that has any roads has laws regulat-
ing the weight that can be hauled on
certain width of tires. Engineers can
design and build roads to withstand
any loads but the cost would be en-
ormous and 1t is considered more
economical to build roads to carry
reasonable loads. lnasmuch as the
roads are the peoples property they
should not be disposed to destroy
their own property. The 1918 Session
of the Legislature has passed a law
which limits the load that can be
hauled on any kind of vehicle. 1t is
practically the same law that is in
effect in all states that have laws on
the subject. No one is required to
purchase a new wagon but simply to
limit the loads hauled on the wagons
they now possess.
On wagons the following amounts
can be hauled depending on the width
of tire. The amount includes the load
and also the weight of the vehicle:
liz inch tires 800 pounds
| IA inch tires. ............35 pounds
. inch tires ...........4O 1000 pounds

lSA inch tires. .......... $500 pounds

Above 4 inches add 400 pounds for
each quarter of an inch in width of
tire.
1t is easily seen that more pressure
is allowed than Os produced by a
twelve ton road roller in building the
road.

can be hauled on motor trucks equip
ped with rubber tires. AS an exam
pie, if motor truck is equipped with
tires five inches wide, sixteen thou
sand pounds could be hauled includ-
ing the weight of the truck. More is
allowed on rubber tires than on steel
tires because rubber tires being more
or less soft are not so destructive pro-
vided the vehicle is not driven too
fast The law also specifies that
trucks cannot be operated at greater
speed than fifteen miles per hour and
when the weight is in excess of the
six tons the speed must be reduced to
eight miles. per hour with iron tires
and twelve miles per hour with rub
Der tires.
The speed of automobiles shall not
exceed twenty-five miles per hour.
Persons violating any Of the pro-
visions of the Act are subject to fine
of not less than $500 nor more than
$4,000 and 1t is the duty of the Courts
and all Peace Officers to enforce the
law and when the officials when prop
erly informed, fail to enforce the law
they are subject to fine of not less
than $4,000 nor more than 10000.
All fines go to the credit of the
road fund in the county or the street
fund in the city or village depending
upon where the offense is committed.

FIGHTS ADVANCE IN
INSURANCE RATES
INCREASE BY FIRE UNDER.
WRITER'S "OUTRAGE."

A fiat increase of 10 per cent in
fire insurance rates in this state,
which became effective November l,
is denounced as "an outrage, un-
warranted and uncalled for" by
State Insurance Commissioner H. o.
Fishback. but he has no authority
in law to prevent it.
He, however, is calling on the
commercial clubs and civic organiza-
tions of the state to join with him
in fight against the increase, which
was filed the fore part of this week
by Lee Mckenzie, representing the
Washington Surveying & Rating Bu-
reau, without any explanation. Fish
back also proposes to take the matter
before the legislature.
Commissioner Fishback declares
the move sis merely an attempt by
the insurance companies to make up
their losses in other states where
adequate fire prevention measures
have not been taken" He declares
that fire prevention activities have
reduced losses in this state 20 per
cent in the last two years, which he
says more than offsets any increase
in the cost of doing business the
companies may have encountered
because of war conditions.
He further states that "the under
writing profit in this state last yeer
was 22h per cent. while per cent
would have been fair profit" and
he also says tho companies "have re-
ceived added amounts in premiums
due to the increase in the value OF
building materials and stocks

MAKES PLANS FOR
WAR CHEST DRIVE
COUNTY DEFENSE COUNCIL TO
LAUNCH NEW MONEY.
RAISING PLAN.

