Cheese is not very bulky freight and |500.000 worth would not afford very much traffic for a railroad. Viewed from another standpoint, how ever, the value of the business is some what different, fur $300,000 can buy a great many tram loads of freight which will be shipped into the country. ’* * * * Ross, the Portland bank buster might take items. Hembret, the Sandlake mur derer, thinks the judge erred when he granted a change of venue from Tilla mook to Polk and not to Yamhill coun ty. If the contention of the attorneys in the Hembree case holds good, then the change of venue from Multnomah to Marion county in the Ross case was also an error. But what a farce the courts of justice are made of w hen it comes to deciding cases on technicalities. * * * 1 he snap shot man used to come in for a good deal of joshing because he pub lished the news about the numerous ‘ hot air'’railroads, so much so that it was characterised as “Another of Baker’s hot air railroads.*' But those who used to jolly us on that score don’t do it any more. But we think that Charley Rey nolds missed it on Monday when he fail, ed to reproduce the train he constructed for a Pourth of July celebration some )ears ago when he had bull teams for the motive power for his novel tiain. * * * Garibaldi beach, which is often called Nehalem beach, should be named “ Tilla mook lieach.’’ We make this suggestion now because that lieach is able to accom modate more visitors than any beach in the county, consequently it would be more appropiiate to Call it Tillamook beach. There is not the least doubt but that the lieach will become one of the most popular beaches in Oregon, and all things considered, and to get the name of Tillamook summer resorts before the public, call Nehalem m Garibaldi beach Tillamook beach. « * * Up in Linn county the near beer sellers have been fined fur selling that decoction because it was actually t»eer they were selling to their customers, for the analy sis showed that the product of the Salem Brewery Company was 3.58 per cent o1 alcohol ami the Roseburg product al out 3 34 per cent. An) thing with over 2 per cent is a violation of law As the remark i* often heard that lite near l»eer sold at the near beer joints in ibis count) is leer ol the usual vintage, these two little in. «idents turely ought to put the county officials next- * * < It is quite natural that every business man in Tilbimook City is interested in every hidusltv which helps to make this citv a nianulHvtuimg center and creates a pay roll, something which the city must have bcfote the population cau be come file thousand, ten thousand or twenty thousand. The prospects and possibilities for Tillamook Citv titver looked brighter than they are today. The city is splendidly and logically situ ated to mukr an ideal, pretty and attrac tive city. and with a long pull, and a pull altogellier this can be lit ought about in a few years. The Headlight is confident of this it the citisrns would get the boost- ter«’ spirit and a little civic pride enthu siasm. L» t out motto be “Pull loge ther to make lillamook City an indus trial center and a live, up to date city “ It will not be long now before the rail road will lie completed, and with the changed conditions it will bring, this city mun pull together and du some hustling to SUSI a II its supremacy. An effort will have to l»e made, and the Headlight is of the opinion that in offering this word of advice, now it the right time to get to gether and h?oat and boom Tillamook City with I he object of making it a large industrial «-enter and a busy busiuess city. But thia caonot be done by knock ing or helping to pull down what supre macy the city has already acquired. n • st The escursiun on the Pacific Railway Ik Navigation Company s railroad from Tillamook City on Moiday afforded a great deal of enjoyment, and especially to some of tbs old settlers who. for the past twenty rears have heard of all manner of schemes and propositions to give Tillamook railroad connections. The columns of the Headlight, from the first day it was publish, contains “hot air” railread schecre« aglore. so much so that people lost all confidence end hope ol see a railroad built into this const* after so many years <>f procrastination until Mr E. E Lytle appeared on the scene and laid hi* plans before the peo ple. There were doubting Thomas’ then, as there are now, as to when the road will l>e completed. However that mav be, the excursion on Monday is an assur. ance that it is no “hot air’’ paper road, for it is going to convert Tillamook county into a great industrial center auo into a great sea side or summer re.-ort, when the beaches—such as Garibaldi— will have thousands of cottages and also thousands of visitors will flock into this county etery year. As the railroad will traverse the whole length of Garibaldi beach, some nine miles in length, it will give those traveling on the cars an un obstructive view of the Pacific Ocean. as well a* N1 halem and Tillamook Ba) s and the iMMiiiiful dairying and heatilv tim bered country, all combining to make this imlrtmd one of the most attractive m llie Northwest, with mii immense amount ut business whenever the la>t spike is driven. Nut withstanding the heavy down pour of rain on Monday, over a thousand person took their first ride on the railroad, which afforded a great deal of enjoyment, but the most pleasure and enthusiasm and shouting will take place when the road is completed in commemoration of the day that Tillamook county is liber ated from its bottled-up and isolated condition. M * * 'The Headlight is vigorously rasping its readers in a fruitless effort to create a aentimeut in favor ol appointment of a County expert road engineer. Men who have spent the greater part of 15 or 20 years building roads in this county can, it given leaway. build better roads, all things being considered, than a locallv inexperienced expert, whose wisdom would be largely theoretical. What the county most needs is a board of commis sioners with sufficient blood in its veil.s from congealing. H. M. Farmer can build roads; so can Dan Hickey. Because there is a standpatter liable to stray from the fold if not pro vided with a “lucrative position,’’ is no reason why the county official pavrull should be burdened with an useless high salaried official name.