the benefit OF the low prices

BLANKETS have undergone

White Blankets in our house.
We have bought largely of

CABLE To VANCOUVER ISLAND A late
Ottawa telegram brings this bit of in
terestinR Information IL will be re-
membered that some time since the Do
minion Government refused to allow
the American Telegraph Company to
land the cable on Canadian territory at
vancouver Island, desiring to prevent
Americans from entering the Dominion
IN competition with the existing Cana
dian companies. This dog in the
manager" policy shown towards the
United States was severely criticised at
the time, without, however, changing
the minds of the Government. Ii now
turns out that the Dominion Govern
ment desires to run cable across the
Sound from Victoria, i. g., to Wash.
ihRton Territory, but remembering, no
doubt, the manner in which Americans
were refused similar privilege, the
United States authorities now decline
to grant permission to the Canadian
Government 10 land. The matter was
laid before Secretary of State Chaplain
recently, who has promised to look into
Il. The cable, which was imported from
England IN March, lies idle in the Vic
toria warehouse. The Superintendent
OF Government Telegraphs leaves i'm.
mediately for British Columbia 10 try
and settle the difficulty.

BENEFITS Of THE FIRE LIMITS
ORDINANCE.
[ Tacoma News.

The wisdom Of the city fathers in
passing the fire limit ordinance il
shown by the substantial buildings go
ing mp within this limit. When the or
dinance was passed there we're but five
brick buildings IN the city. Now, ex-
Guiding the Tacoma Hotel, there are IL
fine bricks, either finished or in course
of construction. 1t is safe to say that
but for this ordinance the entire length
of Pacific avenue would have been built
up solid with wooden SHELLS, and this
in spite of the lessons taught by the re-
cent fires, rs the love of gain IL too
strong to cause owners 20 build for the
interests of the city.
Owing TO the increased number of
buildings rents would probably have
been cheapened. but the insurance
companies would certainly have raised
their rates, and the larger part of the
money saved in rents sent ont OF the
country to enrich foreign corporations.
The fire ordinance is good thing. and
next year we expect that the fire limits
will be extended to embrace other
streets

CHEAP TRAssPoRTATIos.-W soc by
our eastern exchanges that millers in
Washington Territory are shipping
extra -four TO Boston, and selling 1t in
that market for s. per 1876 pounds, all
in cloth. Freights by the Northern Pa
eific railroad To New England must be
very low. IL there is any profit left to the
shipper at this low figure. We know
that wheat is being carried across the
continent from Oregon and Washington
Territory cheaper than il can be sent
direct by sea around Cape Horn to Eu-
rope. Composition in this carrying
trade is very rife. and II the same is
long continued, possibly the railroads
will carry wheat and flour for the fan Of
the thing.--.S. r. Com. Herald.

The YAKIMA HoP CRop.-It is estima.
ted that there are in the vicinity OF
Yakima at least l65 acres of hops.
Surprising that they will yield on the
average 1900 pounds per acre, the total
yield will yield the sun of 2l7,5OO
pounds, which. if sold at 10 cents per
pound, will amount to $4,000. That
sum scattered among our people will do
much toward relieving the present
stringency in money matters, and we
suppose that there is good time com.
ing. This estimate has been purposely
put at q low figure. While in most hop
countries 15C9 pounds per acre is ecu
sidered an enormous yield. here our hop
raisers are disappointed il the crop falls
below that figure, and n much larger
yield Is the rule. Mr.. Charles Carpen-
ter, our pioneer hop grower, has Just
finished picking two acres, that yielded
