JAMES T. SALVAGE
	James T. Salvage.  In the industrial world of Stevens county,
the subject of this sketch stands well, having been connected with the
manufacture of lumber and lumber products here for more than a decade.
He has built numerous mills throughout the country and is now erecting
one at Meyers Falls.  His home is at Addy where he owns a good residence,
a number of lots and other property.  He also owns property in Spokane,
Colville, and Meyers Falls.  James T. Salvage was born in Marcelles,
New York, on June 21, 1867, the son of John and Emma (Philips)
Salvage, natives of England and New York, respectively.  In 1869 the 
family moved to Iowa, where they farmed for nine years.  Then they
journeyed on to Kansas, and there the mother died in 1885.  In 1888
the father came to Stevens county where he now resides.  They were the 
parents of five children: James T., the subject of this article; John F.;
George E.; Carry and William.  At the age of eleven, james left school
at Butler county, in Kansas, and went to work on a sheep ranch.  He
followed that for a good many years.  Upon arriving in Stevens county
Mr. Salvage embarked in the saw milling business and has given his 
entire attention to it since that date.  He is known as one of the
most skillful saw mill men in the Colville country.
	In 1893 Mr. Salvage married Miss Emma, daughter of George
and Mercy (Hood) Chamberlain, natives of New York.  From New York, 
the parents came to Nebraska, thence to Kansas and in 1890 to the Big
Bend country.  Later they came to Stevens county and here the father 
died in 1894.  Mrs. Salvage has four brothers, George S., William,
Frank, and Theodore.  To Mr. and Mrs. Salvage have been born four
children: Fred, Ralph, Dora and May.  Mr. Salvage is liberal in
