The mountain is surrounded by dense forests and a serene lake, which reflects its majestic presence. Mount Rainer is a popular destination for hiking and sightseeing, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding wilderness. "Copyright 1903 by W. P. Romans."

J. M. Colman—A Seattle pioneer of the sixties, is the spirit of the Colman building, one of the most magnificent structures on the Pacific Coast, and barring none, the best patronized by business men for office rooms of all Seattle blocks. Mr. Colman and his two sons are splendid specimens of the "ideal American" and the very best type of Yankee energy. J. M. Colman is now beyond three score and ten years of age, but is still active and in the group on another page of Men Making Seattle he is deserving of a prominent place. * * * Granville Morris Haller—Was the designer and erector of the Haller building, a cut of which appears on another page. The Haller for many years was the leading office building in Seattle and even yet it does not take a back seat. It is modern from top to bottom and every suite of rooms therein are occupied by prominent business or professional men. Though its founder some years ago passed over the "great divide," yet he left a son, Theodore N. Haller, after his own heart, who is following in the footsteps of his father. The Haller would easily sell today for nearly a million dollars. * * * H. F. Grant—Few cities in the United States is better equipped for street railway service than Seattle, which is the work of the Seattle Electric Company. And its vast property interest, which requires over 2,000 men to operate it, is under the sole supervision of H. F. Grant, who is as modest and as unassuming as most men who earns their daily sustenance at twenty-five cents per hour wages. If you have business with Mr. Grant regardless of whom you are you can see him and talk to him. * * * J. W. Clise—Never overlook the name of Mr. Clise when you begin to enumerate the Men Making Seattle. Thousands and thousands of dollars he has been instrumental in bringing to Seattle for investment. He is president of the Washington Trust Company and closely connected with many other enterprises in the city. * * * James P. Gleason is doing much toward interesting outside capital to come to this city. He and his associates are now erecting a skyscraper and they are deeply interested in other financial matters that will bring a great many dollars here for investment. * * * William Pigott—Seattle will see the day, and in the near future at that, when a thousand men will be employed in a rolling mill within her gates, and all through the untiring energy of William Pigott. Each day he gets closer to the goal, when the prediction made above about Seattle's immense rolling mill concern, will be fully realized. * * * Cyrus F. Walker—Splendid pictures of the Puget Mill Company across the Seattle harbor in Kitsap county as well as a number of big Seattle blocks, which were built by the father of the Puget Mill Company, Hon. Cyrus F. Walker, a well known pioneer, are to be found on another page. The Puget Mill Company is under the general supervision of E. G. Ames. Mr. Walker is one of the most popular Puget Sound pioneers that now lives. He came to Seattle in the early sixties and has been hereabouts ever since. John Cort, who is president of the Northwest Theatrical Association, proprietor and lessee of the Grand Opera House and the Seattle Theatre, cuts of both appearing herein, is doing as much as any one else in making Seattle Greater Seattle. Andrew Hemrich. No man in Seattle is more widely known than the president of the Seattle Brewing and Malting Company. The product of no concern in Seattle carry the name and fame of the city to more outside places and foreign ports of the world than the one which he represents. That he is one of those "making Seattle," goes without saying. Stuart—A bird's eye view of Kent, showing the factory and home of the Carnation Cream, located at that place, a Seattle suburb, will be found on another column. This plant was established by Mr. Stuart in 1898 and is turning out on an average of 1,000 cases per day. It is the largest condensed milk plant on the Pacific Coast. Schwabacher Bros. & Co.—Among the pictures of buildings appearing herein will be found that of Schwabacher Bros. & Co., the wholesale grocery firm which has been in existence in the Northwest for half a century. The grocery concern occupies the entire building and the general management of the business is under James S. Goldsmith. * * * Charles H. Frye—The picture of the property of the Frye Company, a small town within itself, is advantageously shown in this number. It is the largest packing house west of the Missouri river and its shipments cover all Alaska and extend to the Orient, besides completely monopolizing the Pacific Coast trade. The general manager of this immense business is Charles H. Frye, who is one of Seattle's most public spirited men. * * * J. M. Frink—No man in Seattle from a business standpoint is more deserving of a seat of honor among the Men Making Seattle than the Hon. J. M. Frink. He is at the head of the Washington Iron Works, which is next in size and output to the plant of Moran Bros. Mr. Frink has been in Seattle a great many years and began here as a school teacher. His plant is easily worth half a million dollars. ```markdown ``` Hon. Will E. Humphrey is a member of the House of Representatives of the United States Congress and is and has been doing yeoman work for Seattle in particular and the Northwest in general since he has been a member of that body. He is among the Men Making Seattle. * * * J. E. Chilberg—The Alaska building, with its fourteen stories and latest improvements from top to bottom, in every respect is an everlasting monument to the pluck and energy of Mr. Chilberg, who made a fortune in Alaska. The Alaska is Seattle's first skyscraper and of course is justly proud of it. * * * J. P. Gleason—The double skyscraper block appearing herein is in fact not a double block, but two blocks built at the same time and in a way connected. The one on the corner is the property of the American Trust Company, of which James P. Gleason is at the head. The completion of this magnificent edifice will be due largely to his individual efforts. * * * Judge Thomas Burke has always taken an active interest in the upbuilding of Seattle and it is he who is building one of the twin skyscrapers. He owns a magnificent six-story block across the street from those which bear his name. He has been one of Seattle's foremost citizens ever since he first moved to the city. He is a retired attorney at law with property holdings at present estimated to be worth two million dollars. J. D. Lowman—Seattle's other skyscraper, a cut of which also appears on another page, is intended to be a living monument to the memory of J. D. Lowman, a Seattle pioneer. Mr. Lowman was formerly a Seattle school teacher. He is yet in the prime of life. His new block is a business investment. * * * James A. Moore—Of Men Making Seattle every true Seattleite will unhesitatingly say James A. Moore is entitled to a seat at the top. He has brought more outside capital to Seattle for investment than any one man except it be one other. He was instrumental in the erection of the Lincoln hotel, the Arcade block, the Easterbrook block, the Lumber Exchange, the remodeling and opening the Hotel Washington, the grading of the old University grounds for the erection of many business blocks and a great city market, the development of Capital Hill. * * * John H. McGraw—At the head of the Chamber of Commerce is the Hon. John H. McGraw, formerly governor of this state, and its affairs are being pushed as perhaps they have never been before. He is and has been for many years deeply interested in the upbuilding of Battle, and it showed the proper spirit in putting him at the head of the city's chief push. John H. McGraw has done as much or more than any other man for the past twenty years toward keeping Seattle to the front. * * * Jacob Furth—In the center of a splendid group of brilliant business men, men who are making Seattle the foremost city on the Pacific Coast, is the picture of the Hon. Jacob Furth, who is at the head of more gigantic Seattle enterprises than any other one man in or out of Seattle, and on account of such can be rightfully termed the Noblest Nestor of them all, when it comes to Men Making Seattle. As president of the Seattle Electric Company he has gained an international reputation. The Puget Sound National bank, of which he is president, does the greatest volume of business of any bank in Seattle. * * * Hon. Samuel H. Piles has just begun a term in the United States senate, which puts him in a position to do Seattle more commercial good than most any one else in the state, and having spent the greater part of his life in Seattle there is no doubt but that he will try to make good. * * * James D. Hoge is at the head of the Union Savings & Trust Company. He formerly occupied a similar position with the First National bank of this city, and, prior to that, was at the head of the Post-Intelligencer. Through these mediums he has been able to bring a great deal of foreign money into Seattle. * * * Lester Turner, president of the First National bank and likewise president of the Seattle Clearing House, is one of the substantial business men of the city, and can be rightfully classed among the Men Making Seattle. * * * A. B. Stewart—At the head of the largest wholesale drug concern in the Northwest, if not on the Pacific Coast, is A. B. Stewart. His firm successfully covers the trade of the Coast as well as a great deal of the Oriental trade, which is growing at an enormous rate. Few men are doing more for Seattle's commercial supremacy than he. * * * Will H. Parry is a Seattle man that has rose rapidly in the scale of public importance. The numerous financial, commercial and industrial enterprises of which he is the head bespeak for themselves why he is placed among the galaxy of business men that are making Seattle. * * * George M. Stewart, who is serving his second term as postmaster of Seattle, shows the popularity of the man, and, in view of the fact that, he is postmaster is of itself sufficient proof of his great importance in making Seattle. *** The bird's eye view of the monster plant of the Moran Bros. on the back page hereof speaks for itself what Robert Moran has done for the upbuilding of Seattle. While Bob Moran has able assistants in the conduct of the plant, in his numerous brothers, yet all admit that it was his brain that gave the City of Seattle this magnificent ship yard plant.

