The Republic says:
1.-The Republic, after some little inves-
tigation, is convinced that an industry
which could not fail Of success in PalOuse
would be a packing house, operated in
connection with a cold storage and ice
plant. The matter Of organizing q com
pany and inaugurating such an enter
prise is under contemplation by several
business men, and it is probable that
some action will be taken shortly after
the first of the year. The benefits of
such an industry to the town and sur

employment the entire year, from the
slaughter house to the packing establish

raise, in addition to many other pro-

does a packing and shipping business on
very small scale and under difficulties
because of lack of facilities, shows that

"Billy" Sunday has invaded Spokane,
and the people are daily regaled with the
slang phrases and outlandish doings of
this evangelistic clown. 1t is hard for
the layman to see what good will come
out OF Israel through his methods.
Where he will bring conversion to one
soul there will be dozens of young people
still in the formative period, who will re
peat the slang phrases, which have evil

and if we should have an era of coarse
and blasphemOus talk Billy" Sunday
and the churches supporting him will be
largely responsible for it. Here is a
choice specimen

If this language we're used in a saloon
or a low groggery our religious friends
would hold up their hands in horror and
say it was blasphemy, as indeed it is
blasphemy; but coming from Billy"

as the proper thing.
