AUTO LEGISLATION DEMANDED
Something will soon have to be done
for protection of those owning teams
from the automobiles. Mr.. g. A.
Steadman reports that as he was re.
turning home from town, on Thurs
day of last week, by the road that
passes the cemeteries, he was met by q
mOtor-carriage, swiftly bowling along
near the Snider place, but happily es.
capped serious damage to team and
self by quickly springing to the ground
and Selling his horses by the bride
bits. AS it was, he got off with few
scars from his plunging team. 1t is
evident that, like the bicycle, when it
first appeared, there will have to be
legislation for vehicles that are not
restrained or guided by even horse sense
In this instance, MIR. S. was SO frus-
tratcd by the sudden turn OF events
that he can give no description of the
flying devil, other than it had wheels
and kicked up mighty dust. He in.
tends, however, to hereafter maintain,
if possible, a placidity of nerve that
will enable him to begin u suit for
| damages if any should result from
! another encounter.

NUMBERING NOTES.
Items Of Interest From the West Coast and
PUGET Sound Lumberman.

Low stocks for rail shipments should
mean higher prices. 1t is conceded
by buyers that stocks are light in
lumber and shingles.
British Columbia loggers will not be
allowed TO send across the international
line logs that have been cut on crown
lands. A recent decision of the gov
eminent has been made on this vexed
question. The ruling will make logs
cheap in the province.
The year 1904 has been bad one for
wholesalers. This is especially true
in the red cedar trade. Margins have
been practically obliterated. There
has been nothing in the conditions
to warrant anyone entering the whole.
sale lumber trade. Nevertheless, there
have been some additions along the
line.
Coast lumbermen should keep q
sharp lookout for the lumber and
timber needs OF the Isthmian Canal.
Already two large orders have been
placed for yellow pine. The southern
lumDermen nave been warm advocates
of canal. They are cutting off few
coupons early in the game.
IF it lies within the limits of posi-
bility, every shingle should 10 made
with a smooth butt. 1t must be &C.
knowledgcd that many Coast shingles
are as ragged on the butt as they would
be if cut with horse. rasp. If there
be any kind OF saw or device that
will make smooth butts it should find
place in every single mill.
Lumber manufacturers should rea-
lie that an increase price to level
profits are attractive to the outsider
will always result in the addition OF
new mills, and consequent increase
in over production. 1t has been
argued by some mill men that the
better prices obtained by not only the
cargo mills, but the car mills in 1902
attracted so much outside capital and
increased the number OF mills to such
an extent that present low prices and
consequent loss will ofitet the good
margins formerly obtained. This il
something we'll worth considering.

Mrs. Eber ]. Kelley of Kettle Falls,
last week. met with singular acct.
dent. She was using the sewing ma.
chine and the needle was run through
the finger at about the center of the
nail. The needle in striking the bone
broke, leaving the point in the finger.
The other portion OF the needle passed
around the bone, through the finger.
pinning her fast to the machine. Mrs.
Kelley was alone. Her cries brought
her husband from the store below,

chine apart to release the unfortunate
sufferer, it not being possible to get
the finger or needle loose in any other

 The house of J. E. Bennett. a proml- nent farmer, two and a half miles from Screven. in Wayne County, was fired into by negroes and one of his nephews received bullet in the crown of his hat last night.
 Sheriff Overstreet. with two blood hounds, spent the night in the vicinity of the Bennett home and made an ef- fort to catch the marauders, but failed. The home of Bennett is virtually in a state of siege. He has been warned that he is a marked man." and his neighbors have been called upon to aid in protecting him.
 Last night a wagon loaded with ne- groes was driven to within a short dis tance of Mir Bennett's home. The negroes dismounted and fired several volleys at the house. The shots were returned by those in the house and the negroes withdrew.
 The negroes have a grievance against MT Bennett for sending a negro preach CT to the chain gang. The negro pushed a young son of MT. Bennett's off a foot log and was prosecuted for 1t.

TRUST IS FRUSTRATED.
Order as to Cigar Stamps VIII Not be
 Modified.

Washington, Sept. 19.-(Special)- The tobacco trust has apparently been frustrated in its efforts to prevent a change in the design and color of the customs stamp on imported cigars. from a large glaring red to a medium sized green stamp.
 Assistant Secretary Armstrong, who is now acting as head of the depart ment in the absence of Secretary Shaw, returned to Washington today from a trip to New York where he met representatives of both the trust and the independent cigar manufacturers. The hearing developed nothing new barring the claim of the trust repre- sentatives that they had never heard from the proposed change in the meth- of the proposed change in the meth cd of stamping imported cigars until a couple of weeks ago al- though the matter has been pend- ing before the treasury department for several months 1t was presented to both branches of Congress at the last session. and has been a subject of agitation by the trade for at least three years.
 Mir. Armstrong thought they were a little late in making thier protest and after listening to their arguments. all of which had previously been presen- teu to anu Dy tHe treasury department officials, said he saw no reason to modify the order
 The independent tobacco trade is thoroughly organized and aroused on the subject. The stamps are now be- ing prepared and unless the order Is revoked by the President, to whom the tobacco trust representatives have since carried the matter. they should be in the hands of the custom officers within three weeks.
 Manufacturers and dealers to the number of two hundred and fifty thousand are said to be awaiting their appearance.
 It was learned at the treasury de- partment today that the President had called for all the papers in the case for the purpose of reviewing the &C., tion of the Department.
