Aï SLAUGHTFR
OWNERS OF NETARTS PROPER-
TY HOPE TO STOP KILLING OF
ANIMALS AT SEAL ROCKS—
CARCASSES STREW BEACH.
As a protest against the action of
elate hunters destroying the sealions
at what is known as Seal rock off
Maxwell point at Netarts, Rosen­
berg Brothers of this place have ad­
dressed a communication to the Gov­
ernor asking that this practice be
stopped.
It seems that the state pays pro­
fessional hunters to kill the seals
and collect bounty on the scalps.
This is done with the idea that the
seals destroy salmon, but it is said
that the hunters do not stop with
the seal but also kill sealions. -It is
maintaned by some of the best
authorities that the sealions do not
destroy salmon.
The letters addressed to the state
executive is in part as follows: A
few days ago, only, a crew stopped
at these rocks and all day long fired
upon them and succeeded in killing
quite a number of the sea lions
The result has been that the beach
is now strewn with their dead
bodies, Owing to their size, it is
impossible to bury them, and there
is no way of consuming the car-
cases, so as ,to prevent them from
becoming putrid and contaminating
the atmosphere so that it is almost
unbearable for anyone to remain in
Thia ofcourse is a
the vicinity,
menace to the health of the people
staying at this resort antT will 'drive
all of ,them away and keep them
away within a distance of a good
many miles of beacn. These dead
sea lions have been scalped, pre­
sumably so that the killers can ac­
quire the bounty on the same.”
BIG
ELECTION LAWS
DISREGARDED
Judging from the results of the
recent plmary election, a more thor­
ough education in lection laws must
be laid before the different boards
and voters.
x
While checking over the records
of the boards of the Tillamook coun­
ty precincts, it was foutid that a
large percentage of the registration
cards that were made out election
day at the polls were not made out
properly, also that some of the wit-
cesses secured by voters desiring to
register on election day were not
freeholders, that is, that these wit­
nesses do not own property within
the county. It has been ruled that
swearing falsely on registration con.
stltutes a perjury and that it is pun­
ishable by law. It is also quite possi­
ble to throw out such votes as have
been cast by false registration.
All this has led county authorities
to believe that a campaign of educa­
tion along the line of the election
laws would be a good thing from the
voters point of view, ’and predict
that such a campaign may be un­
dertaken before the fall election.

ANNOUNCED FOR SUMMER
«
- ----
One of the many inovations which
is particularly pleasing to the little
folks, when Howe's Great London
Circus comes to Tillamook, on Mon­
day, June 12, will be the spectacle
“Cinderella in Jungleland.”
inaugurating a program made up
of outstanding features, it really
pertains to the theatrical, rather
than the circus world. An army of
people and countless animals take
part in a gorgeous musical fantasy,
woven into the story of the slipper,
dear to the childish heart. There
will be clowns an army of them,
ponies, dogs, goats, beautiful speci­
mens of horse intelligence, a troupe
of trained camels, all working in
three rings. The steel arenas will
be tilled with thrilling wild animal
exhibitions, all for one ticket.
A parade will be on the streets
Monday morning and two perform­
ances will be given, at 2 and 8 p. m.
The water commission has an­
nounced the time for sprinkling
during the summer months as fol­
lows: East of 2nd avenue, Mon­
days, Wednesdays and Fridays; west
of 2nd avenue, Tuesdays, Thnrsdays
and Saturdays. The hours are from
5 to 9 p. m.
