By BOARD OF TRADE
Good Sized Crowd in Court
House Monday Evening
COMMITTEE APPOINTED BY CHAIK
Em) body Uosolmous on (be Needs el
tbt Tswa
An enthusiastic meeting was held
last Monday night at the court
bouse, relative to the new hotel
prrject for our city.
The same was called by the
Hillaloro Board of Trade in order
to publicly discuss with tbe pro
moters their plans and intentions,
and to secure public opinion as to
the necessity of the hotel.
As president of the board, Dr. J.
P, Tamiesie opened the dbctiHsion
with a few short introductory re
marks, giving particular emphasis
to the fact that the neceseity for a
good hotel io ilillehoro had long
been realized and commented upon
by residents of tbe community, and
particularly by the travelling pub
lie. That the lack of same was a
great drawback to the inlereats of
our city, and that be thoroughly
endorsed the construction of a first
else hotel.
Following Dr. Tamiesie, Mr. L.
S. Laugblin spoke in bahslf of the
promoters, detailing benHUts to be
denied locally by tbe construction
of such a building as proposed. He
dwelt particularly lit on the adver
tising to be obtained by the city, as
a renult of having a hotel such as
proposed. An outline of the pub
licity movement for this section.
such as undertaken by Mr. R. L
Cate, the Portland real e.ilate man,
was pext given, and the necceeity
shown for having satisfactory quar
ters in which to house and board
tbe hundreds of prospective pur
cheers rf local properties which
will be drawn to thin locality.
Mucb further conducive argu
ment in favor of the project was
submitted, followed by a general
description of the hotel buildirg
and manner of financing the propo
sition. It was staled that tbe
slock be secured by popular sub
scription; that the promoters would
float what they could in Portland,
tbe major portion to be subscribed
locally.
Tbe promoters further Sa-reed as
a guarantee of good faith, to bond
themselves Io an amount equivalent
to the oost of tbe hotel, that an an
nual dividend of at least (1 er cent
would be paid on all stock sub
scribed. This is conclusive evi
dence of the faith put in the propo
sition by the promoters, who know
that the stock will pay much better
than fi per cent interest. Besides,
the hotel is not the final objective
point, as tbis ib desired principally
n order to assist in the successful
manipulation of real estate, both
city proerliea and farm lands.
Tbe money expended in construc
tion will be circulated, as much as
poesible, amoug local firms, that as
little cash as possible be taken out
of the community.
Mayor John Dennis followed Mr.
Laughlin with a few sh irt remarks
relative to the well known necessi
ty of the new hotel.
Five minute talks in favor of the
proposition were then given by
County Clark God man. Attorney
Thus. a. Tongue, J. A. Imbrm,
Rev. Howard Oilpatrick and F. M.
Heidel. '
Mr. R. L Cate next gave a short
outline of cost, plans and specifi
cations. Mayor John Dennis then made a
motion that a committee of six le
appointed by the president of the
Board of Trade to confer with the
promoters and assist iu tbe rale of
stock. Motion was seconded by
Mr. Heidel and carried by unani
mous vote.
The entire meeting was enthusi
astic snd showed plainly that the
views of the people are in full ac
cord with the new hotel project.
Our cilueos should be unani
mous in their efforts to assist this
enterprise, and to come forward
now for we not only secure the
hotel, but at the same time, expert
service in the development ot the
community which means dollars to
all merchants or property holders

Thinks Commissioner IJu

BE WOULD HAVE ROCK ROADS
Wants County to Isaac Beads: Long
Tern Ps meat
II. Taylor Hill, formerly of Moun
taindale, now residing in Portland,
and still holding interests in Wash
ington County, writes the Argus a
letter, touching upon the road
queetion. Mr. Hill thinks tbe
county should bond and let road
construction by contract. To do
this it would be necessary, of course,
te change the constitution, which
permits counties at tbis time to go
in debt not to exceed $5,000. Mr.
Hill's letter follows:
"Editor Argus: I note ia the Arena
of the 7th inat. that Commissioner Bu
chanan (avors bonding the county lor
the purpoac of building one hundred
milea of rock road. 1 heartily agree
with him, only bedoea not go tar enough.
He shoaiii have added, "and let the
work be by contract to the loweat bid
der." Tbe way the roada have been
wotked up to tbia time puts one in mind
of tbe improvident farmer who builds a
bruh fence because he thinka he ha
neither time nor meant to do otherwise,
but, when he is done, he find he has no
fence only a makeshift. Economy
should have told him to borrow money
and 'do it right at first. By bonding tbe
county as the honorable commisaioner
suggests, nj thf n let the work by con
tract to the lowest bidder tbe county
would get value received. With the
present method they do not. Then tax
the people ii. pay tbe intercut and let
those who come after us, have Ihe use of
the good ra.-l and pay oft the principal.
Alter tbe main lines are made the later
al will quickly follow. Washington it
claised with tbe oldest and richest
couutiea in tbe state, and also has tbe
worst roads. One need not be told tbe
line between Multnomah aud Vah me
lon. He find a fine rock road until he
reaches the line, and then he jump off
in mud up to tbe bub, or 00 to one of
those detestable croaa-lays. Why not
get out of tbe brush fence way of doing
DusnieM. wny aiga a coupon lor rock
mad unless you kuow that in pending
the money the taxpayers wilt tie pro

experience baa shown, is to let the work
by contract.
