that San Francisco will within a few years
be a greater Industrial center than ever
The mere rebuilding of the city will cause
the establishment Of many manufacturing
plants, and its trade with the orient will
re-establsh all the old Industries and bring

almost 1000 manufacturing establishments,
small and large. Ten million dollars are
invested in them and they make product
Of $50, 100000 year. This is according to
the census of 1900. and it shows an increase
of about 300 per cent over the manufac-
lures of ten years ago. This Puget sound
region has vast quantities of coal which
are easily accessible. There are rich de-
posits of irca. copper and other minerals
within short railroad haul, and the timber
resources sSs among the greatest on earth.
Seattle nov has rolling mills cordage
works, saw mills and shipysrds. and 1t will
eventually hRYe sugar rehneries and other
industries. There are terra Gotta works,
furniture factories and factories for the
making of SASH doors, blinds barrels,
boots, shoes, clothing, wooden goods and
number of other things. AS the trade with
the far east grows, industries will rise up
to supply IT., the work being done here in
order to save the heavy freight haul across
the continent. As to lumber, this region
has now 1880 mills, which are making

water Powers of the West.

A great factor in the manufacturing OF
the Pacific slope is to be its water powers.
l have already written of the enormous
falls of the Spokane river. which will make
possible a manufacturing industry for
ninety miles along its course. and which
altogether, it is said, can furnish as many
horsepower as Niagara. The story seems
big, but that is what the Spokane men are
claiming and there is no doubt they have
a very great force In their city itself.
Seattle has one company which has de-
veloped 10000 horsepower from the sno-
quaimie river, and the city water works,
which are connected with the Cedar river,
furnish some thousands OF horsepower.

nous water powers yet to be used in Ore
gon, Idaho and California. In such matters
the west is far more daring than the east,
and the electrical energy of many OF the
falls is already carried long distances. Spo-
kane is sending power to the Occur dAlene
mines, 100 miles away. The Seattle street
cars are run by plant on the Puyallup
river, forty miles of, and the same is true
OF the trolley to Tacoma. Indeed, it is es-
timated that at least 100000 horsepower
can easily be developed in every state of
the northwest, and as 1t is now many OF
the mills and factories are being run by
electricity more cheaply than would be pos
sible by steam California has a big asset
in its electric power possibilities About
200, 900 horsepower or more have been al
ready generated there. This comes mostly
from mountain streams, some Of the power
being carried several hundred miles Oak

The ships of other ports have been greatly
enlarged and San Francisco has steamers
which compare favorably with the levia-
thans of the Great Northern. The Pacific
Mail added the Siberia and the Korea
to its ships in 1901, and the Mongolia and
Manchuria in 1904, These ply between San
Francisco and Yokohama, Shanghai and
Hongkong The Boston Steamship com
pany has FIVE steamers running between
Seattle and Tacoma and the oriental ports
and a German steamship line known as the
Portland and Asiatic has monthly vessels
from Portland to the Orient. The Nippon
Yusen Kalsha, which might be called the
japanese steamship trust, run regular
steamers between Seattle and Yokohama,
and the Nippon Kishin Kaisha has three
vessels which are running regularly from
Yokohama TO San Francisco. There is also
tho Occidental and Oriental companies
plying between San Francisco and China
and Japan under the British flag, and a
large number of tramp steamers which call
rregularly at the various ports. The
Spreckes line connects the United States
with Hawaii, Samoa, New Zealand and
Australia, and also with the Society Islands,
so that now almost every part of the Pa
cihc has direct connection with us. In
addition to this is the great Alaska trade,
and the coastal vessels which are doing
a business of mammoth proportions.

Railroad Freight. a. a Tariff.

As It is now most OF the goods which
go from here to the orient are made in
the east. The Minnesota on its second
voyage to the orient carried seventy loco
motives and other rolling stock for the
railroads Of Japan, which were hauled
across the Rockies The locomotives were
built in Philadelphia. There were also 10000
kegs of wire nails and hundreds Of thou
sands OF dollars worth of hardware ma
chinery and other products, all made east
of the Mississippi valley. The west has
iron. coal and wood in addition 10 these
mighty water powers, and there is no rea-
son why it should not furnish such ex-
ports.
AS IL is now, It Is competing with the
east at a profit; and as to many things
the heavy railroad frelghts act like a pro-
tectiye tariff in its favor. The freight
upon iron and steel from the mills OF the
east to the Pacific coast is 81 per ton
and more, and II is said that the freight
paid on the iron and steel used on this
side Of the Rockies amounts TO more than
100000 a year
There is a probability that the northwest
