The Old National bank of | Spokane in submitting its report | upon trade conditions on July 17, had the following to say of the paper situation: The paper situation is show- ing real improvement. The out- put of American mills is increas- much larger than a year ago and | exports much less. | With wood- pulp imports, decreased exports and a rvadidly decreasing con- sumption the paper situation should now right itself within a few weeks. The market proceeded to) “right itself” by staging one of | the sharpest increases in print; that has occured in all the time| of the rapid advances of paper | prices. - It is now quoted at $16 | a hundred and still going up. | The reports of trade condi- tions indicate that paper should | have reached its pinnacle price | and should now be_ having a downward trend instead of an upward shoot. The present market condition only indicates that the paper producers, like the gas and sugar producers, are going to “get law and before congress ‘shall finally do something with trade Congress adjourned without} taking up the woodpulp situation | and it is likely that the next con-| gress will talk the league of na-| tions to death again before it ‘will get around to considering relief for the consumers of art- ‘icles which it is patent are being | held up in price. The paper trust is fast sending | newspaper owners out of busi- ness. It would serve them) right and our congress right if a} gigantic boycott were organized | and the papers all over the coun- try should go on strike and for about a month refuse to issue a paper. News print would come down at the end of that time all} right enough and congress would be meeting in special session to find relief for the long suffering! newspaper producer and public. —Pend’Oreille Review. | One hears much of the “under- | paid” school teacher but there has been a marked increase in the pay of teachers recently and} they appear to be about as well| | paid as members of any profes-| sion. A young woman, out of ‘college two years and having taught two nine-months terms of school, was offered a place in an Idaho school at $1350 for nine months but refused it to ac- cept a position at $1500 for nine months. The superintendent of the school which offered her $1350 for the term is getting $2,600 for nine months school and that can hardly be regarded as a low salary any more than can the pay for a young woman who gets $15 500 for three quart- ers of a year’s work at six hours a day for five days in the week. | ——Moscow Mirror. It is a criminal act to leave a camp fire burning, or even smouldering, in this state and the persons doing this should be| vigorously prosecuted. Millions! dollars worth of timber and oth- er property are destroyed in the west annually because some} careless camper, generally a non- resident with nothing to lose and} no taxes to pay in the state} where his act causes the loss, | leaves a camp fire burning, or| throws down a lighted match! after lighting a cigarette.
