Looks Like Business.

w. B. Hamblin of Boston, Mass,
who has lately been appointed secre-
tary of the Port Angeles Eastern rail
road, arrived In Tacoma on Thursday
and after remaining over a day to at
tend to some business matters, left for
Port Angeles to enter at once upon
his new duties. For twenty years ne
has been at the head of the Boston
Rubber company and the marked sue
cess he has won there led to his selec-
ton by his brother and other Boston
capitalists, who have taken hold OF
the enterprise, to select him as the
man to take charge of the business al
fairs of the company here.
Mr.. Hamblin stated to reporter at
Tacoma that the iron has been pur-
chased for the line which is now grad
ed for distance of thirty miles and
work will be pushed right along to 9
terminus. Two large ferryboats will
be built to run between Port Angeles
and Victoria. These steamers will be
strongly built to transfer the whole
train. across the straits. There il
plenty of eastern capital IN the hands
of energetic men to push the railroad
to an early completion.-Ledger.

What Makes Success in Life.

"We are forever going to begin work
in earnest tomorrow" said Mr.. Stay
bolt, "and we are never satisfied with
the job we've got, and we perform the
labor involved in it in only a half
hearted manner, but we are going to
work in dead earnest when we get a
job to suit us.
"The fact is that tomorrow, when
we get to it, will be to us as today is
to US now. We shan't feel any more
like work; and that other job when we
come in actual contact with it and see
Rit close at hand. won't suit us any
better than the one we've got now
does.
"The truth is that we are cavaliers
and shy of work and trying to get
along just as easy as we can. We
hate TO pitch in and go at things.

JUDGE G. H. Hanford, Of the U. S.
circuit court, sitting at Spokane, has
decided that as soon as lands are allot-
ed to Indians and patented, the In
dams may sell such lands as they see
fit. The court holds that the clause
inserted in all patents to Indians Of
lands providing that the Indian shall
not ALLEVIATE title : for % years, is alb
solutely illegal and void. The decision
points out how the insertion of this
anti-alienation provision has been
made through mistake, is not based
upon any legislation and is of no bind
ing force or effect.-Vancouver Regis
ter.
While the JOURNAL has not received
the text of the decision, we understand
it has no reference to allotted lands
but covers only lands held by indiana
under the homestead laws, as in the
case of Tom Sloc um with his tract ad.
joining Shelton.
