So indignant were the people of Tillamook county with the saloons and the robbers who ran the gambling joints, that had it been also a question up for settlement to deprive Tillamook City of its charter it would have carried with as large a ma jority as it did to wipe out the saloons. The Astorian ought to join us in our de mand fora law to deprive incorporated cities of their charters where they will not enforce the law, but in the meantime join the anti saloon league, expose the gambling robbers who infest Astoria in the newspapers, and make the grafters go to work or leave town, and in doing so appeal to the men who have been fleeced at the gambling tables of their hard-earned money.
