The Inference follows that Mr. Hill Intends to Increase the number of hia boata and If he doaa thla he will have leaa uaa for hia present ally, the Nippon Yuaen Kalaha Una, which now, by Bail ing In harmony with the Oreat Northern system, la giving a fortnightly service between Seattle and Hongkong. Mr. HU1 doaa not .furnish freight for the klapaneae Vessels, "a each concern main tains separate offlcea In the orient, hence the securing of Mr. Van Buren aa the Oreat Northern agent cannot be re tarded a move to help load the Nlppoa Tuaen Kalaha. He muat Intend to da vote greater time to hia own vessels and steamship men think he muat con template operating a larger number. Increase la Shlpa Xxpeoted. . - If the Oreat Northern Inoreases the number of its own boats it would aeem that the Nippon Tusen Kalaha Is to be given other connections. , This conclu. alon. considered with recent develop ments on tba American aide of the oeean. auggeata that the Nippon Tuaen Kalaha is to be given Portland aa a port of entry. Its officials have expressed themselves 'aa eager to enter hare, and Vlce-Conaul-Oeneral Alba said a ahort time ago that the company would put en a line to Portland if given encourage ment in receiving transcontinental rates. None of the Nippon Tusea Kalaha ves sels would have difficulty entering here apd loading to capacity, and it Is not probable that the Japaneee would ever. and surely not for many rears. Increase the tonnage of He ocean steamships so that the present channel 'of the Colum bia and Willamette would Interfere with free traffic. The positive fact that rapid Improvements will be made in the Portland channel, which will remove every suspicion of difficulty for auch 11 nee aa the Japaneaa maintain, makes Portland Ceapoolallr desirable for their vessela. Japan subsidises' her eteamshlp-lines heavily, ao that they make formidable competitors, . where not excluded . by tramo rates at the port of entry. Japan also has the reputation of operating steamships more efficiently and at lower cost than any other nation,' and always haa built up a great merchant marine fleet Many ataamahlp men are rrank In the foreeaat that Japan will dominate Pacific commerce In another generation. All improves tha prospect for Portland. If unfolding eventa mean that Portland Is to be given a etrong Japanese llna.rwhlch la not opposed by either 'of the great railway systems, and tnat tna little brown men will have free hand in developing commerce for thla port and drawing American trade des tined for the orient through this gate way, local ahlpplng Intareata are confi dent that Portland will be stimulated aa It never haa in the past, while resting In neutral territory between the ports of two intenaely competitive lines.
