A Deserved Testimonial.

Saturday evening the steamer Gen.
Candy took the passengers of the dis
abled steamer, Z. j. Potter, to Hwaco,
leaving here at 845. The night was
very foggy and dark and Capt Thos.
Parker had great difficulty in reach
ing Iwaco on account of of the many
fish traps and heavy fog, but by very
careful management reached Ilwaco
at 1870 P. NJ. Capt. ]. w. Troop who
was aboard complimented Capt. Par
ker very highly on the able manner
in which he handled the boat. Before
reaching her destination a purse was
made up, creating quite a nice little
fund, and presented to Capt. Parker
for himself and crew.

Another locomotive goes down to
Fl. Stevens to help handle the thou
sand tons of rock daily dumped in the
jetty. This makes four locomotives at
work there. The farther out the jet
ty extends, of course, the more work
is required to handle the rock. This
locomotive is borrowed from the Cas-
cades. There is a new locomotive
now on the way from the east for the
jetty work. When it arrives the fourth
locomotive will be returned to the
Cascades.

OVERRIDING THE THING.
Faisifying The Chart at Gray's HarbOr.

1t is pity to spoil sport, but in an
effort to work off real estate and lots
in ''the city of Gray's harbor," it
looks as if our neighbors to tbe north
are guilty of some ways that are
dark, and methods that are not in ac-
cordance with the requirements of
truth.
We have before us map of Gray's
harbor gotten up Ostensibly to give
accurate representation of the har-
Dor and its entrance, but which is
grossly misleading.
An effort is made to make it ap-
pear that the map agrees with the
correct government map, but inspec-
ton of a government chart shows
wide difference.
All favorable markings are faith
fully reproduced ON the bogus maps,
but where such ominous figures as
"11;" 49," TO-" (meaning depth in
feet at the entrance appear they are
omitted on the map, which is issued by
thousands.
This may not be noticed by ignor-
ant eastern investors, but we would
advise our readers who may contem-
plate a visit to Gray's harbor to in
vest, to look before you leap"
We have nothing to say in dispar-
agement of that country. There is
room for all, and we are pleased to see
its many advantages attracting the
attention of eastern capitalists.
Fraud, however, is being practiced
in an attempt to get people to believe
that there is 27 feet of water where
the government chart shows but 13.
1t is always better to tell the truth
about those things.

Gray's harbor is cursed at present
by the presence of lot of irrespon-
sible boomers" professional rustlers
who work up an excitement, get peo-
pie to buy corner lots" three miles
from anywhere, and about the time
everything has got to the top notch
they clear out and leave their dupes
holding the bag.
The statements made in the pamph-
lets, maps and implied by the pictures
are misleading and have no material
foundation, and Chehalis county is
being injured by these windy schemes.

THE DAILY
HAWAIIAN SUGAR PRODUCTION.
A FIELD For AMERICAN ENTERPRISES.

On the first page will be found a
table showing the ownership, as re-
CARDS nationality, of sugar planta-
tions on these islands. It has been
compiled with great care by Messrs.
Walker and Giffard from official docu-
ments, and includes all the incor-
porated companies or individuals
engaged i'll the production of sugar
cane and manufacture of sugar.
The statement was prepared chiefly
to disprove the assertion made by
Mr.. Kinney, that the planting inter
est on these islands is controlled
by those who were not Americans,
by an overwhelming majority. The
facts and figures presented contra
dict this assertion very plainly.
Facts are stubborn things to dis
prove, especially in this instance,
where out of total of thirty mil
lions invested in sugar, some twenty
three millions are owned by Ameri-
cans, and over fifteen millions owned
In the United States. If we mistake
not, this was the intention Of the
treaty, to encourage and build up
an industry here in which American
and Hawaiian capital might find in
Vestment; and this has been the case
SO that to-day one half of the entire
capital invested in sugar here and
one half the profits derived from il
are owned and distributed In the
United States. If European capital
has been invested here, so much the
better for the increase of local bust
ness and the prosperity of the whole
country. European capital is con
stantly moving to the United States
for investment, and adds largely t.
the prosperity of that country, with
out any one begrudging the intro
duction of new capital simply be-
cause it is foreign capital. Euro
peans migrate to Louisiana, Texas
and Kansas, invest their capital there
In cane and sorghum, and secure the
benefit of any bounty or pro
lection to their industries, and nc
one cries out against this foreign
capital and industry. So let us have
more financial help both from thu
United States and Europe, t.
expand our yet undeveloped coffee
ramie, rice, banana, sugar and othe
Industries, which are capable of be

THE AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL CON.
GRESS.

One of the most important con-
ventions that has assembled of late
years is the International American
Congress, which convened at Wash
ington October I'd, comprising dele
gates from every American govern
ment, excepting Canada, which was
not invited owing to her being de-
tendency of Great Britain, and
therefore unable to act as a Sover-
eign state. The congress will COM
prise over forty delegates, including
some of the most prominent states
men Of the Central and South Am
erican Governments. The countries
represented are: Mexico, Guatemala.
Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa RIGA,
San Salvador, Columbia, Ecuador,
Bolivia, Peru, Chill, Argentine Re-
public, Uruguay, Brazil, Venezuela.
and Hawaii.
On the Sd of October, the delegates
started on tour ofinspection through
the United States, purposing to visit
the New England States, then west
10 Omaha and st. Louis, returning
via Cincinnati and Pittsburg, arriv
ing at Washington about November
18th. They are, in fact, the guests
of the United States, and the tour is
designed to give them an idea of the
progress and condition of the coun-
try. 1t is, in short, peace congress

FROM THE BRITISH WAR OFFICE.

England Wants to Know the Facilities
for Transporting Troops Through
Canada.
MONTREAL, October 10-"To the
Deputy Acknowledgements of the
several military districts Of Canada:
On receipt Of this communication
you will Immediately take steps to
ascertain in your several districts the
fullest information regarding all
facilities for the transportation Of
troops from one part of the country
to another, giving details as to the
means of transport by rail and water,
and also ascertain how many horses
are available in your district at short
notice for this purpose of military
transport"
Such is the order that has just been
received by the commanders of the
military districts in the Dominion
from the British War Office AS
news of the order became public, as
might have been expected, it caused
considerable excitement in civic as
well as military circles, in the latter
of which extraordinary activity pre-
walls.
What is the cause of such man
date from such quarter? Is Great
Britain preparing to engage in I'M
mediate war with some other power,
and is Canada to be unknowingly
drawn into the struggle? Such are
the questions asked by citizens.
By many the order is considered
as hint that the alleged agreement
between England and the United
States on the Behring Sea difficulty
is not satisfactory, and that England
wishes to show the United States
that she is ready for business.

soon entered into conversation with
him, asking him all about trade, the

considerable information. Cleveland,
on the contrary, was silent and ex-
