The man who had no more patriot ism than to get beastly drunk on the 4th isn't much of a man. is he? It was a good thing for all parties that airing the family limn of two Methodist temperance workers came to a sudden close It is :■ pity that it obtained so much publicity. Tip new dog law is a peach, but happily, it does nut apply to Tilla mook county. What a glorious time Oregon is having over freak legisla tion bv the state legislature and the sown ign will of the people. -------o------- Tie Sheridan Sun, in reporting the opening of the Sour Grass road said: "C. 1 Chapman, of Portland, editor or lie Oregon V oter, was chairman of the meeting.” That is on a par with the Oregonian, which said the Sour '>rass road is hard surfaced and was built by Polk and Tillamook. Very little has been published as to the treatment of prisoners in Ger many, but it is safe to say when the truth is known it will astonish the whole world with the harsh and cruel treatment they have undergone. We give an account of how Austra- lian prisoners were treated in this issui which will throw some light on the situation. W i don't know how many moon shiners there are in Tillamook, but with Uncle Sam nabbing them as well as the state, they are taking desper ate chances. What first started the ball rolling was one moonshiner finding his still was too small sold it to procure a larger one for prospec tive business. The di al leaked out anil the moonshiners as well as others are up against it good anil hard and we hope they will get stung good and hard. The United States is honeycombed with German spies and those who a re in sympathy with that country in the world wide war. It is time to take the bull by the horns and place all Ger man sympathisers in detention camps, anil this should he done without further discussion. The government tried to be considerate and lenient, but the plotters took advantage of this and plotted against the United States. A good big round-up is need ed, and right away. -------o------- Tillamook City is going to take a lively interest in the l<>th Comp.in V Coast Artillery, when it is mustered in. It is right and proper that we should all take a deep interest in our home boys. Wi- can do so by keeping in close touch with (hem and show our appreciation of the sacrifices they are ni.Jung. The folks at home will be with them ill spirit, and when they return let it be said of the people of Tillamook County that they did their bit to encourage and cheer the home boys. of fourteen million feet, and a person who if well posted unwittingly said it would big twenty million feet. That shows that some of the timber owners are paying one fourth the taxes they should be on their timber, while the dairyman who improved his farm and stocked it with blooded cattle, have to pay the full value on his property. This is something our Fairview friends should consider, for some of them fell all over the Dougal-Dougally-Do- Man and tagged after hint like a ket tle tied to a dog's tail. Let’s have a fair and square cruise of the timber, and not "soak" dairymen for the full amount of their property while thou sands of acres of timber lands are under cruised and the owners not pay- ing an equal proportion of taxation. Percentage Voting. The total number of ballots cast at the special election June 4, was the smallest in proportion to registration of any election since registration was established, undoubtedly due to the circumstance that it was a special election and not a regular election. Even in Multnomah County, where a regular city election was held, the number of ballots cast on state meas ures was the smallest in the history of the county since registration was established. Only 49 per cent of the registered vote actually cast ballots at the elec tion. In Multnomah County the pro portion was 59 per cent, while out in the state it was 45 per cent. Tilla mook County headed the list with 74 per cent vote, while Klamath County- 2 5 brought up a faint 25 per cent. Road Bonds. Eighteen of Oregon’s thirty-six counties were carried for the road bonds. In the Willamette Valley, the chief beneficiary of the paving, only two counties returned ___ __ ,______ majorities. The two were Yamhill and Washing ton. It was Eastern Oregon, South ern Oregon, and the coast counties ' which, with Multnomah's splendid majority, carried the bonds.

