DR.. BLUE IS To
VISIT TACOMA
H|SSUMMER
:: ByHop

In addition to the cabinet dig
nitaries who are coming to Taco
ma this summer, announcement
came from Washington Wednes-
day afternoon that DR.. Rupert
Blue, surgeon general of the
u. 8. army, will also visit this
city. He will be here probably
several days looking over the
sanitary advantages OF the pro-
posed government army post in
the American Lake prairie and
considering the matter of In
creasing the quarters of the local
immigrant detention station for
Japanese.
So many Japs are coming to

and dock building at the High
bridge it is the intention to in
clude in the building a magnifi-

DECISION Of STATE TAX
COMMISSION ENR|CHES THE
COUNTY BY $4,000

Pierce county's treasury will be
enriched by about $4,000 IN
taxes from the Stone-Webster syn
dictate, according to a decision of
the state tax commission, receiv-
ed by County Assessor Cook to-
day. The decision ends a con-
trOversy of long standing.
When the local electric organ
izations were combined under the
head of the Puget Sound Power,
Light and Traction company, the
Stone-Webster people attempted
to have their entire taxes register
ed in King county. The Tacoma
Railway and Power company, not
having been included in the COM
bine, is not mentioned in the case,
but Pierce county would have
lost taxes on the Electron and

ST0NEWEbSTER
WORRIED BY
{. SUIT

The T. r. & P. company is said
to be considerably worried over
the suit they started in court to
enjoin the city from interfering
with it in violating its franchise
by selling eiecric current for light
in Tacoma.
The cross bill of the city asking
that the court not only prohibit
the company from selling light
current but that 1t declares their
whole franchise forfeited Is more
than the company bargained for
in the issue to be raised.
Should the court decide that the
company, in refusing to obey the
demand of the council to desist
from selling light current, has
forfeited its franchise, Stone
Webster would lose one of the
juciest plums it holds in the
Northwest for it has no business
anywhere to compare with the fat
contract with the Tacoma smell
ter
The suit will come up for hear
ing before Judge yesterday Tuos-
day and citizens will watch care
fully to see how the matter ia
handled.
In the meantime the company
is going right ahead furnishing
light to the Northern Pacific and
Others as usual.
