Let us hope, it Tillamook county is to
have a railroad, it will l>e constructed
before the Lewis & Clark Centennial in
1905, for it will onlv show a lack of en­
terprise if this county is left without rail­
road connections. We understand that
all projected railroads in Oregon are to
be finished by that time. Let 11s hope,that
of all the plans to build a road to Till«
mook the past 12 years, one of them
have been really projected.
The usual custom in this city of hav­
ing the Christmas tree entertainments on
Christmas eve was to heencroached upon
on account of the protracted meetings,
and the time set was five o’clock, a most
inconvenient hour for parents and the
general public. We think we express the
sentiment of the community when we
sav that the protracted meetings should
be put off one evening for the Christmas
tree entertainments, and we are glad
to hear that this will be done.
In round figures the financial condition
of Tillamook City at the present time is
about $400 in debt, divided about equal
between the general and road funds.
This will be increase«I by the end ot the
year probably by $150 when December’s
expenses are added. Considering there
were $400 out standing warrants when
the present council came into office, all
of which have been paid, the expenditure
has been kept about even with the re­
receipts. Owing to the purchase ot the
new fire hose and other appliances,
amounting to over $800. which was a
large item of expenditure, and placing
electric lights in the residence portion of
the city, making a good public improve­
ment and one which is appreciated and
the money well spent, were expenditures
which the previous city council had not
to contend with. When the annual re-
ports are made out it will he seen that,
considering everything, that the city is
in good shape financially, better than
most of the councilmen thought, and
they can congratulate themselves, with
the thanks of the public, that it is so.
blowing. People ought to feel thankful
that they liv^ in Tillamook, for, mark
the contrast, they are wearing about the
same clothing now as they did in the
summer and the dairy herds are pastur­
ing in the green meadows. It was heat
and drought which paralized the East
and Middle West last summer, when
Tillamook was enjoying a cool and de­
lightful atmosphere, copious and refresh­
ing shows of rain, and the green meadows
producing a luxuriant growth of grass
and clover and the whole county look­
ing Si perfect picture of freshness and
beauty. No wonder that people are de­
sirous of coming to Tillamook w hen they
see that the climatic conditions are so
different, and where they can enjoy life
the whole year without distressing heat
in summer and blizzards, snow storms
and cold in the winter. Tillamookers are
a happy, contented, prosperous and in­
dependent class of people, and there is
no reason to doubt but what the splen­
did climatic conditions are responsible
for this satisfactory state of affairs. If
the people in the East and Middle West,
instead of the blizzards, snow and cohl,
could onlv enjoy the mild weather which
we are enjoying they would think thev
had landed in paradise, sure, for Tilla­
mook is known as the land of paradise
in the Far West. Ami the farmers and
dairymen on the outside, or on the other
side of the Coast range, don’t know
what they are missing, and the money
they are loosing by not coming to Tilla­
mook and engaging in dairying.
The Tillamook Dairy Association, by
deciding to erect a new creamery, is tullv
alive to the changed conditions which
are every where desernable in the dairv

The
