We can stop eating. Some people have

FINANCIAL LEGISLATION
Bill to Maintain Silver at IL Parit!
~,-.. With Gold.

Washington, Jan. 10.-The first financial
measure Of Importance to be reported to
the house is that agreed upon yesterday
by the committee on coinage, weights
and measures, providing for the main
tenance Of the legal tender silver dollar
at parity with gold and for the in
crease of the subsidiary silver coinage.
The measure was introduced by Represen-
tative Hill Of Connecticut. 1t au-
thorizes the coinage Of subsidiary silver
coin without regard to limit and as public
necessity may require. The most i'm
portant feature of the bill is:
The secretary of the treasury is hereby d
rected to maintain at all times at parity with
gold, the legal tender silver dollars remain
ing outstanding, and to that end he is hereby
directed to exchange gold for legal tender
silver dollars when presented to the treasury
in the sum Of So or any multiple thereof; and
all provisions of law for the use or main
tenance of the reserve fund in the treasury
relating to United States notes are, in the
discretion of the secretary of the treasury,
hereby made applicable to the exchange OF
legal tender silver dollars.

EVERETT OR SEATTLE FAVORED
One of the Most Complete Plants

Special to The Journal.
Seattle, Wash, Jan. 10.-The Weyer-
haeuser syndicate. composed of wealthy
eastern people who have been for some
time engaged in purchasing Pacific coast
ssawmill properties, will erect a Shipbuild-
ing plant at some point on the sound.
The information is from a reliable source
and it is said that the choice of locations
lies between Everett and Seattle. The
syndicate already has small ship yard
at Everett, but that fact, it is claimed,
Will be Of secondary Importance when it
comes to location. r.. -r..
Negotiations are represented to be yet
pending between the agents of the syn
dictate and several local firms for the pur-
chase outright Of such Ocations as would
answer the purpose of the corporation.

Try TO a great extent through one large,
capable and efficient establishment. Wher-
ever located, however, whether in Seattle
or at some other point, the plans provide
Tor the expenditure of large sum OF
money. and the construction Of one OF the
most complete plants north Of San Fran
cisco, where the largest ocean steamships
can be turned out with the facility and
speed that a small sized schooner now is.
Ballard, at Interplay, is~engaging favor
able attention from the company'S agents.
The place already has several good sized
shipbuilding plants in operation and there
is the nucleus for such mammoth in
dustry as is proposed. But several OBJ
jections have been raised as to the pur-
chasing and condemning of land and the
necessary excavation of tide lands, which
may result in Ballard losing the rich
prize.

,3 to Policy.

Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 10.-Governor
Leslie NJ. Shaw was given public re-
ception last evening by the Grant Club
In honor of his elevation to the portfolio
OF the United States treasury.
The reception was held at the Savoy
house and was followed by a banquet, at
which covers were laid for $50 guests,
which included nearly all the leading re-
publicans In the state and city.
Governor ELECT A. B. Cummins pre-
sided and delivered brief address in
honor of his predecessor.

Governor Shaw said in part:
l think l need not say that the response
bilities which | am about to assume came
unsought and unexpected. I had planned
and hoped to return to my home and to pur-
suits Sto me far more congenial than public
services.
Concerning policy, I have nothing to say.
Concerning the duties of the treasury de-
partment I might say much. At this time
l shall content myself, however, and con-
tent you by saying little.
The treasury department Is the "bloody
angle of an administration. All l can crave
is the indulgence from the people whom
l love as has been shown me in the past.
