A THRIVING TOWN THAT HAS
SUPERIOR ADVANTAGES.

Editorial Übservmions.
La Games is a thriving town, con
taining already nearly a thousand
inhabitants. situated on the Colum
bia River. within the boundaries of
Washington Territoryeabou_t thirty
miles from Portland. Or., -by water,
and fourteen miles from Vancouver.
Its advantages seem to have been
first perceived (or at least first acted
gpon) by Mr. D. H. Stearns, five
years ago. Mr. swims is a very
enterprising, energe ic man, with
‘more than the average brightness of
really bright newspaper publishers—
to which class he belonged for many
years. He was formerly publisher
of the Portland Daily Bee, and af—
terwards editor of the Telegram of
that city. Perceiving the natural
advantages of the point to which we
desire to call special attention, he
induced Henry L. Pittock and others‘
of Portland to back him financiallyl
in purchasing land and laying out a‘
town there—the main object of the-l
monied men; however, being’ at that‘
time to erect a large paper mill.
The land was bought up for a mile
back from the river, and five miles
in length.
THE TOWN
Occupies a beautiful and exceed—
ingly advantageous location. having
a level frontage, sulficiently elevate
ed above the river to be safe
from inundation, and amply large
for business purposes. Rising in
a semicircular amphitheatre at the
rear of the business part are a series
of terraced benches, admirably titted
for dwellings and showy public
buildings—while a splendid head.-
land on one side presents a most
magnificent prominence for any
great building or structure that may
eventually ornament its heights.
Tablelands reach far into the in
terior from this elevation, extending
far out in all directions, covered by,
prosperous farming communities. A‘
stream of pure water courses through ‘
the townsite, supplying every need;
inthat. direction, and a beautiful}
fresh water lake on the uplands, hm!
ginning abouts mile back and ex~‘
tending nearly two miles, furnishes}
a natural location for one of the fine
est summer resorts in all this won~
derfully blest Pacific Northwest.
Among the business institutions
dfthe town, We notice already a
creditable bank (of which Mr.
Stearns is president), a flouting mill,
ssaw mill, 3 hotel, livery stable.
drug store. two mercantile establish
ments, a newspaper oflice: and last
but most important, a paper mill.
The
u onus Lama co. :
Is emceied as follows: E. I. Pit— 1
tock, President; Wm. McFall. Truss l
tee; D. H. Stearns, Supt. Mi . I
Stearns gives the saw mill a large a
share of his attention. It is located ,
back near the lake, from which it re- ‘
ceivee water power and logs for the {
manufacture of its product. The ‘
urn mu. ,
Is located in a building 80x290 feet ‘
in size, near the river side, and built :
of atone for its basement story. with
a brick superstructure. The first
mill was in a wooden building, but
was completely destroyed, by fire——
seriously crippling the owners finan
cially. So great was their energy
and thrift, however. that they have
‘rebuilt the mill in a more enduring
‘atructure, and have stocked it with
the finest machinery to be had. An
expert, Tuerck by name, was
brought over from Germany specials.
ly to take charge of the enterprise,
and under his skillful management
it is now a splendid property.
Through the kindness of Mr. Bur
ton. who has charge of the local com
pany’s land oflice, we had an oppor
tunity to make a thorough inspec
tion of the paper mill, and witness
the interesting process by which pa
per ie made. The vast machinery of
the mill is propelled by water power
and steam together—aggregating I.
force of about BOO—horse power. It
furnishes employment altogether for
about 110 persons, runs night and
day except Sunday, and has a pay
roll of about. $4,000 per month. The
money invested in the plant is about
sl2s,ooo—one of its machines cost.-
ing $30,000. We saw the cotton
wood logs taken in, cut and split in
to suitable sized pieces. trimmed of
their bark and superfluous or de-:
cayed portions, and placed in the
grinding machines which reduce
them to pulp. There are two of
these grinding machines, of the Bus
set. make, each having a pair of 30~
inch stones. They grind up 7% tons
of wood per day. The pulp comes
out reduced to about the consistency
of buttermilk. only darker in color.
It is pumped into the upper story,
whore it is put through another pro:

cess in large vats. and is mixed with
about one~tenth its bulk of pulp
made from rags. It is then carried
to another apartment where it
passes through the machine which
fashions it with exquisi'o precision
and nicety into a continuous sheet of
paper having any width and weight
desired. This sheet is cut by ma
chinery into required sizes, trimmed,
and the Waste carried back to he
made over. while the finished proé
,duct is folded and made up ”110‘
roams and bundles {or market. Au~
other department of the mill is used
for making paper from straw. About
1.800 tons of straw are used annually,
furnishing nmarket for that article
produced ‘by local farmers. The
straw is placed in large, deep vats.
sprinkled with lime and steadied or,
boiled for4B hours, after which‘jti
goes through machines similar to i
threshing cylinders, oniy with finer
teeth. The pulp produced from this
grinding is l at through a bleaching
and refining process, and the machine 3
‘ which converts it into paper turns out i
i2BO reams per day. All kinds of rags
are used. no matter what their toxt-~
are or color, hemp, jute, old rope, or
any such substance. together with
any old paper. The rags are thor—
oughly beaten by machinery, after
which they are put into an upright
rotary boiler where they are slowly
steamed under heavy pressure for 12
hours; This process separates every
bit of dirt of coloring matter, and
renders the rage fit for the next: pro
cess which makes pulp of them.
