the statement of the manager of one
of the local lumber companies. He
states that more building material is
being used now than has been used
before, this year. and 1t is a self
evident fact that new residences are
being started every day. St. Maries
is not booming but it is enjoy ing
a steady growth which il It keeps
up at the present rate will In a short
lime place our city among those in
the front rank Ia the northern part
of the state.
A. II. Climie, local manager of the
Potlatoh Lumber company states
that the demand for building mater
ial is 30 great that the supply of
seasoned lumber in their yards Is
getting low, and also said that for
the last two months more material
is being used every day.
1t is surprising how many new
homes are being built, when one
takes a walk about the city In al
most every portion of the City new
residences are being erected aud &C
cupled as soon as they are partially
completed
10 the government townsite alone
there are nearly dozen houses
under construction and many families
are living in tents waiting tor the
completion of the homes.
If a contractor should start work
on fifteen or twenty houses he could
rent or sell practically all of them
before he had them completed, so
great is the demand for residences
Although there has been much talk
of close finance and decrease In
business all over the country this
year which has affected many partE
of the country and even many of the
NEARBY towns. st. Marles is forging
steadily ahead and is growing as
rapidly In proportion to the size OF
the town as any of the cities In this
section.
The building is not confined only
70 the residence district as several
new business houses are being built
and taken as a whole the citizens o
st. Maries have every reason to be
proud of her growth and genera

Start Work

WORK BY DAY LABOR
Plans Call for Modern, Sanitary
COmmOdiOuS Jail Quarters

Work has been on the new
city jail under the |hall Several
loads of rock have 6een hauled and
the excavation work has been COM
pletsd
The Jail when completed will be
2Ox30 feet In size aud made Of con-
srets throughout It will nave two
re9as sation size steel cages and will
be 4 oh safer and more oommodious
than the old jail The old Jail will
be kept in use for emergency cases
In order to keep the prisoners from
communicating with persons on che
outside the jail will have no win
dows on the south or east sides There
will be one or two windows on the
north and probably two on the west
side 1t is probable that a fence will
be built arnund the jail 10 order to
5axclude all persons who would be
crested In assisting the prisoners
Escape, or In furnishing them with
liquor, a thing which was so preva-
lent about the old jail and an evil
which the officers found it impos-
sible to cope with as even when
strong wire mesh was placed over
the windows the lumberjacks on the
outside would cut the mesh and pass
bottle of liquor into the Jail to
their partners IN jail, the oouse-
quenoe often being that men arrested
on a charge OF drunkenness would be
ia a worse coLdition in the morning
than when placed under arrest
The windows In the jeil will be
placed near the ceiling aud will be
high enough so that the prisoners
cannot hold communication with
persons on the outside.
Instead OF letting a contract for
the work as was the original plan tbs
city council has decided TO have the
work done by day labor
Street Commissioner john Mar
tinedis will have charge of the work
and will personally oversee the jot
The steel cages will be placed
prac tIcally in the center Of the iai
room leaving corridor on four side
The prisoners will be allowed to ex
ercise in this corridor and excep
in refractory cases will probably b.
allowed there most of the time ex
