Happy Camp had a deserted nppear-

gers last year had a great deni to do
with the hoodoo that now hangs over
that campgrounds, for respectable, law
abiding citlxens out for fl summer’s out

with that lawless element. Hence, that
preity and once popular resort got the

another thing that the Sun might Con

It appears fo us that thn deputy fish
wardens ought tobe sure ol their ground
before they file complaints against per
sons for violating the fishing law. 1 he
taxpayers of this county have had to pay
the costs where they have made mistakes
in swearing out complaints. Probably if
tha justice would make the deputy fish
wardens pay for their mistakes and not
the taxpayers, justice would be more
equitably doled out, for it is rank injus
tice to fbeve the taxpayers in that mai -
tier.

Then Columbia County must have a
I cvy of lawless individuals as well as
Tillamook County whu should be taught
to resjxct the law. In some of the drv ■
counties, especially in Lane county, the
county officials have gained quite a rep
utation in rounding up hootloggew, ad.
ding a large amount of revenue co the
county’s funds. Perhaps Tillamook and
Columbia Counties will get next »ome,
da*, and instead of the taxnavers '
having t«> foot the bill lor the vb-latioi» 1
ol the local option law the lawless in- (
dividual» will be made to do so.

Although Tillamook >?heese is widely
know n for its excellent and whokSome
qualities, its reputation would be still
further advanced il a little more care was
taken in the packing and boxing. Any
old kind of a box, rough edged, knotty
and often dirtv looking, is not a suitable
package f»»r Tillamook eheese.
Hood
River makes a specially ofits boxes for
at'pks. although the intrinsit value of a
box of apples is comparatively small to
a box of cheese. Therefore, we think that
the time is ripe to place Tdlamook cheese
in a pretty, specially designed box that
♦s dean neat and attractive. We simply
mention this «8 a suggestion to the dairy
associations to adopt some uniform box
and design for Tillamook Count} s must

If the Tillamook attorneys who have
u dertaken to knock out rhe local op
tion law succeed they w ill be doing some
thing which other attorneys of the State
have not been able to do. not withstand
ing that they have attacked the law in
many points without success.
If the
local attorneys succeed thev will been
titled to a big wad and the undying
thanks of the whiskey interests and the
lawless bootleggers, whom thev have
been defending with more or less success
in Tillamook County. But. should thev
fail, will the attorneys crawl into their
holes, as they did after so many decl ira
tion to the saloon keepers that they coal 1
knock the law out ? Cases are knocked
out in so called courts of justice in Ore
gon on trivial technicalities that people
are lar from satisfied.

Money talks ’ The «nap shot man has
heard a great deal of procrastination as
to the amount of money the Portland
Automobile Club was ready todonate to
assist in building a good automobile
road into I'dlainook county, and up to
the present time we have not heard of
any money being appropriated for that
purpose by the automobile club. This
county has gon»* ahead and expended
over $10,000 in rock crushers, road roll
ers and other necessary appliances to
build good roads, thus showing that the
people of this county are thoroughly in
earnest in this matter. It looks to us,
however, that we have been treated to
a considerable amount of “hot air” by
the auto enthusiasts about subscribing
money to help build roads. We invite
them tn put up their “dough’’ or quit
talking “hot air’’ about $2(1,000 being
subscribed.
Money counts, gentleman,
not “hot air” and procrastination.

Evangelist Oliver appears to ha ve given
the editors of the two city nev\ spnpers a
hot shot in calling them “skeleton
heads,’’ which was a most ungentleman.
h. unchristian remark for anyone to
make who is engaged in such a sacred
calling. We will not retaliate nor show
the same unchristian spirit towards the
rev. gentleman. As far as the editor is
concerned, the people of thiscoanty know
where the Headlight stands for morality
decency and order, and they are better
able to judge than a perfect stranger
who may come here fora few weeks. But
we are exceedingly sorry to admit it.
that while the editor has been engaged
in this fight several freak, fraudulent
and immoral “ministers of the gospel"
have l»een sent here to preach the go»pel
and attend to the spiritual needs of the
people, but instead of doing so they have
caused scandals and dragged down the
Christian religion, the agnostic and the
infidel pointing the finger of ridicule at
Christian people on account of it. That
being the case, it seems to us that the
rev. gentleman sh<»nld first attempt t>'
Cast out the motes that are in the eves
of the ministry before lie at tempi« ”• r<
move the mot»*« in the eyes of the edit«»'s
<»f this citv. We do not believ«’ that an»
earnest, sincere <’hri.*tian gentleman, or
true follower of the Mazarine who fol
lows the charitable precepts of the nc«
testament, would be guilty of hurling
uncharitable, unchristian epithet« at
editors. And we can say this without
feai of contradition that what improve
ments have taken place in the moral
atmosphere of the county, it is the Press
and not the Pulpit, which brought it
about.

We have no right to question how or
in what way a person voted onTuesdav,
vet it appears to us in a general way
that the voters in Fairview and South
Prairie did not show a magnanimou*
spirit. For this reason : A large propor
tion of the road tax is expended in these
two districts every year, and it is right
that it should be, and the county court
has decided to purchase a rock crusher, I
engine and road roller and locate it ;»i
the Red Clover factory lor the benefit <>•
Fairview and South Prairie, for the
improvement of the high wax s, but no
one in Tillamook or Hoquarlon prtciiu is
are raising any complaii’ts or opposing
the«e improvements And for a num »ei
of years thr county appropriate»^ hatb
ands of dollars a yaer of t he r< ad money
which rightly belonged t*> che citv, and
Fairview and South P.airie received a
proportion of that money. Now that
it is proposed to improve the mo«t im
portant highway—Hoquarton slough—
into the center of Tillamook count),
which needs improvement equally as well,
and »»ven more so, than the roads in Fai -
view and South Prairie,the voters in the
two country precincts oppose. If, how
ever, the slough reached as far as ilit
grange hall, it issafe to predict that th»
vote at Fairview on Munday would hav»
been almost unanimous in favor of a
Port to improve it. Therefore, we must
confess, looking at the situation in this
broad light, that Fairview and South
Prairie precincts did not show a uiag-
nannnoua spirit towards Tillamook aim
Hoquarton precincts in the matter o-
public improvements. The improvement
of Hoquarton slough is necessary at tin-
time for another reason: Nothing keeps
down freight rates on railroads as much
as water and steamship competition.
