ORE FIRE MYSTERY
IS THOUGHT SOLVED
t has leaked out that the myster-
B fire in the rear of Honey & Heus-
's store on July 4th had its origin
the careless use of firecrackers,
ich were tossed from a nearby
house window to the roof of
building that caught fire. The
I crackers smouldered on the roof
I finally developed a fire. It is be-
from the meagre admissions of
ie boys that the youngster whose

the blaze by carrying water up

From Tillamook
It is generally conceded that Tilla
mook cheese is popular, and that it is
also in great demand, but the follow
ing story taken from a Seattle paper
dated July 1st, shows that when
cheese burglars come into a store and
seek to carry it away in broad day
light, despite the efforts of the pro
prietor, it’s fame, is broad spread.
Here is the story:
“H. I.. Klock, 55 years old, proprie
tor of a butter and cheese house at
914 Western Ave., about 10:30 o’
clock this morning successfully de
fended himself and a Tillamook
cheese in a battle with two young
men who sought to carry away the
cheese. Although he sustained minor
bruises in the battle, Mr. Klock’s
fighting spirit resulted in the arrest
of V. P. Gill, 24, and R. W. Dally, 22
who were held at the city jail for in
vestigation.
“Mr. Klock was unloading a carload
of cheese he told the officers, when
he saw the young men approach the
car. One of them picked up a cheese
and started to run away, but Mr.
Klock was too quick and sprang at
him. He was knocked down, he told
the police, but he held fast to his as
sailant and they rolled over on the
pavement. Mr. Klock says he was
then attacked by the other young
man and the three were battling fu
riously when Patrolmen J. Yosting
and J. H. Hurt arrived as reinforce-
ments, summoned by Klock’s office
crew.”
NEW SCHOOL BUILDING
TAKING SHAPE FAST
The new school house is assuming
shape, and work is progressing at a
satisfactory rate, say the directors.
The roof is nearly all on, and lathing
and plastering are going ahead at the
present time. The various contract
ors have material on the ground and
as the building progresses, the electri
cal and heating appliances will fol
low without loss of time. Then will
come the seating and other fixtures
and before it is realized the new
building will be ready for the child
ren and the instructors. It is be
lieved that the building will be ready
in ample time for the fall term.
STOLEN AUTOMOBILE
IS FOUND AT BEACH
During the Presidential reception
in Portland the other day Dr. Bow
man, a well known physician of that
city left his Crow-Elkhart auto stand
ing in front of a business house, and
when he returned a moment later,
the machine was gone. Friday last
the sheriff of this county found the
machine where it had been abandon
ed at Rockaway beach. Two young
men were seen to get out of the car
at the beach and walk away. The
owner of the car was notified and
came in and got his property Satur
day.

NEW WATER MAIN PIPE
FISH AND GAME CLUB
TO HOLD MEETING IS FAST BEING LAID
Supt. E. I). Hoag of the Tillamook
Water commission has begun laying
the new pipe from the intake down
the line a distance of about one and a
half miles. Part of the new pipe has
been delivered and the remainder is
coming along from Portland. Bad,
muddy conditions have retarded the
work considerably of late due to the
heavy rains, but with some dry w<-nth
er to help, the work will soon be done.
It is thought the force will be able to
lay from 300 to 400 feet of pipe per
day.

Of Southern Oregon To Help

Spirit
The "Boost for Oregon” caravan
will leave Portland July 16th for a
trip over :he Pacific highway, Rose-
burg-Coos Bay highway, into Marsh-
field with a side trip to the Oregon
caves. The Oregon State Motor as
sociation in u letter to Rollie Watson
asks him to take up the matter with
Tillamook civic clubs and have them
enter one or more cars representing
Tillamook county. Cars should bear
banners setting forth the resou ices
of their county. “It is believed.”
states the letter, “that the result of
the trip will be to create a much
needed “Boost for Oregon" spirit, and
that it will give the boosters a
chance to do some good work for the
Roosevelt highway."
Mr. Watson
wants to know why the beach pro
prietors and other interests cannot
take advantage of this caravan trip to
advertise Tillamook county ami ita
varied resources, Mr. Watson will
join the caravan himself, but
he
wants others to show thv same public
spirit, and co-operate with hint in the
matter. Here is a chance to do some
good work for our beaches and in
duce tourists of the state and else
where to come over here and see our
country, Ix't's enlarge the Tillamook
spirit.

CYRUS RANDALL
IS GORED BY BULL
Infantry Will Give Attack
Demonstration During
Week Of Fair
NOW TIME TO PREPARE
Money Not Available For Completion
Of New Fair Grounds Purchased
Some Time Ago
Secretary Pine states that the out
look for a good fair was never better.
There is every indication that the
stock exhibit will be fully up to that
of previous fairs, and it is hoped that
it will be larger and lietter. Five mo
tion pictures will be given on three
nights of the fair week, and some
thing new will be the attack demon
stration by infantry units of company
K, O. N. G. This will be worth see
ing and will give the onlookers an
idea of modern military in action.
The business men of the county
have been rather slow in making rea-
ervations for business exhibits. Thia
is a big atlruction to most people, and
it is sincerely hoped by the manage
ment that the business men will be
thoroughly represented at this sua
sion of the fair. This is the time to
begin to get ready, and the publie
should assist in this way to make the
fair a success. The fair belongs to
Tillamook county and a« usual there
will be a large number of .trnngera
here, who naturally will want tn see
an exhibit by the leading busitosa
men of the county S. s . ih I people
have lately inquired when th.' new
fait grounds would be <><•< upimi. The
county now owns 100 acres a short
distance from the present grounds,
and it is paid for, but there is no
money in the county coffer available
fur the expense of new buildings, and
that is the reason.
Before these
grounds can be used, there muat be
n fund for the above purpose and
about the only way to get it, is to
levy a tax for the purpose and that
will be tip to the people. The pres
ent grounds are leased from year to
year from the Southern Pacific com-
l>any and an order from that Com
pany to vacate would have to Ire o hey-
ed at the end of any contract year.
