HON. BINGER HERMANN
VISITS TILLAMOOK.
A Large Crowd Greets Him
and to Hear What he has
to Say about Improving
the Tillamook Bar.
Representative Binger Hermann came
in on Sunday to look over the situation
in regard to the proposed improvement
of Tillamook bar and other government
work in this county. He was met at the
Trask house the night previous by Presi­
dent A. J. Colin and Messrs T. B. Hand­
lev and F. R. Beals, who escorted him
to the city the next dav. On Monday he
was taken down the bay in the Marta,
accompanied by Messrs. B. L. Eddy, T.
B. Handley, H. T. Botts, Geo. B. Lamb,
P. McIntosh, F. S. Whitehouse, Fred C.
Baker, J. F. Allen and Engineer Tower,
who took the government charts with
him and explained to Mr. Hermann the
whole situation, after which he went to
Nehalem, returning to Tillamook City
on Tuesday, where he was tendered a
public reception, arranged by the Port of
Tillamook Commission.
What Mr. Hermann Said.
A large crowd filled the opera house
to hear what Mr. Hermann had to say
about the improvement of Tillamook
bar, for that is the burning question in
this city at the present time.
Mr. A. J. Cohn presided, and a few
remarks were made by Messrs. T. B.
Handley, Claude Thayer and B. L.
Eddy, when the latter gentleman intro­
duced the new congressman.
Congressman Hermann opened his ad-
dress by saying it was a great privilege
to him to speak to such a progressive
class of people as he found in Tillamook,
and he appreciated the confidence they
had reposed in him by the demonstration
that evening. This showed him that he
still retained the confidence of the people
in this county that he had when lie repre­
sented them in congress before, and the
kindly voice by the sounding sea in Tilla
mook county and the loyal support he
had received was certainly very pleasing
to him. He then told the audience of his
former visit to Tillamook and told what
he had done to secure appropriations.
He was greatly surprised to see how the
county had developed and what a bright
future was before it. The purpose of bis
visit was to gain as much information
as possible about harbor improvements
and the proposed improvement of Tilla­
mook bpr, and he asked for the hearty
co-operation of the people, so that he
would be well supplied with data. “I
will do all I possibly can to secure a:i ap­
propriation for Tillamook bar; moie
than that I cannot do. I will be loyal
to the interests of Tillamook,’’ brought
forth applause as Mr. Hermann uttered
these words. He then explained how dif­
ficult it was for the two Oregon congress­
men, in a body of 386 members, to con­
vince them of the necessity of appropri­
ating large sums of money for harbor
improvements, especially at a place so
little known and with co small amount
of commerce ns Tillamook had. The con­
gressmen from the Eastern states hesi­
tated in making such appropriations, but
for the Columbia river it was quite dif
ferent. However, he would have the as­
sistance of his colleague and the two sen­
ators in trying to get an appropriation
for Tillamook bar. He was satisfied tha t
the bar ought to be improved so as to
enable those who owned the great forests
of timber an opportunity to manufacture
it, and as this to a large extent had fallen
into the hands of Eastern capitalists, it
would give remunerative employment to
thousands of men and would bring about
and era of prosperity in Tillamook that
no other county in Oregon ever enjoyed.
The resources in Tillamook county were
simply marvelous. But it was of no ad­
vantage as long as there were difficulties
at the bar, which did not allow the re­
sources to be developed as they should
be. Water wavs were thechea|xst roads
and the poor man’s highway, so he
wanted to see vessels drawing 16 feet
and over come and go to Tillamook.
Then the future of the county will be es-
tablishefl. Water ways belonged to all
the people, so the national government
should improve them. Mr Hermann .
took up the question, so often advanced
by the engineers, that the commerce of a
port did not justify the expenditure. To
him such a theory was abstired. “ What
would the commerce of Tillamook bay
lx if the bar was improved ?” was one
of Mr. Hermann’s questions. Judging
by the great timber resources and the
dairying and fishing industries, the com­
merce of Tillamook would immediately
grow to large proportions directly the
bar was improved, but it could not do
so until it was. In his mind that was
the way to unlock the situation and
overcome the objections of the engineers
should it lx raised again in the case of
Tillamook. What they must try and
convince the river and harbor committee

Death of Captain George Hunt.
The citizens of Tillamook were greatly I
surprised and grieved to hear the sad :
sad news on Friday evening that Capt. ,
Geo. Hunt was dead, and it becomes our j
painful duty to record his death. He had I
been sick but a few days with pneumonia
and but few person knew of his sickness,
so his death came as a great surprise to
them, for Captain Hunt was one of the
most highly respected citizens in the
county with a large number of friends to
mourn his death.
Captain George Hunt was born in Ire­
land in 1846. He spent almost hisentire
youth in Batavia, N.Y., when he moved
westward to Iowa and finally to Ore­
gon. He had been connected with the
government lighthouse service for 18
years, during eleven of which he was the
keeper of Cape Meares lighthouse, where
he died on Friday evening after a brief
sickness. Four months ago he was mar­
ried to Mrs. Agusta Boyington, and the
short union was a happy one until death
severed the bond that ties, leaving th*
widow to mourn her bereavement at a
time when happiness were their lot and
the future looked bright. Mrs. Buying,

com munity.
The re nains were brought to this city
on Saturday and taken to George Gray­
son's residence, and on Sunday afternoon
they were taken to the ME. church, fol­
lowed bv delegations from the Masonic
and Fraternal Union lodges, where the
Rev. G. Svkes preached the funeral ser­
mon, the church being crowded with sv m-
pathiwing friends. The burial was in the
Oddfellows' cemetery.
