Huerta's Point Answered.

Huerta's statement that the tense
ness of diplomatic relations" was
with the Government of the United
States, although luckily not with tina
people" invoked little attention. as
the same sentiment had been pre-
viously voiced by the Mexico City of
dcials and the answer from here was
the enthusiastic reception which
President Wilson received when he
addressed Congress and the speeches
supporting him made by Republicans
and Democrats in Congress.
The references to the expiration OF
the period during which American
warships were authorized to remain
in Mexican waters caused some dis
cus5ion. lnasmuch as the ships are
permitted to remain another month,
or until after the general elections are
heid. no statement Of policy in this
connection is nkeIy to be made until

Every Respect

The new steel steam schooner Aro-
line arrived from San Francisco,
Tuesday, Captain Sears in command,
on her maiden trip, and will sail to-
day on her return, with 100000 feet

last word in steam schooner construc-
ton, in point of speed, economic hand
ling and comfort. She has splendid
accommodations for 60 passengers
and is handsomely fitted up.
She is equipped with four steam
winches, with 70-foot booms on her
steel masts, and can be loaded to her
lumber capacity, 100000 feet, in 1S
hours. The Aroline is owned by Sud
den & Christensen of San Francisco,

ASSESS FRANCHISES
Public Service Franchises Are Placed
on Assessment Rolls this Year
for First Time

MONTESANO, July 10.-Public
servivce franchises are listed with the
assets of corporations for assessment
purposes this year for the first time.
This is done on the advice of the
state tax commission. and the as
SCISSORS Office has been diligently
looking up the value Of the fran
chises-a thing rather difficult to get
at.
Another important ruling has been
secured from the state. Some cor
porations have refused to segregate
their holdings in the various tax dis
tricts and in fact leave the assess
sor to find out as much or as little
as he can. On the advice of the CON-
mission, Mr.. Wiley's force Is putting
the whole of such companies hold
ings into the districts where the levy
is the highest.
The assessors force has nearly fin
ished the segregation of property and
will be all ready for the board OF
equalization before that body meets.

CREW OF men GO
TO OIL FIELDS
Party Leaves for the Hob
River, to Prepare for the
Coming Machinery

Tug Standard, carrying a party of
eight workmen headed by Capt.
Charles Hansen, left Hoquiam Tues
day for the Hob river. The tug in
addition carried equipment necessary
to prepare for landing oil drilling ma
chinery at the mouth of the river near
the field to be prospected by the JEFF
ferson Oil company.
The equipment consists of buoy,
cables an danchors to anchor it out
side the surf, and surf lines to reach
into the beach. The buoy will be set
and anchored at once and will be used
as a mooring for the scows used in
getting the drilling machinery ashore.
According to the Jefferson Oil COM
pany the drilling outfit is expected to
arrive from the East by any train.
AS soon as it is here work of getting
it on the ground will be rushed and
drilling should begin by August /, it
is believed.

All wars fought between labor and

cure legislation, and the tangled
:skein woven about their relations in
the last ten years will be invevsti-

committee decided at an executive

Samuel Gompers, president of the

subpoenaed George Pope and J. P.

Deputy Assessor Girard Asks for Re
ductiion of Rates Between Mon.

MONTESANO, July 10.-A. c. Cir
ard has asked the public service com
mission to reduce the rate of service
for telephoning from Montesano tc
Aberdeen and Hoquiam from 25 cents
to 10 cents.
Mr.. Girard has given out the fol
lowing interview regarding the mat
ter:
"There is probably more business
done over the wire between Hoquiam
and Aberdeen and Montesano thar
between any other two communities
in the state, and yet the rate is held
at the highest possible rate. There
are several places in the state where
the rates are lower for just as good
or better service. At one place in
particular-in Whatcom county-yor
can talk all over the county from the
county seat, Bellingham, on 10-cen'
rate.
81 believe the telephone lines be
tween the Harbor cities and Monte
sano would pay a good profit at 6
10-cent rate"
