Tacoma is much elated over the in.
production of bill in both houses OF
congress for the erection of an $500
600 public building in that city.
Should the bill become law and that
amount of money expended, it will be
more than has been expended on any
other building in that city in it's his
tory, and the only service that it DOS
sibly can be to Tacomaites will be for
storage room, for Tacoma will not
do enough public business in the next
half a century, at the rate she is going
now, to occupy such building.

If all the police and policemen of
THIS country who accept brides to see

would be a great thinning out of the

for policeman to accept a bribe
when he feels absolutely confident
that he will not get detected in the
same.

Spokane and Seattle, according to
the Walla Walla Argus, are on the

the fact that these cities are making
hard fights against being overrun with

can, it will not be many months be-
fore Walla Walla, like Seattle and
Spokane, will be travelling the same
road.
