and green grass
and trees covered with the white
snow. IL began showing about five

almost continuously until noon wber

evening. Following the bard rain oi
