Mr \ an W iek
Headlight,
Sonic of the timber men have caused
a good deal of agitation in this coun
ty recently in an attempt to run the
county court and as there appears to
be some difference of opinion among
st them over the 50 per cent nota
tions. some of the timbermen are
in the same class as the dairymen
assessed at 50 per cent more than
other timber owners.

the short distance and direct
communication between
the two
county seats. It is beneficial to us be
cause of the fact Tillamook County
will receive much better judicial ser
vice than heretofore, due to more
frequent terms of court and the in
tentions, so I am informed, of Judge
Bagley, in order to expedite letiga-
tion, is to hold special terms of court
here from time to time, as occasions
require. It is reasonable to say that
by reason of this, large sums of mon^
ey will be saved the taxpayers and
that lit'igants will be saved much
time and annoyance. Lastly, the legal
business of Washington County has
reached proportions such as made it
absolutely necessary, in order to re
lieve the congestion, that a new dis
trict be created, therefore a combina
tion most beneficial to both counties
was brought about.
Respectfully,
F. R. Beals.
