Puget Sound.
The coin is dated 1907; weight 404

gold and has been plated yellowish

The reeding, commonly called mill

TACOMA SECURES
CENSUS REC0UN1

Washington, Oct. 29.-As the ros,,.
OF the efforts of the Tacoma commit
tee, sent here for the purpose, Census
Director Durand has decided to mahs
a remuneration of the population of
Tacoma. It will be made under tba
immediate direction of William
Hunt, chief statistician of the census
bureau, and by a force of experts he
will select himself. The understand.
ing is that all local bodies will keen
their hands off the count until it is
completed. Director Durand today gave
out the following letter, which be sd.
dressed this afternoon to Messrs. 7, l.
Stiles, William Jones, T. E. Ripley and
Allan C. Mason, the Tacoma com.
mittee:
after due consideration Of your re-
quest for a Remuneration of the city
of Tacoma, / have decided to grant it.
/ wish, however, to make clear the
motives which have led me to that de-
cision. The recount is not conceded
because of any doubt whatever as to
the existence and great extent Of the
frauds in the original enumeration
The evidence of such frauds is over
whelming. It is a fact, however, that
by reason of the methods of fraud pur-
sued the methods of eliminating the
fraudulent names which had to be
utilized may have quite likely resulted
in the elimination of some names Of
bona fide residents.
1.-THE people of Tacoma, in the a0-
sence of a Remuneration, will always
believe that the number OF bona noe
names thus eliminated was very large
and a recount will furnish the oaV
means by which this question can %
properly settled.

uNcLEARED RIGHTs-oF-WAY
DEPLoRED BY HALLINGER

washington, Oct. 20 That the state
of Washington and other timbered
states should require the railroads to
keep their rights-of-way clear of brush
and trees is the opinion of Secretary
ballinger. He believes that a consider
able portion of forest nres are started
by sparks from locomotives, and his
own observation in travelling over the
Cascade range in Washington last
summer is the basis of his belief.
In writing to Gov. Hay on the sub
ject recently, Secretary Ballinger said:
"A subject Of very great Importance
is the prevention and control OF forest
fires, both as relates to the public do
main and to state lands; also to the
protection of private interests. My
observation has been that large per.
centage of forest fires is the result of
fires started from railroad locomotives
passing over the Cascade range. In
my travels this summer through Cali
fornia / was impressed with the fact
that railroads using oil for fuel in their
locomotives were free from criticism
in this respect.
II do not believe that the installa-
ton of spark arresters will accomplish
any beneficial result. but the railroads
should be required to clean up their
rights-of-way SO as to prevent re-
currence of fires from this source and
until SO prepared should be compelled
to maintain sufficient patrol to ex-
tinquish fires set out by locomotives.
"A law requiring the burning of
slashings at seasonable periods under
state supervision would seem to me to
be also advisable. The numbering In
terests in our state ought to be keenly
interested in progressive legislation
along these lines"
