AT the assessors convention held in
Ellensburg, Wash, timber land valu-
alton was discussed. It was decided
to assess lands estimated at 100000
feet to the quarter at $40 an acre,
those with 100000 $3.50. and those
with 100000 feet 81 per acre.
Like all job lot valuations, this is. ar
bitary. Perhaps no part of the econo-
mic system of government in this
country is SO generally wrong as the
department over which the assessor
rules. To secure absolute values is
impossible. There are times when
there is no market nor demand by
which values may be guaged. Again

Lumber Market Increasing.

The demand for Washington fir and
cedar lumber in the Eastern market
this season will be greater than last
year by fully one-balf, says 7. 3. Ham
llton, a lumber dealer of Sioux City,
Iowa, who is in Seattle on one of his
periodical trips looking after trade.
Mr.. Hamilton's firm has tour yards in
Iowa and is one of the largest handlers
of Washington lumber in his state
His company also carries large stock
of red cedar shingles and to these two
products of the North Pacific coast
be has pinned his faith.
Lumber OF all kinds in the Central
states markets is bringing a better
price this spring than last" he said
last night. "The demand this season
is much greater than last in all parts
of the country, but what the Central
states markets want is Washington fir
1t may seem strange thing. but
nevertheless it is true that the product
of the Sound is driving Southern pine
to the wall. This is manly due to the
fact that fir takes a good polish and
is more suitable Of interior decoration
In fact it has established itself as an
interior wood in our section, and al
though more expensive than pine on
account Of our remote market, we are
selling much more of it,
"There is a tremendous amount oil
building going on and in contempla-
ton in the Central states, which gives
evidence that there will be no let up
in the market for some time to com
All that Is worrying us is to get our
orders filled here.
"The market for red cedar shingles
is increasing in our section and this
year we will probably use double the
amount we didlast. This is not due to
any increased desire on the part OF
builders to use the Washington grades
for it is well-known fact. even much
further East than we are. that none
better is. manufactured. 1t is due to
the increase in building operations.
"On the. whole our Washington lum-
Der trade this year will be far in excess
of last. "-P.-I.

THoRITE, the new high explosive. is

Physician, chemist who went to
the Klondike, and made use of his
talents in discovering powder which
could be used in tearing up the frozen
ground and opening its gold. The
difficulty with nitro glycerine and
other explosives was their sensativeness
to heat and cold, and the result of his
experiments was thorite. The inven-
tor offered to sell his secret and aid in
the manufacture for $3.50 900, and Gen.
Miles has poked up the bureau to
make use of the explosive in the army.

James J. Hills Talks.

President Hill, of the Great North
ern Railroad, whose interests extend
from Seattle to New York, and which
are larger than those of any single in
dividual on the Pacific coast, has not
only been interviewed by the papers
on his recent visit to the West, but he
has given talk before the business
men of Seattle at the Chamber OF
Commerce in that city, which wildly
outlines the bright future in store for
the Puget Sound region.
AS the head of one OF the greatest
transcontinen:a lines of railroad in
the world, with his steamships plying
on the great lakes and on the P lfic
to Honolulu, China, Manila aid ia

only the force of prophecy but of facts
already accomplished. Of the great
ness of the West he has no doubts.

commerce of the Orient in unbroken
stream.

products of her mines and farms al.

Simpson Single Mill Closes.

With the hope of saving the Wash
ington Red Cedar Single Manufac-
turer's Association from going to pieces
and assisting in the effort now being
made by shingle manufacturers in this
territory to maintain the present asso-
citation price list in the face of weak
Eastern market, the Simpson Logging
Company, one of the producers in the
state yesterday morning gave orders to
close down their big mill in Mason
county and keep it closed until such a
time as the conditions warrant re-
opening. The order was issued by
Francis Rotch, manager of the single
department, yesterday morning, ard is
significant as being the first of the big
| mills to come into the agreement to
close down for two weeks.
ayes, I have just telephoned to the
MILL" said Mr.. Rotch, yesterday,
"giving orders to close down at once
and discharge all the crews for an in
definite period. We are among the
largest producers OF shingles in the
state, and can say now that not a
car of our stock on hand will be sold
less than the present association list if
I can prevent it.
"This is serious time with shingle
manufacturers, and some action must
be taken at once or the association will
go TO pieces. / view the present sit
uation with alarm, but we can all
save ourselves by united action in
closing down. If we don't, then the
good work of the shingle association,
which has cost us so much during the
past nine months, will have gone for
naught, and prices will decline at a
rapid rate.
eve take this action among the
larger mills in the hope that others
who are still holding out will see the
matter in the right light and come
into the agreement. We mnst secure
the consent of 80 per cent. of the
mills of the state before a shutting
down can lie ordered
"Now this is what the Simpson
Logging Company will do. We will
close down our shingle mill. We have
seven logging camps, and these we
propose to keep in operation. We will
put our logs into the lake and kept
them there. We shall not turn a
wheel in our mill until the prices of
our product have been established.
If the other large mills will agree to
do the same thing, the single associ-
alton will soon be on firm basis and
be able to do much good work in
maintaining the present lists.
"If We find that it takes longer than
two weeks to put the market on its
feet, we shall continue to put our logs
in the lake, and only when forced to
will sell to those who desire to manu-
facture at cut prices.
"Already some of the mills here
have begun cutting, several going as
low as cents. / received evidence of
this In my morning mail from four
travelling men. We must act quickly
and together otherwise prices will go
topieces: and once down, it will be a
bard matter to restore them.
i "We have now in stock about 5000.
OOO shingles. We have orders for
three cars at association prices, when
we should have had fourteen. We
shall not sell car at cut list.-P. /.

The coming of hordes of Japs to
this country bids fair to cause a feel
ing among the working men like that
of the days when Dennis Kearney held
forth on the Frisco "sand-lots" with
his famous battle-cry, "The Chinese
must CO." While the japanese are a
grade above the Chinese in the ten
dency to Americanize themselves, the
element now coming to this coast is
said to be largely of an undesirable
class. The only restriction made at
this time is to see that each has at
least $50 under his blouse and is fairly
able to become self-supporting Most
of them are contract laborers, although
it cannot be proven, and some means
should be provided to discriminate
against them. Their employment on
the railroads will soon prove serious
menace to the white laborer. The
better class of japanese are destined to
take up cooking and house work, and
i'll be largely employed in the near
future, we imagine, owing to the diff
Guilty of securing white girls to per-
form this service satisfactorily. Much
as the foreigner is actually detested by
those who have had any experience
with them, they make good help,
being industrious, capable, willing,
faithful and skillful, and the worried
housewife will be forced to choose the

The silver in circulation, including standard dollars, subsidiary coin, silver certificates and treasury notes now aggregates $631, ,139, ,639, Four years ago the total was figured out to be $55S, ,524, ,447. The increase in circulation in four years is $492, ,645, ,043, or 92 per cent, the gold circulation being also now larger than ever before, it's in- crease In four years being 60 per cent.
