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

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
