LUMBER FOR JAPAN.

An Initial Cargo of Lumber to Be
Shipped as an Experiment.
eve are now trying to charter vessel
to ship our initial cargo OF lumber to
Japan" said E. NJ. Herrick, of San Fran
cisco, president of the Pacific Pine Lum-
Der company, recently. Strange to say,
this order came to us from our New York
agent. The stuff is intended for the gov
eminent shipyard at Yokohama the finan-
cial agents of the japanese government in
New York were instructed to make the
purchase. Like almost all our shipping
trade, the order calls for squared logs.
For long time our company has been
doing missionary work in all parts OF the
world on behalf of the lumber of this
region. We have sent circulars all over
the world calling attention TO the many
official and private tests of our product,
and we have sent cargoes into all the
principal ports Of the world, where those
interested may see the stuff. Aside from
the merits OF the wood being unknown,
our greatest difficulty has been to sell any
of our common lumber, and the demand
has been almost entirely for squared logs,
which we have sold at low prices in order
to introduce the stuff into the worlds
markets. The reason why timbers are
wanted instead of lumber is 80 that they
may be sawed up into special sizes, as re-
quired by custom mills at the ports where
they are SENT In making plans for build
ings, bridges and public works the en-
gineers and architects often require special
sizes OF timbers and plank. The con-
tractors 60 to the costums mills in their
vicinity to get the lumber, and these mills
find it very convenient to have our logs,
from which they can cut almost any size
of timber required. But on small stuff
We meet competition everywhere. Eu-
rope is supplied from the forests of the
Baltic, although we are gaining fair
trade in deal ends in England. This stuff
is of high merchantable character, but
we can dispose of it in as short length as
ten feet, In Australia we have the New
Zealand forests to compete with. China
gets a great deal of her lumber from
Japan, which has large forests. On the
American Atlantic coast there is the
Georgia pine, ane we have not been able
to successfully compete with these tim
Der areas in the inferior grades and sizes
of lumber. After awhile, however, when
the world comes to know the value of our
product and feels that it cannot be dis
pensed with we may be able to make
conditions of sale whereby we shall
either get better prices for our big stuff OF

An Outside View.

Hoquiam, on the north side at the
mouth of river of the same name, has
about 1900 people, who for the most
part live on the various occupations
created by two big saw mills. AT Ho-
GUAM there is large and very hand
some hotel that cost $4,000 and is ele-
gantly furnished throughout. The land
lord pays the owners ten dollars year
rent and they furnish him with fuel and
electric light gratis. Aberdeen, three
miles above Hoquiam, at the mouth of
the Chehalis river, has about 1000 in
habitants and also lives chiefly on lum-
Der. The two towns are built on the
flats, and houses standing on stills and
the streets constructed of slabs and saw
dust. A causway Of planks and piles
connect these odd, amphibious places.
They are both doing quite well now, hav-
ing fully recovered from the intoxication
of the boom epoch and being Industrious

To Advertise the Grays Harhor Country.
1t must needs be considered popular
thing for the combined editors of the
county to agree upon and arrange plan
for the proper advertising OF this section
during the Worlds Fair year. In the
first place, such action apd assurance will
most likely shut off most or all of the
"snide" advertising schemes which will
from time to time be presented for this
purpose.
In addition to the editors a committee
of business men from different sections of
the county have been asked to join them
in advancing this matter and assuring its
success. No sectionalism will be known
in this plan, but liberal inducements will
be given to procure the best possible de-
scriptive article, not less than 5000
words, for the object mentioned. Neces-
sarily this must be historically correct,
comprehensive, fair and full, giving to
each and every place its complete show
ing, and doing for the county what has
never before been attempted-a correct
and complete write-up as whole, with
out preference to any locality. In fact, it
must be satisfactory to every section Of
the county. To this end, every section
of the county is expected to contribute
toward the contamination of the plan,
thus enabling the publishers OF the county
to show to the world in proper and eff
fective manner the vast resources and
possibilities Of the Grays harbor country.
The committees and their duties are
outlined in our report of the meeting at
Westport. These committees are ex-
pected to at once proceed to work up the
necessary encouragement for this object,
and they will have prominent hand in
the management Of the affair, to assure
themselves that the object is worthy
one and that it is worthily carried out to
the complete end.
Parties competing for the prizes-first,
second and third, and soon to be an
nounced-will put their articles in type
written copy, without signature, and re-
serve a copy for proof of authorship.
The articles will be known to the COM
mittee only by numbers, that no partial
ity can be shown. They should be for
warded to the secretary, at this office, as
soon as completed, in sealed envelope,
and marked "World's Fair Contest"
For any further information, address the
secretary. o. M. Moore,

