NORTHWEST NEWS NOTES.
PayrolIs Needed-ColIier's Attack on
Ballinger-Tarifl Matters.

SEATTLE-It is predicted that
1910 will witness the establishment
of more new manufacturing enter
prises in the Northwest than ever
before All cities and towns realize
that they need payrolls, to increase
their well-being. Many of them are
planningactive campaigns to get new
factories. In the Middle West and
Eastern states there are many enter
prises ready to cometo the North
west if the matter is properly pre-
sented to them. The Seattle Cham
Der of commerce has a $4,000 site,
which will be given to the first per-
son or company that invests SIS, 900
in building and equipping a factory.
The property is in the corporate
limits of Seattle, and in touch with
water and rail transportation. The
town of Kelso on the Columbia river
is also offering free oites. Everett
holds out generous offers, as do many
other localities, so that many new
factories should spring up in this
part of the country before long.
Senator Piles announcement that
he viii not be ac andidate for re-
election and that he will support
Judge Thomas Burke to succeed him,
was foreshadowed in thi scorrespon-
dence last week. and caused no sur
prise, although some had believed
that the withdrawal would not be
announced until the Christmas recess
of Congress. This puts Judge
Burke squarely before the people as
an active candidate. Representa-
tive Poindexter of Spokane. recently
spent several days on this side of the
mountains. He met a number of
friends and was informally enter
tanned. He is frankly confident of
his ability to line up all the elements
favoring the insurgent movement in
Congress, and is preparing for a
lively fight for the senatorial toga
all over the state. 1t is not likely
that any formal announcement will
be received from John l.. Wilson
until his return to Seattle next May,
but no one doubts that he win be
candidate.

James A. Wood, writing in the
December isse of Pacific Northwest
Commerce, the official publication Of
the Seattle Chamber of Commerce,
on Secretary Ballinger and the
Fight Against Him" points out some
of the mistakes which have been
made by those attacking President
Taft's cabinet adviser. Regret is ex-
pressed that Golfers Weekly has
not seen fit to present the facts in
the case, which needs no defense.
when viewed from an impartial
standpoint Mr. Woods article ex-
hibits a splendid spirit. in that it
lacks the vindictiveenss that has
characterized all of the assaults on
Secretary Balinger. In this, it is
far more convincing than anything
that has been written on either side
side of the so-called Balinger-Pinchot
controversy.
