Call around and examine stock. Monday morning Mr. Herbert Ells worth was riding horseback out of town, and when near Dr. Adams' place the horse bucked and threw him off. He fell with his head and shoulders ' striking tbe hard ground in the mid- j die of the road. He was picked up In sensible and brought to town in a wheelbarrow, and remained insensible all day. Tuesday he was about town as -usual, feeling no worse for tbe acci dent except a soreness in the shoulders and a lump on the back of his head. The horse was never known to buck before. After it, had thrown Ellsworth ' it returned to town, bucking nearly all the way. F. M. Broadbent was arrested here Tuesday morning, on complaint of bis wife, charged with adultery. His pre liminary examination was held before Justice Soesbe, and the evldenee was sufficient to bold him to appear before the grand jury. Constable Olinger was directed to take him to the county jail at The Dalies, where lie now languishes in default of $1500 bail. Broadbent is a young man of probably 30 years.. He atone time managed the saloon known us the "Saint's Rest," across the Co lumbia river, and later lias been In the same business at Stevenson. He is good looking and intelligent, and if so disposed could succeed at most any honorable calling.. But bis reputation is bad, and if be does not get the full extent of tbe law it will be the fault of the prosecution. Mr. Lee'Harrls of Harrisville, Utah, was in Hood River during the week. Mr. Harris is a railroad engineer, and was one of tbe unfortunates thrown out of employment by the strike on the U. P. last July. He owns 120 acres of land on the east side ot Hood river, ad joining the land of John Sweeney. He says he has been all over this west ern country and has never seen any part of It he likes as well as Hood River. It is his intention to sell part of bis land and improve the rest by planting apple trees, and will then make bis home here. . t t T-.i i j e. : broke and all were thrown to the ground, but without injury. The spring wagou contained Mr. JUiis, tils wife und mother and son Don and a basket of eggs. ' The eggs were a total wreck. The accident happened on level ground. There is no telling what would have been the result if the break had occured, say in com ing down tbe Roger's hill. Wm. Tillett, Saturday, showed us a lot of trees he had brought to town on an order, yearling apple and cherry trees. They were about six feet high and bad good roots. He uses extra care in digging, so as to preserve the roots, and herein lies success iu trans planting trees. See that the trees you buy have good roots that are not muti lated in digging. "Where there is a will there is a way." If you are determined to set trees and have not the money to buy, call at the Columbia nursery and I may be able to help you get some. . II. C. Bateham. M. N.

In Regard to "Incorporation." Hood River, Nov. 21, 1894. Editor Glacier: I see in the Glacier of the 17th that .voters are called on to nonv lnats one mayor, six aldermen, one re corder, one treasurer, and one marshal on Saturday night, Nov. 24, 1894. These officers are to rule over and tax and pass laws for an "incorpora- tion" which up to date exists only iq the imagination of a few non-paying hoodlums who. live on what they owe and squat around stores (the saloon is gone now), and perhaps one or two re sponsible men who have a very dull ax to grind. . , This notice of the nominating meet ing Is signed "Committee" nothing else. Why did not ihe "committee" give us their names? I infer it means tfie "committee of safety" that has been posting notices on trees and stumps for the last tea, years. This committee wants to incorporate. In f'nrnnrrttft what? I 1 they wanted to incorporate. Ib did j not take my liome in. I rested easy an,i thought if others wanted to go in and be taxed, all right. The "incor- poration" drummed up their forcesand concluded to take in my home so as to get tax enough to make up the ten thousand dollars they wanted, to 'pay the salaries of the officials, to gradeit.be streets, to build , the. "calaboose;' -to make a "pound" and hire a pound master to- catch and imprison eyery animal running at large, to kill; every dog running in the "incorporated lim its" without a collar costing 'the owner from one to five dollars; to pay a police judge, and to pay a city attor ney a salary for stirring up all sorts'of trouble in the neighborhood so he 'can get a fee. Cau any man tell ua what advantage it will be to any taxpayer to incorporate? .. ' . , The move is designed to fill the pock' ets of those who have nothing and ruin those who, by honest industry, have made comfortable homes. It will reduce tne value of property 50 per cent within incorporate limits. No man of sense will invest, in' property where be is subject to the whims and malice of a board of alderman and other officers intent only on lining their own pockets. Look at. tbe history of New York, where Boss Tweed robbedltbe city of fifty millions, voted into jthe treasury by irresponsible foreigners and hoodlums. Look at Portland, where excessive and unnecessary taxation has reduced the value of property 50 per cent. Our large cities are the centers of corruption. There do vagabonds congregate and taere rests tbe ful crum of the lever that will eveutually overthrow the government. Every In corporated town is a nest egg which it is hoped will grow intoacity to feather the nests of those who are too lazy to work for an honest livings jU., ..-"-V Are not our taxes now unnecessarily exorbitant? We work hard the year round aud tbe tax gatherers come for more money than we make on the farm. Incorporate, aud we may ' as well turn over everything we have to the authorities aud leave the country. M. Sue A. Farewell Entertaisuient. The K. of P. lodge ot Hood River gave a farewell entertainment and. supper, on the evening of. the lOtl), to their brother knight, J. H.

