OLYMPIA SEEKS ALLIANCE. Asks Aid of Seattle In the State Capi tal Fight. Tho Uanguo'a ghost of Washington, the state capital question, still refuses to down, and Is now walking abroad in the land again, thlB time having been stirred up by the people of the muni cipality on Commencement bay. This question has bothered the people In so many ways and has Interfered so seriously with the growth of Olympia that It Is felt necessary to secure a settlement for all time. AlUm Weir, on behalf of the Olympia chamber of commerce, of which he is provident, haa laid before the Seattle chamber of commerce a proposition for an alliance between Olympia and Se attle on the state capital question. The details of the propose alliance, as stat ed by Mr. Weir, follow: On condition that the Seattle cham ber of commerce will memorialise the atute legislature to leave the state capi tal at olympia and will use its Influ ence with the King county delegation to the same effect, the merchants of Olympia will organize a protective as sociation pledged to turn their entire trade to the wholesalers of Seattle In stead of continuing to deal with those of Tacoma. as at present. Mr. Weir estimates the average value of this trade at between 115,000 and 120,000 a month, with a steady Increase. When Governor Isaac I. Stevens ar rived in Washington he designated Olympia as its capital, asd there It remained through the tentorial days, despite frequent agitations for its re moval. With the admlslon to statehood It was generally thought that the ques tion would be finally and definitely set tled. The constitutional convention so thought, and refused to name any city, but provided a method of choice by the people which it was thought 'would se cure a permanent location. It was stip ulated that there should be no perma nent capital until some city should receive a majority ot all the votes cast at a general election. In case of there being no majority at the first election the three highest cities should be tak en and voted on again and again until one received a majority. This method was followed, and In the election the capital was located at Olympia by an overwhelming majority. REAL ESTATE. James S.
