ing legal authority for great dn-
clusiveness as to the name Captain
George B. McClelland, in 1853,
wrote: II mean here, by Puget
Sound, the sheet of water made up
of the sound properly so called, Ad-
miralty Inlet, Bellingham Bay, etc."
In 1857, James G. Swan uttered
complaint as follow: "a strange
geographical error has gained cred
ence in the commercial world Of
calling all of the waters on the
north of Washington Territory Pu-
get Sound. This error has been
principally caused by ignorant news
paper reporters who always report
vessels arriving from any of the
different ports in Fuca Strait as
from Puget Sound
On August Z, 1859, General w.
S. Harvey, United States Army,
wrote to the senior officer Of the
United States Navy commanding
the squadron on the Pacific coast:
II have the honor to enclose for
your information a copy of pro-
clamation of Governor Douglas, the
executive officer of her Brittanic
Majesty's Island of Vancouver in

ington Territorial legislature adopted
memorial to Secretary of State
Seward in regard to the San Juan
Islands, situated in the waters of
Puget Sound" In Bellingham, May

perior Court of Clallam County,
rendered decision holding that, for
the purposes of the fishing laws, the
Straits Of Juan de Fuca is part

BUDGET LAWS AND TAXES

The passing of budget laws by
several counties and states is an
other instance of the futility of pass
ing laws in the hope that the pas
sage in itself will remedy conditions.
Usually what is actually effected is
desire on the part of the persons
whom the laws seek to curb to evade
the issue in some other manner. In
the case of budget laws this rem
edy is to make padded estimates and
to raise in addition contingency
fund for emergencies. Hence the
burden of good administration still
lies, as ever, upon the taxpayer,
who must satisfy himself that esti-
mates are not padded. Which is
whipping the devil round the stump.

icle.

PUGET SOUND

That the name Puget Sound as.
used today is applied to a far great
er body of water than was intended
in the naming Of the original Puget
Sound is one of the interesting his
torical facts brought out by Prof.
Edmond S. Meany of the University
of Washington in his book on THE
Origin of Washington na1es."
Telling of the discovery of the
original Sound Professor Meany
says that while anchored near Res
toration Point, opposite the present
site of Seattle, Captain Vancouver
sent Lieutenant Peter Puget and
Mr.. Whidbey in launch to ex-
plore the water to the southwark.
They started on Saturday, May 10,
1892 and were to take the west
passage. One week later, Captain
Vancouver and Lieutenant Joseph
Baker followed in the yawl, taking
the eastern passage. Discovering the
large island between the two chan
nels, it was named Vashon Island
in honor of Captain James Vashon
of the British Navy. Both parties
had returned to the ships by May
20, when the record shows: '"Thus
by our joint efforts, we had com
pletely explored every turning OF
this extensive inlet; and to com.
memorate Mr.. Puget's exertions, the
south extremity of it / named
Puget's Sound" The chart in Van.
couver's work shows the name to
apply to the bays and inlets south
of the present Tacoma and The
Narrows.
William A. Slocum, purser in
the United States Navy, was sent
10 the Pacific Northwest in 1886
In memoir dated March 26, 1887
he refers to the Straits of Juan de
Fuca" and "Pugitt's Sound" thus
extending the name SO as to include
Admiralty Inlet. The Wilkes Expe
dition, 1S41, clung to Vancouver
purpose and applied the name south
of The Narrows.

TO BUILD WIDER ROADS

Country roads and city streets to
be laid out in Great Britain will have
a right-of-way 12O feet wide in most
instances and 100 feet wide as a
If present plans of the
government are carried out. Be-
cause motor traffic has made it OBJ
vious that the old narrow country
roads are not in these days safe,
public enthusiasm in England has
greeted the official plan for the
widening of existing roads and the
establishment of the 120-foot width
as the official standard for the fu-
ture.
Long before the war the highways
of England had become rivals of the
railways through the use Of motor
trucks and steam traction engines,
often hauling several trailers, each
with capacity of tons. The road
bore this traffic we'll and their splen-
did maintenance has enabled these
highways to stand up under much
heavier traffic than 80 per cent OF
American roads receive. The plans
of the British government will in
volve a total of several thousand
miles of additional new construction
destined to make London the center
of the most adequately roaded sec
ton in the world.
The United States, just embark
ing with governmental assistance
upon the construction of an inter
state, nationwide, primary highway
system, will do well to consider the
conclusions which an infinitely
greater experience has forced .upor
British highway authorities. While
few of our roads need a right-of-waJ
120 feet in width at the presen
time, that our growing traffic re
quirements now demand mucl
greater width is certain.

PLAN LEATHER INVESTIGATION

An organized movement for i'm
proving the present quality of leath-
err and decreasing it's cost was start
ed under way at the annual conven-
ton Of the Tanners Council of Amer
lea in Chicago recently.
The American Institute of Meat
Packers is deeply interested in the
project, and has put into effect in
their own membership practices to-
ward the improvement of the quality
of leather and the salvage of raw
material that has been wasted in the
past through careless cutting off Of
hides. DR.. Arthur Lowenstein, of
Wilson & Co., spoke to the conven-
ton on the subject of improvement

Mrs. Budlong. Mrs. Budlong ran the

the name was as unsuitable as we'll

neat blue serge suit, blue polka-dot

Strictly, Mrs. Stott did not belong
in the group in which she was seat

Wallies voice took on sympa-
thetic tone. He stopped in front of
a chair where a very thin young lady
was reclining languidly.
"How's the bad heart today, Miss
Eyester?"
About as usual, Wallie,- thank
