IAJ TON" is issued as a J)(K>k of utility
ill the nowspaiKT ottiro.
fl Pulilislici's at the present time atta<'li
ail iiiereasiiij; inipertaiire to illustrations.
In fact, in many of the luorleni ue\vsj)ai)ei's,
illustrations arc eonsirlered as e(|ual in im-
portance to news.
fl Xe\vs])a]»ers exhaust every resource to
secure ]>liotot;raplis of persons for rej)ro-
<luction with current news and they are
often compelled to make- illustrations from
old style ruts aii<l ol)s:»lete drawinj^s.
^ ()wiii«!^ to the wonderful a<lvan<'ement of
the State of Washiutrton in all lines of bus-
iness and to the rapid strides toward
national fame of its foremost citizens, it
seems almost a necessity to imhlish a book
which shall contain ])(U-traits and brief bio-
graphical skctclies of the most ])romineni
men in this State.
fl Deteiiniued effort has been made to se
cure the most recent ])hotogra]dis and re-
]n-oduetion has been made carefully in order
that a second halftone may be taken from
the ])ortrait published herein. Extreme
care has been exercised to jniblish only es-
sential biosra])liical data and this has been
secured from the sul)jects themsehTS. This
book has been designed to be an iimuediate
aid to the newspaper artist and biographer.
