POWER BILL is
TAXATION ISSUE
Will Lift Seattle'S Taxes and
Add to Rest of the
State

Seattle, Wash.-Farmers of wash
ington will be sadly deceived if they
give any support whatsoever to the
Bone Bill, Initiative Measure No.
So, in the opinion of William Bishop,
well-known farmer and stock-ralser
of Chimacum Valley, and member of
the state senate. 90
Seattle already has more tax-ex-
empt property, most of it in munich
pal utilities, than the total taxable
valuation of the Is smallest counties
of the state" Senator Bishop said
in Spokane a few days ago. "In other
words, if Seattle's exempt properties
could be taxed the revenue from
this source alone would be equal to
the total tax receipts from fifteen
counties. s< 0s HE ;5f
"What does Seattle now want to
do? Make the farmers and smaller
county property owners pay all the
taxes? The Bone Bill would go a
long way in that direction. 1t would
take all the privately-owned utilities
off the tax rolls, and unload that
much more of burden on the farm
ers. Seattle has never shed any tears
for the small counties; and when
Seattle talks of passing out such
favors as the Bone Bill it is high
time for the rest of the state to be-
ware.
s'The power issue as it may come
before the voters of this state, is a
straight taxation issue. The Reed
Bill would require Seattle to pay some
share of taxes to the state, so Seat
tie is against it. The Bone Bill
would let Seattle go tax-free. so Sc
attic is for it. If Seattle wishes to
relieve more property from city tax
alton, that is Seattle's business; but
Seattle should not expect the rest of
the state to pay heavier taxes to make
up the deficiency.
"There is another point: If Seat
tie, by means of the Bone Bill, should
gain control of power, Seattle would
also gain control of industrial devel-
opment. Seattle would be in a posi-
ton to offer extremely low rates or
even free power to induce industries
to pass up all other sections of the
state. Yet the rest of the state
would have to foot the bill. It's high
time for the farmers and all other
taxpayers to realize what the Bone
Bill actually means"

Company was coming. The atmos.

the very shininess of woodwork and

Of every room, even the nursery,
caused the tired eyes of Johnny's
mother to glow with satisfaction and
the round orbs of Johnny to over
cloud with gloom. ST.. E@
Two busy days of preparation had
brought the heavy droop to the shoul-
ders of the mother, who little realized
how many irritable words had been
thoughtlessly, impaiently directed to
the defenseless laddie. And now when
all was ready and the guests were
due, the fresh, crisp linens that gave
Johnny such smartly starched ap-
pearance merely heightened the un-
easiness that filled the boys heart.
The company arrived and there was
q flood Of warm embraces; the strain
alas! was very hard on Johnny.
Then the long anticipated visiting
began, and who could wonder that the
general relaxation caused all the pent-
up steam in Johnny to burst forth,
most shockingly?
The laddie's mother, near distrac-
ton, thought not OF the reason for it,
but remembered only how fatigued she
was from much unnecessary work.
