taxation enough money to do the work.
which will cost about $100,000.
An effort will be made when the
Port of Bayocean is organized, to co
operate with the Port of Tillamook In
having the Sturgeon Channel opened.
That is regarded by the engineer as
the best channel that could be obtained,
but as the Government put in jetty
work and cut off that channel some
years ago, conditions have changed
now that the- south side of the bay
needs a channel. Should the Sturgeon
Channel be decided upon eventually,
that would relieve the Port of Tilla
mook of keeping open a channel In the
bay, as that Is in the Port of Bayocean
