Pl'OET SOUND CO.'S PLANTS.
Will r." Sold April 1.1 and Lively Rid
ding Expected.
The Seattle PosMn:elltgencer of re
cent date says:
The date f the ecelvr's sale of the
plants of the Puuet Sound Packing Co.
his been set for April 1.1. and It Is ex
pected there will be livly bidding. The
property of this concern comprises the
old Seaborg plant at Fairhavcn, the
Hanthon plant at Port nr.'l s and
other minor Interests. The corporation
wa organised a your ago hy New York
parties an I, aside fnm the canneries
centrolled. owns some of the b.-st fishing
grounds ,n the Sound.
The plant at Fuirhaven lias h'n en
larged since ihe b'il was made and Is
said to he one of the best on the Sound.
It ha a dally capacity of 3010 cases.
The Port Angeles plait was not .oper
ated last year. It wis the old Han
thorn" plant an I has a cipaclty of $00
cases a day. Since the beginning of
the sardine Industry here It has been
tiS'.'d some for that product and It Is
fald Is admirably adapt?! for such
use.
The Interest in the sal.e which will
be conducted by Receiver Henry M.
Neton at Falrhivn, Is In the fact that
the Alaska Packers Association Is re
ported to be aftir the property. It Is
said this concern will use It to Increase
Its output this season and make Its war
to prevent the consolidation of Interests
here. It Is also said the combine of
Sound and Alaska canneries headed by
R. Onffroy la after the property and
therefore it would not be surprising if
It should bring a good price.

similar way until the contract Is com

the two bidders created general sur
rrl An offlelel nf -he county said
v aterday that t'WiO a mile would be
a fair price for the work and allow a
margin to the ermractor. Koads have
been constructed for other counties for

the lowest bid submitt-sl. T'nler the
first specification the road waa to be

Is the r-a-i'.n for asking bidder to
submit estimates for the two width.

CAN CUBANS GOVERN THEM
SELVES. One of the best known diplomatists
recently declared that the Cubans are
Inctpable of governing themselves, and
that the United States must maintain
Its present control Indefinitely, or else
annex the Island. There win be those
who will dispute this, but there are
none who depute the well established
fact that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
la capable of controlling the common
diseases of the stomach. It is a rem
edy that Is backed by fifty years of
success. It Is an Ideal medicine for
constipation: a strength builder for
those who are predisposed to lung trou
bles, and for nervousness It Is of won
derful be lefit. As an appetlxer It Is In
comparable. Those whose stomachs are
out of order should not fall to try a
bottle.
