The fire at the South Central
high school building was the chief
topic at the Tuesday noon lunch
con of the chamber of commerce
today. The subject was brought
up by Mr.. Fassett. the president

the building would run to about

and S11 900 on the contents. Some
of the other members of the board,
earlier in the day, placed the loss
as high as $250,O00 on the building
alone.
DR.. Allen said that the members
of the board had concluded to take
immediate steps to rebuild and
that until the new structure is
completed the pupils in the high
school will be accommodated with
half day sessions at the North
Central building.
H. l.. Moody urged that a large
fireproof building be erected, one
that would be thoroughly modern
and an ornament to the city.

in short talk, complimented Spo-
kane as being the best city in the
northwest.
Since May 1 there have been 80

it was done: The Inland Empire
Realty Co. handled the affairs of
the preacher here. With them it
was agreed that if the Ross woman
were to run the house as it had
been run, for lodging purposes, she
should pay rental of 500 per
month, but that if she were to run
it as resort she should pay $3.50
per month. The woman agreed to
this, but it wouldn't work. Another
demand was then made on her for
more money, and she agreed to pay
$175 per month, and finally she was
forced to give up 5000 a month,
which she is now paying. How
much of this goes to the preacher
and how much for commissions to
the real estate men the Ross wo-
man can not tell. The only thing
she knows is that she pays the
$500 every month and that she has
no lease, but rents from mnoth to
month.
During all of these negotiations
as to the rent, Donovan represented
the Ross woman. She had, it seems,
interested a man at COlfax named
Kindness in the enterprise, and
Kindness claims that he advanced
$1,000 to set the Ross woman up in
business. After she got under way
she called the police one day and
told Kindness to .skidoo. and he
skidooed
Kindness has now retained AttOr-
ney S. r. Stern to see what can be
done in regaining some of the in
vestment with the Ross woman. w.

woman and is protecting her inter

The Triumph of the Right.

Through corruption the greatest enl-

wreck and ruin and others still may
perish, but the tendency Of the race is
forever upward. Through the silent
lapse of the ages, the Almighty is work
ing in the deep heart Of universal exist
ence evolving higher and nobler type
of manhood and WOmanhood with loftier
visions, grander aspirations, purer mo-
tives and sublimer ideals From the
barbaric to the civilized, from the civil
lied to the Christian, from the Christian
to that highest type beyond the veil
thus has moved and shall move the
great rising tide of human progress and
spiritual development even to the great
white throne of God; and not proudly,
but rather humbly, should we stand
and listen to the symphonic murmur of
the surges in their upward motion.
The recent triumph in Tennessee is.
but one pulsation, one upward heave of
the mystic stream of civic reform and
moral righteousness that has operated
in the stormy affairs of men, with ever
increasing volume and momentum since
the world began. And sent up as it i
was from the fountains of the souls of
noble people and propelled, doubtless,
by divine impulse, it has placed us i'll
the eyes of the world where we right
fully belong-among the wisest and
best people of the age We seem to be
mounting to-day the highest summit of
human enlightenment and moral prog
ress yet attained We are heirs of all
the ages in the foremost files of time. "
Well may we congratulate ourselves;
well render thanks to Him, to whom
above all our thanks are due
The golden horizon of wisdom and
is pushing out farther and
growing brighter as we rise to higher
levels of life The ultimate goodness,
light and love, are becoming more and
