sible. and find q more economical
and practicable route to the city
front.
The effort made by Esquire J. c.
Rathbun for the establishment of
county historical society 10 In har-
mony with . sentiment that should
ind many responses In this city and
county. The proud position Olympia
IL to occupy in the state Of Washing
ton will never be known until the
history Of Washington territory is
written. She can best attain her
proper position in history through q
local historical society. For time
the history Of the village Of Olympia
was the history of the territory.
It is a matter Of public congratu-
lation that the Olympia Electric
Light & Power company have at last
been able to float their bonds and
will very soon secure ample funds
$3.50, 000-with which to prosecute
their several enterprises in the city.
Negotiations were closed yesterday
when a mortgage covering the COM
pany's property was executed as Sc
curity for the loan. The bonds were
purchased by the Aemrican Loan &
Trust company Of Boston through
the agency of General Hazard Stew
ems. The company announce 1t as
their determination to Immediately
begin the construction of an electric
railway from the southern boundary
of the city to Fourth street and east
ward on Fourth street to Ayers hill.
It is expected to have four miles of
road in operation by June I.
John L. Sullivan. the famous
worlds champion: will appear at the
Olympia theater Tuesday.
Property owners are promptly
complying with the house-numbering
ordinance.
Rain, hail, snow, frost and sleet
have composed the weather program
for the past week. The high wind
Monday night blew down the grand
stand and part Of the fence enclosing
the ball grounds and several Of the
bill boards belonging to the theater.
Two carloads of machinery arrived
for the Tumwater Ice company
Wednesday. It is expected the COM
pany will have the plant in operation
BY the middle of February.
On Tuesday evening an ordinance
redistricting the city into six wards
passed the city council.
