Some people wonder if Mount Hood waa ever a live volcano. Indian leg end says that it was . E. C. Greenman, the well known pioneer, states that only a few years ago he heard two different Indians tell the story of the time when Mount Hood belched forth fire, ashes and rock. The story had been handed down among the tribes from generation to generation, and these old Indiana could point out physical marks on the face of the country alleged to have been made by the eruption of Mount Hood. One of the Indiana repeated the story aa handed down to him by hia fore fathers, which was to the effect that the ashes from the Mount Hood volcano covered the ground for a depth of six inches within four miles of Oregon City. However, it is not now believed that there 1b any danger of Mount Hood ex ploding until after the June election. . A dispatch from Sumpter states that J. W.
