Brings Bacon In Shape Of Headlight Coaster Wagon A young man, dressed in loggers clothes went into Pennington's store on Friday the 13th. He had a check which purported to have been signed by one Ralph Jennings in favor uf Ray Greyson. Greyson stated that he wanted some articles and would like the balance in cash Mr. Pen­ nington liecame suspicious and started to call up to inquire whether he bunk upon which the check was drawn had any such depositor when the fellow reached for the check saying that he would take it over to the hank. A moment later he came buck suying that the bank was closed. Mr. Pen­ nington then cashed the check und the man left. A few moments later Mr. Pennington did call up the bank and found that his first suspiciou was cor­ rect—that no one by the name of Jen­ nings had funds in the bank. Mr. Pennington immediately sought Sher­ iff Aschim and they began a search for the forger. Sheriff Aschim saw a man well dressed, carrying a grip walking toward the stage station. He asked: "Is that your man?” A second look convinced Mr. Pennmgton that despite his change in ruiment. it was Greyson. His arrest followed. In the meantime Greyson, after getting the check cashed, had hurried to a be­ tel and changed into a natty suit, and was seeking to make a rapid get away He told the sheriff that he worked the week previous in a hay field near Hemlock and that they had stacked the hay. The sheriff then told the man that then- was no hay cut that week on account of rain and that far­ mers did not stack hay in this county. Thus ended the fairy tale. Greyson is behind the bars. In the meantime the sheriff is looking over the "Ro­ gue's gallery” with the belief that Greyson is an old offender of some sort. It has later developed that Gray­ son cashed two more cheeks in town before he went to Pennington's store. MARSHALL, PAROLED, IS CAUGHT UP AGAIN WOLE VIOLATOR NABBED BY SHERIFF MOHLER COUNTRY SEEMS PROSPEROUS In Tillamook PORT MATTERS DISCUST Solons Seemed Inelined To Favor C ounty Port Improvements H hen Approached Tillamook was visited by two Unil- ed States Senators Thursday, Com- posing the party was Senators Chas. McNary and R. N. Sunfield the lat­ ter’s secretary E. J. Adams and Jack Guyton of Coos Bay who represents the Portland dailies. The party ar­ rived from Garibaldi at 11:30 and took lunch at the Louvre. After lun­ cheon the party was taken out by Carl Haberlach and others to visit the cheese factories and dairy farms in the country adjacent. At 6:30 the Ki wants club is entertaining the distin­ guished visitors at a dinner given at the Tillamook hotel. At Garibaldi the senators looked over the channel and it is understood that they will favor an appropriation for the deepening of the channel at Garibaldi by the removal of the shoals at that place. They also stated that the bay had spent 6265,000 which should be matched by a like appropri­ ation from the government. At Nehalem the people asked the delegation for an appropriation to dredge Nehalem bar, and suggested that a government dredger be provid­ ed for the bays along the up|>er Ore­ gon coast, all of which it is said sound ed reasonable to the senators. The Senatorial party was tnedered a formal dinner at the Tillamook ho­ tel last night und left early this morn ing for Sheridan nad other valley points.

GIRL FORGER CAUGHT HERE BY SHERIFF luist Saturday Hazel Rausch, a dashing young woman of 17. wearing a fetching Gainsborough hat and a showy summer frock of latest design alighted from the Portland stage in this city about 1 p. m. last Saturday. She was on her way to Rockaway to spend a couple of weeks. She had no idea that a reception would l>e given her upon her arrival here, but such was the case. Sheriff Aschim met her with a warrant for her arrest on a charge of forgery. It seems that Ha­ zel had cashed two no-good chocks on Hillsboro merchants the day before totaling 6195 and had then started over to the beach to listen to the sad waves of the ocean. At something of 8 p. m. Miss Rausch was speeding hack to Hillsboro accompanied by a handsome deputy sheriff with a shat­ tered dream of coast conquests. She confessed to an officer here that she "didn’t know why she did it.” While the sheriff at Hillsboro was phoning to the sheriff of Tillamook, he receiv­ ed a wire from the sheriff of Des Chutes county at Bend asking him to arrest Hazel for forgery committed in that place where her husband works in a logging camp. The girl was married when 15 and is now but 17. She is pretty and had four hats with her, including the one on her head and she told a deputy sheriff here, that she had as many dresses in her two suit cases. On Right Of Way R R. TO MOVE TRACKS Beach Resorts Will Profit By Open- ing Of Lung-Sought Brighton- Manhattan Road It tiegins to look good for the com­ pletion of the mile gap between Bri­ ghton and Jetty creek on the Roose­ velt highway between Tillamook and Wheeler along the beach. It is under­ stood that the state highway commis­ sion and the Southern Pacific com­ pany have at last come to terms which will enuble the highway people and the county court of this county soon to begin operations. The tracks of the Southern Pacific hug the bluffs this side of Brighton and there is no present room for the highway around the cliffs. The highway people have proposed that the railway company move its tracks from the mills at Brighton southward for about a quar­ ter of a mile, which will straighten its tracks just that much. This done, the highway commission can cut down the bluff enough to muke room for a standard roadbed and thus get by with the road. Once this remaining stretch of road is completed, travel over the Miami route will no longer be necessary and tourists can take the level route,Where they will be all the way in sight of the ocean. This will mean much to the beach resorts which in the past have been bottled up by the uncompleted gap in the road from this place to Wheeler, where the road connects with the Astoria-Seaside highway. ll HORNET” LEAVES WITH 600,000 FEET The carrier Hornet arrived in Gar­ ibaldi at 10 a. m. last Friday and load ed 000,000 feet of lumber from the Whitney company’s yards.

