To the newspapers of Oregon is
due more than to any other one factor
the success obtained by the Liberty
Loan campaign in Oregon.
We anticipate, before another crop
of evergreen blackberries are ready
for market, some enterprising citizen
will start a fruit cannery here, not
only to take care of the blackberries
but other fruits and vegetables.
------ o------
We are inclined to think that Mr.
Hoover is overestimated, and that he
has tackled a bigger job than he is
able to manage. Citizens will have
more confidence in him if he can con
trol the food speculators, for that is
where the rub comes and is costing so
much money to keep body and soul
together, while a whole lot of people
are getting rich raising the price of
everything.

There seems to be a disposition on
the part of fishermen to violate the
fish laws
in Tillamook County.
Whether this is because they have
been allowed to do so in the past, or
that the increase in the price of fish
is «. "reater temptation to violate the
law, we are inclined to think have
something to do with it, the author
ities aic going to compel compliance
to the law in the future. This is per
fectly right and proper and it is just
as well for the fishermen to make up
their minds that they are going to be
watched most carefully, and when
they do violate the law it is going to
cost them money. The best thing they
can do is to strictly observe the law.
------ o------
In arranging the quotas for the re
cent Liberty Loan drive for counties
and cities,
when making another
drive a different system should be ad
opted. For illustration, one of the
quotas placed Tillamook City at $80,-
000 and Tillamook County at $99,000.
The $107,550.00 raised by the two
banks of this city was largely sub
scribed by persons living outside the
city limits, so it is unfair for the city
to take all the credit. Some few towns
when the drive was on, obtained a
good deal of newspaper notoriety,
which they were not entitled to, for
the people in the surrounding country
helped to swell the amounts, and for
that reason the people in the vicinity
of Tillamook City are entitled to
credit for helping swell this city’s
quota.

If Europe hadn’t had a war the

have been a matter of history.
