Tho Orcgonlnn says: "Will tho United States equip nil futuro lighthouse tondors with guns so thoy mny bo utilized ns auxiliary naval vessels In times of stress? "That query Is being propounded because of provision in plans nnd specifications for tho tender Cedar, to bo built for tho Alaska district, for four C-poundors to bo mounted thereon.

Drydon'a Marino History of tho Northwest, says In that pub lication: " 'As steamers woro scarco In those days, in addition lo her duties uh revenue cutter nnd lighthouse tender, she carried mall, freight and passengers and performed othor nec essary work.
