That ought to relieve fiitn some of the pavement mal ady, _____________ Cheer up and look pleasant. The stormy season will soon be over and then everything will progress as usual, with a bright summer’s business. G. W. Grayson, who bucked up against numerous difficul ties while driving stage and packing mail across the moun tain, when he saw a work en gine pull in all covered with mud, exclaimed "That puts one in mind of the old stage.” Work ou the jetty for tbe im provement of Tillamook bar will soon be started, and it will not be long now before results will be seen in this much needed and long prayed for improve ment. In view of this fact it is none too soon to devise ways and means for the deepening of the channel from this city to the bay, for this is the most im portant question that confronts this city today. If the city is to have the growth that we all expect that it will have, noth ing will bring it about quicker than a deep channel to the sea. New and substantial buildings, tine paved streets, cement side walks and a sewer system have added much to make this one of the progressive cities of Oregon, but all this is insigni ficant in comparison to the im portance of making this a deep water shipping port. Somehow our citizens do not realize nor conceive what a large amount of commerce to this city would follow the deepening of the channel to the sea. Let all ef forts be concentrated and no stone left unturned to start this improvement. It is enough to jnr anybody, especially visitors, where there are large, handsome, modern buildings and tine paved streets, to find the mayor of a progress ive city doing business in one of the oldest shacks in town, and that on the sidewalk and interfering with travel The shacks on that and opposite cor ners are monuments of moss- Tillamook County is becom backism. ing too much of a business cen ter to be bottled-up long on ac have published an inter count of a tie-up on the P.R. & esting document this week—the N. every winter.

Colonel Worrall came into the snap shot man’s sanctum, with all the dignity imaginable, dressed up as though he had just been ironed out in one of the pressing parlors,pretending that he was looking for trouble with the editor. By the way, the colonel’s fighting days are over, for he craw-fished when he was told that we were game for any old fight he wanted. Then he related how he had t>een tin merifully roasted at one time no doubt but what he deserved it—by the newspapers, and he did not want a second edition, anyway, not by the snap shot man, who, he said, knew how to handle himself in roasting the other fellows. That may account forthe many invitations the snap shot man have had to dine with the colonel, for he evidently does not want to cross swords with another newspaper man after the first severe roast ing he received. The colonel has now a wholesome respect for the Press. At tbe Commercial Club the other evening Attorney C. W. Talmage suggested that there should be a get together, harmo nious spirit amongst the mem bers and citizens, others taking the same view. Preaching is one thing and practice is ano ther. The organization of the club was instrumental in elimi nating a factional tight that was in existence for years, and peace and harmony prevailed in an effort to improve the city. What brought a rupture, more than anything, was one faction of business men employing detec tives to investigate other busi ness men. Whether it is possi ble to bring about a reconcilia tion at this time, with such a strong resentment against those who concocted the dirty busi ness, we have our doubts. It is sure to crop up in the future and act as a boomerag. How ever, we are inclined to be lieve that it would not be out of place to try, at any rate, to fos ter a more friendly, get toge ther spirit. As far as the snap shot num is concerned, he would take the same position to-mor row and defend the characters of business men who were in vestigated” by a dirty detective agency. That is what made a whole lot of citizens "sore,” and they are going to remain ‘ sore’’ for a long time to come unless something is done to heal up the “sore” spots and create a get together spirit. To put it briefly, the detective business was simply a repetition of the rule or ruin spirit that prevail ed in this city for so many years and retarded its progress, the only difference is that others ___ _________ want to either rule or ruin. It was impossible to have harmony in the city under the Thayer regime,and it is impossible now when the same rule or ruin spirit remains in others, who employed dirty detectives to “investigate ” respectable busi ness men. Hut if anything can lie done to create harmony and a get together spirit we will give it our support, but we reserve our rivht to severely criticise any more rule or ruin factions in this citv. well as its predecessors, the Board of Fish Commissioners) has propa gated and stocked, and is pr pa- ,ting and stocking the waters of Tillamook Bay and its tributaries, in Tillamook County, State of Ore gon, with salmon fish, and WHEREAS, said Tillamook Bay and its tributaries are frequented by salmon fish, and for the pur pose of protecting the same the said State Board oi Fish and Game Com missioners has decided to close a tributary of said Tillamook Bay, [ known as Hoquarton Slough, and its tributaries, above a point on said Hoquarton Slough 47 de grees 31 minutes West 2,013.7 feet from the section corner common to Sections 23, 24, 25 and 26 of Town snip 1 South, Range 10 Wes* of the Willamette Meridian—this point on ; said Hoquarton Slough being more particularly designated by posts erected by the Master Fish Warden warning the public ; and also an other tributary of said Tillamook Bay, known as Tillamook River, and its tributaries, above a point 100 feet below the lowermost por- 1 tion of the mouth ot Trask River, all being in Tillimook County, State of Oregon, to prevent fishing therein by any means whatever, except with hook and line, com monly called angling, for salmon fish during the periods of time hereinafter specified.
