OREGON'S INDEBTEDNESS
In a recent summary of Oregon's
Indebtedness compiled by the Secre
tary of the state for the use of the
Taxpayer’s league of Portland, The
total Indebtedness of Oregon Is
shown to be *107,400,593.94.
Of
this large sum, Multnomah’s share
Is placed at *331,337,532. That of
the counties outside of Multnomah
is *82,420,293. Curry county’s debt
is the smallest, and Multnomah’s
the largest. The obligations of the
counties Is shown separately. Strang
as it may appear, this compilation-!*
said to be the first of the kind ever
made and published, and ought to
prove interesting to readers in the
various counties of the state. Tilla
mook's Indebtedness is given as fol
lows:
County indebtedness, *248,700.«

The unsanitary and littered vp
condition of many of the public
camp grounds in Tillamook and at
the beaches, where free Bpace and
conveniences are provided, is a mat
ter that deserves attention. Old pa
pers strewn around, decayed fish,
scattered hay, tin cans, etc., all
tend to disgust those who come af
ter the careless ones. Each person
using the grounds should clean up
the rubbish he has created before he
leaves, and thus show his apprecia
tion of those who have made it pos
sible for him to have a nice place
to camp.

That nearly every home owner
has a nice lot of flowers, and that
the names of the varieties shown
would stump most of the men, and
tickle a botanist half to death?
That Tillamook gets many verbal
bouquets from the visitors on the
above account?
That the average Tillamook house
cat likes to yowl and fight on moon
light nights like other cats? That
some people would throw bootjacks
at them if they had the boot Jacks?

That the fire laddies think that
trash and rubbish near buildings are I
a fire menace, and that owners
ought to clear up such trash with
out being officially notified?
That we saw a man walking up
the street the other day, and the
man stopped to lace his shoe? That
when we arrived in front of the man
we discovered he was a woman?
That our grandmothers would have
fainted dead away at the sight of
their daughters wearing such man

the old hoop skirt must have been

That it pays to advertise? Either
that is so, or some of our most suc

fools in the world? The fellow who
doesn’t advertise nowdays is like
the fisherman who forgets to tie a

results. I’ll say I'm giving you a

That it is reported that a gill
from the vicinity of Four Corners
ehewed gum so fast at the beach the

and couldn't talk for several hours? |
That the family had peace for that'
length of time without

That the wind blows here on af

That the story of a man being
chased by a hoop snake upon the
Kilcbis the other day was all pure
fiction? That ‘‘there are” no such
