PARTICULARS HARD TO GET.

As all Of those who have know ledge Of
the fun details Of the scheme are at New
Whatc0nl, ompeging arrangements Of the
concern, ii has been difficult 20 learn just
the full scope Of the company, and the par
t.cuiar fish traps and cAnneries Whica have
been purchased. It Is not believed by pro-
prietors of canneries al Seattle that MIR.
Onffroy has secured a sufficient number Of
traps tor his company 10 give i, j monopoly
OF iAs business, that i. 10 give i power ~
raise and .ower the price Of the product at
viii. Were this power 10 be acquired by
any che combination, Gamers might be at
its mercy until they could secure traps OF
their own.
L don't believe that they control more
than two-iifths of the total production of
the Sound. said Arthur u Dunn, OF Aims
worth & Dunn, which is one OF the largest
canning firms on the ST. und. If You con-
s.der that the total produce Of salmon has
been ~. 90 cases for the past year IL
may be figured that the Chicago people
control much less than oue-half | don't
think that they will handle more than
lQ0esl eases: that is, their traps VIII not
supply more than that number, based on
the catch 81 last wear
None OF the largest Of the canneftes

Company at Anacortes. which put up o.
90 cases and tn Seaborg Company.

nearly supply their needs

COAST CITIES MUST ACT.

COAST CITIES MIST ACT.
The question Of protest by the people
against the cesSlon Of a port to Canada
received a new impetus yeste<tiay when
the matter came up in the Chamber OF
Commerce. During the present week a
determined effort seems to have been
made 20 aliay the fears OF the people of
th,. Pacific coast regarding the intentions
of the Canadians. The commissioners of
that country have denied in pubh~ print
any intention al asking for territory, and
some of the people were calling the cesslon
story ''another newspaper scare" aud
Were inclined TO be lukewarm over pro-
tests.
But interest IN protests reawakened
when President Graves. OF the Chamber
of Commerce. handed to tile secretary
telegram he had received only few hours
before from Washington and signed Nc
Naught anu RcGdy. il read:
'All Coast cities should promptly unite
in urging the high commissioners not to
include any Alaskan harbor III Canadian
trrritory-'
The results OF tie protest already made
by the chamber were set forth in the fol-
lowing:
J. a. Porter, private secretary to Pres-
dent Mckinley. wrote that the protest
would be presented to the president

Ing TO uphold the protest and predicting
that any treaty not giving American min
ers squad rights or cedlng any port could
ever pass the senat" VAS read.
Letters from the Portland and Tacoma
Chambers OF Commerce were read. asking
what Seattle was going TO do about the
Alaskan matter,

This Sounds Good.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
No. days attendance

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition OF the mucous lin
ing Of the eustachian tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when il is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restor-
ed to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out OF ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
ditiOn of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
lars, free. f. ]. CHENEY K Co, TOle-
do, Ohio. Sold by druggists, 75c.
Halls Family Pills are the best.

NEWS ALWAYS WANTED.
How it May be Improved in
Interest.

Every legitimate news item is
eagerly sought by every newspa-
per worthy the name. Don't be
bashful about telling the news;
telephone A is generally in work
ing order, or there is most always
a reporter on the street. That a
party went somewhere may be
news, but if the purpose for doing
so is given, unless for any reason
he would prefer not, the item may
be made more than doubly inter
esting.
A case in point: 1t is a matter
of news that J. Z. Campbell, OF
Alluwe, was a westbound passenger
on the Frisco train this morning.
More persons, however, will be in
terested in knowing that he went
down the Iron Mountain some
days ago to Little Rock, accom-
panying that distance his daugh-
ter, Miss Alberta, who went to
Texarkana. The item is likewise
increased in interest by the in
formation that the young lady is
to act as bridesmaid at the we'd
ding of Miss Eva Payne, on the
Sth inst, Virginia schoolmate of
Miss Campbell.