The background is plain and oval-shaped.] DR. F. M. CARROLL Coroner King County. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN KING COUNTY BY THOMAS W. PROSCH King is far in the lead, its creameries and factories turning out 2,000,000 pounds of butter and cheese per annum, while its condensed milk factories send out enormous quantities to eager consumers in many lands. Farming is but little behind manufacturing as a resource. The principal products are hay, oats, hops, vegetables, fruits, flowers, poultry, eggs and domestic animals. Mining is also developed to a substantial degree. For thirty-five years coal has been an article of export, the number of mines increasing continually and their output with them. Eighteen million tons of coal have so far been mined, the mines yielding two and a half million tons in 1903.04. It takes big figures now to give a correct idea of the county and its seat, the city of Seattle. In the city are 150,000 inhabitants; in the county 200,000; in the state 900,000. The trade is partially expressed by the bank clearings of the city, which aggregated $223,000,000 in 1904, and will be fully $260,000,000 in 1905. The federal government did receive in Seattle alone $400,000 through the postoffice in 1904, $400,000 of internal revenue money and $600,000 from the customs house, while the assay office has handled more than $100,000,000 of gold since its establishment in 1898. The real estate transactions in King county aggregated only a few dollars short of twenty millions in 1904, and in 1905 will considerably exceed that figure. Without presenting the figures in detail, and merely to strengthen the assertion that the people and business of the city and county have enormously increased during the past five years it may be said that the bank deposits, bank clearings, real estate transfers, customs house receipts, postoffice receipts, city and county revenues, building operations, school children, directory names, voters, telephones and many other things have doubled in amount or number during that period, and that in some cases the percentage of gain is several hundred instead of one hundred. Even in railroads King county is great, the Great Northern having within its boundaries 48 miles, the Columbia & Puget Sound 51 miles and the Northern Pacific 195 miles, while of cable and electric lines there are 140 miles, or 434 miles in all. Roughly, this is one mile of railway for each $41/2 miles of territory, and one mile for each 460 inhabitants. Prior to 1851 what is now the County of King, in the State of Washington, had been merely visited by men other than the native Indians. When Capt. George Vancouver, the British explorer, was on Puget Sound, in 1792, he spent a number of days in the vicinity, near the present Port Blakely, Port Orchard and the waters further south. Though he made no record of anything hereabouts, he marked the shore line on his map, and indented it properly where the harbor of Seattle is to be found. When the American explorer, Capt. Charles Wilkes, was here, in 1841, he was almost as indifferent to the site of the future great city of the North Pacific Coast as Vancouver before him had been. In the published report in common use no mention is made of the bay and adjacent lands, but the bay appears on the accompanying map. Though there unmarked, it is understood that the name Elliott was given by Wilkes to the bay, as two men of that name were here with him in subordinate capacities. It would be better to discard the name Elliott entirely hereafter as unnecessary, and instead call the water in front of the city Seattle Harbor. The Indian name for all this locality was Duwamish. The West Seattle point was Duwamish Head, the bay was Duwamish, the river and valley were Duwamish and Lake Washington was Duwamish. So also the natives were Duwamish. The first men known to have been here were Michael T. Simmons and his party in 1845, followed about 1850 by Col. I. N. Ebey, Col. B. F. Shaw, Dr. R. N. Lonsdale, Dr. D. S. Maynard, Mr. Luther M. Collins and Mr. J. C. Holgate. The last named contemplated taking a claim near the mouth of Duwamish river, and had he done so would have been the first settler. He delayed, however, until 1853, when he found that the land he wanted had been taken by another and he instead got a place on the east side of the bay. In September, 1851, Luther M. Collins, then living in Nisqually Valley, led a small party of men into the Duwamish Valley, where four of them took the first land claims in the county. They were Collins himself, Jacob Maple, Samuel Maple and Henry VanAsselt. Samuel Maple was the son of Jacob, and VanAsselt became his son-in-law. At the same time these men were locating in the valley, John N. Low, Leander Terry and David T. Denny were camped at Alki Point, but as they did not then and there permanently plant themselves the precedence is due to the Duwamish settlers. In fact, Low moved to Thurston county in a year or two, Terry was succeeded at Alki by his brother Charles, and Denny took a claim later at Lake Union. King county is blessed in many ways. Being on the slope of the Cascade mountains, from 4,000 to 8,000 feet in height, it has an abundance of water supplying the rivers before named, and in addition many lakes, the principal ones being Washington, Samamish, Union and Cedar. From this source the finest drinking water is to be obtained in quantity sufficient for a city greater than London and New York combined. These same waters furnish also enormous power, which is already used to light the towns, move the cars and run the machinery of a great population. Between these streams, lakes and forests there is great sport in fishing and hunting. As if these were not enough, there is magnificent scenery and health resorts of attractive character. The best passes through the mountains are also in King county, and to this fact is owing in large measure the passage of the railroads through them instead of over passes to the north or south. Granite, sandstone, gold, lead, silver, copper and other minerals are found and got out. Taken in all respects there is probably no portion of the United States more resourceful than the state of Washington, and King county is the heart and best part of the state. Even in climate it is unsurpassed. In Seattle the temperature doesn't get below 20 degrees one winter in five, nor above 90 degrees one summer in five. The ordinary extremes are 28 and 88 degrees respectively in winter and summer. It is quite infrequent that in 24 hours there is variation of 20 degrees. The rainfall ranges from 29 inches in a year to 44, averaging 37 in a long term of years. There is more rain and cold on the mountain sides, though, than in the city. There is comparatively little wind, and almost no thunder and lightning. Considering the latitude, between 47 and 48 degrees, no county in the world has a more favored climate than that of King county—so mild, temperate, equable and healthful. While the county seat is the main town, there are others of importance, places, in fact, that would be considered large and of prominence were they not so overshadowed by the greater city. The chief among these other towns is Ballard, with 12,000 inhabitants, Georgetown, Burton, Columbia, West Seattle, Kirkland, Richmond, Renton, Kent, Auburn, Issaquah, Enumclaw, Bothell, Black Diamond, Newcastle, Franklin, North Bend, Humphrey and Alki Point. This section then was in Lewis County, Oregon Territory; in 1852 it was Thurston County, Oregon Territory, and in 1853 King County, Washington Territory. The Oregon Legislature in December, 1852, created a number of new counties, among them Pierce and King. The people had asked for Steilacoom county, and a bill was introduced providing for Buchanan county. While the matter was still pending news reached Salem, the capital, of the election of Franklin Pierce as president, and of William Rufus King as vice president. This news fixed the names of these two counties, Buchanan being changed to King. The following March the officers appointed organized the county government and set the official machinery in motion that has since been working more than fifty-two years. King county as originally created was much larger than at present, and has been diminished in area several times for the benefit of Kitsap, Pierce and Snohomish. As at present constituted it has an area of about 1900 square miles, extending from the summit of the Cascade mountains west to the mid-channel of Puget Sound, and including Vashon Island. Nature blessed this region to a remarkable degree. The general topography is favorable, there being a gentle slope and drainage to the west, with numerous rivers and valleys, including the White, Green, Cedar, Duwamish, Samamisp and Snoqualmie. The trend of these rivers and valleys, with one exception, was all towards the site of the city of Seattle, and this circumstance has in the past materially aided in the growth of the city. The lands generally were covered with timber, which at an early day made this an attractive field to the lumberman, the first steam sawmill on Puget Sound being Yesler's, put up in the winter of 1852-53. This timber resource has been of immense value in the past, and is yet as indicated by the occasional showings put forth in the trade journals and by the Chamber of Commerce. About 300,000,000 feet of lumber are cut per annum in King county and about 1,150,000,000 shingles, being about one-fifth of all the shingles cut in the state and one-eighth of all the lumber. This industry employs eight thousand men in the camps and mills of the county. There is said to be yet standing untouched and unburned about 1,200 square miles of timber land in King county, upon which there is an average of 10,000,000 feet per mile, or 12,000,000,000 feet in all. At the present rate of manufacture of lumber and shingles, equivalent to 400,000,000 feet per annum thirty years will yet be required to exhaust the timber of the county, allowing nothing either for new growth or waste. Though timber is the principal article of manufacture it is by no means the only important one, as bricks, beer, iron, ships, clothing, flour, fish, candy, other foods and many other articles combine with timber to require the labor of 20,000 operatives, receiving monthly wages amounting to $1,350,000, and turning out products valued in the aggregate at $65,000,000. The manufactured goods of King county exceed those of any other three counties in the state combined. In dairy products The future of King county is assured. At one time it was the least of the little group of eight counties in Washington Territory. In the beginning it was slow in progress, owing chiefly to war. Thereafter it moved on with increased and increasing rapidity. One after another it passed the other counties on its way to the front, taking the lead when about thirty years of age. During the years since it has not only lengthened that lead—as evidenced by census, vote, assessment, trade—but the whole world has come to know it, and to acknowledge it with the utmost good feeling. The fifty years past have done much for King county, have given her an average of 4,000 new people each twelvemonth, but the fifty years coming will do infinitely more, for they will add 40,000 per annum, the year 1955 finding in the present limits of the county of King more than 2,000,000 souls, finding Tacoma and Seattle one city and that city Seattle, finding the state of Washington one of the three or four greatest commonwealths of the American Union, and finding Puget Sound the scene of vaster shipping interests and commerce than are to be found today in any part of the world.

