TILLAMOOK, ORE |ON, Take Notice Mr. Hunter : Which do you prefer, a Cartridge loaded ten years ago at the factory, full of caked powder— they are kickers, but not killers—or our hand loaded cartridges, which are beyond competition, and are loaded with nothing but the Best, Cleau Shooting Powder, Chilled Shot in Good Shells ? V e have positive proof that our factory loaded to order cartridges were loaded since the order was sent in this fall, and not old stock. Our Motto : Satisfaction guaranteed or money refunded. RALPH TILLAMOOK GOES DRY A Strong Public Sentiment Against Saloons and their Gambling Joints. WAS A VOTE OF CENSURE Upon County and City Officials R Who have Failed to do their Duty and Enforce the Law- Republican Land Slide. MjThe election on Tuesday in Tillamook county was of unusual interest to most people, not so much an account of the prest dential election, but on account of the local option question that was to be decided at the polls whether the people wanted a “dry” or “wet’’countv. or, in other words, whether the people wanted to get rid of the saloons and the gamb ling joints some of the saloon keepers run in connection with their places of business It was a clean cut question to be voted upon, and upon a law that was enacted by the people, and strictly non-partisan in character. Those who wanted to see the law adopted and pro. perly enforced carried on a quiet and active campaign and won the election be cause they had facts and incidents to prove that some of the saloons in Tilla mook City were turned into gambling joints, aud it was against the best inter ests of the people to allow then to run “wide open.’’ The saloon keepers did not make an aggressive fight, but a few days before election they began treating tbe boys. Some of those who discussed the question on the street grew quite warm, but no bad feeling resulted from this. Those who have watched the trend of public opinion in Tillamook county knew full well that prohibition would carry with a good majority, for the sen timent has been so pronounced against gambling and the disgraceful affairs that have taken place in the gambling joints of Tillamook City that even some of the saloon keepers saw thev were whipped fro m thestart. It was thegeneral opinion that conditions needed purifying and the voters went about it in good shape, and with the aid of men who frequent the saloons and who saw the need of closing up the saloons and clearing out the gamblers. To that class belongs the I credit of so large a majority for prohi- i bition. There is another thing connected with the vote, for it is a vote of censure i ■Upon the countv and city officials who have allowed the laws to be openly vio lated and who have ddne nothing to en force the saloon and gambling laws, for it shows most plainly that public senti- men. is opposed to men who will not do I Mbheir duty, for which they are receiving ACKLEY. good big salaries. No one could be made believe six. months ago that Tillamook County would vote “dry,’’ but it has come about, and it is going to be a num. ber of years before the saloons are voted back now that the people have shown their contempt for the whiskey ring. Not onlv was it a surprise to some people that Tillamook Countv went “dry,” but when Tillamook precinct, previously controlled in county and city elections by saloon keepers and gamblers,went “dry’’ also, it was freely admitted there must be something decidedly rotten going on in that precinct when the saloon people lost their grip on the saloon vote It was that rottenness which, largely,made the voters cast their ballots against the saloons. Only three precincts, and but small ones, voted against prohibition— Foley, with a vote of 10 for, 11 against _• Barnegat, 1 for, 5 against ; Dolph, 4 for, 10 against—making a majority of only 11 votes for the three precincts. At the election in Jane, only two precincts, Tillamook and Dolph, voted against the law. At that election there were 566 votes cast for the law and 330 against. Owing to the election boards in Dolph, Little Nestucca, Fairview, Hoquarton, Garibaldi, Netarts, Nehalem, Carnahan and Barnegat precincts placing the offi cial returns in the ballot boxes with the ballots, and locking and sealing them up, the judges will have to come to Tilla- mook and rectify the mistake, for Clerk Lamb has no authority to break the seal and unlock the boxes, consequently it will be some time next week before the official count will be made. Crouse & Brandegee Clothing nt * Todd’s. Don’t continue to pump water out of a deep well by hand for a lot of farm stock, thinking to save the price of a windmill, remarks the Wisconsin Agriculturalist, and then goes on to say we know of well-to-do farmers who have done this for twenty-five years rather than spend the money necessasy to provide wind power. One could always see them at the pump, old and bent from hard work. Strange how some people make slaves of themselves for money ; how they hide themselves behind a dollar and can’t see out and beyond it to the many advant ages that accrue to the thinking man. Time lost pumping water for a lot ofcat tle will soon pay for a mill, to sav noth ing of the benefit cattle derive from always having a tank of water where they may help themselves at will. It is almost painful to see a well-to-do farmer come from the field at noon, hurriedly swallow his dinner and then pump water until time to go to the field again. Windmills are cheap and durable and life is short. Commissioners’ Court. NOVEMBER io, 1904 Jim Thompson...................... Everett Bales and team. ... G. M. Cobb ami team..........
