THE ARMORY SITE ministration, King county le | as deep in the mud ad the Queen City | in the mire, The Star'e*photograph of the rear elevation of posed armory ublished yesterday eve ning, gives ooular stration of that fact It is easy to shout “graft!” and “boodle!™ It is generally cult to prove that t e and ory is just. In this case it is not. One look at the foriorn bit of wantain $33,000 landscape for which it is proposed that the « shall pay of the people's money Vinee taxpayer that more has been doing in than appears on the « e One cannot blame the big corporation which owns that barren seo. | tion of cliff and canyon for wishing to sell it to the county for an armory site. In view of the fact thit it is due to slide into the bay obtain But for the county and city offic whe have given the shady looking deal their approval, there ie no exow The county comm sioners must know, and if they de not, their own records will te | | them j | that the value of the proposed armory site has been grossly over-es od timated. Two members of the board, on their oath of office, have cor » ry tified that it is worth far less than one-half the price asked. Other |i) wise, why was it assessed for taxes at less than $9000. Possibly Seattle needs am armory for the National guard, Pos y sibly also it would be wel! for the county to buy @ site and thereby ava itself of the state appropriation for a new armory building But - : will take a monstrous amount of showing to convince the people wh ’ fot the bills that there is any justification for the purchase of the og Lenora street property. SThe se-calle’ armory beard hee made 0 serious mistakes, but tor- | Qunately for the people it is met too late to rectify it if the board will be asked. And it avoid embarrassing explanations. ' The county does not need that hanging garden in its business, at Yeast not if it is to cost $33,000. In fact, it is doubtful whether the | preperty would be worth having as a gracious gift for a building site, | m ; The county already has one white elephant on its hands in the shape | » ij of @ courthouse on which the commissioners say the people are too | i poor to build a courthouse, Another white elephant is the site of the present courthouse on Profanity hill, | The Star would advice the armory board te make haste slowly In | welt : adding another animal to the herd.
