Washington Brieflets Shows Tacoma School Census Drop
Tacoma's school census reveals a 542 decline from last year. The Cushman Indian School near Tacoma would receive 50000 for a new building as specified in the Indian appropriation bill. Senate irrigation funds for Yakima lands rise to 75000 and 1600000 is allocated to irrigate 120000 acres on the Yakima Indian reservation. Hoquiam recalls its first commission mayor, and Vancouver’s status on electric line rights of way is debated. A Spokane apple show is planned with a $60000 drive for the greater Spokane fund.
