Wray finally succeeded in having it
re-referred to the judiciary commit
tee for amendment.
All this happened Wednesday, and
Thursday morning again the members
of the House called each other few
more pet names during the debate on
the two bills permitting alien owner
ship of land in this state, finally adopt
ing the Hughes bill, which permits
all aliens admissible to citizenship to
own land in Washington, thereby eli
minating the Chinese and Japanese
The argument is advanced that this
bill will stimulate the development OF
the state by attracting foreign inves
tors, though this argument gave its
opponents considerable attack in the
form of the absentee landlordism' OF
Ireland These, however, failed tc
carry weight with the majority Of the
members of the House.
What share Southwestern Washing
ton will get of the $1,500,000 appro
priated for the state highway fund
in the bill that passed the House Fri
day morning, depends entirely upon
the vigilance of it's representatives
With the 100000 now in the treas
ury to the credit of this fund, there
will be $2,OOO,O00 for good roads il
Washington during the next two
years. This bill, however, was passed
with the distinct, though sub-rosa, un
derstanding among the members OF the
House that 100000 would be appro
priated for the construction OF the
Snoqualmie Pass highway so dear te
the residents of Seattle. So large al
appropriation as that for one project
does not leave very much for the RESI-
of the counties of the state.

GETS 'TlDELAND
Bill Passes House, Granting
GO Acres to Port of
Crays Harbor

Through the efforts of Representa-
tives Mapes, Mckay and Craig, OF
! this county, House Bill No. 249
granting 6S acres of tide lands to the
Port of Grays Harbor for port pur-
poses passed the House on Friday.
1t will now go to the senate and
there Is scarcely doubt of favorable
action by that body.
This bill is of great Importance
to the people of Grays Harbor. The
land lies between the two cities and
is admirably adapted to port pur-
poses. The state has received an Of
fer of large sum for this land, so
the gift to Grays Harbor is of value
and one which will be highly appre-
ciated by the people here.
Frank B. Lamb, president of the
port commission, and President Mou
rant of the HOquiam Commercial
Club as we'll as the committee of the
Aberdeen Chamber of Commerce, lent
their aid in the passage of this bill
and are to be congratulated on the
success which has thus far attended
their efforts.
The bill contains a clause that in
the event of the land being used for
other than port purposes it shall re-
vert to the state, but there is no

Will Enter Halibut Field
With Three Vessels

That Grays Harbor boats will be

nounced that the trim little sealing
schooner leila May, which was pur-
chased last year by the company and
which has been thoroughly over

the building of two and possibly
three other schooners which will,
when completed, join the Seattle
fleet.
The leila May, which will be re-
christened the s. E. r. No. 1, has
been equipped with a 10Ohorsepow-
err Gordon engine and will sail from
Aberdeen to Seattle the latter part
OF the week. The other two vessels
Will be built in Aberdeen and will
also be equipped with 100-horsepower
engines OF the same make.
The leila May was formerly a

ASKS LISTERS TO
DELAY ACTION
Secretary Knox Requests Hold
Up of Alien Land Bill
Passed by House

OLYMPIA, Feb. S.-Governor Lis
ter today received a telegram from
Secretary of State Knox asking him
to use his influence to delay further
consider of the alien ownership bill
until the department of state can eX-
anime the bills in the light of treaty
obligations.
The telegram reads.
''The department of state has just
received copies Of bills pending in
the Washington legislature dealing
with rights of aliens in the state of
Washington. 1t is understood that
one of these, the Hughes bill, has
already passed the house by a large
majority and l trust you will be good
enough to delay, if necessary, it's fur
Their consideration, until the depart
ment of state has opportunity to ex-
anime the bill in the light of our
treaty obligations and national in
terests."
Might Offend OrientaIs
The Hughes bill submits to the
voters proposed amendment to the
constitution permitting ownership of
lands in this state by aliens who are
eligible to citizenship.
During the discussion of the bill it
was pointed out that it would give
grave offense to China and Japan,
whose citizens are excluded from the
privileges conferred by the bill.
The bill passed the house Thurs
day by vote of 20 to %.

destroyed three Single lIilns and dam
aged beyond repair a large lumber
kiln Thursday. The loss, it is esti
mated, will reach $4,000. The loss
was we'll covered by insurance.
Shortly before ~ o'clock the first
alarm was turned in Workmen near
the kiln noticed smoke coming from
the top of the building. Famed by
a strong east wind the flames spread
rapidly, eating through the kiln $
west side and entering a second
building Both kilns were well
stocked with shingles. Firemen work.
ed heroically, but all efforts were di-
rected to saving the mill.
Three million shingles were in the
kilns when the fire broke out and
but few bundles were saved The
shingles destroyed were valued at
$1,000. The kilns, docks, and lumber
burned will bring the total loss, it
is estimated, to $4,000.
Until late yesterday afternoon the
fire fighters worked on the burning
kilns, although it was apparent early
in the day that the single kilns
would be destroyed. The winds re-
manned strong from the east and
southeast and at no time during the
afternoon was the mill property in
danger
"The loss will reach at least $12.-
900 and ! consider this amount q
conservative estimate said Alex Pol
son., one of the heavy stockholders
of the company. last night. 1--WE are
now adjusting the insurance and !
do not know the exact amount placed
on the destroyed property. The kilns
will be rebuilt at once. The mill
will continue operations as hereto
fore, as storage for shingles turned
out will be secured"
A contract was awarded Saturday
night to the West Coast Dry Kiln
Company of Seattle for the construc-
ton of two new fireproof kilns for
the Eureka Cedar Lumber & Single
Company's plant. The cost of the new
kilns was not made known. The kilns
will be 120X20 feet.

THE CROP MARKETS
Grain Markets Show Declines
Coffee Active and Lower.

The wheat market yesterday was unset
tied and rather feverish. but price changes
were small. Shorts were nervous over dis
quieting news from the seat OF war in the
Balkans, but weather conditions in the
Northwest we're not of a character 10
cause any alarm over immediate damage
TO the winter wheat crop. Late in the
day an increase Of selling pressure weak
ened the market and the close was easy
at net unchanged to &c lower. Corn
prices advanced In the early trading, but
profit taking by longs caused an easier
tone, leading to final net loss Of Is to i4c
for the day. Oats, through sympathy with
the earlier markets, lost an early steadi-
ness and closed unchanged to sc down
from Thursdays finish.
Heavy selling of coffee futures, at
tributed to foreign account, drove prices
downward all day with shorts making
occasional rallies, which were not suf-
ficient to more than temporarily stem the
downward trend Of prices. An easy OPEN
ing at Il to Il points decline was fol-
lowed by drops which carried the market
TO a loss of 40 TO 43 points from the high
of Monday. All the foreign markets were
easier, which backed up the belief that the
selling here was largely for foreign ac-
count but the trading was mostly specu-
latiye. The close was at a net loss for
the day OF % to 20 points for futures and
the spot market lost &c on Rio Is.

unsettled feeling due to reports OF a