The Thurston County Council of
Defense Is engaged in making plans
through it's finance committee for
raising the War Chest of the county
to size sufficient to care for all the
demands for funds for war work
which are laid upon the county by the
national and state defense organiza-
tions.
Rev. r. Franklin Hart, executive
secretary of the county council, who
announces the coming drive for the
war chest, says that the active cam
paign will be put on during the same
time that the country at large will be
raising funds for seven organizations
doing service in the armed forces of
the nation.
1--WE have rad kind of war chest
for some time" Mr.. Hart went on
to say. This was the fund raised
by the so-call,d 10-cent cards, which
the minute women of the county have
had in particular charge. Out of
this fund there have been paid some
of the smaller quotas for the county,
notably the Y. M. C. A. call last
spring for 5000. and various
amounts to other organizations
whose calls were approved first by
the Council of National Defense at
Washington, then by the State Coun.
Gil of Defense, and last by the county
council
'The only thing the matter with
that 10-cent war chest is that it was
too tiny to care for the larger needs,
Mr.. Hart continued. Consequently
plans are now under way for en-.
larging the income of the fund sc
that every demand for donations
from this country can be paid from
the one fund.
This will include the United War
Work campaign fund. the quota for
this county being nearly $4,000 in
November; the Armenian Syrian re-
lief for which campaign is to be
made in January, our quota being
$3.69S, and the needs of the Red
Cross both for maintenance of work
in the chapters in this county and
! for the third Red Cross war drive
which will come in the spring.
''In fact, the war chest is to care
for every demand except Red Cross
membership and investments.
"The advantage of the war chest
method is apparent from many con-
siderations. Among them may be
mentioned the time and effort saved
in the making of campaigns. The
war chest raises in one drive an
amount which otherwise must have
several drives.
'The war chest method means
that only the quota of the county fol

Judge Mount is SO years old and
has lived in Washington since 1886.
He was graduated from the Univer-
sity of Oregon in 1883 and began the
practice of law in Portland. but in
1885 left Oregon and settled in the
Territory of Washington at Sprague.
Less than two years later he was
made prosecuting attorney for Lin
coin, Douglas and Adams counties.
which then included much wider
east side area than they do now.
When Washington became state,
Mount was made superior court judge
for the counties of Lincoln, Douglas,
Adams and Okanogan. He resigned
after seven years on the bench and
moved to Spokane to resume the
practice of law. In 1898 he was
elected to the house from Spokane
and served in the legislative session
OF 1899. A year later he was elected
to the supreme court and has since
made his home here.

Supreme Court Justice Wallace
Mount, who is a candidate for re-
election next Tuesday to one of the
6-year terms, has served on the su-
preme bench of the state for the past
1S years, during which period nearly
all the progressive legislation has
enacted and upheld.
During Judge Mounts term of SER
vice this state ras made great strides
in legislation. The validity of pro-
gressive acts have been upheld so
consistently by its decisions that the
supreme court of the state of Wash
ington has earned the reputation OF
being the most progressive in the
United States.
Among the notable laws which
have been held valid in decisions
signed by Judge Mount are: the
direct primary act, railroad commits
sion law, the initiative, referendum
and recall the industrial insurance
law, local option law, commission
form of government, and the prohibit
ton law. He also signed the decision
upholding the injunction against in
timidation ami coercion by picketing.

FLU" IS
OVER CREST HERE
LOCAL AUTHORITIES SAY EPI.
DEMIC Is DIMINISHING-27
VICTIMS CLAIMED.

Though there are still quite a num-
Der of cases of Spanish influenza
among residents of Olympia. the
number of new cases is diminishing,
Mayor Jesse =. Mills stated Friday,
and local authorities are hopeful that
the crest of the disease has been
passed.
They, however, maintain that peo-
pie generally should continue to be
particularly careful, call medical at
tention promptly as soon as stricken
with the disease. and then use com
mon sense" as one of them expressed
it, in its treatment. The ban on
gatherings of all kinds continues.
The authorities have not issued or
ders that people generally wear
masks, as has been done in Seattle,
Portland, San Francisco and other
Pacific coast cities, but generally
favor the use Of them, though Mayor
Mills reports tnat local physicians
are not agreed as to their efficacy In
warding off the disease. In some
cities all stores are closed part of the
time daily, while in Seattle they are
to be closed all day Saturday.
There have been 81 deaths here
since the epidemic struck Olympia,
but only II of them were residents
of the city, the others having been
brought here from outside points for
treatment.
AS an illustration that prompt and
common sense" treatment copes
with the disease, Mayor Mills cites
the situation at St. Martins college.
cat the outbreak of the epidemic
they reported to us that ~ boys were
sick" the mayer said. "They did not
close the school, but as soon as a boy
took sick the fathers put them right
to bed, kept them warm, gave them
plenty of fresh air, and took care OF
them all the while.
"a day or two ago one of the faith
ers told me all the boys were out
playing football again." the mayor
added.
No reports have been received In
the city of any serious outbreak OF
the disease in any community of the
county. At Union Mills the other day,
after several cases had appeared
there. all the men in the crew were
given the serum treatment and this
is expected to check the malady
there.
