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.

A word to the wise might save an i un-
pleasant conflict with the law.

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.
