exposure of his breach of public trust

sioner Calvert, in consplring with
other employees of the land Office to
secure large tract of valuable tim

was his duty to assist in acquiring for

was nothing more nor less than a
plain, unvarnished statement of what
the records of the state and United

with former Land Commissioner Call

The discussion of the various
~ projects for establishment Of
cement works in northwestern Wash
ington, and especially in this county,
lends interest to the following brief
history of the cement industry from
recent number of the Scientific
American:
'sThe use of cement runs back to
antiquity. There is no exact known
date when mankind first used calcin-
ed limestone in connection with ma
sonry. 1t is known to have been
used anciently by the Chaldeans,
Egyptians. Greeks and Romans.
The most ancient form of cement was
simply burnt limestone, more or less
pure, used very much as we use or
dinary lime at the present time.
The Romans were the first to adul-
terate lime by adding certain clay
soils and slate for the purpose OF
making a cement Of hydraulic ma
ture, i. e., one which would set or
harden under water. Pliny, who
lived in the first century B. c., de-
scribes the method of modifying or
dinary burnt limestone and convert
ing it into form Of hydraulic cement.
Tt was anciently believed that the
best cement was made from the hard
est rock, and this opinion was not
modified from the time Of the Ro-
mans down to the eighteenth century,
However, John Smeaton, the man
who built the second Eddystone light
house, in the course Of examining the
various hydraulic cements for use IN
the foundation and masonry, made
the important discovery that the
quality of hydraulic cement depends
upon the amount Of clay in the lime
stone. This IS conceded as the most