There is an abundance of clear, fresh water; the climate is mild and equable, and everything is favorable to the raising of sleek, healthy cattle. Owing to the mildness of the winters, the care of stock is inexpensive.

They also furnish a large part of the meat supply of the Pacific Coast. In fact, there are numerous branches of agricultural industry which may be carried on successfully upon the logged off lands, producing larger returns than in almost any other section of the country, Call on McGraw & Kittinger, rooms 205-6-7-8 Colman Bldg., Seattle, Wash. E. L. Drew became associated with Manager W. M, Russell as his busi- ness partner in 1897, and was active manager of the house for sixteen months during Mr. Russell’s absence in 1893 and 1894. The Third Avenue Theater is conducted as a high class family place of amusement, and it patronized by the best class of theater-goers. The “Third Avenue” is immensely popular with ladies and children who are carefully looked after by the management and absolutely safe from annoyance and insult. During the regular season the Stair & Havlin attractions booked in New York all appear at the Third Avenue, Manager Russell announces that the bookings for the coming season con- tains more new attractions than ever before, and the outlook for the Third Avenue Theater is as favorable as ever, though there is a scheme on foot by a capitalist who does not know the meaning of the word “FAIL” to erect a large modern theater for Managers Russell and Drew in the near future, and in event of the Third avenue regrade ever being consummated the new theater will rapidly become a reality, and it is safe conviction that under the present management of the Third Avenue Theater, the new theater will become an un- qualified success. The Third Avenue Theater, the oldest theater in Seattle, and one of the besr known in the United States, was erected by John F. Cordray and George K. Beatty in the summer of 1890. It was opened about the 1st of November with the Cordray-Wass Stock Co., under the direction of R. E. French, and it was continued as the leading theater of Seattle, devoted mostly to stock, until 1893, when another theater was opened here. The theater came under the present management in 1894, when the policy of the house was changed, and combinations were played. The Third Avenue Theater is the only theater that survived the panic of 1893, an emerged whole, although Manager Russell frequently had many difficulties to overcome to meet current expenses, he never lost faith in Seattle’s future, and his predictions that this would be one of the future great cities of the world has been verified by the splendid pat- ronage accorded the attractions playing at the Third Avenue theater for the past eight or nine years. aac aaa el Friday, Aug. 11, 1905 THIRD AVENUE THEATRE. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN James P. Agnew. In electing Jim Agnew county auditor the voters showed that they desired a man in the position that knew something about the business. Having served for four years as chief deputy under his predecessor he naturally knew more about the business than a stranger. Mr. Agnew is a well-known "young Republican" and will succeed himself in 1906. COUNTY OFFICIALS Kenneth Mackintosh. The prosecuting attorney of King county is doing his first public act. He is a native son of the county and is the son of an old pioneer. His term of office expires in 1906. He being a Republican and the county having a normal Republican majority of 10,000, he will succeed himself. P. J. Smith. The county commissioner from the third commissioner district, P. J. Smith, can truly represent the farmers of his district as he himself is one of the most successful farmers in that section. Mr. Smith has seen a good deal of public life, but amid it all he has never deserted his farm. He retires from the office of county commissioner in 1906 having served two terms in that capacity, the constitutional limit of county officials holding office. He is a Republican in politics. Boyd J. Tallman. For fifteen years Attorney Tallman has been a resident of Seattle and during all that time he has followed his profession. Five years ago he was elected one of the superior court judges of King county and was re-elected last year. He is considered one of the most efficient judges that has ever presided over a branch of the superior court of this state. He is a Republican. Matt. H. Gormley. One of the men who has made his way to the front by hard licks and perseverance is the subject of this brief sketch. He was elected county treasurer last year and though his first term will expire in 1906, he is almost certain of succeeding himself, and he merits it. He is Republican in politics and a member of the state militia. L. C. Smith. The present sheriff of King county is one of the most popular officials at the court house. He was elected last year and will be up for re-election next year. Barring seven years, L. C. Smith has spent his life on a farm and still lives on his farm near Auburn. He is in middle life, a life long Republican and will succeed himself. A. L. Valentine. The present county surveyor of King county has the reputation of being one of the best civil engineers in the county. For a number of years he was chief engineer for the Pacific Coast Company and since leaving that company he has been engaged in doing much important engineering work. He is serving his first term as county surveyor, but will succeed himself in 1906, owing to the fact he belongs to the Republican party. A. W. Frater. To be honored with a seat on the bench is the ambition of pretty nearly every lawyer. While Mr. Frater was a most successful attorney at the bar, yet he had the ambition of going on the bench. He was elected to the position of the superior court judges of King county in 1904 and holds until 1908, when he will doubtless succeed himself for another four years. He is a Republican in politics and is a very popular official among the regular practicing attorneys. Charles Baker. In the roster of county officers there is one "old pioneer", who came to Seattle when it was hardly Seattle and who has staid by it ever since. He has been twice elected county commissioner from the first commissioner district and his term of office expires in 1908. He has always been Republican in politics. Mitchell Gilliam. When the legislature created a new judgeship for King county much friendly rivalry was indulged in by the various aspirants for the appointment at the hands of the governor. So keen was the rivalry that the governor was compelled to make the appointment on merit, and after hearing the pleas of all the applicants he decided on Mr. Gilliam, who at the time was corporation counsel of Seattle. He has made good and stands well with the attorneys of record at the bar. He will be up for election in 1906 and being a Republican will be both nominated and elected practically without opposition. T. P. Storey. In the educational world of the Northwest no one stands higher than Prof. Storey, who, for a number of years was principal of one of Seattle's schools, and it is a deserved reward for him to have been elected superintendent of schools of King county. He was elected in 1904 and his term will expire in 1906, but he is certain of renomination and election, and will then be in line for state superintendent of public instruction. Arthur E. Griffin. Eight years ago Mr. Griffin was nominated for one of the superior court judges by the Republicans and was defeated. He was renominated four years later and was elected. He was renominated and elected four years later and it looks that he will again succeed himself in 1908, all of which without comment show the popularity of the man in the capacity of a judge. John W. Peter. Having been twice elected county assessor John W. Peter will not be a candidate for the same office again. His administration since he has been county assessor has been all and even more than had been expected, in view of the fact that he instituted reforms in the office that has greatly improved its running condition. R. B. Albertson. Judge Albertson served in the capacity of superior court judge for two years by appointment, was nominated and elected in 1904. He has made what a great many of the attorneys pronounce an ideal judge. He is a Republican in politics and having made an acceptable judicial he has a long career in front of him if he desires to take advantage of his opportunity. Dan R. Abrams. Few men in and about the court house has had a longer public career than Dan Abrams. He was twice elected county assessor and served three terms as chief deputy in the same office and is now serving his first term as commissioner from the second commissioner' district. He being a Republican stands a most excellent show of succeeding himself in 1906. ris. He was elected for two years, then for four years and he began to serve the latter term last January. Judge Morris will doubtless spend the balance of his active life on the bench if he so desires, so popular is he both with the attorneys and the people. Dr. Frank M. Carroll. It is said that those professional men, who accept official positions, they do so because they are not proficient enough in their profession to make a living or forge to the front on their merit. No statement could be more erroneous than this when applied to both Dr. Carroll, the county physician, and Kenneth Mackintosh, prosecuting attorney. Dr. Carroll has won his spurs as a physician of high rank and so has Mackintosh as an attorney. Dr. Carroll will succeed himself next year, if he so desires, for he is one of the most popular officials that ever held office in King county. Otto A. Case. When the Republicans nominated and elected Capt. Case to the position of county clerk no more worthy or deserving young man in the whole state could have been honored. He is serving his first term as clerk, which expires next year, but he will be renominated and elected almost without opposition. CREAM OF CREAMS LE LUXURY. STANTAS CONDENSED MILK CO.

