Manages Subscription, $1.50 a Year in Advance Kntered as s-ond--lasa matter. Feb. 10. at the post office at Hood River. Oraron. under the Act of March I 1879. The Apple Growers' Union The paramount interest to llxxl River's local fruit raisin? citizens will center this week in the annual meetinp of the Apple Growers' Union, which will be held Saturday. In many res pects this is the most important event in the year's cycle of local happenings, although it has fre quently been necessary to scour the country in order to get a quorum to transact the year's business. This will probably not be the case this year, but grow ers should remember that if they have objections to raise or sug gestions to offer the annual meet ing is the time and place to air them. If it is desired to adopt a new "policy in the management of the union let the stockholders come to a decision at the meet ing, and not on the street cor ners afterward. That there is dissatisfaction with the management of the union's affairs this year is no secret. Whether it is justified will be best decided when the management makes its financial statement. However, the stock holders are the ones best quali fied to judge on this point and it is for them to inaugurate ways and means for new departures. There is a cardinal point that should be borne in mind that no matter how much contention may arise over the management of the organization, it should be loyally supported among the members at large. An opinion seems to prevail among a few that influences are at work to disorganize the union. This opinion we believe to be without foundation, and nobody who is interested in the welfare of the community will entertain such an opinion. The strong organiz ation which has been maintained by the growers of Hood River has been its greatest asset, and will continue to De witn proper management It should be re membered that the primary' busi ness of the union is marketing fruit to the best advantage for all its members; that it is for the purpose of maintaining quality and pack; and that to the stock holders the conduct of its affairs should be an open book. A pol icy that seeks to piay pontics in the control of its affairs; that seeks to put it into competition in lines of trade; or attempts an unwarranted monopoly in fruit handling will not in the main be successful. The marketing of the apple crop has reached that stage where its management is a sub ject of deep consideration. The matter of salary where the de sired result can be accomplished is of secondary importance. The main point is a healthy organiza tion supported by its members in face of petty differences. If the management is at fault it should give way to a better one, and if it isn't it should be upheld. Men who have to be kept in positions of control in order to retain them in the ranks of the organization can as well be eliminated first as last The time has come for a broadening of the work of the union and those who are for its best interests will work to this end, regardless of personal pre ferment Electric Railway Enterprise Subscriptions totaling $100,000 were raised in Chehalis last week to liond the Chehalis & Cowlitz Railway Company. Despairing of getting an outside company to improve their transportation fa cilities the people of Chehalis are going to build their own outlet. Similar projositions are going forward in other parts of the Northwest Several Oregon com munities expect to provide from their own purses what the big i financial interests say cannot In? furnished from Wall street Del egates from all parts of Chelan Okanogan and Douglas counties will assemble in Wenatchee soon to consider what steps can be taken to get a road built up the Columbia river to tap that rich section, and the people of Met how Valley are already at work on their own electric line. An eleetric railway at Hood River, constructed and equipped by local capital is tar irom im possible and its execution is not too remote to have consider ation of it called to the attention of the community. To insure the best success of the undertak ing, whether financed by home capital or otherwi e, it will be desireable for local capitalists to have an interest in it. When the time arrives to grant a franchise for this purpose it should be the duty of residents of both valley and city to see that it is not juggled with, and to get a contract in exchange for this valuable right that will in ure to the benefit of the people as well as the company. The franchise should r.ot be given away, no matter who gets it. without assurances of the com pletion of the work and the maintenance of an efficient ser vice. NORTHWEST NOTES Cove, the beautiful and thrifty fruit growing city of the Grande Ronde Valley, has taken steps to organize a commercial club. One of the first projects in view is the holding of a cherry fair the first week in July. North Plains is one of Oregon's newest towns and one of the first things it did was to organize a commercial club and line up with the progressive spirit now so no ticeable throughout the state. Portland Commercial Club offi cials, railroad men and others made an excursion to North Plains during the week and at tended the "christening" of the new town. Oregon postmasters will hold the annual convention in Portland June 7, 8 and 9. Selection of the place of meeting and the dates were made during the past week. Postmasters of California Washington and Idaho will be invited. Matters for the better ment of the service will be dis cussed and many suggestions made that will very likely be adopted by the department. Business men who exclude men from their places for wearing the uniform of the United States army, navy and marine corps, will be guilty of a misdemeanor and subject to a fine of $50 here after. This is a new federal law for which officers in the govern ment service have been working for some time. Only recently several sailors were barred from a skating rink in Seattle. De spite vigorous protests nothing could be done. Now, Uncle Sam will protect the men wearing his uniform. I CITY INVESTMENTS 100x100 on Oak street with good buildings, rental income, $110 per month, only $16,000 Until April First 100x20 ) on Cascade Avenue, consisting of four good lots and frame house. This will double in value within two years. Price, $7ooo Good Terms There will be great activity in city property this year. Snaps such as these are not on the market long. Sec Our List of Orchards J. H. HEILBRONNER & CO., g&Sffi Instead of the usual foolishness that attends April 1st, one Ore gon town will accomplish some thing useful. Gaston, under the direction of the women's auxil iary of the commercial club, will clean house that day. Every body will help, and it will be known as the clean-up day. Oregon's Naval Militia will get the cruiser Boston for use in training the members in the ways ot the navy, lhe vessel will be available May 15 and will be stationed at Portland. Cruises will be made to sea and to coast points to give the membership practical instruction in handling a fighting ship. The reserve is an active organization that prom ises to become more important as time passe'. Oregon is getting its full share of the colonists who are crowd ing the westbound trains. A tel egram from Louis W. Hill, pres ident of the Great Northern, to Manager Chapman of the Com mercial Club bore the informa tion that over one-third of the passengers on the Oriental Lim ited one day out of the Twin Cities were bound for Oregon. This ratio is probably true of practically all of the colonist trains coming to the Northwest. As soon as weather conditions permit the Great Northern will resume work on the million dol lars' worth of snow sheds it is building in the Cascade moun tains. Some 1,500 feet of sheds were finished last fall, in the vi cinity of Wellington, where the fatal disaster happened a year ago. This season the snow did not inconvenience the operating department of the road, to speak of. Although some snow fell it went off in such a way as not to disturb schedules. The roadway will also be made secure against premature thaws. MT. HOOD RAILROAD TIME TABLE NO. Effective 12 M A. M . October th. 1111 Son tli bon n d .Yortli bou n d A. M. Stations P.
