MAYoR wHIrE,s MESSAGE.

The first message Of Mayor White to the
city councillor rather. his inaugural adj
dress. for such ii should more properly be
calIed--is a plain, Straightforward docu-
ment which speaks volumes for the may
os's common sense and foresight. It's
recommendation are, without exception,
such a. win meet with the approval of the
people, and such a. can be acted upon with
advantage to the city.
The position taken by Mayor White on
the water question Is strong one and is in
entire harmony with his previous record.
sHis views are those held by at least four
6fths Of the people of Seattle. What is
wanted Is an immediate supply of water
adequate for the needs of the city, and
such supply can be most quickly and
most easily obtained from Lake Washing
lngton. Cedar river should. as the mayor
says, be kept in view rs an ultimate source
Of supply, but for the present we must look
- Lake Washington as the source from
which the water to relieve the present
quasi-famine must be procured.
The mayor is equally clear and equally
decided on other questions of municipal
policy. He recommends that new cleo
sion be held to settle definitely the ques-
ton of issuing bonds. As to the advisable
ity, II not Is to the necessity of this course.
there is general agreement The recom-
mendations regarding the general policy of
the city are, without exception. sensible
and timely. They win be generally ap-
proved.
Mayor White starts well.

The art OF writing short stories is probably the

deavor. II implies the possession Of qualities of

new author of this kind appears, therefore. he
is quickly recognized and appreciat d. His
audience does not have to be made; il already
exists eagerly waiting to welcome him. Thus
the sudden popularity of the young English-
man, Rudyard Kipiing, is easily explained.
