A FAIR SHOWING FOR SEATTLE.

According to the statement of the sec
rotary OF the treasury, out of nine Gus
toms districts In the United States at
which silver-Iead ores were received. Sc
attic stood second on the list, Paso del
Norts being first, with H.35.o12 pounds.
while Seattle received 3.s47.oi7 pounds.
This fact was ascertained when The gov
ernment called for bids for the sampling
and assaying of silver-lead ores imported
under the new law passed at the last ses-
sion of congress. This is an important
and growing business. but it has appar-
emily failed TO attract the attention that
its Importance deserves. These foreign
ores have apparently drifted into this port
of their own accord and eventually found
lodgment at the neighboring smelters and
reduction works. II would naturally c.
cur to the observant mind that place so
favorab.y situated as Seattle for obtain
ing foreign and domestic ores would be
the natural point for the establishment Of
extensive sampiing and reducing plants.

work. and by Monday the machinery viii

feats in engineering ever attempted on
the Pacific coast.
1t means much for Seattle. 1t adds
one moro TO the many great efforts to
build up the city. Old settlers will be re-
minded of the days when they turned
out In a body TO help build the first rail-
road. They had waited for outside help
until their patience was exhausted. and
self-reiiance asserted itself. The great
work now TO be undertaken will owe
most OF it's success TO the enterprise OF
outside capital. but the task of preparing
the way was accomplished entirely by
Seattle men.
So great an undertaking cannot be
rushed through In a hurry. 1t takes time
