LAKEVIEW. OREOON, APR. 2ft. iHK.
SAN FRANCISCO.
The ffront conflagration which hns
befallen Snn Frnneiin'o in one of the
most awful ratastrophies of historic
time. While the loss of life hns not
teeu so groat as has resulted from
some other historical conflagrations,
yet the suffering of tho people and
destruction of property exceeds any
thing recorded in ancient or modern
history. A nnguiilcieut city with
splendid buildings, containing a pop
ulation of more than 400,000 people,
completely destroyed is a national
calamity. But the California spirit
of progress and development will soon
assert itself and a new and grater city
will be built on the ruius of tho old
more beautiful and supstantial than
ever before.
In this connection tho following
list of great fires in the United States
is of interest :
New York City Dec. 1(3, 1S35, loss
$33,000,000. Pittsburg, Pa. April
10, 1S15, loss $10,000,000 Sacramento,
Calif., Nov. 12., 1832, los $10,000,000.
Chicago, I1L Oct. 8, ISTl.loss, $168,
000, COO. Boston, Mass. Nov. 9, 1872,
loss $75, 000, (XX). Baltimore, Md. Feb.
7, lD04,loss, 35,000,000.
The propertfy of San Francisco was
insured for $2300,00,000, and the In
surance companies with magnanimous
liberality have announced that every
loss covered by insurance will be
promptly paid in full. This action of
the insurance companies will not only
prevent any fear of panic in business
affairs, but will insure the prompt
rebuilding of the city.
j hear the news or if anything occurs
here that outsiders want to .hear
'about, the old spider web fails.
Everybody is sore about the uncer
tainty of tho line, but no one attaches
auy blame to Mr. Burke, operator at
this end, as they know that ho has
done his lesl with the material back
of him. Ho is a first class operator
and with a decent line would give
good service.
There is something wrong in tho
construction of tho line in some way.
There have Weu various charges made
against the management; alwolute in
competency, indifference to tho inter
ests of the people who support the
lino, attempts to hold-up and various
other things have Wen said, none of
which we can vouch for, but we can
say that the service is rotteu and not
worth three bits to tho country. If
the management pursues a grafting
policy and attempts to hold-up the
people at every opportunity or if it is
bought off on certain occasions an
other line should be built to some
point and placed under management
whose principles are above price, and
if incompetency is the fault the people
here should make some move to cause
the defect to be remedied.
What the people of Lakeview and
Lake county want is an efficient tele
graph service, and the way to get it
is the methods pursued by our busi
ness men in other things ; put their
heads together and make a start and
never let up till something is accom
plished. In the last few years four
telephone systems have been com
menced and finished and those that
are finished are as serviceable as any
in Oregon or any where else ; they
are perfect and those that have only
reached the commencment stage have
begun in a way that assures the same
degree of perfection that attaches to
completed systems. With success and
prosperity on every baud no one can
look upon the erection of a good tel
ephone line to Klamath Falls in any
other light than if undertaken it will
be carried through and successfully.
There is to be a telephone line built
The opportunity will present itself
the coming summer for the people of
Lakeview to do themselves proud in
the way of entertaining 230 of Uncle
Sam's brave boys from the Vancouver

now behoves our people to make) Falls
ready for their reception and show to
Uncle Sam that the 6tranger may en

tiful hospitality and feast his hungry
eyes upon our superb scenery. No
little pains should be spared to pre
pare a welcome for these boys in blue
such as they may regard as one of the
warmest and most cordial they will
have received on their trip across the,
state. This is an oppurtunity that
few towns the importance of ours sel
dom enjoy and we should make the
best of it. A committee should be
appointed at once to communicate
with the Commander and fur
nish him with he information he de
sires and etxend to him the welcome
he deserves for his heed of our exis-tance.

As an aftermath of the great con
flagration in California the zealous
news rustlers started a smallpox
rumor that spread over the country
like wild fire. The associated press,
however, deny that smallpox is raging
in the ruined city. The rumor was
an absurd one in the first place, as it
was started five days after the earth
quake, which was impossible, unless
the disease had been scattered before
the panic occurred.

A meeting of the business men
should be called at once for the pur
pose of building a telegraph line to
Klamath Falls. The investment would
be a good one, besides paying 10 to 15
per cent interest, good telegraph line
would be a great satisfaction to the
people and its value to them in times
of need would be inestimable.
Tho people of the whole country
are interested in the amount Rocke
feller has donated to the sufferers of
San Francisco, and the amount is of
very little note to Mr. Rockefeller
himself. lie simply names the sum
and charges it up to the users of oil,
to be repaid to him in installments of
possibly a half cen per gallon.
