Tobasco,
The Sauce That has Made
New Iberia Famous.
A New Factory for its Manu-
facture to be Erected
Here.

There liz perhaps no relish as well
known to the cpicure as the old
established Tobasco pepper sance.
II has gone forward year after yea
until "New Iberia" is known as the
home of Tobasco from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, and even far
beyond.
Tobasco, We are informed, is a
Spanish word. and is the name of
the particular variety of pepper
employed in the manufacture of the
sauce. This pepper grows to perfec-
ton in this vicinity and yields a
delicacy of flavor not obtaluable
from the same variety grown in
many other soils. The process Of
the manufacture of the sauce has
baen and is a secret.
Now comes the promise of a new
firm, with Mr.. C. p. Moss at Its
head, who says that after years of
experimenting he has evolved a
recipe for the manufacture of a
superb and delicious sauce from the
Tobasco pepper. Tha! after many
tests, he is now satisfied that the
con,aoissescr will recognize in his
sauce an article superior to any on
the market heretofore. That
arrangements have been perfected
for the manufacture of the sauce in
large quantities at this place which
will be the domlclle of the COM
pany. And that he hopes to make
New Iberia better known to the
outside world by the extended use
Of his new "2Oth Century" Tobasco
pepper sauce. |

THE spring run of salmon on Puget
sound has commenced. Seven or
eight OF the traps are in and one of
them was raised a few days ago, bring
ing up 200 fish. On Wednesday an
other found but seven in the net. The
majority of the trapmen are not yet
ready to place their nets in the water.
The streams emptying into Paget
sound are closed during the month of
April and the state fish commissioner
is taking precaution to prevent illicit
fishing in these waters The rnle COM
pelling fishermen to have licences by
the first of April, on penalty OF arrest
for fishing without license, is being
strictly enforced. Deputy fish COM
missioners are now out on the Sound
and Columbia river watching for illeg-
al fishing. The salmon market is
opening strong this year. Six and a
quarter cents pound is being paid by
Puget sound buyers, and there is every
indication that this price will be either
maintained or bettered during the sea-
son. Fishermen and fish dealers state
the market is stronger at the begin
ming of this season than they have
known it for years. The fish commits
sioner will probably begin work in
May on two Or three new fish hatch
erles. The first will be constructed on
the White river, the second on the Me-
thow and the third on the Nisqually
The other five provided for by the leg
islature are to be located on the Colville
Klickitat, Stillaguamish, Dungeness
and Skagit. 1t may be found impossi-
BILE to build all of these this year

The Money In Circulation.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-More money
per capita, more gold, more silver and
a larger total of money in circulation
than ever before is tue summar ization
OF the "Circulatlon Statement issued
by the treasury department tor April

history of the country the per capita
circulation has crossed the $26 line,
and the year 1900 carried the total for
the first time past the $4,000. 900, 900
line, while the amount of gold and
gold certificates in circulation is slarger
than at the corresponding date of any
previous year.
The "Circulation Statement" which
is issued at the beginning of each
month, shows the total money in cir
culation on April l, 1900, to be 50, OIL
274 500, and on April l, 1899, 81 ,927,
S46,942, while on the corresponding
date in 1898 it was $1,756,05S,64 on
April l, 1896, $1,52S,62 ,469. This
shows an increase in total money in
circulation in four years of $492, ,645,
O43, or 80 per cent.
The per capita money in circulation
or the average amount for each indi-
vidual in the United States, is also
larger than ever before, being $26.l2

II 1895, 5,000), against $25.45 one year
ago, $23.60 two years ago, $23.01 three
years ago, and $21. .53 on April 1, 1896.
The amount of gold in circulation

ing date of any preceding year, the

Have Settled Down To Business.

