EXCESSIVE LUMBER RATES.
Sound SChOoncrs New Charge $3.50
Per 1000 Feet.


OF the eXorbitant freight rate
charged by coast schooners on lumber
shipments from the sound southwark
the Seattle News of Tuesday says:
Lumber rates today reached the
highest point in the history of Puget
sound. Owners of steam schooners
which carry lumber from Puget
$3.50 per 1000 feet.
j.. Ii. Gray, of the L. II. Gray
Steamship company, who is an extern
siye operator of lumber carriers, today
stated that he fully expects to see the
rate advanced to between SO and $40.
There are 30 steam schooners in the
lumber trade on Puget sound at pres
ent and all the craft are taxed to full
est capacity to handle the trade.
The abnormal increase Is due to
several causes. All the schooners
have advanced wages during the pres
ent season. Extra men have been
added to the crews. Sailors have re-
ceived an advance of 10 per cent, and
engineers have been raised 20 per
cent.
Formerly 1t was possible for schoon-
ers to charge the low rate of 1915
per 1000 feet and make money but 1t
Is doubtful II, under present condi-
tions, charge of SIS per 1000 feet
would enable owners to continue in
the trade at a profit. Increased ex-
pcnses and the scarcity of bottoms
have raised the rate to the highest
point and at present there is no indi-
cation of a decrease.

While no woman is entlreIy free from
periodical suffering, it does not seem to
be the plan of nature that women
should suffer so severely. This is a
severe strain on a woman's vitality.
When pain exists something is wrong
which should be set right or it will
lead to serious arrangement of the
whole female organism.
Thousands of women have testified
in grateful letters to Mrs. Pinkham
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound overcomes woman's special
pains and irregularities.
1t provides a safe and sure way of
escape from distressing and dangerous
weaknesses and diseases.
The two following letters tell so con-
vincingly what Lydia E. Pinkham's S
Vegetable Compound will do for
women, they cannot fail to bring hope
to thousands of sufferers.
Miss Nellie Holmes, of $40 N. Division
Street, Buffalo, N. Y, writes:
Dear Mrs Pinkham:-

Henry Broderick, a well known
Seattle business man, has just re-
turned from an extended visit to the
eastern states and OF conditions there,
he speaks In the following entertain
ing way:
Factories and great Industrial plants
are working to their full capacity.
Some of them are overburdened with
orders. visited Baldwin's locomotive
works which employ $4,000 men;
Cramps shipyard, on the Delaware,
where 5000 men are at work; the
Western Electric company's works,
which have $4,000 men on the pay
roll, and those of the Westinghouse
company In Pittsburg--the greatest in
the United States-in which there are
100000 men at It's many works, and
earns s3S, 200, 900 net in the last quar-
ter.
New York Leads.
In finance New York now leads the
world by its dash, enterprise and con-
troll of capital at home and abroad.
There is a great deal of wealth in
London, but It is inactive compared
with New York, where the weekly
clearings exceed regularly two billions.
The influx OF gold has been great this
year. about $4,000. 900 having come
from Europe up to a recent date.
New York looms up as an active
factor in London, Paris and Berlin, by
reason of the amount of American
money now retained in Europe for use
when needed. An American bank
with s6.25O,0OO capital has just been
founded In Berlin. Our country's
credit stands at the highest notch.
Coming Westward.
Despite this prosperity. under
which labor is well pal1 the Ameri-
can spirit OF adventure is strong, and
there Is much inquiry about Seattle.
It has. as a Kansas paper says, taken
the place once held by San Francisco
in the public mind. 1t Is looked to
as the place where men make for
tunes or recruit those which they
have lost. These people are coming
westward with generally fair amount
OF money. and II will aid considera-
bly, in building up our city and state.
California Competing.
Our city, continued Mr.. Broderick,
is not doing enough advertising in
the east and middle west. You see
everywhere placards of the California
promotion committee who are bidding
homeseekers with much earnestness.
Prior to the earthquake of April,
California was not doing much to at
tract settlers. but not san Francisco
and other cities are striving to fill up
the ranks; SO to speak. Seattle need
not use as much paid advertising in
the east as other cities, but strenu-
Gus efforts should be made to keep
the city under the notice of desirable
people from the skilled workman to
the manufacturer and investor.
As regards Alaska. l found the peo-
pie We're much better informed about
that territory than the public were
formerly. This is due in part to pop
ular novels, such as the Spoilers"
aud to the American press. / heard
that n leading theatrical manager pre-
diets that the scene of the next great
drama will be laid in Alaska.

Good Rain at Yakima.

A soaking rain fell in Yakima Sat
urday night and laid the dust. 1t
was the first rain since June that has
amounted to anything. Tne rain was
badly needed all over central and
eastern Washington, not only to lay
the dust but to start the fall sown
wheat to growing. A strong wind
blew here Sunday after the rain and

APPLES IN TASMANIA.
Southern Island is Rapidly Becoming
an Apple Country.

The export of apples from Tasma-
MIA to Great Britain was 29S, 900 cases
in the fiscal year 1908, $4,000 in
1904, S66,64i in 1905, and 261,664 in
1906, according to consular reports.
This last seasons decrease was due
to an unprecedented crop failure, and
the shipments were valued at S1.46
to $40 per case (cubical contents
equaling 22S7 inches) on the Hobart
wharf.

as it would appear that almost any

With such an easy victory for the re-
pubicans ahead, why, he asked should
not somebody else be given a chance.
When asked what he though of the
criticisms by democrats Of his idea Of
federal ownership of railroads, Mr..
Bryan said that he had never advocat-
ed anything that was not opposed in
some quarters. He was told that some
of the southern democrats seemed
alarmed lest the jim crow cars should
be eliminated by the adoption OF his
ideas Of federal ownership.
Mr.. Bryan, in reply to this, said that
if the various states owned the lines
within their borders, the lical laws
would continue 10 be offered. He was
asked if he meant that negroes and
whites would be separated if the state
had jim crow law, TO which he re-
piled that the state laws would natur-
ally hold good in local lines. He did
not care at this time to discuss the
details Of how the plan would affect

the through lines under federal CON
troll.
