This story written by Kenneth Romuey, elass of Journalism 1910, University of Washington, was awarded the class honors in a recent competitive contest. It gives a good pen picture of Seattle, the coming me tropolis of the Pacific The tense energy that characterizes American life in tms age of its com plex development, is exemplified by the western city of Seattle. This giant of the Pacific coast, beyond which daring and adventure cannot advance without plunging into the sea, is a city apart from type, even in that land where novelty abounds. The call of conquest, and the strange lure of mighty conflict have drawn the vigor ot the west into its swirling vortex of activity. As with San Francisco, nature placed a splendid harbor at ths gates of the city. The potentiality of this great gift is felt by every resident of Seattle. A commerce of immense volume is floated across its bosom, and the waterfront is the center and support of the city's business life, as well as the chief point of interest. A spell of enchantment hangs perpetually over Puget Sound. The dweller from the plains, peering out oyer the water, feels that the fabled west is no more. Here it literally merges into the east; here at last is the goal toward which our Aryan foreiathers set their faces six thou sand ye^rs ago. For sixty centuries civilization has advanced toward this spot—and now what is beyond? Only the east whence it came. China, with its teeming population; Japan, my stical and aliunng. All sorts of craft ply on the waters ot the sound. Deep-bottomed ships, laden with heavy cargoes lrom the Orient; trim passenger boats, carry ing week-end callers from Tacoma; "side wheelers,'' bearing tourists to the United States navy yard at Brern er to 11 ; sorely tried craft bringing Alaskan miners back to civilization after long exile in the "sadness and mystery of the north;" fishing smacks, pleasure launches—all these share the democracy of the sound. They can 6e seen almost any day. The chill, gray mists that shroud the harbor serve only to increase the deep-toned chortling of the water craft, which lias in it both dismay and delight. Second avenue, the city 's principal street, though scarcely more then First, forces its importance on the man who walks for the first time up its crowded pavements. What man ner of men were these who leveled hills and gradea over their fallen ummits this imposing thoroughfare? 1 l sweeps down from Beacon hill to the brink ot the Second, flanked with a varied array of business build ings. At the side of a massive steel stiucture fourteen storms high stands a tumble down frame building erected in early days in all the pre tension the times justified. At the head of the avenue looms the Wash ington hotel, rising to a height of thirteen stories on the base of a fallen bill which once threatened the utility of the street. The voluptuous appoint ments of this hostelry gives it rank with the best types of Chicago and ! New York. In the same block is the magnificent Moore theatre, where i between acts one can hear plashing music of Puget Sound. Down the street is 1 He Bon Marche, the guide post of those unfamiliar with the city. Pioneer Square, a small triangular plot of ground in which stands the lar-famed totem pole, is the city's revered historic spot. It lies in the center of First avenue, in the core of the business district. The commerce of the street eddies about it on all sides. Northing genuine emanates fri in Seattle without reference to this totem pole. Its mission appears to be to supply local color. Huddled into small compass on Wash ington street is the Jewish quarter of the city. Squalis pawn-shops are set among outdoor lunch-stands where mute, greasy Italians dispense "hot -dog "sandwiches. To this Rialto flock the luckless and oppressed when hunger impels them to pledge a family heirloom or jewels encrusted with tender associations. The stream of anguish seems never to grow less, while avarice daily exacts its pound of flesh. The shade of Shyloek sus enthroned above the wretched scene of bargaining, scoffing at the ills of humanity. At night on this street the agitator barks to eager groups of men whom necessity makes attentive. Here also the socialist, seeking tHe field of despair, nightly exploits his doctrine on the sodden underworld. Seattle is so pre-eminently a city of individuality that its story could be expanded into a volume. The enig matic climate, the puzzling topogra phy and the ever present expectancy of its people are alike distinctive characteristics. The glamour of busi ness success, however, obscures the romantic aspect, save to those who look beneath the surface of events. To the world it seeks to be known as mistress of the Pacific northwest, and its ambition lies in the fullest develop ment of the Seattle spirit—"the spirit that moves Mountains." THE STORK IS INTERESTED. Even the stork is interested in Dr. Jonnesco's stovaine and strychnine anaesthetic. A writer in the New York World says: "This morning there flut ters out of Manhattan and across Jer sey to the city of Penn a wondrous bird. It flutters on noiseless, nerveless, pain less wings, for it accompanies the Rou manian scientist, Prof. Jonnesco. It is the same old stork that all humanity has known for all time and that Presi dent Roosevelt feared was going out of business in America, but it has a new name. Its name is Stovaine. On last Thursday morning the World told how Prof. Jonnesco had said in the Post Graduate hospital that when the new stork went to a home his flight was rapid and was a 'blessing to moth erhood.' Yesterday at the Hotel Knick erbocker Prof. Jonnesco confirmed this statement. T am confident,' said he, 'lhat it is destined to bring j >y into millions of homes where now the alight ing of that sacred bird that you Amer icans call the stork brings sometimes sorrow and anguish." Nowhere did the announcement that the new anaes thetic was as useful in childbirth as in any surgical operation, create more discussion than at Beilevue, that great center of suffering and sorrow. All the surgeons had read that, in the Post Graduate and ether hospitals, men had undergone difficult operations fully conscious after stovaine had been in jected; but that stovaine would remove the dread that hangs over the lives of so many women was a surprise. In fact, there seemed to be doubt about the advisability of trying the new an aesthetic in maternity wards until it had been thoroughly tried and ap proved elsewhere." Resolution No. 29. Whereas, heretofore the town of Hamilton has granted to the Anaconda Mining Company, a franchise and privilege to lav and maintain in and along the streets of the town of Ham ilton certain water pipes to carry and conduct water for the purpose of sup plying said town of Hamilton and the residents thereeff with water and for other purposes set forth in said ordi nance, and Whereas, the Valley Mercantile Com pany, a Montana corporation, by reason of certain mesne conveyances has be come the owner of and entitled to the enjoyment of said franchise and priv ileges thereby granted, and Whereas, pursuant to said ordinance certain water pipes have been laid in and along the streets of said town and are maintained for the purpose pro vided in said ordinance, and as a part of said plant other pipes have been laid outside of said town, and Whereas, heretofore the town of Hamilton has created an improvement district, known as "Improvement Dis trict No. 1" of said town and has en tered into a contract with Burrill Bridge Company of San Francisco, Calif, to construct a sewer or sewers within said district and which sewers require right of way outside of the limits of said town and has undertaken to furnish a right of way for the con struction of said sewer system whether inside or outside of the town limits, and Whereas, in the construction of said sewer system, it is found that some of the water mains of said Valley Mer. cantile Company are laid at the same depth and grade as the pipe foi the pro posed sewer system will be laid and that it is necessary in the construction of said sewer system that the pipe be laid on an exact or even grade and in order to accomodate said sewer pipe and lay the same on an exact and even grade, the water mains of said Valley Mercantile Company within or outside of the corporate limits of said town will have to be raised or lowered, whichever operation is deemed the more convenient or less dangerous to the water main in question, which change in water mains will entail con siderable expense and will subject said mains to the danger of becoming broken, or having loose joints, or other wise weaken the same and render said mains more liable to breaking and leak age than if they were permitted to re main undisturbed, and Whereas, said Valley Mercantile Company requires some guaranty on the part of the town of Hamilton that the expense of making the necessary changes in the grade of its water mains shall be borne by said town and that in the event and after such change in the location and grade the said water mains should be broken or rendered incapable of performing the use re quired of them or caused to leak or be otherwise damaged that said town will be responsible therefor to said Valley Mercantile Company.
