Three life insurance companies j
which held policies Lggregatlng more I
than $100,000 on the life of Jesse B
Remick, sawmill operator, who w us :
found dead in bed ai his home In this
citj, April 7, last, ha\e effected a
settlement ol all comestible insur-
rance witit heir.- of the deceased, ac­
cording to Roger Mac Velgh, former |
attorney for Mr. Remick. who say., I
he has been authorituvely Informed
of the settlement by officials of the
insurance companies. It was said
■
estate hud been paid approximately
$100,000 ill full settlement.
I Included in nearly ¿l.OOu.OOO in life
insurance held by Mr. Remick was
something over $100,000 which had
been taken out less than a year before
he died. In case of suicide the compan­
ies would not have been required to
pay this insurance.
The coroner’s jury returned a' sui­
cide verdict, but the family has al­
ways maintained that his demise was
accidental. A quantity of cyanide of
potasium was found at Mr. Remick’s
bedside at the lime of his death. Mem­
bers of the family have always insist­
ed he took the poison in mistake for
medicine, and in settling the contes­
table insurance, it Is understood the
insurance concerns, after complete in­
vestigation, have accepted this theory

To the Editor:
Do Tillamook people realize all
that Bayocean may mean to them?
Destined, on its wonderful natural
attractions alone, to become one of
the greatest resorts in the north-
I west, Tillamook residents need only
aid in getting the road between
- these points finished to add good
business and publicity to their assets.
The world lias heard of Tillamook
cheese, cream and butter. Visitors at
Buyocean always visit this famous
I
town and yet so often, even as I :
came away disappointed that they
found no place to feast on the famous |
cheese, milk and butter. Has no en- ,
terprising Tillamook merchant ever I
thought of a dairy lunch? When I |
think of Tillamook I dream of a '
place where thick cream might be I
enjoyed and cheese served invitingly. !
I am sure a fortune awaits the cue
who opens such a place when the
road is finished between Bayocean
and Tillamook.
Bayocean, to me, is a spot of won­
derful natural attractions and an in- ¡'
spiration. as well.

All new business taken on and after July 29th will be

month of August will be rendered at the new rates.
A toll charge will be made for calls between Tilla­
mook and Bay City commencing July 29th.
1 he incrorsed rates will yield an annual revenue up­
wards of $250,000,00. but as the increase in wages is up­
wards of $225,000.00, the net return to the Company un­
der the rates now made effective is approximately 21/,
per cent on the valuation of its property at $13,464,000.00“
as found by the Public Service Commission.
The new schedule of rates is identical with the one
approved by the Postmaster General for the State of
Washington, which has been in effect since March 1,1919,
and the rates are the same for exchanges that are compar­
able.
We believe that no proof as to the advanced cost of
living and the general high costs prevailing for labor and
materials is necessary and that the telephone-using public
will accept this increase in rates in the same spirit of fair­
ness and consideration as it has the advances in almost
every other necessity in these unusual times.
