instigators of the case never intended it

was not their object. Here is the logical
conclusion : If a county clerk is an offi­

entitled to the fees, he must also be an
official of the government in taking land
office proofs and entitled to the lees.

The business men of Tillamook City
and the dairymen of the county being
almost a unit in favor of the establish­
ment of a new line of steamers between
here and Portland, and the business men
having taken up the matter of boosting
the county with a good deal of enthu­
siasm, a pull together club room is now
in order, where the business men can
spenc o few hours together in the even­
ing and talk over matters of interest to
the entire county. We would like to see
the business men the coming summer
make occasional trips to different parts
of the county, and in that wav ascertain
the needs of every section, and by work­
ing hand-in hand with the County
Court, we believe many improvements
would be made and a better and more
friendly spirit would be the result. We
make these few remarks simply as a sug.

He was instrumental in introducing two
bills which were of particular intereet to
Tillamook county, one being for a dairy
and cheese inspector for this county, and
which he succeeded in getting passed in
both houses, but it wan vetoed by Gov­
ernor Chamberlain. The other was a
bill to compel timber owners to furnish
assessors cruiser's estimates of the
amount of timber on their land. The
timber barons fought the bill and had a
strong lobby at Salem to defeat it.
Mr. Beals managed to get the bill thro­
ugh the house, but it met its Waterloo
in the senate owing to the influence of
the timber barons and the dishonorable
tictics of some of the state senators, and
it caused a sharp newspaper criticism at
the time, for it disgusted the people to
have a just bill like that defeated in the
manner in which, it was
It was and a
great disappointment to the people of

Perhaps it is a little premature in this
neck of the woods for us to recommend a I
changé in the system of road construe-1
tion. Il ia well known that the Head-1
light was opposed to the road boss sys-l
tern, in which the county judge bossed
the commissioners ; the judge and com-
missioners bossed the road master ; the J
judge, commissioners and road master
bossed the road supervisors ; and the
judge, commissioners, road master and
road supervisor all bossing the men who
worked on the road. From an econbinic
and business standpoint, we are firmly
of the opinion that the county court
should organize a road crew once a ve«r,
put it in charge of a competent person,
and with this crew do all the road work
of the county, or as long as the money
lasted. We believe that to be the best
and proper system. There is this objec­
tion to it, however. It would deprive a
number of farmers from road work and
a source of income in some sections of the
county. We hope the farmers will par­
don us. but probably they will agree
with us if they would consider the mat­
ter ¡fairly, that a well-organized road
crew, kept steadily at work, would do
more and better work than the farmers
who do a few weeks road work occasion­
ally. Another thing, under the present
system, no road supervisor would care
to tell his neighbor, who might be work­
ing on the road at a slow gait, to get a
move on or he’d fire him. This is a sub­
ject which has its pros and cons, but we
have long since made up our mind that
before many years most every county in
the county will see the wisdom of adopt­
ing it fiom un economic point of view.
To Boost Tillamook County.
A most enthusiastic meeting of a num­
ber of business men wns held on Friday
evening at the city hall to put the Tilla.
rnnok Development Lengue on its feet and
to provide wavs and means whereby the
lengue could carry on the work of
advertising (he county, with a view of
obtaining new settlers and new indus­
tries. The League was in debt to the
extent of over $200. as a result of going
behind that amount in last year’s fair.
The money was readily subscribed to
clear this indebtedness off, and another
subscription list was started to help
boost Tillamook county, some of the
business men agreeing to pay $20, $10,
$5 and so on per month, and when the
subscription list was circulated on Sat­
urday, the business men of this city had
agreed to pay $150 a month to carry on
the Development League work. A large
delegation waited on the County Court
on Saturday morning with a view of
getting some help from the county, when
the situation was plainly J put to the
court by a number of business men, and
after the court had privately considered
the matter, agreed to appropriate $50 a
month tor several months. This will
make about $200 a month the Develop­
ment League will have towards helping
boom the county. Ralph Ackley is to
open a real estate office in Portland, and
he made a proposition to the League on
Friday that if it would do some adver­
tising in the Portland newspapers he
would ul* h,‘ o(r,ce for “ Tillamook in­
formation bureau and would induce peo-
