FOR REBUILDING
Plana for rebuilding tho lakeside
Lumber contpany's plant, destroyed
byjlre Into Saturday nlfht, aro still
In'a formuUtltn Maitn. Nelson
Rounsewnll, manager of thn compan),
Mid this morning there wu nothing
definite to aiiuouee regarding Imme
diate plans (cr rebuilding, although
It U certain the plant will bo replaced.
Defective wiring may havo caused
the fire which caused an estimated
damage of between $70,000 and $7G,
000. Insurance I estimated at be
tween .$35,000 and 140,000. The
exact amount will be known when the
aafe cools enough to be opened.
The lumber stock In the yard wee
aaved. Tho tiro fed br paints and
otto, burned fiercely but the firemen
put up n strong fight to keep It from
spreading to tho adjoining plant and
yard' of Ackley llroe., and were sue
ceaiful, Thn water pressure wm
good, reported Chief Ambrose.
Thn alarm was tolophonod In by
Alice tllehn, who Mid that she had
hardly hung up thn Welter before
ho heard thn fire truck leaving the
engine house.
The Lakeside company, In tho past
year, had Installed much modern
wood machinery and had a very com
plnta plant. Tbore was a consider
able stock or finished doors and (win
dowa and other wood work on hand,
Including the Interior wood work fr-r
the Malln school, all of which was
destroyed.

Insurance Man Say
Fire Well Handled
Joseph Lee, a San rranlsco Insur
ano adjuster, who was'here on busi
ness witnessed the work or the flrr
department at the Lakrsldo Lumber
company flro Baturday night. In
speaking with Mr. Itounsevell yester
day,' he paid high compliments to the
manner In which tho loc.il flro depart
stent handled the blate and to the
adequacy of the water pressure. He
aald he had norer neen hotter hand
ling of a fire anywhere,
There .eems to be an Impression
current that Klamath Kails Is with
out adequate flrn protection and suf
ficient wntor pressure but Mr. Lee,
whcn experience is wide, did not
take tbla view. On the contrary ho
appeared to think that the local flro
fighting facilities woro on n par with
most' country towns and ruperlor to
many.
Fill Silo From 9

L. L. Arnett, Swan lako rancher,
la the first Klamath farmer to .re

very successfully.