Then they are bleached. every par
ticle of colloring matter taken out of
them, and the water is squeezed out i
of the pulp. After passing through
this process the pulp looks something
like dry snow, but on examination is
found to be more like lint. It is
then mixed with the wood pulp, in
proportion as heretofore indicated.
The naner mill is: near Hm stnnmnr
landing, which is an arm or lagoon
from the river.
The streets of the town are laid
out with due regard to future con
venience. and land is sold to anyone
who desires it, at reasonable prices——
particular advantages being secured
by those who will undertake to make
homes and improvements. The aim
is to build up a substantial, prosper
ous, manufacturing tows. Good
business lots can still be secured for
S3OO to SSOO each. A creditable pub
lic school is maintained, and we no~
ticed two fine looking churches.
The matter which interested as moat,
however, was the fact that a franchise
-had been secured for a
RAILROAD names
across the river at this point. This
is more significant from the fact that
here is the only point—from Astoria
to The Dallas—where it is really
practicable to bridge the river. The
Northern Pacific R. R. 00. operates
its road via Kalama with a transfer
boat, necessitating not only delay and
heavy expense, but liable to freeze
ups and blockade of travel every win
ter. At La Camas there is——lst, a
rocky bottom; 2nd, an island in the
river, making two short spans in»
stead of one long one. Unquestion—
ably this is the point where the
“Port Townsend Southern" should
cross the Columbia river and be ex
tended into Portland. It is but little
out of a direct line between Port
Townsend and Portland, and a road
extending through it would traverse a
rich farming country all the way. In
fact we do not believe there is ten
miles of the whole line but would pay
its own expense of operation, to say
nothing of through business. It must
be apparent that Le Games is destin
ed to become a fine city. and that in
the Very near future. If the West side
railroad enterprise were extended on 1
from here through Wahkiakum and‘
Klickitet counties, it could be pushed
into the most ferlile portion of East~
ern Washington, and the wheat pro
duct of the vast inland empirecould
be brought by a very direct and easy
grade to Port Townsend for ship
ment. Mr. Miles 0. Moore of Walla
Walla. a gentleman who has had ex
tensive experience in railroad build~
ing in our Territory, and whose ac
quantance we pleasant] y renewed
last week, thinks that the outlet in- ‘
dicated herein is the natural outlet‘
for the greater part of Eastern
Washington’s productions.
NOW the question arises: Are not.
these pointers worthy of investiga
tion! Prompt action and energetic
management will turn them to some—
body’s profit.
. The vice-president of the Ryan
Smelter Company at Tacoma says
‘thnt the smelter will be ready for
work by first of March.
Experts claim seasickness can be
regulated by a system of breathing.
One must sit still and breathe regu‘a
larly and freely according to a fixed
plan: Time your breathing to the
upward and downward motion of the
boat. As the boat falls there should
be a full expiration, and as the boat
begins to rise start on an inspiration,
en ing just as the boat starts to
drop. tis an easy plan to follow and
makes you laugh at the idea of being
sick, unless you have a stomach so
weak as to be affected by the sway
ing of a train or boat.
1 Seattle vs. Port Townsend.
The Coast Seaman’s Union agent
at Seattle is out with a statement it
yesterday’s I’~l of that city, intend
ed eVidently to influence Judgc
Boyle in deciding the case of rioting
which occurred in Port Townsend
last May when a sailor who had
Signed to go on board the ship Suma
tra was forcibly taken from the own
ers‘ agenL and was forcibly prevent
ed against his will from going on
board. In the course of his inter
view. this Seattle agent takes occa
sion to cast severe reflections upon
I-‘(th Thwnsend shipping agents and
Port Townsend justice. He charges
among other things that Judge Van
Bokkelen (before whom the matter
came for hearing) and Henry Roths—
child, and “a few others,” have things
all their own way in Port Townsend;
that union men are rictous in Port
Townsend because they are net treat~
ed fairly, while union men in Seatte
are peaceable because they get well
treated. etc. Yet he proceeds to
show that the whole trouble origi—
nated in Seattle, and because ofa
disagreement. between the Captain of
the Sumatra and a crew shipped
in Seattle; that there was in fact no
riot at Port Townsend. and that the
trouble really occurred because
somebody cheered when the union
sailors succeeded in preventing sail—
or Jackson from going aboard the
vessel. He abuses Judge Van Bok
kelen for placing these riotous sail
ors under bonds of S3OO each, yet
thinks he should have placed Mr. W-
J. Jones under still heavier bonds
because he would not peaceably sub-i
wit to the outrage against justice:
perpetrated by the meters. Judge
Boyle has the case under advise
ment. and we shall be very much
surprised if he permits this attempt—
ted newspaper trial of its merits to
influence his decision. Such at—
tempted interference with the course
of judicial action is always out of
place and improper. This Seattle
seamen’s agent, McLarcn by name.
