TO USE HUNTS ROADS.
Hill Will Probably Take in the
Gray's Harbor Line.
UNION PACIFIC SUSPENSION.
Continuing the Big Rock Cut-Men
swarming Into Portland-Trees
Bother Railroads.

TACOMA, Dec. 20.-Work on the rock
cuts at CAROLS, near Kalama, has been or
dered suspended by the Union Pacific.
King & Dickinson, who have charge of the
work, will discontinue the Job as soon as
practicable-in about three weeks Thirty
men are employed. One hundred thousand
cubic yards of rock was ordered removed
according to the original contract, at a
cost of 100000. The Northern Pacinc will
bear part of the expense and use one-half
of the cut.
The opinion prevails that the Great
Northern will join with the Union Pacific
in completing its Washington extension,
the Great Northern to complete and utilize
the road from Centralia to Gray's Harbor,
begun by Hunt, of the Hunt system of
roads in Oregon. Several friends of Jim
Hill have been in the city for week, and
have looked the ground over carefully. OF
the 100000 Union Pacinc terminal sub
sidy fund, $4,000 remains to be raised.
W. j. Thompson, chairman of the solicit
ing committee, has personally guaranteed
the raising of the full amount.
Six cable grip ears for the Tacoma Rail-
way and Motor Company's Hill street lines
arrived today. Superintendent Cummings
says the cable line will be III operation
early in January.
Employees of the Northern Pacific are be-
ing paid off earlier than usual on account
of the HOLIDAYS.

WELL WORTH SEEING.
Crowds That Gather to Look at a
Splendid Display.

The drilling rain of last night could
not keep at home the crowds of Christmas
buyers that thronged the business thor
oughfares and crowded the stores. Among
the many elegant establishments that were
crowded with admiring visitors and happy
Christmas purchasers, none attracted
more attention than the beautiful and
artistic jewelry and diamond palace of
Albert Hansen, at 706 Front street, in the
Sullivan block, between Cherry and Col
umbia streets. 1t is seldom that one has
so large a variety of elegant goods TO Sc
lect from as are displayed at Hansen's. Sill
yer ware in profusion from the noted
factory at Gorham. All designs of solid
sterling ware. while for those whose purses
will not permit the purchase of them, a
vast array of plated ware is exhibited.
Large as the collection of silver and plate
is Mr.. Hansen yesterday received another
large consignment which will be put on
sale and inspection tomorrow. Gold
watches. with cases of all patterns, enclos-
ing movements from every noted factory
in the world, diamonds of all sizes in pro-
fusion and an unusual stock of jewelrv of
unique and late designs, are arranged in
the show cases. Marble and onyx clocks
OF every shape and price are also carried by
this establishment. Mr.. Hansen has a
large stock of Steinway and other leading
makes of pianos. His elegant establish
ment is well worth a visit, and sightseers
as well as purchasers are cordially well
coined

FROM THE WATERS EDGE.
Many Visitors Find Great Attractions In
the shipping.


The attractions of the water front are
strongest with visitors who have seen little
shipping, but admirers of the stately
vessels that sail in proudly and ride at
anchor in the harbor are found every day
enjoying the sight, and among them are
many who have lived in Seattle for years.
There are now dozen great ships moored
alongside the wharves, and others out IN
the stream waiting for opportunity to
come up to the docks for cargo One trim
schooner, the Iva, perhaps the hand
soonest among all in port, has drawn
crowds of spectators, and the beauty other
hull, with its long, gently curving lines,
her tall, tapering spars, and maze OF slen-
der ropes that lead TO the dizzy heights
above the sails, are studied with pleasure
by every one. Yesterday, at the waters
edge near the vessel the grass was
fresh and green, and flowers were bloom
ing as beautiful as if it were June instead
OF December. Thousands stopped TO adj
mire the view; and from the vessel their
gaze fell and rested with delight on the
fragrant blossoms. In the other window
was seen liner exhibition of flowers, with
miniature representationof greenhouse
filled with rare plants. Both displays are
worthy OF high praise, and Hyams, Pau
son d Co. received many compliments on
the appearance of their store front. The
stock of holiday novelties in gentlemen's
wear to be seen in the many departments
of their great establishment is as wonder
full as the scenes outside, and it has more
lasting value.

FIVE YEARS AGO AND NOW.
One Old Landmark Among the Many
New Places.

New Places.
There has been great change along
Front street" remarked one gentleman to
his companion last evening, as the pair
stood gazing at the beautiful display of ar
tistic jewelry, diamonds and novelties in
the show window of Frisch Bros. lewelry
establishment at TO Front street, between
Cherry and Columbia. lone year ago not
a single jewelry store on the street: now as
another Christmas is near of approach
there are several. Look at this splendid
establishment. 1t Is where / bought my
Christmas presents i've years ago and
where intend TO purchase one or two that
l shall make at this one.''
'Such articles as those displayed in that
window are not to be unexcelled any,
where" remarked the other gentleman,
land must come pretty steep out in this
section of the country"
Not at all You would actually be
surprised at their cheapness. They are
positively sold at from % to so per cent.
less than similar articles are in many other
cities" The two gentleman entered the
store, which was crowded with buyers of
Christmas presents, and it is safe to con-
clude that they purchased their intended
gifts at satisfactory prices.
The opinion expressed by the gentleman
to his friends is one cordially endorsed by
many citizens of Seattle, who have dealt
with this reliable firm. They are among
the leading jewellers and watchmakers in
the city, and the elegant line of gold
watches and jewelry of all kinds which
they carry, would be hard to find sur
passed anywhere.

