To the Voters of the 10th Leg
iSlative District:
During the last few years we
have heard a great deal of the
proposition Of county and city
consolidation. Heretofore we have
considered this proposition more
or less an idea Of few politicians
in Seattle and would not believe
that the people Of Seattle were
seriously behind it. During the
last couple Of years, however, sen
timcnt in Seattle has been solidi.
fed in favor of it so that it is now
the one hobby and the one aim of
the people of Seattle, their idea
being to take all Of King county
into the City of Seattle. Last
week we called your attention to
the fact that the municipal tax
levy for the City Of Seattle this
year amounts to about 30 mills
Now the question for you to CON
slider is: Do you want your farms
taken into the city and subjected
to this additional 32-mill tax levy?
And this is not all that would hap
pen. Each town and village in The
county would lose control Of its
own local affairs and would be
controlled and governed by the
council of Seattle. For instance,
if street light is wanted on
certain corner III Auburn, Enum-
claw or Kent, you would have to
90 to Seattle and ask their council
to install such a street light and
they would use their own discrc-
ton about doing it. 4 lso,
the same council, that is, the coun-
ell Of Seattle, would decide
whether or not you would have
police officer in any country,
town Or village or not. In other
words your local affairs would be
governed from the city hall in Sc
attic. You would have nothing to
say about it. We are convinced
that the people of the 10th legis-
lative district DO not want county
and city consolidation.
I'M

cludc the part of King coun-
ty south of Seattle, are the only
legislative districts in the county
which lie wholly in the country.
Therefore every member of both
the Senate and House of Repre-
Sentatives from King county, ex-
ccpt our own, will be boosting for
the county and city consolidation
project
a county and city consolidation
bill was introduced in the legisla-
ture in 1921, but Senator Howard
Taylor and Representatives. Lunn,
Mess and Jones succeeded in
blocking it, 1t was again intro
duccd in 1923 but Senator Lunn
and Representatives McKimon.
Mess and Case again succeeded in
blocking it. Each time, however,
it has been our Senator and our
three representatives VINO have
blocked this bill, They have been
opposed by all other legislative
members from King county. Here
tOfore the sentiment on the qucs-
ton in Seattle has been more or
less divided but now they are
united in their demand for county
and city consolidation and they
will make desperate effort to get
such IA bill through the coming leg
iSIature and if they succeed in
getting the Legislators from Spo-
kane and Tacoma to join them we
will need the strongest possible
representatives from this district
to oppose it or the bill will go
through and you will be waited
into the city of Seattle with the
inevitable increase in your taxes
aud lose control of your local af-
fairs.
The hope of this diStrist in
blocking the city-comty consoli-
datlon project is j. A. Mckinnon.
No doubt anyone elected from this
district will vote against such a
bill. But for our representatives
to vote against it would mean
simply three votes ana would
amount to nothing We must have
at least one man who can WELD
sufficient influence to muster
scores of votes against it or the
project will 60 through. The most
Influential man in the legislature
is Mr.. McKimon and he and he
alone can and will muster the
necessary strength to defeat the
comty-city consolidation plan. We
earnestly believe that if Mr.. Nc
kinnon is defeated the county-city
plan will go through the coming
legislature, and we believe that
if he is reelected he will be able
to defeat it.
Therefore remember that a vote
for Mckinnon is a vote against
county-city consolidation and a
vote against him is in reality a
vote for county and city CONSOLE
dation.
Procure your sticker before go
ing to the polls and do not neglect
voting for McKinnon.-Adv.
Respectfully,
McKINNON

Although constantly threaten
ing Moran's goal line, Vashon
was defeated Friday, October II,
on the local field by score Of
20 to 3.
A touchdown by Vashon ap-
peared likely in the first quarter
of play because of Moran's ina
bllity to hold them to downs. Har-
old Wards drop kick scored the
first points Of the game, and the
only ones for Vashon.
A ninety-yard run by Ward on
ly to be downcd about five yards
from the goal line and Matthew's
constant gains by end runs and
line bucks were the features for
Vashon. Don and Bob Levensel-
Ter scooped up several long pas
SEES and Bridgeman did some beau
tiful and effective tackIlng.
Although the score was against
them, the game was conceded by
many spectators to Vashon. The
local gridders had the ball in Nor
ans territory most of the game
although seemingly unable to
make a touchdown. The showing
made by the team was most credi-
table, according to the coach.
A program will be given the last
period each Friday by the differ
ent classes in turn. Every fifth
week the period will be turned
