The meanurecall for the employment of ntate, county and city primmer on the road, the countle to have the line of state prlnoner In the order of their application. It wa explained by Mr. Dana that the ntate prisoners are now employed by a firm of con. tractor who get their Hervice for the pittance of -lacetit a day and put the good manufactured on the market In competition with those manufactured by free labor. The greatest opposition to the meanre wa made by A. I. Mason, w ho came lip from Salem to be pres ent at the meeting, and objected to the section In the bonding act placing the money that would be raised for good road In the hand of the county court for distribution. Hi objection wa that politic would largely control It exendittire and that Instead of all section of the county getting a fair proportion of It Is-tiefit it would be spent where political influence wan the strongest and he proposed that the section In the bonding act delegating all the authority to the county court to dis butse t lie road money and locate it expenditure, be tricken out. A a substitute he offered a resolution that provided- for the county to pay a proportion of the expense and ttie abut t ing property a proportion, with a proviso that road Improvement lie located by petition and for the ex penilituren to be safeguarded by Issu ing unpaid warrant. The quetlon wa debated, Iatov Armstrong, J. A. Kpplng. Harry Coniiaway and other speaking against If. w hile Mr. Mason, lr. Watt, .1. W. Morton and other supported It. The result wa that It was carried. An Interesting feat are of the debate wa the state, lin nt by Mr. ( onnaw ay that he had given the matter Home attention and est limited t ha t there w ere not over 1J5 mile of road to be Improved In the valley at this time. Three hun dred and fifty thousand dollar w hlcli could lie raised by a three mill tax would permanently Improve these roads, making It unnecessary, he said, to bond. The small amount of the tax he believed would lie read liy paid w hen resident In all section . knew flint they were to lie benefit ted. With the exception of the clause re ferred to the road bill were en dorsed and Itepre'iif atlve llerby In Htrtifted to use hi effort to have them enacted. THOUGHT GOSHOW WASJ WRONG Fred CohIiow, who U one of the most popular boy in Hood River, last Sunday night was taken for a burglar. When Mr. Coshow went to work at Clarke' drugstore he wa notified by Mr. Wood that there wa a suitcase left at Klchurd & Co.' which he wa to get and take up by the Christian church, where ome relative of Mr Coshow was boarding. Mr. Coshow went up to the store and picked up the first suitcase he saw there. He asked Mr. Masiker, in Itichard. to whom the suitcase longed and he said it In-longed to the show. Coshow and show being nearly alike, understood him to nay it belonged to Coshow. Young Coshow picked the suitcase up and took It to the boarding house where he left it to be called for by hi rela tive. On hi way back he stopped where he had left some of hi friends coasting and joined them for the rest of the evening. About !:'!() p. m. Mr. Coshow wa panning acrosn the street from Ulchard. ami noticed a crowd In front of the store, which neemeil very excited. Mr. Coshow, however, paid no attention to them but went on down the street. He hadn't gone far until Mr. Masiker grablied him and said In a loud voice In-fore the large audience, "Say, young man, you're the fellow, that got that suitcase. Now you get It about a fast as you took It." Mr. Coshow, although excited, didn't know whether to hit him or not but he didn't which might have btvn a good thing, for he wa a pretty small lad for such a big man. Mr. Coshow then told them the situation and immediately went up to the boarding house where the suitcase wa taken and got It and returned It to the show companv. One of Coshow' brother had taken the right suitcase up before l-'red hail gone up to Kichard. Hi many! friend had the laugh on him and he take the matter a a good Joke. ' The suitcase lieloiigcd to the girl who wa hypnotized and wa asleep. It contained some very valuable clothe which were necessary for her to take part in Sunday night' per- formance.
