Maxey THE NIAGARA OF OUR NORTHWEST In the mountains of the Cascade range, southeast of the city of Seattle. In the state of Washington, three rollicking streams, born of melted snow, tumbling from the heights above, run together and form one larger stream. This broader, deeper stream, the Snequalmle river, meanders along through peaceful valleys, fringed by heavilytimbered lands, presses onward between great hills which threaten to stop its course and then, all of a sudden, in the midst of surroundings of great beauty, flows over a sharp ledge and pours down gracefully Into a deeply-carved gorge 270 feet below. For centuries this nature-made spectacle, unknown, played its part in the general scheme of the universe. Even to this day it Is practically unheard of nationally and Is sought out by but a very few of the thousands of well-in-tentioned folks who, intent upon broadening their horizon of information and getting acquainted with their own country, journey across the continent to see what the other side Is like. But the remarkable phenomenon of a river, hidden away amid the forests and mountains, deliberately dropping a straight 270 feet, and then continuing on its way to the sea, was destined to and did, eventuallg, come Into Its own as the development of our wa-ter-power resources began to claim attention. The enormous potential power represented in this great waterfall deserved and received recognition. Engineers set to work to compel this falling water to end its wasteful and meaningless career and turn its energy to useful pursuits. And so it came to pass that an electrical generating plant was constructed a few hundred feet above the falls. Later a second pow-er-producing plent was installed at the river’s edge just below the falls. Now the force of the water which forms this great cataract Is made to turn the machinery that develops hundreds of thousands of horse power of electrical energy. Much of this energy Is transmitted long distances through the medium of heavily Insulated high-tension cables and lights and otherwise serves the fast-growing cities of the Puget Sound region. Thus, without marring Its beauty, man has made this majestic God-made waterfall serve his majesty, the American Citizen, (®. 1981.
