NO NEED OF A NEW CHARTER,

Editor Statesman.
Seattle, Aug. Tn glancing over
the message of Mayor Hunt my eye
caught this paragraph:
We need a new charter. We have
OutgrOwn in the old territorial charter
under which we are working and in
order to get it in a satisfactory form
to meet the approval of our citizens
we should take plenty of time in
which to frame it. If left till next
year there will hardly be time TO get
1t in shape for the next state legis-
Iature"
The question of a new charter for
Walla Walla has been repeatedly de
bated. | recall that a few years ago
a public meeting was held at the court
house, one evening, to debate the
question. Several set speeches were
made by lawyers and others advOcat-
ing the building Incorporating under
the general law of the state. Having
been invited by its promoters TO speak
at the meeting I prepared myself by
making a thorough study and COM
parison of the old charter with the
state law governing cities Of the third
class to which Walla Walla then be-
lOnged. No man at the meeting knew
my conclusions and after | read to the
meeting my carefully prepared paper
all men present ceased advocating
giving up the old charter for the new
state law. being satisfied b. my show
ing that Walla Walla has more rights
powers and privileges under the old
charter than it can possibly enjoy
and exercise under the general law.
When it is recalled that the consti-
tuition of Washington provides that
only a city containing a population
of 10000 inhabitants Or more. shall
be permitted to frame a charter for
it's own government" and that cities
of less size can only be organized
under general laws or continue under
their territorial charters, it becomes
evident that the proposal to have
WalIa Walla frame a charter to meet
its supposed needs is one that is hard
TO carry out, if not absolutely impos-
sibIe of execution Every member Of
the legislature would have whack at
the bill What would just suit Walla
Walla might be found very objection
able by other cities of the second
class and vice versa. Better endure
the ills we know than seek others We
know not. in a legislature.

There can be no doubt of the deter

Although the administration Tolicy
In the boundary matter, as thus reduced
to its simplest terms, might seem t. be
non-diplomatic and, in its pos sibilities,
even hostile and warlike, there is no
idea on the part of President Roosevelt

Britain will become seriously strained.

the administration that the foreign

| foot of the mountains. There it will be
converted into electricity and thence
it will be transmitted by the necessary
mains and branch wires to all parts OF
Seward peninsula to operate electric
motors for pumping water from the
nearest local streams for hydraulic
mining purposes. In this way, water
under a hydraulicking pressure, at a
low cost, can be secured anywhere in
the mining districts for any claim
whether creek claim or a high beech,
100 acre one or fraction, by an indi-
vidual, in small way, or by a company
operating extensively. When one
claim creek or section is worked out it
is only necessary to move the transmits
sion line to some other place or point of
use, and so, in time. all persons will be
able to enjoy the benefits of this new
move.
In addition to the development work
that is now being done, working sur
veys will be completed before the last
boats go out, so that during the coming
winter in San Francisco all the neces-
sary machinery can be planned and as
sembled for shipment north by the first
boats next year. In this way, with a
thorough organization of the work Of
installation, the company expects to
have its plant in operation, distributing
electricity to lucky first customers by
the middle Of July or the first of August,
1901
This power company will control be-
tween 90 and 100, 900 horse power,
available for these purposes, and as a
result Seward peninsula will be turned
upside down and will become the great
est gold producing region on the globe.
Here, also, fortunately for the mining
interests we do not, and never will have
any agricultural interests to interfere
with hydraulic mining. Hence forty
years from now we may expect TO see
this water still gushing from the noun
talnS, creating power and causing a
constant stream of wealth to flow into
the Golfers of civilization. No one, as
well as our own citizens, can appreciate
the import of this great undertaking or
realize the vast amount of wealth it
will create, both for the country at
large and more particularly for the
shareholders of the company that is to
own and control this epoch-marking
enterprise.
