ShaWs office, $500; Valley bar Der shop, $500; African drug store $500; Madison's (negro) barber shop and pool hall, $500.
 Braccato's hotel, the Valley saloon and Lang's bakery each occupial large two-stCry frame buildings. The others were ordinary one-story frame buildings except the Grand Leadar furniture store, which occupied a double brick building. .9
 Several small dwellings occupied ,y negroes lost all household goods. Practically no stock was saved from any of the stores or buildings except from the Grand Leade'. and mucn furniture taken from hat huildil, Was damaged by the heat
 On account of the construction Of tho building no insurance was carried on either buildings or stock except that of the Grand Leader, which WIS in a brick building. J. NJ. Fitzhugh owned the building occupied y Rracrato and his loss will amount to $6,O00. J. Poye owned the Valley saloon building and several of t'la smaller buildings that were burned all worth 5000. C.

Plate glass windows Of the McCehe3 Hardin's bakery and RudiseI's dry goods store on the north side of the burned block were broken by the heat The roof of Hardins bakery caught fire and it looked for a while as though many moro buildings would go. If it had not been for the eiTor~s of the volunteer fire department and the fire department of the Iron Moun- tain railroad and a good supply of water from the new municipal plant much more damage would have been done. At one time the general of fices Of the Iron Mountain railway were endangered by fire. All the windows on cne side were broken but the building was saved by local employees.
 Wall & company had just opened their store Saturday. Many of those who had stores burned are prepar- ing to reopen in temporary buildings and J. 'Poye and c. Lang will replace their burned buildings with up-to- date brick storerooms at once A. though this fire will mean a seve'e loss to many persons the town ulti- mately will be benefited by ping r'( of solid block of old frame build ings, which will be replaced by goot brick structures.

can and Robins as a Democrat. The
only difference between the three
men is their difference as MEN and
what they believe in and stand for.
Robins is bigger and better man
as MAN than as a Progressive. His
life has been bigger and broader than
the Progressive platform.

better known as John Hertz, general
manager.
On entering the employ of this
woUld-be monOpOlizer of the taXicab
business of Chicago, you are furnish
ed with very slick-lOOking uniform,
for which you are allowed to pay
$3.50. Then you are ushered before
His ExceIlency the Car for inspec-
ton.
If you meet with His EXcellency's
approval you are then directed to the
drivers room and notified that you
will be called when needed.
After you have waited 4 or hours
you are probably allowed to take a
car to one of the Taxicab Trusts pri-
vate stands for an average of 5 or 6
hours work. for which you receive
the munifcent sum of II cents per
hour.
This will happen about six months.
Then you receive a steady car and
are allowed to work II hours per day
at an enormous salary OF Sl5 Tor "a
hours per week. But in reality you
put in about 10 hours, as you are
not credited with working time until
your car actually leaves the garage.
And, as a rule, you have to loaf
around for two or three hours every
day waiting for your car, so that you
have about So hours per week to
spend with your family.
1 said SIS per week, but you never
receive all of it, as there is always a
little slip in your pay envelope for
charges for breakage or damage to
your car. On payday you must ap-
pear before the aUtOcrat and receive
an o. K. slip, which then entities you
to receive the often very near empty
envelope.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
LAW FOR HoME-WRECKERS
Editor Day Book:-Having read
The Day Book, I know you are a man
of very good opinions. I therefore
ask you to give US your opinion as
to laws covering these questions: Is
it a criminal act to rob man of his
wife and wreck his home? 1 have had
a lengthy talk with a man who has
had the misfortune of having his
home. broken up by a friend who,
when sick and stranded, was taken
into the home he later wrecked. In
speaking of the laws covering this
point, understand that disorderly
conduct is all that can be placed
against such persons. SUpposing now
that the man whose home was
wrecked took the law into his own
hands? Could anyone blame him?
I believe that a man who robs an
other of his home should be punished
just as severely as when he robs of
money. And would like to see such
laws in effect at once, as it is a
terrible ordeal to go through and the
man in most cases is never himself
again. 1 could mention other cases
of this kind, but 1 do not wish to
take up all your time. R. F.
