L. Cate, who baa managed the big Hawthorne estate at Portland, and also in Washington County, for a Dumber of years, was in town the first of the week, interesting himself in the hotel preposition Cate brought with bim plans and specifications of a big prrsed brick hotel, containing 41 rooms, with all the modern equipments, like steam heat, electric lights, elevator, bath?, and a glance at the plans show tha design to ba equal to the arrange menta of any htel in the metropol itan citv it Portland. The esti- ma'ed cnet of the building is about .'5,(J(X), and Mr. Cate esy leis hereto eee that the town has the hotel if local capital will do its part. Already several well to-do-people in the city and surrounding vicinity havedecided to help in Ihe matter of taking atock, and their holdings will run up in o tbe thou sands. Hil'eboro hagron and it now needs a modern hostelry Mr Cate proposes that the tri-cl shall have capacity to take care of the business that must eventually come. The building is to be 72x112. and three stori-e in height. It is to be etam heated, have its own electrio light ar.d pumping plant; have a bar; bailirortrif; sample rooms; letturant, aud all the necessary accouiremeotH of a first class hotel. All the rooms are to have natural light through the medium of shafts, and it will have an elevator, and two big reception rooms tor political gatherings, as well.' as tbe usual parlors. The projectors as vet have selected no site, but they have options on two or three places, and have decided that it must be built in the busi ness centre of the town. Mr. Cate, in diecussiog the matter said: j "Your town is growing; you are build- j ing into the Tillamook country through the P. K. & N., and it ia only question of time until your population will be doable and three timet iti preteut census. I You need a hotel, and 1 am willing to do j my part. If local capital will take hold and I propoae that they will you will ( see Hillaboro rated as one of the towns with first-class accomodations. A good j hotel will help your town. You will eventually get a hospital, for yonr city will be the natural outlet of North Co lumbia and all of Tillamook counties All you need here ia a little confidence, and a little enterprise. I think I aee it here, anil all it wants is a little shaking up. I think you can promise Hillsboro that hotel within the next six or seven months. Will I succeed? Well, I think so. When I started in to ret a bonus of twenty -thousand for the Dornbecker factory lor Portland, people laughed. I got it, and the factory was built. Tnis hotel is a business proposition want no bonus, and there is the stoik to be taken. It will pay six per cent., and possibly more. What better do you waul?
