A heavy wind and rain storm passed over ¡¡Tillamook on Monday afternoon and night, which made the farmers who had grass down somewhat anxious for (ear it would continue.

They came in on the Elmore and are here to take over the Krebs mill at Nehalem, which Mr. Banker and his associates have purchased and which they will operate in the future and ship the output of the saw mill to California.

Whituey will in all proba bility l>e the next principal of Tillamook City public school, the directors having decided upon him provided he can get a transfer from the board of education in Washington to teach in Oregon. He has certificates from the states of Nebraska and Washington. Mr. Whitney was visiting his friend (Attorney H. T. Botts) when the vacancy occurred, and he left last week lor the purpose of having the transfer made. H. A. Webster, the newly appointed Deputy Fish Warden, has arrived at Astoria and will make that city his headquarters, as he has been assigned to special duty on the Columbia, and will patrol it in search of those fishing with out a lisense. Previous to his appoint ment it had been intended that he should be superintendent of the Tillamook hatchery .“but fiow C. L.

After she left Astoria on Monday she was caught in the storm which suddenly sprang up that afternoon, when they got in the roughest sea any of those on board had ever experienced, She had to put into Nehalem, where she towed in a schooner the next day and then came on to this propeller she lost when city.

As is well known, the previous meeting voted to make an addition of four rooms, bat as there appeared to be considerable objection to this and the money voted not being sufficient to make the addition tlie directors decided to bring the matter again before the district, and in doing so I submitted pictures and plans of two buildings, the estimated cost to erect was $8,200 and $4,000 respectively, wi**»nut heating appliances. These were discussed informally for some time. The first vote taken was upon th? question as to maxing an addition to the old building or erecting a new one, which was decided in favor of a new building. Mr. Claude Thayer then moyed that the directors be authorized to borrow $4200 to erect the building with the four school rooms on the ground floor and $500 to repair the old building. To this Mr. F. R. Beals moved as an amendment to build the two.storey building, but as there appeared to be some doubt in the minds of a number of those present whether that building could be erected for the money stated, Mr. Thayer’s mo tion was carried by a large majority. The annual meeting of the Tillamook County Teachers’ Institute will be held in this city on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Julv 28th, 29th and 30th, for which Prof. G. B. Lamb has prepared an interesting program for what pro mises to be a profitable institute. The instructors are Prof. J. H. Ackerman, state superintendent of public instruc tion ; Prof. David Torbet, professor of science and mathematic at Albany Col lege ; Prof. L. H. Baker, principal of South Salem school, all well-known school men of good repute in the state, and, in consequence, from a teachers standpoint, the institute will be equally as interesting as those in previous years when these gentlemen were instructors and gave the institute the benefit of their long experience in school work. Two public lectures will be given, the first by Prof. Torbet, who has become quite a favorite in Tillamook on account of his visits and interesting lectures here. He will lecture on Monday evening, July 28th, when his subject will be “Brother Jonathan Needs You.” Prof. Ackerman will lecture the following evening on “The Educational Outlook,’’ and as he needs no introduction to a Tillamook audience, he is sure to have something of interest to lecture about. The lectures will be preceded by a short musical pro gram under the direction of Miss Ruth Cooper. Every teacher in the county, and especially the young people wno in tend making teaching a profession, should attend the institute, in fact it is almost compulsory for teachers to do so, for the County Superintendent may, at his discretion..revoke the certificate, re duce the grade, or refuse to grant a cer tificate to any teacher who refuses to at tend the county institute without cause Holders of state diplomas or certificates are expected to take part in institute work, and refusing to do so may he re ported to the Slate Board of Education for unprofessional conduct. Attorney General Knox is booked to make a few speeches in the coming elections, in which he will give special attention to the trust issue. The attor ney general is giving considerable at tention to that question now, as shown by the cases winch he has before the courts in which the trust question is very directly involved. The beet trust and the railroad trust have already heard from the law officer of the administra tion in a concrete way. Decisions are likely to be reached before the elections, and if it be found that the