sTIKINE RIVER BOAT
 IS BEING IMPROVED

The tunnel.stern river boat Nahlin, built in Wrangell last spring, from Geary design, is being enlarged and converted into stern wheeler to be equipped with a 125 h. D. Eastern Standard. The Nahlin was used with varied success on the Stikine last season and her accomplishments were such that it was decided to enlarge the boat and change the type. Mr. Neill has deferred building the west coast boat and has started work on the Nah lin.-Wrangell Sentinel

'Inef1ciency in the management

the human product. Women should
know and realize that more than any

Iialibut Schooner Mckinley Inspected

Captain C.. A. Norton took his
new halibut schooner Mckinley
to Seattle Sunday to undergo official

The Mckinley was recently re-
constructed at the W. H. Reed ship
ward at Decatur and received her
finishing touches at the city float.
On her return here she will outfit
for the trip and receive her crew OF
fourteen men. She is to make a
trip every two weeks.
The Mckinley was given trial

Robert Moran's New Boat

It is understood that the new
yacht which is being built by Rob-
ert Moran, at Rosario will be the
finest pleasure boat on the Pacific
coast. Those who have seen her
say the wood work and finish will
be the best that good shipbuilders
and money can put into her. and
that her equipment will be the most
complete of any boat they have
seen. Her motors, which will be
two 65 h. .. six-cylinder Corliss en-
gines, will he entirely controlled
from the pilot house by air-starting
and reversing controls. and her
schooner rigging is being made
staunch and sufficient for bowling
her along at a good speed under
canvas alone. She will be a three
master, 1913 feet in overall length.

An Open Invitation to All Interested

A good meeting of the new Rod
and Gun club was held Monday eve
ming. Things are progressing nice
ly and the members have several
good ideas framed up in regard to
new game birds and game fish for
the county.
Two communications from East
Sound were read, signifying the de-
sire of several sportsmen of that
live little town to join the organiza-
tion.
A report has been circulated that
the new club is an exclusive one
and merely a Friday Harbor insti-
tuition. This idea is incorrect. The
Friday Harbor sportsmen got to
gether for the simple reason that
someone had to start the ball rol.
ing. and urgent calls have been
made by this paper for the last four
weeks for any and all in any way
interested in the game question to
attend the meetings.
In behalf of the new club we
again urge all interested to attend
the next meeting and identify
themselves with the good cause.
All farmers and those living in the
country are especially invited to
come in. The organization is coun-
ty-wide, as the name indicates. ana
all residents of the county are cor
daily invited to join. The char
ter will be heli open until the first
Monday in June in order that those
wishing to join may get in as char
ter members. The initiation fee
is S1.00. and yearly dues will also
be $l.OO.
The new club is not trying to
butt il" "or usurp any ones else
rigths. but merely organized to
start the movement, and now that
it is started, they are going to stay
with it. The new game code
changes the order of things in the
game question, and the sportsmen
have come into their own at last.
The San Juan County Rod and
Gun club was organized for the
purpose of getting the sportsmen
together and helping along the
good cause. The county needs new
game birds and game fish and also
some new blood among the game
animals, and it is the intention of
the new club to see that we get
them. If you, too, arc interested,
get in the game and join the new
club.
Bert Chalmers. Of West Sound,
attended the meeting Monday night
and became charter member.
Once more. everybody, if you
are in any way interested you are
cordially invited to attend the next
meeting Monday evening, May 5.
at P. M. at Ross Tulloch's Hard
ware, Friday Harbor.

MiIImen Want Tariff on Products

Hundreds Of kilograms protest
ing against the proposed plan Of
placing lumber and shingles and
other forest products on the free
list have been sent % Washing tons
representatives at the national cap
ltol by mill men during the last
week. Any injury that will come
to these industries from free trade
will fall heaviest on the Western
Washington manufacturers. it is
said.
At the present time the mills Of
Western Washington cut and ship
$4,000 cars OF cedar shingles a
year. supplying 65 ger cent. of the
shingles consumed in the United
States. When a duty of 80 per
cent. was levied on shingles the
British Columbia mills shipped s.
600 cars annually into the United
States. mill owners assert.s These
were manufactured ith Oriental
labor they say.
Many millmen point out that the
best of states cedar is now gone
and that the majority Of the shing-
les being cut at the present time
are from stumps, broken and burn
ed logs and from windfalls. This
they point out is doing more to-
wards clearing the land here and
developing agriculture than any
other one thing at the present time.
/ Should the present duty on shing-
giles be removed many of the Wash
ington mill owners, it is said, will
move their plants to the Canadian
side of the line. where timber is
much more plentiful than here. and
where Oriental labor may be ub-
tained cheaper than white labor.
This will retard the growth Of the
county, they declare, and drive
many homeseekers from this sec
tion because of the unimrroved
condition of the country.
"A mass meeting protesting
against the proposed plan was held
by mill owners in Seattle April 9.
it is possible that one will be held
in Bellingham in the near future.
Mr.. Bloedel. of that city, said
recently that the outlook FOR the
lumber trade is fair at the present
time both in rail and cargo ship
ments. The recent floods in the
east demoralized the lumber and
shingle market in those sections for
the time being. Building there
will now be renewed with vigor,
it is believed, and the market will
be better than ever.
The railroads lost heavily from
the storms and are now preparing
to place heavy orders for material.
Steel is scarce at the present time
and great part of the construction
work will be of wood.

Canadian Cattle at Chicago.
livestock World.l

An s0-cent freight rate from AL
berta points to Chicago is likely to pre-
vent many western Canadian cattle
from reaching Chicago. From similar
points In the United States the rate is
only 80 cents. Canadian roads are
naturally anxious to prevent diversion
Of livestock traffic to American lines,
and there is general disposition to
throw every possible obstacle in the
path of international cattle traffic. AL
ready Canadian papers are sounding
an alarm that there is danger of drain
ing the dominion of young cattle and
female stuff and such an heroic rem
edy as closed season Is suggested.
Canadian growers never dreamed Of
such prices as American spectators
have been bidding, since free trade be-
came effective, and the fact that many
Ct these SPECTATORS refuse to disclose
prices realized on this SIDE of the line
suggest that they nave not been throw
ing their money away in Canada, 9th
erwise there would be no objection to
publicity. Where Alberta cattle grow
ers are able to trail their shipments
across the line into Montana and take
advantage Of American rates, sending
stock to Chicago is practicable, but
elsewhere the Canadian roads are in
terposlng obstacles to the traffic.