—Turner's Leaflet. The above is a most unfair and illogi cal wav todiscuss the road question, lor the Sage of Hemlock does not help the good roads movement in this county by publishing false insinuations. The Head light has endeavored to avoid all iierson alities or politics thus far, feeling con vinced that it would do the good roads movement a great deal of good to discuss it fairly and impartially, especially as there is .such a confliction of opinion as to how roads should for should not be constructed. But here was the situation. There was a general complaint all ov r the county that for the large amount < t taxvs collected lor road purposes, the countv was not getting the good roads it whs entitled to. Then it was that the Headlight undertook to show the cause and suggest a remed) in the management of road construction, for under the pre sent system of road construction there is no practical and experienced person at the head of it. no data or maps showing the grades or location of county roads or biidges, no one to advise the court as whether a bid for contract work was reasonable or exorbitant, etc. And as long as large amounts of money are ex pended in resurveying and rebuilding roads which have l>een changed and re built several times tieforv. there is always going to be a leakage of road money . and from the opinion of those whoarci'ble to speak authoritatively, enough money have been wasted in Tillumook county to pay a big salary to an experiei erd engineer lor the next hundred years. No matter who may differ with as to the merits or demerits of the present system of road building in thia county, a change will have to be made before the best re sults can lie obtained Other counties have had to get out of the old ruts before the) obtained good roads, and it is only “standpatters’* like the Sage of Hemlock who adhere tc the antiquated and ex pensive methods of road building in this county. ___________________ headlight , jüly Mesting Bstween an Ambitioua Hunter and Hla First Grixsly. “Sketches of Life lu the Golden In evVn^^in^^ ptldc’laUaiv hereby le-' Colonel Albert 8.

The hunter sat down to rest in the Shade of a tree and unwittingly went to sleep When he woke It was near «unset, and he sat up. rubbing bl eves and contemplating a return to bls hotel, several miles distant. Just then a rustling and crackling noise from a dump of chaparral about 100 yards away attracted his atten tlon ‘ out walked a grizzly bear, a monarch of bls kind. He yawned, licked his Jaws and then advanced to ward the tree where our bunter sat. but evidently was unconscious of his presence. His grizzly majesty bad proceeded about twenty paces when a female bear followed him. and an Instant later a third grizzly followed her nt a slow, shambling pa e. The hunter sat spellbound with ter ror as the procession came toward him until the forward grizzly was within thirty vards Then, scarcely realizing what he did. he sprang to his feet and uttered a frenzied yell-yell upon .'el,! . The effect was magical. The fore most bear sprang into the air. turned sharply about, knocked the female down, rolled over her. gathered him self up and bolted “like forty cart loads of rock going down a chute" straight for the chaparral again, the other two bears close at his heels and never turning to see what had frightened them. The hunter, seeing the enemy re treating. sprang to his feet and fled at top speed for the hotel, leaving hat and gun behind. The truth of his wild and startling tale was proved tbe next day by the numerous bear tracks of different sizes found in the marshy ground near by. But the three bears had gone off beyond pursuit. THE NEW ORE. One of Andrew Carnegie's Early Iron Experiencee. Andrew Carnegie once stated that a short time after the starting of his first plant In Pittsburg he had an odd experience with iron ore. “1 was offered some ore that sam pled about the usual grade, so far as I was able to Judge from appearancesiy at a reduced price,” he said . "1 bought several thousand tons—a big order for those days. The second day after we commenced to run it the foreman came to the office and told me the new ore was of no account, that It did not flow and that the furnaces were so choked they would have to be dumped unless some remedy wns found. Those tires were built to last two years, and to dump them at this time would mean so heavy a loss as to practically put me out of business, A young chemist bad called on me a few weeks before. and. while I had not paid much atten tion to him. I had kept his card. It occurred to me that he might possibly tie of some help, though I confess I did not then see what chemistry had to do with the iron business. But I sent for him. and he came at once. First he examined the new ore and then the old that we had been running without difficulty, and finally be looked at the furnaces. To avoid delay he made a little test of the two ores right there, I had told him when he ar- rived that 1 felt sure the new ore was worthless and admitted my mistake In buying it. Of course I did this as I did not want him to think I was Ignorant of the business. You can Imagine my surprise, then, when at the conclusion of his test he quietly Informed us that the new ore was so good we did not know how to run it. The fact was that the new ore con tained 20 per cent more iron than the old. and all that it was necessary to do was to add a proportionate increase of flux to bring about reduction.”— American Industries. Heat Conductors. Some substances conduct heat more freely than others, silver among the metals being the best conductor, and as a unit of measurement is taken at 1,000. Compared with silver as a con ductor. gold Is 981. copper 845, xlnc 641, tin 422, steel 307 and wrought Irou 436. Glass, wood, gases, liquids and resinous substances are bad con ductors. Water is such a poor con ductor that If heat Is applied to the top It will boll at the top. while the bottom will remain cold. Reformed Spelling.