The Youth's Companion has just published a calendar for 1895 which is a work of art indeed, three works of art iii one. Scenes typical of three sea sons of the year, winter, slimmer, au tumn, are shown. The first picture represents.a mother and son pausing in their walk iu a snowy field, across which a rabbit is running, much to the amusement of tbe boy. The artist in the summer scene has pictured three children rowing down a winding river; and were it not for the apples "winch fill the pun in her arms, one would scarcely imagine that the graceful girl in'. the third picture was typical of au tumn. Around the pictures are grouped the monthly calendars, tied togetner by ribbons. This attractive calendar aud a full prospectus for. 1895 will be sent free upon application, to any one considering a subscription to the Com panion. From no other paper can so much entertainment and instruction be obtained for so little money (only 1.75 a year). , If you subscribe now you will receive the paper until January 1, 1895, and for a full year from that date, in cluding, the 'ihanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's double numbers. The Youth's Companion, Boston, Mass. i' '"-. , . DIED. " In Hood River valley, November IP, 1894, William Lyon, aged 81 years. Deceased was the father of E. E. Lyon, with whom be bas lived siir e he came here from Illinois, in April, 1892. Mr. Lyon was born iu Adanip, Mass., and when a young man went to the Western Reserve, iu Ohio, when that country was yet a wilderness. Ee followed farming most of his life. Late ly he bas been iu poor health, which ended iu paralysis, after which he last ed but 33 hours. He was buried Tues day, afrl:30 p. m., in K. of P. ceine- Everyday Law. " , Herewith are the most important laws, succinctly stated, that touch the needs of the average business man. An observance of them, says a trade jour nal, will enable one to avoid many mis takes that may be serious and steer the innocent from many pitfalls that may be calamitous. . They contain, in few words, the essence of a large amount of legal verbiage,' not always very intel ligible: i Each individual in a partnership is responsible for the whole amount of the debts of the firm, except ,in cases of "special" partnership. . Contracts made on Sundays cannot be enforced. ' A contract made with a minor is void. ,A contract made with a lunatic (or with one who has a general reputation forvreakmindedness) is void. ... The lat ter' case . must, however,; be clearly established. , The act of one partner binds all the other partners. It is a fraud to conceal a fraud. No consideration Is sufficient in law if it be illegal in its nature. (Many "failures" are upset because of this law.) A receipt for money is not always conclusive. An agreement without consideration is void. , The law compels no one to do impos sibilities. (This must be liberally con strued.) ' . " Ignorance of the law excuses no one. Note especially the following, as af fecting the giving and taking of notes: - .A note; made on Sunday is void. ; A note made by a minor is void. A note obtained by fraud from a per son in a state of intoxication cannot be collected. (This js a corroUary to the law governing contracts with the weak- minded.) Notes bear interest only when so stated. If a note is lost or stolen it does not release the maker; he must pay it if the consideration for which it was given and the amount can be proved. "" Signatures made with a lead pencil are good in law. The maker of an "accommodation'! note (one for which he has received no consideration, having lent his name and credit for the' accommodation of the holder) is not bound to the person accommodated, but is bound to all other parties, precisely as if there was a good consideration. If the maker of- a check or draft has changed his residence the holder must use "due diligence" to find him. Checks or drafts must be presented for payment without "unreasonable delay." Ignorance or oversight of or wilful inattention to these fundamental in junctions is the frequent source of an noying and expensive litigation. Sunflower Seed for Fowls. -The mammoth Russian sunflower has but one bud at the top, which, when half grown, turns upside down, which completely protects its seeds from those little depredators, the En glish' sparrow and the yellow ( birds, that are so fond of it. For this reason poultrymen should plant nothing but mammoth Russian variety. All who raise poultry should have a supply of sunflowers for their fowls, who should begin to feed on them as soon as the seeds are fully matured. They. .will produce four times as much nutriment for fowls to the square acre as Indian corn, and are better suited to the health of the fowls than any gra'n. Bend down a few of the stalks a few tiilies a week and let the fowls pick them out; it will be a good healthy employment for them. In addition to the supply of food they offer, they afford a shade from the heat in summer, which is very desirable Single, heads of the mammoth Rus sian sunflower measure from' 16 to 24 inches In diameter. The. seeds fatten poultry and give, them blight, lustrous plumagej which indicates a healthy condition. It is the most remarkably productive food known, and can be raised cheaper than corn. ' It Is ac knowledged to be an article of value wherever .grown. Coleman's Rural World. , . .