Why, do you know those people starting in a small way about five years ago, have reached the proportions of handling in their shop the largest single casting ever made in the Northwest, having made all the castings required for the S. S. Jefferson, the bed of which weighs 22,000 pounds. Their work covers a large field—and their product meets the requirements for which it is intended, from the highest quality of machinery casting to grate bars. This patronage has been the outcome of a policy to make good any work proving to be not up to the standard set for it, thereby securing for themselves the confidence of the people interested in this particular field. That this policy is winning is proven by the fact that their plant has been enlarged several times and their capacity is being called into service now almost to the limit. All things being considered, do you wonder that we answered your question in the way we did. Just tell them what your casting is required for—they'll do the rest. All the railroads in the Pacific Northwest reach Seattle, and the Pacific Coast Company, the Great Northern and Northern Pacific Railway Company have very extensive terminals here. The terminal facilities are being greatly increased by the construction of a new union passenger station, new freight depots and many miles of terminal tracks. The Pacific Coast Company owns and operates railways running from Seattle to the coal fields. The Southern Pacific, Canadian Pacific and Burlington lines reach here over the lines of the other roads. Public Library—The Carnegie Library building, which will be ready for occupancy January first next, promises to be one of the most attractive spots about Greater Seattle. It is invitingly located and erected at a cost of $220,000, with a maintenance fund of $50,000 per annum. The Union Depot—Which, like the library, will be ready for occupancy January first next, will, when completed, be the most magnificent railroad structure on the Pacific Coast. It is at the south entrance of the Seattle tunnel, which cost the Hill system at least a million and a half dollars to complete. ```markdown ``` If you cannot sleep well do not consult a doctor until you have examined your Bed Spring.

LILLY is one of the most progressive as well as one of the most successful men of the Pacific Northwest. It has been a few years, seventeen or eighteen, that Mr. Lilly came to this coast from a small farming town in the state of Illinois, his principal capital being a determination to remain in the far west, study the commercial opportunities and make a place for himself in the business life he should find. From a beginning consisting of a half dozen bales of hay which he sold on commission to owners of express wagons, he has emerged as the sole owner of a business that employs several hundred men and embraces several lines of business connected with products of the soil. His milling operations and his wholesale as well as retail business in farming, garden and lawn supplies, together with his interests in steamboats and dshipping investments, makes him a very striking factor in the growing development of Puget Sound. Mr. Lilly is still a young man. He believes that he has at least thirty-five more years of good hard work left in him, and since he is a man who understands the art of conserving his energies it may well be believed that his own estimate of his future is a correct one.

But it is utterly impossible for every one to See Seattle, and even those who passingly see her do not see her as they would like, and, knowing this, The Seattle Republican has been prompted to issue this special edition, stlying it Greater Seattle or Seattle as she will be in a score or more of years, and dedicating the same to the Lewis and Clark Exposition, in view of the fact that the major part of the visitors to the Exposition will be visitors to Seattle before returning to their homes, and will wish to have something on paper whereby they will be able to show their friends who did not visit the Exposition and who did not have an opportunity to See Seattle, some of the many interesting features of this city which go to prompt the world and its family to desire to See Seattle. Nothing more completely tells the story of Seattle's future greatness than her busy, bustling streets, with her ever restless citizens rushing to and fro, whither duty, engagement or enterprise directs them; her stupendous as well as gigantic public improvements that are being pushed to completion by thousands of workmen and puffing machinery; her beautiful homes and improved streets; her fine parks and surrounding scenery; her commercial enterprise and hustling business men. Many of these things can be seen in this special edition, which, to an extent, will give the reader a brief idea of what Seattle is and what she will be, the Queen City of the Northwest, the Gem of the Pacific Coast, the Diamond of the Puget Sound, the Gateway of the Orient. Seattle will be glad to welcome you to See Seattle before returning to your home. Come and we, her citizens, will be glad to SHOW YOU. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN H. R.

SEE SEATTLE being on every tongue throughout the length and breadth of the domain of the United States, Canada and, almost all Christendom, it is perfectly natural for every person from afar who visits the Lewis and Clark Exposition during its lifetime to want to See Seattle before returning, which accounts for the city at present being overrun with strangers sightseeing on her streets. There is much more in the injunction, See Seattle, than a mere chance catch phrase, which has been ingeniously forced on the public for advertising purposes to boom real estate, for when you will have seen Seattle, the Queen City of the Northwest, a magical city, full of life, activity and commercial enterprise, it will be a most pleasant remembrance to you. Nothing more thoroughly demonstrates this assertion than that she has increased her population, in less than a decade, more than five fold, her population in 1897 being 40,00, is now variously estimated to be between 150,000 and 200,000 souls. Is there any wonder that you are desirous of seeing so wonderful a city? GREATER SEATTLE VOL. XII. NO.

