local Organization Formed
to Help the Good Roads
Movement in Oregon
To hold meetings at the court house
as often as once in each month.
To provide for a small membership fee
to defray incidental expenses rf the asso­
ciation.
Such other regnlatinns or hv laws as
may be found desirable or necessary to
accomplish the purpose for which the
organization is formed.
C. W. Talmage moved its adoption
which was carried later in the evening
Some fine good roads talks were made
by Countv Judge H F. Goodspeed, wh«»
could spend all the money the taxpayer*
could stand for good roads. Commis­
sioners Bodjfelt and Alley also expressed
themselves ready to do everything they
could to improve the roads. Ro I lie W.
Watson, Judge Scott and others spoke,
and it appeared to be the opinion ol
those present that if Yamhill and Clatsop
counties would co operate a splendid
wagon road could be constructed from
Sheridan, through Tillamook county, t<
Astoria, which would be one means o I
opening up the county for tourist an»
summer travel.
It was carried that President Botts
choose the first officers of the association,
and he named :
Frank Severance, president ;
R. W. Watson, firai vice president ;
W. C. King, second vice president ;
Erwin Harrison, secretary ;
M. F. Leach, treasurer.
A banquet was tendered Judge Scott
and Mr. Albert at the Allen House, an*1
it reflected great credit upon Mrs. Allen
for the excellent manner in which it wafi
served, and for several hours the good
roads advocates enjoyed themselves
around the festive boards.
On Saturday Judge Scott. Mr. Albert
Judge Goodspeed, and Commissioners
Bodyfelt and Allen went to Nehalem ii
Watson’s automobile,going as far as the
Clatsop county line. On their return
Judge Scott and Mr. Albert expressed
their surprise at the good roads they had
gone over and the magnificent country
they had visited. They left on Sunday
for Salem, being delighted with theii
visit to Tillamook.

as to how taxes should be assessed, and
finally the county contracted to have
every acre of its timber lands cruised
and sealed, paving
cents an acre
tor the work. Then they sent out a
check cruiser, who was given engineers
to assist where necessary, In that way
they save ascertained the exact condi­
tions, and instead of assessing taxes
hereafter at so much an acre, they will
be levied upon the thousand feet of
growing timber that each acre carries.
In that way they propose to make the
capitalist who is holding timber land
bear an adequate portion oi the expens­
es of running the county.
The officials
are so positive that their maps are ac­
curate that they are willing to uphold
them in case oi controversey.

“Tillamook trout streams are great,

The first trout takes the flv. shoves it

good many bear are reported.

League, called the afternoon meeting to
order in the court house, when Judge J.
II. Scott, president of the Oregon Good
Roads Association, and Mr. J H. Albert,
oi Salem, were present to talk upon the
the good roads movement in Oregon. As
arrangements had been made to enter­
