noteworthy feature Of American rail-

The Puget Sound cities have al
ready become formidable rivals of San
Francisco as regards the freight and
passenger traffic for Japan, China and
Asiatic ports. The steamer route
from Seattle to the Orient seems to
be more free from storms than that
from San Francisco, and as a large
proportion of the Oriental exports are
products Of the Northwest the freight
traffic has naturally taken this course.
The fact that the full capacity of the

the growing Importance of the Orien-
