The fur trade, the most important industry q
Alaska, may be divided into two branches
namely, the trade in land furs and the pursuit.
OF marine mammals, such - fur seals and -
offers Tho trade In land furs, though dec1ina
has been noticed in the supply Of certain go
tons, cannot be said to have decreased In vol
umc. There II no doubt that iur-beasing anis
mails are hunted and trapped with greate1
persistency and energy than ever before, ana, q
natural consequence, there must in the future
be greater decline in numbers. The land furs
exported at present from Alaska consist ofstho
skins Of bears, both black and brown; foxee
of three or four different species, includ-
ing most valuable among them, the sill
yer or black fox, aud another kind
known a. the blue fox; the land otter,
which inhabits all the rivers and streams: The
marten or Alaska sable: the beaver; the mink,
and the muskrat, to which must be added few
pelts OF the lynx, wolf and wolverine. The
pelagic furs consist of two kinda, the go otter
and fur seal. OF these fur bearing animals the
fur seal is by far the most important, constitut.
ing, so far as explored and known, fully ono.
half of AIaska's natural wealth and resources.
The value Of fur-seal skins shipped from the
territory and sold in London markets during the
twenty three years Of American occupancy foota
up nearly $3S 100000, while the total value Of all
other products combined during the same
period does not quite reach $50 00J, 900. Of which
more than half SIC, 900, represents fuyG
of various kinds, chief among which 10 that Of
the sea otter.

To THE EDITOR: As there appears TO he some
controversy in the city of Seattle respecting thu
"Association Dairy" some parties insisting that
the same Is put on by the White River MIX Pro-
ducers' Association" and some Insisting tina; il
Is not. Twill briefly tfor the satisfaction OF all
partiesl state the facts OF the ease:
There is a .sWhitc River Mix Producers Asso-
ciation." the members OF which are the farmers
on White river They formed themselves into
an association simply 10 obtain uniform price
for their milk. and up TO the present time have
been successful About month ego some of
the seattle dealers notified several OF our raem-
bers to stop shipping milk, amongst them being
George Hummii, of Slaughter. These notices
were read and considered at q meeting OF the
association, and IL wss resolved not TO supply
any milk TO the party referred 10. This stopped
the supply OF Hummii, and he therefore de-
cided to commence milk routs of his own and

Dr.. J. Eugene Jordan, Seattle, Wash
Dear Doctor: have been and hope win
be the means of convincing many people
Of the superiority of your wonderful sys-
tenn, and through my influence they have
been persuaded to come to you and make
use Of your medicines, the efficacy Of
which have testified to in the past, and
think it would be well to publish my tes-
timony again, for there are so many peo-
pie coming here who are diseased, and
your medicines are so much needed, that
feel it my duty to do all can in the way
of advertising it.
II you remember my case, l was troubled
for many years with neuralgia in its Sc
verest form, suffering untold agony. I
tried doctors of every sort, all to no pur-
pose, until commenced the use of your
medicines, and after continuing them for .
time was entirely cured.
am 30 glad that the people here are
awakening to the fact that this new sci
ence is the way to health, and that these
old drugs which kill more than they cure
will be put under the ground or buried in
oblivion. Yours very truly,
MRs. MARY PARISH,
Formerly Mrs. Mary Hindman.

Demand In New York.

PuYALLur. March a6-JSpecial l-"Any rise
IN hops YETI" is the first inquiry by the holders
OF hops when they meet buyer on the streets
OF Puyallap nowadays. but there Is little salts
faction for the unlucky holder to be had from
any OF Puyallup's many buyers, the almost in
evitable answer being, "Not in the market"
But things cannot remain long as they are. for
the price Of hops, unlike that of almost every
other commodity, never remains stationary, and
1t can't surely so much lower than 1t 10 at pres
ent The outlook for Washington is not any
more favorable than 1t Yves last year, so that by
the time the new crop il being harvested there
Is sure to be . scarcity of hops.
NEW YORK MARKET
There il a slightly increased demand on this
market, but there has been no rise In prices, the
amount OF trade done seemed only to steady
prices. Holders of Pacific stocks being anxious
to sell. makes buyers hold off entirely or they
reduce their bids below asking rates, thus pre-
venting any business. 1t would take very
choice growth OF either Oregon or Washington
to bring SOC, indeed there are prime lots offering
