The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1915-06-05
Commencement

Wednesday night, at the Colville
theater, marked the graduation of the
ninth class from the Colville high
school "a class of "a young people who
carry diplomas from an accredited high
school which ranks among the best in
the northwest. The exercises of the
evening, and the events for several
weeks preceding, made commence
ment of 1915 most important and in
teresting event.
The baccalaareate sermon was
preached last Sunday evening at the
M. E. church by Rev. G. E. Counts OF
the Christian church. The auditorium
and balcony of the church were crowd
ed to capacity. Excellent music was
furnished by the combined choirs of
the various churches, which had been
drilled for the occasion by Mrs. Levi
Clark, who deserves much credit for
her splendid work. The minister read
the 18th chapter of First Corinthians
and based his subject on faith, hope
and love, emphasizing the fact that the
greatest characters are moulded and
the highest and noblest deeds are ac-
complished through the influence OF
these three infinitely essential powers.
The graduation exercises Wednesday
night at the theater brought larger
attendance than the capacity OF the
house could accommodate, and were in
teresting throughout. The music by
the high school talent was particularly
appreciated.

EASTERN CITIES
GAIN in BUILDING
Report from ll6 Shows an
Improvement for the
Month of March.

Building returns for March are ir-
regular, and while evidences of inn
prOvement are more numerous in tho
Eastern half Of the country, poor re-
turns from the Northwest, Southwest
and Far West more than counterbal-
ance the first mentioned gains, the re-
suit being a grand total of building
expenditure below that Of March a
year ago, ll6 cities returns furnish
ing the basis for these statements.
Reports to Bradstreet's journal from
1l6 cities show total Of 2l,l50 per
mits granted in March, a decrease Of
26 per cent from March year ago.
and a total estimated expenditure OF
$3.50, 426, a decrease OF 11.5 per cent
from the like month q year ago. In
February, il might be noted, the per-
mits fell off SIS per cent from the like
month a year ago, while expenditures
decreased t2.4 per cent. In January the
decrease in permits was 1874 per cent,
and in values the loss Vas So per cent.
The really encouraging feature here
shown is that the decrease IN the num-
Der of permits almost reached the van
ishing point in March. and the details
of these returns show that the in
creases in permits are no longer con-
fined 10 New England and the Middle
States, but are now TO be found also
in the Middle West and South.

BILLS FAVORED BY
ADVISORY COUNCIL
Organization Supporting
Act to Repeal Section
of Tax Law.

The Advisory Council Of Real Estate
interests, through its law committee,
Walter Lindner, chairman, approves OF
the passage of the following measures
introduced in the Legislature:
A bill to repeal Section AZ OF the tax
law. The effect Of this would be 70 re-
peal the set-off which public service
corporations are entitled 10 make from
taxation Of their special franchises.
The set-off consists Of sums paid IN
the nature Of taxes. The result Of this
repeal would be to increase the cltys
revenue by a considerable amount, and
would be Just, because franchise IS
property. TO be assessed as such, and
the set-ofT therefrom of special charges
is not logical taxation. The burden Of
such charges must be taken into con
alteration by the assessing officers IN
determining the value of the franchise.
Thus Justice would be done 70 the COM
NAMES and the revenue be increased.
A bill 10 establish a central purchas-
ing bureau in the City OF New YORK,
the operation Of which would erect
great economies.
A bill 20 amend the rapid transit act
= permit notifications IN contracts TOR
the construction of rapid transit work,
10 enable the city to amend the FIFTY
ninth Street route by placing two tun,,
nels under SiXtieth Street and tunnel
under the East River. The Council fee 3
that the construction of these tunnels
would be for the best interests or
Queens. and the improvement would be
a nermanent one Of lasting value.

greatest income producing property IN
which could invest my money.
"It was for variety Of reasons thar
| selected this particular plot for the
erection of the tallest building IN the
world. Here is the heart Of the money
interests Of America. Opposite IS the
PostofIice. near which many important
interests centre. A few hundred feet
away is the Brooklyn Bridge. which
daily pours its hundreds of thousands
into Manhattan. Brooklyn and Queens,
with their vast population, will grow
immeasurably within the next few
years. and Brooklyn Bridge will be the
terminus to which scores of thousands
will come.
THE city is spending millions IN the
erection of its new municipal building
where will focus the interests that are
concerned with its government. Inc
location Of the new courthouse, near
BY. will make il necessary for lawyers
70 seek quarters closer 70 the court
house.
There is the great territory between
Broadway and the Hudson River now
covered with old buildings that must
inevitably within a few years be sup
planted with modern structures. These
are some of the reasons that led me TO
look upon this plot as ideal for the
erection Of the WOolworth Building.

land valued at S1,5OO,OOO. It will be
known as the Standard Arcade.
Vincent Aston recently showed his
faith in the lower section of the city
by having plans filed for a seven-story
Office and store building to occupy the
southerly site of the old Aston House
at Broadway and Nesey Street. This
part OF the old landmark was taken
down for the new subway, which turns
westward at this point.
For some time II was believed that
the main Post Office facing City Hall
would be removed by the government TO
another location. But such PROPOSE
tion was put to rest for long time
at least when it was decided to make
extensive alterations on the old prem
ises. The facade Of the structure IS
now being cleaned and new ROOF IS

of Wall and Broad Streets, last No
vember. Its whte-faced front Of
Tennessee marble, denoting eKtraordl-
nary structural strength, is impress
sivelv set oil by sombre colcrs of
many nearby structures. For a long
time the Morgan site was the costllest
marcel of real estate in the city, If not
in the United States. Furthermore, 1t
had the distinction of providing the
most expensive home in this country
for banking house, the site being IN
the heart of the financial centre OF
the New World. Within recent years,
however, the high-water mark for
realty in this country has been PAID
for the site at the northwest corner
of Wall and Nassau Streets, on prop
