The Hood River man thinks we have a fine little city here, but there is no coaxing him from the Apple city as he and another broth er owns one of the finest apple ranches on the East Side. He shows his keeping, too, for he wears good clothes and smokes good cigars. You can nearly al ways tell a Hood River man by these marks. Some of them, how ever have reformed and like the printer have quit smoking and wear common duds.

This suburb is becoming more and more desirable for a place to make a home.

This means n bigger crop by far than has been harvest ed in Hood River for there is a larger acreage than ever before. It is hoped that no untoward cle ment may intervene to cut the crop short. In Portland Monday we met Les lie Butler, the pioneer batiker of Hood River, who gave n eood ac count of the little city that is hust ling for Hood River county. If there is a people on the face of the earth who deserve what they want it is the Hood River people. They are aggressive, progressive, ener getic, thoroughgoing Americans, such as make a country of the first rank. There is not the slightest doubt but they will be able to man age their coutity and every good citizen in the state should give them a vote at the coming election by making a cross between the num ber 336 and the word "yes" on his ticket.
