She is well known in the county, having attended school in this city and was quite a favorite with the young people, being a sister to Mrs. Henry Crenshaw. The groom is also favorably known in this city, being the assistant in Haltom’s department store. The happy couple left Ashland on Mon day to return to this city. Mrs. H. H. Aiderman and daughter» Miss Pauline, will leave for Portland on the next steamer with Mr Kelty, where they will reside in future. Mrs. Aiderman leaves Tillamook with thesympatliv and respect of the entire community, for being a lady of fine culture, her sudden and sad bereavement was not only a shock to her but to the citizens of this county. She will always be remembered as a kind and obliging lady, alwavs ready to assistant in any charitable or public work, and with her musical ability, she was most conspicuous and obliging. As Mrs. Aider man has decided to make up her hus band’s shortage, this alone is enough to prove that she is deserving the respect of e very body._________________ Gloomy, and Still Gloomyier. We have received the following com. munication from Congressman Binger Hermann : “I have been in conference vzith a number of Representatives, with a view of making a combined effort on the River and Harbor Committee and be fore the Department, for a liberal allow ance for Tillamook Bay. To that end, I must have assistance from the East. As the largest property-holders in Tilla mook County interested in the improve ment of navigation of the Bay are those who reside in the East, we should reach them. I ask you to have your people who are acquainted with these non resident property-holders here to com municate with them, and have them come in person to Washington, where we can have a convention of themselves and the Representatives from their States. I have been in conference with Mr. Dubois’ representatives, and we are working on the Wisconsin and Pennsyl vania members of the River and Harbor Committee. Do all you can on this line at your end. I require concerted and vigorous effort at once to overcome the adverse report of the Department.” 4, 1904 $1.50 per year Editorial Snap Shots. We have on more than one occasion thought that the fraternal spirit had died out in Tillamook, but we are glad to acknowledge that we are somewhat inis, taken. * * * It is a long time since the people of this county heard anything about the Port land, Nehalem & Tillamook RailwayC« at pany. Will someone call John McCraken and Wm. Reid up on the phone and a: k them if it is not about time for the H dad . light to write the obituary notice for that company. * * * & From present indications it is very pro bable that the river and harbor bill wiP misfire at the present congress. In that event Tillamook will not have any cause to complain that it has not received an appropriation for the improvement of Tillamook bar. It is, however, a penny wise and found foolish idea. What is wanted on this coast is more harbors to kelp develop the country. * * * It is to be hoped in future that at least every two years the county books will be audited. We can all see, from the sad experiences of the past few weeks, that had this been done there would not have been any shortage. It is easy to be wise now and to know what ought to have been done before, but the citizens have been in the habit of placing implicit con fidence in the honesty of county officials that no steps were taken to go through their books to ascertain that they were correct. It is not our intention to lay one word of blame upon anyone for this neglect, for the newspapers are perhaps more at fault than anyone for not calling attention more often to the neglect. As we have now all grown wiser after pass ing through a said experience, we sup pose in future no county official will be allowed to get a wav with public money and a close tab will be kept on them, no matter how much confidence we may have reposed in their integrity and hon- city. * * * The water question in Tillamook has undergone another eclipse, which is only right and proper, for the long drawn out water agitation was started in a wrong spirit, viz., to “do up" the present water company. The H eadlight still adheres to what it has repeatedly advocated, and still believes to be the proper solution of the water question, and that is for the largest property owners and taxpayers to come to a common understanding after carefully considering the question from a business and sanitary point of view, and after that is done select about a dozen of the most sucessful business men to form a water commission. We have been called a “knocker’’ because we did not coincide with the “hot air" n an- ner in which some people wanted to bond I the city for a large amount of money be fore they knew where they are at. When the largest taxpayers come to some such 3* an understanding then it will not l»e long I before the water question is decided and decided rigl»t________________ $ & $ Teachers’ Examination.
