. C'oxey and Weaver.
v ". Monday was a red-letter day for the
v populists. "General" Jacob 8. Ooxey
' nd James B. Weaver spoke to a large
audience at the armory in the . after
toon. Both men took for the subject of
1 their speeches, "Tho Money Question."
ji Each talked for two hours, telling the
; people that no relief could be obtained
jr from the present state of affairs unless
J the populist party was put in full con
trol of the government. , ' i
j, "General" Coxey spoke principally
f In behalf of his non-interest bearing
bond scheme (paper money), and be-
lieved that the government should fur
; nish work for the unemployed by mak
ing public improvements; Ihe laborers
' to work by the day eight-hour days
"receiving as compensation $1.50, in
Jiis paper currency. This theory : of
his, he says, would make "good times"
und also settle the eight-hour question.'
His denunciation of the two old parties
and their leaders was extremely bitter.
I General ' Weaver took ihe platform
after Mr. Coxey roncluded his remarks, j
and urged the people to vote for men
who would secure the free and unlimit- j
ed coinage of silver at the mtio of 101
to 1 independent of the wishes of any
foreign nation showing the benefits
that would result to the laboring
people by the enactment of a law au
thorizing free coinage. He holds the
great men of the nation in high esteem,
and made no personal attacks upon
any one. . ,
As to the soundness of the doctrines
expounded by the speakers we will
make no comment, leaving that to
those who heard him.
Judge Bennett -will speak at Hood
River on Wednesday, May 27lh.

The question of where the strawberrv
growers will uet their pickers hasn't
been settled yet. Hood River has the
reputation of putting a first class brand ,
of fruit on the market, and to keep up
this reputation the growers must have
pickers who will pick and pack the
fruit as it should be done. Both pick
ing and packing fruit is almost a trade
iu itself, aud it is not everyone that
can master the art. To let those who
intend coming here with the intention
of picking strawberries know what
they will be expected to do, Mr. A. B.
Jones, who in one of the most exten
sive strawberry growers in the valley,
asked us to publish the letter that ap
pears below.
Hood Riveh, Or., May 19, 1890. Alex. T
Gordon, Portland, Or., Dear Sir: Yours of the
15th was duly received. 1 have a number of
acres in berries, and shall need quite a num
ber of pickers. I have engaged some whites
and some squaws. Do not know how many
I shall need until the season commences, but
surely will need more than I have engaged' I
prefer whites, if I can get good ones. I have
had very poor Juck with tiiem for several rea
sons, First, we cannot depend on them all
through the season. They are liable to quit
when you need them the worst. And second,
it is hard to get them to pick and pack the
berries as we want them packed. There is no
reason why they cannot, but they will not. .
We pay one and a half cents per pound,
which is $1.50 for 100 boxes, for picking. The
pickers sort out the culls and put them in a
box by themselves, and the good ones by
themselves, packed carefully. We puy the
same for picking the culls so as to be sure to
have them kept out. If you want to pick and
will pack them as good as we have to have it
done, there Is no doubt but that you can get
plenty of chances to pick. Each one boawts
himself. Most of them live In tents. The
best way is to bring your tent and what few
dishes you may need, and sufficient bedding.
The rest tan be had here. We pay cash each
night if needed. It will be 10 or 12 days before
the season opens,although there are a few ripe
berries now. But it would be better to come
early, so you could make arrangements be
fore the season commences, for if we canuot
get whites or Indians, we will have to get Japs
and Chinamen, for when berries are ripe we
cannot wait for any one. It is by close pick
ing and cureful packing that Hood River has
wou her great reputation. By letting all who
think of coming know this you will confer a
favor on them as well as the berry growers.
Yours respectfully,
A. B. Jones.
