Sound Canneries Combine.

SAN. Francisco, Feb. 25.-During
the past few days the principals of a
new salmon packers combine on Pu-
get sound have held several meetings
in this city and arrangements. haV
practically been completed TO launch
the project next April. George T..
Myers, one of the large packers i'll the
Sound country, and president OF the
Puget Sound Salmon Packers Associa-
ton, has been at the Occidental hotel
for several days, and HARDWOOD B. Nor
gan, secretary OF the salmon concern
is also here.
The presence in the city of B. A.
Seaborg, another heavy packer, and
several other cannerymen from the
Sound, has caused much comment
and speculation. George T. Myers
admitted last night that the new COM
blne had practically been arranged by
T. B. McGovern, of New York, who
succeeded last year in combining the
Gamers on the Columbia river, so as
to control the price of salmon.
THE object of the combine" had
said Myers, "is to control the price o.
the Puget Sound packers as well as to
reduce the running expenses of our
.canneries. When McGoverp, went to
New York few days ago he carried
with him options on Seaborg's can
merry at Fairhaven, the Anacortes
Packing Company's and Rosario
Packing Company's plants at Anacor-
ties, and that of George T. Myers & Co.,
at Seattle. The price ranges all the
way from 100000 to $4,000 and the
four are of the biggest concerns on the
Sound. Four other packers have
agreed to enter the combine when all
is ready, so that the thing is practic-
ally done.
The Puget Sound Salmon Packers
Association was organized two years
ago with seventeen canneries. Three
of these fell into the hands of the Pa
cific American Fisheries Company
OF the fourteen remaining, eight OF
the largest have agreed to enter the
new combine, and there is 70 doubt
that the others will follow suit when
they are asked to join. The eight
canneries mentioned own some of the
finest fishing grounds on the Sonnd
The plan OF the new combine is to buy
only enough new canneries to pack
the catch, and only those most adj
vantageously situated to where the
run of fish is found.
In this way large amount of money
will be saved in operating expenses
enough, in fact, TO enable the combine
to sell below other packers at profit.
This gives the combine a leverage that
enable it to dictate terms to the O ther
packers, and thus fix the market value
of the canned product, which may lie
higher or lower, as the combine man
ayers think best.-P.-I.

What About the Cinnamon?

The difficulties that have arisen
over the recommendation as to tariff
or free trade with Puerto Rico are
only the beginning of colonial prob
lens to America. A much more diff
cult question is before the Philippine
commission as to the Chinese in the
Philippines. While the United States
excludes Chinese immigration, the
problem in Luzon is not so much that
of immigration as what to do with
those already on the islands, thousands
III number. Moreover, the Chinese
have done great work in developing
the islands and are indispensable in
several lines of business. A wholesale
deportation of these would upset bust
ness conditions and besides would re-
tard the prosperity Of the islands.
They are, however, no more abundant
in the Philippines than in British
possessions in the Malay peninsula
and the Straits Settlements. The
British regulate and restrain the
Chinese, but utilize them to the great
advantage of the country By study
ing British methods III these respects
the commission can probably solve
this problem, but not in accordance
with American rigid exclusion laws

State Has Over 100000 People.

The coming census is expected to
show a population in the state Of
Washington of over half million peo-
pie, an increase during the past ten
years of fully 80 percent and possibly
60 or Is percent. Census Supervisor
J. B. Mcmillan, of Fairhaven, who is
the west side supervisor, believes the
showing made in the next census will
entitle this state to two more represen-
tatives in Congress, with q possibility
that fifth may be gained II is GER
tain to entitle the state to at least
one more congressman.
Supervisor Mcmillan bases his csti-
mate for the year on the theory that
no city or locality has lost in popula-
ton since 1890 and most of them show
big gain. This is especially true of
the west side cities. Spokane, Walla
Walla,. North Yakima, Ellensburg and
the farming communities of Eastern
Washington. The immigrant move
ment, which has brought large num-
Der OF Eastern people to this state and
natural causes to Induce immigration
Will swell the farm population beyond
anything the state has been able to
show heretofore.
The last census showed this state
was fully entitled to the two congress
men accorded it. II there has been
any noteworthy increase it is certain
to grant another congressman. Census
Supervisor Mcmillan says the popula-
ton OF the state will not fall below
$4,000 and he believes it NAV 90
much higher. On this basis the state
would be entitled to three representa-
tlyes and if Mr.. McMlllan's higher es-
innate is correct another will be Sc
cured.
Ii the state is accorded new mem
Der OF Congress, the legislature will
probably district the state at it's ses-
sion next year. This has been pro-
posed for several years, but has never
been taken up. At the coming session
for the first time in the states history.
there will be no senatorial contest and
1t is expected the state will be redis-
tricted. The plans which have already
been suggested, on the supposition
that three congressman would be ac-
corded Washington, are to give one to
the east side two to Western Wash
ington. 1t is estimated this woull be
the ratio of population.
The census OF 1900 is to be taken bv

creation of new counties would make

stances, but the new census will show

sentation should be accorded each
