The special school meeting on Monday
was not as largely attended as the pre
vious meetings when the subject under
consideration was how to provide suffi
cient accommodation for the pupils at
tending the public school in this 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

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.

STOP THAT COUGH.
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.