The background features a vast expanse of forest, suggesting that the facility is situated in a rural or semi-urban area. The overall scene conveys a sense of industrial activity in a natural setting. PUGET MILL CO.'S MILLS, PORT GAMBLE, WASHINGTON. The image shows a large industrial facility with multiple buildings, including a large warehouse and several tall chimneys. The facility is situated near a body of water, possibly a river or lake, with a forested area in the background. The buildings are constructed with wooden or metal framework, and the roofs are covered with shingles. The overall appearance suggests that the facility is an industrial plant, likely involved in the production of a commodity such as wood or paper. PUGET MILL CO.'S MILLS, PORT LUDLOW, WASH., UNDER CONSTRUCTION, 1905. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN UND POWER The image shows a large industrial building with a complex layout, featuring multiple levels and large windows. The building is surrounded by a forested area, and there is a road running in front of it. The sky appears to be overcast, and the overall atmosphere is somewhat dark and moody. PUGET SOUND POWER COMPANY Of the Pacific Coast cities, Seattle and Tacoma, situated on Puget Sound, stand out conspicuously as the growing commercial and manufacturing centres. They are also leading ports of export and import of a rapidly increasing foreign trade. Their population, with that of their suburban towns, has increased in the last five years from 130,000 to 265,000. the motive power to serve this large population for the purposes of electric traction, lighting, and manufacturing is furnished by The Seattle Electric Company, the Tacoma Railway & Power Company, and the Puget Sound Electric Railway, the latter operating an interurban third-rail system between the two cities. That the country immediately adjacent to Puget Sound is to be one of the great industrial and commercial centres of the world there is every reason to believe. Geographically, it has an unsurpassed position of industrial and commercial importance, with untold wealth of resources. The future of the Puget Sound country is not entirely a matter of surmise. The past and present give a definite basis for calculation. The Pacific Northwest is no longer an unknown quantity; it has shown what it can do while still almost undeveloped. Young as it is, it has passed through the "boom" stage of a newly opened country, and has come out a prosperous and impressive factor in national life. Within fifty years the State of Washington was a wilderness. Now it has more than three-quarters of a million people, with property of an assessed value of nearly $300,000,000. It was admitted to Statehood barely fifteen years ago, yet already has upward of a hundred flourishing incorporated cities and towns. It first entered into foreign traffic during the last decade, and now requires the largest freight ships ever built for ocean service. The increasing need of additional power to meet the requirements of the fast-growing population throughout the region served led Stone & Webster, of Boston, who manage the properties mentioned, to plan for additional power which should be adequate for their existing plants, as well as for a surplus for commercial purposes. To this end the Puget Sound Power Company was organized in 1902 for the purpose of developing and selling the water power of the Puyallup River, which has its source in the vast glaciers Friday, Aug. 11, 1905 THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN 100 The image shows a large industrial machine with a massive wheel and a series of gears and rollers. It is situated in a spacious industrial building with high ceilings and large windows. The machine appears to be part of a manufacturing or processing facility, possibly involved in the production of cables or similar materials. the mountain-sides, is estimated to average 140 inches per annum. The fields of ice and snow formed by this precipitation move slowly down the mountain-sides to the valleys about its base in the form of glaciers many square miles in extent, filling the valleys to a depth of hundreds of feet. These great masses of ice, increasing during the winter, melt away in the summer in proportion to the heat and dryness of the weather. of Mount Rainier, the highest mountain in the United States. Stone & Webster were the engineers of this undertaking, and the initial generating plant of 20,000 horse power was completed and put in operation in the summer of 1904; and the power generated transmitted electrically to Seattle, Tacoma, and their adjacent towns. The design consists of diverting the Puyallup River just below the junction with the Mowich, and carrying the water by means of a flume ten miles to a reservoir located on a high plateau, and thence discharging by means of steel pipes against wheels in the power-house, under a head of 872 feet; the water wheels so driven being direct connected to electric generators, and the electric power so produced being transmitted at a pressure of 55,000 volts. 48 miles to Seattle, and 32 miles to Tacoma. The power is used for all branches of service—light, power and railway. It supplies the electric railway systems in Seattle and Tacoma, aggregating 168 miles of trolley road; the multiple unit, third-rail line between Seattle and Tacoma; two cable roads, one in Seattle and one in Tacoma; furnishes power for numerous factories, together with the shops of the Northern Pacific Railway and the new pumping plant of the city of Tacoma; and the greater portion of commercial and residence lighting in Seattle and in the towns between Seattle and Tacoma. The Puyallup River has its source in the glaciers of Mount Rainier, the highest mountain in the United States, and one of the great mountain peaks of the world, covering 200 square miles and rising 14,500 feet above the waters of Puget Sound. Above an elevation of 5,000 feet the mountain is covered with snow and ice; and the precipitation, resulting from the contact of the moisture-laden air of the Puget Sound region with the glacial cold of feet above the the mountain is from the contact the glacial cold of The power station at Electron is herewith depicted, by interior and exterior views, the exterior view showing the station in full operation generating current for distribution for the many uses to which electricity is put in Seattle, Tacoma and the intermediate towns and cities.

