now was a great mistake. What
ever benefits Toledo will gain will
benefit Newport. 1t is not right
that Toledo should do the work and
Newport share in the profits. Be-
fore much shipping can be done the
channel of the river and the harbor
must be deepened. Millions of
feet of timber on the Siletz and
other portions of Lincoln county
ready to be made into lumber and
shipped to the markets of the
world. The Yaquina harbor is the
natural route for this wealth to
find market. Newport is located
on the north side of the bay on a
peninsula overlooking a broad ex-
panse of the Pacific ocean as we'll
as a good view of the bay. a loca-
tion the most beautiful of any on
the Oregon coast.
At a special road meeting held
at 2 o'clock Tuesday at the City
Hall tax Of two and one-half mill
was voted for road purposes to be
use on the Cape street road leading
to Agate Beach. 1t is thought by
good many taxpayers that this
road is not needed because it par
allels the Big Creek and Beach
roads. which are less than mile
apart. 1t will cost five thousand
dollars per mile to build the road
and when it is built it will not be
travelled one-tenth part as much as
the beach road. 1t seems to be a
waste of money.
The new reservoir that is being
built by Mr.. Payne. the contractor.
is nearly completed The reservoir
is 1S0 feet long. 60 feet wide, IA
feet deep and will hold eight
hundred thousand gallons of water.
This with the reservoir that was
built three years ago will give New
port an abundance IF pure noun
tain water. The next thing New
port needs is sewer system. This
will also cost great deal of
money. 1t would be better to use
some of the tax money in building
sewers instead of building so many
roads.
