sWINEFORD's TACTICS.
Trying TO Prevent Appropriations for
the Natal Dry Dock.

WASHINGTON CRY, Feb. 4-[Special. +
Ex-Gov. Swineford, of Alaska, who now
resides at Everett. is here opposing the
appropriation for continuing the construc-
ton of the Puget sound dry dock. When
Swineford came here he had letters to
Senator Squire from citizens of Everett
saying that he was interested in behalf of
that town and to ask the senator's assist
ance. Senator Squire interested himself
in trying to secure S., 900 of the appropria-
ton to improve the tributaries OF Puget
sound for the Snohomish river. to be i'm.
mediately expended. Since then, how
ever, Senator Squire has learned that
Swineford was working hard to prevent
the appropriation for the Puget sound dry
dock at Port Orchard, and giving as his
reasons therefor that it is desirable to have
it located at Everett. instead of the place
already twice decided upon by the govern
ment commissioners The only effect of
Swineior,i's' work was to prevent the ap-
preparation. as he would never be able to
locate the dock at Everett.
Senator Squire has already proposed an
amendment to the naval appropriation
bill providing that more money shall be
appropriated and to have the dock en-
iarged fifty feet SO as to accommodate the
largest vessels that are afioat. If the va
rious points on Puget sound continue to
make war on other points that have been
successful in securing recognition bv the
national government, the result will be
that all will suffer, and the delegation have
hard work TO get anything for the state. 1t
il recognized that no one state can have
all the necessary and worthy places i'm.
proved AT once, and the only way that any
thing can be accomplished is to begin at
one or two points and in each succeeding
session OF congress at one or two more
points until every worthy city and Sec
tion has been cared for and recognized. In
this course of procedure the older and
more important places will first receive
recognition, and that is the way the
Washington dele CATION have been working
during the past four years. If each city
or section tights every community seeking
Just appropriations from the government
and succeeds in defeating these appropri-
atoms, the effect will be disastrous TO the
whole state, as congress will take advant-
age Of protests. which Will be made from
So many points against the improvement
OF any one place, and none will get in and
al Will be losers. OF course, Swineford
will he unable 10 accomplish anything yet,
but will make the work of the Washing
ton delegation in securing the necessary
appropriations much more difficult than it
would be If he had not made his appear

that whatever the future had in store for
him he would ever look back to this hour
