Voters Who Can Not Vote

There are 500, 900 men in the
United States capable of voting intelli-
gently, irrespective of any political
party, who are DISTINGUISHED
These men, all American citizens
and rs per cent of them American
born, constitute the travelling public,
made up of travelling salesman and
travelling theatrical people-men who
understand the business conditions and
needs of the country; who pay the
highest cost of living; who maintain
the railroads and hotels and who are in
reality the blood that is flowing thru
the veins of commerce. Yet they are
DISTINGUISHED. Why? Because on cleo
ton day they are away from their homes
and therefore unable to vote. These
men want to vote. They are waging,
at the present time, a systematic, ma
tion-wide battle for the privilege of suf-
frage. United into The Travellers
Good Government Association, an or
ganization Of 1870, 900 members, they
are fighting to pass the Absent Voters's
Act-a bill which provides that any
citizen may vote in any district in
which he happens to be on election
day upon presentation of a certificate
of Identification from the eletion judi
ges or county clerk of his own district.
Already the association has been in
strumental in passing this act in eight

Working for Road Around Mt. Rainier

A strong lobby is at Olympia this
week working on n of the most
unique scenic propositions ever con
sidered in the state. 1t embraces a
loop road around Mount Rainier, which
the United States government has
agreed to build providing the state Of
Washington will construct a road four
teen miles long connecting the state
road neal Orting, Pierce county, with
She park. 1t will cost the state 1884,
900 to build this fourteen miles of road.
On the other hand the government
will approximately pay out $4,000 0O
in building the scenic road around the
mountain. The road will be, roughly
100 miles long, cost $4,000 per mile
and will follow the lower glacial line OF
the mountain at an average altitude Of
4,500 feet. 1t will make c~onspicuously
easy of access a region Astounding in
the finest mountain scenery OF the
world. Automobiles can leave Seattle
or Tacoma and go entirely around the
mountain and get back within the day.
No grade will be over 5 per cent.

State Nav Buy LOgged-Off Lands

State Fire Warden Ferris will sub
nit a bill to the Legislature providing
for the state to buy up all lo~gged-oft
lands that, on account Of taxes lapsing,
are subject to sale. The bill will pro-
vide that the state pay each county the
amount of taxes actually due the
county on such lands, and the state
will acquire ownership by virtue Of
holding delinquent tax certificates.
Fire Warden Ferris wants the state to
hold all such lands for reforestation.
The condition in Western Wash
ington," said Mr.. Ferris recently,
merits the very closest scrutiny on
the part Of thinking people. For years
and years logging companies have been
denuding forests of large areas. I'm
til recently, the land so deforested
was of the best character, such as river
and creek bottoms and lower bench
lands. But in recent years logging
companies have been forced farther
back by the receding forest line and
are operating on hills and upper bench
lands. When the timber is gone from
such property taxes are largely allowed
to lapse. One of two things will hap
pen unless the state steps in. The
taxes will be allowed to remain perma-
nently delinquent, or cliques OF men
will get together on exploitation
schemes to buy this land and victimize
people not acquainted with facts. The
state ought to buy it. Entire sections
will thus frequently be picked up for
from SIS to $50. Reforesting will cost
the state nothing. Nature will handle
that"