Scott Benjamin, of the Fifth ward, is serving his third term as councilman. His term of office expires February, 1906. He is a Republican and hopes to succeed himself. He is engaged in the livery and feed stable business. Richard A. Ballinger is Seattle's model mayor. He has filled the office for eighteen months and during that time, with the aid of the chief of police, has driven out the hoodlums that had flocked here and has made Seattle a decent a town as if it were a thousand miles inland. So excellent a mayor has Mr. Ballinger made that the citizens are willing to chip in and increase the salary to $10,000 per year, if he will but accept a renomination and election. He is a Republican and can succeed himself at the expiration of his term if he so desires. He is a practicing attorney and of the firm of Ballinger, Battle & Ronald. Arnold Zbinden, of the Sixth ward, is likewise serving his first term in the council. He was elected February, 1904, and his term of office expires February, 1906. He is engaged in the saloon business. He is a Republican in politics. Theodore M. Daulton, of the Seventh ward, is serving his second term as councilman. His term will expire in 1906. He has been a prominent business man of the city for the past fifteen years, but retired from commercial business a few months ago and is now engaged in mining. He is one of the two Democrats elected to the council in 1904. He will be up for re-election in 1906. John Riplinger is serving his second term as city comptroller. He is a very popular official and, if he would but ask, he could be nominated for mayor at the expiration of his present term in 1906. He has been a resident of Seattle for fifteen years, hailing from Minnesota, and is a Republican in politics. Dr. J. E. Crichton, of the Eighth ward, is serving his seventh term as a member of the council. His present term will expire February, 1906. He is a life-long Republican and will, if he desires, succeed himself. He is a regular practicing physician. Samuel F. Rathbun, the city treasurer, is a very popular official and has the confidence of the entire community. He is a splendid financier and has revolutionized the affairs of his office to the extent that it is now like unto a great banking system. Mr. Rathbun is being frequently spoken of as the next Republican nominee for mayor. His term of office expires in 1906. He was engaged in the real estate business before going into office. W. H. Murphy, of the Ninth ward, is serving his fourth term as a member of the council. His term of office will expire February, 1906. He has always been elected as a Democrat, notwithstanding the fact the ward is overwhelmingly Republican, but he switched his politics last year after he had been elected, and it is barely possible that he will succeed himself once more. He is engaged in the butcher shop and grocery business. He is now a Republican. J. B. Gordon, the police judge, is serving his first term at office holding. It is claimed by the leading attorneys of Seattle that the city never had a more honorable as well as painstaking police judge than John B. Gordon. He is a Republican. * * * Thomas Delaney—Practically a stranger and especially in police circles when he was first appointed chief of police some eighteen months ago, yet Thomas Delaney has given the best general satisfaction of the affairs of that office of any chief that has filled the position since the city has left the thirty thousand mark. The city is as pure as a paradise in comparison to what it was for the five years prior to his taking the office. Frank P. Mullen, councilman-at-large, is serving his first term as councilman, his term being of four years' duration and, being elected in 1902, he will retire in February, 1906, but, owing to the very brilliant record he has made at the head of the street committee, he will doubtless succeed himself. He is engaged in the hotel business and in the general grading business. Mr. Mullen is Republican in politics. David W. Bowen is councilman-at-large and is serving his first term as councilman. His term of office does not expire until February, 1908. He is engaged in the manufacturing business. He is Republican in politics. Scott Calhoun—If there be but one rising young man in all Seattle, Scott Calhoun, corporation counsel, is that one, but there are others. Like the most of the Ballinger administration, every energy is being put forward by Mr. Calhoun to give the city value received for the salary he draws. He is a native son and is trying to hold up the honors of Washington and is succeeding most nobly. His term of office expires in 1906 and, being a Republican, he will succeed himself. Charles H. Burnett, councilman-at-large, is serving his first term as councilman and likewise his first term in any kind of a public office. His term of office does not expire until February, 1908. He is Republican in politics. Councilman Burnett and Corporation Counsel Calhoun are the only ones of the administration who enjoy the distinction of being native sons. He is engaged in the real estate business. R. H. Thomson—The engineering department is and has been under the direction of R. H. Thomson for at least a decade. He has constructed the great water system of the city, superintended the grading of her streets, overlooked the building of the street car lines, directed the building of her immense, sewerage system, constructed the municipal lighting plant and is now in Europe studying the garbage system of those countries. The imprint of no one man in any city either the old or the new world can be found on as many a city's improvements as is that of R. H. Thomson of Seattle. His is an appointive office of three years' duration. He is president of the board of public works. H. P. Rude, councilman-at-large, is serving his fourth term in that capacity, and his term of office, which is a four-year one, will expire February, 1906. He hopes to succeed himself and he probably will, as there seems to be no organized fight against him. He is a tailor by trade and his place of business is in the Alaska block. He is a Republican. L. B. Youngs—The water system has been conducted and overseed by L. B. Youngs for the past seven years. Additional duties have been put on him in the completion of the municipal lighting plant, a general oversight of which having fallen on his shoulders. His office is also appointive. The city owns its own water system. The water is brought from Cedar Lake, in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, by gravitation, and is very soft and pure. The distance from the headworks to the city is a little more than forty miles, over more than twenty-eight miles of which the water is carried in wooden and steel pipes. The daily capacity of the plant is 25,000,000 gallons, and the daily consumption averages about 14,000,000 gallons. Thert are 245 miles of mains in use. The number of accounts on the books of the water department exceeds 18,000, and the receipts for the year 1904 amounted to $435,557.75. The water plant, besides furnishing the consumers with water at a very low price, is providing a source of revenue, which after paying the operating expenses, interest and improvements, together with a substantial payment upon the original cost of the plant, leaves a handsome sum each year as a profit to the city. A. L. Walters stands at the head of the street department and, owing to the fact that there is a vast amount of street building going on, he has work enough to do. He is serving his first term of three years' duration, being appointed by the mayor. Councilmen. Hon. James Conway, the First ward councilman, is serving his first term in that capacity. He, however, has been prominent in public affairs before, as he served two terms as state senator. He is the proprietor of a livery, feed and sales stable on the tide flats. He is a Democrat and hopes to succeed himself in 1906. The city also owns its electrical lighting plant, which furnishes light and power for municipal and other purposes. This plant has just been completed at a cost of about $650,000, including the distributing plant and equipment. The power for this plant is derived from the falls of the Cedar River, in the vicinity of the headworks of the water system. This plant will save a large portion of the sum heretofore paid for lighting purposes by the taxpayers of the city, and will thereby decrease the rate of taxation. J. S. Johnston, of the Second ward, is also serving his first term in the capacity of city councilman, he having been elected in February, 1904, and his term of office expires February, 1906. He is engaged in the real estate and brokerage business. He is a Republican in politics and will doubtless succeed himself. The city street railway system is one of the best in the United States. It covers the city and its suburbs with a network of lines aggregating nearly 120 miles in length, rendering all localities easily accessible. By the charter under which these lines are operated the company is required to give transfrs to all points of intrsection, so that a person can ride from one end of the city to the other for one fare. A line running from Seattle to Tacoma, thirty miles south, opened for business in August, 1902, has proved to be a great success. Two lines run to Renton, thirteen miles southeast, and another line is under construction to Everett, thirty miles north. During the year 1904 the number of passengers carried in the city was 45,340,117. President Hiram C. Gill, of the Third ward, is serving his third term as councilman, and is serving his second term as president of the city council. Mr. Gill is a practicing attorney, being a member of the firm of Hoyt, Gill & Frye. He is a Republican in politics and therefore hopes to succeed himself in 1906. Hon. Irvin T. Cole, of the Fourth ward, is serving his first term as a member of the council. He, prior to his election as councilman, served one term as a member of the legislature of this state. He is rather popular and will make an effort to be nominated for mayor next year at the expiration of his term of office. He is a practicing attorney and of the firm of Smith & Cole. He is a Republican in politics and his term expires in 1906. There are two gas plants in the city under one ownership, which supply a large portion of the light for private buildings and residences. Gas is also used quite extensively as fuel for domestic purposes. Cole.

Prospects of peace between Japan and Russia are far from flattering. Japan may have the art of fighting down to a perfect state, but she is sadly lacking in international diplomacy.

