The whole state has occasion TO feel
gratified over the raising of the canal
subsidy of $4,000 by the enterprising and
seIf-reliant citizens of Seattle. The sub
sidy has been accepted, which means
that the work of developing that city's
matchless commercial facilities will soon
begin, and that five or six million dollars
will be expended in a single enterprise
during the next half dozen years. Seat
tie has an unfailing resource in the en-
ergy and indomitable public spirit of her
people, and as long as these abide with
her her commercial supremacy Is assured.
