j. +. Wardner, than whom there is no
| more popular and better known man in |
| three states, returned to Fairhaven on
Sunday morning, after a few weeks alb
| sence. Mr.. Wardner was extremely busy
yesterday, but a HERALD man met him
for few moments at the Cascade club.
In speaking of the Blue Canyon coal mine,
he said: This mine produces excellent
coal for gas producing purposes, and the
entire output will probably be consumed
by the gas works here, and those Of other
Sound cities, and Portland and San Fran
cisco. 1t is, without doubt, the best gas
coal produced on the coast, and is even
better than Australian. ! have disposed
of my entire interest in the mine, but
viii control the sale of its product in
Portland, Oakland and San Francisco,
The San Francisco gas works, alone,
use 400 tons daily. The company will
begin its shipment with as little delay as
! possible.
{ "The reports from the Boston mine, !"
l. said Mr.. Wardner, ARE OF "a character
d, that fully sustans all that we expected of
il, and | expect, in the near future, that
= will devote my entire time to Fairhaven

will be the point for the smelling of the
ores of the Cascades. There is not such
/ another south to San Francisco, or north
0 to Alaska, where ores can be laid
u down as chelply, or are so
: easily obtained. / hope to see the time
G when this will be the greatest smelling

continued Mr. Wardner, sis this:-A man

L haven, and that he halls from such a city.
c The kind of people living here can't be
e beaten: the clubs and hotels, the electric
b lights, in fact all the modern improve
4 ments are here, and as good as the best in
any other city, and superior to many.
And the people, as | said, no matter how

HOME FOLKS AND VISITORS

90. Hill, who is interested in num-
Der of fine claims in the Cascade district,
came down from the mountains on Satur-
day. lie reports everything active in
the district, numbers OF people going in
all the time and business booming. Loca-
tions are being made daily. and every
thing looks promising. Work on the Bos-
ton mine is progressing steadily, and a
good deal of ore is being piled on the
dump. There is said Mr.. Hill. "no
doubt OF the richness OF the mine. That
fact is now well established, and it will
prove one of the best in the United States.
There are other good claims as we'll, and
the Cascade district is just on the eve of a
wonderful development. When 1t be-
comes generally known that this is one OF
the greatest silver mining districts in the
world there will be no lack of ca capitalists
to take hold OF the mines and develop
them. There are fortunes for many
people 10 these same Cascades, the extent
of which, is still hard TO determine. The
ore is all high grade. aud 1t is unlimited
in quantity. Fairhaven people don't
realize the importance of a mining dis
trict, such as this, lying right at their
very doors. 1t is well worth looking
after, at any rate" Mr.. Hill returRs to
the Cascades today.

Is anybody making an effort to in
duce the Sehome school district to
join with Fairhaven in the high school
proposition? All the people of Fair
haven whom HERALD reporters have
talked with on the subject, favor the
scheme. Such school under such
circumstances would be a great bless
ing to both school districts in many
ways, and the building, located as it
necessarily should be, on or about the
line diving the two districts, would be
an architectural adornment to both
Fairhaven and New Whatcom. A
high school is very much needed.

1t is not astonishing that the Seattle
Press-Times cannot understand how
the Fairhaven HERALD can be
friendly to both Governor Ferry and
Lieutenant-Goy Laughton. Vim
dictive, selfish, self-conceited and SUI
percilliOus concerns are generally stu
ated that way. The reason we are
friendly to both of the gentlemen is
because we admire both of them and
have no quarrel with either of them.
Besides the HERALD is not interested
in any scheme to down any one man tt
help up another; never was and never
will be. The Press-Times, nor any
other person or thing, have ever seen il
the Fairhaven HERALD an allusioI
to Governor Ferry that was no
cOuched in respectful terms. This be
cause he is a gentleman who merit
respect, and yet the HERALD woul'
not hesitate to fight any man on eartl
whom it believed to be wrong.

Scene at Police Headquarters Yes
terday Morning.


To the Editor of the GLOBE
Most people celebrated Christmas day
by gathering round the festive board in
the afternoon or as the shades OF night
were falling. Not so, however, the
police officers on night duty at .'Cen-
traP' and police reporters on morning
papers, who, while others were in bed
dreaming of Santa Claus and his rein
deerS, were ready at police headquarters
to turn out in the patrol wagon iii case
of a fire or any disaster.
. 1t is usual in Christmas stories to be-
gin by saying, LAS the big bell chimed
midnight and Christmas day was
ushered in" etc, but In this case the
favOrite phrase cannot be used, as my
old friend, Pat Egan, of the court house,
forgot TO wind up the big clock, and
consequently we had no chimes. But as
they say in the play, ''prithee proceed
with your story"
Well, yesterday morning before l
o'clock L was curlec up in q chair at
police headquarters. where live, and my
dear friend Lieut.. SchweitZer and Jailor
Okeefe were sitting near me. Phil,
you know, takes great care of me, and
L am proud 10 tell you all about the way
he entertained tbs boys. 1t was put
up job" as Tom Koran. the fly bob,
would say, and nothing was to be pub
lished in the papers, because Phil is SO
,baShful; but L want you to know all
about ii.
The boys who hunt up sensations for
the morning papers came in one by one,
and, after shaking the snow off their
coats, gathered round the fire and start
ed i'll TO gTumble that Christmas day
brought them no pleasure. and they
wished they were home in bed. All of
sudden the lieutenant got up
and opened the door of his
private room, and : well. l was
dazed with the sight saw. There was
a long table covered with a white table
cloth, and it was ali set for supper.
There were big cold turkeys, ducks,
roast beef, dishes of salads, preserves,
snow white bread and flagonS of hot
coffee and milk, and my dear friend
Phil had supplied it all for the boys.
Well, they did have a great time, and a
happier lot of fellows l don't suppose
could be found. Phil aud O'Keefe
waited on the reporters, the reporters
waited on them, the other officers wait
ed on the telegraph operators, and all
waited on me. l mad nice piece of
turkey and big bowl of milk, and shall
always remember the early hours of
Christmas day.
When supper was over one of the re-
porterS, who had on bright, red neck
tie, made a speech and wished the lieu
tenant and every one else happy new
year, and said he would write the affair
up i'll the papers. Phil asked him not
to do it. as it was not police news, but L
think it is, and so send you this letter
and nope you will publish it. [ have
the honor TO be yours respectfully.

1t was an old-fashioned Christmas
day. 1t was seemingly specially de-

Without it was stormy and disagreeable,
but within it was coy and CHEEKY. The
temperature was fortunately high, but
the driving snow soon forced the pedeS
trian to seek shelter. Yes, it was of the
old fashioned sOrt-such as one reads
about in a recital of the amenities Of
the season in Puritan days. In brave
colonial times. when neighbors were
like the angels, few and far between.
it was then that the hardy pioneers made
the day typical. 1t was veritable eX-

men,
We read of the rigors of the weather
with an involuntary shiver. Those de-
vout Christians who hallOwed the day in
King Georges reign experienced hard
ships perhaps never to be dupli-
Gated. but they knew how to
ENJOY Christmas and to appreciate
the glad tidlngS in the fullest. And in
conspicuous contrast stands the modern
celebration of the anniversary of Christ.

token of love if not for intrinsic value.
The stores of the city had remained
open until late hour the night before,

livered yesterday, and there were few
homes that were not the happier for the