When the penitentiary guards will have been given final walking papers, then the governor should turn his attention to Warden Kees. A dose of the same medicine administered to him would greatly relieve that institution. Tacoma boosters got cold coffee down in Olympia the other day, but what else could the boosters expect, after Tacoma treating Olympia as she did last winter. Tacoma sowed to the wind and now she is reaping a whirlwind, and she has only herself to blame for it. Harvest hands are much needed in Eastern Washington at wages ranging from $3 to $5 per day. Some of the city loafers might side-step for a couple of months and make their winter money, but to do that might look too much like wanting to make an honest living, and it would never do for such an impression to get out among the profesh. --- SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 1905 POLITICAL POT=PIE Gov. Mead has ordered Warden Kees to dismiss those penitentiary employees that were mixed up in that would-be illegal voting that was attempted in Walla Walla at the late city election at that place. The Piemaker believes the stand taken by the governor is unqualifiedly correct. If the governor had gone a step further and had ordered the dismissal of Warden Kees as well, he would have been even more correct, if such a thing be admissible, in addition to what he has ordered done. The Piemaker has no sides to take in this matter, but he believes that Warden Kees was simply keeping up the old Ankeny fight in Walla Walla, and despite the fact he had been given a big job for his faithfulness to Ankeny, did not see fit to let well enough alone. * * * It is announced by one high in authority that, the Great Northern has retired from the political field of this state and in the future, instead of nominating and electing officials of its own brand, will take its medicine the same as the other fellow, and when it does not suit the authorities they will take their troubles to the courts for adjudication. That is easy enough to say, but will it do it? If it does do it, will not the railroad company be left in awful bad shape just now. In view of the fact that, the Great Northern spent $50,000 to elect Mead, it sounds awfully strange for it to announce before its governor has served one of his four-year term that, it is out of politics. But if it is honestly out of politics, a whole lot of politicians will rejoice, for the politics of the state have been sadly stultified by it being in politics. *** The latest news in the Seattle mayoralty 'cast about' is the announcement on the part of Josiah Collins that he would accept the nomination if tendered him by the Republican party.. Mr. Collins has been before the public seeking office before, and the Piemaker has made known that fact to the voters. At this time it is simply handling the announcement as a matter of news, but in a subsequent issue the matter will be given careful and thoughtful consideration. *** The Moore-Gillman street railway franchise has been meat for thought for the daily newspapers of the city for the past week, and the antagonistic positions taken by the members of the city council and Mr. Moore and his associate is being widely discussed and may be an issue in the next municipal campaign. Mr. Moore has withdrawn his proposal to build a street railway system, which leaves the Seattle Electric Company with no opposition and lord of all it surveys. Speaking about politics making strange bedfellows, the following excerpt taken from PRICE FIVE CENTS an eastern exchange goes a long ways toward verifying the oft-repeated assertion : "For a Negro to control political appointments in a metropolitan city is something quite out of the ordinary, but such is the case at Wilmington, Delaware, where Thomas E. Postles, a Negro who was recently elected to the city council on the Republican ticket. With Postles the council is composed of seven Republicans and six Democrats, but Postles is now the 'boss' of the whole bunch. Monday night he bolted the Republican caucus and made a deal with the Democrats, and as a result five of Postles' nominees were elected for city positions, two of whom were Negroes. His son, Joseph E., was made clerk in the city treasurer's office. Geo. Anderson will be bailiff of the council. Postles is determined to make use of the situation of which he is in command, as he is quoted as saying: "I got the whip. Those Republicans and Democrats will never work together. I'm the boss of those white men.'" George Mudgett, who was four times elected treasurer of Spokane county, was in thsi city this week on his way home from the Portland Fair. Mr. Mudgett quit the office last January, and it was generally admitted that, he had given the county the best administration in that capacity that, it had ever had. Recently, however, a grand jury was called by Judge Poindexter to inquire into county affairs, and Mr. Mudgett was summoned before that body and a searching investigation of his affairs gone into, but, according to the Spokane papers, nothing detrimental to his former good name was unearthed. When seen by the Piemaker he had nothing to say, one way or the other, about the indictments found against some of the present county officials for receiving contributions from their deputies. Mr. Mudgett was the candidate on the Democratic ticket last year for state treasurer and made a splendid showing, running ahead of every other candidate on the ticket, with the exception of Hon. George Turner, candidate for governor.

One of the most interesting, as well as one of the most remarkable, things of the present generation is the growth and development of the cities of America, and particularly those located upon the Pacific Coast. Seattle and Los Angeles, located 1,200 miles apart, one in the extreme Northwest and the other in the Southwest, have astonished the world by their progress during the past five or six years. Los Angeles has attracted thousands of permanent residents by virtue of her winter climate, which makes Southern California a Mecca for those who have the means and desire to escape the rigors of the Eastern winter. Seattle, on the other hand, is becoming famous as a summer resort, for during the summer months there is no more delightful place in the world than the Puget Sound country. While the people of other sections of the country are sweltering in the sultry heat of midsummer the fortunate inhabitants of this country are enjoying the bright skies and the cool, gentle, bracing and healthful breezes, which blow from Pacific Ocean, down from the snow-capped mountains and thru forests of evergreen trees. It makes one feel that living is very such a country as this. Here also are all the beauties of the most magnificent scenery the eye; scenery of the greatest variety, from broad, level valley, beautiful farms and gardens, to rolling hills, stretching away to capped mountains. The hills and sides of the mountains are covered green forests, while the higher mountains, whose elevations exo present a dark, rugged, rocky surface, broken by great snow fields in which hundreds of streams have their sources. These crystallizing down the sides of the mountains, join together to form a numrivers, which rush and roar over rocky ledges, around massive long reaches of shingle, in rapids and perpendicular falls, thro and the cool, gentle, bracing and healthful breezes, which blow from the broad Pacific Ocean, down from the snow-capped mountains and through immense forests of evergreen trees.

Seattle is the greatest manufacturing city of the Pacific No for the wholesale and jobbing business of the North Pacific Coast; and by reason of these and many other advantages it has become the metropolis of the great Northwest, and is destined to become the leading commercial city of the Pacific Coast in the near future. The population of Seattle exceeds 160,000, and the adjoining suburbs contain at least 30,000. The area of the city is twenty-eight square miles. If it were compared with the size of other cities of the same class, it would take in suburbs, which would swell the population to at least 190,000.

MEIKLE yons, broad pools, beautiful lakes and estuaries, until they mingle with the waters of Puget Sound. Puget Sound in itself is a beautiful inland sea, extending from the Pacific Ocean more than 200 miles into the very heart of Western Washington. Its shore lines aggregate 1,600 miles in length. It is free from shoals, reefs and hidden obstructions to navigation. It has numerous arms, bays, inlets, straits and harbors. The water is from 60 to 1,000 feet in depth. The rise and fall of the tide is from nine to eighteen feet. It is dotted with beautiful green islands, ranging from a few acres to more than 100 square miles in extent. Two of the counties in Western Washington consist entirely of islands. The diversified shores present a great variety of beautiful scenes, from long, sandy beaches to precipitous cliffs, rising abruptly from the water's edge. As a rule, however, boats can land at any point upon the 1,600 miles of coast. The lands along the shore are covered with forests, except where they have been cleared for agricultural purposes and for the building of cities. Seattle is located in the geographical center of the Puget Sound country on one of the finest harbors in the world. It is upon the shortest line of travel between the United States and the countries of the Orient. It is the center of a rich and productive agricultural region. It is the base of supplies for an extensive mining industry. It is the port in which the main part of the immense and growing business with Alaska is carried on. It is the headquarters of the great lumber manufacturing companies of the State of Washington. It is the home of many of the great fishing companies of the Northwest and Alaska.

A very large portion of the money derived from this source has been invested in property and business enterprises in this city. In addition to the mines of gold and silver, which contribute so largely to Seattle's prosperity, she is the center of a large coal mining industry. All of the good American mines of the Pacific Coast are located within 100 miles of the city, and a large number of them are located within King County. of which Seattle is the county seat. The large and rapid rivers flowing down from the Cascade Mountains furnish an almost unlimited water power, which is being converted into electrical energy and transmitted to the centers of industry in Western Washington, furnishing very cheap power for manufacturing and other enterprises. The electric railway lines and a large number of the mills and factories are operated by this power. Lumbering is one of the chief industries of the State of Washington, and numerous strong lumber companies make Seattle their headquarters and base of operations, contributing largely to the trade of merchandise. The lumber output of the state reaches nearly 1,800,000,000 feet per annum. Seattle is also headquarters for a great many fish companies operating on Puget Sound and the Alaska coast. The product of the salmon canneries alone range from fifteen to twenty million dollars per year, making this one of the most important industries of the Northwest. Seattle is the center of railroad transportation on Puget Sound, as well as the terminal for the Great Northern Steamship Company's lines running to all parts of the world. It is a city of splendid business blocks and beautiful homes. It has splendid schools, and is the seat of the just everything that goes to make up a of 200,000 people.

