Here it is in a nutshell: The enlargement of the business district recommended by the Bogue Plans would relieve the crowded condition of the present business district. What would be the result? Why, the landlords would be unable to exact the high rentals they are now exacting and which are an indirect burden on every average citizen. When you consult an attorney or a doctor today you pay a higher fee by reason of his exorbitant rent. When you make a purchase of a concern in the high-rent district you pay more because of the merchant's exorbitant rental. And So It Goes Right Down the Line It is against the best interests of the city at large to allow THE TAIL to wag THE DOG. YOU are the one to say, and if citizens like yourself who have no SELFISH inter- ests to serve will go to the polls and vote according to THE BEST INTERESTS OF SE- ATTLE, the Bogue Plans will carry REMEMBER, no matter what the opponents of the Bogue Plans may say, the adoption of the Bogue Plans is NOT AN INVITATION to spend the PEOPLE'S money, but A RESTRICTION AGAINST spending the PEOPLE'S money unwisely. REMEMBER, no matter what the opponents of the Bogus Plans may say, the adoption of the Plans will not hasten the improvement of any section before the time is ripe for it, but it will insure the permanence of the improvement when once the locality is ready for it. REMEMBER, no matter what the opponents of the Bogue Plans may say, a vote for the Plans is not a vote to TIE THE PEOPLE’S HANDS from making changes in the Plans whenever the PEOPLE are convinced of the wisdom of such a change, BUT IT IS A VOTE to tie the CITY COUNCIL’S HANDS from making ill-advised changes in the Plans without the PEOPLE'S sanction. REMEMBER, no matter what the opponents of the Bogue Plans may say, the adop- tion of the Plans will NOT increase your taxes one cent, but by providing for highways of easy grade it will insure the delivery of your coal and hay at half the present cost, and This picture of the new Germaf stage scnsation was taken in the costume of Helena.

Municipal League of Seattle The Best Fruit and Farming Land ON PUGET SOUND is at Greenbank, on Whidby Island, where we have opened for settlement about 5,000 acres of logged and partly logged lands, some of which is Maple, Cedar and Alder bottom. Tracts of 5, 10, 20, 40 Acres at Prices Averag- ing About $40 Per Acre. Terms % cash and the balance in twenty gtar- terly payments, with the right to pay all or part any time and stop interest. FRUIT LAND Interest to you to know that from soil analysis periment Station of Washington a sample of to this tract stood high in percentage . If you are a frult man you know that this is a Necessary element in the production of fruit, particularly here there is the proper moisture available at the proper know from four years’ experience in operating our there that moisture is available during the growing AT GREENBANK periments conducted by us during the early years of our ownership of this tract convinced us that the soil, location and climatic conditions at Greenbank are superior to those in other sections of the Puget Sound country. There we escape the floods, drouths and killing frosts. The preva- lence of these in other sections during the growing season {s responsible annually for losses to the farmers aggregating hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a result of experiments made we proceeded to at once develop a portion of the proper- ty for our own use, and up to the present time have construct- ed a wharf and wharf house, a complete gravity water system, supplying water through over five thousand feet of mains, three good dwellings plumbed and modern throughout, a mod- ern barn, chicken houses, wagon house, blacksmith shop and sleeping quarters for the workmen. '@ have established a postoffice and are now erecting a hotel, store and postoffice building. We will commence next month the erection of a silo and modern datry barn, with a capacity of one hundred cows. During the coming summer we expect to have 125 acres under @ high state of cultivation, with 100 acres additional partly cleared. Our plans include high grade horsos, cattle, hogs and chickens, from which purchasers of our tracts will have preference in making selections of stock for their own use when we have it for sale. With the development of a portion of this property we expect to assist in building up one of the most prosperous farming communities in the Puget Sound country. We are also constructing several branch roads from the main county road into portions of the tract opened for settlement, that the purchasers may be able to enter and settle at once upon their holdings. HOW TO SEE THE PROPERTY Do not go to Greenbank unless you are accompanied by someone from our Tacoma or Seattle office. We will be glad to send someone with you any time to look over the unsold tracts, and should you desire to stay over night we have ar- ranged for comfortable accommodations in one of the dwell- ings until such time as the hotel is finished and in operation. We have maps and illustrated matter at our offices that we will be glad to give you, or we will mail it to any address. Mention this paper when writing.
