VADSO SINKS
BUT ALL ARE RESCUED
UNITED PRESS LEASED wmn.l

Prince Rupert, B. c., Feb 5,-The
steamship Vadso, of the Union line,
Captain Richardson, sank in Napoga
Gulf, Portland Canal at 3:45 a. m. on
Tuesday The boat, en- route for Gran
by bay, in heavy snow storm, hit a
rock, sinking in half an hour in 40
fathoms. Twenty.six persons on board
were all saved reaching here yesterday
by the steamship Venture.
The shippers own story Of the sink
ing is that the Yadso struck in a
storm when it was still dark. The
steamer Immediately began to fill
Many Of the crew were in their hunks,
and had only time to get few person
al effects and lower away small boats.
All Of the freight, including a big coal
shipment, was lost The survivors
reached Arrandale cannery, where they
were picked up by the Venture.
Portland canal is the southernmost
boundary of Alaska.

An Old Vessel.

Vancouver b. c., Feb. 5.--The Vadso
was one Of the oldest vessels in active
service on this coast, having been built
in 1881 by Messrs. Motala & Co., at
Gothenburg and named the Bordeaux, a
a name which afterwards changed
when she was purchased by the Bosco-
witt company and brought out here
five or six years ago. When the Union
Steamship company took over the Bos.
cowitz company in 1911 they took over
the Yadso.
The lost steamer, which was con
structed Of iron and had single pro.
peller, has been very unlucky Of late
years. Only last winter she stranded
in a fog in Bayues Sound and the dam
age was extensive For long time she
lay off the Wallace shipyards up for
sale but eventually the Union Steam
ship company decided to have her re.

HARRIS THINKS SUIT
SHOULD Be DISMISSED
Action Involving Alleged Contract
With Union Printers Involves Only
Dead Issue, He Says.
NO QUESTION INVOLVED AT
THIS TIME, HE DECLARES
Agreement Abrogated Long Time ago
and There Is Nothing Upon Which
to Base Injunction.

According to State Printer Harris, it
makes no material difference which
way Judge Galloway decides the in.
junction suit brought by the two non
union printers against himself and the
state printing board FOR the reason the
agreement which was entered into be.
tween the state printer and the Allied
Printers Trades Council has long ago
been abrogated and that the court has
already decided that that part of the
injunction requiring the printing board
to hold up the salaries of the employees
in the printing plant was to have no
effect in the proceedings,
The plaintiffs applying for the in
junction first asked the court to
include in the order a provision to the
effect that the secretary of state and
the state printer must not draw any
warrant for the payment of the salaries
of the men employed in the plant until
after the litigation had been settled.
On motion, Judge Galloway refused to
recognize this request and left that
part out of the temporary restraining
order. The remainder of the order
only restrains the state printer from
acting under the agreement between
himself and the printers union. Inas-
much as it has been admitted by the
plaintiffs that the agreement has been
abrogated and is no longer in force
there are no more questions at issue and
from all appearances the state printer
is correct in his deductions.
1t may appear, however, that the
court, in striking out that part Of the
order affecting the salaries Of the
printers, meant only to grant the wages
until action has been settled and then
replace the provisions in the event q
permanent injunction was granted.
State Printer Harris contends thai
so far as he can see the suit is deaC
issue now by mutual consent Of bOtf
parties and that it should be dismissed
without further consideration.

PEARL, HAZEL, TAXES AND
THE INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION

We received recently from the Of
flee of the state industrial commission
at Olympia the half-tone pictures of
two Of the brightest, most charming
and most capable young ladies in the
state--Pearl Molzer and Hazel Daven-
port, One is stenographer for the Sec
retary's division Of the commission and
the other Is minute clerk. Their pic
lures came in a booklet Of 1873 pages,
bound in handsome speckled cover,
and they were printed by the state
printer at prices fixed by the law for
composition and presswOrk, plus the
actual cost of the paper stock. Lest
somebody may fall into error we hasten
to add that the administration at
Olympia is not partial to bald-heRded
ed old skates like the editor, but will
furnish these pictures Of Pearl and
Hazel to each and every citizen Of the
state who may happen to want them
free Of cost.
Some complaint has been going
around about the cost Of the state
government, but, as the Republic, has
often said, government now undertakes
to do much for the people that formerly
and so it takes more money to foot the
bills. We all want to know about Pearl
and Hazel, how they are looking since
first we met them and last we saw
them; whether they friz their hair or
comb it straight back; whether the
light Of the old-time laughter is still in
their eyes; whether they have the tango
face or not, and whether their work
under the operations of the eight-hour
law and the minimum wage scheme
makes them seem sad or joyful. Do we
want--or should we want--all that for
nothingl Nay, nay, Pauline, Pearl and
Hazel We do not. We are full Of the
good rcd sporting blood, and we want
nothing for nothing, nor anything that
is cheap. We not only want what we.
want, but we are willing to pay, and
nothing we have ever said to or about
the tax gatherer has indicated our true
feelings, either on the subject Of taxes
or pretty girls,
The booklet in which these pictures
are printed is strangely disfigured by
a lot Of statistical rot about the oper-
ations Of the industrial commission.
We find, on wading through it, that
during the first two years Of the opera.
tions Of the board II soaked the indus
tries Of the state for 1854 ,53s, and
that it takes credit for not soaking
them harder, which II might have done
under the law; that in the last year up
to October /, 1918, it paid out for
awards $l,37I27l, and that its own ex-
penses from June /, 1911, to October
1918, were $2lO,O797s
We have gazed long and searching
" into the pictured faces Of Pearl and
Hazel-not as individuals, we want it
understood, but as public documents
and we have wondered il they give n
darn about that two and half million.
We don believe they do.-Yakima

DICK HOWELL IS
DOING BIG THINGS
In the way of improvements
to Down Town Property.

The new Arcade which R. C. How
ell is digging into his down town bust
ness property has advanced far
enough to insure the notion that it is
TO be place of beauty and joy for
some time to all who view it.
This arcade takes up large part
of the store room bat recently vacated
by the Tilghmar Hardware Company
at least half of it. The other half
will be occupied by small stalls for
business purposes, and facing the
Arcade. On the west side Of the Ar
cade will be plate glass windows
which will look through into the pref
ty restaurant now being fitted ca. by
that Palatka prince of restaurant
ers, Bob" James.
The Arcade will also lead to a new
entrance for the Howell theater, and
Tic whole will be finely finished and
at night brilliant in electric lights.
Mr.. James is We'll along with the in
terror fnishings of his restaurant,
enough so that a very clear idea can
he had Of the really cosmopolitan
place he intends to conduct. The
woodwork is old mission finish and
the furnishings soon to be installed
will amplify the idea.
Mr.. Howell will still manage the
theater, but he has leased the hotel to
DR.. Sullivan, an expert in that line,
who will make improvements and run
fine European house. The James
restaurant will draw to the hotel fea-
ure. These Improvements, with the
Tilghman Hardware Co.'S new stores
with ornamental plate glass and
bronze fronts, will add needed luster
to lower Lemon street
