Women School Superintendents.
In the school superlntendency con
teat the decision of Judge Burnett is in
effect that the constitution dees
not permit a woman to bald the
office, and Mr. Handley still holds
possession unless the matter is carried
to the supreme court and decided dif
ferently, which is doubtful. In fact,
it is not probable that Mrs. May will
go to the expense of appealing tbe case
as there is not enougli salary connected
with the office to warrant it, even if
she were ultimately successful. It
leaves the matter now In a shape for
tbe county court to appoint a school
superintendent, which responsibility
it will probably not shirk, (someone
should be appointed, even If it is Mr.
Handley. It remains to be seen if the
county court will allow Mr. Handley
to hold the office by taking no action,
or appoint blm or someone else to fill
it Tillamook Headlight.

A Summer Hotel.
During tbe past week this place has
been visited by a party of San Francis-
on capitalists, who are negotiating for
a site on which to erect a first-class
summer hotel. It la to cost not lees
than $50,000, and it is their intention
to have It completed In time for next
season. It will be furnished with all
modern conveniences, and will be sup.
plied with a variety of amusements
calculated to assist summer visitors to
pass the days in an agreeable aud re
freshing manner. If this project is
carried out iu the mauner aud style
contemplated, it will enable Newport
to boast tbe possession of the finest
summer hotel on the Northwest coast.

COMMUNICATION.
Garden Grovb, Cal., Sept 3. 1894.
To me Editor or mi Exrua:
I see no rules In your paper forbid
ding novices to write to your paper,
and as my first short letter appeared,
i win try again.
May be you think we are all drowned
down here as the weather prophet haa
foretold, but such is not the case, as
we are living on as dry ground as ever
and just as far from the beach.
We had a small shower last nlsrht
which laid the dust for a few hours
today. Speaking of the dust recall) to
mind an article In the Express In the
Waterloo Garbage column, where the
writer says the dust Is so deep that
they have to bridge the dangerous
places the dust is not quite that bad
here hence requires no bridging.
20 utt was a schorcher. The ther
mometer went to 116 deg. In the sun
and 105 degrees iu the shade. Two
men were sunstruck In Los Angelea
out no raial results have yet been re
ported. Some of tbe walnut groves
look as though a fire had gone through
their branches, all of the leaves and
even some of the fruit being cooked on
some of the trees. I do not under
stand these hot winds from the desert,
oui some people say it was the effect
of the alliance picnic held here in the
grove that day, and when the speakers
were rubbing tbe Republicans and
Democrats over tbe coals it produced
the heat Let the cause be what It
may I ido not want to ate another
Buoh day.- - -.
Califpmians are strictly In It now.
every man, woman and child, young
and old who can get away from city
or country homes rush to the beach.
Surf bath lug Is at its height now.
People by the thousands go in bath
ing every day little children four and
five years of age up to the old people
who are bent and gray with age. It
Is a sight never to be forgotten to see
how hideous some people look in bath
ing costumes. We have Lsguna, New
rort, Shell, Bolsacblco, Anahem
Landing, Long Beach, Bedonda,
Santa Pedro, and Santa Monica
beaches, all popular resorts and all in
a radius of twenty-five miles of Gar
den Grove. Sugar beet harvest Is in
full blast now, but the tonage Is small
to the acre owing to dry weather,
Tbe mill expects to turn out 2O,0Q0,OAO
pounds or refined sugar thla year.
. I spoke something about snakes iu
my last letter, well they have all
been shipped East, I refer to those to
large rattlesnakes I saw in Bant
Ana, but there are plenty more five
fsoters up in the mountains. Anyone
can get plenty of snake specimens by
by going to the mountains.
Bespt Yours,
J. M. Burtenshaw

An Oregon Invention.
A rcoeut number of the Selentifle
American contains a description and
cut of a very oompaot and powerful
motor Invented by 0. E. Brown of
Stay ton, Oregon. The motor is design,

other power, and can be used with
equal facility as a rotary pump. Iu
cuuairucuuii it is simple ana it will
In aU probability ultimately supersede
