Walter A. Wood Harvester Company
at Chicago, ILL.,, one f the largest
concerns in the country engaged in
the manufacture of harvesting machi-

Free-Traders have evidence presented
to them almost daily that competi-

limit margins of profit to very mar

thus minimizing the misfortunes to
which they are liable, that Protec-

Another Log Raft.

SAN FRANCISCO. April 5.-W. E.
Baines, who was interested in the great
raft that went to pieces in a storm on
the Pacific few months ago, while be-
ing towed here, is in the city. He
says that in company with HI. r.
Robertson he is now constructing
another raft, which he hopes to get
safely to San Francisco.
1t is being built at Stella, Wn., forty
miles up the Columbia river from it's
mouth, and will contain 400, 1000 lineal
feet, the equivalent in board measure
of 100000 feet.
The raft Will be cigar-shaped, will be
525 feet long, fifty-two feet wide, thirty
feet in depth, and will draw between
twenty and twentyone feet of water.
Its logs, if placed end to end weuld
reach distance of seventy-six miles.
The weight will be 10000 tons. The
girth at the mid-ship section is 139
feet, and at the end of the tapered
section forty-fve feet.
The raft is so we'll on towards COM
pletion that it will be ready for sea by
June Is. At that season the weather
is always fair, and the prevailing winds.
which are light from the northwest,
favorable.

The New Railroad.

Every little while the papers have
something to say about the prospec-
tive railroad to Port Orchard, opposite
Seattle. Preliminary surveys have
been made and it is stated that the
near future will see line OF railway
constructed from the new navy ward
site to Summit, on the Gray's Harbor
branch of the Northern Pacific, a dis
lance OF about forty-five miles,.
Almost an air line can be made, the
route following high ground from
Anderson's, at the head of the bav.
and passing the summit level between
Hood Canal and Cases inlet near
Allyn, on past Mason lake, touching
at or near Shelton and tapping the
Gray's Harbor at Summit. Thus AN
outlet is found through to Portland
and the south and also to Gray's Har-
Dor. The route is, for the greater
part OF the way, nearly level, and the
average grade will not be over 2 per
cent.

News of all Sorts.

CAPTAIN SYMoNs has investigated
the canal scheme, to connect Hoods
Canal and North Bay, and decides that
it IS not feasible. Even if it were,
there is no object in spending money
on such wild cat scheme, for many
years to come, at any rate.
THE influenza has been very deadly
in Europe this year. Throughout the
central and northern countries its
ravages are reported unusually
severe. It has been no respecter OF
persons, high or low suffering alike.
The cause of the origin and dissemina-
ton of the dread disease is unknown,
the SCIENTISTS advancing no theory con-
corning them, all the doctors of Europe
seeming to be puzzled by the onward
march of the destroyer. France.
Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Russia
and other countries have been success
i've scenes of the deadly visitation, and
its march was marked by the closing
OF schools and courts, the invading of
garrisons and the interruption of the
activities of life. In England the
deaths from influenza have been verv
numerous. In one week, in London.
there were 296; in the next week, 473 !;
in three weeks the deaths were 100
more than during al of the year of
1894. The influenza, or grip, as we
call it here, has been very troublesome
in this country but its severity is in
no wise to be compared to its dreadful
scourging III Europe-P.
sANoTHER cut in wages in the log
glng camps near Kamichie was made
last week from ten to twenty cents per
day. This gold basis that the English
shylocks have fastened on this country
still continues to .depreciate the price
OF labor and its products while the
purchasing power of the interest
money increases"
The above is from the OLYMPIA
Capital, one or our populist friends
who claimed the tariff cut no figure.
and there was practically no differ
ence between the republicans and
democrats on that score. Perhaps the
money question is leader, but he
Capital will doubtless find that other
kinds of dangerous shylocks need
some attention, if we would protect
our interests nearer at home. We
trust the Capital will soon focus its
populist ammunition on the seven
ships loading at one British Column
bian sawmill for southern California
markets; the seven ships not loading
at Puget Sound mills, and the British
coal now retailed to the Sound-These
are trivial things, too small for popu-
list attention, but the loggers whose
wages are affected, or who are with
out work, can very readily see what
hit Mr.. Patterson.

The Tariff on Lumber.

The manufacture of lumber in Penn.
sylvania is said to be languishing be.
cause OF the immense importations OF
Canadian lumber, which have followed
the enactment of the Wilson tariff
There was no excuse for placing lum-
Der on the free list. 1t was accom-
pllshed by despicable bargain be
tween the democrats and populists in
the senate. Under the Mckinley law
logs were admitted free of duty. and
that provision served to protect our
forests, SO that the only effect of free
lumber is to transfer the manufacture
ing interests to Canada. Lumber is no
cheaper in the treeless states. while
American laborers have lost the on
portunity to manufacture Canadian
logs. It has injured American lumber
man, especially in the eastern states
and benefited scarcely any American
interest except the capital invested the
other side Of the line.-Ledeer.
