Sc EMIAHM0O.

This is the most northern town in this
Territory, being within one mile of the
line. Across the bay from the steamboat
landing some six or eight feet above the
high tide mark and a couple OF rods
back from the shore is an iron monu-
nent some feet high, Al inches square
at the top and about G inches square at
the base, which is put there to designate
the boundary line between the two
Governments. The east and west sides
are plain; on the north side are the
words: "Treaty of WashingtOn;" on
the south side are the worGs: June Is,
1916"
This monument is surrounded by an
enclosure about 8 feet square of heavy
logs. About feet east Of this is
post about 2i feet high and inches
square. This post faces the ne., nw.,sw,
and se., respectively. The sw. and SC.
sides are plain. On the NV. side are the
surveyors marks indicating it to lie the
Sc. corner of township 1. On the ne.
side are the marks designating 1t as the
sw. corner of township7. Besides the
young growth of timber, in place of that
slashed down when the line was run, the
two monuments are all there is to des,
ignate the line between the two nations.
Where the steamboat lands is store,
pos tOffice and hotel, and one or two res
licences, but no real soil or town, all of
these places being located on sand spit
that is connected with the main land on
the west side Of the barbor by narrow
roadway. 1t is this long narrow spit
that forms the harbor. The agriculture
al settlements hre along the porth side,
up Dakota Creek and along California
Creek, which last stream flows into the
head of the bay or harUor. Its mouth is
about miles from the steamboat land
ing.
The soil near the water and where
taken up aroudd the bay is not of as
good quality as farther back toward the
Noetsack river, yet there are many good
places where the land Is very fertile.
Birch Bay settlement ir only two or
three miles west of the main settlement,
and should properly be included in it.