THE PASSING THRONG.
What Men Talk About in the
Hotels and Streets.
POLITICS OVER IN NTTITAs.
Squire Is Gaining Strength There-The
Freight Blockade = Postal Saw
ings Banks-Mount Rainier.

Mr.. Fred Bausman, an Ellensburg law
yer and one of the leading Democrats not
only OF Kittitas county but of that part of
the state, is at the Rainier hotel. "In the
senatorial race said he last evening,
Judge w. H. Calkins had at the start
something of lead in our county. You
see, the county had been in his judicial
district. OF the three votes from the
county, it was believed at one time that
he had two But understand that it is
nov settled that Squire has one and Calk-
ms one, while the third is Democratic.
MY belief is that the Democrats in the
next legislature should cast one or two
ballots for the Democratic nominee, and
then. If no Republican has been chosen, TO
throw their votes for the best Republican.
The Democrats cannot under any clreum-
stances get the senatorship, and their vote
for one of their own party viii be purely
honorary. A large number OF bills VIII
come up whose passage IS imperative 10
the welfare of the state. With SO much
important legislation pending, think the
Democrats should use every effort TO
shorten the senatorial contest, and devote
all the time possible to law-making."
Mr.. James Hamilton Lewis, of this city,
who was listening To the conversation,
said: II agree with You there. To pro-
long the fight viii be to the detriment of
the state; especially since the legislature
has only sixty days III which TO transact
oil its business Accordingly | shall use
what influence may have among my
Democratic friends to see that after the
usual compliment TO the nominee of our
party, their votes go to the Republican
who best can represent us at Washington
City"
Mr.. Bausman then continued 'The
theme uppernost in the mind of kittitas
county is the freight blockade. The North
Urn Pacific seems utterly unable to move
the produce of the country. Further east
the wheat is piled up awaiting shipment;
but with us the staple is hay. You know
our soil is very productive, and the crop
has been enormous. The hay is stacked
III the fields, at the railway stations and
along the road, waiting for cars. The
Northern Pacific has taken away good
deal in all. bat what it has carried off
seems but q drop in the bucket.
The road seems TO be supplying all the
cars it can, and to be running trains TO the
full capacity OF the track, but the crop is
too big for it To handle. With double
track and all the trains that could run on
il. the road would be barely able to cope
with the situation.
= II was just so last year, and it seems as
If the condition of affairs might have been
foreseen and provided for. There is GER
tainly much complaint from the farmers.
THE mineral resources of the county are
developing very finely, and are giving us
great encouragement

THREE BANKING PLANS.
Major y. II. Hayden Talks of Senator
Stanford's Scheme.

Senator Leland Stanford's plan of hav-
ing the government issue loans at per
cent. on land strikes me as being a bold
hit of demagoguery, said Major J. r.
Hayden, manager of the Peoples Savings
bank, yesterday. at can hardly be meant
IN earnest, and is simply intended TO
please the ignorant. Perhaps it's phase
of the Henry George movement for the
naturalization of land.
.'One of the most interesting of the
many plans have seen proposed lately is
that of having the country divided into
three big districts, each of which is pro-
vided with big central bank that can
authorize the issue of United States notes.
Then when bank in that district wants
to issue more notes il need not be limited
by the government bonds ii holds, but can
take TO the central bank its good collat-
eTal, mortgages and the like, and receive
bank notes 70 a certain per cent. of the coll
lateral it puts up. These notes are then
put out by the bank and the circulating
medium OF the country Is thus increased
and the money, or rather notes, can he
issued III whatever part of the country it is
needed. OF course objections can be found
TO this plan.
Il have been interested in watching the
growth of the postal savings bank system
IN Japan. The increase in the savings de-
posted at the banks is enormous, and as
this is invested in productive enterprises
the advantage to the country is greater
than If the money were simply spent on
passing needs.
Il should like to see postal savings sys-
TEN in this country. Several times the
plan has been proposed. That of having
the government guarantee n certain low
rate OF interest on deposits in the postal
banks, and then turn the money over to
the regular banks for use would make il
possible TO operate the system without
erowding ont the regular banks. The gov
eminent would not pay as much interest
as the common savings banks hut the
government guarantee would attract de-
positors. The difference between the in
terest paid by the government and that
paid to the government by the banks that
receive the deposits from it would make
mp for the cost of handling the money and
insure the government from the loss by
the possible breaking of individual banks.h

REPAIRS AT THE JAIL.
A Woman's Cell and a Black Hole fol
the UnruIy.

Taking advantage of the appropriation of
500 made by the police commissioners
few days ago for lumber to make hunks for
the "women's department" in the city Jail,
Captain John Kelly yesterday put force
of TRUSTEES at work to Tx up the Jail.
In the room upstairs the women prison
ers are usually kept, half dozen new
hunks were also made and bedding will
also be provided. Down below where the
bad men are locked up, a cell of punish
ment, called by Captain Kelly the ''black
hole" has been made. 1t is an SKIS feet
heavily boarded affair and can be shut up so
that tits totally dark inside. No furniture or
bedding of any kind will be put in this
place, and when a tough becomes rebel
lious he will be thrown into the "black
hole" and there kept in darkness on a
bread and water diet until he comes
around" and agrees TO work and behave
himself.
Double doors have been put in in place
of the one door at the Terrace street en-
trance of the upstairs Office, and the inside
of the station has also been materially i'm
proved.
