Il presume that my bill for

position so strongly that the pas
sage Of the bill will be accomplish

Cheaper in Other Places.
"Other cities have cheaper gas
and other countries, such as the

universally. There is no reason
why the people of Washington
should not have gas of The very
best at the 75-cent rate"
Mr.. Madden has also introduced
a bill providing for universal trans
