TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, NOV Cillamooh ^tablig^L Fred |C. Baker. Publisher. STOP THIS FBTTIPOGOINO. Nearly Two Years Since Alder man’s Shortage was Discovered and County Not in Conrt Yet. Live Toll Road Squibb9- What good have the toll ronda done Tillamook County ? * If * What harm have the toll roads done Tillamook County ? • * * Anyway, what kind of a "graft” are the toll roads upon the people ? » ♦ * Into whose pockets have most of the money gone that was collected in recent years on the toll roads ? * * * The H eadlight wants to see a good public highway in and out of the countv, well graveled and free from toll gates. If you want to get into that kind of a band wagon next election, get into the H eadlight band wagon and help whoop the good cause along and to a final issue. "All aboard, gentlemen !” for it’s going to be a clean cut issue b<- tween toll ronds nnd free roads. Our motto is : "Get out of the Road fot the Tillamook Free Roaders I" And the toll gates will have to, for the Free Roaders have thrown the gauntlet down, are in fora determined scrap and don’t pro­ pose to let up until they triumph. That is the class of people who are invitedin to the H eadlight ' s band wagon to take a seat alongside those who have taken off their coats and opened their purses to rid the county of toll roads. * * * As long ns a few persons can make a little money out of toll roads the county can go plumb to—well, the hot place, lor all they care. But there's hell fire iudig nation amongst the people, though, and when it br-aks loose next spring, those who have advocated toll roads and had the audacity to bartered away the peo pie’s rights in leasing a toll road for 50 years will then know something of this hell fire indignation. The people for once aroused themselves tn Tillamook, and in their indignation wiped out the saloon gambling "graft," which was a curse to the city and county. The next "graft” to go is the toll roads, for that is not only a “graft” upon the citizens, but it is a "graft” upon the traveling public and those who are looking for homes, who, wl.en thev find themselves “graft ed” in that wav, leave in disgust and locate elsewhere. The population of Tillamook County hns only increased in five years to the extent of 51 persons, so it can be plainly seen what the toll rouds are doing for the countv. « On ff*.™ with s Fish Brand FIND OF DIAMONDS NEW WINTER FABRICS. Great Excitement is Created the Necanicum. S easide . Or., Noy. 19.—During the past week there has been intense excite-! ment on the Necanicnm. The secret ol it all lies in the fact that an ochre mine, which is being developed just above the bridge across the Necanicum on the Elk Creek road, has been yielding precious stones. Diamond. and Rubies are said to be in evidence and a number of people have located claims. The ochre is of finest quality and plen­ ty of the best fireclay ever discovered is there, but when precious stones were dis covered the excitement reached fever­ heat nnd people were coming from Port­ land to he guided to the diamond fields, everything looked good; to the seeker after precious stones and every pebbel thev saw looked to them like a diamond in the rough. They are hoping that the digging will not "soon be over,” but will continue until thev have secured bushels of precious stones. The ochre is being sacked nnd shipped to Portland to be subjected to the neces­ sary refining process, and from present indications a great industry will be built up nenr Seaside, which will give employment to a large number of men. This, aside from any precious stones which may be found in the mine, is the most desirable feature connected with the enterprise.

Why it was put over again last week was because only part of the bondsmen named in the complaints had been served with papers, so fudge Burnett did not see the neces­ sity of having two trials for one case, and as there are four complaints it would mean no end oflawing.
