The ol'igi:al estimates of its engineering talent of about three mil- lions for developing the first unit has already been about consumed in preliminaries and the total is advanced to around eleven millions. Engineering vision now looks .forward to the ultimate development of 400,000 horse- power at a cost which might run to one hundred mi!Imns. In addition to the cheap hydro-electric power avail- able Seatl:le has recently completed a fine steam plant with :, capacity of 50,000 horse-power, whictrcan be op.er- ated l mder present fuel conditions at a lower carrying cost than the proposed Skagit plant, considering bond " 4-j, m ..,e t, and this plant would be junked by the new pow- er. The P.-I. termg it foolish and wasteful to proceed with the Skagit, but an outsider knowing that the city is bea, ing a debt burden that will haunt its posterity even to the seventh generation, will merely class its lead- ing citizens as "bug-house." Tacoma, not to be outdone even in lunacy, by its haed rival, is rushing headlong into the same sort of a r., hicipal quagmire. Its citizens have been led by easy stages into approving the early steps and providing a few hundred thousand dollars to acquire the Cushman power site and other mere preliminaries to getting into the million class along with Seattle. Tacoma's need for more power is about as remote as that of Seattle, and we might hazard the guess that when Tacoma people wake up and find out wha4hey'are up against in the future demands for money there'll be some warm times in the City of Destiny. "' Most of us would get along fine if content to pursue our modest way, but the desire to keep up with the pro- cession and tavel in the popular style is responsible for most of our troubles. We must be forward-looking but there is a limit for inc]ividuals as ,well as communities which prudence dictates. BO:UCK AND THE GRANGE That the radical elemenis still in control of the State Grange is indicated by the re-election Of Bouck as its head for another year. It is a matter of regret that the conservative element of the farmers, which must be in the majority, did not prevail in supplanting Bouck who has served his period of usefulness in'that organization. The radical makes lots of noise but in the end will never get anywhere because he lacks stability and balance and his wild appeals are lost on conservative people. Farmers are the most conservative of citizens as a rule, but hey have real grievances and the Grange has been a great power for getting them together for protection along constructive lines, aside from the social advantages. Everybody is friendly to the farmers and the Grange, but few have respect for its head. During the war and since Bouck was lined up with the enemies of this country and shouting for %vohltion; naturally the Grange will not have the conservative element of the farmers behind it while his leadership continues. THE LAW'S DELAYS There are some points abofft the Albers case we do not understand, nor do Others. That he has money does not seem altogether responsible for the law's delays and now "confession 0 rror," Likewise in the case of the Centralia murder "wobblies" who were convicted almost a year ago, yet were held out of the pen until last week sparring the laws and eating in the jail at Montesano at the expense of Lewis county citizens. It is not claimed that they had money, but they seemed to have had their share of the law's favor. iLOCAL POST OFFICE :] ['CAMP MEMBER; CELEBRATE ' CHANGES TO SECOND [ BIRTHDAY OF NEIGHBOR CLASS JULY FIRST '  The  Newatzel Camp No. 8470 of ...... . ...
