who ever won the Great American

more beautiful trophies than any other
living shooter. He was captain of the
well known American team which trav

the more marked. During the last sea

$50 Feet Long.

MABTON. Wash. Aug 1.-The
big lumber warehouse Of Blaumer
eco being built here is expected to
be completed within a month. This
house is $50 feet long and will be
one OF the largest in this part of the
valley. 1t is the fourth to be erected
here in the last few years. The build
ing will be used for storing all of the
company's lumber but lath and shin
giles, which will be stacked in the
yard.
The erection of this house is in
dicative of the belief some of the
large business men of the state have
in Mabton's future. Until the pipe
line, now under construction from
the Sunnyside canal. is completed,
but little building will be done, but
as lots have been sold all through
the outskirts of the town a building
boom is looked for as soon as the
water is turned on. This will be

THE REVIVAL OF PROSPERITY.

Is a revival of industrial prosperi-
ty at hand in the United States? That
is the question which is probably real
ly uppeImost in the mind of ma
jority of Americans-ce certainly of a
majority of American business men,
Even the political issues of a presi-
dental campaign do not really mat
ter so much to the country as this
question of industrial revival; be-
cause after all. politics only concerns
the average American as he thinks
the success of one set of principles or
another will affect the countrys pro-
gress and welfare.
The country has been looking for
a business revival ever since it caught
its breath after the temporary col
lapse of last fall, but there was not
much hope of its real appearance I'M
Der. Lately however. the signs of
recovery have been multiplying so
rapidly as to lead to feeling that.
perhaps. we may not have to wait
until our quadrennial political stock
taking is over for return of good
times. The national campaign does
not seem to be having it's expected
depressing effect upon trade this
year-a fact which may be due to
the general discounting of the out
come, in conjunction with combin-
alton OF unusually favorable condi-
lions outside of politics.
This years crops promise to be the
greatest, in the aggregate, the coun-
try has ever known, and money is low
and plentiful. Such a combination
always spells prosperity. Its pres
ent effects are visible in the reports
of increasing trade and of general
resumption of activity in mills and
factories, which come from every line
of production. Apparently the con-
clusion has been generally arrived
at that the result of this presidential
election is not going to interfere with
the process of return to normal con-
ditions. Consequently business ev-
erywhere feels free to take advantage

BIG LAND SALES.
Many Buyers from All Parts Of
the United States are
Here.

Yakima valley realty is finding a
ready market this summer, sales for
the past two months having been
much heavier than the same period
of 1907, with increasing demand.
Sales that amount to $4,000 and
over are not unusual.
Nelson, Hartshorn & Palmer re-
port that their aggregate sales of
orchard lands since July Is amount
to $36,250. Another real estate
house is just closing an orchard land
deal for $4,000 and there were two
deals within the last month involving
between $4,000 and $4,000 in
which other real estate houses were
concerned.
Members of the firm of Tenant G
Miles say that business has been
brisker during the past month than
for the similar month year ago. 1t
indicates that investors from all over
the United States, many of whom are
here, consider that Yakima valley
property is the best sort of invest
ment.

TOWN IS DOOMED
SAND POINT, IDAHO
WILL BURN TO GROUND
Great Forest Fire is Sweeping the
Hills, Cleaning Out North

SPOKANE, Aug. 11.-A Sand
Point, Idaho, special to the Spokes-
man-Review says: With the wind
blowing gale and the adjacent town
of Kooteenai on fire, it seems no
power can save Sand Point at 8
O'Clock this evening. A small forest
first north of Kootenai was blown
into the town and the town of 800
inhabitants was burned to the
ground. The Humbird Lumber COM
pany has a 100000 plant at Koo-
tenai which was burned to the
ground and is only partly insured. At
present the fire is only 1000 feet
from the Panhandle sme1ter, which
seems doomed. Homeless people of
the little hamlet of Kootenai have
been brought here and are being
cared for. Over 500 volunteers are
fighting the approach of the flames.
Sand Point has population of TO-
900. An appeal has been sent to the
Spokane fire department for aid.
1t was impossible at midnight to
learn the extent of damage by fire at
Sand Point. Telegraph wires are
down and the connection was lost
with the regular telephone line. but
the operator of the Independent Of
flee at Sand Point says the town is
in no immediate danger. Reports
are conflicting about smelter at
Ponde Reille. one report declaring it
burned and anNher that the smelter
is still safe. A special train left Spo-
kane at IL o'clock with steamer and
hose cart. Sand Point is 20 miles
distant and it is expected the run will
be made in an hour and half.
