Did Mr. Reid send Mr. Simmons to
Tillamook for the purpose of getting we
poor mortals worked up on “hotair ?’*

The Headlight is getting to be quite a
big infant, for it is now eighteen years
old and growing more vigorous at every
anniversary.
* « *
Corvallis is somewhat in the same fix
as Tillamook City. It went ’‘dry" last
November on the saloon question and
i* now up against an injunction on the
water question.

Another bank president has gone to
the penitentiary for ten years, and it is
safe to predict that he feels confident he
will be pardoned before he has served
but part of the time.

Will the water company beat the city
in the suit that was filed in the federal
court to enjoin the city from selling

My .’ The way to frighten home seekers
from coming to Tillamook is to inform
them that the county is tied up and held
up with toll roads. No wonder that a
home seeker is getting to be a curiosity in
Tillamook.

Herald this week, by the roasting and
the advertising that the Headlight man
came in for, that the former editor was
running that paper again. Pile it on
thick and fast, Rollie, more the merrier.

After all the pow wowing about build
ing a new court house, from what
we can learn it has fallen through. Just
as well have awarded Mr. Brodhead the
contract when the bids were opened, but
-it seems the bosses did not want him to
have it.

Missouri was al ways democratic but
last year it went republican. Who knows
but what someday the political bosses
will knife the republican party so badly
in Oregon that it will put the state in
the democratic column ? Many funny
things happen in politics.

Most all of the country newspapers in
the state roasted the Oregonian over the
