WlTtD (FF0RT WINS. The following very able article from the Seattle Poat lntelliRencer goes to how what oaited effort will do when properly directed j "The suooess which is attending the necurinc of the subsidy to insure the building of the Lake Washington canal nod the tide flat waterway demon titrates that the "Seattle idea" has not lost its hold upon the people of the city, and that when it comes to bang ing together and working as one man for any project which is demonstrated to be for the best interests of the city, oar cititeni will be true to the record which they have made in the past in that direotion. The Seat I a idea had its origin in the days of the infancy of the town, when, having only some 2000 or 3000 inhabitants, it lost the prize for which it had grasped to be named the terminus ol the .Northern Pacific railroad and was further op pressed by the active hostility of all the then existing transportation lines of the territory, who were heartily en listed in the effort to cripple the re sources of the infant city, and build up a rival to it on Commencement bay. "la those days money was scarcer here than it is at this time, even when a blight seems to hare settled upon the industries of the entire world. No money ia any amount had ever come here for investment from abroad, and the people resident in the city as a rule had brought little or nothing with them when they came here. "The yery existence of the town was threatened by the action of the North- urn Pacifio officials, and there was no help to be looked for from abroad. As a means to secure the prestige of the town it was thought necessary to start some enterprise of a magnitude and character sufficient to demonstrate that there was the making here of a city. The most feasable suggestion was the building of a railroad line to open 'up the coal fields lying east of the city and then but in the first stages of development. "It was hopeless to try and enlist out side capital in such an enterprise, and from the comparative poverty of the people af the little town it looked equally hopeless to attempt such an undertaking with nothing to rely on bnt local resources. "But hopelessly as it seemed, there was magic in a co-operation which en listed every single inhabitant of the city in the undertaking. When the railroad company was organized not a rnan who lived in the city refused to contribute toward its construction. The few who had a little money sub scribed lavishly and, indeed, almost recklessly from their little fortunes; the merchants subscribed even goods from their shelves, the land owners liberally of their land, although the latter was of little immediate use at the time in directly furthering the project. Day laborers and mechanics, whose sole capital was their labor and skill, gave as freely of that, and took Mocks of stock, to be paid for by work on the railroad. Finally to give the project its first impetus, the town en mass went to work actually and physically on the roadbed, and for two days every man and half grown boy in the city not in capacitated by age or infirmity worked with ax, pick and shovel and thus graded in that time three miles of the road. While the men toiled the wom en turned out and cooked for tbem. "The work never stopped until a railroad was built, equipped and in running condition to the Newcastle and Benton coal mines, and a new in dustry of great importance, tributary to the city, was created. "This was the spirit of the Seattle of twenty, years ago and this was the birth of "the Seattle idea," which has built np a city at present second only in commercial importance on the Pa cifio coast to San Francisco, and with prospects for the future brighter, pos sibly, than those of any city west of Chicago. "The Seattle ides still exists, it is apparent, and the success of the south canal project will demonstrate it." Th subsidy given by the people of Astoria to secure a railroad amounts to one-fifth of the entire property of that city, the assessed valuation of which is 11,791,885. These figures should be carefully considered by all persons owning right-of-way along the proposed route. Japan has not yet gained her victory over China. It is noW authoratively stated that Kussia, France and Ger many are tot satisfied with the terms of peace in East Asia and will insist that certain items in the proposition for peace be stricken out, claiming that they jeopardize the interests of these countries. Ths best recommendation a man ever had was a reputation for doing well whatever he undertakes. If a thing is worth doing at all it is worth doing well. This maxim has made many a man rich, and when taken with that other maxim of attending to your own business and letting others : do the samait is a sure road to success. BUILDING ANOTHER RAFT. A Profit in Towing Logs to the San Francisco Mills. W. E. Balnea, who was Interested in ths great raft that went to pieces in a storm on ths 