gagged Ship Carpenter Hoffman to do the

There is some talk Of the erection of a
steam sawmill on this bay, near the new

of it. There was large turnout of neigh

The state Legislature will adjourn to-
night, when the constitutional limit of
sixty days will have expired. 1t is
questionable for what, in connection
with its deliberations, the people have
The greater cause to be thankful for
the things which it has done or those
which it has left undone. So far as
this county Is concerned it is not vet
evident that it has any particular rea-
son for eXultation on account of any
measures that have been enacted, and
our people have at least one strong rea-
son for remembering the session with
no little dissatisfaction because of the
passage of an inequitable reapportion
ment law, which places the county in
a senatorial district with jefferson and
Clallam counties, with which we have
little in common in a commercial or
industrial way and from which we are
separated by the Strait of San Juan de
Fuca. But the passage of the measure
when imposes upon us This undesir-
able arrangement is not so much to he
regretted as the defeat of the direct mi.
mary bill, which could hardly have
failed to have wholesome effect upon
politics and the conduct of public bust
ness in every county in the state, had
it been enacted. The machine poll
ticlans were there in sufficient force to
prevent the enactment of a meas.
ure which would have interfered
very materially with their domination.
On the whole, however, if the legisla-
ture has not accomplished any vast
amount Of good, the people may well
be thankful that it has not done great
deal of harm.
