TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT. SEPTEMBER 1. 1910
Editorial Snap Shots
The proprwed new city char­
ter exterminate» the present
Water Commission, (let ready,
gentlemen, to have vour headr
decapitated
Quite a numtier of persons
coincide with the snap sho;
man that the county’s out-
standing indebtedness should
be paid off the next lew years.
Thi.t is a matter for the next
county court to tackle, and we
hope it will do so, for it would
lie a nice thing to say and boast
about, that the county was out
of debt.
Bro. Hofer is wanting to be
governor awfully bad, but peo­
ple do not look seriously upon
liis candidacy.
Somehow it
does not look exactly the thing
to us to see an editor trotting
all over the state tooting his
own horn.
It does lieat the
band to what extremes some
men will goto when they get a
political bee buzzing in their
bonnets.
We think that the proposed
< ity charter should be amended
in regard to bonded indebted­
ness. There is a tendency ol
running municipal corpora­
tions headlong into debt,and the
proposed charter will have the
effect of hastening that in Till­
amook City, Besides the pres-
ent bonded indebtedness for
the water system, it will lie
able to bond itself in the sum
sum of $1,200,000 ! 1! Is’nt that
a big enough sum to stagger
file average taxpaper, espe­
cially whim it will be those who
own little or no property who
can put this bondage yoke on
this city and the payers.
It was the hope of a number
of citizens that in revising the
< ity charter that the committee
would prohibit till games, seats
and screens from saloons,as well
as side and back rooms, for in
that way it would not be as
congenial places for saloon
bums t,ml the riff raff to congre­
gate.
It is true that this can
be done, but it would have been
far better to have it distinctly
incorporated iti the new city
charter, for it would have pre­
vented a good deal of squabbles
in city elections, for this is how
quite a mimberof persons desire
to see saloons run in this city
whenever the county goes dry
again.
It will I m * noticed that the
proposed new city charter i ta­
poses upon the mayor the re*
spoiiMibility of running ci f y
affairs, lie is made the boss,
as it were, of the city, mid the
business affairs of the city will
he run by commissions ap­
pointed by the chief executive.
'I'hi* mayor will have the power
to appoint a chief of police and
tin* power also to retire any
member on the commissions
mid Un* chief of police as well,
which is probably agoisl move,
for many mayors of Tillamook
City have Imd to bear the
odium resulting from the city
niiirHlml's failure to do his
duty.
”1 feel that it would lie proper
to call an assembly of Demo-
unites, Imth in the severnl coun­
ties mid in the state, to adopt a
< e 1 I ration of principles and to
suggest to voter» capable ami
i arcfiil men to lie voted for at
the general election. I think
that such action would lie salu­
tary and would arouse enthu­
siasm among our friends every­
where.” Extract from letter
written by Governor George K.
Chamberlain to A. K. Stillman,
of Umatilla County, in IHOtl.
If it is considered proper for
Democrats to hold an assembly
to ' adopt a declaration of prin­
ciples and to suggest to voter»
eurefill men to lie voted for nt
the general election ” why all
the hubbub and protests be­
cause the Republicans have
done the same.
One thing also in connection
with the prnjioaed city charter
which should not t»e overlooked,
mid that in the amount to
which the citizens can tie taxed,
The maximum is 25 mills,
made up ns follows: fl mills
for general purpoaea; 10 mills
for roads niul streets, fl mills
for water systems; 5 mills for
sewer systems, and I mill for
parka. Nothing for public li­
brary. It will be noticed that
it seems to be still necessary to
provide for funds for water
systems, notwithstanding the
assertions which were made
some years ago that the reve­
nue from the water system
would pay the running ex-
I>ensea of the city.
Wmtlirr con.litinn* in lilla
mook last week were ideal for
the county to be swept from one
end to the other by the fire fiend,
but, fortunately, the danger was
averted, simply because the
wiud changed, although while
the East wind lasted it caused
a great deal of anxiety. Now
that the danger is over for the
time being, it is too soon to say
that the danger is over this year.
What we want to remind our
readers is the fact that when­
ever a tire gets started it is the
settlers, to a large extent, who
suffer, and not the timber own­
ers. And we want to say this,
that it was the timber owners
who paid the bills for those who
fought tire last week and they
Were instrumental in saving a
large amount of the settlers’
property. All will admit that
the lire wardens did excellent
work, yet we must say that the
settlers have not used the liest
of judgment in setting out tire,
not only endangering their own
property, but that of their neigh­
bors and the timber as well.
We consider that the county
had a dose call last week, and
it is to be hoped that it will
have the effect of making the
settlers more careful about set­
ting out fire at this season of
the year.
We believe we are
giving good advice to all con­
cerned when we say that no
logs, brush or slashing should
be set on fire from the early
part of August until the fall
rains.
Vosburg Crew Claims Race.
Members of the crew of the tug
George R. Vosburg are elated over
their version of a race from Tilla­
mook to Astoria, in which they
assert their craft, towing the barge
Nehalem, arrived two hours in
advance of the steamer Golden
Gate. The tug and steamer sailed
from Hobsonville in company, but
once outside the former hugged
the shore pnd on reaching the
Columbia made time by steaming
close to the jetty.
The Vosburg will be inspected
while in Portland and leaves out with
a shipment of steel for tlie Pacific
Railroad A Navigation Company,
a number of ballast cars for use on
the Nehalem jetty and smaller
cargo.
Later box cars are to be
transported with the remainder of
the rail shipment.
