No one expected that the special inter

the return of the girl to this city. Nor

The way to ruin the reputation and
lower the price of Tillamook cheese is to |
keep on publishing articles like that
which appeared in the Herald last week
That will fix it, good and plenty. But
here are the facts. A car load of cheese,
made up of shipments from several of the
factories, wa» »ent to Los Angeles, but,
unfortunately, the cheese was a long
time in transit, and when it arrived there
one small hatch Irom one factory, had
become a little monldv. The loss on that
account wa» very trifling. Anyone who
will magnify a trivial affair like that
and proclaim it to the world that the
reputation of Tillamook cheese is ruined
tor th» next three years, is doing the
dairy industry of this county a great
deal of harm.
But that is what the
Herald is doingin its attempt to butt in.
What about the tons upon ton» of splen
•lid cheese manufactured at the large co
operative factories ’ Oh. no. not a word
about that. The object is to drag down
the reputation ot lhe large factories and
place ii 111 a grade wnh the small amount
ol fwior cheese. When a box oi apples or
erate of st< a w beri ms go bad on account
of being so long it transit, no one hears
of the Hood River newspapers 'knock
ing" those industries. Whv then all this
‘'knocking'' the dairy industry because
one small shipment of Tillamook cheese
did not reach its destination in |ierfect
condition ? Keep the "knocking" up—
the jobbers will be the gainers and the
dairymen of this county the losers
BAR IMPROVEMENTS.
Predicts that Tillamook
Bay willBecome the Lar
gest Lumber Producing
Port in the World.
It is gratifying to know that the tim
her ownersere to make an effort for the
improvement of Tillamook Bar at the
coining session of the national legisla
ture, and, if possible, to secure an appro
priation for that purpose, as will be
seen bv a letter received from Mr Ru -
sell Hawkins, representing The W hitue*
Co.. Ltd., and addressed to the people
of Tillamook County.
The improve
ment of the bar is no new problem to He
dealt with, for the Headlight has often,
the past ten years, discussed every
phase of the question from the great
timber resources of the county to that
of the immense lumber producing dis
trict this will become when the bar is
improved, and with the fact that the
government is in possession of the sur
vey, plans and cost for the improvement
of the bar. All this was not obtained
without some effort and hard work, but
it seems that the people were doomed to
disappointments at times when it looked
us though the project would lie approver!
and appropriation made. Whenever the
Engineer ill this district recommended
the improvement,the Board of Engineers
at II arhington turned down the project
by making reports that the present com
merce of the port did not justify tlie ex
penditure or tlmt Tillamook bar »■»« so
near the Columbia river to undertake
the construction of another jetty. The
last report is that the commerce of the
l*ort did not justify the expenditure. We
have show 11 again and »gain lhere is no
logic in such re|«ort, for it is the pros
pective commerce |of the port which
should l>e a determining point, for to
lottie up an immense amount of timber
and other resources, with no way of get
ting it out, looks to us the height ot ah.
surdity to say that the present commerce
of the port does not justify the expen II
tine.
And it is these reports wInch w ill
tie found tlie greatest obstacles to over
come, with the veto of the Boaid of En
gineers attached to It, so if anything is
accomplished in the next session of the
legislature it will have to be done by
insisting upon the Rivers and Harbors
Committee placing an item in the rivers
and harbors bill for a sufficient amount
of money to c instruct the south jetty.
This is where, in our judgment, a strong
fight should tie made and would over

Charged with the murder of M. ft

while employed as watchman oil the
steam schooner Washington, at
the
drydock, in Portland last week, a war
rant was issued for the arrest of Captain
F. Theorien, recently master of the gas
oline sloop Condor and exmate of the
steamer Sue H. Elmore.
Theorien has completely disappeared
since the tragedy, though the search,
ing officers believe lie may be endear,
oring to secure passage on a sea-going
vessel, either at a local or down.river
port. It la poenible that ha may have
embarked on one of tha vessels that
have departed sir.cs the discovery of
the murder, but every port which these
vessels will make has been notified by
the officers. His street is expected
hourly, for it is believed that all pos.
atble means of escape have been closed.
Theorien Is an ex-convict, having
served four years at the State Peniten
tiary at Salem for forgery. Soon after
Ids release, he secured the position of
mate on the steamer Sue H. Elmore,
which plies between Astoria and Til
lamook. His next job was as captain
of the gasoline sloop Condor, plying i
between Portland and Alsea Bay.
