lust then we were taken
across the street to the build
ing in which the governor had
his office. I was a happy
change. We went into large.
cheerful room. bright fire
burning. and cases full Of books
which seemed TO smile at US.
We soon had a good repast and
felt comfortable at last. In
few days We were at house
keeping. very pleasant indeed,
and all picking up in health.
Such was the introduction Of
a refined. cultured woman, TO
the rough, uncouth life of the
Northwest. But like the thor
ouehbred she was. Mrs. Stevens
soon adjusted herself to the new
conditions. Left to her own re-
sources because of duties which
took the governor away from
home a great deal. Mrs. Stevens
put in her time horseback rid
ing. She sometimes rode TO
Steilacoom 20 miles away, and
soon established a wide acquain-
lance. She also had a boat built
and made trips about the Sound.
One of her favorite trips was
to the mission in charge Of
Fathers Richard and Banehet.
There were great beds of flow
ers. vegetable gardens and or
chards which reminded her Of
the old home.
The second legislature met in
December. In his message Gov.
Stevens urged the legislature to
memorialize congress to aid in
the construction of roads and
to hasten the extinction of the
Hudson's Bay company title to
Washington territory lands He
also recommended organization
of an efficient militia.
He reiterated his former rec
ommendation for the construc-
ton of road through Naches
pass as a military necessity and
to encourage settlement of the
Puget Sound country. In that
connection he said:
1T would be a great conven-
fence TO those travelling this
road should the legislature take
some step toward sowing with
grass seed the small prairie
known as Bare tBear) prairie
situated little below the mouth
of Green river and on the sides
of the mountain known as La
Tete. These points are inter-
mediate in the long distance
destitute of grass and are al
most necessarily stopping places
on the march. A very small sum
would cover the expense of
planting them and the advan-
tage would be incalculable."
But some of the wiseacres in
the legislature retorted that
Gov. Stevens needn't try to
plant grass where God Almighty
didn't make it grow" They re-
jected the humane and sensible
suggestion and finally aban-
doned the Naches road idea, a
highway so greatly needed to-
day.

income large enough to come
under this tax are we'll off,
which l do not deny anyone,
but that is a source of tax which
keeps money in circulation.
Those on the WPA and of
small income pay a larger tax
for what they earn and still
have put on more, which is a
hardship for any family. 1t is
time those who are able to pay
share the burden if they call
themselves real Americans. Too
many tax exemptions for the
wealthy have been carried by
the few and it is time those
who control the wealth pay their
just part of government.
Only through distribution of

NCON SISTENCIES IN

Editor, The Times: In his adj

dent Roosevelt said, AT the very
least we can and should avoid
any action or any lack of action
which will encourage, assist or
build up an aggressor."
The records are replete with
the proof of our unstinted aid to
the agGressor nations. Relative
to Japan alone, may l submit
some figures presented by Sen.
Pope of Idaho in the last con-
gress figures revea ling the
United States shares in Japan's
imports of essentials for war
purposes: Copper, 92.9 per cent;
automobiles and parts, 912; all
oil sos; pig iron 41.6; other
iron. 59.7 machinery and en-
gines. 49, zinc, 204; total in
aggregate. 344."
According to the L. S. Cham
Japan in 1888 tthe first 10
monthsl AS. 900 tons of scrap

Yet these figures do not record
our full support to Japan in wag-
ing that barbarous and un1usti-
fled war in China. According TO
the March issue of the Con-
gressional Record, during a de-
bate in the house on the war
appropriations bill, Rep. Wade
Kitchen of Arkansas presented
some amazing facts.
In addition to the huge sup
plies Of war materials TO Japan,
private industry sends its expert
technicians and engineers who
are ensconced in Tokyos finest
hotels and are treated like
princes in return for their serv-
ices in building up Japan's war
machine. Said Rep Kitchen,

Bismarck, the great German
statesman and founder of the
first German empire. was one
day talking to a rather distin-
guished English statesman. The
Englishman remarked that he
had never been in the diplomatic
service, though he had done
aome excellent duty in parlia-
ment and that he wished he had
gone into the diplomatic service.
The chancellor thought for a
space. then said;

another dreary December morn
ing in 1854. Gov. Stevens and

spent another uncomfortable
dav. Portions of the road were
worse even than the ten miles
from Cowlitz landing to jack
sons prairie on which they had
spent the previous day. Al
Saunders bottom. now Cheha-
lis. the mud was knee deep for
two miles. After crossing the
Skookumchuck, a much better
road traversed the prairie and
by dark the party reached the
comfortable home of Judge Sid
ney S. Ford. another haven for
weary travellers seeking homes
in the Northwest wilderness.
Like the John r Jacksons, the
Sidney Fords radiated hospital
ity.
The next day. after 30-mile
drive over much better roads,
the tired party reached Olympia.
Rain had fallen steadily nearly
all day. The road from Tum-
water to Olympia. a narrow
track threading a dense forest,
was ankle deep in mud. Antici-

capital which she had envi-
stoned as something like the
capitals of the East. had i'm

she sank to the depths of de-
SPAR at the first view of the
capital of Washington territory.
She now tells the story:
AT night. ascending a hill
after travelling all day, we
were told. There is Olym-
pia.' Below us in the deep
mud were a few low, wood
en- houses at the head of
Puget Sound. For the first
time in my life. my heart
sank at the prospect.
After blowing through the
mud ankle deep. we went to the
principal hotel to stay until our

But there seemed no rest
for the weary Upon being ush-
cred into the public parlor l
found the room full of people
from far and near who had
come to inspect us. The room
was full. One of the children
still suffering from the Panama
fever was cross and took no
notice of anything that was said
to her. When one of the women
said, What a cross child !
