Organizational History
On October 19, 1885 the Seattle Electric Company, the earliest pred-
ecessor of the present Puget Sound Power & Light Company, was organized.
It began generating electricity on March 22, 1886. During the next ten
years as many as 30 small electric companies operated within Seattle, but
most were lost to financial insolvency and merger by 1899. During this
same period the Stone & Webster Service Corporation was formed and began to
provide management for small utilities nationwide. In 1899 Stone & Webster
was engaged to study the competitive situation in Seattle. The result was
a consolidation in 1900 which placed most of the power, light and railway
-services in Seattle under the management of the newly organized Seattle
Electric Company and thus established the city's first unified electric
system. The increasing electrical demands of the following decade necessi-
tated further mergers among the more than 50 separate utilities in the
Puget Sound region, from which emerged five major operating companies.
On July 8, 1912 Puget Sound Traction, Light & Power came into existence
and was incorporated in the State of Massachusetts, under the management
of Stone & Webster. The properties purchased and consolidated to form Puget
Sound Traction, Light & Power included those of the five major power compa-,
nies in the region: The Seattle Electric Company, Seattle-Tacoma Power
Company, Pacific Coast Power Company, Puget Sound Power Company, and Whatcom
County Railroad & Light Company. The connection of these separate facilities
and territories was the beginning of the first r_egional power service in
Western Washington.
Jacob Furth, Seattle banker, railway organizer and president of Seattle
Electric Company served as president of the company until his death in 1914. 2
He was succeeded by A. W. Leonard, who directed the company until 1931, when it became a subsidiary of Engineers Public Service Company. From
1931 until 1959 PSP&L was led by Frank McLaughlin.
The company's name was changed to Puget Sound Power & Light in 1920 following the sale of the Seattle street railway system to the City. During the decade of the 1920's the company acquired additional power companies and expanded to serve 19 counties. Two major companies acquired in 1924 were the North Coast Power Company in southwest Washington and Washington
Coast Utilities in central and western Washington. In the 18 years following its incorporation, PSP&L absorbed 128 separate companies.
Puget also expanded its rail service during the early 1920's. A stage line was developed, which by 1924 furnished most of the interurban railway service in the Puget Sound region. The company also operated the street railway sys.terns in Bellingham, Everett, Tacoma, Olympia, Chehalis, Centralia and Vancouver, Washington. With the demise of electric transportation, however, Puget decided to concentrate on the sale of electricity and in 1947 sold its subsidiary, North. Coast Transportation Company, to the Greyhound
Corporation.
The 1930's marked the turning point in the company's expansion. In
1930 the State Legislature passed a Public Utility District law which granted
PUD's the power to condemn privately owned electric property. For the next
20 years PSP&L was continually involved in litigation with PUD's and was forced to sell much of its distribution system. The first effective condem- nation suit was that of Clallam County in 1944. In 1948 the company sold properties in Cowlitz, Mason, Chelan, Grant, Douglas, Lewis, Pacific and
Grays Harbor Counties. Its large territory in Snohomish County was sold in
1949, and in 1951 its Seattle properties were sold to City Light. In the early 1950 1 s Puget considered a plan to sell its remaining properties to the 3
combined PUD's and in 1953 resisted a merger with Washington Water Power
Company.
The 1940's produced additional legal setbacks for PSP&L. In 1940
Federal Power Connnission hearings investigated the political expenditures
of five power companies, including PSP&L. The hearings determined that the
utilities, during the period 1935-40, had spent large sums of money to
further their political interests and influence public opinion while
charging some of these expenses to operating costs.
The 1935 Public Utility Holding Act forced the breakup of large utility
holding companies such as Engineers Public Service Company. PSP&L was forced
to reorganize and recapitalize and in 1943 severed its connection with
Engineers Public Service Company. In 1960 Puget reincorporated in Washington
State.

Notes on Source of Records
Records in Accession #2250 were stored in a Bellingham building owned by PSP&L when the University acquired them in 1974. At that time University archivists with the assistance of C.B. Schoeggl, former Secretary of the
Company, screened out numerous financial records before the remaining records were moved to Seattle. At about the same time Western Washington
University, Center for Pacific Northwest Studies, acquired from PSP&L records of predecessor companies involved primarily in interurban and street railways. A few of these firms also handled light and power operations.
