A further advance of 1890 occurred
in the raw sugar market today with a
better inquiry, spots now being quoted
at 4.46 and July shipeient at 452.
Sales included $1,000 bags of Porto
Rican. $1,000 Philippines and 5000 Gu
4.46, and al.Ooe bags of Philippines
for July shipment at 4.b2.
Rejecting the advance In the spot
market, raw sugar futures sold three
to four points higher on active cover
ing and increased outside buying. The
upturn, however, met increased offer
ings and was all lost under liquidation
and selling for European account. The
latter was influenced by more favor
able foreign crop advices.
Final prices were unchanged to one
point net lower. July 2.70, September
2.S5, December 2.92, March 2.96.
Refined sugar was unchanged at 5.55
to $40 for fine granulated, with a con-
tinued good withdrawal demand and
some increasing new business.

size and appearance of COM
fort by great many others.
1t was, | learned, the home
of William Jones, a coal miner
employed for several years in
this camp" A note of intro
duction from the superintend-
ent of the mine gave me ready
and welcome entrance, and
permission to take the pic
lures of the home interior and
the family group here shown.
Inquiry brought out the
fact that a great majority of
the articles in the house, in
Guiding the house itself and
the clothing worn by the MEM
bers of the family, were either
of Seattle manufacture or had
come through Seattle whole
salers or jobbers. Most of
them had been purchased at
the local store; a few had
been bought in the stores of
Seattle on the occasional visits
TO "the city.n
At 4 o'clock Bill" Jones HIM
self came swinging down the road.
A shower in the warm drying and
dressing room at the mine had re-
moved all trace Of the eight hours
at the mine.
The first suggestion Of a pic
ture of himself for the paper did
not appeal to Bill" but glance
at the letter from the superintend-
ent led TO a prompt compliance if
II was for the company"
An inventory of Bills" wearing
apparel showed that every article
on his person. including his pipe
and watch, had come from Seattle
and had made a profit for some
Seattle manufacturer or dealer.
Biz Jones gets about dollar
and a quarter an hour. He earns
about $40 in an eight-hour shift.
He buys not only for himself. but
also for his family Of four. Verify

Multiply William Jones by 1000
to realize the value of the coal in
dustry to the state of Washington.
Consider the fact that this in
dustry pays out annually in this
state approximately $20,000,000
for wages and supplies; that it
pays about a half million dollars
yearly in taxes. ~ per cent of
which goes to the schools.
Consider, finally. the fact that
oil, produced outside the state of
Washington, is being offered as

Will you use a fuel which threat
ems William Jones employment
and which will reduce the pros
per'ity of yourself, your city and

the general prosperity and your

w at the mountains
which rim the horizon, do
you ever think of the
thousands of men who
are working strenuously,
day after day, hundreds
of feet below the surface
of those mighty hills,
mining and bringing out
the rich, black fuel to heat
our homes, and to run our
factories, our trains and
ships?
AS though she knew
that some day a thriving
metropolis would spring
up on the shores of Puget
Sound, needing for Its
prosperity an abundance
of cheap, convenient fuel,
Nature has stored up in
the hills of Washington
vast beds of excellent
coal.
And every day a small army
of men labor in the cool pas
sages and chambers of Wash
ington's coal veins.
The result of their labor is
not alone coy warmth in our
homes and pulsing, pent-up
power in the boilers that drive
our engines, but it is also a
fuller measure of prosperity
for every one Of us.
For the millions of dollars
that are spent annually by the
coal miners of the state, and
for supplies and equipment
for their use, stimulate every
channel of trade and help
nightly in driving our city
forward along the road of
commercial progress.
How directly Seattle's bust
ness is benefited by the pur-
chases of a single miner and
how numerous are the con-
Germs thus directly benefited,
is illustrated by the actual
case of the coal miner pictured
on this page.
