John P. VoIImed Passes

John P. Vollmer. without
doubt the richest man in the
state of Idaho and one of the
early pioneers of the central Ida
no country, passed away at his
home in Lewiston Monday after
noon after an illness of several
years. duration. The deceased
was born in Germany in 1847
and came to Lewiston in 1870
where he resided continuously
until his death. On coming to
Lewiston he engaged in the mer-
camille business and later had
stores at several points in central
Idaho and eastern Washington.
Later he also engaged in banking
and other enterprises and his
wealth grew until he became a
millionaire and known for years
as one of the wealthiest men in
the west. Besides owning much
farm land and stock in various
enterprises he was owner of q
large block of stock in the North
ern Pacific railway and was state
agent for that road for years.
He was one of Lewiston's most
progressive citizens and his los {
will be deeply felt by the resi-
dents of that city. The remains
were laid to rest there Wednes.

Suppose every business man in
town took as much interest in the
UNFOLDING of the town and for
warding all public enterprises as
the newspaper man. He works
f or railroads, manufacturers,
schools, churches, good streets,
roads, urges, pleads, scolds and
badgers and cavorts around gen.
orally. Imagine his feelings when
some lame string-halted kind of
a fellow reproaches him because
he don't boom things enough. If
the town does not boom and the
prices of real estate advance and
the owners grow rich from the
result of his labor, he makes
nothing by it. He is like the poor
boy at the circus-he can stand
and look at the pictures without
the necessary quarter to gain ad-
mission.
