Backing Grows for Erastus Brainerd to Buy Seattle Paper
In Seattle Erastus Brainerd, former Seattle Post-Intelligencer editor, gains support from business friends that may secure his purchase of the paper. State Board of Control chair E D Cowan cites a $24,000 profit from the prison jute mill via grain bag price adjustments under a new law. Spokane reports 150 rail cars of eggs and millions in poultry and egg output. A Woodland farmer yields 45 tons of rhubarb from one acre netting $600. In Tacoma, two plainclothes men wagered with a bar tap, prompting an anti treating arrest as riot followed by officers. Mrs. Helen Pitcher of Orondo survives after wrestling a rattlesnake from her arm and saving her life.
