SALVATION ARMY GUERNSEY FANS
IS IT DESERVING? PLANNING FOR
CO. EXPOSITION
prizes have been increased
ON STOCK TO FIVE—NEW AR
RANGEMENTS
ARE
MADE ON GROUNDS.
BEING
The purpose of the Salvation
Army can best be -expressed by the
motto of the organization: “The
world for Christ and Christ for the
world,’’ as well as by the charge
given by its founder to go for souls
and go for the worst. Touched by
the awful conditions of the masses
Of darkest England, and later of all
lands, General Booth believed the
salvation of God to be the only pan
acea for existing conditions.
The results accomplished during
the intervening years justify the
claims of the Army that the solu
tion of present and social and Indus
trial evils is to be found in the ap
plication of the principles advocated
by the lowly Nazarene. which is
first, loving God, and second, loving
your neighbor.
The spread and growth of the Sal-
uation Army since its inception in
1865 has been nothing short of mir
aculous. From the lonely figure
standing on Miles End waste in Lon
don, dedicating his life to God and
the saving of mankind, it has spread
to all the corners of the world.
Without previous plans, men and
wpnten touched by the same spirit,
but moving from England to their
parts of the world, continued their
work for “OTHERS” thus planting
the Army’s flag. It was the Shirley
family of London, having settled in
the City of Brotherly Love, who
started the Salvation Army in the
United States, in a deserted chair
factory, and who finally induced
General Booth to send a small party
of his officers to officially open the
work on this side of the Atlantic;
the start of this work on other con
tinents was accomplished in similar
ways.
The Salvation Army operates to
day in 72 countries, and colonies
and preaches the gospel In 42 dif
ferent languages. It works in 11’-
000 different cities and has more
than 18,000 commissioned officers
in its ranks. Truly it can be said
that the sun never sets on the Sal
vation Army.
It should be borne in mind in con
sidering the grov^h of the Salvation
Army that it was accomplished in
the face of much and serious perse
cution. The privilege enjoyed to
day by the Salvation Army, of
preaching on the street corners of
the cities of the world, and doing its
great work among the poor and fal
len was gained only by enduring the
hatred of the mob as well as the
contempt of the so-called respectable
element.
It was nothing new in the early
days to be covered with mud from
head to foot, to be stoned while
marching the streets, or having
every window of their halls and
building smashed by the angry mob.
To be stoned while doing good was
a new experience, and in some in
stances, members of the Army gave
their lives while trying to help the
helpless. To be tn prison and sent
to work on the rock pile was en
joyed by many ot the Salvationists.
In spite of all this opposition and
persecution the Army was able to
advance.
What may not the future hold in
store in the matter of progress with
a generous and sympathetic public
to stand by and assist with money
and time so much needed.
May 18, 19 and 20 have been set
aside as donation days to this wor
thy organization. The Central Com
mittee of Tillamook County, of
which Sheriff Aschim is chairman,
requests that every one contribute
what they can. The money so con
tributed will be used only for wfirk
in the State of Oregon. A com
mittee for every district in the
county has been appointed, and will
call on you. Every one contributing
will be given a receipt and button.
Give whatever you can. help the
Army that helped win the war.
The ninth annual Tillamook fair
will be held on September 12, 13, 14
anil 15th of this year, one day
earlier than the initial date of last
year.
The management hope to
make it the best fair ever held here,
and will bend its energies to that
end, with the cooperation of the pub
lic. Much responsibility will rest
upon the public, as it will have to
furnish the exhibits, and it is hoped
that every one will have something
in stock, farm products, poultry,
culinary or other exhibits. The
achool exhibits will also form an
important part in the display.
An important change this year
will be found in the increase of the
premiums for stock. Where former
ly there were three prizes, this year
there w'll be five, and the first prize
will be increased from $8 to $10;
and so on in the same ratio down
th' list, the fifth premium being $2.
In the awards for young stock the
first prize will be $8, and the fifth
prize $1.
The milking contest has been
eli inated for this year, and the
i ney will be used to increase
other prizes.
In the vegetable and horticultural
di , , tments, a sweepstake prize of
$; will be offered to the person or
in ims taking the most premiums
in hie departments; this means
that if the exhibitor or exhibitors
take
worth of premiums, and
more than other exhibitors, ths win-
i.< will get the $25 plus and addi-
tt aal to the regular premiums
offered, which should be an addi
tional inducement for good-natured
competition.
In the textile department a total
of $100 will be offered for prizes;
$50 for the first prize, $25 for the
second, $15 for the third, and $10
f<
the fourth.
They will be
Ju Iged as to display, quantity, qual
ity, and
as
to
neatness and
at i nngement.
In the floral department, some of
th«' money has been taken from
pi. iliums heretofore offered which
It. 1 tided flowers not widely grown
in this country and this money has
been added to premiums represent
ing flowers of more importance tn
the coast section.
It has been hinted that Fred C.
Baker might take over the matter of
th. business men's concessions, and
it is believed that such arrange
ment with him vfould result in a
creditable display by the local busi-
ness men of their goods and Indus
trie;
The fair will receive added
impetus and importance should the
business men decide to make a
general display, a the one held at
the last fair session was a decided
attraction.
It is understood that there will bo
but one main entrance from the
road to the fair grounds this year,
instead of two. as was the case last
year. The new gate will be near
the center of the enclosure.
The
gate for stock, and for the feed
trucks will be changed so as to di
vert al) such trafle through an open
field direct to the stock sheds, thus
not interfering with the crowds, and
lessening the dust clouds.
It ; also rumored that a pure
bred stock sale will be had at this
year on the last day of the fair, but
th' ha i not been definitely settled.

