SPLIT IN FAIR BOARD

Executive Commissioner Quits Panama
Exposition COmmissiOn.
Elmer E. johnson, executive COM
missioner from Washington to the Pan
anna Pacific exposition, has rendered
his resignation to take effect immedi-
ately. His decision to quit Is due to
difference with the state fair commits
sion over the acceptance Of site for
the Washington building at the San
Francisco fair.
Mr.. johnson wanted the agricultur-
al, industrial and general exhibit of
this state housed in it's building, while
the commission, acting on the sugges-
tion of the fair management, held that
the building would best be used for
educational and social events which
will tend to advertise this state and
bring tourists and settlers here, while
the exhibits should be distributed
among the various buildings.
Mr.. Johnson was formerly executive
commissioner from this state at the
St. Louis, Buffalo and Portland expo
sitions.

COAST IN GRIP OF
HEAVY RAIN STORM
First Six Days of Year See Heav-
lest Rainfall in the History of
Olympia Weather Bureau.

With a daily average rainfall fol
the first six days of 1.3 inches, tota
Of 7.76 inches up to o'clock Tuesday
evening. Olympia has been in the griI
of rain storm which has reached sur
prising proportions all over the North
Pacific Coast and in this vicinity
broke all the records of the weather
bureau for consecutive rainfall in the
80 years Of its history.
In every other city on Puget Sound
and in most places up and down the
Coast, the rain has been accompanied
by heavy winds destroying telephone
and telegraph wires and doing consid'
erable other damage, but 1t did not
reach such proportions here, though
several trees were reported blown
in various parts of the city. It abated
somewhat Wednesday afternoon, when
the sun came out for a while, but
started again in the evening, though
the clouds broke away little now and
then for a brief moment.
Sunday evening, Monday and part
of Tuesday railroad traffic in and out
of Olympia was demoralized by slides
on the Tacoma, Grays Harbor and Te
nino lines Of the Northern Pacific, one
slide occurring near Sherlock, another
about a mile and half west of town
up Percival's creek, and the third near
Tenino. Sunday the Seventh street
tunnel was running nearly knee-deep
in water, floating many ties. loose
boards and piles being used in the con
struction of the new tunnel and caus-
ing trains much trouble in getting
through. The observation car Of the
Harbor-bound train that morning, af
ter half an hour had been spent in get
ting through the tunnel. jumped the
track a short distance outside and II
was nearly an hour later before It was
put back on.
The heavy rainfall has flooded the
lowlands throughout Western Wash
ington, boosting the rivers to unusual.
ly high points 80 that railroad tracks
and bridges are endangered and rail-
road trafic through Southwestern
Washington has been considerably In.
terrupted. The Chehalis and Newau.
KUN valleys and the whole Willapa
Harbor district were swamped, while
Moclips, on the ocean beach above Alb
along the beach have nearly all been
washed away.
The storm has also been bad
throughout Western Oregon, many yes
sells being bar-bound at Astoria.

BIG CHANGES IN
NATION IN 1918
Memorable Events Of Far-Reach-
ing Influence in Govern
ment's Progress.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Twelve
months of 1918 wrought changes in
the American government-political.
economical, financial-probably more
far.reaching than any other year of
the last quarter century. This is ap-
parent in a backward glance over the
memorable events of the last year in
all branches of governmental activity.
A Democratic administration in ma
tional affairs came to power in this IL
months with q Democratic president
and q Democratic Congress at his back
for the first time since Grover Cleve-
land occupied the White House. The
first constitutional amendment since
1870 was perfected, providing two
radical changes in the fundamentals of
government-an income tax and the
direct election Of United States sena-
tors.
The national bank and currency sys-
tenn, designed to float the debt of the
Civil war, and which has operated ever
since, was re-organized into q federal
reserve system in which the central
bank plan, the dominant system of Eu-
rope. was rejected and financial re-
organization perfected.
A Democratic tariff law became ef-
fective, the first since the Wilson bill
of 1898, and one of the most compre-
hensive tariff measures ever enacted.
A parcel post system was brought
into successful operation and some Of
its rates were later reduced, while GER
tain limitations were extended.
The interstate commerce commission
began physical valuation of railways
"a project which will cost millions
and take years to complete, but which
is expected ultimately to provide a
basis of rate making.

many USELESSLY BLIND
30 Per Cent. Of Cases Preventable, Says
Institution Superinten ndent.

