"Gym,” WOULD ABOLISH COMMISSIONS A mass meeting was held in the court house last Wednesday night for the discussion of the problems con fronting the taxpayers of Oregon and Tillamook county in particular. About 200 persons were present and many able speakers performed though there was considerable dif ference of opinion between them. Many of those who attended did so because they thought that prob lems of a more local nature were to be taken up, but the main question for discussion was whether or not to attempt to have all state commis sions dissolved. Webster Holmes made a mot o , which was carried, that petitions be drawn up and signed showing that the sentiment of the meeting was in favor of abol- ishing all commissions and repeal- ing all laws creating state commis- sions.

Several pairs of Btrap hinges of this same kind were found tn Hiatt’s house and one pair was broken. Hiatt disclaims any knowledge of how the hingeH came to be in his residence.

Baker) The Chamber of Commerce sent telegrams to the heads of four rail road companies in the Middle West on Saturday relating to the exces sive freight rates on lumber, as fol lows: ’’Owing to unjust, prohibitive rates on lumber, saw mills are closed down, eight hundred men out of em ployment, causing stagnation in all lines of business, also in passenger and freight business on radrci.d. Imperative that rutes prior to last August be restored immediately. L<- conditlons on nccouut of stag nation getting bad. When the railroad rates were rais ed on lumber it killed the goose that laid the golden egg, not only Injur ing the railroads, but caused stagna tion in all kinds of business, and Tillamook, like all other places where lumber mills are situated, Is now suffering and will continue to suffer until the railroads restore the freight rates that prevailed previous to August 20, 1920. • • * The Roosevelt Camp Grounds, which the Chamber of Commerce mu been putting Into park like shape, will be completed this week, with 1 ,e exception of a little grading to lei el that part of the grounds that need leveling. Over 400 trees have been planted, and these have been pro tected from damage by running rows of fences, and the fences all put in good order. The house which the limpet's use lias been painted. All that remains to be done is to put in electric plates for cooking or building a number of dutch ovens to finish up the improvements, with the excep tion of planting some flowers so as to give the grounds a more park like ap pearance, which it is hoped the ladles of the ladies of the city will take in hand. The city needs a clean-up week It 1 h surprising the amount of dirt and rubbish there is in different part of the city, especially around resident property and the back of business houses. No one should be allowed to dump manure around their pro perty and allow it to rot and stink, and those who persist in doing so I1 should be prosecuted. However, hre is need of a general clean up of [the city and every person, who rents I Z» i property, as well as those who own : property,should cast their eyes about I their own places before casting their optics at the dirt and rubbish about I their neighbors places. There is go ing to he a great Influx of visitor* I Into the country this year, and It Is .highly necessary to clean up and that It be kept cleaned up. * • • Every business man should be In terested in the loganberry indu.-try that Is If they are interested In ♦Im business development of Tillamook city and county,for that Is an indu - try that will give the city a good pay roll, something that is greatly neetl- edand must have if the city is to have development and prosperty.