Klamath County was the lowest with only 25 per cent. The three Busy B’s—Reals Botts and Baker—-as they are called, must have put some ginger into the election in this county when 7 4 per cent of the registration went to the pulls. That should be a good argu ment with the State Highway Com mission when Tillamook's request for state aid is taken up, coupled with the fact that the people of this county voted three to one in favor of the state bonds. ’ Our respected friend. Bro. Tromb ley, suddenly "hushed up” about the pavement, probably it dawned upon him that the pavement case brought the city into bad repute and it is time that a settlement was made But if he wants to scrap it out with the snap shot manshot man. we're ready to do *0, for we do like a little scrap once in a while. Even the litigants appear to lx getting back to earth and be coming sober and sane, and, no doubt now realize that they Mowed in a big wad of money foolishly for a little ¡trim of high priced attorneys. And for doing the work which anv one of our local attorneys could have just as will performed at a moderately small amount. However, our respected brother is now on the “hush, hush, bit-h,'' band wagon, and. as usual, the snap «hot man is a real bad man be- i • - h<- has jibed the litigants for fo- bug away a lot of good money on high priced attorney s. < >ur attention was called to a little incident about rccniising the timber. On a certain timber claim in the county the county cruise gave about five million feet, it was sold recently llx lournal of Industrial and En.- ginci ring ( In mi-try of the American Chemical Society published a lively editorial in it- March issue. It has to do with the t ariff bill in its relation to dyestuffs. At the last moment in the framing of the bill by the House Committee on Ways and Mians the I following exceptions from the special I duty of live cents per pound w ere ad ded: "Natural and synthetic alizarin and dyi- obtained from alizarin, an thracene and carbazol, natural and synthetic indigo, and all indtgors whether or not obtained from indigo and medical flavors.” The record of the bill is followed up in detail. On its face it fret s from the special duty imports of turkey rid and other alizarin colors and indigo. This was effected through the influence of the late Mr. Caesar Cone, of Greensboro, N. t ’., w ho used the colors in his fac- tori< Congressman Kitchin, also of North Carolina, chairman of the Way - and Means committee, is asked to explain why. It is pointed out very clearly that the manufacture of the unprptectid products has not been undertaken, and if the country finds itself involved in war, the lack of them will render us just so much more backward in the making of mu nitions, for both industries are very closely re latcd Then follows the exposition of the joker, which consists in the words "all indigoids whether or not obtain ed from indigo" The climate of the I nited States, except in the Pltilip- nines, i- not tropical enough to grow natural indigo, so that this need not call« worry And if synthetic indigo is available it is so much cheaper and better than the natural product that till latter drop- out of use t he joker i- in th. word "indigoid-" What "in- dicoids" mean* is undetermined. Ex cellent authorities hold indigoid- to include all of the so-called sulphur color« of which vast quantities ire non ma le in thi- country and, owing to war conditions, are exported. It brings up the question whether a large part of the dyestuffs made in the United States will be really sub- iect to the specific duties set forth in the bill. The handwriting of the Ger- man color agent shows up between the lines. How he worked this joker in, is what the editor of the Journal of 1 1 idustria! and Engineering Chemistry | wants to know. LITTLE NESTUCCA ROAD GETS CONSIDERATION Secretary of Agriculture Approves Fifteen Road Projects in Oregon District Forester George H. Cecil, Portland, Oregon announces that ap- ! proval has been given by the Secre tary of Agriculture to cooperate road work in Oregon involving $1,114,194 which is distributed to fifteen pro- I jects. This amount is matched by the State, assisted in some instances by counties. Cooperation of this nature is warranted by the Shackleford Road ' bill, which become an Act July 1 $, ¡1917, and which is the direct out growth of an effort by Chief Forest er Graves and Secretary Houston to make the National Forests contribute to road building enterprises pending the time when large timbi r sales from these forests will automatically help the county • xchequers. The projects on which cooperation i.