The long-talked of dituli for the west side of Hood River valley is at last an accomplished fact. The ditch and flume of the Valley Improvement Co. were finished last Saturday, June zo, ioar. auu me water is now uuwiiig through the streets of Hood River. The ditch is 11 miles long, with 6 miles of flume, and will carry 2000 inches of water. Jt will water all the ivest side of the valley lying east of the Belmont and Christian churches and north of Belmont, embracing about 10,000 acres. The work cost $28,000. The stock is all held by citizens of Hood River, ex cepting about half a dozen shares. The first organization of the com- pany was effected August 30, 18&5,wtien the following agreement was signed: This agreement, made this 30th day of Au gust, 1895, between C. A. Bell, L. K. Morse, J.

Ditch companies had been organized befo'rfe; Iq bring water from Hood river through the yalley to the town, but none ever - materialized. For fifteen years or more the subject of a ditch had been agituted and company after com- pany Incorporated, only to go to pieces at the levying of the first assessment. It was left to these seven men to begin tiie work aiid carry to completion au enterprise that will be of more lasting benefit than anything ever attempted by our citizens. September 9, 1895, these sevea men filed articles incor porating the Valley Improvement Co. '1 hough none of them had money to burn, they resolved that Hood River chould have -a ditch. They made sur veys, secured right of way, advertised for bids to begin the work, sold stock, and talked ditch till people began to eee they meaut business and that the great Want of the community was about to be filled. Frank Davenport early Interested himself in the work and was given (he contract to build the flume. He soon moved a saw mill to the place of beginning, secured the timber and began operations. To Mr. Davenport, more than any other man, it may be said, we owe the success of the enter prise. His energetic push of the work inspired confidence and gave an im petus to the work that never lagged 1 till the last nail was driven, June 26, 1897. C. A. Bell, Capt. A. S. Blowers and Judge L. Henry gave their time and money to help the ditch to com pletion.' H. F. Davidson, as secretary, rendered valuable services. Frank Davenport sublet the building of the flume to W, H. Bishop and S. Cox, carpenters, and these men are deserv ing of praise for their excellent work and the dispatch with which it was accomplished. Davenport Bros, also had the contract for building the ditch and sublet to the following parties: , M.M.Davenport, Fred Howe.M.F.Loyj K. Udell, O. L. Stranahan Gibbons & Stranaban, John Purser, VM. P. Isen berg, Kiser Bros., A.K. Isenberg, Scott Boorman, Hartley & Hanna, Alfred In galls. Charles Ross had charge of me masting. ; Of those who built the flume, the following are residents 0? Hood River and stockholders Jn the company: VV. H. Bishop, S. Cox, Capt. J. H. Dukes, . Wm. Lochman, Isaac Nealelgh, P. A. Suyder, Marshal Isenberg, Wm. Isen berg, Walter Thompson, John McCoy and Levi Monroe. W. H. Bishop and Capt. Dukes were the only ones that commenced with the work and staid with it till the flume was completed. xue muiim micampmeuT. -The Oregou National Guard arrived at Hood River... Monday, coming" by special train , frotfl-: 'Portland and ' by the regular 9 o'clock train and boat from The DallesThe troops comprise the following: Second regent and detachment of the hospital corps; Third battalion and detachment of the hos pital corps; companies B and F, First regiment; battery A; troop B; engineer corps and signal corps.; .The boys funde a good appearance us they j marched through our streets on their ! way to. Camp Jackson. Old veteraus of the civil, war, of whom there are a good many In Hood River, were struck with the soldierly bearingof the troops, aud were reminded that the young men who went out in '61 to fight the battles for the Union looked just about the same. , If occasion should call these meu Into active service, we feel as' sured, from what we have seen of them, they would make a good record. Camp Jackson is an ideal place for encampment, and the boys are well pleased with their quarters. The tents stand among the pines and oaks in the northeastern part of Belmont townsite, and the drill ground to the south, 80 or 100 acres, is ample. . A fine view of Mt. Hood is had from the camp. The Improvement Cc.'s ditch supplies water iu abundance, which is carried through the camps in flumes. Springs and wells In the neighborhood furnish good drinking water. The camp is well provisioned, and everything seems to be in order for the truops to enter upon an active campaign, if it was necessary. NOTES OF THE CAMP. ' Mrs. Howells' lunch tent is well pa tronized. . James Hoag is a member of the Wasco company. The guard house had two occupants Wednesday ingot. Mayor Blowers was the guest of Gen. JieeDeonrnursuay. Niekelsen's refreshment stand is do ing a good business. The rain laid the dust and the roads are now in fine shape. A good many "Si Kleggs" are to be found among the recruits. Visitors from the Dalles and Port land are plentiful in camp. The small boys are reaping a harvest peddling cuernes and berries.