the United States was smaller than

of malt liquors fell from 1516 gallons
in 1896 and 1908 gallons in 1898 to

ton of distilled spirits was just about
the same as in 1896, or one gallon
and much below the average of recent
years of nearly gallon and a half,
while there was some little increase in
wine consumption, which rose to trl-

First Mill Man ID adj.

Charles Hanson, owner, general
manager and one of the founders OF
the oldest aud one of the larg's ST lum-
Der mannfac turing plants in Tacoma
and the world, died at his home IN
San Francisco Monday. He is survlv-
ed by Mrs. Hanson and their son, VII
liam, superintendent of the mill.
Mr.. Hanson has been feeble and
quite i'll for some time, but the news
of his death was surprise even to his
son. Shortly before the telegram at
nouncing the death was received,
word came by wire to the son that his
father was improving. The death was
the result OF a. complication O com
plants and general debility. TIE last
illness lasted but a week.
The veteran Hanson held interests
in the Grays Harbor Mill at Cosmopo-
lis, the Puget Sound Tug Boat Com
pany, a fleet of sailing vessels In the
coasting trade on this coast, extensive
timber tracts throughout the Pacific
Northwest, and business interests in
Redwood City, Cal. Mrs. Hanson
and William, being the sole survivors
of the family, will, 1t is thought, be
the only heirs.
Charles Hanson was born in Den
mark 65 years ago. He made his start
in life as sea captain on the coast OF
California. He established the Taco
ma Mill in 1868 on its present site,
and which was hewed out Of the forest
of magnificent fir trees that stood in
primeval splendOr over the entire site
OF the present city of Tacoma. The
mill was first under the management
of Hanson, Ackerson & Co., later Han
son & Co., until 1884 when the local
concern was incorporated under the
name of the Tacoma Mill ComI any

several years the Tacoma Mill carried

Another Bad Law Knocked.

CHEHALIs, March 2O-Judge I'll S.
Elliott, who was elected superior jud. e
of this district on the peoples party
ticket IN 1896. has just decided tn at
another act of the late lamented Pop
ulist legislature is unconstitutional.
Prior to 1896 the purchaser at mort
ga, foreclosure sales was held entitl-
ed, upon confirmation of sale of The
land, to immediate possession and to
rents, issues and profits, notwithstand-
ing the debtor had right to redeem.
The last legislature passed a special
act for the relief of debtors whose
lands we're sold under mortgage fore
closure or executive sales and enacted
that from and after the passage of said
act, the debtor should have the right
to remain in possession and receive
the rents, ETC., during the redemption
period, twelve months from date of
sale.
In the case of George Frasier VS.. j.
S. Phillips, under foreclosure of II
mortgage given by the defendent pr =
or to the act above referred to, and in
which the sale of the realty has taken
place since the passage of the new law
Judge Elliott has decided that the
plaintiff is entitled to immediate pos
session and that, in so far as the act
might refer to mortgages given prior
to its passage, it is unconstitutional,
regardless of the date of sale. -Ledger.
Judge Elliott is one of the fruits of
fusion, and our fusion friends can't
claim that the republicans knocked
out that wild legislation.
The Mason County journal. [volume] (Shelton, W.T.) 1886-1927, 1898-03-25

The state administration, those who
reaped the benefit of the fusion in the
last general election, are very much
alarmed at the con ditions, and are
working everything possible to secure
victory at Tacoma. Spokane and
Seattle have both repudiated fusion
and fusiOnists, and if Tacoma is lost,
the battle will be ended without wait
ing fer the fall elections. The Taco
ma Ledger says: "The anxiety of the
officials to carry Tacoma is obvious
Without some lever, the West side is
gone. King County, they fear, will
return IA Republican legislature and a
list OF Republican county officials.
But so far as the county officials are
concerned, there is little apprehension
felt. 1t is the legislature that the adj
ministration wants. A senator is to
be elected next year. If Tacoma goes
against the fusionists the workers ON
the West side will become discouraged,
while victory would leave some rea-
son to hope.
jefferson County is Republican,
there is a good chance in Whatcom
San Juan is represented by Republi-
can, Skagit County is weakening and
Snohomish is nearly ready to fall.
Add Clallam to this and the North
west is solid against the fusionists as
far south as King County. The adj
ministratiou is attempting to stop the
avalanche at the Pierce County line,
Tor south of here the same results
would apply. Pacific county went
against them last year, AID the other
West side counties are all close. A
big victory either way in Tacoma, it is
figured, would swing this side of the
state,

Indian Boarding Schools

Of reopening the boarding school there.
This VAS closed about two years ago
AMI a day school substituted In It's
ulaee This was done contrary to the
advice of those whites living OR the
reservation, who foresaw that 1t would
he "A failure. The Indians sent pro-
le,t to Washington at the time. The
whites about this place and also about
shelton protested against it, but to no
purpose.
Last summer, after it was seen that
the average attendance was less than
nine for the first eight months, the In
dians sent Il petition to the commiss-
Toner Of Indian affairs, asking that the
boarding school be reopened This
was signed by every adult Indian then
on the reservation. 1t was accOmpan-
led by a similar petition from the sur
rounding whites and a letter from the
missionary on the reservation, and
was endorsed by the local superintend-
emf on the reserv alton and by the act
Jog agent. 1t WAS refused.
At the request, however, of DIR. &. j.
American Missionary Association,
which has had mission there for over
twenty years. Dr. W. N. Mailman,
superintendent of Indian schools de-
cided to reopen the investigation and
consequently has sent his supervisor of
education to report. From the fact
that the average attendance during
January and February last was less
than three, it seems that something
ought to be done. For this small at
| tendance the Indians are not altOgeth
or 10 blame; neither is the teacher;
but the conditions are impractical, as
most of the scholars. nearly all of
whom are small, live from one to three
miles from the school house, while
seventy inches Of rain between NOvem-

during that time, makes travelling for
them almost impossible. Prof. Rake

itv of reopening the boarding school

Protection in the Puget Sound District

The statement OF the business of the
Puget Sound customs district for the
past eight months, as compared with
the same period the previous year,
gives practical illustration of the
beneficial effects of the Dingley tariff
law. The plain figures cannot be dis
puted nor misunderstood. While the
imports of the district for the later
period were $445,778 larger than for
the same period in the previous year,
the receipts from the customs were in
creased 1854 ,455.2O or an increase OF
over 40 per cent over those of the for
mcr period.
A gratifying showing is that of the
receipts and expenses of the customs
district, the cost of collections having
been decreased during the administra-
ton of Collector Huestis from 304 to
81 9, the apparent increase in expenses
beng more than covered by the salary
of the newly appointed tea inspector.
The receipts for the past eight months
were 1924, 2S6, with expenses of 1906
81.
The report also shows gratifying
| increase of business in all directions,
imports and exports, the latter havinl
increased tor the eight months to the
extent of three and a quarter millions
against an increase of imports of less
than half million of dollars.
The business of the dlstric; makes a
gratifying showing with regard to the
cost of carrying on the business of the
district, but II per cent of the re-
ceipts. 1t is doubtful if any district
in the country will make a better
showing for economy, with such small
percentage of expense compared with
receipts, or for proportionate increase
OF business. The vital importance Of
the report, however, is the illustration
of the practical benefits of the present
tariff law as revenue producer. Its
benefits to our local interests If coal
lumber and other products are thor
oughly understood and appreciated,
and will prove effective in bringing
the State of Washington back to it,
OLD place in the ranks of sound money
and a protective tariff.-Ledger.
