HARBOR LEASE HELD UP.
Mayor Opposes Granting Weston's
Application for Part of City Tract.

Opposition by Mayor Geo. A. Mott
man to the sub-leasing by the city of
a part of it's harbor tract to Arthur
Weston, who wants to make extern
sive improvements on it to permit the
operation Of car ferry between
Olympia and Shelton, resulted in the
appointment Of a special committee
to confer with the state land COM
missioner, after a considerable de-
bate at the council meeting Tuesday
night.
The proposal to grant Weston a
lease was reported favorably by the
public property committee, but the
mayor opposed the suitcase on the
ground that the city would need the
property for another city dock with
in five years. Councilmen who IA
vored the proposition, however,
pointed out that only half of the
property is to be sub-leased and that
the city still retains right to a tract
with 150-foot frontage on the harbor,
and expressed the opinion that this
would be plenty large enough for the
city's purposes. They also argued
that the city should encourage the
establishment of an enterprise such
as Weston proposes.

\. P.'S new DEPOT MAY
Be ERECTED THIS YEAR
Construction of $50, 900 Building De-
pends on Capitol COmmis.
siOn's Plans.

Delayed in it's plans for the last
two years by the capitol commission
which for lack of funds was unable
to carry out some of its ideas, the
Northern Pacific will construct a new
$4,000 depot on its property at Sew
enth and Columbia streets this year.
II the supreme court upholds the cap
itol bond issue, enabling the COM
mission and the railroad to reach an
agreement as to plans.
This is the unofficial report current
in local circles this week, authenti-
Gated by the fact that two years ago
the railroad made provision in its
budget for a new depot here, appro-
priating $4,000 for the purpose, and
prepared plans for the building and
the re-arrangement Of its yards, only
to hold them up temporarily at the
request of the capitol commission.
The sale of the capitol bonds and the
likelihood that their validity Will be
upheld in the test suit to be argued
before the supreme court Friday,
have revived the railroads plans as
to the construction of a new depot
here.
The company had planned to re-
arrange its yards and to erect a new
depot at the same time as the con-
crete tunnel under Seventh street
was constructed. but was delayed as
stated, because of yard changes the
capitol commission desires made and
upon which it was not then in po-
sition to talk business. When the
re-arrangement is undertaken, the
depot will probably be built on the
west side of the railroad line, and
the route of the railroad straight
ened so that instead OF curving
around under capitol hill 1t will run
directly across the bay.

ready if it is necessary that should
maintain your honor"
Regret that the question has come
up in campaign year was expressed
by Mr.. Wilson. LET us forget" he
said, that this is year of national
elections" The preparedness issue,
he said, should have nothing to do
with politics. 1.-THE man who seeks
partisan value from these questions
is unworthy Of your confidence" he
declared. The president asserted it
was the duty Of all men of all parties
to think and do the same thing and
forget party differences at such a
time.
"And in the first place all should
tell the truth" he declared. Some
tell you that we have no defense and
others say we have sufficient defense.
Neither tell the truth. Take for in
stance, our coast defenses. Their
quality is admirable, but their guam
tity is insufficient. AS to our navy,
some say it ranks second to any navy
in the world. Our navy ranks fourth,
and we should do everything to bring
it up to adequate strength and eff
cheney.

haps is on land and in the number of

CLUB WANTS SAMPLES Of
LOCAL SPUDS FOR SEED
Also Desires to Know How MANY
Acres Of Potatoes Will Be Plant.
ed Here This Year.

Decision to use local seed potatoes
this year and to treat them with
chemicals il necessary to eradicate
any disease, was taken at the regular
meeting of the Thurston County Po-
tato club at the Chamber of Com
merce last Saturday, when, though
there was good attendance in spite
of the inclement weather, the club
voted to postpone permanent organi-
cation until Saturday afternoon, Feb
ruary IL, when it is hoped that the
weather will be such that more farm
ers can attend.
At the next meeting the club wants
all those farmers who have white
seed potatoes for sale to bring sam
pies of them and also samples of the
soil in which they were grown, so
that the club can determine the best
varieties to plant in the different
soils throughout the county and can
buy the proper seed from those farm
ers who have 1t for sale. Samples of
the soil are as essential as samples
of seed, according to the announce
ment made by DR.. P. H. Carlyon, or
ganizer of the club. A.
At the meeting February IL the
club also wants to know what farm
ers are going to plant potatoes this
year and how many acres they ex-
pect to plant, so that it can have &C
curate information as to the acreage
1t can depend on for this years crop
and make the required arrangements
for marketing 1t. The club wants to
include in it's marketing plan all the
acreage it can get, so that it can
and grade the crop and
offer buyers sufficient Of any particu-
lar variety to make carload ship
ments.
Oficers will be elected at this meet
ing and the permanent organization
effected, and for all these reasons the
club hopes for a big attendance.

COUNTY DROPS GAME FARM.
Loses 81 900 in Year and Then Lets
GO to H. w. Myers.

After having been operated for the
mast year at a loss of $1,000. the
county game farm at Buffers Cove
was taken over this week by II. w.
Myers, who has been in charge OF 1t
for the past year, after having orig
inally sold it to the county.
Details of the transfer are not
made public, except that Myers is to
nav for the farm with birds sold to
the county. The farm was estab-
lished by the game commission and
maintained out of moneys received
by the county from hunters licenses
and from fines assessed for violations
of the game laws.

two days Of occupying three weeks

part of which will be charged to

The taking Of testimony was COM
pleted Wednesday afternoon, the
courts instructions were delivered
by Superior Judge John r. Mitchell
