THE DALLES IN THE LIMELIGHT The Dalle haa burnt Into the lime light. Governor West and a squad or tnilitia invaded that city Saturday night, swore In four ministers as dtp uties. and proceeded to clean up the town. The regular officers of the law were not notified. Sheriff Chrisman Received no intimation that the Gov ernora deputies were at work, while District Attorney Bell was left equally in the dark. Investigations had bees curried on through the city truant of ficer and Governor West's secret agent was a gentleman of color who had formerly been employed in a Dalles restaurant. Granting that The Dalles was in need of cleaning up, it is a fair ques tion whether Governor West was war ranted in ignoring the local officers. He gave them, apparently, no intima tion that conditions were unsatisfac tory, nor opportunity to enforce the law more strictly than they had. The Governor's action was a stinging criti cism of the duly constituted officers of the law and places them in a de cidedly unfavorable light. He justi fies his action by declaring that he was recently taunted, upon passing through The Dalles, at moral condi tions In that city. Citizens of Oregon respect and ad mire Governor West. Decent, law- abiding people would banish such con dltions as are said to have existed at The Dalles, but it is a question wheth er the chief executive of the state is warranted in proceeding as he did at The Dalles and as he previously had done in Portland and other cities of the state, vindicating, perchance, the dignity of the state, but giving local officers of the law mayor, council, dis trict attorney and sheriff no indica tion that conditions were unsatisfact ory and no opportunity to escape the ignominy of an invasion by state mil ltiamen. THE DISTRIBUTORS Hood River has definitely allied her self with the North Pacific .Distribu tors. As a- result, that organization will undertake active operations this year. With the exception of Wen atchee and the comparatively small production in the Rogue River Valley the new central selling agency will control practically the entire crop ot Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Mont ana. Moreover, those districts which have affiliated themselves with the Distributors have done so with a unan imity and enthusiasm which augur well for its success. Hood River is the last of the dis tricts to ally herself with the central selling agency. Organization of that agency was affected last December and all of its details have been worked out after careful consideration by a competent board of directors. This will overcome, to some extent at least. the fact that the organization now un dertakes, this late in the season, to market approximately 80 per cent of the Northwest's 1913 apple crop. The Distributors should prove a suc cess and a most valuable asset for Hood River and the other districts of the North west. These districts have brought the apple to a great perfec tion, but they have neglected the mar keting of their product, therefore they have not received a proper return The Distributors will remedy this weakness by bringing the marketing of the fruit crop to a perfection, it Is ex pected, equaling the product itBelf. With a united support from its sev eral units .or sub-centrals and headed by men who are admitted to be the leading shippers of the Northwest, the North Pacific Distributors is in a po sition to perform a splendid service for the fruitgrowers of the Northwest. "BILLY" SUNDAY REBUKED Like Kditor Newett of the Iron Ore, "Hilly" Sunday sometimes makes statements which, he cannot prove, showing that an evangelist as well as an editor Is susceptible to occasional "breaks." Such an incident which re cently occurred is told of Mr. Sunday by an exchange. As he has a sum mer home here and ig well known to Jlood River people, the story of how "Hilly" was struck out, by Madame Schumann Helnk has its own particu lar lesson. At South Hend, Indiana, Mr. Sunday in a sermon on "Mothers" declared that "Melba, Calve, Katne, and Schu mann Helnk are cheap skates compar ed with mothers." Melba, Calve and Karnes remained silent, but Schumann llelnk, the moth er of eight children, preached a better sermon in a few words than one usual ly hears. She said: "This evangelist, as he rails himself, he preaches religion but did Christ hurt and malign people to exalt his own reputation? He taught love. Never in all his ministry did he hurt anyone. He died that otht rs might not be hurt. Never did he attack even his bitterest enemies. My children they have been my inspiration." "Hilly" Sunday apologized from the pulpit and In per.um. He was for given. THE ROOSEVELT VERDICT Roosevelt's six-cent verdict was one of the biggest ones, paradoxical as thfc statement may appear, that the court try has seen. This is true for the reason that it completely and for all times clears the name of one of tht country's greatest men from an ugly and. as the evidence showed, altogcth er unmerited charge. Through the agency of Madame Gossip probably eight persons out of ten in the I'nited Spates have heard the statement made that Roosevelt was an habitual drink er. How utterly unfounded the sland er was the trial showed. If is a point gained for clear manhood that one of the greatest and most efficient men this country has brought forth should be cleared of this slur upon hid manhood. LOW RATES GIVEN TOJELEBRATION Secretary Scott of the Commercial Club is in receipt of a letter from Charles T. Early of the Mt. Hood Rail road stating that a special train will be run between Parkdale and Hood River on the Fourth of July for the convenience of those wishing to attend the celebration to be held here. It had been suggested that the regular trains be reversed on that day ,but Mr. Early says that it would be impossible on account of mail and other matters. He will, however, run a train out of Parkdale at 8 a. m, This train will leave Hood River for Parkdale at 10 p. m. and the rates will be the usual ones one and one-third fare for the round trip. Special rates will also probably be secured on the O.-W .R. & N. from The Dalles and Portland, as well at intermediate points. The rates will be reduced as usual a fare and i. third from Portland and intermediate points and a rate of one dollar for the round trip from The Dalles. No special trains will be necessary, but extra coaches will be attached to trains from The Dalles and Portland on that day. J. H. Fredricv. aecnt here for the O.-W .R. & N., has made such recommendations to William Mc Murray, general passenger agent. HOOD RIVER GIRLS CHOSEN University of Oregon, Eugene. Georgia Prather of Hood River, has won the election for president of the Women's Athletic Association, recent ly organized by the co-eds of the state university. The athletic association is supposed to include all women stu dents, and Its purpose is physical bet terment rather than competitive sport.
