Owners Of Tide Washed Lands
Getting Listless Regarding
Proposed Sea Wall.
REPLIES SLOW COMING IN
Committee Is Anxious to Finish
Up the Work But Nothing
Can Be Done If Assist
ance Is Not Gained.

The committee of ten is not meet
Ing with as earnest cooperation on
the part of interested owners of tide
washed lands along the water front as
will be necessary for harmonious un-
derstanding Of the project in hand.
Many replies have been received from
those addressed on the subject, but at
tention is not as prompt as desired.
This committee was appointed for the
purpose of ascertaining the sentiment
regarding the construction of the sea
wall, filing with dredgings from the
river channel and sluicing from the
hills. The committe was appointed
to do something. and do something 1t
win, If property owners wake up TO
the realization of their responsibility
and lend their assistance to the great
undertaking. Otherwise nothing will
be accomplished. The facts are plain |
and should be squarely faced. This
much was expressed yesterday by
prominent member of the committee,
who added
Positions on this committee were
not sought and the members thereof
do not feel 1t their duty to get down :
The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1904-03-13

the contrary declared that they had
been robbed by Ilwaco thieves,
THE third grievance was at the
hands Of the Ilwaco storekeepers. whom
they allege, charged them two prices
for goods which they purchased, The
sailors paid the price asked, but again
spread broadcast the story that they
had been robbed. ana that Ilwaeo was
the proper place 10 pay two prices for
merchandise"
Captain Keegan seems TO be as dear
ly loved by the members OF HIS crew
as he Is by the residents of flwaco
They believed that the wreck Of the
schooner was directly due 10 his mis-
management and say so without hesl-
tation, The hatches they say. were
not properly placed, so that the sehoon-
er filled rapidly: that the captain at
first was indifferent TO the danger
which confronted his vessel. and lent
little or no assistance to avert a
that those under him were
certain would soon overwhelm them
For the second mate the sailors have
kind words, but are very severe when
the names Of the captain and first
mate are mentioned.
From the captain down they seem
% be an unpleasant lot OF fellows. and
he people of Ilwaeo and North beach,
whose hospitality has been so un-
received. will be relieved
when they see the last OF them.

on their knees to the Individual prop
erty owners and beg reply. All thai
the circular letter asks is to answer
yes or no. adding anything desired
would say to the property owners;
Express yourself as freely as you like
but do Il In black and white that the
replies may be used as reference The
committee can not remember every
thing said on the subject, and IL this
was attempted somebody would be
misrepresented when final report is
made to the public,
Nobody knows the complexion OF
the committee. They may all be for
or against or divided on the proposi-
ton. so 1t is safe to suppose that all
will receive due and
fair consideration, The personnel Of
the committee is sufficient guarantee
FOR fair treatment, no matter which
side of the question the members may
.ake individually.
This is work which should be
inished up at an early day and the
committee is anxious to do it. so II the
property owners OF the district will
ret a move on It can be done. quite
/ number Of replies have been re-
eived from nonresident owners. so
here is really no excuse for delay by
ur resident owners"

THEY NEVER GET NEXT"
Snipe Hunting, Like hatrimony, First
 Has To Be Tried.

Harry Michigan, a young man that came here from Philadelphia a few months ago, last night had conferGei upon him by a number of his asso- ciates the degree of snipe hunter and he is now entitled to consideration by all true sportsmen
 The ceremonials took place as usual near the crosscut canal, about five miles east of town, in the most Ione y and desolate spot that could be se- lected. That was very necessary, of course. and the logic of it at once ap- pealed to Harry, for surely when the rest of the boys rounded up the sn,pe they would run for the most cut of the way place possible.
 When the snipe hunt was suggested to Harry he became enthusiastic at once e. The procedure seemed odd to him and he knew they did not hunt snipe that way in Philadelphia, but he VIZ nted to find out fully the ways of the west. Bs- fore he left the city it was arranged that he should be given the honorary position at the bag and have the cre1- it of getting the birds, while the rest of the boys obligingly offered to do the rounding up. He was told that as fast as a bird ran into the sack, to catch it with his hands and ring it's neck.
Arizona republican., 1904-06-03

He said it would depend upon the looks of the fowl. He had never seen enc and if t looked very ferocious he would jump on it first. He also took along a shotgun with a good supply what he designated SX12 cartridges, being No. F cartridges loaded with No. s shot. He said that if he hadn't the nerve tC wiring the necks of the birds he could stand off and shoot at the sack.
 Harry was left alone, intoxicated with delight and his heart swelling with an- ticipation, at 6 o'clock last night. Whel' he gets in this morning his feet will be swelling from walking and if he Is in- toXicated at all it will be the effect of the water in the crosscut canal. Before he left he told the boys he had ar ranged with local restaurateur t1 cook the snipe he expected to catch and they would all have a midnight ban quet
 Ia was just five minutes past 10 when Harry's associates came to The RePub- lican office and told this story. Trey went home without waiting for the banquet.

the store were anything but flatter.ng, for there were very few people in that section 10 buy things at any price. Still the store was kept up. for Mr McKe has always had an abiding faith in that section and has never doubted for a minute that its day was coming. He will now replace his Kelvin station with real store. with everything in t one could expect to find and q let of things perhaps that one would not eX- pect to find at so remote a place.
 The advent of the Phoenix & Eastern railroad has put new life into that sec tion. The prospectors are coming back to do their assessment work and re- locate other claims and every day CT two a yellow legged mine expert strays into those parts looking for good things and they are not hard to find. A W II stocked store at Kelvin will do more than anything else except the Iail oad toward the development of the mining business. Instead of figuring on fire ght wagons and pack trains, the prospectcr and investor can secure his supplies right on the ground, cheaper even than he could ship them in by rail in small lots

A KELVIN ENTERPRISE
CIV. Mckee Opening up We'll Stock.
 ed Store.

There is in process of organization a mercantile enterprise whose field of ac- tivity will be Kelvin, Final couRty, and the surrounding mining camps It is proposed to esta blish a store at Kelvin and place goods in the hands of the consumer at the lowest possible prices, tn fact, at prices that would not have been possible previous to the advent of the Phoenix & Eastern railroad.
 II is proposed to ship in all staples in IarliOd lots and the first carload of mixed merchandise was sent there from Phoenix yesterday. It will be unloaded at the end of the track, which is now within four miles of Kelvin, and taken ale rest of the way by wagon. It is proposed to send lumber hay, grain, flour. potatoes, canned goods, blasting powder and all heavy merchandise in carload lots and such goods can be laid down nearly as cheap as at any terri torial point. At the highest, the freight cost will be much cheaper than the for tner wagon haul or even local freight rate. In addition a stock of all needed supplies in a general store will be kept up, so the people of that vicinity may |. Eecure all the necessities and many of She luXuries of life at a minimum of expense.
 This enterprise is the development of thc little store C. w. Mckee has main- tained at Kelvin for some years. He first established it when the Ray mine was in operation and when Kelvin be- came a place on the map. During the succeeding years when the mining in dustry thereabout Jagged, the profits of
