TACOMA MAY
YET GET
PORT

Tacoma not only wants the port
of entry il it is TO be changed
from Port Townsend, as "a matter
of justice and economy for the
government, but also she wants
the Chinese detention station re-
moved from Seattle to this city.
Frank Ross, who has inaugur-
ated the fight for recognition of
Tacoma by Uncle Sam and who is
making the government sit up and
take notice, today sent another
telegram to Secretary MacVeagn
insisting that the Chinese deten-
ton station be brought here.
Ross last night sent a telegram
to MacVeagh calling attention to
the fact that Tacoma's commerce
far exceeds that of Seattle and
if any port of entry shift Is TO
be made the logical place is this
city.
The activity of Ross has
brought the Commercial club in
to line also and it got in touch
with Senator Jones yesterday.
Jones wired back that the admin
istration will give due considera-
ton to all phases of the case.
The great advantage to come
to Tacoma by having the port of
entry here and the detention sta
ton as well would be the adver-
tisement it would get all over the
world and the making of this
city practically headquarters for
all maritime business in the
Northwest.
