Dropping Party Lines Tarty lines will probably bo less in evidence in the voting thi Fall than they have been for many years. This fact is evident from the talk which is being heard every day on the street. There is being manifested a gen eral intention in the present cam paign to consider principals rath er than political creeds. Party platforms have been announced, but they have not elicited the same interest as in former cam paigns. There is that in the bal ance with which the people are more deeply concerned than in the recital of timeworn party platforms. There are unmistak able demands on the part of the people for progressive principals in the conduct of the national government and it is agreed that the successful candidate this Fall will not be the one who holds closest to the principals of the party which he may represent, but the one, rather, who the people believe will best represent them in their demand for such progressive policies, by which is meant substantial reduction in the .tariff on the necessities of life and more effective curbing of the moneyed interests. At the time of this writing the Democratic nominee at Baltimore has not yet been chosen. But whoever he may be it is certain that his supporters will claim for him that he stands for the pro gressive in politics. Indeed this will be the assertion of each of the candidates. It will be for the people to decide for themselves which of them does in fact sin cerely represent them in this re gard. Taft's supporters point to his record in trust prosecution and to his creation of the tariff board as proof that he is work ing for what the people want and assert that he is the safe and sane progressive working with the powerful forces of the Grand Old Party. Roosevelt, too, has undertaken to steal the progres sives thunder, and if he runs, will proclaim himself the only and original dyed-in-the-wool pro gressive. One of the most apparent facts at the present writing is that the people themselves, at least in this community, hold a great divers ity of opinions and public senti ment has far from crystalized. If Bryan is the Democratic nominee he will doubtless swing a heavy progressive vote from both parties. If it is Wilson his strength will not be so great. Only one thing can be predicted at this time and that is that the successful candidate this Fall, whether Taft, Roosevelt; or a Democrat, will be the one who can convince the people that he will conscientously carry into ef fect the new policies which they are now almost unanimous in de manding, regardless of party lines. Tomorrow's Celebration Tomorrow's celebration, al though a sane one, is not going to be a bit the less enjoyable for that reason. Fireworks have been eliminated from the streets by order of Mayor Blanchar in accordance with the ordinance to that effect, but their place will be taken by events which will not only be safer but also more in ac cordance with the original mean ing of the day. Many children who have never or rarely ridden in an automobile will be given an opportunity to get into the parade in the morning and the old folks can't help but enjoy seeing all the youngsters having such a good time. The patriotic significance of the day will be recalled, as it should be, at the 11 o'clock exer cises and the remainder of the day will be replete with amusing and entertaining events. If the Weather Clerk dews his part, it will be the kind of a celebration which will be a credit to Hood River and strictly in accord with the National Holiday. "Just An Ordinary Woman' She was just an ordinary worn an. without much leisure or t?Tie for culture, says an exchange. She did not know the ditference between an Ionic and a Doric column in architecture; and she was not "up" on china painting or the Roman emperors, but she brought up three children to tell the truth, and to lcjve God, to love their brothers, and to do honest labor with their hands and not to be ashamed of it. When she died the paper did not notice it, but the Recording An gel said, as he reached for a fresh pen and turned over to a clean page, "a queen is coming; get her throne ready." A life prisoner at Stillwater. Minn., refuses to accept freedom. The poor fellow has been read ing about the Taft-Roosevelt struggle, the high cost of living, the Mississippi floods and the suffragist parade until he feels safer where he is. We see by the papers that two Los Angeles girls rescued two young men from the angry deep. This being leap year, there can be no doubt about the sequel. MAZAMAS PREPARE TO CLIMBMT. HOOD When the merulern of the M.iziimi party rench their cump on the north side of Mount Hood, near 'oud Cap Inn, on the afternoon of July they will (ind that a system of camp ad- rulnUtratlon nun lieeu devlrted by the outing committee which will luHure comfort and safety. Each member of the committee will mipervlne some one dfpartment of the on tine. Tula 1 done to prevent -mlnunderitnnd-lngH, confusion and accidents. Francis I'.enefiel, chairman of the committee, will have charge of all matters pertaining to the commis sary. He will also see to the collec tlon and distribution of mail. II il Klddell will supervise flshlntf, oruau. Ize parties, select outfits and trout streams. Dr. Otis F. Akin will act as physician. The ascent of Mount Hood will be In charge of H. H. I'routy, who has acted as the Mazama guide for sever al years. before any member can Jiln the party climbing the mountain he must first sign an agreement to oln-y the guide. This Is required on all has anions trips. All excursions are or ganized the night before they start. A list of those wishing to join these parties Is made up the night before ami leaders are choen. All this Is entered In a book kept In the camp. In this way the committee Is advised of the whereabouts of mem bers absent from camp. If part li s do not return at the time expected, others can be sent out to look for them. The committee appoints as leaders only those persons who are familiar with the territory. Every precaution Is taken to avoid accl dents. FUMES OF STRAWBERRIES INTOXICATE, SAY SAILORS According to the Eimdon .Standard, a strange story about the danger of gtrawlierrles when in large quanti ties comes from Brittany. Itecently there have been several demands by local tradespeople and tourists to be granted a passage to Plymouth on the little steamers which carry the supply of early strawberries across the channel from I'lougastel, but In every cose the request has lieen refused. As the refusal was III re ceived In some cases, the shipowners have now given their explanation. The fumes given out by such large quantities of strawberries, they say, are quite as overpowering am) dun gerous as those, of any strong alcho hollc liquor. The crew have to keep on deck for the greater part of the voyage and no passenger could Ih carried exr-ept at a risk to health. The sweet jK-ns may be pliinted 8 oon bs the frost la out of the ground rid will stand dry went her the better If they re put In to a depth of from t'HiT to six Itirhes. After they corne up the Biirfaf soil should li stirred frequently, and later on the pea should be watered If th weather turns very lry. It pays to advertlM ESTIMATES ON NEW YORK CROP REDUCED That early estimates on the fruit crop In western New York were too optimistic Is now the opinion of dealers. Iteports are less glowing, stating that more or less damage has been done by cold rains, which came when the blossoms were setting, blasting many of them. As a result, dealers said the yleh' .? apples and pears would undoubtedly be smaller thM) last year. Owners of pear orchards at Man chester reported that they would have very few pears to harvest. chiefly owing to the ravages of an Insect known as the bud moth. This pest, U was said, appeared early In the spring and spread rapidly, espe cially In orchards which were not sprayed early and properly. Where the spraying was effective, orchards have a fair showing of pears. Just how much the total apple and par crop of western New York has been shortened Is not known. Both growers and dealers say It is too early to make a definite or accurate estimate. Hut they agree that both Oreenlngs and Baldwins will lie lighter than last year. Some of the other varieties are said to be show lug up well and give promise of an average crop. MRS. ANNA MCDONALD IS GRANTED DIVORCE DECREE Mrs. Auna McDonald of I'ortlaud, formerly Miss Anna Jacksun of this place, was granted a divorce the last of the week from Donald K. McDoii aid, a chauffeur. She testified that he took her riding In his car on one oc casion, but compelled her to disem bark at a roadhouse, where he drag, ged her before the bar and command ed her to order whiskey. When she Insisted on lemonade, he cursed her before the habitues of the place. Ir regular hours, frequent Intoxication and constant abuse were Included In her complaint.
