TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, AUGUST 26, 190g< Editorial Snap Shots. Fairview had just as well made it unanimous. ft ft ft A straight 9-loot channel from the bay to Tillamook City i* the slogan. ft cietv hangout in saloonsthat th» pen pie are patting them out of buxine*« ? ft x ft By a majority of votes in Till.»monk. Hoquarton. Fairview and South Prairie precincts the pe pie have decided that they are iu favor of the improvement of Hoquarton slough and a deep water har­ bor for the center of the county. That point having been settled the next thing to do is to carry out the project iu the most business like, economical manner possible. * * * Happy Camp had a deserted nppear- mice this year. Probably the h foot the bill lor the vb-latioi» 1 ol the local option law the lawless in- ( dividual» will be made to do so. ft ft ft 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 fatuous cheese. ft ft ft 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. ft ft ft 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. ft * ft 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. ft * * 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.
