De--. 13. Senator Foster of Washington says that the comment- of I'uKk't Sound Is Increasing more rapidly than that of any 'other portion of the I'nited Slates. "During the ten months ended with Oc tober." the Senator stated today, "the ex ports f n mi the port of Tacoma were val ued at over J15.6uO.OUO. an Increase of inn 71' per lent over the corresponding period for lSul. The port of Seattle has also shown remarkable increase In Its ex ports, and has been the banner city of the I'nited States in , .e number of new houses built for the year. In the matter of the shipment of bread stuffs Puget Sound shows an Increase of over 41 per cent, and that district islifted from the ninth to the sixth placer and now ranks well up wltlj Haw Yyik, Baltimore and Philadelphia. " With reference to the. tariff, Senator Foster says that the times are too good to undertake any revision at this time. All lines of business are crowded, he says. In the State of Washington, and In the ! matter of lumber, for instance, with , which he Is directly connected, he states j that many 01 the mills are absolutely un able to till their orders. It Is nut a question of securing more trade, but of 1 filling the orders that are sent from all I parts of the I'nited States and In filling the orders by steamers and sailing ves sels tQ.forelgnar ..... ,. . LUMBER INDUSTRY.- "In this connection." said 8enator Foater, "It may be Interesting to note that Tacoma has the largest sawmill plant In the world. There may be other concerns managing a number of sawmill plants In different parts of the country which have a larger capacity than the St. Faul and Thomas Lumber Company, but that concern, nevertheless, has a greater capacity than any sawmill plant In the world, and while there are other plants' of almost equal capacity located at Port Blakely and elsewhere thoughout the State of Washington, they are unable to fill all the orders crowding in upon them for fir. spruce and cedar lumber. "A few weeks ago a sash and door fac tory located near the plant in which I am interested near Tacoma burned, and inside of two weeks after the property was destroyed, the company had on file orders for mote than I't.OOO cedar. doors, to say nothing of other housefurn'lshing materials. , ... - RICH HARVESTS. -"VrW f.,,e I, f,lWSrri,fS,'iiT,'pflrtlO'" u tarty the wheat and. hop tarrners, have been reaping a rich harvest, and', having paid off their mortgages long ago. nre now purchasing many of the luxuries of life and caking trips td visit their friends in the East during Thanksgiving and hol iday tunes. Our state will receive a large sum of money under the Irrigation law. and the Irrigable tracts of the state will be utilized for the horn seekers who have been coming In by the train load dur ing the pant year and have been bunt ing on all of the available land to 1.. had. "The fishing Industry is also In teasing In volume and the coal output continues normal, notwithstanding tne extensive, use of oil In California, One of the huge mines controlled Dy the Southern i'u -inc railroad was closed for a time, and it was feared that It might remain pern, mently Idle, but It has recently been i.ej at Its full capacity in order to m; I the demands of the company which operates it. The mining business ooiiin.iies ac tive, and about the time I b ft in. state one of the smelters located at i.iioma had just closed a contract for ti lling and smelting something like fi tn ti e to seven millions of dollars of go.d 'eaiing ores per year from British Culumh.a. BUSINESS FLOURISHING Thus voi win see tn.it t.u - en erullj throiiilio'it the Pnchio . ,1.i,..-t Is very flourishing and that hue no time to think of tariff revision or seek any change from the present pi "-pei cus conditions. Prosperity seems to h Tease the Republican vote, and our slate made a very gratifying showing at tin- last election. One of our fcongresitieii. Mr. W. L. Jones, carried every county in the j state, and in my own county manv pre- I dncts which have always gone in-nio-l emtio were ovsrlurnetl and It. puhliean ! majorities secured. Out of a total vote of approximately 97.O0J we roil. .1 up a Republican mapority of ' SB.OOn. This will. I believe, compare well in proportion to the vote cast with any state 111 the Union." REMEMBER WASHINGTON. FREDERICKSBURG.
