Prof. Robb, formerly of this place, has been appointed to a place in the State Reform School, ami the Capital Journal remarks as follows: “With the installation of Prof Robb as principal of the State Reform school, probadly all efforts at changes in the management of the head of the institu tion will cease. The whirligig of poli tics brings men around together in a funny way When ‘Bob’ Hendricks was paying his compliments to Rev. Irwin and his man Robb, when they were in charge of the Chemawa Indian school, the editor of the Statesman little thought 11 win would ever he his super ior and as state superintendent would put Rohh in as chief man under “Bob” at the reform school. Politics are very funny sometimes and the man we least Blink of bobs up serenely over our heads. ,*Bob is very glad to have Robb where he is because Mr. Irwin really wanted him to have the first place but couldn’t quite make it and like a wise politician compromised on the next best thing for his friend Robb* The hitter gentleman made an excellent disciplinarian over Indian hoys and will bo able to handle American boys, who have a little of the Indian in their make up, equally well. “Bob’’ Hendricks learned his trade as printer on the old Eugene State Journal when he and Kincaid used to set all the type and print the paper, ami now that Kincaid is secretary of state he has a little of the milk of human kindness in him and does not like to semi his for mer “devil’’ to the devil politically »it the first opportunity. “Bob” Hend ricks also has the warm personal friend ship of Governor Lord and holds the trump card in the game of politics at present, ami his friends are all glad that no one has a trump over his. The ap pointment is made from year to year, and Boh is there like the rest of the hoys entirely on his good behavior.” The following items were clipped from the l’uget Sound Luniherinan : The demand for lumber from South Africa shows no signs of quieting but is on the increase. Chile is also becoming a good market for l’uget Sound lumber. Die scientific name of the red cedar is thuya gigantic, but the fact doesn’t make any difference with the price of shingles. The prices rule too low for real solid comfort in hot weather. The John L Harris mill at South Bend is turning out an order for 1,000,- 000 h et of dressed spruce for an eastern piano manufactory. The saw mill is running time and a quarter and the planing mill double time. The Nelson shingle mill, wit's a daily cut of 125,000 shingles, and that of the Pacific Lumber Ac Manufacturing Co., with a cut of 100,0 K), are both running full time in Anacortes The two mills employ about 50 men The white pine lumber manufacturers of the Mississippi ami Wiiconsin valleys got. a move on lhemselvek and advanced prices 50 cents a thousand . The same results are to follow on the west coast hut our lumber inanufatcurers are not inclined to he so modest as to stop at an advance of 50 cents, though it might be a starter. The allusion last month in the Puget Sound Lumberman to a cedar stump near Elma that measures 15 feet in di ameter recalls the fact that a hollow ce llar tree near Kumas lake, northwest of Seattle, is 23 feet in the clear on the ground and 15 feet in diameter 20 feet above the ground It is said that one of the largest cedars known in Wash ington stood near Snohomish. A pho tograph of its stump shows five homes abreast three feet apart and thirty men standing on it. ('an anyone heat tins on a tree story? The meeting is open for remarks I'lie log question is becoming a serious problem. J. II. Irvine, a leading logger of Snohomish county, was in Tacoma this week, a.id in conversation predicted a log famine in th«* near inline if the present demand and conditions con tinue A scarcity of log* now exists This has been caused largely by low prices which wave Imnkrupted so many and com pel led the camps to shut down. Then the demand for logs is now great, particularly with the large mills Port Blakely is cutting about 600,00» feet per day On the Mth of this month 18 ves sels were at this mill waiting their turn to load ami ten vessels at the same time were being loaded at the Tacoma mill The other large mills are also rushed with orders. All this means theslaugh- I tering of mi immense amount of logs each month.