Thirty per cent. of blindness in the
state Of Washington is preventable," )"
says Prof. w. B. Hall, superintendent
of the State School for the Blind at
Vancouver, who was in Olympia re-
Gently in conference with the board of
control.
This percentage of blindness is
caused by 'opthalmia neontorum.'
commonly known as baby's sore eyes,"
said Superintendent Hall, "and results
In either total or partial blindness. A
simple treatment of silver nitrate So
luton for these cases would have pre-
vented tragedy and retained perfect
vision for the child. Many states are
spending annually from $4,000 to $780,
900 through commissions for the blind
and in giving publicity to the means
for the prevention of blindness.
"The state of Washington should
provide for an examination of the eyes
of all students in the Vancouver in
stitute by the best oculists obtainable,
who should determine the cause of
blindness and tabulate these causes, so
that operation or treatment or fitting
Of glasses may improve the vision of
some and enable them to attend the
public schools. This would relieve the
state fthe expense of special educa-
ti0n.'

MORE THAN EXPECTED.
Revenue from New Tariff to he Hixhel
Than First Predicted.

Than First Predicted.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Treasury
officials are inclined to believe that the
Underwood-S Simmons tariff act will
produce several millions more revenue
annually than had been estimated by
tariff experts. The treasury expected
to see revenues fall off about $45,000,-
900 a year, but reports for the first two
months under the new law have led to
the belief that this estimate is exces-
sive.
Some officials predicted the falling
off would not amount to more than
$36,000,000 year, which would give
the government $9,0oO,0OO more than
was counted upon for 1914. Customs
revenues fell off more than S4,000,000
during November. but for December,
figures just out show the decrease over
December. 1912, was only $2,700,000.
Although Christmas business may ac-
count for the increase over November
this year it was pointed out the nor
NAL decrease from now on will run
about $3,000,000 monthly.

DRyS PETITION FOR
STATE PROHIBITION
File Proposed Law as Initiative
Measure-Forbids Sale and
Manufacture Of Intoxicants.

With the filing here last Friday Of
proposed state wide prohibition law, to
be voted on under the initiative rules
next November, a contest that Is ex-
pected to absorb much attention be-
tween now and November 3 next has
been started.
The proposed law, If enacted. will
forbid the sale or manufacture of any
intoxicant in the state after January
/, 1916. Only pharmacists will be per-
mitted to sell liquor, and then only
upon a physicians certificate. This
also applies to patent medicines con-
tanning any alcohol.
The only way any person can legally
obtain liquor other than by physician's
certificate, If the law is enacted, Is by
securing from the county auditor, up
on payment of a 25-cent fee and giving
information in regard to the user. q
permit which will enable the recipient
to ship in for his own use IL quarts Of
beer or one-half gallon of stronger bev-
erage. This supply must be made to
last 20 days, for no other permit will
be issued within that time.
Under these conditions the supply
will be shipped from an outside point,
but the words intoxicating liquor"
and the name of the person ordering
it. are to be printed on the outside Of
the package.
The Anti-Saloon league plans to
start Immediately to secure the sigma
lures of $4,000 registered voters,
whose names must be checked and Pc
titions turned in to the secretary Of
state by July 8.
The filing Of the proposed statewide
prohibition law has set in motion, for
the first time in this state, the initia-
tive election machinery provided by
the last legislature.
There is room for maneuvers in
plenty and chance for a move of some
kind or other every week from now
until the date of election, November 3.