talks like a queen city real estate
boomer. anxious to prove the superi
ority and fairness of Seattle people
over those of Port Townsend—yet
hardly knowing how to do it. If he
had a good cause of complaint, which
he has not. his blundering logic
would defeat the object sought to be
gained. His thrusts at Port Town—
send are as lame and uniust as they
are ill-natured.
The simple fact is that the rights
of a certain American citizen named
Jackson were unlawfully and riot
iously interferred with. After he
had entered into a written agree
ment to perform certain labor on
board the ship Sumatra, for a speci—
fied compensation. he was forcibly
and riotiously detained from the per~
formance of his contract. The fact
that the mob who prevented him
from going on board the vessel were
union sailors, and that their sole
cause of grievance was that his com-__
pensation was not as high as the
rates established by their union,
gave them no special immunity from
the consequences of lawless conduct.
Mr. Jones’ display of a pistol in the
crowd, even for the purpose of pre—
venting a lawless action, laid him li
able—and it was proper that what»
ever circumstances in extenuation or
justification of his not there might
he should be inguired into by judicial
authority. An so, Judge Van
Bokkelen placed all concerned under
bonds to answer before the district
court. The majesty of the law was
vindicated, with reference to both
sides in the controvesy- and that is all
there is about the matter. J udge Van
Bokk’elen seems to have comprehend
ed the gravity of the situation. and to
have shown no favor on either side.
SLOOP ADVENTURE
Interest Increasing over Her Non-
Appearance.
‘ No tidings have as yet arrived con
‘ cerning the little sloop Adventurer,
which sailed for Northern Alaska
last spring. News came down from
the Adventurer per United States
steamer Thetis, on the 28th of Sep
tember, she being at that date at
Kodiac and reparing to sail for
home. J. (‘3). Howard, business
manager of the Sitka, Alaska, Free
Press, was with tho Adventurer. It
is now believed that the three navi
gators, Reea‘, Sullivan and Howard,
intend passing the winter in North
ern Alaska waters. The Adventurer
left Seattle early in the spring on a
trading cruiae. _ _ a
LATER: Since the above matter
was written. Captain Manning. uncle
of S. G. Reed. owner of the sloop,
showed to a Times regerter a letter
dated Kodiac, Alas a, Sept. 14th,
and addressed toS. G. Reed, Seattle.
‘ The letter was written by J. B. Bel.
V lon, agent of the Alaska Commercial
Company, at their cannery, near
Kodiac.
The writer had been invited on
board the Adventurer previous to
her departure from Kadive for Se—
attle, but was unable to leave his
business to comply. He remarks
that he witnessed the Adventurer
hoisting her flag on leavxng and re
grets bein unable to see Mr. Reed
before he feft.
From this it. is known that the
Adventurer sailed as expected on
September let for Seattle. She did
not touch at Sitka, so that grave
“”5391 entertained that she r:nay
possibly have become submerged in
the heavy seas along the coast.
Among other things the agent speaks
of another trading cruise to be
made next summer by the Adventur
er.
The Dominion Cabinet at a meet
ing on Saturday decided to invitefitbe
; Australian and New Zealand Gov
‘ ernments to send delegates to Otta
wa at. an early date to consider the
matter of the proposed cable from
New Zealand to British’ Columbia
The design is to direct the treflic and
traval from Australia which goes new
entirely via San Francisco to Van
couver, and thence over the Canadian
Pacific Railway. and to open up a
market for Canadian manufactures,
uow possessed almost exclusively, so
far as this Continent is concerned,
by the United States.
Munday Offered the Collectorship.
Nov. 16th the following telegram
Was sent from \Vashington:
Hon. Chas. F. Monday. Seattle:
It is desired to appoint you collect
or of customs for the district of Pu
get Sound vice Q. A. Brooks suspend
ed. Will you accept? Answer.
0. S. FAIRCHILD,
Secretary Treasury.
The reply was:
SEATTLE, W. T., Nov. 17.
Hon. Sec. Treasury. “'ashington:
I cannot accept for reasons given
in my letter of this date.
