A Grant county mining man has
returned from Portland, where he
went to interest capital in mining
venture which he was promoting.
He found plenty OF money in the
banks, but none available for invest
ments in mining operations. From
every angle he says the sgrain and
stock raising sections OF the state
have the edge on other resources, and
cites the instance where one man sold
and delivered SO steers in Portland for
$8870 and il wasn't a good day for
steers either. He appears to have
been more than ordinarily observant,
and makes the statement that the
fruit districts are having hard strug-
gle, that business having been over
boosted and capitalized. This in the
main is true. Mining stocks are
speculative and fruits may be classed
es luxuries but bread aud meat feeds

When fond recollections present
them to view
The church and the store and the
school in the wildwood
And all the loved spots that my in

In summer I wandered again to the
village
But found not a neighbor of old
or his spouse.
The streets We're deserted, and farms
needed tillage-
The town had been killed by the
mail order house.
The village had vanished when mer-
chants were banished-
The town had been killed by the

found, and asked why the village
was dead.

And that was what killed it for
