1,619 Accidents Reported During May

The state industrial insurance
commission has issued its regular
monthly statement covering the
month of May. 1t shows that dur
ing that month 1.619 accidents were
reported and LILO cases disposed Of.
Of the number reported, thirty-two
were fatalities and three perma
nent total disabilities. More cases
have been disposed of in some pre-
vious months than during the past
month, the small number this time
being due to some extent at least to
the fact that commission was disor-
ganized. owing to new appoint
ments.
The report also shows that since
the establishment of the commission
in the fall of 1911, 22,273 accidents
have been reported and claims en-
tered. Of this number consider
ably more than 10000 have been
disposed of either by awards or re-
lection. There are now pending
before the commission. including
those cases not yet officially placed
on the files, 1862 cases.

Fined For Selling Booze To Indians


Jack Grady, a transient citizen
of Bellingbam, who had planned to
supply the indians of Lummi island
with spurious whisky made of COL
ored alcohol and water, drew a fine
Of $100 and costs wnen he appeared
before Police Judge Featherkile.
When arrested Grady was carrying
a suit case containing six quarts of
pure alcohol, a pint of coloring flu
i'd and a quantity of empty bottles
and TASKS. These were his stock
in-trade, md that he was not max
ing his first venture in the illicit
traffic was evidenced by the fact
that he had a full bottle of the vile
concoction already made up before
his arrest. From the six quar- is of
alcohol Grady said he would have
made twenty quarts of his imita-
tion whisky, selling the spirits at
the rate of over 81 per pint.

Minimum Wage for Ministers

Probably no part Of the commun-
ity has suffered more from the in
creased cost of living than the cler-
gy. Every now and then a clergy
man or layman speaks his mind
bluntly upon the question Of the
minister's wage, reminding us that
it has not risen to meet the advanc-
ed demands of the day. If he hap
pens to be minister, he is almost
invariably a well-paid one, SO that
no charge of self-interest can be
brought against him. He appears
simply as an advocate for the coun-
try parson, whose income is made
quate to support him decently even
at his best, much less to provide
him with living in his old age.
Every time the subject is broached
it receives respectful and even
sympathetic hearing. but little is
come about it.
1t is encouraging, therefore. to
hear that when the annual conven-
ton of the New Jersey diocese of
the Protestant Episcopal church
was held at Atlantic City recently.
canon was adopted providing that
married ministers in new parishes
should receive $1,000 a year and un-
married ones 81, 900.
This minimum wage" is certain
ly not excessive, for. according to
figures just issued by the govern
ment, the purchasing power OF
$1,000 is no greater today than that
of S693 only fifteen years ago. Just
how the country parson manages to
keep up the position he does, pur-
chase books and magazines, rear a
family according to his standard OF
education and still lay up anything
for a rainy day is mystery to the
onlooker. Probably it remains an
unsolved mystery even to the min
lister. Society has been too much
inclined to. allow its cleraymen to
enjoy the luxury of serving for
spiritual rewards. holding that the
treasure thereby stored up in hea-
ven must be more than sufficient to
offset the lack of bodily comforts
and necessities needed here below

Trap Law Violated

Startling results are more tnan
likely to develop as the resule OF
the move on the part of State Fish
Commissioner L. H. Darwin to have
every salmon trap on Puget Sound
measured as to the depth OF water
in which it is paced and which was
announced week or two ago.
This work is being done under
the supervision of Deputy Jack Mil
let, assisted by a number OF depu-
ties and. while it is yet far from
complete. evidence has already been
secured such as to indicate that a
number of traps will have either to
be torn out or removed. The law
provides that no trap shall be placed
in water deeper than 62 feet at
mean low tide and already reports
have been made to the effect that
several traps have been located in
several feet more than that. In a
number of cases the limit has been
exceeded by only foot or so. In
these, it is believed that the traps
have been driven with no intent OF
violating the statute, while the
greater depth of water might be
explained by "banl ing" by wind.
tide variations or lumber OF 9th :
er causes.
Where it is evident that ali at
tempt has been made 10 fsh accord
mig to strict Interpretation of the
law and where the maximum depth
ha sheen exceeded only by foot or
so. it is not likely any action will be
taken. In cases, however, where
the depth las been exceeded by a
matter of several feet Fish Commits
sioner Darwin will insist that the
traps be either torn W altngeher or
moved back SO as to comply with
the requirements of the statute.
When it is remembered that these
traps cost all the way from 50 900
to $4,000 apiece and even more
than that. the seriousness of this vi
olation will be readily understood
PARTICULARLY in view of the fact that
this is the great sockeye year.
Before any action is taken the
traps which are believed to be fish
ing in too deep water will be meas
ued under every possible condition
to make certain of the violation.

Seek Extension Of townsend Line

Port Townsend's Commercial club
has issued an ugent appeal to the
business men of Portland to Coop
crate with them in getting the
Nor thern Pacific to build the 65
miles of line needed to give that
community railway connection with
the outside world. This appeal fol-
lowed the visit of the Port Town
send business men to this communi-
ty more than a year ago on the
same mission.
Rapid development of the Olym-
pic peninsula, the growing volume
of commerce there and the opportu-
ity Portland would have to ship to
Alaska without being held up in Sc
attic are arguments used.
The extension of this line, as de-
sired by the Port Townsend busi-
nessmen. would mean railroad con-
struction out of Olympia through
Shelton to the north. the only por-
tion of the Port Townsend Southern
now constructed being from Olym-
pia south to Tenino to connect with
the Portland banch of the Northern
Pacific and from Port Townsend to
Quilcene. Should the Northern Pa
cific complete the extension it
doubtless would mean a heavy
freight traffic through Olympia and
the work on the proposed extension
would very likely be followed by
construction work by the Milwau-
kee through Olympia peninsula, ac-
cording to the opinions of those
said to be close to developments in
railroad circles, to carry futher the
war instituted by the Milwaukee
for the development of the peninsu-
la by its construction work on its
northern end.

Cement Plant Site

ultimate fulfillment Of the oft
repeated assertion that Bellingham
is to be the cement center of the
Pacific coast is to be found in the
announcement, coming from well au-
thenticated sources. that a second
large Genet plant is to be ocated
adJac5nt to this city. 1t is pos
ltively stated by men in a position
to know that the Puget Sound Ce-
ment & Lime company. recently in
corporated and owning extensive
deposits of limestone and clay on
Orcas island. will begin the erection
OF plant to cost between 1,OOO.-
600 and 100000 at Chuckanut
bay. short distance south of Bel
lingham, at no very distant date.
Chuckanut bay presents a practi-
cally hand-locked harbor OF suffici-
ent depth to accommodate the larg-
est ships anchoring in Puget Sound.
1t is supplied with rail connections
by the Great Northern railroad and
the interurban, thus affOrding
shipping outlet for the finished pro-
duct of the plant by land as we'll as
by water. A comparatively small
expense, it is stated, good docking
facilities could be provided ade-
quae to the needs of the plant in
shipping its finished product. re-
ceivihg its raw material and un-
loading the oil supply needed in the
operation of the factory. .-Ameri-
