Default Questions about KHQM approach plate

I know there's a lot of smart guys out there, so maybe somebody can answer some questions. I was looking at the KHQM (Hoquiam, WA) ILS approach plate, and had the following questions:

(1) Why are the minimums for the straight-in ILS 24 approach higher than the minimums for the straight-in LOC only approach? (800 and 2 for the ILS and 600 and 3/4 for the LOC only appch)

(2) What do the distance references for the transitions from the ULESS and the SOUPY IAF's refer to? [The notations show 183 degrees (7.3) and LOC (4.5) from ULESS; and 286 degrees (5.9) and LOC (4.5) from SOUPY. ]

Here's the link for the approach plate, if I copied it correctly.
