TO EDITOR OF
TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT.
Dear Sir,—Inclosed is a letter which
Speaks for itself and we would be glad
if you would give it publication.
Yours very truly,
J. II. W hyte ,
with no hitch ; but even in the event
that something untoward should arise
so that Mr. Evans' plans go astray, it
should not be forgotten that the Cham
ber of Commerce still holds an absolut
elv reliable offer to take half of the bonds
of the company the moment they are
put on the market.
“Tillamook will never have a better
chance to aid in the opening of a rail
way than right now,” said one of the
men back ol the enterprise yesterday.
‘Our line will go through. All that we
ask of Tillamook is that the business
men there raise money enough lor the
preliminary surveys between cannon
Beach and Tillamook, as we have done
for the work from this city to Cannon
Bench. They can procure the rights ol
way better than we can. Then, the mo
ment that all the preliminary work is
done, two propositions will be made to
the Tillamook men by Mr. Evans. First,
that he will pay them injcasli for every
dollar thev have laid out, or will give
them the value in stock in the new road
Mr. Evans said last evening that such
is the plan that will lie proposed to Ibe
fillnmook men. "Only.’’ he said, "I
would prefer that they accept cash in
stead of stock in the new company.’’
rhe real desire is to interest the men of
that country to the end that the surveys
may be made and the rights of way se
cured with the least resistance ¡possible.
Naturally, local meu can aid best in that
work.
Mr. Evans, promoter of the new line,
said yesterday that the survey force is
now within six or seven miles of Sea I
side. They will be there some time next
week. It has been decided that the line
will run through the cemetery along the
section line, running between the Pot
ter's field aud the main part of the burial
ground.
"We will run a loop northward from
there, also," said Mr. Evans, "so as to
tap all of the rich country that lies to
the north, The loop will go north to
Flayel. and will also touch on the
grounds of the military reservation. On
this loop will be operated two or three
loop cars, to connect with the cars of
the main line.
Astoria, Or., July 25th, 1908.
The Hon. Mayor, Tillamook, Ore.
Dear Sir.—We wish to call your at
tention to the enclosed article from the
Morning Astorian. We will soon have
completed our survey from Astoria to
Hetside, and when this survey u finished
it is our intention to continue on to
Canon Beach. From that point to Till

of money here to complete our end of

From the Asturian.
1 hat the city of Tillamook does not
seem to display the interest that it
should in the projected Astoria, Seaside
«■ Tillamook Electric Railway Company
lias recently been the source of consider
nlile comment among some of the lead
ing business men of this city.
Out the
reason for this fact may not be difficult
of ascertainment, it is pointed out, by
others.
"For years Tillamook has thought
and dreamed of little but railroads,’*
said one Aatorian yesterday who is
thoroughly familiar with conditions in
the couuty south of Clatsop, "and they
have been fooled so often that naturally
enough it is hard lor them to havelaith
in a new railway project. That is prob
ably the reason why so little attention
is being paid to the presenlplan." Never
theless the boniness men of Astoria who
are tiehind the projected electric line are
going to make an etMrt to Interest the
Tillamook men. With that end in view
it is probable that some ol the local men
w ill make a trip to Tillamook aooti, and
put the matter before business men
there. It will be pointed out that Astoria
has raised $10,0110 which is being used
for the preliminary work, and that if
the present plans are carried out in the
manner that is now promised, the work
of actual construction of the line to Sea
side will bo commenced within a couple
of months.
Practically every man interested io
the line is willing to stake his money
us well as Ins business judgment on the
success ol the line. That It will he built
within a reasonably short time is simply
takrn as an assured fact. All the money
required to complete nil of the prelimi
nary work l>etween this city and Cannon
Beach has already been raised, and is
being ex pen, led in the surveys anjJ other
like work. Of course the real cruz ol
the whole enterprise is to finance it. The
promoter of the {project. Mr. Evans,
states that he stands prepared to secure
all the money required. Those who are
in bis confidence have ample reason to
belle re that bis plans will carry through
WHEN FOOD WAS SCARCE.
Prices That Ruled In Paris During ths
8iegc of 1870.
The following Interesting statement
of the prices that were paid for food
during *be Blege of 1870 Is taken ver
bally out of the Journal of a French
cfllcer stationed In Paris at the time.
“Toward the middle of October we
