OF protection to the animals, yet 1t should not
be that kind of protection which drives our own
vessels into foreign ports to fit out for their
cruise, and to which they bring back their
catch, simply because they get more privileges
under the British than they do under the Amer
lean flag. This season forty-one sealing vessels
went out from Victoria, while not more than
half dozen went out from our American ports
The purchase of supplies for those vessels, the
paying off OF the crews and disposal OF the skins
when they come in means business of about
sl,10O0o0 given to foreign port, when il uatur-
ally belongs here. Better give the seals no pro-
lection than such protection as that. Another
evil OF this protection business is the fact that
1t encourages the violation of law. inst think
OF the temptation for sealers to violate those
regulations when they know every
skin taken means so to s22 for them.
1t is on the same theory that the
high duty on opium encourages smuggling,

about that for every pound of opium brought in
here under duty, ton is smuggled in The two
are almost parallel cases. Both result in the
maintenance of horde of public officials en-
gagged in futile attempt to enforce the law.

FAR TOO MANY COOKS

TRIAL BY THE LABOR UNION.
Complaint Against Members OF the
Cooks and Walters Union-Charged
With Misappropriation.

the hIte Cooks ana Walters Union and dele
gates 10 the western Central Labor Union are
on trlal before a committee of the Central union
on charges OF Misrepresentation Of money taken

Charged with characterization
The members of the Labor day COMMITTEES and
the officers aud delegates of the Western Central
refuse to make any detailed statement regarding
the matter, though il has become subject of
general conversation among all the union men
IN the city A statement of the charges they
make Is that before the picnic several
members of the different unions volunteered
to attend to the lunch counter and various
booths without compensation and supgestad
that their wives would also be willing to lend a
hand. To this the cooks and walters objected.
They refused to allow any of their members 10
do the cooking, and threatened to boycot, the
picnic unless union men were hired to do all
this work. To avoid the trouble it was finally
agreed to pay each man whose services were
necessary in the booths $3.50 for the dsy
and Huney and Pendergast, who were in
charge, were allowed IS each. This settled the
matter for the time being, but when the picnic
came the lunch that Caterer Huney gave was
wholly unsatsfactory-in fact they claim that
man would need to have been without food
for at least twenty-four hours to enable him to

the whole supply consumed be-
fore half the people who wanted lunch
were supplied. Most of the people expected that
at least fair lunch would be served on the
grounds at reasonable prices, the cooks aud
walters had published there would be- and they
therefore went unprepared. Those who failed
TO get any lunch gave the other booths, at which
Ice cream and cookies were being served, good
patronage, and ice cream and cake was
in great demand at Is cents. There
were thirtytwo gallons of ice cream

OF members of the committee, which, at the
rates charged, they say should have yielded a
profit of "a per gallon; yet the money turned in
by Huney and Pendergast from all the booths
did not begin to cover the expenses OF running
them.
President Armstrong, of the Western Central,
who was grand marshal OF the day. says that he
saw how things were going at the picnic and
wanted to relieve Huney and Pendergast of the
responsibility of handling the cash, but the
former threatened to call out all his men unless
allowed TO run things as he desired.
For the purpose of discussing the affair the

and slaughter the seals as they pleased. lie ex-
presses satisfaction at the know ledge that the
sealing vessels of both countries are treated

CHARGED WITH FRAUD.
Taking Up q Bogus Collection to Buy
FIoMers for q HospitaI.

