Jeweler, opposite Windsor Hotel : SITUATIONS AND HELP. WANTED--Position as bookkeeper. by steady, married man. First-class references, Apply, H. Keefer, C. M. G., says: 2 “The substitution of electricity for steam as the motive power for railways on many roads is regarded as inevitable sooner or later. . It has already taken place as regards suburban railways, notably in the case ef the Quebec, Charlevoix & Montmorenci road and the Hull & Aylmer railway, where water is doing. the work which has hereto- fore been done by coal. The chief obstacles to an early change on the larger roads are the hundreds of millions invested in locomotives and the very large outlay required to equip steam roads with the elec- tric system. “The principal inducement would be the passenger service, owing to the increased speed possible, it be- ing confidently stated fhat, with electricity, a speed considerably over 100 miles an hour could be attained. Moreover, there would be entire abolition of the poisonous smoke which drops upoa the sleeping car in preference to any coach ahead of it. ‘‘While the conversion of trunk lines would be attended with a cost which is for the present prohibitory, this objection does not apply to new lines, which may be- worked inde- pendently or in with: electric ones. When the time ar- rives for such railways, water power will have a field of usefulness of which we can at present form little conception.” : A TIME TO PAY DEBTS. “Now is the best possible time to pay debts and .not to incur them.” That’s a bit of advice from the Engineering News. The Chronicle » respectfully offers it to every citizen of Spokane as the best possible answer to thequestion: ‘‘Howcan we make prosperity stay?” This is not a question of .politics. No system. of finance, no theories of statesmen can avoid the results that must follow a period of debt- creating—of wild, heedless specu- lation, The nation, the city, the man that will adopt this one simple rule—debt-paying—-during this time of prosperity need not worry about the return of ‘‘hard times.” We are now in the midst of such a season of business expansion as has not been seen in a long time. Speculation of all sorts is rife. Companies are being floated with * mullions of dollars of paper capital, and with little except great expecta- tions to show for it. Some of these concerns have bought up some of the abandoned and obsolete factor- ies which failed to survive the com- Petition of 1896 and 1897, and Parade a list’ of such properties as evidence of their solid foundation. Manufacturing enterprises are ex- panding. Concerns which only a very short time ago were at their wit’s end to obtain orders enough to keep them from shutting down, are making large investments to increase their capacity. All these things tend to swell the volume of apparent demand, and to - force prices higher and higher until the bubble will finally burst. Banks can find no market for their goods, purchases decrease. Night. follows day Cae -thrown out ofemployment and their fol- J..

F Real hand-painted landscapes and gorgeous. chromos, portraits of royalties and pictures of palaces, nightmares in colorings and inof- fensive monotones—all of them and about 100 others are represented in the art gallery which Agent Ruff of the Red Mountain railway is offer- ing on the bargain counter this week. The consignment—six big boxes full—came roaring out from To- ronto by double fast freight two years ago. The bunch was. billed to ‘Campbell Bros., furniture deal- ers, who were then doing business here. The freight bill on it was $113, and the Messrs. Campbell nearly fell dead when it was pre- ‘gented. There was some mistake in‘the shipping, evidently, and they refused to accept the goods. The art firm back east was equally de- termined not to accept the return of the goods, and as a consequence they have been in the . warehouse - ever since: Now Agent Ruff has orders’ to sell them for the freight, and he is open to cvertures. Louis Blue has been engaged this afternoon in king a critical tion of the bunch. Should they come up to this art standards he may purchase the “lot. Mr. Blue is undecided whether to nail them up in the woods to give his timbermen an art education or to throw one in with every barrel of beer from the Lion brewery. a Fo Cure a Cold In One Day Take Laxative Bromine Quinine ‘ablets.
