PASSING OUR DEBTS Oil
IS UNFAIR POLICY
The following communication was
handed into this office last evening by
a well known citizen, and speaks
plainly for itself ,and is therefore
published without comment:
"Editor Astorian: J, take the As
torian, and have'read in it about the
seawall to be'made. I say if we are
going to have a seawall let the men
who own the water lots build it and
pay for it. Seems to me there is a
nigger on the fence somewhere, and
these people who own lots are put
ting up a job on the men who have
invested their hard earnings in hill
homes. Does this crowd think we on
the hill are suckers enough to vote a
tax on ourselves for the next 40 or
50 years, to build and keep in repair
an old wooden wall along the mud
fiats. I heard a man who works for
the city say, 'Let the childreffW for
it!' I'll bet that man didn't have to
pay any of his father's debts, any
how I know I didn't have to pay any
of my father's bills, and I am sure I
am not going to leave any debts be
hind for my children or anybody etses i
children to settle, if I can help it. 1
just can't understand how any man
owning a home on the hillside could
be sucker enough, or fool enough to
vote for a bill that would tax himself
for eternity for somethingHhat would
not benefit him. Doe's this water
land crowd think we have honey to
feed the birds? If they have money
to bum let them build their own sea
walls and not ask us for help.

FIRST COdlPiY IS III
ENGAMPfilENT TODAY
SHAM BATTLE IS SCHEDULED
AT 2 O'CLOCK THIS AFTER
NOON AT YOUNG'S RIVER
The First Company, Coast Artil
lery is in camp today at a point near
the Young's River bridge. The boys
marched out last evening, a consid
erable number of them going in a
body at 4 o'clock, and the others
leaving for the camp as soon as their
workaday duties permitted them to
go. The encampment will be con
ducted on strictly military lines, and
the time . will not be : passed in fun
only. There will be drilling, and this
afternoon a sham battle is scheduled
to take place at 2 o'clock. For the
purpose of seeing that the soldier
boys don't go hungry, a cook has
been employed and he will see that
there are beans for breakfast, din
ner and supper and for any and all
luncheons; Probably there will be
something besides beans, too, but it
would hartlly be a regular encamp
ment if the beans were not the, main
dish.
The members of the company have
looked forward with considerable in
terest to this encampment and if it
passes off pleasantly and in the profit
able manner that is hoped for, it is
planned to have others of a similar
nature at frequent periods.
Probably there will be a goodly
number of visitors at the encampment
today, especially if the day is pleas
ant. There will be no difficulty in
finding the camp by simply taking the
road to the bridge.
