FRIDAY, MARCH 12, 1S97.
Mr. R. O. Evans is circulating a pa
er for signatures among tbe business
men and others of the town, wherein
' lie agrees to act as night watchman
from April 1st to October 81st, for the
sums each person may subscribe, to be
paid monthly. He is meeting with
good success, and our town will have
a night watchman during the summer
months. By these volunteer contribu
tions there will be no necessity to levy
a tax. Now let tbe council take steps
toward purchasing buckets, hooks aud
ladders, and provide a bandy place to
store tht in, nd our town will have a
good start toward fire protection.
Ex-Senator Dolpli died in Portland,
March 10th. His death resulted from
blood poisoning, which necessitated
' amputation of hjs leg above the knee,
two days before his death, from the ef
fects of which he never rallied. His
age was 61. ' Mr. Dolph served two
terms In the United States senate from
Oregon, and as a leading republican
ranked with the most prominent men
of bis party.
Governor Lord has appointed H. W.
Corbett United States senator to serve
until the legislature elects. The ap
pointment Is a good one and should
meet tbe approval of the great majority
of bis party. But being a gold man, it
is doubtful if the free-silver majority
in tbe senate will admit bim under his
present credentials. Mr. Corbett serv
ed a term in the senate from Oregon
from 1807 to 1873.
The Kumpter News is a new paper,
published at Sumpter, Baker county,
by F. J. Halloek & Co. It is a bright
paper and gives the news of what it
claims to be tbe richest mining coun
try on earth.
Hood River Berries.
v " Dalles Chronicle.
In thiee months from now-
the
strawberry crop of Hood River will be
n full blast, aud the wealth of crimson
ItiHi'iousness from that delightful
locality will gladden the eyes and
palates of tbe citizens of Chicago,
Omaha, St. Paul, St. Louis and the
mining centers of Colorado, Montana
and Idaho.
The first berry shipments were made
from Hood River in 1889, by Geo. T.
Prather, we believe, they being sent to
Montana. The returns were so satis
factory that Mr. Prather, and perhaps
one or two others, shipped all the ber
ries they could get and many small
patches were set out, with the view of
supplying this demand the following
year. It was at once claimed by many
that tbe market would be over-stocked,
and that the price of berries would drop
to a point where it would not be profit
able to grow them. Yet the supply
never equaled tbe demand.' Tbe same
-ry was raised every year as the patches
liecame more numerous and larger, but
when Inst year two carloads a day were
ling shipped, and the demand was
for yet other .carloads, even the most
nronounued Dessi mists auit their croak
ing, and conceded that with the ship
ping qualities possessed by the "Clarke
Heefliings," the market was practically
unlimited.
This year the shipments will be larger
than ever, and so will the acreage, and
it will not be at all surprising if three,
and even four, carloads a day are ship
ped.
Strawberry growing is like ail other
agricultural - pursuits; bard work.
There are hoeing and weeding and
picking, but there is money in it, and
it is, while perhaps tiresome work, as
pleasant as any on tbe tarm. It has
one feature that many other farming
Dursults lack, and that is it navs: and
it is of such a nature that a person of
small capital can engage in it. A few
acres or land is all that is required, and
now that water is available these are
easily acquired.
The plants set in the' fall yield from
half to two-thirds of a crop the next
year, and full crops for two years after
mat. a wen cultivated acre or ground
will yield from $200 to $250 over and
above all expenses of growing and har
vesting, the principal expense being
the picking and the cost ot boxes and
crates. To a man with a large family
of little folks it offers peculiar Induce
ments, furnishing a light employment
for the children that enables them to
assist materially in meeting tbe ex
penses of tbe family.
Without the strawberry the develop
m nt of Hood River valley would have
iieen much slower than It has been, for it
furnishes the money that sets out and
cares for the apple trees, for which that
section is famous.
To the roan of small means, who is
industrious, Hood River offers peculiar
inducements, and of course better ones
to those who have money to handle
larger areas of fruit lands. It is the
most beautiful valley by far in the
state, and in a few years will be one
vast orchard. We predict thtit inside
of seven years Hood River will ship
200,000 bushels of apples, and it will
not be long before strawberries are
shipped almost in train load lots.
The growing of orchards requires un
limited patience, and considerable
money, and fortunately there are hun
dreds now in Hood River section who
have about passed their period of
trouble and self-denial, and will soon
reap that reward which is said to al
ways come to those who wait.
The Country Paper.
The late Judge David Davis of Illi
nois, at one time senator from that
State, paid the following tribute to
the country paper:
Each year every local paper gives
from $500 to $5000 in free lines for the
lienefit of the community in which it
is located. No other agency can or
will do this; th editor, in proportion
to his means, does more for his town
than any other man, and iu all fairness
he ought to tie supported not because
you may happen to like him or admire
his writing, out because a local paper is
the best advertisement a community
can make. It may not be crowded
with great thoughts, but financially it
is more ot a benefit tnan botn teacher
and preacher. Today editors of local
papers do more wprk for less pay than
any man on earth. Patronize your lo
cal paper not as a charity but as an in
vestment. . Wasco County Taxes for 1897.