1'acitlo a few months ago, says that in company with H. R. Robertson he is now constructing another raft, which he hopes to safely get to San Francisco, says ths Ex aminer. . It Is being built at Stella, Washington, forty miles up the Columhla from its month, and will contain 400,'WO lineal feet, the equivalent in board measure of 6,000,000. "The raft will be ciscar shaped," said Mr. Baines; "will be 520 feet long, fifty-two feet wide, thirty feet in depth, and will draw between twenty and twenty-one feet of water. Its logs if placed end to end, would reach the distance of seventy-iix miles. The weight will be 10,000 tons. The girth at the midship section is 139 feet, and at the end of the tapered section forty-five feet. "Ths raft is so well on toward completion now that I xuect it will be ready for sea by June 15th. At that season ths weather is always fair, and the prevailing winds, which are light, from the northwest, are favorable. 1 think, therefore, that we ean get her safely to this port, and that she will uot meet the fate of our raft which went to pieces in the greut storm off this coast in October 1 it. "This, I regard as the real way to trans port building material to San Francisco from the northern forests. The raw mater ial in the log can be delivered here at a cost but slightly in excess of the cost of the raw material to the northern mills. The slabs, edgings, sawdust and other waste, which the northern mills destroy by burning for want of use to put it to, can here be sold for firewood and other purposes for a price more than sufficient to pay the cost of raft- inz and manufacturing. "The cost of freighting sawed lumber by sailing vessel from the north is now from $3.50 to $5 a thousand feet. By bringing the material hers In the raw and manufac turing it here, it can be sold at from 93.50 to $5 cheaper. The raft, in my opinion, will be a success, and has come to stay." AN INDIAN KILLED. Frank Joseph Ran Over by a North ern Pacifio Train. Frank Joseph, an Indian belonging on Lewis river, was struck by the Northern Pacific passenger train last Friday evening near Scappoose, and instantly killed. He bore the name of being a very bad Indian and had been to Portland that day return ing on the Young America. The steamer landed and put him ashore somewhere np the slough because ks would not pay bis fare though he had the money. After the announcement of the accident Justice 8 wager, acting coroner, went to Scappoose and held an inquest. The body was in terred in the county lot in Germany Hill cemetery Sunday. The following is the verdict of the coroner's jnry : We, the coroner's jnry empanelled to en onireinto the circumstances" attending- the death of Indian Francis Joseph, beg leave to report as follows, to-wit: That we find the name of said Indian to be Francis Joseph, aged about 30 years. That he was last seen alive at Scappoose station on Friday. April 19. 1895. at 6:30 P. M., in an intoxicated condition, and that he was last seen walking along toe track of the Northern Pacific railroad going north. That he came to his death by being struck bv the Northern Pacific train No 1 at a Doint one mile north of scaDDOOse station and that his death was accidental, and we do not blame the tram crew for said acci dent, but do censure the engineer of said tram tor not sounding a danger signal on said occasion. 8.

He declined the committee's guarantee for the balance of the right-of-way for the new road. He asked only for abstracts of title, which are being furnished. Three-fourths of the right-of-way is secured. The com mittee starts tomorrow on a final trip over the section between Weatport and Goble. Ten days is sufficient to finish the work. Hammond is satisfied the work will be done, and opens an office here. The peo ple are enthusiastic.

Gutfeld, of Beedley, Fresno Co., Cal., as he handles the remedy referred to and wants his customers to know what a splendid medicine it is: "It is with pleasure I tell you that by one day's use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy I was relieved of a very severe cold. My bead was completely stopped up and I could not sleep at nights. I can recommend this remedy." A cold nearly always starts in the head and afterwards extends to the throat and lungs. By using this remedy freely as soon as the cold has been contracted it will cure the cold st once and pre vent it from extending to the lungs FOR THE BLOOD Ttts last tertitt MseWas Just now everybody Is thinking about taking something for the blood. A Spring medicine as we speak of It. And It's a good thing to do, but you want to get the proper medicine. If you consult your physician he will tell you to mnfrp good Lnrea and that, because the liver has every thing to do with the blood. If the liver is sluggish the system is clogged, the blood becomes Impure, snd the whole body suffers. Every medicine recom mended for the blood is supposed to work on the liver.
