Light Season For
Mild Cure On Sound

Taken altogether the mild cure
pack Of Puget Sound has been light.
Although the over production in
Alaska, has to some extent affected
the market for the Sound product
packed on speculation. Most of the
pack is contracted for before the
season opens.
The San Juan Fishing and Pack
ing company. which this past spring
added storage facilities for 400 ad-
ditional tierces, has packed 1.10O
this season. The company did not
obtain many fish from the traps
this year but bought many from
the trollers. With the run light. it
was difficult to secure Springs. On
ly by covering a large area on the
sound was it possible to put up the
l LOO tierces. The fish we're OBJ
tanned from the San Juan Islands,
on the South Shore to the Straits
from Port Townsend out.
The Cholpeck Fish company pack
ed about 100 tierces of mild cured
Of which more than 800 tierces are
Reds.
The Everett Fish company did
not engage in mild curing to a
great extent this season. only put
ting up about 40 tierces.
The Eagers Fish company Of Ia
coma put up in the neighborhood
of 100 tierces. while E. A. Sims of
Port Townsend. packed 400 tierces.
which is larger than his pack Of
last year.
The Pacific American Fisheries
company at Bellingham packed 700
tierces. This is about 13O less
than their 1912 pack. John Elnmo
put uc 80 tierces and ]. Foss 60.
Taken altogether the Puget Sound
mild cure pack will not total $500
tierces this year.-Pacific Fisher

Judge Houser
Seeks Aid In Child
Welfare Work

Judge j. P. Houser, of the super
ior court. wants the cooperation OF
the churches and other organlza-
tions interested in child welfare.
He expressed the opinion that there
is room for the churches to be OF
real assistance in this matter.
"While not wishing to criticize
church and social workers it is my
belief that they COLD be # more
real service to mankind than they
are now it the way was pointed out
TO them." said Judge Houser. 1t
has been my experience that most
anyone can find a great deal OF
charitable work that ought to be
done at home if he will look for it.
II have two classes of children to
deal with. There is the delinq uent
class children who have been con-
victed of some wrong doing and are
on the highway to more serious
crimes and the Institutions main
tanned for their correction. lhe
second class is the dependent child
one who is not cared for by his pa
rents and who is allowed to drift
here and their without proper at
tentioD.
"For a time ] thought l had the
problem solved as to the proper dis
position of children under the care
Of this court pending their complete
and final disposition. Miss Eva
Davis opened her home as sort Of
detentiols house and she did noble
work until she was taken sick and
rendered unable to continue IT..
Since then I~have been at a loss to
know what to do with some Of the
children under my jurisdiction.
Il do not want to send these chill
dren to the state training school
when it is possible under the cir
:umstanc S. to do otherwise. The
training schools at best are more or
less If a penal character aud boys
and girls sent there come in contact
with a criminal element which has
anything but beneficial effect or
them.
'.Now, if / could obtain the CO.
operation of people who want to
help in these matters-people who
would care enough about the chill
dren to give them homes when they
are without them or to take them
for a time being and give them pro-
per attention. believe we cOulO
bring about a great deal of reform
alton without the aid of the institu-
uions maintained bv the state and /
am Of the opinion that the work
would be more complete and much
more satisfactory from every stand
point. Many of these children are
not what you would call bad. Ma
ny, having received no attention
and been allowed to wander the
streets at their will. have merely
strayed and can be handled ia such
a manner that they will become
good men and women and useful
citizens. Mount Vernon Argus

Retail Dealers Assemble
In Seattle

Another milestone in the progress
OF organization work among the
retail merchants Of Warrington
passed into history with the close Of
the fourteenth annual convention
OF the Washington Retail Mer-
chants association at Seattle Thurs
day. after having spent three days
in the consideration of questions in
vol7ing the interests of the retailer.
The convention was fairly repre-
sentative in its attendance and its
deliberations well conducted by
President h. c. Rooms. Progress
was reflected in the growth Of the
movement though hardly along lines
which reflect a commensurate ap-
p1eciation Of the advantages and
possibilities entailed for co-opera
tion among the merchants of the
state for their mutual advantage.
There were delegates present from
fourteen of the nineteen associa-
tions affiliated with the state organ
ization with the secretaries Of two
strong organizations of business
men among the ten such associa-
tions that are operating independ-
emily. An intelligent interest was
evlnced in the various topics sug-
gested for discussion and. while the
number of stated papers were linn
tied. they were excellent and we'll
received. OF results accomplished.
we are Of the opinion that the pro-
gress shown in providing for uni
form rating and credit information
bureaus is destined to prove q strong
factor for advancement. by afford
ing opportunity for the local and
state associations to make practical
demonstrations of their tangible
value. This. naturally. is but one
feature Of the work. but it is clear
ly recognized as possessed Of q larg-
.er degree Of Importance and per-.
manence than the advocacy of issu-
es which have proved lacking in
feasibility, because Of public disap-
proval of the Intervention of the
courts. or the exploitation of'schem-
es which have no direct bearing up
on the conduct Of successful mer-
chandising. In the selection Of
Thomas R. Kinsey, of Bellingham,
as president of the state association
for the coming year, the board Of
trustees has fixed upon man who
is not only an enthusiastic believer
in association work, but who brings
to the organization unusual ability
ard a tireless fund of energy. The
convention, at its concluding ses-
sion, selected North Yakima as the
place of holding the 1914 meeting.

SUMMER RESORT
 IS SWEPT BY FIRE
EETNsg.;sewRsscs-, &,

Salisbury Beach, Mass, Sept 10 A chilly northwest wind, whipping in from Massachusetts Bay at sunrise today, found 200 homeless vacation fists shivering under scanty~-covering on Salisbury beach. Clad in thin clothing men, women and children had stood guard all night over the few belongings they were able to rescue from the sweep of the fires that devasted the summer resort. Heaps of smoking ruins were all that remained today of nearly 300 cot tages and seven hotels that were in the path of the flames. Rumors of coming arrests and State police in- vestigation were current. Early to- day a squad of police arrived from Haverhill. Officials were apparently satisfied that second fire. which broke out shortly after midnight at the southern end of the beach, was of .incendiary origin.
 Conservative estimates this mora ing place the loss of the fire at $250,- 00O.

New Orleans Cotton.

Now orleans, Sept. 10.-Cotton-F'u- tures opened steady at decline of 50o1O points on poor cables and more rain in the western cotton belt. First ,r;cos were the lowest in the early trading, although crop reports from reyas. Oklahoma and Arkansas had a more cheerful tone and cable messages fror, Liverpool reported considerable hedge selling from the south, sellers of this class apparently having pick ed 4out Liverpool as safest for their purpose because of it's freedom from unfavorable legislation. The decline brought out fresh buying for long ac- count and at the end of the first half hour of business prices were 1M2 points over yesterdays close.
 Toward the middle of the morning buying was sufficiently strong to put prices to a net advance of 305 points, as telegrams from Texas claimed that the rains of the last few days would add materially to the size of the crop. This claim brought out considerable short selling, under which the mar ket gave way, although at no time during the morning did the market show any real weakness. The trade at all times was inclined to wait for developments in Washington regard ing anti-future legislation. At noon prices were 405 points under yester- days last quotations.
