STATE BOARD OF TRADE.
The Work Done and the Work Planned
Help Needed.


Secretary W. F. Rupert OF the State Board of
Trade is sending the following circular to the
various boards of trade and chambers of COM
merce OF the state:
The members OF our executive committee
feel that insufficient interest is being taken In
the work of the State Beard OF Trade, which is
immigration. We have published number of
little pamphlets, copies OF which have ben
sent you, and the newspapers of the state have
done much TO encourage us. We are dependent
entirely upon voluntary contribution for an
income and We are not i'll receipt OF money
enough to allow us 10 do good work. Many
boards OF trade throughout the state have never
taken membership with us, ami in order TO
inform them as well as our members OF what is
being done l take pleasure in giving mere
outline OF the work, hoping it will result III
new memberships and encourage those who are
helping us to take more lively interest.
During the few months of the existence of
this board the financial condition OF the whole
country has been such that material develop
ment III a new community like this has been
very slow. Individuals and associations that
have been working for the upbuilding OF the
state have been fighting against great odds
Tangible results from the most conscientious
work are few. but we are confident that all
work in this direction will have it's reward as
soon as there is that general improvement which
may be expected from the inflow OF gold for the
purchase OF abundant crops. so Tar as our own
board 10 concerned, we think our efforts have
expected IN n season OF depression. We are eX-
pected to give impartial attention TO all parts Of
the state. AS our advertisement is now about
to appear in 1900 different papers We hope Tor
larger returns from now on.
On the 10th OF September we had distributed

Extending to South Westminster.

The New Westminster Columbian says: "After
all that has been said OF late about the extern

Westminster, il will not be surprising TO learn
that Mr. q. z. Jones, engineer in charge, is call
Ing for tenders for the necessary grading from
the end OF the track near Brownsville TO South
Westminster, distance of about 5000 feet. Ten
ders must be in by Friday evening, 18th inst. at

An Illinois Educator Gives Them Very
High Praise.

Professor Edwin C. Hewett, of Normal, ILL.,, is
stopping at the Grand hotel He is one of the
best known educators in his state, having been
for thirty-two years connected with the normal
school at Normal-for fifteen years as
principal Professor Hewett has been
attending the Teachers Institute at
Spokane giving instruction in methods and
psychology. 81 have seen a number of the
schools of the state" said he yesterday, land
they are as good as you will find anywhere.
In Spokane, in Walla Walla, and here the
schools are among the best buildings in the
cities The truth is that the people here
are New Englanders, or from Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois or Iowa, removed
one generation from New England
The settlars of Washington have the New
England idea that the first requisite is good
schools and with Western liberality the citi-
zens have made the schools the feature of the
towns ana cities, sparing no expense"
Today Professor Hewett will visit some of the
schools OF Seattle.

Good Chance for Brook Street Grading.

Work on grading Fourth street from Lake to
Wall street and Fifth street from Lake to Du-
vanish street will soon begin, the contracts
having been let and approved. City Engineer
Aibro Gardner says that there will be a great
surplus OF dirt from the work on these con-
tracts and that now would be very good time
for the people who own property on Brook
street between Depot street and Lake Union to
have that vicinity graded. He says it is their
golden opportunity, for the surplus earth could
be utilized at small cost to fill in the Brook
street creek, which will have to be done sooner
later

London's most engrossing topic dis.
cussed in society at present is the
exhibition of the Rational Dress Society.
Lady Sandhurst. Lady Harberton. Mrs. Os-
car Wilde, and other ladies are undertaking
to introduce new dress combinations, the
nationality" of which consists of brevity
Of skirt, quality of underdress, and short
ness of upper drapery. But the costume
most approved by the adherents of the society
consists Of Syrian trousers and full blouse
of silk over velvet zouave bodice Ladies
are said to crowd the exhibition hall to look
at and admire the new combination. Still
no member Of the society has yet ventured
to walk out in rational" costume for public
criticism. Iuventing things for other peos
pie to look absurd in aud wearing such gar
ments themselves are two entirely different
things these very progressive ladies seemIt
think,
