Complaint has been made TO Secretary
of War Alger about the leasing OF Station
Prairie. on the Fort Townsend military re-
serve. TO Chinese gardeners. The Chinese
rented this plat of ground last year and
took contracts TO furnish vegetables TO
tug boats. steamers and hotels. besides
peddling in the streets OF Port Townsend.
In consequence II Is alleged the American
farmers In the vicinity OF Port Townsend
found very little market for their produce.
Now, Il Is asserted. the Chinese are GO
ing in on a larger scale They have over
ninety acres planted with vegetables. and
II Is claimed that this will rob the Amer
lean farmers Of their home market entire
" II Is said that the Chinese pay only
dollar day for the rent of this whole
prairie. and the secretary OF war has been
asked TO abrogate the lease and prevent
the Cinnamon from thus entering into
rtflnous competition with the cieizens OF
the state of Washington in that vicinity.
Secretary Algcr has not yet given the
matter fun consideration. but II Is said at
the department that lease Of this charac-
ser Is hardly likely 70 be broken. so long
as the iesSees. even though they be Chi
namen. content themselves with the peace
ful pursuits Of agriculture on the military
reserve.
