Fire destroys Prairie View and other late July reports
Prairie View, a 250 resident town in Lake county, was destroyed by a fire that spared only the Soo Line station and a general store owned by Albert Mather after passengers and crew saved the station during the blaze. In Washington, Democratic leaders promote “Peace, progress, prosperity” as campaign slogan and say contributions will be examined by source rather than amount. Elsewhere, Mexican forces move against Lower California to quell rebel Esteban Cantu, and other scattered notes report a soldier’s death at a home for veterans, a family tragedy in Burlington, an abandoned Camp Taylor, and Bolshevik occupation of Brody in Galicia.
