THE CARLYON ROAD BILL

Perhaps the Carlyon road bill is drawing
too heavily on the future or, better yet,
drawing too heavily on the present in the
interest of the future, but at that, as we
see it it will prove to be not only profit
able, but priceless investment. VI course
it is on the installment plan,-enjoy the
article while you pay for t,-but it means
the rapid development Of the resources OF
the state almost Immediately after the com.
petition Of the proposed highway, whereas,
on the other hand, to sit idly by until we

Grafton even to the cradle would not see
the completion of the proposed and neces-
sary highways. It's god-like for the living
to prepare for the coming generations, but
it's common sense-like to enjoy some OF your
labors yourself and it is likewise equitable
and just to have the coming generations
bear some Of the burdens Of the luNur1es
they will enjoy. If the proposed highways
can be completed in six years and thereby
give to the state a system Of good roads and
yet the pay for the same he distributed over
forty years then we should have the good
roads that many of us now living may be
able to enjoy such luxury as well as those
who will to do so an hundred years from
now. Fifty years ago our state cap1tol
could only be reached by steam boat; then
came the railroad, but both systems were
both taxing and tiresome and state capital
going was nuisance until splendid paved
highway was built thereto and now in two
hours one can cover the distance from Sc
attic to Olympia in an automobile and our
state capitol is but Seattle suburb. AS in
this instance so would be with the remotest
sections of the state had we paved high
ways running thereto. Of course the veal
thy city citizen is opposing this measure
because it will increase his taxes and at
the end he will not have quite as many
million dollars to leave to his children or
at least he thinks that, but with a system
of highways ramifying themselves through
out the entire state we believe it would add
to rather than detract from the city citi-

farming communities thereabouts are not

But however much needed are the state
highways there are serious objections to the
Carlyon bill, which is to be voted on at
the general election in that it has the ear.
marks of the cement trust Yea, it is cur
rently reported that Carlyon's name as a
matter of deception was given to the bill,
but in fact it should be labeled the Cement
Trust Bill. 1t is argued by those who ought
to know that if the CaryOn road bill should
become a law the cement trust would so
manipulate it's prices that it would get the
big end of the sum voted. How much of
this be true we verify do not know but it
is fact that the cement trust is boosting
for the bill.

TOKENS BEING COUNTERFEITED

Rumor has it that the City Of Seattle is
headed for much trouble in connection with
it's municipal street car system 1t is COM
mon street talk that the tokens issued for
the street car system have been counter
feited and that the city is now flooded
with spurious tokens. A man in our pres
ence one day this week exhibited two
tokens and on close comparison it was
plain to be seen they were not cast from the
same dye; which of them was spurious, if
either it was hard to say, but they were
not alike. Rumor further has it that there
are about as many spurious tokens in cir
culation as genuine ones and that the city
is already losing thousands Of dollars there
by. While Mayor Caldwell is trying to
find out how much swag Oily Hanson got
out of the street car DEAL if the above ru-
mors be true, counterfeiters will soon have
copped the city treasurer of one or two
million dollars. Whether or not the tokens
have as yet been cOunterfeited is mere
speculation, but if they have not it's only
question of very short time before they
will be. The issuing Of those tokens was
a mistake and it is said the authorities were
warned Of the danger, when the idea was
first advocated, but they brushed it aside
with, "evil to him who evil Thinks. - Care

adverse state of the weather, there was
a very creditable showing OF citizens
present at the regular weekly meeting
of the commissioners. Two O'Clock
sharp in the afternoon is the theoretic
hour for these meetings to begin, but
yesterday, the minute hand of the city
clock had nearly reached the first quar-
ter of its circle, befor the Mayors ample
form was seen to protrude itself
through the middle doorway and hur-

lative slab. Once safely seated, no
time was further lost in starting the
official grist mill a-grinding.
The reading of the minutes, spread
upon the record book on January 18th,
consumed scarcely one-sixth of an
hour, and then reports were called for.
During the week ending January 18th,
81, 46I AS was collected in taxes and
assessments, and for the same week
the water rent receipts were $500. 70.

ton Of a defective meter. A resolution
was passed authorizing Mr.. Anderson's
account to be credited to the amount of
this excess bill.
A communication was read from the
Observation-Disclosures Fire Engine Co.
of Elmira, N. Y, acknowledging re-
ccipt of contract signed by our city
officials at last meeting securing one of
this company's engines at their bid of
S11, 500. This company has bound it,

J. G. Price, director of the State De-
