TOLMAN HAS ASPIRATIONS.
Spokane Man May Decide to Run for
Congress.

Warren w. Tolman of Spokane, for
Harold Preston the leadership of the
railroad commission fight in 1901, may
be a democratic candidate for con-
|gress, says the Spokane Chronicle.
There is little question that Tolman
would like to go to congress, states
Seattle report. He has had that am
bition in the past and the prospect of
shaping up federal statutes is as al
Turing as it ever was. But the question
of expediency now looms up and Toll
man is going to consider past election
performances and the prospects Of a
democratic victory this year before ne
tagrees to take up the democratic bur-
lden.
There has been some talk of nomi-
mating Charles S. Voorhees, of Spokane,
but Voorhees, will require great deal
of urging to get him into the fight.
William Goodyear. a Colfax newspaper
man. known to all the time demo-
Gratis, has also been urged. and there
is every prospect that if Tolman gets
into the congressional fight he will
have company enough to keep him in
ttereSted. East side democrats assert
that they have a fighting chance for
success and would have better than an
Ieven break if T. D. Rockwell procured

NEW WESTMINSTER. B. c., Feb.
"A sad incident occurred when the
three young daughters Of J. Israel were
burned in an awful manner by an ex-
plosion of dynamite. The elder of the
children, who are aged three years and
seventeen months respectively, are now
lying at st. Mary's hospital in this
,city. suffering terrible pain from their
injuries. and it is doubtful whether
they will recover, while the third.
baby in arms. of eight months. was
not so badly injured.
The father was engaged in thawing
blasting powder at the kitchen stove
when the accident occurred, and the
lchildren's hands, faces and arms were
painfully injured. The baby was some
protected by the cradle in which
she was lying. The house was also
partly wrecked and took fire, but the
father managed to extinguish the
flames before much was burned.

TACOMA HANDLES
MUCH WHEAT
SOUND CITY CLEARS 1900, 900
BUSHELS OF INLAND EN-
PiRE CROP.

| TACOMA, Feb 3.-Since the begin
ming of the fiscal grain year, Septem
Der 1, Tacoma has received lila, $50
bushels of wheat valued at approx
mately $S,S91,4S4. For this space of five
receipts has been over $1,250,000, a vast
amount of business of one kind to pass
through one part in that length of time.
These figures are given out by the
show the exact receipts at this port
for inspection since the beginning of
the year. The fiscal year begins with
the moving of the first of the new crop.
Never in the history of this port mas
the record been so large as this year.
The crop, as is we'll known, was un-
usually large and was harvested in
good condition for the most part.
The growers began to get it started
to market comparatively early and
nothing has hindered it's steady move
ment since. In the past difficulty has
arisen on account of lack of cars in
which to ship grain to tidewater, but
! this year the curtalment of eastern
lumber shipments gave the railroads a
large number of available cars, and the
wheat shippers have been supplied al
most as fast as calls were made. d.
Comparison With Last Year.
AS compared with the receipts for
the same period last year, the receipts
for this season show their real magni-
tude. From eptember l, 1906, to Feb
}ruary 1, 1907, the total for the five
months was 6,737.5OO bushels Or 6125
carloads. The general average of
prices was lower also last season. than
has been the case this season. One
thing which lowered the total receipts
last year was the tie-up of traffic on
account of the November, 1906, floods,
and the car shortage against which
lumbermen waged such a strenuous
fight also hindered the rapid move
ment.
The receipts for this season nave
amounted to 5000 cars. or a third more
than last year. December, the heaviest
month"; was the record breaker in the
history of the office. over 100000
bushels of wheat arriving.
