those xxrnri
who
have “flopped" over to what is commonly called
the progressive or Bull Moose party. It is our pur
pose in this article to show that the Republican party
ig the genuine progressive party and made good to
the people. It is not our intention to discuss the
progressive policies of the Republican party in the
abstract or from a theoretical standpoint, nor from a
distance, but what most of us are perfectly familiar
with and experienced for a number of years in our
midst. Also, that the citizens of Tillamook County
have participated in the financial benefits on account
of the progressive policies of the Republican party.
In Tillamook County the people had to hustle for a
livelihood because this was a new, undeveloped
country, consequently we are about all in one class,
belonging to what is called the common people. Let
us now see what the Republican party have done
directly and indirectly for Tillamook County and
how our citizens have prospered.
First.—Most everybody knows that those who owned timber
claims during the Cleveland administration, could not get $500
forthem. Hy a change of administration these timber claims
are now worth from $5,000 to $29.030, and by the increase in the
valuation of timber, the timber owners are now paying 80 per
cent of the taxes of the county. In other words, the timber
pays 80c. to 20c. paid by the dairyman and others to build
roads, bridges, schools, etc. Thanks to the progressive policy
of the Republician party.
Second.—When the Democrats were in control of the country,
the best dairy lands in Tillamook County could be bought for
about $25 00 an acre. Now they are worth all the way from
$200.00 to $500.00 an acre. Thanks to the Republican prosperity.
Third.-When the dairy industry was in its infancy in Tillamook
county, it had a hard struggle during Democratic hard times.
All that the dairymen obtained for 100 pounds of milk was
about 50 cents. It was impossible to boost the price of butter
and cheese when the dairy industry was in its infancy in this
county and it was a hard struggle with most of those who
were endeavoring to foster this industry to be paid so small
price# for their products. When a change of administration
came the price advanced from year to year, and where the
dairymen received only 50c per 100 pounds for their milk they
have been receiving over $1.50 the past few years. Republi
cian prosperity gave the dairy industry of this county a big
boost, as all those who were engaged in the business at that
time will admit
Fourth.—It was hard for men to get work at 50c. to 75c. a day for
common labor, and many went hungry because they could not
obtain employment at those small figures during the indus
trial stagnation when the people put the democrats into harness.
Common labor in now paid $2.50 to $3.00 a day and skilled labor
from $4.00to $5.00 a day. All honor to the progressive policy of
the Republican party that the laboring man is now being well
paid, for thia puts money into circulation.
Fifth. —During the last Democratic fiuaucial panic, money was
ao scarce that few persona in Tillamook county had banking
accounts. Probably 50 persons, and these mostly business
men, had banking accounts in the Bank of C. 4 E. Thayer
Today there are at least 4000 persons in Tillamook County with
banking accounts, largely made up of the dairymen. Take
for instance the September statements of the two largest bank
ing institutions in the county, and we find that the Tillamook
County Rank has $456,313.21 on hand and the First National
Bank $214,909.53, which, with the other banks in the county,
amount to about three quarters of a million dollars. The
Republician party caused confidence in the country, and in
stead of people hiding it away it is now in circulation.
Sixth.—Tillamook County was bottled up for want of tran»porta-
tion. aud the reason that it obtained a railroad was on account
of plenty of money in circulation during the Republican ad
ministrations. There are good prospects ot the Hill system
building, and other roads, should present conditions continue,
but should there be a change of administration it is safe to
say that these will be delayed indefinitely.
Seventh.—The Republican party gave Tillamook County a rural
free delivery a postal savings hank and a parcels post is to
he established in January. The government has approved the
bar project at Nehalem and appropriated $100,090 towards that
enterprise, and decided upon the improvement of Tillamook
bar. agreeing to pay $460,000 towards that project. These two
project«, when completed, will make the county au industrial
bee hive when the Panama Camil, which was undertaken by
the Republican party, ia complete.
1
Eighth.—Business men in all lines of trade have done and are
doing a prosperous business. Take for instance the liquor
busiuess in this county. Because there is more money in circu
lation these places of business have been doing a thriving
business, which they could not do should things tighten up bv
a change of government.
v 1
Why not. then, let well enough alone ? We have
been enjoying progressive prosperity in Tillamook
County for several years, as all fair minded persons
must admit, and which should be appreciated by the
citizens. But the politicians and office seekers have
been sowing the seeds of discontent in their attempt
to belittle President Taft and defeat the Republican
party. It is now up to the people to decide whe
ther they intend to go back on the most progressive
party the country ever had. the most prosperous
times they have ever enjoyed, and take a leap in the
dark
The people have been hoodwinked in Oregon
long enough, and instead of falling all over them
selves in behalf of some wild-cat system of legisla
tion. it is time to cut it out. for the Republican party
made good iu the past as it will make good in the
future, and without the assistance of those who have
gone over to the one man partv. In conclusion we
want to say that should there be a change of admin
istration, the prosj>erous times w ill change, not for
the better This is not said to scare the voters for
it is generally agreed that a slum will immediatelv
follow, shonld President Taft fail to be re-elected ’