An inventory to these PSP&L records at WWU is available in the UW Manuscripts
Section.
Notes on Arrangement
The main body of the accession are the records of Puget Sound Power & Light from 1920-1953. Records of Puget Sound Traction, Light & Power, 1912-
1920, have been separated and treated as a subgroup and Seattle Electric
Company has been sub grouped as a predeces:sor company. Because the records of these three companies were originally interfiled, they are organized similarly. For instance, in each of the three there is a series, GENERAL
CORRESPONDENCE, re plant (or operations), which includes correspondence with suppliers, associations, unions·, insurers and others,. about operations~
INTEROFFICE CORRESPONDENCE for PSP&L AND PSTLP included correspondence with , Dn e. s erie.s)' II•/ T& R.

Central, Northern, Northeastern, Eastern, Southern and Southwestern, respectively, although the offices remained in the same cities, These s.ame divisions are represented in REPORTS. 5
Most original foldering and folder headings have been retained.
Likewise, subject series used by PSP&L have been retained; most include
correspondence, In addition, one large SUBJECT SERIES, Condemnation Cases
(boxes 51-83), has been expanded to include not only individual condemnation
cases brought against Puget by th.e PUD's but related series as well. The
FPC hearings of 1940 investigated not only PSP&L's political expenditures
but also its expenses in contesting the Whatcom County PUD condemnation
suit, These hearings, therefore, were included in the SUBJECT SERIES
Condemnation Cases, Also included are records relating to the proceedings
of the Securities & Exchange Connnission in 1941-43 in regard to Puget's
recapitalization plans. Although thes.e proceedings were not strictly
related to the local condemnation cases, they were grouped together because
both dealt with divestitute of PSP&L operating companies and assets. Another
large SUBJECT SERIES, Sale of Seattle Metropolitan Area, (boxes 91-100)
concerns the negotiations between Puget and City Light which culminated in
the sale of Puget's Seattle properties to City Light in 1951.
The Subgroups - PREDECESSOR COMPANIES include records of four of the
five companies which merged July 8, 1912 to form PSTLP: Seattle Electric,
Seattle-Tacoma Power, Pacific Coast Power, and Puget Sound Power.
Included also is a Stone & Webster subgroup, Columbia Improvement Company.
The engineering section of Stone & Webster worked through Columbia Improvement
Company on hydro construction in the Puyallup and Tacoma area. ~ed ~Also ivi eluded ~"1.Werry,Mj as"<@:~~ are-- r-e.serds of smaller predecessors of
these companies and records of companies acquired after 1912; these records have not yet been processed. They can be located by item number on the original PSP&L inventory. 6
See also Puget Sound Power & Light Company Acc. No. 2068, files of
Frank McLaughlin, for additional material concerning the City Light rivalry and sale, proposed sale of PSP&L properties to the PUD's ca. 1953, and proposed merger with Washington Water Power Company.
Discarded Records
As mentioned previously many financial records were not acquired along with the rest of the records in 1974 .. During processing in 1981 and 1982 certain parts of the accession were selectively sampled. The Securities
Company subgroup was reduced by approximately two-thirds. Only a sample of correspondence with stockholders was retained. Invoices of stock transactions and similar records were also discarded. For PSP&L and major predecessor companies correspondence about operations, mainly with suppliers, was sampled. The weeded correspondence was discarded and a very small volurae reclaimed by the company.
Also during processing other records were appraised for their research value. Many reports, appraisals, and case files were found to be duplicates and were set aside for discard. Many legal documents, including land and building leases, clippings, and pole permit maps were also set aside.
Company officials reviewed these records and reclaimed 38 cartons, mainly abstracts and other land records. They authorized the destruction of the remaining records proposed for destruction. A brief list of these is available. Altogether the Manuscripts Section retained only about half of the volume transferred in 1974. 7 f I I'~-·