The Mt, Hood Toll Road.
Mt. Hood, Or., March 1, 1897. Ed
itor Glacier: If you will give us space
in your paper for a reply to Mr. Wood's
letter to W. A. Langille regarding the
Mount Hood toll road, we will give Mr.
Wood and the public in general the
facts of the case as regards the feelings
of tbe people of this part of Hood River
valley. ...
First, it is only a very few of the set
tlers that are interested in getting a
road over which they can travel to and
from their claims without paying toll.
Those principally interested are those
living in the Cascade forest reserve.
Perhaps they will not exceed thirty
families. It was understood by the
settlers here that they would not be
compelled to pay toll, and that toll was
only to be collected from tourists and
others who wished to visit the mount
ain. Settlers who have lived above the
toll bridge for seven years have never
been asKed for a cent of toll until last
July. So it is plain to see that toll
froul the settlers is anew thing. The
excuse for charging toll is that the set
tlers would not help repair the road,
'this statement is fulse and has no
foundation, as the settlers have never
refused to do work on tbe road when
asked. However, one or two were or
dered to work that failed to do so, but
when asked, like gentlemen, have never
failed to lend u hand, and often volun
teered to turn the water out of the
road. We also turned out in a body
and made a new grade just above the
bridge. This work alone amounts to
about two months' labor for one man,
and is there to show for itself whether
or not it is a benefit or a detriment to
the load. ' '
. Now, Mr. Wood, we will state to you
the actual facts in the case. The state
ment that we want to attack the stage
company and appropriate your prop
erty is false. What we do want is a
free road, as none of us are able to pay
tell. We have gone to work, gotten
out timbers, framed and raised abridge
of our own, and have petitioned the
county court for a road from the end of
the present county road, a distance of
about three miles through the upper
settlement., is there any crime in
this? If so, we fail to see it. The toll
bridge was carried out by high water
November 15, 189(1, since which time
the only way the people of the upper
settlement have bad of crossing the
river has been by means of a foot log.
About January 1, 1897, one of the res
idents of the settlement visited W, A.
Langille and tried to make some ar
rangement with bim in regard to help
ing bim put in a bridge, we doing our
part of the work and he to grant us the
use of the road.. Our representative
tailed to get any satisfaction, Air. lan
gille saying he did not own the prop
erty and could do nothing to compro
mise the matter till be could commu
nicate with Messrs. Ladd and Wood.
We waited one mouth for some word
from Mr. Langille, and hearing noth
ing, tooK what steps we have toward
building a bridge and getting a road to
and from our claims. After our bridge
was nearly all framed a letter was re
ceived from Mr. Langille, wishing to
compromise, saying he would be here
to consult about tbe matter. Mr. Lan
gille did come up here, but did not
come near any one about the road or
brlusre. He passed within a few rods
of where we were working, but did uot
stop or turn to the right or lett. in
the past year the Langille brothers
have acted in such a manner that it
has given tbe people, here the impres
sion that they either owned or held a
mortgage on this part of the country,
when the facts in tbe case are that they
haven't any rights here whatever,
They have interfered in the affairs of
the settlers oeyonri, tbe limit or their
rights or privileges, and they want to
distinctly understand that it is time to
call a halt m that direction, and trom
this date they are to confine themselves
strictly to their own affairs. We re
spect Messrs. Laaa and wood and ap
predate what vthey have done for the
good interests of the valley, and trust
this will open their eyes to the facts of
the other side or this road question.
We were compelled to take our present
course to secure an open and tree road.
and cannot see how, under the circum
stances, the present complications could
he avoided.
The following toll rates were kept
posted on the bridge gate after July,
1896:
Four-horse team, round trip.. 81 00
Four-horse team, one way..... ,. 76
Two-horse team, round trip 60
Two-horse team, one way 85
One-borse team, round trip 85

first put up, and were put up In place
of tbe first after the settlers kicked. Re

The Dying Prisoner.
In memory of John C. Vail, who died of
scurvy at Andersonville, Oa., August 2d, 1864.
" I am dying, comrade, dying.
Far away from friends and home; ,
In this rebel den I'm lying.
Suffering, starving, all alone.
If T had a drink of water.
. . If I had a piece of bread,
But to quench my thirst and hunger
Ere I'm numbered with the dead.
Oh! this loathsome, dreary prison,
Oh! this crnel rebel den,
Where our mothers' sons are lying,
Treated more like dogs than men.
' No warm shelter spread above us,
No green fields in which to range;
0 God grant that those who love us
Will compel them to exchange.
If I could see my mother, ,
Though npon the ground I He,
Mingled with each starving brother,
Twould not be so hard to die.
If I conld but get a letter.
If Borne news would only come, ".
Oh! I know I would get better,
. If I could but hear from Home."
And the brave and suffering soldier
Bowed his manly head and wept.
- On the cold ground of his prison,
Kre In death he calmly slept.
-
" Am I dreaming, comrade dreaming?
Surely some one called my name,
And I thought some one was coming
And would take ine home again.
Home! I think I'm going, comrade,
But somehow my sight is dim K'
And I see them coming nearer, " '
And I think I hear them sing.
Where's the flag onr old flag, comrade,
With It brave red, white and blue?
1 would tell those white-robed beings :
That I served my country true.
Nearer they are coming nearer!
I can see them plainly now -Bless
God! they are bringing water '
For my fevered lips and brow. ,
' 1 will thirst no longer, comrade,
For a river pure I see,
And beside its crystal waters
They have come to carry me.
Is It home? It seems more lovely
r Than the home that once was mineL ,
And the streets are like the starlight,
All so dazzlingly they shine.
There's a wide and waving meadow,
Where in peace I'll rest and roam
Ob, thank (fod! they have exchanged me,
And I know I'm going bomel
There's no dark and dreary dead-line,
There's no rebel sentry there
For the Held seems wide and boundless,
And all things look bright and lair.
Farewell, comrade! I am going,
For the messengers have come,
, And I see clear waters flowing
' God be praised, I'm going home!"