The trade prosperity of Hawaii since
annexation will be repeated in all of
our new possessions. Hawaiian ex-
ports last year increased some $4,000
600, or about 80 per cent. Of course
the great bulk of the trade now is with
the United States. The future of the
islands being assured, there is no reason
for further political agitation and the
people settle down TO business. The
prosperity of all our new possessions
as soon as their status is established by
congress will crafty us and them
and astonish the world. We venture
to declare that the future embar-
rassment of the United States will
consist principally in dealing with
with the petitions of other peoples who
seeing tbe material consequences OF
annexation, beg to be taken under our
care.-P. /

FROM reports of principal cargo ship
ping mills of Washington to the West
Coast and Puget Sound Lumberman,
it is shown that exports of lumber by
water during March were %, ,297 ,O30
feet, Of which II ,970.3 $40 feet went
coastwise and III ,326, $50 feet foreign.
For the FIRST quarter OF 1900 shipments
coastwise were 59.346, ,602 feet and
foreign S9.l95.736 feet total of SO,
542, 1888 feet. Rail shipments reflect a
continued active movement and mar
ked expansion in Eastern demands.
The total for March amounted to 1896
cars. or 3O,8S0,O00 feet OF lumber,
more than the entire shipments by
water foreign and coastwise, while fol
three months shipments reach 1855,
600 feet, against 40,O16 600 feet last
year. OF shingles 2,243 carloads were
shipped in March, aggregating 381.

quarter OF 1900 rail business has am.
ounted TO 836, 81 Q, 1000, against 514.

In signed address to "The Bimet-
allists of the United States," issued as
soon as the result of the election of
1896 was known, Mr.. w. ]. Bryan
said: The Republican candidate has
been heralded as the advance agent of
prosperity. If his politics brings real
prosperity to the American people,
those who opposed him will share in
that prosperity. If, on the other hand,
his politics prove an injury to the
people generally. those of his supporters
who do not belong to the ofiicehold-
ing class will suffer in common with
those who opposed him." That was
very ordinary philosophy, but it is
interesting to note his stand today.
The people are enjoying prosperity and
say so, but Bryan declares he cannot
see it. Bryan is dishonest and the
people are rapidly finding it OUT

American Railroads.

General Passenger Agent Francis, oil
the Burlington Route, sends out the
following interesting information re-
garding the mileage of some great
American railroads:
Exclusive of side and double tracks
the mileage of the four longest roads
is as follows: Chicago & Northwestern
S,346 miles; Burlington Route, 1859;
Santa Fe, 7,718; Canadian Pacific, Z,
6S4. Most persons guess the Pennsyl-
vania and the Southern Pacific among
the first four. The Southern Pacifc
ranks fifth with 1901 miles; then
comes the Pennsylvania with 7O93
miles. The Great Northern is credited
with, 5,o03 miles, and the Northern
Pacific with 4,746 miles of road.
1t is surprising to some people to
find so many we'll known roads of the
east with comparatively small mileage.
The Boston & Albany is only 394
miles long. In other words, the road
that unites the Hub with the capital
of the Empire State and is one of the
busiest and richest roads on the conti-
nent, is scarcely more than one-twen-
tieth as long as the Burlington Route.
The Fitchburg road, favorably known
not only in New England but all over
the country, is exactly 45S miles long.
The Lackawanna line, which has be-
come widely known as great trunk
line since western enterprise came to
direct its management, is less than
l 700 miles long, and might be absor-
bed as branch line by any one of a
half dozen western railroads.
Some railroads with but little mile
age have been endowed with uncom-
monty long names. The Beaver
Meadow, Tresckow & New Boston
railroad has all of three miles of track
built and in actual operation. Some
day the superintendent OF the depart
ment of motive power and machinery
of the Beaver Meadow, Tresckow &
New Boston railroad may take a trip
over his own line, stretching from
Beaver Meadow, Pa, all the way to
New Boston Pa, total distance of
81 miles.
The Manitou & Pixies Peak railroad,
the famous cog-wheel road ascending
Colorado's lofty peak, is nine miles
long, but if you tried to walk the ties
of this railroad you would think it
had mileage of 999 miles. The Cairo
railroad is four miles long, and there
is small road in the Catskill noun
tains which has mileage of two miles.
The most popular length of the
nearly 900 American railroads appears
to be less than 10 miles. There are
over 600 railroads less than this dis
tance in length. There are many
other interesting features which cur
sorry examination of the mileage of
American railroads will disclose. But
if you want to collect few bets from
your friends, just ask them to name
the four longest railroads in America.
You'll win.
