TILLAMOOK CITY
RAILROAD MAGNATE TELLS THE
PEOPLE JUST WHAT HE WANTS
AND THEY RESPOND IN SAME
UNDERSTANDABLE FASHION.
E. E. Lytle, the responsible head of
the railroad project from Hillsboro to
Astoria, and Tillamook City, paid the
latter city a Tisit last week and told
them in plain and simple language just
what he wanted and the good and anx
ious people down there responded un
derstandingly In similar terms, the text
of the important transaction being set
forth as follows, in the Tillamook Head
light of last week:
"Mr. E. E. Lytle, president of the Pa
cific Railway A Navigation Company,
who is building the railroad from Hills
boro, came in on Wednesday to see
how the surveying parties were getting
along and to go over a part of the
route, and also to make a proposition
to the people of Tillamook county A
meeting for that purpose was held at
tie rooms of the Tillamook Develop
ment League, a good number of busi
ness men being present Mr. Lytle
staled his proposition, which was to
the effect that if the people would guar
antee him free right of way, 100 feet
wide, between Tillamook City, going
north to Buxton, in Washington county,
with free terminal grounds at Tilla
mook City and Bay City, he would
commence the construction of the road
at Tillamook City next year and would
build 15 miles in 1907 and by December
31, 1908, he would have the entire road
constructed and in operation.
"The sense of the meeting was decid
edly in favor of Mr. Lytle's road on ac-

count of the shorter distance to Port
land and although those present prom
ised to procure the rights of way, it
was not thought advisable for a lim
ited number to guarantee the rights of
way that evening, so it was decided to
send out numerous committees on Fri
day for the purpose of getting every
body interested with a promise that
they would do their part, for if Mr.
Lytle does not get free right of way
he may not build into this county foe
some time Another meeting is called
for Friday evering, and it depends upon
what amount of success the commit
tees meet with whether Mr. Lytle will
be guaranteed a free right of way, for
that is something which most every
railroad will demand -and which ev
erybody ought to help in some way or
other to secure. It was stated at the
meeting that Mr. W. S. Cone had prom
ised terminal grounds at Bay City. Fol
lowing is the agreement which was
drawn up and which the committees are
circulating today:
"Tillamook, Ore., Sept. 14. 1906.
"Mr. E. E. Lytle.
"Dear Sir In order to secure the im
mediate construction of a railroad from
Hillsboro in Washington county, Ore
gon, via Buxton, Barberry, Nehalem, Bay
City and Tillamook City, we hereby
assure you of our warmest support and
assistance, and in consideration that
you will construct or cause to be con
structed such a railroad, with all reason
able diligence, and will construct fifteen
miles of grade from Tillamook City
north on or before December 31, 1907,
and if possible for- yon to get rails and
fastenings into Tillamook at a reason
able cost, will also lay the track within
said time, and will complete the road
ready for operation on or before Decern
ber 31, 1908, we agree that we will fur
nish vou with free right of way for
s4id road 100 feet wide, and terminal
facilities at Bay City and Tillamook
City The riht of way to he secured
from Buxton to Tillamook City. We
are to proceed with all reasonable dis
patch to secure said right of way If
condemnation proceedings become nec
essary for you or your company or as
signee, are to bring or carry on said
proceedings, we are to be at the expense
and to employ our own lawyers. If Mr.
Lytle is delayed by strikes or unavoid
able causes a short time will be no
breach of this understanding.

than 3,500 feet in length by 350 feet
in width, both at Bay City and Tilla

Mr. Bradley was a trusted and valued
employe of Tull & Gibbs, the big
house furnishers, and was at the Lead
of their tapestry department, and had
been with them since they founded
their present establishment, and was
with Forbes & Breeden before that.
He was a young man of fine attain

host of warm friends in the metropolis,
who will sincerely regret his mysterious
and untimely death. Every precaution
will be taken for securing the remains
when the cold Columbia shall yield
them once again to the sight of pitty

the fact that there is no plausible
ground for accounting for the tragedy.
