ton that plans be made for build
ing a new city and county Jail
building in Tacoma, on the
ground that 1t was too early in
the year to consider the under
taking.

the suggestion. Both the city and
county jails are unsanitary and
too crowded for comfort, Petit
said. He asked that joint COM
mittee of city and county commits
sioners be appointed to plan for
joint Jail building to be erected
either this year or in 1919.

Washes
Away a Car

Thursday evenings rainstorm
was so severe that it derailed one
of the new T. r. & P. one-man
street cars.
The rain swept a deluge of wa
ter and mud down the hillsides
into Old Tacoma. At 3Oth and
McCarver streets the mud was
piled up over the street car rails.
An unsuspecting one-man car
came romping down the hill, hit
the mud bank, and swerved half
way across the pavement.

IRISH QUESTION
Anxiety Felt as Settlement of Discus sion is in Prospcct-Govcrnme Duty Outlined.

London, Jan. 14.-In anticipation that the present week must see the final phases of the discussion of the Irish question, The Times discusses the prospects with evident anxiety.
 "Everybody," it says, lis still en- titled to hope that the last days of the convention will yet produce una nimity, but it would be folly to ig- nore the risk of a different result or to minimize the disastrous issue which would follow failure. For this reason we emphasize that the duty of the government is to be prepared and to ignore the disbelief that total failure is any longer possible.
 The Times appeals to the govern ment to have their own plan ready dealing with the problem and dwells on the great importance of a settle- ment to the empire, to the progress of the war and to relations with the United States
