County of SaWamish.

The first legislature of the state
of Washington is now in session,
and it is certainly excusable if a
glance be taken at this time back
ward to the meeting of the first
legislative assembly Of the terri
tory of Washington.
One OF the acts of that body was
san act to create and organize the
county Of Sawamish." The coun-
ty of Sawaniish was cnt off from
Thurston and is now identical
with the boundaries OF Mason
county. The act was passed in
March 1S54-th'rty- five years ago.
A few years later the name of
the county was changed to Mason
in honor of Hon. Chas. II. Mason,
the then secretary of the territory,
after whom also Lake Mason was
named. In the absence OF the then
Governor Steven, Secretary Mason
was acting governor.
An old settler will recognize the
names OF the patriotic Indian
fighters named by the legislature
as the first officers of Sawa,nish
(now Mason) county: Wesley Cos
nell, Charles Graham and Lee Han
cock were appointed commission
ers: r. K: Simmons was appointed
sheriff; V. p. Morrow, auditor,
Orington Cushman, treasurer:
Alfred Hall, probate Judge, and
Aaron M. Collins be, aud he is
hereby appointed justice peace in
and Tor Sawamish county, ALLYN

Washington has her great TN
known land like the interior Of AT
RIGA. The country shut in by the
Olympic mountains, which Includes
an area of about $500 square miles,
has never, 10 the positive knowl-
edge of old residents of the terri
| tory, been trodden Dy the foot OF
man, white or Indian. These
mountains rise from the level conn
try, within 10 to Is miles from the
straits of San Juan de Fuca in
the north, the Pacific ocean in the
west, Hoods canal in the east and
the basin of the Quinalt lake in
the south, and, rising to height
of 5000 or 5000 feet, shut in a
vast unexplored area.
The Indians have never pene
trated it, for their traditions say
that it is inhabited by very fierce
tribe, which none of the coast
tribes dared modest. Though it is
impro bable that such tribe could
have existed in this mountain coun-
try without their presence Lecoming
known to the white men, no man
has ever ascertained that it did not
exist. White men, too have only
vague accounts OF any man hav-
ing ever passed through this coun-
try. for investigation of all the
claims Of travellers has invariably
proved that they have only trav-
ersed its outer edges
The most generally.accepted the
Dry in regard to this country is
that it consists Of great valleys
stretching from the inward slopes
OF the mountains to great cen
trail basin. This theory is supper
ted by by the fact that, although the
country around has abundant rain
and clouds constantly hang over
the mountain tops, all the streams
flowing toward the four points Of
the compass are insignificant, and
rise only on the outward slopes of
the range, none appearing to drain
the great area shut in by the
mountains. This fact appears to
support the theory tina: the streams
flowing from the inner slopes of
the mountains feed "a great inter.
ior lake. But what drains this
lake? 1t mast have an outlet
somewh ere, and as all the streams
pouring from the mountains rise
on their outward slopes, it must
have subterrancan outlet into the
ocean, the straits or sound. There
are great discoveries in store for
some Of Na'hi' gt,n's explorer .
A gentleman named Drew, now
residing at Olympia, states that he
has climbed to the summit of the
eastern range from Hoods canal -,
and could see great valleys stretch :
ing toward the west. A party
or railroad prospectors claim to
have penetrated the interior, bnt
could give no account oft. and ap-
pear only ohave skirted the outer
slopes, 10 or Is miles from Hoods
canal. A party of United States
soldiers is said to have traversed
the country from Port Townsend,
but no data are obtainable as to
what they saw.
Numerous attempts have been
made to organize exploring parties,
bnt they have invariably fallen
through, the courage of the proiec
tors oozing ont at the last moment.
There is fine opportunity for
some Of the hardy citizens of the
Sound to acquire fame by unveil-
ing the mystery which wraps the
land encircled by the srowcapped
|Olympic range.-Seattle Press.
We understand that the Press is
organizing an exploring party.
