Our Platform.

We your committee on platform and resOlu-
tions, hereby report the following resolutions as
an expression of the sentiments of this Conven-
ton:
We cordially approve and endorse the plat
form adopted and the candidates nominated at
the National Republican Convention and
promise them our loyal support. We are I'M
swervingly in favor of true bimetallism. We
are unalterably opposed to the fusion fiat policy
which if carried out can only result in silver
recommendation and reduce this county to a
lower grade of civilization
In this hour of distress and perplexity, we
recognize the necessity of restoring to power
party with practical, united and well settled
policy, which has in the past given us prosperity
honor and dignity at home and abroad, and
promises return to the same conditions, and
We regard with apprehension the possible sue
cess of a combination of parties OF various di-
verse, discordant untried and impractical ex-
pedients
We declare that the leading issues of this
campaign are tariff policy that will protect and
promote American industry and enterprise.
Reciprocity that will encourage trade and com
merce on sea and land. Public Improvements
of rivers and harbors and especially the con.
struction of the Nicaragua Canal Practical
craftsmanship and firm and dignifed foreign
policy. And declare that the attempt to invest
the free silver idea with undue prominence is
an expedient of demagogues to divert the minds
of the people from the real issues that confront
the nation.
We hold Democrats and Populists responsible
for the disasters they brought upon the country
mainly by the repeal of the Mckinley law OF
protection and reciprocity, and the passage Of
the lily adjusted Wilson German act.
Never in the history of the county has the
management of affairs been more satisfactory or
economically administered than for the last
years and we commend our officials to the favor
able notice of the public, and pledge our nom
inees if elected to perform the duties of their
office for the salaries allowed by law.

Prof. NanSen's Fran.

It is not generally known that Prof.
Nansen's Arctic ship Fran, which
for three years braved the terrors of the
frozen north and finally returned with
all on board safe and sound, is the
product of Puget sound timber
About four years ago, when Nansen
was casting about for the strongest
and most durable wood for the construc
ton of his steamer, he decided that
Puget sound Douglas fir was the wood
he desired and the order for the timber
out of which the ship was to be built,
was placed with the Puget Sound
Lumber Company of Port Gamble
The lumber, sawed into the desired
lengths and sizes, was sent to Norway
with other cargoes and the Fran was
constructed.
It remained for Victor H. Beckman,
editor Of the Pacific Lumber Trade
Journal of Seattle, who always is al
i've to the need and presently of lumber
men of this Sound, to discover that
Fran was built of fir and this months
number of his publication, which is
now in press, contains an interesting
account of fir tests in general and in
particular the great test given the
timber by The Fran. Mr.. Beckman
considers the best testimonial as to
the strength of fir comes from Prof.
Nansen himself. The Pacific Lumber
Trade Journal, which will be issued
Monday, will say:
But the best testimonial as to the
strength of the fir comes from foreign
source. When Prof. Nansen the gallant
explorer concluded to make his memoir
able voyage TO the North Pole several
years ago, he had specially-con-
structed vessel, the Fran, made. Of
all the different wood in the world
Douglas fir from Puget sound was
selected, on account of its well-known
strength. The Puget Sound Lumber
Company of Port Gamble furnished
the order. Prof. Nansen's faith in
Douglas fir was not misplaced. The
Fran recently returned from the NJ rth
and here is what Prof. Nansen had to
say about the staunch little craft
"On January 4 and 5 the Fran was
exposed to the most violent pressure
we experinced. She was then firmly
frozen in ice of more than thirty feet
of measured thickness. This foe was
overridden by great ice masses, which
were pressed against the port side
with irresistible force and threatened
to bury, if not to crush her. The
necessary provisions, with the canvas
kayaks and other equipments had
been placed Oh ice every man was
ready to leave the ship if necessary
and was prepared to continue to drift
living on the foe. But the Fran
proved even stronger than our trust in
her. When the pressure rose to the
highest and the ice was piled so high
above the bulwarks she was broken
loose and slowly lifted out of her bed
in which she had been frozen, Not
the slightest sign of split was to be
discovered in her. After that experience
l considered the Fran almost equal to
anything in the way of pressure. After
that we experienced nothing more OF
the kind, but our drift rapidly con
tinued north and northwestward.'
