week, having been secured by the
steamship influence, as Republicans
are alleging, 1t was made in direct OPP
position to that influence. The con-
test for the position has been quite
spirited, there having been a number
of candidates all strongly backed. In
order to ascertain the sentiments Of
the steamship men towards each of
the applicants Secretary Carlisle had
trusty personal friend call on them
for the purpose of discussing the fit
ness Of the several candidates, and as
soon as his report was made the name
of every man the steamship men had
expressed themselves as being favora-

and as they have been in the habit of

some kicking among the chiefs, but as
most OF them are Republicans it is
done very quietly. Secretary Smith

State Finances.

The close f the fiscal Year brings 70 I.
! a:h; ar interesting tact IN conncc-
f.ru viii the management OF sta"
finances. Money derived from the
schools lands is set apart a. q porma- (
ncnt fund. the interest Of which is
used for school purposes. The law
governing the case specifies that the
money Of the permanent fund shall he
inV, ~:cd in county. stat. or govern
mcnt bonds. Owing TO the low rate t..
interest paid on State and governmen'
bonds county bonds are the only kind
in which thi, money can Toe invested
protitahly. But it seems that, owing
to peculiar complication, county
bonds cannot be purchased without
paying a premium to the bond brokers
that considerably reduces the interest
/ that would accrue to the State.
Agents Of the brokers buy up the
! county bonds almost as soon as they
are put on the market. The State is
then compelled to buy them from the
broker. Owing to the pressure put on
by the brokers' who now hold county
bonds, the State has 100000 in cold
cash, belonging to the permanent
school fund, which is not earning a
single cent in the way of interest, ex-
cept for the bank in which it is depos-
tied. The most that can be earned by
this money in bond investment is 4 +
or 5 per cent. A large number of the
counties OF the State have bonds out,
but they are in the possession of bro.
kers who have the power to make their
own terms with the State.
An unsuccessful effort was made at
the last session to have the law relat-
ing to the sale of school lands 80 modi-
fled that this money would not accum.
ulate to the credit OF the permanent
fund. The plan proposed was to ex.
tend the time OF paying for school
lands thirty years at six per cent. after
the two first first payments had been
made. This would have enabled the
settler to use the money in improving
his place, and the State would have re-
ceived much larger interest on the
outstanding money than can now pos
sibly be obtained by the investments
prescribed by law. But this provision
was defeated because the committee
thought man Fought to be able to
pay for a piece of land in less than 80
years, and that by that time it would
be worn out and man could afford to
abandon it." For this reason, $780,
600 and more we're tied up in such a
way that the bond brokers and bankers
would reap the chief benefit. The
fund is accumulating all the time.

Some Surprising Statements.

Some s"r! rising figures have Just
been published anent the great lum-
her industry Of the Pacific northwest.
They illustrate how bountifully this
expansive region has been timbered.
In Washington and Oregon there are
over one thousand lumber and wood
working firms, representing COM
binel capital of nearly $50 600 900 and
employing 5000 men. The value OF
the product ~ in the ncighborhood OF
S2J,000,O00 yearly. Ten millions OF
dollars are annually brought into
these two States from foreign and
domestic points in exchange for lum-
Der, hath, shingles and other wood
products. In Washington, the cut OF
lumber for 1892 showed a large de-
crease over the preceding year by rea-
son of the fact that the building boom
beginning in 1890 began to subside
during the latter part Of 1891. The
cargo trade, however, during 1892 and
the coastwise movement considerably
increased, and the eastern demand for
rail shipments OF lumber from Wash,
ington increased fully 20 per cent
According to indications, this years
record will eclipse all others Of the
past in the commercial progress Of
the Pacific northwest. The Puget

standing timber in the State of Wash

grasp the magnitude of these figures

Imagine a solid train, $1,000 feet o.
lumber to the car, stretching $4,000
miles, or six times around the earth
and then enough cars left to make g
