Collector Harper Here
On Official Business

Hon. F. G. Harper. collector OF
customs for the district OF Puget
Sound. one of the largest in the
United States. territorially and IL
volume of business Transacted. was I'D
town short time Wednesday and
again Thursday morning. having come
over from Port Townsend for brief
visit with his deputies in this county.
especially his brother at Roche Har.
Dor. It was his first visit here for
considerably more than year. No
man in public life in the state has
more friends in this county than Col
lector Harper. He was in the mer-
cantile business at East Sound for q
number of years and was the county e
first representative in the state senate.
when San Juan and Skagit counties
constituted one senatorial district.
His home at that time, now occupied
by l.. @. Rudow, is shown in the East
Sound illustration in this paper.
Mr.. Harper says that the growth Of
customs business in this district dur
ing the past few years has been enor-
nous. For the year 1900 the total
collections were only 1867. 600. The
collections for the district for the last
calendar year we're 81, 8O4, 692, a gain
of over 500 per cent in the annual
collections during the first seven years
Of the present decade. IN the month
Of December last. when 4. great deal
was being said about financial panic
and closing of the mills. the exports
Of the district were Sc. 882. 600. the
largest of any month in the history Of
the district. OF this over 81. 600. 600
was breadstuffs. Puget Sound is now
the third port of the United States
in wheat expectations, New York aud
Baltimore being respectively first
and second. In breadstnffs it is
fourth, New York. Baltimore and
Philadelphia leading in the order
named. In the December exporta-
tions Of breadstuffs the Puget Sound
district excelled San Francisco and
Portland combined.

The Telephones Of
the World in 1907

An estimate made on January 1.
1907, and just published in the
Scientific American. shows the follow
ing numbers and distributions OF tele-
phones in the world:
United States. 5,068. 800. or SO. 5
per cent
Canada 100. 900, or z per cent
Europe 1000. 900. OFT. per cent
Other parts of the world 100000, OF
! 81 per cent
Total 1898. 500
These totals are Of necessity APP
proximate, for it is very difficult to
get figures from distant parts of the
world. In countries also where the
telephone service is under government
management the returns are apt TO be
particularly delayed 1h the giving
sout.
From available statistics. the Bell
companies of the United States rain
ed 119 per cent in the number OF
their subscribers from the year 1908
until 1907. independent companies
in the Middle West. their stronghold.
gained approximately s11O per cent
during the same period. Supposlne
that their expansion In other fields
was at the same rate, the number Of
ssindependent'' stationsaat the. be-
ginning OF the present year shtuld
have been between 1900, 900 rand

In Europe, the number of Telephone
subscribers doubles once in everx. six
or seven. years, Considerably slower
rate srhan that in this country. How
ever. it shows that the telephone is
increasing in popularity on the cOn
tinent with reasonable rapidly.
