( WILL TOW TO SAN DIEGO Pint Venture Success and Others Will Be Sent Down and Be Towed Up There Wage Advanced on Steamers News Along the Waterfront Notes, The steamer Daisy Freeman arrived In yesterday and left up the river where she will load lumber. The Free man la a new steam schooner and this is her first trip to this port The pilot schooner Pulitser came In yesterday after a stay of several weeks at sea and will ship a new supply of provisions and water. The four-masted schooner Colum bla arrived in yesterday 13 days from San Francisco. She will load lumber for the return trip. The steamer Alliance is due from Coos Bay today and the steamer Roanoke Is also expected In from southern ports. The Benson Logging; Company will loir three log rafts from the mouth of Beaver Crerk. at Clatskanie, to the company's sawmill at San Diego dur ing the months of July and August The three rafts will contain an ag Kregftte of over 13.000,000 feet of logs and piles. One of the rafts has al ready been completed, and the second one" is well under way, while the third will be completed in time to send It South before the end of August This particular time of year Is selected for towing lumber in raft form because the' weather Is most propitious, there - being less danger from sudden and severe coast storms. The significance of sending three rafts down at a time lies in the fact that this method of shipping the raw product is likely to supercede to a large extent the transportation of lum ber by boat though rafting lumber must always be regarded as a particu larly hazardous matter, and it is said la not subject to insurance. It Is at present purely In the experimental stage, and S. Benson, president of the Benson Logging Company was laughed at by the timber interests when he announced last year that he would tow a raft down the whole lentgh of the coast He built a raft containing 3,000,000 feet of logs, and It reached Its destination without the loss of a stick. Tha success of that venture led Mr. Benson to prepare for towing more rafts down the coast this season, and his example has been followed by the Oregon Raft Company, which will send four or five rafts, aggregating close to 6,000,000 feet each, to Redondo and Other California ports during the sum mer. 31m steamboat people are having their labor troubles now days as well as other people. The O. C. T. Com pany were forced to raise the wages of their deckhands $10 per month and the firemen on the Lurline have asked for a raise of 35 per month and It is thought they will quit this morning when the steamer reaches Portland If their demand is not granted. Captain Larking says that years ago when they had to handle cordwood every inch of the way they were satisfied but now that they can set In a cushioned chair and occasionally turn a valve back and forth they want captain's wages.

She will sail on her return trip Monday afternoon from this port. The steamer Elmore sails this morn ing for Tillamook with a full cargo of general merchandise and supplies.
