eattle, January 23.--One million
dollars is asked from the estate of
the late Henry Hew, it, Jr., who died
in Tacoma in 1918, by William F.
Brown, as one-half of the value of
the timber lands which Brown cruised
and Hewitt selected on contract'to
l.vid¢ venly.
" Brovn wfi a wo0dsmai who ov-
ered the state and ]0icked out choice
sections of timbet' w-hlch Hewitt, who
came from th East in 1888, secured
funds and bought. During the in-
tervening years the timber lands had
become very valuable, but Hewitt
had never taken steps to secure
Brown in his share of the deal.
On the contrary when Hewitt near-
ed his end the Hew,it Investment
Company was organized among the
ttewitt heirs and all the Hew, it prop-
erty was turned over to the concern,
leaving only a few paltry, thousands
to meet creditors and pay income and
inheritance taxes which should accrue
to Uncle Sam.
A part of the 11,000 acres selected
lie in Mason County, and are involved
in the suit by Brown. There are
also other suits for claims and al-
legd contracts by the elder Hewitt
which aggregate several millions, and
promise to test the legality of the
action by which the Hew,it corpora-
tion fell heir to the property.

The cost of shipping in [umber and

needed new housesto be built during
the coming year is not very encour-
aging. But' we feel sure tha this
,:ondition will be changed before long.
There is enough prospective bu,ine.,s
iv Sh, lton, ,d vicinity t keep a
fair-sized sawmill and finishing plant
going, and an unlimited field' for a
