“ Mayor Talmage has appointed three

these appointees have to be approved bv
the Commission, their names have not
been made public. These appointments
caused some discussion, as many people
thought that the commission was dead
or quashed. This commission consists
of nine members, who, in the words of
an old settle, ‘ Do nothing but give a
banquet once in awhile; present the in

has been a full attendance at any of the

enough.' However, the commission is
inexistence and is composed of good,

may do good work for the Port of

*#*
I I mission, Tillamook, Oregon.
Sir:—Your letter of January 22, 1903,
regarding necessity for work in Hoquar-
ton Slough and Tillamook Bay, is re
ceived.
I am sorry to hear that the channels
there are gi ring difficulty as our reports
have not shown that there was much,
if any, trouble in the steamers getting in
and out.
It is my intention to take up this work
at the earliest opportunity and I hope
soon to have a man available to send
there to take charge of it.
The office has been crowded with work
since the river and harbor bill and 1 was
under the impression from the reports
I that Tillamook was getting along finelv
* with the channel as already dredged
under Captain Harts.
I will use every endeavor to push the
work and trust that you will be a little
patient in the case if I cannot get around
, quite as fast as you would like.
Very respectfully.

So as to make it discretionary with
county courts as to appointing “orna
mental” roadmasters, Representative B.
L. Eddy, has introduced a bill to amend
secsion 4853 of the code. The only change
is that Cotnty Commissioners or the
County Court are authorized, nt their
discretion, at the first regular session
after the approval of this act, to appoint
one or more competent persons to take
charge of the roadwork, whose term of
office shall expire at the first regular ses
sion of the County Court in 1904, at
which time the County Clerk may make
an appointment for one year.