McNary And Robert 8 Years Old. EDITORS’ MEETING Head Of Fish And Game Commission Is Present The State Editorial association which met at Hood River this week in its closing hours voted to hold the next session of the association in Till­ amook. By the time they arrive next year the big armory auditorium should be ready to receive them. The coming of the association means that at least 200 newspapermen and the families of the married members will be present sometime in July 1924. Till amook has ample chances for the en­ tertainment of such a body of visitors outside of its own resources. The beaches will be a great attraction, which the average editor and his fam­ ily will appreciate. In addition to the editorial association we are to be host to the Elks grand lodge which meets here sometime in the early summer and a couple thousand people will doubtless be present on that occa­ sion. The grand lodge of the Knights of Pythias meets in Portland in Octo­ ber this year and there is a chance that the grand lodge of that order for next year may be brought to Tilla­ mook also. Tillamook will later be the home of the two grand masters of the Odd Fellows and K. P. lodges. C. W. Barrick will be chosen as head of the Pythian grand lodge sometime next October. So in any event, Till­ amook is due to get some beneficial advertising next year. JUDGE NAILS THE LIE PASSED BY WOBBLIES Quite frequently in I. W. W. pub­ lications agitating the release of the Centralia murderers one will find the assertion that the judge who presided at the trial has since declared that he is convinced that there has been a miscarriage of justice. This can best I be answered by the following quota­ tion from a ietteer received by the Legion from Judge John M. Wilson of the Superior Court of Thursten county, Washington; “About a year ago I received a com­ munication f’om Elmer Smith who was one of the defendants, enclosing a resolution passed by some Seattle organisation and requesting me to use my influence toward the release of these defendants from the peniten­ tiary. This, of course, I ignored. 1 have paid little attention to the mat­ ter and it is needless to say I have made no statement that I believed jus tice had miscarried. At the time of the trial I was fully satisfied of the guilt of these defendants and have had no reason at any time since to change my mind.” On the Concrete MODEL HATCHERY TO BE FAIR EXHIBIT T. R. Pollock, superintendent of the Gold creek hatchery at the suggestion of W. D Pine, secretary of the Till­ amook county fair, has consented to exhibit a miniature fish hatchery at the fair and will explain hatchery work at that time. This should prove to be quite an attraction io those who have never seen anything of the kind a.id uch people are numerous. Fish will be shown in all stages of develop­ ment. Gathering At PROTECT FISH, IS PLEA Various Phases Concerning Club Are Discussed During Course Of Meeting The Tillamook Fish and Game club had a rousing meeting last Monday night at the city hall. In addition to the club there were a number of in­ vited guests present, The meeting was called to order by the president, Henry Crenshaw, with secretary W. C. Foster at his post, The president stated that the object of the meeting was to instill new life in the club and put it upon an active working basis. The president then introduced A. E. Burgdoff, head of the state Fish and Game commission. With him were M. L. Whitman, superintendent of state hatcheries and T. R. Pollock of the local hatchery. Mr. Burgdoff pre­ faced his talk with a story to illus- rate his assertion that he was not an entertaining speaker. But he made a very interesting talk notwithstand­ ing, and gave a great many sidelights as to the habits and genealogy of fish that was instructive to many per­ sons present. He said that in pioneer days the pioneers killed only what they needed of game for food and fished for the same purpose, so that wild life did not suffer. Thei-e was then no call for protection of fish and game. As pop­ ulation and good roads and automo­ biles increased, protection had become n< ,-ssary. He was concerned with the fish aspect of today. Owing to flood conditions and the destructive movement of silt in the rivers follow­ ing a flood, only -bout 2 pe- cer.t of the saimon and trout eggs are hatched naturally. Artificial hatching had therefore become a necessity, owing to the great number of people who fish for trout ana salmon. If left to their natural methods the fish would soon be gone. By artificial work at the hatcheries about 80 per cent of the eggs spawned artificially are hatched and about 75 per cent are saved for liberation in the coastal .*.-1 reams. All fish that go up stream to spawn should be protected. Speaking of the state hatchery at Gold creek, the only one in the county he said that it was placed under the management of the state game and fish commission until tb erable ; -operty in I’ Cpv h. of­ env " ‘he whole half block purc hased. fered to donate 49 acres of tide and Wotkmen have » . has .
