DEMAND Fer THE REGISTER.

The demand for the Sunday Register

popularity of that paper, and an appre-
citation of the fact that it serves its
readers with all the late information
bearing upon the war situation. The

more extra copies of the paper were

A. presen. there IS no glass making
plant in operation west of GreenviIle. Ind,
save a small bottle factory AT Los Angeles
This seems a remarkable fact. The mem
bers OF the committee believe that in the
saving of freight rates across the CONT
nent such an advantage would be gained
as would almost of itself justify the cree
;lcn of a plant here. But in addition the
members OF tho committee see the poss.-
bilitles OF the future development of the
commerce of the Pacific and OF Puget
sound. and in this they believe that Seattle
will occupy i commanding position.
All three ms mberS Of the committee are
practical workmen. They have spent
years In the business OF making glass.
They pursue their Investigations in BUSH