antitrust law is not adequate to deal with the com bines a new act will be put through Con gress in next winter’s session. On the trust issue the Republican party’s record cannot be successfully assailed. * * * It has just dawned upon us whv the dairymen and cheese makers won the .... tug-of-war on the Fourth against the loggers. Limberger cheese is a pretty strong product, and no matter how de- termined the loggers pulled, Limberger was altogether too strong for them. * * * The school meeting on Monday did a good lick of work toward beautifying and improving Tillamook Citv. Let the good work go on, and if the city dads will provide a city park and the water company a new pipe line, these would be valuable additions and do much to im- proye the citv. * * W The outside photographers who took a snap shot at most every business and private residence in the city for an out side firm (?), did not appear to work the “graft” they expected, for when they failed to dispose of their poorly finished pictures we saw them setting fire to them, which their "company’’ on the outside can never know about. * * * Suppose the county courts throughout the state refuse to receive scalps in the future on account of the money appro priated by the state legislature being ex- hausted, no doubt the next legislature will be induced to make another appro priation to silence the howl of the legis lators who come from Eastern Oregon, for they have more howling political coyotes in that part of the state than anywhere else. * * * Taking everything into consideration, and weighing fai?ly and looking at the situation squarelv in the face from an econimical point of view, Mr. Thayer’s motion at the special meeting of the school district was the right thing to adopt. It will answer all purposes and should satisfy those who have been ad vocating a new building in preference to spending money making an addition to the old building. Something had to be done to provide more accommodation, and we believe all will eventually admit that what was decided on Monday was the proper thing. * * * Figures are perplexing at times, and so are the figures of the number of per sons of school age in Tillamook county for the past five years. One would natu rally suppose that Tillamook, growing as it surely is in industrial wealth, would have a steady increase in the number of persons of school ago. It is not so, how ever, for there are nine less this year then there were in 1898. How to ex plain it we hardly know, unless the old settlers were stronger believers in the propagation of the human race than those who came after them and in recent years are but others may have a more correct theory to advance, so we give the enumeration for five years ; 1898, 1695 persons of school age; 1899, 1672 ; 1900, 1729 ; 1901, 1722 ; 1902, 1686. As each school district receives its reve nue from the number of persons of school age in its district, it is not very probable that some have been overlooked, for the tendency is for clerks to crowd as manv on the school roll as is possible, even if they have to stretch a point to keep them there. * * * I The people who come to Tillamook , every summer to peddle articles ami I solicit orders are beginning to got so numerous thev arc becoming a nuisance, and for that reason, if for no other, they should be made to pay a good round sum for a license and in this way they could be made to shoulder some of the burdens which now fall so heavily upon the permanent business mtn. There is hardly a thing that is hawked in Tilla mook City and county every summer but what can be obtained of our business men at a lower figure and a better art tide. Take for instance sewing machines and stoves. We have in mind’seye seve ral instances where people have paid $20 to $40 more for these articles to a ped dler than what thev would have paid had they gone to the business men in those lines in Tillamook City. The same to some extent can be said of farm im plements and other things. Oh, yes, if "Jones pays the freight,” it is a positive fact that the people who patronize j»ed- dlers have to go down deep in their jeans before they get through being humbug ged by people whom they know nothing about. Patronize the business men who advertise in the Headlight and you will get a square deal, for we can recommend every one of them. For Sale. One Columbia river net and lines. quire of J. A.

A good many people have thought that a cough didn’t amount to much—most excellent people whose friends were sorry to lose them. Now don't make this mistake—a cough is the first step toward serious and often fatal sickness ; stop it right there. Our Syrup, Tolu Tar and Wild Cherry, 25c., 50c., and $1.00 bottles, has proved a marvellous cough stopper. If you've just begun to cough, the 25c. size will fix you ; if it’s an old cough, try a larger bottle. It always relieves, and except in the most desperate cases it always cures. And everything a well-stocked drug store ought to have, we have. CLOUGH' CHAS I The Reliable Druggist, VW 9 >
