TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, AUGUST 16. Editorial Snap Shots. customary for persons to prove up on homesteads by making occasional visits to them. That being the case, it looks to us that it is not so much the fault of the people who have sworn falsely to obtain a homestead as it is in allowing the cus tom of dodging the land laws to pre dominate. If one person obtained land that way it naturally follows that the next person would want to do likewise. What the government intends doing with those who did not make permanent residence and swore falsely that they had done so when proving up, we do not know, but we do know this that if ever the government does start in it is going to catch a lot of persons in the muck rake who did not think that they were doing very wrong when they proved up at a time when government officials allowed a loose system to become a cusM tom. * * * It looks as though the liquor interests are ready to do anything to defeat the local option law. This is not surprising in the least. The liquor interests have run a good many towns in Oregon and have had numerous mayors and council men as their puppets, and for that rea son they imagine there are plenty of such puppets to be obtained again. But the trouble is, with the increasing sentiment against saloon rule, but few prominent men want to be classed as “saloon can didates,’’ Especially is this true amongst business men. Saloon rule has had its day in Oregon and the local option law’ has put a weapon in the hands of the common people that has already brought about an improved condition of affairs. It was the lawless arrogance of saloon keepers and the corrupt methods adopt ed by the Wholesale and Retail Liquor Dealers’ Association to bribe state legis lators which aroused the people of Ore gon It is a fight against saloon rule that is a prime factor in the local option fight today, not that the people are ad vocating strict temperance any more now than they did a few years ago. It is a fight against saloon rule and the lawless element that is always at the beck and call of a saloon boss that the people are fighting. That is all. It was so in Tillamook. As long as the saloon and liquor interests keep up their fight against the common people, it will only create that much more public sentiment against them. It is to be hoped that the toll road ad vocates won’t make people pay “blood’’ money fortaying their prayers. We guess they’ed do so if they could get a con tract to that effect. * * * Watch Tillamook Crow ! Two rail road? next year, sure. Perhaps three be fore long. Then watch Tillamook grow as well as crow. And this ain’t railroad “hot air” either. * * * * We understand that the law firm of Thayer & Johnson has dissolved part nership. For a young man who has a reputation to gain, Attorney Johnson made the wisest move in his life. # * * The settlers on the Wilson river are praying to be arrested for pulling down the illegal toll gate. We are glad to see that the settlers are getting a little stiff ness in their backs and are ready to fight to protect their rights. * * * No one can say that the Headlight man is afraid to express his opinion, nei- their is he a policy man, but simply a newspaper mail who isn't afraid to criti cise whenever occasion requires, no mat ter who it may offend or who it may please. * M * It ought todawn on business men that as it is the rural population in Oregon that is voting for local option, it must be that they prefer a “dry’’ to a ‘‘wet’’ town to do their trading in. As it is the rural districts from which the small cities obtain their trade, it seems that business men ought to get wise, that is if they study the wishes of their customers and the people who bring trade to a city. * * « • We have heard a great deal of late in the Oregonian how some of the “first families" in Portland have gobbled up franchises in that city in recent years,and paid little or nothing for them. Well, Portland need not think it has a mono poly of that, class of gentry. Why, they can be found all over the state, but we will gamble that those ir. Tillamook have had more “pups’’ who have gone wrong than in any other citv of its size. * * * If the oil people in Tillamook, instead of getting into the courts.would get into theearth a little quicker it would be that much more interesting to those who “Belchazzar” a Success. have signed oil land leases. It looks to us that the leases must be valuable now ‘‘Belchazzar," the sacred opera, under there is to be a legal battle as to which company they belong. It is to be hoped, the management of Prof. M.
