One Of Daytona's browning gIo-
ries is her Incompatible beach. No
one who ever set foot upon its
smooth, packed sands; no one who
ever pedaled bicycle over its ex-
panse; no one who ever drove a
prancing pair OF horses and listen
ed to the popping OF their steel shoes
upon its asphaltum-like face; no one
who ever steered a high-power au-
tomobile down the broad stretch of
wave-wasbed and suTf-packed sand
but realized that it is a wOrId-beat-
CT, a world-wOnder. Go stand upon
this wide speedway and see the hap

winged sea birds, which sit about as

upward with his laundering load he
snatched from the water.

Surprising Beauty Of Our Cottage
Homes

No one OF Daytona's attractions,
Lerhaps, commands more nearly uni
versal attention and praise than does
the artistic cottages The owners OF
these charming vilIcs hail from every
corner Of the country and they bring
their own architectural plans and
build upon them. and, as the archi-
lecture Of one section Of the country
differs from the architecture Of anoth-
Ct, so do our homes differ in outward
appearance and structural beauty fror
one another. There are no mouoto-
nous rows Of strikingly similar build
ings but the eye, as it sweeps By, is
treated 10 kaleidoscope change
which keeps the mind wondering,

Big Lumber Industry.
The Tillamook Lumber Industry
is, strange to say it, only in its
infancy One mill in the town cuts
$4,000 feet a day, and has planers
and dry kilns. The Tillamook Lum-
Der Manufacturing Co. cuts fir,
spruce and hemlock, makes all
kinds of building material, makes
, boxes and fruit packers, and sells all
its product around the bay. Geo.
B. Lamb is manager, and w. B.
Alderman is superintendent. There
are the Long sawmills in the city
and on the Tillamook river. Many
sawmills are operated in the county
and lumber and building materials
are cheap. There is an opening here
with the railroads and ocean ship
ping coming in for million dollar
lumber plant at Tillamook and it is
not far into the future when such o
plant will be here.
Has Good Roads.
Driving over Tillamook county,
the homeseeker is impressed with
the fact that here is a county that
has done a great deal to establish a
record for good roads and bridges
1t is a fact that here are more
miles of plank road, good gravel
road, good mountain road, and some
good crushed rock road-than one
finds in the older Willamette valley
counties. The county is very large.
The distances are immense. The
timber is heavy. Labor Of men and
teams is scarce. The road system is
imperfect Contract built roads,
like contract built bridges, let to the
lowest responsible bidder who con-
tracts to build according to plans
and specifications within a specified
time and furnishes his own men and
machinery-are still a desideratum
as yet unapproximated-if we know
what that means.
Good Roads Booster.
Tillamook county has a good roads
booster in the person of Rollie w.
Watson, the real estate pusher,
townsite promoter and motorcar en-
thusiast. 1t is impossible to imagine
what a town like Tillamook would
be without an emissary like Watson
to go out into the world and tell of
its peerless merits and future pros
poets, He is an awakener at home
aud abroad and his whirlwind cam
paigns have done much to advertise
Tillamook county and enlist invest
ments in timber lands, dairy
ranches, and town property. Wat

ers and his hospitality to the out

of the pioneer merchants of the
Tillamook country.
Chas. 1. Clough has built up the
largest drug business on the Bay.
He is interested in other enterprises,
and can be classed as one of the
county. He is one of the men who
is always ready to take hold and
make things go for the benefit of
the community and Tillamook has
no stauncher backer than Charley
Clough.
BILLY" Stephens is one of the
live wires and general hustlers for
the development of Tillamook and
the state of Oregon. He is one of
the best known men in that city and
progressive boosters of Tillamook
Oregonians far and near know Billy
Stephens. There is not a travelling
man goes into the Tillamook coun-
try who does not visit his cigar store
and soft drink parlor, and goes away
saying good things for the
proprietor.
Two TillamoOk Railroads.
The United Railroads, the Hill
line, is building into Tillamook as
fast as men and money will con-
struct. 1t will extend on via Bay
City around the north beaches to
Astoria and thus corrall the sum-
mer resort business on this coast.
The Pacific Railway and Navigation
Company, the Hartman line, is
rushing its line through from near
Forest Grove, is shipping in it's
rolling stock and will soon be oper-
ating to Vosburg east from Tilla-
nook. The coming of two railroads
in to this section of Oregon is send
ing up values of land and business
opportunities are offering here in
every line. This country is destined
to have a great in-rush of people.
Good Steamer Service.
This city has good service for
freight and PASSENGERS by water
The steamer Elmore, Capt. Paul
Schrader, the steamer Oshkosh,
Capt. T. Latham, the steamer Golden
Gate, Capt. Branstetter, are making
regular trips between Portland and
Tillamook. These boats ensure low
rates for transportation of neces-
saries Of life.
The Cheese Industry.
There are about thirty cheese
factories in Tillamook county. and
the report of Secretary Carl Haber-
lach shows 2,5O6,6l2 pounds of
cheese sold by him in 1903, 28,4OG.-
pounds milk used; cash received
SSS6,1S5. The cheese is shipped to
Portland, Tacoma, and Los Angeles

