ERNoR, STATEMENTS OF REV.
VAN HORN.

OLYMPIA, Feb. 24.-State Prison
Warden Reed has written a letter to
Governor Mead in which he refutes
the statement made by Rev Van Horn,
| of Seattle, that the convicts at the
state penitentiary are lily clad and are
lin a freezing condition. as related by
!the minister last Sunday before his
congregation.
I'm regard to the convict's clothing"
says Warden Reed, Il have no hesita-
ton on saying that the convicts here
lin Washington state penitentiary are
as we'll clothed as convicts in any peni-
|tentiary in the United States. There
is not q man who works outside that is
not furnished with warm underwear.
Including a heavy suit and coat. The
men that work inside, the building and
in rooms that are heated. are not fur
nished with underclothing by the
state.
1.-The Sunday that DR.. Van Horn held
services here" continues the letter to
the governor, "was raw and chilly. but
IL saw no evidence of suffering. nor have
II heard any complaints about INSULT
lcient clothing The men are not allowed
1.-TWO hours daily in the yard, but in
stead they are given two hours on
Sunday morning. The statement made
Iby Rev. Van Horn regarding INSULT
lcientsclothing is absolutely untrue and
without foundation"

MANUFACTURE OF sPooLs.
Business Confined to New England and
| Requires Much Timber.

Small things are not to be overlook
ed in considering the problems of the
future timber supply. The match
maker is having as much trouble In
getting the grade of wood necessary
for his business as the dealer In tel
egraph poles.
One of the industries which deals
with small things, yet. which is one
of the utmost importance to the coun-
trys commerce, is the manufacture
and export of spool wood. This bus
mess is peculiar to the New England
states, and is centered in Maine.
Spool factories of this state are now
turning out eight hundred million
spools annually, with market value
Of nearly $1,000,000.
The best quality of timber is used
for the manufacture of spools. White
birch, which is used almost exclu-
sively for this industry, reaches the
factory in the form Of bars from to
3 GIG inches square and from q to
feet long. These bars must be alb
solutely clear. The birch is cut in
winter and sawed in small portable
mills which operate near some rail-
road line. about 2 1-3 cords being re-
quired for 1000 feet of bars. After
saving, the bars are piled crisS-croSs,
in order to facilitate thorough season.
ing. and protected from the weather,
are allowed to season until June. The
spool bar mills in Maine turn out
about fifteen million feet of bars
during the year and approximately the
same amount of material is manufac-
tured into spools in the state.
The machines for making SpnoiS
are complicated and require skilled
men for their operation. The SponlS
drop from the lathe at the rate If
one per second and must be perfecriy

are marketed in this country largely
