J? TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, JULY 14, 1910 Editorial Snap Shots The snap allot man thinks, an the ladle« are having such a delightful time at the Commercial Club on ladies' day, that they should have ail entertainment committee. ’ Not much going on this week by way of news, only that it is cool and delightful in Tillamook. Thiseoun- ty at thia season of the year has all other parts of the country skinned fur cool and delightful weather. No, Bro. Trombley, Bro. Baker was not wearing hie specks upside down when “recuring” his data. Simply a folio of copy getting mis placed. But say, Bro.,, please ex plain how you come to use tlie word “recuring,” for “procuring.” So the Democratic anti-assembly howl don’t amount to much after all, for the! Republican party is going to run its own affairs in fu ture, the same as any other organ ization. But we suppose a few Democratic newspapers like the Portland Journal and some of our country newspapers will continue to whine because Republican are getting together to tiefeat the Dem ocratic howlers at the next State election. The stoie ige of gasoline on the water front iu a dangerous custom and should anything occur to cause a tire it would probably wipe out the whole city.' You can't play with explosives without getting bit at Borne timeor other. What would happen to the water front, the ship ping and the city if several thou sand gallons of gasoline were in the midst of a fire ? Why, there would lie something doing in the way of valuable property going up in thick smoke. ■ from distraction and defeat 1 he way to bring back peace and good order in the party is for patriotic Republicans to beat the assembly i iu its inception and end thefooliuh- 1 ness for all time. la this advice taken from a Re publican newspaper? No, dear reader, it is clipped from the edi torial columns of tlie Portland Journel, a Democratic newspaper which is doing everything in its power to stir up discord in the Republican party and which will not be found supporting a single Republican candidate fur office after the primary, no matter whether such candidate may have been named by assembly or otherwise. Any Republican in Oregon who is permitting himself to be influenced by the Portland Journal is due to experience a rude awakening after the September primary.—Polk County Observer. The Executive Board of the Tilla mook Commercial Club had an in teresting session on Friday evening, which indicates that the club is going to be an important factor in city and county affairs. The first matter which came up for consider ation was the write up of Tillamook county, and as it had proved such a miserable failure, the Board at first thought it would be better to expend the money on roads, but after care fully discussing it from all points o* view, the Board finally agreed that the county needed some literally ■natter so as to induce home seekers to iocate in Tillamook, and the mat ter of compiling this was turned over to the editor of the Headlight and Attorney George Willett. The matter of having the city charter amended was the next question that took up some time, with the result that the Board was to call on Mayor Coates and have him appoint a committee to draw up a new char ter. Some very pertinent remarks were made as to the rotten police system, the Board coming to the conclusion that it had never been worse. Some members of the Board felt a little restive on account of the delay in getting work Btartedonthe improvement of Hoquarton slough, and steps are to be taken to help bring about more activity. So Bro. Hofer, who wants to he governor, succeeded in getting $25 out of the county for some copies of the Salem Journal with a poor write of Tillamook County. We willgam- ble it won’t do the county 25c. worth of good. Gee ! This must be a wounderful county for the traveling write up men to catch suckers, and it is a wonder to us that more have not flocked into the county when they can make such easy money.
