TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, OCTOBER 1, - DYNAMITERS WANT MONEY IE$ Demand $50,000 From Northern The beekeepers of central Illinois say Pacific Immunity from Outrages. that the present season has been the H elena , Mont., Sept. 27.— It has de veloped that the recent attempts to dynamite bridges and tracks on the line o the Northern Pacific between Livings ton and Missoula are in furtherance of a plot to force the railway to pay $50,000 for immunity frum the outrages. I11 August last the company received a letter demanding $25.000 and it was threatened if the termi proposed were not agreed to dynamite would be used on the line. No attention was paid to the demand, and shortly after the rail, road bridge at Livingston was partially wrecked by dynamite, and a few nighta later another stick of dynamite was ex. ploded near Bozeman under a passing - train. Other letters followed, and the dyna miters proposed that the company pay $50,000 and if it acceded to the demand it was to carry a white flag gii engines hauling trains and September 22 was to run a light engine from Butte to Missou la, and at a point on the road was to stop on signal, and an agent of the com pany was to pay over the money. The company, hoping to catch the men, put out the white flags and on the night agreed upon ran the light engine. Behind it followed another engine pull- ingtwocars One was filled with arm ed Sheriffs and deputies and the other contained horses and bloodhounds. The run was made from Butte to Missoula, but there was no signal, and it was thought the men had been scared off. Soon after the letters began to arrive again, the dynamiters making the same demand and telling the railroad if it agreed to the terms to put the flag on the engines. This the railroad company has not done and in the past two weeks there have been four attempts to dam age the line by the use of dynamite. One of theattempts to blow up the train .k took place in the railroad yards in this city last Monday night. This was fol. lowed a few nights later by explosions on the track near Elliston and Blossburg. Within the past ten days a powder magazine belonging to the Holter Hard ware Company, of this city, and located on the outskirts of the town was broken ARRISO! into aud 2150 pounds of dynamite garib J stolen. 3k of Class fiarl 2 igationCas cisco, Portia to TORIA.

Some Spanish fishermen of Aguilas, near Cartogena, later caught a large fish, and on opening it found a bundle of letters inside. They took this to the mayor, who managed to decipher in one the name and address of superintendent of the steamship line in London, and thus to restore the latters to their owner. * * * The Canadian government has char tered the Newfoundland sealing steamer Neptune to convey a scientific expedition to Hudson’s Bay.

This writer does not take anything like a pessimistic view of the situation, but on the other hand he does not hold out the idea that an isthmian canal will from the outset be a profitable investment, considered purely from a financial view, to the nation. Perhaps no one expects this and it will not interfere with the nearly universal demand for an isthmian canal. Faith and Virtue. TO THE EDITOR TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT. The Christian home is the domain of faith and virtue. As a nation we either sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish with the home. It is the experi ence of nations that it pays to encourage foreign ¡migration to those who establish and maintain desirable homes, the home, stead laws prove a success. The time is when homes for the rising generation ought to interest every citizen of our land. The home without faith and virtue does not meet the approval of God or the American people. No man has a right to speculate off of the home. The home is the first consideration and must be encouraged forthwith. Stamp out the home life and there is no incentive to faith and virtue. I have often heard it remarked that a man ought not to bring into the world more children than he can support, as a plett of innocence for abor tion. Will not lhe same God who pro vided for us care for the next generation I am pointed to men of large families as objectionable examples, but w as it their faith in God or was it not their brute force exemplified, and do such men incul- cate faith and virtue into their children ? Like begets like, and no man can expect his children to develope better traits than his own, whether there be few or many. Girls of fifteen know more of crime now than our grandmothers did at eighty. Knowledge of the bad has increased with the knowledge of the good. Every socialistic movement has fell through for want of faith and virtue. We have associations of different kinds, both political and religious, but how would a home builder’s association strike you, for men and women who want to live right lives. If there is anything on earth that has an intrinsic value it is a home where faith and virtue abounds. I believe that an organization, dedi cated to the Christian home and its en vironments, would be a financial success, meet the needs of those in distress, and enjoy the sunshine of God’s love. J. C.
