the admiral who fought us ef-
fectively during the revolution
has no claim upon the most splen-

state called Washington.
As Seattle joins with us In re-

are about ready to let go that end
OF the stick.
Mayor Gill, Rev. Sydney
Strong, Judge Ronald, Frank II.
Hankes, every minister of every
church in that city and every
newspaper that has spoken a
word about the subject in the last
months have spoken strongly in
favor of letting the admiral de-

he has done so much to muss up.
What's Still To DO.
We are ready to let go that
