But for which the Editor Doe* not Hold Hlmse f Responsible jnEF“ T’n(s department of the H eadlight I b devoted to coin mu »ications received from the people and all are incited to contribute to it» 1 he subjects treated must be subjects of gen eral inteiest. I n ter no consideration what* ever will anything of a personal nature be Admitted. Should Visit the Schools Editor H eadlight ; I have been impressed with the value, of Prof. Walker’s ancle in your last issue, on '•Educa tional men for Edncat'onal Offices.” I th'nkas he does in tha*. respect, but while w • are al o i us also elect a supe int< n lent that will mak l/liis business to visit every echo .1 at least once a year in the county. This subdivision loof Bee 25, of the school laws of Oregon, impera tively commands. The common sense definition *f the law is that he shill visit every d¡strict bt least once during its school term session if it Is only of three mouths d lratio i each year. And there to aid, instruct inspire teachers as I* the best methods of teaching, gove ruing and ■inducting school,” etc; also, "he shall care fully observe the condition of the schoolhouse and surroundings, note all defects, and notify the board of directors of the same.” Now how can lie do this, unless he visits the schools. A Failure to perfor n his duties as provided in Sec. 25 lays the g.ijerin ten dent (see proceeding Sec ) to a fineoffioo; etc. Now how many schools h is the present incumbent visited during his igrm up to date? The writer may not be thoro ighly posle I in the matte r, yet, as far as his knowledge goes Mr. Walker has not visited ■as yet, more than two schools out side of the City of Tillamook where he is employed as teach er. If I am misinformed in this matter I will •tan 1 to b.J correct’d. I Wnile having greit resoeet for Prof. Walker, *s a citisen. teacher and hisgeneraly efficiency In his office with the exceptions above noted, ■ye as the law is imperative in this matter, we* wonder how lung this direlection of duty is to continued.

One thing that makes it so dangerous is that it is so little uudersto >d .

Oregon City, Or., Mar. 16, 1898. M--------------- Dear Sir; In regard toC. H. Wheeler, I think he represented while here that he was from Tilla mook and had a sawmill. He took out his final papers, being from Canada. Truly yours. Elmer Dixon Clerk. This letter prove-« beyond a doubt that tlieC. H Wheeler, who was naturaliz ed on the Sth, inst, ami the C. II. Wheeler who for the past two years Ims hehl the office of County Comniissiciier are one and the same man. Mr. Wheeler certainly must have known that the law required that he he a citizen of the United States and of the State of Oregon, and hie conduct in the matter places him in anything but an enviable light. Mr. Wheeler should resign his office st once, and ill case l e refuses to do so he should be compelled to resign. Speaks Highly 0« Tillamook. The following letter from B. 8.
