illainnnk I TILLAMOOK. OREGON, JUNE io, 1909. Did it ever occur to you why all good business men keep a checking account with a bank ? We’ll tell you. It enables them to keep their funds in a more secure place than the office safe. It gives them a better standing in the business world. It enables them to pay their bills by check, the returned check being an undisputable receipt. Individuals find a checking account very convenient and a source of saving. Money in one’s pocket is often spent ou the spur of the moment,'while one is disposed to think twice before drawing on his balance iu the bank. G et T he S avings H abit . Lay up for a rainy day. Start a bank account with THE OLD RELIABLE.” TILLAMOOK CITY ORE. SUPERVISION The mail stage between Tillamook City and Sheridan is doing a big passen ger business, as the fare is reduced io $2.50, which makes it the cheapest route in and out of the county. C. R.

Stillwell, Robert Stillwell, A. Berry, F. J Kerr. Mr. McKe.nen, Mr. Doughty, Mary Weston, T. A. Taylor, W. Reavis and Fred Murphy. It is not decided vet whether to hold a 4th of July celebration in this citv, as there appears tobesoine indifference and the committee that did the soliciting did not meet with the success in raising suf ficient funds, so President C. E. Reynolds has taken the matter in hand, Mr. Geo. E. Wellman, manager of the E. I. du Pont de Nemours Powder Co., who travels all over the Western States, thinks Tillamook City has a bright and prosperous future before it, mote so than any town he visits. And to show his faith in the city's growth and expan sion, he has bought city property. The receipts from fees for May in the County Clerk'soffice amounted to $411, 24, which is plain proof that that office is a sojirce of revenue to the county and shows the large amount of work County Clerk Holden and his deputy have to do, yet all the county is paying Deputy County Clerk K. Mills |is $50 a month for a $100 job. James Walton, jr„ cashier of the First National Bank, and Rudolph Kunze were the first fish to be caught violating the new law on Sunday, and next day complaints were sworn out against them by Deputy Fish and Game Warden A. A. Osborn. It was their intention to have taken out licenses, but they failed to do so in time. F. R Beals has sold O. E. Wilson's property to B. T. Randall for $3000, and there is a misunderstanding somewhere, for the property was sold to B. C. Lamb some few weeks ago, so there are now two deeds on record from Mr. Wilson. This is the corner on Main street which had the buildings burned off in the recent fire, and is one of the choice business cor nels in the city. Those who are breeding horses in this county will be very fortunate in having an opportunity to breed to one of the highest classed horses of the Pacific Coast, viz , the trotting stallion Major Weitzel, which will make a fall seasoa in Chis county, and should avail them selves of this opportunity and try to make it an object for Dr. E. P. Rogers to bring hisstailion to Tillamook ano ther year. County Clerk Holden is issuing fishing licenses to all females and males under 15 years of age free ot charge, and males over 15 are charged $1. It i« illegal for anyone to fish before they have first ob tained a license, which they must carry with them when they go fishing. As the new fish law is distasteful to those who own land along the rivers and streams, a large number of the farmers have post ed notice prohibiting persons from tress passing, hunting or fishing. A raft of piling, belonging to the Cha. pin-Potter Realty Company went to sea early Monday morning. It contained 720 lineal feet, and the piling was worth over $500, not including the chains and anchors which went to sea with it. The raft was caught in the swift current in the bay and dragged its anchors, and G. A. Jones endeavored hard to anchor or slop it. and when below the Sound Pigs be had to cut the gasoline launch Pay ocean loose from the raft and run for safety to prevent being carried out to sea also. The raft remained entact wlien it went over the bar, and if it does not pile up on the beach, which it is likely to do, it will be a menace to shipping until it goes to pieces. As was expected, the $1.50 per year, raft broke up after it had been tossed I historic fame were cited as examples of ‘Debating in the high School'1 was dis- a bout-by the s^a, and strange as it may success and hlro failure, but character cussed by Mr. Richen, with valuable seem, 200 of the piling went ashore on and devotion to high principles of suggestions which have come from his the ocean side of Bayocean Park, which living were emphasized as the only real own experience as a successful debator. belongs to the Cl api 1 Potter Realty Co. successs in life, or as being worth w hile, Ralph Moore, ot the Bay City High Geo.