country seven years in the navy as
a seaman, was, shot through the
hand at the battle of Manila Bay,
while serving as gunner's mate, was

general real estate business,
boosts good roads, and has organized
a syndicate to build a model and
ideal summer resort at Neskowin--
the old Salem camp ground. One

country-if you can believe any real

Much About TillamOOk.
But the real center of all the in
terest in this great harbor and its
untold and unreliable wealth of re-
sources in dairying and timber-the
center of the wealth and enterprise
that are making this country rich
and great, is at the capital and
metropolis of the county-Tillamook
City, where the rivers enter the Bay,
and where the influences radiate TO
the rest of the world.
TiIlamook Commercial Club.
That is the meaning of the new
Commercial club of about 125 men,
bers, with it's home in a fine new
block of pressed brick, furnished as
elegantly as any in the state, that
gave a banquet where every guest
was served with a mountain trout,
and where the choicest fruits were
served that are grown within block
of the clambeds.
The President of the Commercial
Club and toastmaster of the evening
was Webster Holmes. He has held
this position for two years and is
ably seconded by Erwin Harrison,
secretary. Holmes is an old Salem
boy and has for a partner T. B.
Handley, Jr., son of another pioneer
lawyer and newspaper man, who was
once a partner of Thos. Tongue, the
congressman. 1t is a pleasure TO
know that man like Webster
Holmes can go into a new country
like this, where a fringe of cities and
summer resorts are building up
around a great harbor, and secure
investments that are making him
rich, build up fine law practice
and become one of the makers of
greater Oregon. That is what
Holmes has done and what any
brainy young man can do in Tilla-
nook.
Club Has Fine Quarters.
The Commercial club has fine
large rooms on the second floor of
the Tillamook block. The furniture
cost $4,000. There is a business Of
flee, reading room, directors room,
billiard room and large banquet and
assembly hall. The club has some

Great Department Store.
For twenty-five miles before you
reach Tillamook from any direction
but the west you are made aware of
the great department store known
as Haltom's, which has been cou-
Quoted for the past eight years by
E. T. Haltom. The new store is in
a fine concrete building built for the
proprietor, about 100 feet square,
and two stories, costing $4,000.
The stock easily reaches $4,000.
There are the most up-to-now cash
carriers, and eight people selling
goods in the new store that was
taken possession of January 1, 1910.
Mr.. Haltom is one of the prime
movers for a greater Tillamook, and
one of the executive committee of
the Tillamook Commercial club as
well as one of it's organizers. He
sets aside a certain sum for boost
ing the town just as he does for
religion, and is one of those men
who believe they are doing Gods
work in building up the community,
and they are the kind of men who
are making Oregon greater and

Cotton Probe
Will Go Deep
Grand Jury in New York Investi.
eating Bull Pool Examines
Six Witnesses.

NEW YORK. April 21.-That the govern
ment's investigation Of cotton speculation
will so much deeper than has been sup
posed was indicated by the course of event.
today. The grand jury. which has been
investigating the bull cotton pool, stopped
work on the case until next week. after,
1t is said. 1t had obtained possession Of a
document having an important bearing on
the case.
Six witnesses were examined today.
James A. Patten, the Chicago. operator.
who is in New York and is Interested
heavily in cotton, delivered himself OF
some pessimistlc utterances today. He
said he beloved that most Of the cotton
mills of the world would have to shut down
in August and September, because they
would AVE no cotton to work with.
One of the witnesses is said to have ad-
mitted that he had a copy Of the bull pool
agreement. on which is based the govern
ment's case against William p. Brown,
Frank 3. Hayne and other leaders OF the
bull movement and that he could produce
10 before the grand jury.
