AT the northwest corner of Fourth and
Adams Streets Olympia, being No. 502 and
504 Fourth streets, is located the office Of
the State Printing and Publishing com
pany. Very few people have anything like
a correct idea of the magnitude of the

short notice. "a visit to the establishment

who are unaware of the many I'M

facilities since her admission as a state.
The State Printing and Publishing com

HITS AND ERRORS.
The Senators Lose a Game to the
San FranciScOs.

AT the Haight-street Grounds yesterday
afternoon the weather was too cold to enjoy
even a first-cass game of ball, but the dis
comfort Of the spectators was heightened
bY very poorly played contest. There
was certainly plenty of batting in the game,
but the errors-notably those made by the
Yisitors-sapped most Of the interest before
the sixth inning had been reached. Pitcher
France lost his knack of placing the ball
over the center of the plate aud sent eleven
men to first base. He was batted very
freely in the early innings, during which
the Friscos managed to secure a SUI
fieent number of runs to Overhaul
ance the total score of the Senators.
Wards work about second base was
miserable, his blunders occurring on the
easiest sort of plays. Peoples. Sunday and
Work sized up Cobb's curves for double
shots in addition to singles, and the long
drive of the right fielder was made when
the corners were filed. There were sew
eral exhibitions of stupid base-running by
the members of the Capital City Club. Me
ClOskey made fancy catch of a short fly
after taking a long sprint, and Spies cleverly
gathered in foul that almost scraped the
wire netting OF the grand stand.
In the fourth inning Cobb's delivery be-
gan to grow familiar to the opposing bats
men, and base-hits became numerous, nine
being made in four innings. Sharp PLAYED
great bali in his position and at bat. He
accepted eleven chances without an error.
and hit out Two singles and n double The

They Oppose a Scheme to Destroy Their
Shipping Office.
The b0arding-house keepers, who have
suffered severely in pocket since the Coast
Seamen's Union began to find berths for its
members,s have hit upon plan by which
they hope to thwart the organization. A
ship came into port few days ago manned
by crew that had been engaged before the
union shipping Office was opened. The men
were discharged, and the captain now seeks
to re-employ them i'll defiance of the rule of
the shipping office that the first names on
its list of idle seamen shall be the first EN-
plOyed.
The officers of the union saw at once that
if this were permitted the clearinghouse
master would be enabled to go into the
blOOd-money business again, for the cap
tainS who have profted with them and who
shipped crews before the new departure
would insist upon re-employing their men.
and would give the men TO understand that
they would not prosper II they did not pat
roDiZe the clearinghouse IN which the
masters were interested The union DIS
cussed the matter at special meeting last
night, and decided that 1t would permit no
departures from its established rule.
The Coast Seamen are determined that
the owners of the British steamer that Is
running between this ami British Colum-
bia ports and left on Tuesday morning with
q nOn-union crew shall not be permitted TO
injure the business Of Coast shippers by re-
duciDg rates aud wages. They Will induce
the non-uuion men to leave her when she
comes back and they will establish branch

Wages.


They Have Struck for Standard Rate of
Wages.
Speaking of their strike, Secretary William
O. Southwick of the jourueymen fathers is
deslrous also of correcting some misstate-
ments which have been published. BE said ::
First, as regards wages. Ever since the
society went to pieces in the fall there has
been no regular standard of wages. Men
have been working for what they could get,
and the majority for 81 per day or less. The
very best men have been unable to get more
than 81 30 a dry.
1.-The journeymen fathers. as whole,
are in the winter months unable to make
more than half time, and you may judge
from these facts that there is not bonanza
in the business. 1t is for these reasons that
we have asked for an advance to So 80 per
day for first-class fathers and IS per day
for second class, with eight hours day.
Furthermore, none of the journeymeu
union fathers have gone TO work at the old
rates, nor do they intend doing so. The few
Iathers who may be working to-day are
known by the union as 'scabs.' The strike
is still on"

Only Employers of Non-Union Men OPP
pose the Eight-HOur Day.
The Stock Report was unsparingly de-
nounced at last nights meeting of the Paint
ers' aud Decorators Union ON account Of
its recent utterances concerning the paint
ers' movement to estabisha an eight-hour day
on May LIST. The paper referred to stated
that the employing painters failed to attend
n conference called by the journeymen to
discuss the proposed reduction of the hours
of toll.
''The fact is" said the Press Committee
of the union last night, I'VE have had sew
eraI conferences with the bosses, and as a
result Of these meetings we are confident
that our eight-hour movement will not be
opposed. except by few men who employ
n0n-union men and oppose every movement
to improve the condition of workingmen."
K. Willis, an employing painter, informed
a representative of The CALL that he was
one of those who believe in eight hours for
work, eight hours for sleep and eight hours
for recreation.
The unions employment office has justi-
fed the prediction of its projectors. 1t is
hardly able to supply the demands made
upon 1t for competent vorknen.

be made he believed that Mr.. lie Counts re-

When the question of eurtailment was
