THE railroad business is growing %
that the amount of fuel required BY the
railroads il increasing all the time, The
mines in which this company is inter

coal enough to run their trains needed
in the State Of Washington. Such be-
ing the case we are going to cut out
the commercial business as rapidly as
We can and are asking the people to
buy their fuel elsewhere. 1t occurs to
me that you and the other state officers
could do some good by calling the atten-
ton of the people generally to the i'm
portance of making arrangements for
next winters fuel early and that all
state institutions needing fuel ought TO
begin now to look ahead and make ar
