COUNCIL AUTHORIZES INCREAS.
ED SALARIES-JUGGL FUNDS
TO GET MONEY

All salaried officials and employees
of the city except the clerk treasurer
and attorney. were voted an increase
of 20 per cent by the council at its
regular meeting Tuesday evening,
dating from August 1. This is in
accordance with the petition recently
presented to the council by the EN-
ployes and means an increase of ap-
Iproximately 1915 a month in the to-
tai municipal payroll
AS the city has no other funds
available, the extra money needed
will be obtained for the rest of this
year out of the fixed estimates"
paid by property owners for engineer
ing and other expenses Connected with
the various improvement projects
now under way in the city, which in
cidentally constitute the greatest
amount of work ever undertaken by
the city at any one time. Next year,
it is anticipated, the council will in
crease the city tax levy to Is mills,
the new limit fixed by the recent leg
islature. The levy this year was IL
mills, the former statutory limit.
The "raise" goes to all employees
of the park, water, street, engineer
ing, police, fire and city hall depart
ments. The city clerk, treasurer and
attorney do not ''get in on it, from
the fact that they are elective officials
and their salaries are fixed by statute.

SUPERVISOR TELLS HISTORY OF
ROAD WORK IN MINING
DISTRICT

George Sumption, supervisor of
road district No. 3, who was serious
ly taken to task by the residents of
Tono at public hearing before the
county commissioners a couple of
weeks ago, for his alleged neglect Of
the road from the coal-mining town
south to the Lewis county line, gives
an extended review of the road work
in the Tono district, in the following
statement:
-Four years ago the county COM
missioners went to headquarters at
Tono and Mr.. Brooks, the superin-
tendent, requested that what money
was spent in their territory be spent
improving the road to the Lewis
county line, which was an old punch
con road and not fit for auto traffic.
Il as road supervisor, was instruct
ed to remove the punchon, stump and
grade the roadbed, make large fill
and plank the road, which was done.
The mistake I made was putting
down the light lumber the commits
sioners furnished, the lumber being
too light for the speed the autos go
over it, and when Tom LaBelle,
Tono man, quit keeping the road in
repair could not get local man to
look after it and was compelled to
take a crew from Tenino to do the
work.
"Since January LIST have laid
$4,000 feet Of plank. labor and ma
terial costing $3.50. on the road south
of Tono to Lewis county.
Three years ago delegation from
Tono. Olympia and surrounding
country requested the commissioners
to build road from Tono to the
Skookumchuck Valley. stating there
was several hundred thousand dollars
spent out of Thurston county for hay.
grain and produce, which If they had
such road, would be spent in Thurs
ton county The commissioners order
ed me to stump and grade the road,
make cut on the hill and all the
bottom, and, as the road bed is all
clay and gumbo and gravel was hard
to get, heavy plank was used. ex-
cept on the hill and the fill which
was gravelled. Sixteen turnouts
were built in 5000 feet.

has not tried to give me and, he per-
iured himself when he said l only
worked my crew six hours a day on
the road.
During the past four years more
than $4,000 has been spent on the
road from the Hannaford to the
Skookumchuck, a distance of two and
one-half miles, for labor and supplies.
MY relations with the officials or
