Maj. Frank Terry, superintendent OF
the Western Washington Indian agen-
cies. returned to Tacoma last week from
a trip to the Quinault agency. He re-
ports that the settlers on the coast are
making a united effort to have the gov
eminent establish light on Granville
Point. three miles from the agency of
the Quinault reservation. The location
is about midway between the lights at
Westport beach ard the one on Destruc-
ton island. These lights are sixty miles
apart. Granville point is rocky pro-
lection jutting out into the ocean with
dangerous reef 1t has proven the de-
struction of many vessel in the mast.
A life saving station in that locality will
also be asked. The station will probably
be located somewhere near the mouth of
the Quinault river, on the Indian reser-
walton. The determination of the In
dams to have their lands apportioned and
sold makes the securing of site for the
station comparatively easy.
