Road Levies Compromised.
Assurance that active work will soon
be undertaken on the construction Of
the new capitol buildings in Olympia
was given this week when the house
concurred in the action of the senate
in authorizing a $4.OO0,OOO bond issue
against the capitol land grant. The
plan is that advocated by Governor
Lister when he vetoed the appropria-
tion of $551,000 contained in the gen.
eral omnibus bill and the passage Of
the measure comes as the direct result
of the energies of Senator P. H. Car
lyon.
The law becomes effective immedi-
ately upon It's approval by Governor
Lister. An appropriation Of $651.000
for the completion Of the Temple Of
Justice is specified to become available
at once, The bonds are issued at the
discretion and direction Of the capitol
buildinsg commission.
Governor Lister has frequently made
the statement that he proposed to see
the work Of constructing WashinRton'e
new capitol buildings in Olympia wen
under way during his administration.

MUSEUM OF RECORD OFFICE
ooomsday Book Is Chief Treasure OF

American Visitors.

The little museum which forms part
OF the record office in Chancery lane
Is a British institution better known
to Americans than to the thousands Of
Londoners who daily pass It's doors.
OF course, the most treasured OF
the museums exhibits is the Dooms-

are the gunpowder plot papers. the
Wellington papers, the log of the
Victory, the last letter which Nelson

first he "scribbled" with his left hand
after losing the right one, the treaty
Of peace-strongly reminiscent of the

THE OF


The world gains a big asset by our
power to forget, not to speak of the
happiness added. April 18th a year
ago, the Titanic went down, with
about 1900 passengers. 1t gripped the
world with horror, and drove sleep
from many eyes, that had suffered no
loss. Most of us forgot the the four
teenth of April 1913, but is it not well
that this should be so? II all our sorrows
in life were piled up it would be a heart
sick world.
"Pluck from the memory a rooted
sorrow 20
Raze out the written troubles of the
brain,
And with some sweet oblivious
antidote.
Cleanse the stuff'd BOSOM of that
perilous stuff,
Which weighs upon the heart"

BRYAN SOLVES HI


When the political economists are en-
deavoring to settle the high cost of
living by putting more gold in the dol
lar, or more crumbs in the sausage,
Secretary of State w. j. Bryan has
solved it by q demonstration.
The other day Mr.. Bryan and his
wife found themselves at dinner hour
near q market, but O long distance
from home. He also found eve cents
in his pocket. SO w. J. went into the
market and bought two buns at q cent
each, and Ave cents worth of cheese.
On this food the Secretary Of State and
his wife lunched satisfactorily. At last
we have the solution. Here was o meal
for three and q half cents, or board at
the rele of thirty-eight dollars and
thirty-two cents per year.
Of course Independent readers must
ask n question before accepting this
solution of the problem. First when
and where did Mr.. Bryan breakfast,
and what was the menu for dinner
that awaited the Secretary and his
wife when they reached homer If we
know this we might find that the two
buns, and five cents worth Of cheese
was q superfious luxury.

Smith, who lived .here for some time and knew him we'll, also speaks in the high est terms of the next governor.
