that alwavs gives a city a bud reputa

called lor behaviour, and. no doubt, a
large number of citizens will agree wiih
us that it is only another incident in the
sillv. idiotic factional fights which have
been goingonfor years, which, simmered
down, amounts to this : A fight between
the respectable, law abiding citizens and
the lawless persons who are and have
been allowed to violate the saloon, the
gambling and the local option laws, It
is about time that the citizens and the
business men demand a more rigid en.

We understand that the dairymen are
not going to he tooled, but ridicule the
nnslrading and untruthful statement
that thev ate loosing $50,000 a year by
the present method of disposing ol thr
cheese output ol this county. It IS plain
to most every dairyman that less job

are tietter it is for the producer. Quite a
lew persons have speculated in cheese,
some of whom were forced out of busi

the dairymen loosing their ntonev It
is more likely to cteata a loss of $50.000
to the dairymen than to increase it that
amount by makiju^uiy change under
present conditions. G iiii advice to the
dairymen is to let well enough alone and
not to be fooled by misleading statements
about loosing $50,000. Any big fool,
who dorsn't know anything about it.
can make ascritions to that effect, but
cannot prove them by experience and

We move that the business men get
together and work together lor the pur*
pose ol imikmg Tillamook Citv a live,
wide awake progressive city. A busi
ness men's club is now in nr ier and also
necessary so as to bring business men
together on one common plattorm and
tn buiy all petty factinnal diffetences.
Tillamook City is admirable situated
and can be ma.le ns pretty a city as any
city in Oregon, and will lie, whenever the
business nen rise to the situation and
make up their minds that they are going
about it in a business manner. It mav
take a little moral couiage to btmg the
hardened lawbreakers and the hoodlum
element under restraint, but it must lw
done Other places have had to contend
with tlie same class before thev «raid
accomplish much. As this is a tAost op
portune time to improve anJ straighten
up the city's affairs, it is now up to the
business men whether they will make
this a common caste ami become ener

To the Voters of Tillamook City :
At the election to be held next Tues
lay, caitain amendment» are proposed
to the charter of the Fort of Tillamook,
fbexe amendment« provide for the levy
of a tax of not exceeding one mill upon
til the property within the Port, to 1»
iieed fur the improvement of Hoquarton
Slough and the harbor of Tillamook
City, with the further provision that an
additional mill may be levied upon a
majority vote of the voters residing
within the Port of Tillamook.
The amendments further provide that
the Port of Tillamook shall be governed
by a board of commissioners, one to f*
•■lected from each voting precinct and
one at large. As at present constituted
the commissioners are appointed hy the
mayor and conlirmed by the Port of
Tillamook.
If the amendments to the charter are
carried it is proposed to have a special
election for the purpose of voting upon
the question of taking in additional ter
ritory so that the Port of Tillamook will
include the whole of Hoquaiton |Pre
cinct. Tillamook Precinct. Fairview
Piecinct and South Prairie Precinct
I’liis will take in a large body of timber,
and a levy of one mill would then raise
ibout three tlmusind five hundred to
four thousand dollars in taxes. The
dreilge of the United States Governnien:
can be employed for about $4o0 00 per
uonth, and in addition to the aniouni
wl.ich the citizens here raise in this
'naiir.er. it is expected that the Govern-
nent will contribute at least us much
more.
The United States engineers have sur-
veyed a plan for the improyement cl
Hoquarton Slough by cutting a straight
channel from Tillamook City to the end
of Stillwell Ditch, reduciug the distance
about one mile and providing for s
channel 150 feet in width, with a depth
of eight feet of water at low tide, and
providing for the widening of the har
bor at Tillamook City to a width of two
hundred feet. It is estimated that tins
work can be dune, allowing for the wort
at the rate at ten cents per yard, for
about $60.000 00. Present work is being
■ ibne for about three cents per yard,
that an all >wance of ten cents per yard
would he ample to cover the outaid'
limit of expense, and in all probahilit'
the total expense would be leas than half
of the amount above named.
If this project is carried out vessels ol
much larger capacity can come direct to
Tillamook City and load freight. Also,
there will be excellent facditiea I'm
booming grounds for large saw mills in
the tiends of the slough which will he
cut i ff The project is one which means
very much to the people of Tillamook
City and the farmers in the adj'iining
country, as It woul ’ mean cheap trans,
portatluu and waler competition at all
limes. A large number of the farmers
in the territory which it ia wish'd to
I ave s ided to the Port of TillamiMik are
in favor of the plan, and the owners of
limla-r have also exnressed themselves
a- being favorable to it and w'llling to
pay tlieir proportion of the tax, which
will be a large part of the taxes which
will be raised.
Plats showing the proposed improve
menu may lie seen at the office of
Claude Thayer,Tillamook County Bank,
Carl Haberiach, H. T. Botts and at the
Government headquarters.
We uige that the proposed amend
menu be adopted and that each votet
