A voice of protest is raised in Ma-
i son County, apparently too iote to
ihave effect, against the taking over
of a water power site on the North
fork o :the Skokomish river • to gen-
erate current for the exclusive use
of the people of Tacoma. The Shelton
J0mmal points out to residents of the
county the los that will be sustained
in this great potentiality. It pictures
tle industrial plants that might ];ave
come near to the source of electrical
pply and given to the county taxa-
ble propey that would have borne
half tte cost of county government.
And it points out the process by
5 cents a line (six words) in
classified columng. Minimum
charge 25c; twice for 40 cents;
three times for 50 cents. 10
cents a line on local page; 30
cents minimum. Cash or stamps
must accompany all orders.