- ¡3 authorized by the Secretary are as follows: McKenzie Pass Road. Mount Hool LooJ> Road Eugene-Florence Road. Pcndleton-LaGrande Road. Medford-Klamath Falls Road. Ochoc Creek Rojd. Canyonville-Galesville Roail. Reedsport-Coos Bay Road. Little Nestucca Road. John Day Road. Flora-Enterprise Road. La Pine-Lakeview- Road. Pilot Rock-Prairie City Road. Crescent-Klamath Falls Road. Zigzag Road. Little Nestucca road, the location ol f which has not been determined, will serve as an outlet for the Will amette Valley to the various coast resorts in Tillamook County. The length of this project is approximat- ely 5j4 miles. NATIONAL GUARD TO BE DRAFTED AUG. 5 Standing as U. S. Troops to Be Un questionable. Washingtion, July 9.—The last step necessary to make the entire Nation al Guard available for duty in France was taken by President Wilson today with the issue of a proclamation drafting the state troops into the army of the United States on Aug. 5. To make certain that the purpose of the National defense act is carried out, the proclamation also specifical ly declares the men drafted to be dis charged from the old militia status on that date. In that way the constitutional re straint upon use of militia outside th. county is avoided and the way paved for sending the regiments to the Eu ropean front. Prior to the application of the Jraft. regiments in the Northern and East ern section of the country are calle I into the Federal service as National Guardsmen in two increments to I>e mobilized on July 15 and 25. Many units already are Federalized and presumably they will be moboliz- ed with the other troop* from their states. The guard from the other states will be moholized on the day of the draft. The arrangement was necessary to provide for movement of the regiments to their ewwsentration camps without congestion. The operation of the draft law was delayed until August 5 so that all regiments can be taken into- the army simultaneously. Fourteen camp cites for th«- 16 tactical divisions into which the guard will be organized’ have been selected already and the militia bureau is preparing the rail way routing of the troop's to the camps. Seven of the sites selected arc in- the Southeastern department, five in the Southern and two in th-e Western. The two others will be in rhe South eastern department and until they are approved assignments of regiments to camps and divisions cannot be ful ly worked out. The only two divis ions positively assigned are the Nine teenth. including the California Guard’ which will go to Linda Vista, Cal'., and the Twentieth, including Oregon, Washington and other states in the Northwest, which will go to Palo Alto, Cal. Captain S. S. Johnson has received orders that the 10th Company Coast Artillery, will be called out on the 25th and mustered hr on the 5th of August. Presumably the Oregon Coast Ar tillery will be directed to mobolire at the forts at the mouth of the Colum bia, particularly at Fort Stevens. No information has been received throwing any light on the question as to what disposition is to be made of the Coast Artillery troops. By many it is believed they will be utilized by the Government to man the heavy artillery that must be provided for the American Army in France. There are 12 companies of the Oregon Coast Artillery, situated at Ashland. Medford. Marshfield, Rose burg. Cottage Grove, Eugene, Albany Portland, Tillamook, Astoria Hood River.

Berkman will be taken to the Fed eral penitentiary at Atlanta Ga.. and Miss Goldman to the state peniten tiary at Jefferson City, Mo. Each was sentenced by Federal judge Mayer to the maximum penalty of two years’ imprisonment and to pay a fine of $10,000. In addition to the severe sentence, Miss Goldnia. i and Berkman are lia- ble to be deported. Berkman is not a citizen and Miss Goldman claims citizenship only on her father’s ap plication. The jury deliberated -10 minutes 1 and as they filed into the court room it was expected, if their verdict was against the prisoners, a demonstra tion would be made by many anarch ists present. There w; - no disorder, however, and when Judge Mayer par sed sentence the anarchists appeared to be completely awed. In sentencing the prisoners, Judge Mayer said he regretted they had not put their abilities to better use, since they could have been “highly- influencing elem r.ts in imparting knowledge to the foreigners who came here.” He added the Govern ment "is part of our lives and we are part of its life, and so it shall remain the greatest standard in the world of true democracy.” At Tillamook, Itt the State of Oregon, at the i I om of business on June 29th, 1917.

The New York Sun of June 30 states that the largest consignment of goH in history for shipment to Japan was withdrawn from the suh-treasury June 29. It is understood that about 150,000,000 is scheduled to be ship ped to Japan by September 1. Al ready about $23,000,000 has been sent. The New York Journal of Com merce of June 30 says: "Yesterday's engagements of the precious metal for export make the total for the week $12,550,000. Ap proximately $t0,000,000 of this v-»« transferred to San Francisco for ship ment to Japan.
