Washington, June 4.-Congress is in
the last gasps of a long session, and
its expiration apparently is to be quite
perfunctory. Unless something extra
ordinary occurs no further geneal leg
islation Of national Importance will be
enacted before final adjournment. The
senate was in session more than ten
hours nearly four hours Of which
were spent in executive session. The
only feature Of the days session was
q speech on the Philippine question
by Senator Teller (Colo) and an ef-
fort by Senator Pettigrew Is. Dak.)
to obtain consideration for the anti
trust bill passed by the house Sahr-
day. At night a picturesque session
was beld--a sort of social session-at
which many senator's appeared in full
dress, and the galleries were thranged
by gaily attired crowd OF spectators
Senator Pettigrew replied at length to
the speech of Senator Spo0ner tWisD
on the Philippines, but did not con-
cmde his remarks The remainder III
the session was consumed in con-
sidcration of The conference reports
and in passing the minor measures on
the calendar

Supt. Burke says that it can he re-
placed for considerably less money than
IL is now assessed for. The buildings
are mere shells, the machinery is not
expensive, and the boats, nets, web ana
fishing paraphernalia are all assessed
In WhatcOsn county, where the com.
pany pays taxes upon u valuation OF
$3.50, 900, which includes the greatest
cannery establishment i'm the world,
equipped with the most modern ma
chinery; all of Eliza island with its
large buildings filled with immense
stores of nets, seines, web. cOrttage, etc. ;
scores of scOws and seine-bOats and
nine steamers.
The East Sound Bryanite circular
says that the cOmpany's presen: ASSESS
ment in this county is $3.50. The
records of the county treasurer show
that the company paid taxes this year
upon $lO,6l3 and we have already
quoted Mr.. Burke, who has spent years
| in the cannery business and is familiar
with every detail of it, as saying that
he could replace the plant here, en-
tirely new, for considerably less than
the assessed valuation.
~
Now q few more words as to the
Roche Harbor Lime Company. The
editor of this paper will hardly he
charged with partiality toward 1t, in
view of the fact that all of the COM
pany's work which our Office might do
is sent out of the county, and the fur
ther fact that the president OF the com
pany has lost no opportunity for NOR,
than two years of demonstrating his un-
friendliness toward the writer. Never
| theless the company has always been
treated with the utmost fairness by
this paper under its present owner
ship.
The county records show that seven
years ago the company paid more than
one tenth of the total taxes of the
county, and that the reductions Of its
assessments since that time have been
less proportiOnately than the reductions
upon the best farms in the county.
Will (any sane man contend that its
property is now or ever has been equal
in value to one tenth Of all the prop
erty i'm the, county? The present assess
or has raised the cOmpany's valuation
nearly $l4 900 In two years and 1t might
he remarked incidentally that both the
president and superintendent OF the
company, who were delegates to the
Republican county convention, voted
against the assessors denomination.
The company pays its taxes promptly
and cheerfully and the records fail to
show that it ever tried to escape its
'.just share of public burdens"
~
Ye gods and little fishes! what does
the "East Sound Bryan Club" want
anyhow? Does it want to sap the life.
blood out of the institutions which are
the greatest employers Of labor which
this county has, ever had or ever can
expect to have? Does it want to take
the bread out of the mOunths of hun
dreds of men, women and children who
are dependent upon the very industries
which they have especially marked for
assault? Does it want to destroy the
best local market which the farmers
have for their poultry, eggs, meat, dairy
and garden products? Does IL pine fOr
a return of such a period Ofdiscord, dis
union and discomfort, hard times,
bonds, debts, strikes and Coxey armies
az that which distinguished the last
Democratic national administration?

THE ISLANDER would have consid

such men as MIR. TullOck and Mr.. Hick.
and others OF the EAST Sound Bryan

not know that fish traps, in which they
admit that the chief value of the P. A

under the law of this state. If Mr.
TullOck, for instance, goes out i'm front
of his place with a hook and line, or 9
net of any kind, and catches a salmon
or a sucker-dOes he think that some

a marvel of modern map making. Its maps ire unlike those you've seen in

These War Maps form one of the very many valuable features to be found
only in 1.-The Century," When they are consulted in connection with the
thousands of encyclopedia ardcles-teling authortativey the stories of these
same battles, the causes which preciptahd them, and the ife-hisoies of the
heroes who fought in them-they afford a most complete understanding of the
very subjects all Emgish-speaking people carer reading most about these days,
