encouraging the settlement of lands

value of a. steady labor supply from

"This way, l think, is the road for

of the land with the securing of steady

GOOD RULES
FOR CONTEST

The attention of the owners of au-
endurance run which will be held next
Saturday. The rule which has been
made against racing by the commit
tee in charge of the contest, will meet
with the approval of all. Racing is
strictly forbidden and not only will
anyone caught in the act of violating
the rule be disqualified, but he viii be
disbarred from all competitions which
may be held in the city at any future
date.
Tomorrow will be the last day on
which entries can be made and while
the list is now larger than was expect
ed, it is hoped that more viii come in
and make the event still better. The
cars will be started far enough apart
to keep them from punching and in
each machine will be an observer, who
will keep a record of every stop made.
The time limits have been carefully
arranged so that fair rate of speed
must be kept up but no very fast
driving will be allowed or be needed.
Between this city and Kahuku the run
must be made in less than three and
a quarter hours and in over two hours
and a haaf. From that point TO Hale
iva the cars are allowed an hour and
a half, but must not go so fast that
they will reach Waialua in less than,
an hour A stop of at least an hour
for lunch will be made at IIaleiwa and
then the return trip will begin. The
cars will be allowed two hours and
a quarter to reach this city and must
not arrive in less than an hour and
a half.
From this it will be seen that rea-
sonable rate of speed must be main
tanned, but that no very fast driving
will be tolerated. Under such condi-
lions, with good weather, the run
ought to be great success. The Ha-
Ieiwa hotel will be prepared for its
guests and lunch will be served in the
tasteful manner which Manager Bid
good has made a reputation for. This
will be the only stop allowed with the
exception of that at Kahuku, where
the cars may remain for half an hour
if they see fit.

stands second to none, having the
only steam hammer on the harbOr.
Employment Is given to twenty-five
skilled and experienced wOrkmen and
each branch of the business is oper-

A feature of their productions which
we desire to call special attention to
is that of the sectional CRATE bar
manufactured by this concern, and
which they are a patentee of. This
bar has already gained wide repu-
durability. and the demand is be-
coming SO great, that they are forced
to make extraordinary preparations
for the manufacture of these bars,
and the time is not far distant when
.Hoquiam will be known all over the
world as the home of the Sectional
Crate Bar. Mr.. j. A. Stein, the
executive head of this enterprise is
an energetic and public spirited bust
ness man, and under his able manage
ment the Grays HarbOr Iron and Steel

Mirror Steam Laundry.

The citizens of HoQuiam are to be
congratulated upon having such a
modern institution as that of the
Mirror Steam Laundry, which is the
leading enterprise of its kind in the
city. No. town in the northwest, the
size of Hoquiam. has a laundry that
can equal this one in equipment,
superiority of work or in any other
respect.
The equipment of the plant COM
prises the latest practical machinery
known to the laundry business. while
the service rendered is of the highest
character and despite the superiority
of the work, the lowest prices pre-
vail Employment is given to twenty
five people and two wagons are kept
busy delivering and collecting laun-
dry throughout the city.
Not only is the work of this con-
Germ confined to Hoquiam but they
have established agencies in many of
the smaller towns throughout the
surrounding country. BY constant
application of strict business meth
DDS, accurate, honest and courteous
treatment, together with the superior
work and moderate prices the Mirror
Steam Laundry has established an
ever-increasing business which they
fully merit. "ScrupulOus cleanliness
is the policy of Mr.. w. A. Connell, the
manager, and under his supervision
this institution will continue to grow
and be the leading laundry of Ho-
quiam.

progress of Chehalis county, is that
of the Hoquiam Lumber and Single
company. This company bears the
proud distinction of operating the
largest single mill in the world, the
plant having a capacity of 100000
shingles per day. Their saw mill
has an output of 100000 feet of lum-
Der day, and like that of their
single mill, is equipped with every
modern facility for the operation of
the business.
During 1907 this company loaded
105 vessels and cut 6S,627,99S feet
of lumber. The number of cars
shipped by them was 1853, while the
output of shingles amounted to no.
$4,000. The weight of these figures
together with the fact that they give
employment to over 800 people, is a
testifying demonstration as to mag
nitude of their operations.
The officers of the company con-
sist of r. F. Lyle. president and
manager; Joseph Lyle, vice presi-
dent; and l.. II. Brewer, secretary.
The plant is under the supervision of
Mr.. A. II. Kuhn, whose desire it is
to see Hoquiam become large city,

bringing about these conditions.

GUAM, which has a combined capital
and surplus of 100000 is one of the
strongest financial institutions in
the northwest, and is among the most
eloquent witnesses of the stability
and progress of the city and Grays
HarbOr country. The bank transacts
general banking business in each
OF its departments, handling deposits,
loans, discounts and exchange, and
sOlicits the accounts of individuals
and corporations The operations of the
institution are public spirited, pro-
gressive and enterprising, and it has
by this virtue became potent fac
tor in the progress of this vicinity.
The bank is elegantly quartered
and the apartments are fitted up with
every convenience required to operate
a modern bank upon the most i'm
proved plans. In the management of
this great financial concern, Presi-
dent Adams has the aid of as good a
corps of bank employees as ever
stepped behind counter They are
all courteous and obliging to an I'M
usual degree. The officers of the
bank consist of w. L. Adams, presi-
dent; A. G. Rockwell, cashier; and
Angus Campbell, assistant cashier.
The executive skill and judgment of
Mr.. Adams in the management of
financial institutions is conceded to
be above the average, a fact which
was proven when he was elected
president of the Washington Bank
ers' association, at their last meeting
held at North Yakima.

tude of their operations is well illus
trated by the fact that they own and
operate their own vessels, all of
which are modern and equipped for
large capacity. They also own
large tracts of timber which insures
the operation of their plant for many
years to come.
The E. X. Wood Lumber company
gives employment to $50 men, and
their average pay roll amounts to
nearly $4,000 month. During
1907, this company loaded 50 vessels
and shipped by same, 30,155,641 feet
of lumber. In addition to this their
car shipments and local sales amount
ed to 6,263,644 feet.
Besides the Hoquiam mill this COM
pany also operates another large
plant at Bellingham, where their OPP
erations are highly appreciated by
the citizens of that city. The Off
GERS of the company consist Os f.

secretary and treasurer. The Ho-
quiam plant is under the manage

of vast experience in the lumber bust
ness. He is public spirited man
and is always ready to give financial