BAR TUG FROM SEATTLE
EXPECTS SOON IN BAY
The Whitney mills at Garibaldi
Cove will soon be exporting lumber
by water, if reports from that sec
tion do not need confirmation.
It
is learned that a big bar tug is soon
expected to arrive for the use of the
company from Seattle; and it is also
stated by a resident of that city that
steam schooners for lumber carrying
trade will follow in the near future,
and be ready to take cargoes of lum
ber to the southern markets. When
this occurs the bay will take on new
activity, and add interest to life
along the water front of the cove,
and important to shipping interests
of our harbors. It is understood
that the tug will remain here to es
cort the ships in and out of the bar
entrance. Verily, Tillamook bay’s
one time shipping prestige bids fair
to come back, good and strong.

but epout a year ago, came back to
Oregon, and now resides in Salem.
At one time Mr. Mills was in busi
ness in this city, but has not been
here before his recent visit for 11
years, and expressed astonishment at
the growth of the city, which was
a mere village when he came to the
county. Mr. Mills is 75 years of age,

DANIELS' COW
TILLAMOOK
JERSEY
DEMON
STRATES REMARKABLE FEAT
NEVER
BEFORE
EQUALED—
ENTITLED TO GOLD MEDAL.
The senior two-year old Jersey
cow, St. Mawes Pretty Lady, not
content with producing 824 pounds
of butterfat and thereby annexing
the title of champion butterfat cow
of her class in the world, last Wed
nesday dropped a fine bull calf
which entitles her to the further
distinction of being the only cow of
her class in the world to carry a
living calf during her butterfat teBt,
and then successfully drop it.
No
other cow in the world in her class
has ever equalled this feat, and the
owner, Lester Daniels of the Daniels
Jersey Farm of this county, is elated
and justly so.
The butterfat record of St. Mawei
Pretty Lady entitles the winner to a
gold medal, and the American Jer
sey Cattle Club should feel proud
of the record of this little Jersey
cow, away out in Oregon, where nu
tritious grass and equable climate
conspire to make champions.
Jersey breeders all over the
world will soon know of this ad
ditional feat of the Oregon senior
two-year old, and Mr. Daniels is due
for congratulations front various
parts of the world.
The champion's dam, Olga Lad’s
Dewbell, recently finished a yearly
butterfat test of 633 pounds, and
also dropped a fine bull calf, for
good measure. This proves that the
family of Jerseys to which the cham
pion belongs is not only one of fat
producers, but also is one of depend
able and prolific breeders, two qual
ities that make for top-notchere,
and which stamps the family as one
of the best in the world of the breed.

ed until last year in racing homing
pigeons. But he has been too busy
for r. year or more to pay further at
tention to this pastime. ' Wednes
day morning he caught a strange
pigeon on a window sill in the third
story of the court house, which
proved to be a lost carrier bird,
which bore the name of R. T. Gwilyn
Seattle, engraved on an aluminum
band on one leg, and the number
“Seattle 900-21.” on the other leg.
Gwilyn is one of the best known
pigeon racers on the coast, and his
bird, thinks Mr. Coates, was proba
bly on a homing trip from San Fran
cisco, when lost, rnd came here for
food, whlih he states they will do
when weak and hungry. Just why
it oame to the only room occupied
by a pigeon racer in this county is
one of the things that may be cred

the uncanny perception of a bird

Earl A. Merrill, aged about 25

Sheriff
Aschim having recognized Merrill
as an old offender in Portland, and
of unsavory reputation, haled him
before the county judge who had
him examined by Dr. Boles as to his
sanity. The Doctor pronounced Mer

authorities at the Oregon Insane
Asylum were notified to come and
get him. It appears that Merrill
has been in that institution before,
and is a sex pervert.
