PALMER BILL GIVES
KING more Members
At Least 10 Counties Are De.
priVed of ANY Representa-.
ton in Legislature.

The Palmer Initiative Bill No. As.
which seeks to deprive at least thir-
teen counties of any membership in
the legislature while it increases King
county's strength to $3.50 of both the
House and Senate, apparently typifies
Seattle's willingness to save the Cow
counties the trouble Of doing any leg
islating.
All the referendum bills of last year
and all but one of the initiative meas.
ures filed thus far have come from
Seattle proponents. And the big drive
for signatures is made in Seattle. too.
1t requires approximately 10000 sig
natures of voters to initiate a bill and
Seattle already has more than $4,000
registered voters. SO if half the yot-
ing population of Seattle could be
reached and found willing to sign an
initiative bill, that city alone could
force the rest of the state to the an
noyance and expense of an election.
The busy Seattle propaganda can,
figuratiyely speaking, sit in his front
door yard and call enough neighbors
to his aid to start an election fight
with its attendant costs in checking
the signatures, advertising the meas.
ures and campaigning for and against
the issue
After his last effort to force a legfs-
latiye reapportionment bill through
the legislature failed in 1921, Senator
r. b. Palmer boldly announced he was
going home and initiate a bill for he
had votes enough in Seattle to get it
on the ballot. And 50 he is doing.
Thrifty King county is not so badly
hit on the item of expense as is the
rest of the state for a recent statement
issued by the department of efficiency
shows King has $173,796, 709 worth of
taXeXempt property, or nearly half
that of the whole state Cities and
towns in King have sos, 442,551 worth
of property that escapes taxes that
have to be made up in the Cow coun-
ties"
And another Seattleite has filed mi
tiatiYe Bill No. "A which would give
Seattle home rule and allow the city
to extend its taX-eXempt operations.
Under Initiative Bill No. "A Seattle
could engage in farming, coal mining,
run grocery stores. packing plants,
meat markets, transportation lines in
side or outside the city on, above or
under the ground or water, operate
telephone lines, gas or electric proper
ties inside or outside the city or enter
a dozen other lines of manufacture or
business wherever it saw fit. As mu.
nicipally-owned properties they also
would be exempt from taxation.

EMBARRASS CRAYS HARBOR
Attached to Remote Counties to Make
Up Senatorial District.


If, by some fIuke, Seattle should sue
coed in passing Palmer's Initiative Bill
No. 40 that reapportions membership
in the legislature so as to give King
county practical control, Grays Harbor
would be placed in an embarrassing po-
siiou
In his efforts to get enough "popu-
Iatiou' into the Grays Harbor legisla-
tive district, Palmer attached CIalIam.
Jefferson and Mason counties TO make
up a senatorial district. An area of
TAOS square miles-three and half
times that of King county for which
Palmer demands six senators, is in
cluded in the proposed senatorial dis,
trict and part Of the territory has to
be covered by trails, only a small pOr-
ton being accessible by railroad. There
are many Grays Harbor interests that
conflict with those Of Puget Sound.
yet Palmer expects one senator to rep
resent both. If a senator in such
district wished to 90 from Aberdeen
to visit a constituent in Port Angeles.
he would be Obliged to travel through
Thurston, Pierce and King counties

unless he followed the Pacific Ocean
beach and the trails west of the Olym-
pics, either coming out by way of
Forks and motoring in or crossing the
divide and picking his way down the
Solduc trail
And Palmer Oh, Palmer carved out
a senatorial district for himself in
Seattle that is so compact that prob
ably half his constituents pass the cor
