important for the people as a whole,
are the measures to raise additional
revenue for the state and ease the bur-
den Of local taxation. We have in the
works, already, measures to raise at
least hundred thousand dollars per
annum from interests which have
hitherto escaped taxation, and we hope
to prepare the way for even greater
changes next year. We are consider
ing bill to equalize the railroad as
sessments which will be of great value
if it can be passed, and be fair to all
interests. The local option bill has
been reported by the committee and
will be considered this week. The
railroad commission made full report
of their actions before the legislature
in joint session, and | think satisfied
friends and foes alike of the value of
their service to the state. The tax
commission has been very active and is
part of the state machinery which
we greatly need. The bill for the
supervision of banks is undergoing
very careful revision and will be of
benefit to the public, when passed. l
have helped to improve the weed law
by including some other kinds of weeds
and I hope to help make the machinery
of execution a little better than at
present. Several alterations of the
road law are contemplated and | think
the legislature will decide to introduce
few improvements, needed in our
part of the country, while maintaining
the main features of the present law.
am sorry to see quite an agitation
in Eastern Washington for the forma-
ton of a new state. think while the
interests of the present state are some
what varied and each can act as a
safety valve upon the undigested wishes
of the other, we should be too proud of
the state of Washington, the banner
state of the Northwest, which is now
receiving more attention than any par
tition which shall divide the state.
think all of us have reason to be thank
full for the providence that placed our
homes in the state of Washington.
With best wishes for all Adams
county friends,
Very truly yours,
J. d. BASsETT.