George Benson, recently the doorkeeper Mt
Providence hospital, languisbes in the city Jail,
and II the current stories about his transactions
are sustained in court. he will without doubt
spend term in the penitentiary. On the police
court docket Benson's name is down as George
Benz, and the charge put opposite the name
by Officer T. B. Jackson Is suspicion Benson
was arrested at the instgation of Edward l.
Terry, paying teller of the Puget Sound National
bank. Just what Mr.. Terry will prosecute Ben
son for depends upon what Jacob Furth thinks
of the matter when he returns from Victoria
this evening.
few DAYS ago Benson went to the bank and
represented to Mr.. Terry that he was taking up a
popular subscription of SITS to buy choice
plants for Providence hospital. Mr.. Terry gave
him IS for the purpose. Benson, it appears,
went out and found Mr.. Edward II. Piummer,
from whom he secured a check for $40 Tor the
same purpose. This check he took to Mr.
Terry, who cashed it, For some reason Mr.
Terry became suspicious that Benson was not
all right. ana telephoned to Providence and
found that Benson had been discharged from
the service OF the hospital over a month ago, in
disgrace, and that he was not authorized to col
lect money or do any business for the hospital.
There is no telling at present how much
Benson's collections viii amount TO but it is
thought that he has secured much more money
than has yet been heard of. Mr.. NJ. K. Galloway,
manager OF the Duwamish Dairy Company, gave
Benson - several days ago toward buying the
plants and he thinks that Benson was having
very good success at getting money.
Benson was discharged from his position at
the hospital on August for drunkenness and
dlsorderly conduct. He had been there seven
or eight months, first as patient, with an in
jured ankle, and then as day doorkeeper During
the latter part of his incumbency he got to
drinking heavily and was discharged several
times and taken back on his solemn promise to
reform. Since his final discharge he has been

Mr.. Patrick Farraher, county jailer, was a pa
tient at Providence hospital few weeks ago.
and he became acquainted with Benson then
On Wednesday he met Benson on the street and
asked him what he was doing. Benson repiicd
that he was collecting and running errands for
the hospital.
Benson is an old offender against the peace of
the community. On April Is, $780, he was sent
up for thirty -one days for petit larceny, having
stolen rubber coat and some other small arti-
cIes OF clothing. He is said to have a most vivid

ORGANIZING WEATHER BUREAU.

OLYMPIA, Wash, Sept. I, 1891.
10 THE EDIToR-A state weather service, CO.
operating with the National weather bureau of
the department OF agriculture, has been estab-
nshed at Olympia, that by dissemination of the
forecasts and warnings OF the weather bureau
the people at large may derive the benefits to be
obtained therefrom
The service wishes to establish stations of OBJ
servation IN each county of the state, IN some
counties more, under the supervision OF reliable
observers, who will report to this Office. and
whose reports viii be published and dissent
mated monthly. Stations are already in opera
ton at the following points: TatoOsh island,
Neah bay, Lapush, Aberdeen, Fort Candy, East
Sound, Doe bay Por: Angeles, Seattle. Madrone,
Fort townsend, Vashon, Tacoma, Olympia,
Chehalis, vancouver, North Yakima, Fort
Simcoe, Chelan, Fort Spokane, Spokane Falls,
Dayton and Walla Walla

Fations are set OF self-registering maximum
and minimum thermometers rain gauge
measuring stick aud instrument shelter o. lat

struments, except the lattice work shelter. will
be furnished to reliable parties in places not less
than so miles from other stations of observation.
The work of observation is voluntary bat there
Is no expense attached, forms for monthly re-
ports being furnished, and franked enyelopes
for mailing reports When it is desired to es-
tablish stations at less than fifty miles apart,
instruments will required to be purchased from
private funds or from appropriations by town
or city councils. The expense, asout $50,
for the entire set, is trifiing
in comparison with the advan-
tages to be obtained. The time devoted to
making observations need not exceed ten min
utes each evening, and the work being light and
entertaining and of considerable benefit 10 ply
sicians and others, an intelligent observer can
readily be secured.
1t is requested that persons desiring TO obtain
the appointment of observer file applications at
the earliest practicable date.
Perhaps the most widely interesting and prac-
teal feature of the weather service work is the
weekly weather and crop bulletin, issued during
the growing season. A special report on the
crop of 1891 will soon be issued from this Office.
All communications relating TO the securing
OF instruments or the making of observations
should be addressed to Director Weather Service,
