The Tillamook Headlight just at hand, comments as follows on the efforts made there in behalf of the Oregon Coast Railway Company, now afoot in this city and county: "Manager Ruffum of the Bankers Sav ings & Loan Society of Astoria was in the city last week in the interest of the Oregon Coast Railway Company, and a number of business men met Friday evening in II. T. Botts' office to hear Mr. Buffum's plans, which amounted to this; A company had been formed at Astoria to run a sur vey and procure rights of way for an electric line in Clatsop county, the expenses of this work being paid by those who subscribed for stock, and as soon as the road was taken over or financed this money would be re turned with interest. And so as to continue the survey to Tillamook City and to procure rights of way Mr. Buff urn was wanting the people of this county to raise $10,000. Most of the business men present expressed themselves by saying that they would like to see an electric line between this city and Astoria, but were some what positive in their remarks that that amount of money could not be raised, and as to securing options for rights of way for two years that was considered impossible, Mr. Bufftim met with little or no encouragement; in fact, the meeting plainly proved that the people of this county are not in the mood to take hold of any new railroad proposition of a visionary character, and Mr. Buffum found him self in a little hornet's nest when he undertook to carry it into effect. After talking over the matter the next day and Sunday with others.
