That tho nulleVColilo Canal will be completed and ru.ndv for tho pussngc of boats in about another year is ths opin ion of P. C. Schubert, of the United States -Engineers, who has hud charge of tho work. With nearly all of tho Government appropriation available, labor plentiful and weather conditions favorable, the work is being pushed forward faster than over before, and unless tho June rise of the Columbia is unusually great, it is believed that next Pall will see boats passing freely from l'ortlund to points on the. Upper Columbia and Snake rivers.

"DROP IN AND LOOK AROUND" City Council Con siders Franchises Two Lijht and Power Fraccbuei Ailced for. Much Difference of Opinion. Matter may be Put up lo Toten On Monday evening the city council met in regular session with the follow ing members present: Chairman Har rison: Councilman Lench. Knllson j Hales and Dick; Recorder Todd. I Motion was made and carried assess ing property on the north end of 2nd Ave, KhH for street Improvements. The improvement is a stretch of (planking which hsi been laid at a cost I of $111.60, and is assessed to Garret Ward on the east side of the street and to the Mount Vernon Creamery Co. on the west side of the street. On motion a walk is ordered in on the south side of 12lh street from Stillwoll Ave. to 2nd Ave. WcsL Motion made, and carried that assess ment be levied for graveling west of 3ru St., also planking alleys in Block 1 and 2 between Slillwell Ave. and 2nd Ave. Kast. The time set for levying assessments is Nov. 17. After the regular routine business was Iransscted and bills were allowed. The ordinance relative to an electric light and power franchise which Mes srs. Small and Urie are dciirous of securing was taken up for discussion. Th. site has-been secured up the Trask River and the county has granted the company a 30 year franchise, and now a franchise from the city of Tillamook is desired. The council expressed a desire to have ssnt) explanations in regard to tho matter whereupon Attorney E. J. Claussen introduced Mr. Siebicn of San Francisco, who has charge of the promotion of the proposition xa'J rep resents monied men of that eity. Mr. Sicbien stated that the projpects for a i water power plant to furnish light ani ' power for Tillamook City and its fut- , ure needs, looked very good and was i sure to come, but that it would come easier if the people of the city were in sympathy with tho proposition. He dwelt to some extent upon the future prospects of our city and spoke of the prospects of a pulp mill for our town. He contended that water power would be much cheaper than steam power , and would give us a strong leverage in securing manufacturing plants. After Mr. Siebien had completed his talk Councilman Keld.on gave his . views in regard to the matter which , were to the elTect that while he did not want to stand in tho way of prog- j ress nt the samo time he felt that our I present lighting company was giving , us very good service, and as it had haJ many obstacles to overcome in the past, he felt that now when condition. werei'mproving they ought to be allow ed a free field at least for a time longer. Councilman I.ench stated that he had as much sympathy for tho present company as anyone had, but that he thought that if the new company want ed to como in here and uevelopo our re.-uurces and build up the country and give us a cheaper light und power, that it was up to us to take advantage of this endeavor. He said that you can't build up a town unless you allow capi (Continued On Page 4) Tillamook Boy Writes From Orient Joi. Atkinson Writes Letter to Mothe Gives Interesting Account, Aai Some Inside History About Chinese Troubles. U. S. S. Cincinnati, Nanking, China. September 1, 1913. DearMjther:- Justgottwo letters trim you one wrote July 23, and the other August 7. It was the first mail we have gotten for some time. The Chinlts are still fighting here but think it will soon be over. They I have been at it for about three weeks now but haven't done very much shoot , irg, one Bide would fire a few shots ( then quit, but last night fi-y started j in earnest and are still at it. j Several small bullets have bean fal ling on the ship this mjrnin and one fellow was sleeping on the decf and u bullet went through his leg, just above the knee. A large shell passed over our quarterdeck this morning and struck the water clo3e by but didn't hurt anything. Nearly everone had loit inter3t in the fight until l3t night, and this morning everyone is looking for a place where he can see t&e excitement. No one is allowed on the main decks today unless he ha3 wo-k tt do. . One of the sailors on a lar,e German cruiser here was killed this morrjinj, and they moved farther up ths river. We have movei three timas sn; thi fight started and are ju3t above tha firing line now and 'tan see the guns when they fire and see the shells burst. It is like a 4th of July celebration. Though not muih of a celebration for j the rebels. The Japs are helping the rebels all they can secretly and they came near getting themselves into trouble with the Germans. The Jap officers told the rebels that the Germans were fur nishing guns and ammunition for the Northern army so the rebel told too Germans to move or they would fire on them, but the Dutchmen wo.ildi't go but began to investigate and found what the trouble was. Then the Japs wanted to apologize but the Dutchman told them to get otf his ship and make his apologies to the German govern ment. We have been having quite a bit of trouble getting fresh supplies. They all come from Shanghai and most of the meat is spoiled when it gets up here. For over a week we had nothing but beans and canned meat and it sure got tiresome. The Germans got a lot of tomatoes and sent some of them over here last night and they sure were fine We sent a visiting party to the Ger man ships every night for a while, un til some of them came back drunk and that queered the whole thing. All German ships carry beer for their sail ors and it tastes pretty good to Amer ican sailors also but they try to drink too much of it at a time. This is ono place where money is no good, a person can't spend a cent up here. Everything they had in the can teen is sold except a little stationery. I have been taking in washing and have made about thirty dollars in the last ten days but it is a whole lot of work to do it everything is so unhandy, i (Continued on Page 4) On Your Own Account have you any money in the bank?
