hard work and great rustiing they got
their share. In two years their quarters
were too small and large building was
erected on Yesler avenue about where Rail-

equipped with better machinery than the
other and had foundry attached. Every
thing went along nicely until the great

the great natural advantages of the tide

pared a plant on the fats. On the morn

on a larger scale than ever. The present
