i THE TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, JUNE 13 Portland Wholesale Fleecers. The Portland commission merchants want as much for handling Tillamook cheese as the manufacturer charges for making it. That is not equitable consid ering that the manufacturer has to build a factory and put in a plant, which, after piving expenses, leaves but a small mar gin oi profit, while the commission mer chant is to very little expense. Here is I h «-difference. Eastern commission men handle cheese for a quarter to one-third of a cent a pound, but the Portland com mission men flaunt a letter in the face of the cheese manufacturers of Tillamook and demand Ute. per pound for handling it. We stop to enquire whether the Port land commission men are atiy better than the Eastern commission men ? Yes, de cidedly, in exactiug that much more money from the dairymen, for it is they who will have to pay the fiddler, The reason, perhaps, why the Portland com- mission men are wanting more money for handling cheese from this county is because they admit they are making 2c. per pound upon cheese from Utah and the East. If Portland wholesale merch ants want to import cheese into the state that is their privilege, but it shows that there is very little genuineness in the ofc repeated agitation to patronise Oregon industries. Anyway, Tillamook cheese manufacturers are not depending upon Portland commission men to handle their I products, for they have been shipping part of their cheese to other states, and, consequently, the merchants who handle cheese in this city have recriprocated by sending orders for goods, which should have gone to Portland. The probabili ties are that Portland commission men will handle less of Tillamook cheese in the future unless they come down off their high horse and are willing to do business within reason and equitably. The raise in the price for handling Till amook cheese by Portland commission men continues to stick in the gizzards of a number of dairymen, and it is right it should and we hope it will stick there until the wrong is redressed. We have been approach by several dairymen who feel a little hot in the collar, and their idea is for the business men of Tillamook to boycott the Portland houses, and in this way the dairymen would patronize the local merchants who did this. That is one scheme which appears to be freely talked of amongst the dairymen. This would only be a just retaliation, but we will candidly admit to those who want the H eadlight ' s support in this matter that it is a little premature to take such a course, although if they decide to do so they can rely upon the H eadlight to champion their cause without fear or favor. We do not believe in a spirit of boycott, foronce that is started in a com munity it is hard to tell where it is going to let up. Astoria has undergone the boycott experiment, and probably she wished she hadn't now. It seems to us that we have plenty of long-headed peo. pie in the chesse business who are able to find as good a market as Portland for their cheese, and we may add they are wide-a wake at the present time. As soon as San Francisco commission men know where the shoe pinches they will take ad vantage of it. As Mr. P. McIntosh, who is the largest manufacturer of cheese in Tillamook, and also in the State of Ore gon, is not troubling himself about the increase in charge for handling cheese, it don't appear that the Portland commis sion men have the Tillamook dairymen r cross a barrel yet. Mr. McIntosh will not ship cheese to Portland on commis- s on again. One thing the local merch ants could do when ordering goods of Portland ’commission men, and that is to point out to them the propriety of withdrawing their letter without further delay, for it may lead to complications. Tillamook people are not antagonistic to Portland in the least, but if they cannot get a sqnare deal there it will not be sur- piising if they become a little pugnatious with that city. One cheese manufacturer has suggested that all the cheese factories combine and locate a man in Portlard for the purpose of disposing of Tillamook cheese in that city. Not a bad idea, but we hardly be lieve that it will lie carried out, for those who have the disposal a large propor tion of the cheese manufactured in this county have confidence enough in them selves to get it on the market without having to pay lV4c. for handling. It should not surprise the dairymen of this county if the price prevailing so long for cheese took a fall several notches in the future, for considerable Eastern and Utah cheese is being shipped into the state. One of our best known manufac turers predicted this several months ago. It’s unlawful to send butter or cheese to market without first labeling it as Oregon manufactured. Ifthose who were under contract to deliver unlabled cheese to Portland wholesale merchants con tinue to do sothev run considerable risk.

S ynopsis : The title “Caractacus" is suggestive in itself and brings us back to the early centuries when Britain had still remained in its rude barbaric but inde|iendent state; when the Romans urged on by the traditions left them by their god Termi. nus, that the boundaries of their empire would never recede, having overrun all Gaul by their victories cast their eyes upon the neighboring Island of Britain. The Emperor Claudius finding matters sufficiently prepared for his reception, made a journey into Britain and received the submission ot many of the tribes. Caractacus, as a chieftain of Britain, still maintained an obstinate resistance, when his brother chieftains had sacri ficed their liberty, but he was at length defeated in a great battle, was taken captive to Rome, where his magnanimous behavior procured him better treatment than those conquerors usually bestowed on their prisoners. The bold defiance of Caractacus to the demands of rhe Em- peror instead of incurring the ex|iected wrath of royalty, wins the admiration and sympathy of Claudius, who not only pardons his brave captive, but loads him with presents and sets him and his followers free to return to their native land.
