It means an export harbor and the nearest outlet to the middle Willamette Valley. It means a harbor of refuge for coast ing vessels. Just to start wUh It means a payroll of two hundred thous and dollars for four years 4uring the construction of the jetties. It means that practically all of this eight hun dred thousand dollars will go to the wage earners and to the farmers for his produce. It means that the farm ers and working men" can pay their taxes. It means that Lincoln County will have no delinquent tax rolls. It means the' development of every por tion of Lincoln Cuunty. It means 'that in a few years Lincoln Counvy will have good rock and plank roads lead ing from all portions of the county to trade centers. It means many cream- erles and cheese factories. It means the building of many large sawmills, Jogging roads, shipyards, and a hun- j dred other new Industries. It means Yaqulna Bay Harbor, the best natural ' narbor on the Oregon coast arter nav-, Ing been neglected for twenty five, years by the G-vernment will be Im- nrnvad nnd frelulit rates will be euua- 'lized and a greut and growing com- merce will have an outlet to the high I seas. It means a greater Lincoln . County and a greater Oregon. I means that our boys and girls It will have employment at home. if the election curries on the first 'day of May Newport District accord i Ing to the assessment rolls of the year 1916, will havo within It's bomi' darics more than four million dollars assessable property, and Toledo Port Listrlct will have the same amount. Two years hence the assessment rolls will be Increased by two million dollars by reusoti of the fact that the Indian lands in the Siletz Reservation will be taxed. !' slm pie patents Is- suing to them In 1919. This property is ab.mt equally uvm,u port ami Toledo I'ort Districts. There- :vtv In liil taeli l'ort District win have an assessed valuation' of Ave mil lien dollars, not including the in crease of property by reason of the building of logging railroads and saw mills that will be Lus'.t during the next two years, of the probable value of two million dollars as now con ten. plated by timber owners if tho hur bor is improved. Tn niiv our ttnrtion four hundred . .1 thousauU. the aiiiouni necessary 10 deepen the bar to a depth of twenty feet at lower low water according to tho plans iiid estimates of the Govern ment engineers, Toledo and Newport Porta paving one hundred thousand dollars a year for four years and the Government paying one hundred thous and dollars a year for four years. If the bonds run for twenty flv years at 5 per cent on two hundred thousand dollars Newport's portion, it will require an annual special tax levy of two mills on the dollar on five million dollars -assessed valuation to pay the annual Interest on the bonds, amounting to the sum of ten thous and dollars. This would mean that If a person paid taxes on one thousand dollars worth of properi, his special tax for harbor Improvement would amount to two dollars per year. To redeem these bonds at the end of the twenty five years period, a additional levy of one mill could be mnde, commencing at the end of tht first five years Jo crento a sinking fund. If this additional one mill levy is made, then after the first five years the person paying on one thousand dollars worth of property would pay a special tax of three doltnrs for harbor improvements, and at the end of the twenty five year period there would be no Indebtedness on account of the Improvement of Yaqulna Bay Harbor. This applies to Toledo Port District also. The increase of the assessed val uation of the property in Lincoln County by reason of the building of railroads, sawmills, end the many other new Industries that will follow the Improvement of the harbor will be at a low estimate twenty Ave mil lion dollars.. It the SlleU Bay Is ever Improved It must be done by co-operation. IV operation of the wholo people and tlifc ! government, The people In thai portion of the county havo not suf ficient assessable property to pny foi the deepening of their harbor, alone. but by co-openitlng with the people of Newport Ports and voting licmslv Into this Port, nnd by taxing all tne property with tho co-operation of the Government, they will bp nblo to get Ithnt hi! '""I IM"! on, I Tillamook Count? has improved two harbors in their county which are about twenty miles apart. They first improved the largest bay, Tillamook and later on Improved the Nehalem Bay. They now have two harbors in their county and ha've prospered be yond all other coast counties. They have twenty Ave or more cheese fac tories, many creameries, and other in dustries, a number of big sawmills on each bay, good rock and plank roads, leading to every section of the county. We have practically the same climate. better soil, more 'timber lands, as many rich valleys, and tidelands as they have. On the South of us Sius law, Umpqua, Coos and Bandon Bays have all been improved by the Govern ment with the co-operation of the peo ple. They are all prosperous communi ties, have large payrolls, and are buiu. ing hundreds of miles of gooa roadn. We can do as our sister counties have done. It will not be an experiment with us. We follow the beaten paths. Do you want to keep your boys and girls at home? . Or would you rather they go out among strangers to seek employment? F'?y per cent of the young men of Lincoln Count have fo leave home to obtain employment. Many young men. with families are compelled to go out side to obtain em ployment, leaving their families at home. Many of our girls have to leave their homes to obtain employment else where, all because we are a sleepy, non-progressive people; and there is no payroll in Lincoln County, and be cause we have slept on our rights and not taken advantage of the wonderful opportunities, that a kind pr,vldence has given us, and because we have not tried to develop (he wonderful natural resources of our county; and because we have not all pulled together for a better and greater county If you want to keep your boys and girls at home underNuother's influence, who will watch over them and help make their surroundings pleasant, boost for all Improvements. Help make a payroll, so the boys and girls won t have to leave home. Boost for good roads so that those living in the country can get to town, and those living in town can get out Into the country. Thus creatine fraternity and sociability among all classes. ' Boost for harbor Improvements, good road9i good homeg a payrolli and prog. ' perity. New llnK9 move A the lg moving and Improving.

Young blood Is .looking to tll0 Thpv t conveniences; They want to get 'her They want to keep In the great mo-n.' procession. If they can't move and progress, keep up with the times, and have conveniences at home and in their home countlps, they will go out after them. The boy or girl who 'lives on the farm and rnn't pet to town in the winter time occnsslonally, when the long, dnll.-raliiy days are on, they fret and worry and soon become discontented, and then nwnv nt )( the world, and soon home ties are for gotten. To keep them, we must have pleas ant surroundings, good roads to get to town, good schools to give them an even chance with their city cousins. Wlien they can get Into an nuto or buggy and drive over a good road ten miles to town after supper, spend an hour or two In the city, and homo at bedtime they will have all the conven iences of city life, as well as the real comforts of farm life, be contented with mother under the home roof, then men are better, women are bettpr, boys and girls are better, family ties will not be so often broken, there will be less heartburning, more love, fratern ity, better social and moral conditions, better financed conditions, less pov erty, more linpplness, a stronger and better county, city, state and national Government.