Friday, Aug. 11, 1905 THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN THE FLOORING GRAND OPERA HOUSE ALASKA BUILDING, Seattle's First Skyscraper. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN SEATTLE THE SOLID By Will H. Parry, President Parry Investment Company, President Seattle & Lake Washington Waterway Company, President Hill Tract Improvement Company; Treasurer Seattle Chamber of Commerce. Seattle, by reason of her geographical position, is the gateway between the United States and the Orient. It is on the shortest line of travel between New York and our new possessions in the Pacific. It is located where all the great transcontinental railways meet the commerce of the world in the Pacific Ocean. It is the home port of James J. Hill's mammoth merchant ships, the largest in the world, and has several other well-established steamship lines to the Orient. Its magnificent harbor is protected from storms and is accessible to the largest vessels that float at all times and at all stages of the tide. It has large and commodious docks and wharves for the accommodation of commerce, and has no burdensome port or wharfage charges. It has J. H. WILL H. PARRY. a foreign commerce which is increasing at the rate of 50 per cent per annum, and now amount to about thirty million dollars. It is the geographical center of the Puget Sound country, a vast region of unequalled natural and commercial resources. It is the center of the local and jobbing trade of the Pacific Northwest. It is the center of the lumber trade of Western Washington, which approximates twenty-five million dollars per annum. It is the headquarters and base of supplies for the salmon and deep sea fisheries, whose products exceed fifteen million dollars per annum. It is the chief manufacturing center of the Pacific Northwest, being second only to San Francisco in the Pacific Coast states. It is the leading shipbuilding point in the Pacific Northwest, one of its several shipyards, that of the Moran Bros. Co., being acknowledged by experts to be the best equipped and arranged plant in the country, and equal to any contract. This plant is now successfully completing one of the largest battleships ever constructed. Seattle is also the base of supplies for the Puget Sound Navy Yard, which has the best naval drydock on the Pacific Coast, and is a naval center. This city has a large share of the government transport business, and this gives promise of being increased by reason of the superior natural advantages of the port, the shortness of the route and the excellence of its shipping facilities. The merchants of Seattle control the trade of Alaska and the Yukon territory, which runs into many millions, and is increasing annually. The assay office, located in Seattle, receive a very large proportion of the wealth of Alaska and British Columbia mines. Seattle is the center of the coal mining district of Washington, which produces about thirty million tons of coal annually. Large coal measures in this vicinity have not yet been developed, and the production of coal will increase annually. Seattle is the center of a largely developed agricultural section, in which fortunes are made in diversified farming, dairying and gardening. Ten acres, properly tilled, will support a family in many parts of this favored section. This city is the center of the flour milling industry of the Northwest. It will soon be the center of a great iron and steel industry, which is now being established. It has behind it great mining resources, which are now developed, and which are of wide range of wealth and utility. It has enough timber behind it to run the lumber and shingle mills at their full capacity for more than a century. It has the prosperous cities of Tacoma, Everett, Bellingham, Port Townsend, Olympia and many smalltr cities to draw trade from. It has many wonderful water powers near it, several of which have already been developed by private and municipal enterprise, and which furnish ample power, insuring competition in lighting and in power, and consequent lower rates. The municipality owns a complete gravity of water system, bringing pure, cold water from the mountains, and distributing it to its inhabitants at reasonable rates. It has an excellent system of street railways, with universal transfers, rendering all portions of the city easily accessible, permitting the extension of urban population to its utmost limits, and affording facilities to a large suburban population in the metropolitan district. Another comprehensive system of street railways is now being planned by enterprising Seattle men. Seattle is bounded on the east by Lake Washington, whose surface is sixteen feet above the Sound level, with sixty square miles of water area and more than fifty miles of shore line, which, when connected with Puget Sound by the canal to be built by the government, and which will surely be constructed, will furnish the greatest fresh water harbor in the world. Seattle is the metropolis of the largest of states in the Union in natural resources. Its population has more than doubled during the past five years, and now exceeds one hundred and fifty thousand, and, including its suburbs, which will soon be annexed, one hundred and seventy thousand. It has advanced from the thirty-seventh city in size in the United States to the twenty-seventh position in five years, and it is safe to predict that by the census of 1910 this city will be in the twentieth place. Its growth is not because of a boom, but as the result of natural development, and it will therefore continue. Statistics of the Postoffice Department, recently published, show that the country back of Seattle, and directly tributary to it, is growing at even a greater rate than Seattle itself. This city is growing faster in proportion to its population than any other city on the American continent. It is the chief financial center of the Pacific Northwest, its bank deposits having increased 1500 per cent and its clearances 1,000 per cent during the past ten years. Commerce, manufactures, trade and development of resources are keeping pace with the population. Labor, both skilled and unskilled, bring good returns, and property investments yield large revenues. Seattle has excellent public and private schools. It is the seat of the University of Washington, which is destined to become one of the leading educational institutions of the country, having a liberal endowment from the public lands. The city has an excellent public library, which will soon be housed in a $250,000 building, through the munificence of Andrew Carnegie, who "admires the pluck of Seattle." Nearly every known denomination of religion is represented in the 120 church of the city. The large army post within the city limits is destined to become a center of military operations in the Northwest. The city has a complete sewerage system, and its sanitary condition is good, drainage being facilitated by the topography, and the death rate of Seattle is lower than that of any other city of its size in the United States. It has well-paved business and residence streets and large park areas, which are now being developed by a board compose dof leading citizens. The city is now expending between two and three million dollars annually in public improvements. The great railway companies are also expending millions in terminal improvements, including a tunnel under the city and the construction of a magnificent union station. Seattle has the most delightful surroundings from a scenic standpoint, the beauty of the mountains, lakes, rivers and the Sound, as seen from its many view points, being unexcelled in any part of the world. Its climate is mild and healthful and equitable in subject to extremes of heat or cold, and absolutely free from malaria. It is surrounded by fields and forests, which furnish abundant game for the sportsmen. It has rivers, streams and lakes on every side, which teem with food and game fish, while the waters of Puget Sound abound in edible shell and other fish of almost innumerable varieties. Its population, cosmopolitan in character, and consisting of the most aggressive and progressive people on the American continent, makes the city teem with life and enterprise, and its business men, standing together and working for the advancement of the material interests of their city, have made "Seattle spirit" proverbial. The City of Seattle is so situated that no city can be located further west to draw away its trade. It is the Ultima Thule of America. The combination of facts above set forth cannot be found in any other city in the world. WILL H. PARRY SEATTLE CLEARING HOUSE REPORTS 1904 and 1905. The net gain of $28, 908,591.21 in 1905 over 1904 represents an increase of nearly 30 per cent. This shows in a very marked way the steady growth of business in Seattle and also to a large degree reflects the business growth of the Pacific Northwest, as an increase or decrease of business in the Northwest soon makes itself felt in Seattle. The clearings for the last month were more than they were for the whole year of 1895, when there were fifteen banks members of the clearing house. There are now twelve banks in Seattle clearing through the clearing house. The larger the number of banks and the more evenly the business is distributed among those banks, the more the clearing house will show the volume of business transacted in a city. There are now four banks and trust companies in Seattle which do not clear directly through the clearing house. If the large shipments of gold from Alaska appeared in the clearing house returns, the clearings would be even much larger. However, most of the gold coming from Alaska is consigned to one of the banks here and taken to the assay office and payment received by draft on the assistant treasurer of the United States in New York. Some days ago the Seattle postoffice received a draft of $95,000 drawn by the bank at Fairbanks on a Seattle bank, in payment of money orders issued by the Fairbanks postoffice. This is a new way for the Alaska miners to remit to Seattle for their gold dust. [Picture of a man in a dark suit with a mustache.] LESTER TURNER, President Seattle Clearing House. 1904. 1905.