C. F. Muxmr.
Mr. Monday was asked by a Times
reporter why he declined, and said he
had several reasons, not the least
among them being that he had rec—
ommended friends for the position,
and it would savor too much of so!
fish interest for him to step in. They ‘
would also have grounds for accusing 1
him of securing the oflice for himself 1
while ostgnsibiy working in their in—
teresf,
Further he stated that for. some
time he had been engaged with oth
crs in stirring up things in the cus~
tom house and aiding in ferreting out
abuses. Should he accept, his pred
ecessors in the office might accuse
him, and apparently rightfully. With
ending to oust them in order to get in
himself.
“There are other reasons.” said he.
“but these are enough of themselves ‘
to induce me to decline the offer.”
_ The ofiice of Collector of Customs
is,_perhaps. the most important, no
litically, in the Territory. There Eire
lthirty-five appointments which the
collector has sole control of, and all .
of them goodsalaried, and might be .
used to good political advantage. 1.
TLe salary of the oflicer in this dis»— ‘
trict is SI,OOO annually and fees not '
in excess of $2,000. There is little
doubt that by the time of the incom ‘
ing administration , the salary will be
increased to amount to $4,000 or
$5,000. The establishment of bonded
warehouses. which are sure to be i
made, will, of themselves, increase ,
the emoluments to the figures named.
———~oC«——- f
Puget Sound and Free Trade. 1
The satisfaction with the outcome 1
of the election is very pronounced in .
lumber circles out in the Puget Sound i
regions. Free trade was more feared .
out that way than anywhere else. It <
is little more than an imaginary line }
which divided the pins in British ‘
America from that in Washington I
Territory. The conditions have for i
some time on both sides of the line 5
been the same. Lumber can be made l
on the Canadian side quite as cheap- }
ly as on the American side, and there 1
is no difference in the value of the }
stumpage except such as the tariff 1
makes. Since the passage of the I
anti—Chinese act, however, the advant- .
age in tne matter of laboris on the :
side of the mill men in British 00- l
lumbia. They can have recourse to
cheap Chinese labor in some branches ‘
of their operations. while their comu
petitors on the American side are .
precluded from takin advanta eof
the Chinese labor. which would all
too gladly come to our shores. Un
der these circumstances free lumber I
would have been disastrous to the .
Washington Territory lumbermen.
It. woul have given the industry out ‘
there a black eye. Capital all along 5
has been slow in finding investment 1
out in that quarter, because the I
country was menaced by free trade. ‘
But this danger seems to have pass- I
ed. In the meantime had the result ,7
of the late election been difl'erent, 1
and the prospects become more im- }
minent for free lumber, it must inev- 1
itable have had adepressing influ
ence upon lumbering operations on
the Pacific Coast. The recent break f
in prices out that way indicates that
the business has grown beyond the
point where it can be successfully
controlled by any trust or combina
ation. There is even evidence that ‘
production has o'utrun consumption. ;
and some demoralizatiorghas result~ 1
ed. Of course this con ition is not 5
likely to long exist. The Puget ‘
Sound lumber is constantly finding 1
new fields, and the timber is located ‘
conti none to a region in which j
popufition is increasing rapidly. ‘.
There will be market enough in time,
and that time is not very ar away—
but the whole lumber fraternity out
that way have reason to congratulate
themselves that the tarifi is not like:-
ly to materially change the existing
order of things.—Lumberman.
Beecher‘s Removal.
The Seattle Times says that the
report of Beecher’s resignation is
believed by U. S. ofiicials in Seattle,
although there has as yet been no
ofiicial notification. The reports
published first in the Times of yes
terday of the resignation under re~
nest from the president. of H. Ij‘.
. gloeecher. special treasury agent, is
believed by some of the U. S. ofiicials
s here, although no notification ofii
l cially has ever reached here. _Mr.
7 Munday, in speaking of it, said he
heard it first after arriving here.
I Beecher. he knew. went to ’Frisco
with his family, who will spend the
3 winter there, on a thirty-day leave
. ot absence. While he would not ac
| cept the report as true, there were
3 good reasons for believmg it... -
7 “Under tilee'xisting condition ‘of
things," said Mr. Munday. “Beech
er’a days of usefulness, if he ever had
any. on Puget Sound are over. There
has been an efi‘ort to have him trans
fared to some other district, and
this may have been done.”
“Did not the president wish his
aid and presence in the prosecution
of the Gardner cases, and is not
this the direct cause of his removal,
if he has been removed?” was asked.
“I don’t think 80.” said Mr. Mun—
lday. “We have never tried to se~
cure him as a witness in those cases
and I don’t think the government
cared for his testimony.”
as opmxou.
“I feel confident,” said a promi
nent gentleman today, “that the re
port of Beecher’s dismissal is correct,
and that it grew out of Beecher-’5
dilly— dallyingactione in regard to
the Gardner tnal.”