AT the meeting of the shjnglemen's as
ISOLATION in Seattle Tuesday the charge
of cutting prices was freely INDUCED in,
and numb Der of designations rendered in
consequence. An effort was made to
regulate production by an agreement to
shut down for a certain length Of time,
but this it was shown would be "nuts''
for the outsiders, who would have the
market all to themselves and would run
their mills night and day, and the sug-
gestion did not receive second.
After every other resource had failed
the specter spoke and proposed to sus-
pend the agreement on prices for thirty
days, to give the battle to the swiftest
and strongest and let the devil and the
sheriff take the slow and feeble. Reluct-
antly, but goaded by desperation, good
majority voted in favor of the proposition,
and the thing was settled.
AS to the effect of the associations ac-
ton the opinions of the members are va.
rious. Most of the small manufacturers
feel very blue, and can see no light ahead.
A majority of them are in debt, and can
not run a week at loss. Then they can.
not manufacture as cheaply as the larger
and better equipped concerns, who nat.
urally will put the price down low enough
to enable them to run at their full capac.
ity, and, if they cannot supply all the de-
mand, the little mills will get what orders
the large mills cannot fill,
Secretary Duniway says that no one
can sell shingles for $1.25 per thousand
and make any money, and before the
plice gets down to that figure perman
emily many of the little mills will have te
close down.

AUDITOR BoYINGToN has given the COM
missioners notice that he will not issue
any more warrants, and Treasurer Lewis
has notified them that he will counter
sign no more. This action has become
necessary because the former board of
commissioners jammed the county up to
within such a narrow margin of the
limit of indebtedness that the present
board soon reached that limit, and are
now confronted with the question What
shall be done? They will ask the voters
to consider the question, and recommend
what action they desire taken. 1t seems
as though the only thing to be done is to
issue bonds for the present Indebtedness.

THE decision of Judge Speers, of
Georgia, recognizing labor organizations
and requiring the receiver OF a railroad to
deal with them as such, is, in connection
with the decisions OF Judges Taft and
Kicks, step in the direction Of socialism
that no man would have been brave
enough to predict five years ago. The
latter is extreme in it's enunciation of
the duty owed by the laboring man to
the railroads and the public;. the former
is equally extreme in the opposite
direction.

Condition of County FINANCES.

For some time it has been apparent
that the limit OF indebtedness of Chehalis
county would seen be exceeded, and the
commissioners have been investigating
the matter with view Of finding out the
actual financial condition of the county
and also to provide some way out of the
present difficulty. Upon their request
County Treasurer Lewis this morning
submitted the statement below showing
the condition of the funds. 1t will be
seen that the limit Of indebtedness has
been exceeded by about $4,000. This
does not include the bills allowed at the
recent session of commissioners prodeed-
ings. The order made allowing these
bills has been rescinded and warrants
will not be issued in payment for them
until they can be issued legally
. The question now is, What is to be
donef The current expenses of the
county must be met. People doing work
for the county or furnishing supplies can.
not afford to wait a year or more for their
pay. Just what course the commission.
ers will pursue is not known. 1t would
seem that but one course is left open for
them and that is to bond the county to
pay. off outstanding warrants. 1t is a
condition of things which will not be
relished by the people Of the county, but
it must be met, and we doubt not that
the commissioners will deal with the pro-
position as business judgment would
dictate.
