TRADE OF
SEATTLE GROWS
EACH MONTH

Seattle newspapers are authority
for the statement that the Washing
ton .city's ocean commerce, despite
the closing of the Panama canal and
the withdrawal of the fleet of the Am,
eriean- Hawaiian Steamship Company.
continues to increase by leaps and
bounds. Enormous trade between
Seattle and the Orient has made up
for the loss as a result of the closing
CT the canal, and the first two months
of 1915 made big showing. ,.
There were five Japanese steamers
in Seattle recently, four of which
were loading for the Far East. The
fifth was discharging shipments valu-
ed at more than 100000.
The fleet included the Hawaii Ma
ru, Mexico ,Maru, Gishun Maru, Asama
Maru and Shidzuoka Maru. .
Three Liners Coming.
Unusually heavy cargoes are now
being shipped to the coast by the

After several years absence from
the transpaeific service, the Nippon
Yusen Kaisha liner Kamakura Maru
is now running between Hongkong

The Kamakura Maru is replacing
the liner Aki Maru in the n. Y. K.

slightly larger, was taken off the

GERMAN ATTACK ON VERDUN mere
bluff, DECLARES SAN FRANCISCAN

Lieut. Eerdier does not believe that
the decisive battles Of the war will be
fought IN France. The French line is
too short and too strongly fortified. he
thinks, for any decisive action To take
place there. He expects the crucial
struggle to take place on the Balkan
and Russian front, where the battle
lines are longer and also thinner
The San Francisco warrior has thus
several occasions bullets and fraa-
ments OF shrapnel have torn his uni
form. He brought home with him a
silver emblem of valor.
The hardest lighting in which
took part was in the drive on Cham
ragne September 25," he said. That
was a terrific engagement.
Caught in Gas.
At Argonne the lieutenant was
caught in one OF the German gas vol
leys and was overcome for several
hours by the deadly fumes.
His most disagreeable experience in
the entire campaign. Lieut.. Verdier
said, was when he first came into the
line of fire of one of the German quick
firing guns.
These guns shoot very low, and
they wound a great many men," he
explained. Their effects are per
haps not quite so fatal as some of the
other guns, but they incapacitate a
much larger number than any other

1t is not customary for an ex-

other than his company as to the
condition existing in offices he

from expressing to You my graf
ifieatiOn because of the splendid
condition in which / found every
thing in your office.
Too much credit cannot be Civ
en- you for having brought about
such an excellent condition of af-

no is to be congratulated on hav-
ing such a competent and efficient
state treasurer.
My duties take me into the Of

offices are conducted on a very

lucted better than yours.

lions, but the harm is usually
much greater than the good. The
principal and about the only good
Ientailed is the interest aroused in
getting the people to studying the
conditions and going out to vote,
The harm they do is that they
lappeal to the prejudice of the vO-
tiers and get many of them to for
get for whom and for what they
are voting and then vote the tick
ct straight. The organization of
the clubs, no matter by which par
ty, prejudieeS to greater or less
degree the members of the other
party and makes many of them
vote their ticket straight when
they would not otherwise do so.
This frequently works a hardship
and is sometimes the cause of the
defeat of good men for local or
county offices. If the voters are
left along to form their own con-
illusions as to whom they should
vote for without party prejudice,
they are not so apt to make mis-
takes as when they are control
led by party narrOwness. Any
thing done through prejudice is
seldom right, but if prejudice is
eliminated and he does what he |
believes to be right af-
ter deliberate consideration, the |
voter will not be far wrong.
These political clubs as a rule /
work for the benefit of the strong
sr party where organized and
against the weaker, but where the
parties are almost equal, they fire.

As a rule the organization of

Judge Hughes is making a roar
ing campaign of the west and will
be in Spokane and Occur d'Alene
Sunday and Monday. According
to the newspapers he is exciting
some interest, but the people gen
orally do not seem to be exceed
ingly interested in his case. The
Americans naturally are boosters,
and knOcker does not appeal to
them. Afr. Hughes would make
far more capital by telling the
people what great good he could
do for them than he possibly can
by criticising the nations chief
executive, who has piloted his
country through seas of troubles
surprisingly well. Mr.. Roosevelt
was in the ascendency with public
acclaim as long as he boosted,
but when his disposition to knock
began to crop out his bright poll
teal star took on its downward
course. Being such a stauneh sup
porter of Mr.. Hughes he should |
have cautioned him along this
line, instead Of setting him agoing
with a calamity howl that will |
hardly take root during these
peaceful, prosperous days.
