mineral and timber districts. In agrlcul-
ture the state Is the richest In the Union.
IL could furnish train OF cars loaded
with wheat, allowing $50 bushels To each
car, that would reach from the Pacific TO
the Atlantic, and all this would be only
one years production The state produces
five more bushels per acre than any other
state, It's production being 23i6 bushels,
Ohio coming next with eighteen and New
YORK following with twelve bushels, while
the Dakotas, generally supposed TO be tho
great wheat-producing states, come with
l0lS bushels. In single year Washing
ton could produce lfOOO,OO0 bushels OF
wheat, the largest export OF wheat the
United States ever made.
"The mineral resources stored In the
Cascade mountains would buy many

proclaimed In 1913 that all the territory

ton II Is estimated are 10000, 100000 feet
OF timber, enough To make fence twelve
feet wide and thirty feet high around the
globe. IL has been demonstrated that
Washington fir Is capable Of withstandlng
greater strain than oak. The Pullman
car works and other great concerns are
now largely buying timber In Washing
ton.
"Fruts Of all kinds grow abundantly,
and straw wberries, nine Of which will ill a

quarts Of berries may be picked from a

what the gulf stream does for England

bituminOus.

advancement. In the state are 10000
children OF school age, and at Spokane
has been erected high school building
costing $1,000. In this state, a little
while ago, were only eleven log school
houses, and the percentage OF brick build

than the percentage OF frame ediiices. In

Double Execution at Nanaimo

NANAIMO. B. c., Jan. 18-A double
execution took place here this morn
ing, the criminals being Chinaman
named Sing Kee, and an Italian named
Deminico Taraguello. The execution,
which took plac in the Jail yard, was
almost a private one, only the officials,
press representatives and the jury being
present. Sing Kee passed fairly good
night, sleeping at intervals, but was
very restless. He was very pious, and
listened attentively to the minister. A
priest was with Taraguello all night.
He slept at intervals, but was very rest
less and anxious. Neither partook OF
breakfast. At o'clock sharp loud
moaning announced to the spectators
that the procession had left the cell
and then they appeared, headed by the
sheriff. The Chinaman walked firmly
and stood under the gallows quietly.
Taraguello had to be dragged along by
two officers. He refused TO stand at
first. He moaned all the time, crying
out in Italian, al am not the man.
Good bye, / wish l was In hell instead
of jail" The executioner soon pinioned
them, adjusted the moose and covering
around their heads. Taraguello was
supported by an officer. Suddenly the
drop loosened and both shot beneath.
The Italian died almost Immediately,
but the Chinaman swayed about for
over two minutes, and tried to loosen
his hands and legs. He uttered groan
then all was still. The bodies kept
hanging several minutes, then were
cut down.

A senaation Spoiled

A box Of human bones discovered
by Officer Durgan on the North side Of
the de Mattos block caused ripple Of
excitement on the streets Of New
Whatcom yesterday afternoon. For a

enough about the snap to give IL away.

ton was found on the beach, and the
enterprising discoverer took them 10
DIR. McPheBon, whose Office was then
In the de Mattos block. The doctor,
however, made no use Of the bones
and they were placed In q
box and stored In the hall
The janitor, after sweeping around the
box for a year and half, finally con.
cluded TO move IL out Of bis way, and
carried IL out Of doors, where II re
mained until Officer Durgan made the
discovery yesterday. AS the box was
being put into the express wagon by
the coroner yesterday Judge de Mattot
saw and recognized II, but he winked
the other eye and said nothing.

THE MAYORS coNaREaATINa
A Bill Abolishing the Office of Lieuten-
ant Governor-Laughton's Vetoed
Bills Called Up

Laughton's veto of the coal mining and
Pinkerton law bills of last session were
read in the senate after the opening
routine, with a view To passing the
bills Notwithstanding the veto. After
some discussion Senator Rutter, OF
King, moved that the matter be made
special order for next Friday at 10
o'clock, when joint rules will be per-
fected. Motion agreed to.
Hutchinson, of Lincoln, today intro
duced bill i'm the senate to abolish the
Office of Acknowledgements. The bill
is substantially the same as the one in-
troduced in the senate three years ago
by Rinehart, of King. The compost
ton of the senate committees as formed
by Laugton made it clear to the mind
of Rinehart that the appointing power
was dangerous in the hands of man
like Laughton. The measure of today
contains an emergency clause.
Mayors and ex-mayors of cities of the
first, second and third classes are con-
gregating at Olympia today for the
called meeting TO be held tomorrow.
Probably the most important matter
on which the legislature will be re-

charter" to be substituted for the free
holders charter, under which all cities
of the first class are now operating.
