It is expected ¿that the census of the
county will show no increase in the pop
ulation of Tillamook, for it will be some
where in the neighborhood of 4,500 to
5,000 inhabitants, with plenty of room
for ten times that number.

Violators of the local option law in
Multnomah, Coos, Benton and Wasco
are gradually finding themselves in a
tight place, with fines and imprisonment
confronting them. No wonder that they
are quitting the illegal business.

For nearly three years Rollie has had

These are no idle figures, but cold facts
which cannot be denied. For the year
1904 Tillamook Countv manufactured
over three million pounds of butter and
cheese. There's nothing small about
Tillamook, anyway, for it can boast of
dairy cattle numbering over ten thou-
sand.
* * *
Cattle buyers, es|»ecially for the large
packing houses, could gather up thou-
sands of heads of stock in prime condi-
tion at low figures, for a large number
of the farmers are over-stocked, espe
cially with young stock that is in prime
condition and just the thing for the meat
market.

Business was good in Tillamook City
this summer and continues good this
fall. Had the saloons been running and
thousands of dollnrs taken out of the
channels of trade by that means, it would
have been otherwise.
Every business
man will see the logic of this and will
admit that it is so if they are not pre
judiced. It amounts to this, a large pro
portion of the business that was pre

So the Northern Pacific railroad intends
building down the north bank of the
Columbia river. It is to be hoped that
the survey the Northern Pacific made
irom Scappoose to Tillamook Citv some
three or four years ago will be included
in the scheme, for it the Northern Pacific
is going to enter the enemy’s (Southern
Pacific’s) territory, then Tillamook is a
county that will prove an exceedingly
valuable feeder to the road on the north
bank of the Columbia river, for it could