- Liverymen are ready to exclaim, "If this is war may we never have peace!" Some of the boys went out foraging Wednesday, and discovered a "still house." Clyde Faulkner, a former Hood Riv er boy, is on duty as a member ot Co. A, from Roseburg. Colonel Jackson, U. S. A., after whom the camp is named, is the guest or the encampment. The cavalry only were out on drill Thursday morniug, beiug too wet- un der foot for the infantry. Company A of Wasco is well officered and one of the best appealing compa nies in the Third regiment. . Battalion drill at 6:15 a. in.; guard mount at 8:45 a. 111.: company drill at 4 p. m.; dress parade at sunset. "Si Klegg" says next time he enlists he will line the "calvary" or enlist as an aid-de-camp to the getieral. Rev. J. T. Merrill has two brothers in the Wasco company, and S. L. Tay lor has a son in the same company. Joe Purser's front yard is pretty well occupied with refreshment booths, the shelter 01 the pines attording a cool re treat. ' Capt. Blowers had the contract for furnishing provisions for the first day in camp, Hanna & Hartley furnishing tne ueer. At dress parade, Tuesday evening, the officers were just one hour forming tne line, but tney got tliere Iiualiv in good shape. , ' .. W. E. Neffis on the grounds with hie photographing outfit and is secur ing some good views of the camp and the companies and battalions at drill. The families of J. R. Nickelsen and Grant Evans are in camp in Nickel- sen's field, just across the road from tne encampment. O. J. Clum was the first to fall under the care of Lieutenant and Assistant Surgeon Brasilia, in command of the hospital corps. Clum was a victim of poison oak. Ram Blowers complained the first day that lie didn't get enough to eat. They had drawn rations for only one day, and be said they cooked and ate it all at the first meu I. The rain Thursday morning did 'no damage in camp, but was rather en joyed by the boys. Some of the booths covered only with .brush were not helped much Jy the rain. Joe Purser's cow, contrary to rules and regulations laid down in general orders, strayed into camp Tuesday evening. The hospital corps had milk m their cotlee that eveuing. Around Joe Purser's house, Sunday, was piled ammunition enough, if it had been ignited, to have blown out of existence all the in habitants of Hard Scrabble and its strawberry patcnes. . General orders state that ''Soldiers are, and should be addressed as, men ; tne word "Hoys' is not round in tne drill regulations." This is probably intended to distinguish them from the Grand Army boys." Officers and men are' loud in their praises of this beautiful site for the en campment. The scenery, with Mounts Hood and Adams In plain view, is magnificent. The road between camp and town, 24 miles, in one of the best pieces of road in the state. Some of the Hood River boys, who belong to the hospital corns of the Third regiment, experienced iumrd duty for the first time Saturday niirht. Henry McGuire, while on duty, lost his bearings aud was lound bv the relief wandering several hundred yards distant from his post in the open field, A cavalryman was injured at drill. Tuesday morning, by his horse falling ou him. He was carried on a stretcher to the hospital tent, and while the sur geons were binding up his wounds, Clum, who was assisting, fainted aud fell prostrate over the wounded man. The Injured man belongs to troop B, and was not dangerously hurt. A recruit of Company Q, while on guard Monday night, was awakened from pleasant dreams by the tramp of soldiers .and the clanking or sabers. when he shouted. "Who comes there?" Grand rounds," - replied an officer. To hades with the grand rounds," said "ssi Klegg;" "1 thought it was the third relief. - Dallas learned to give the proper sa ute to an officer last Sunday. He was lying 011 a soldier's lounge the ground when one of the general's stall-passed by. He threw up his right hand and saluted, as he thought, very gracefully.' The officer ordered him to bis feet, commanded him to take the position of a soldier, button up his blouse and brace up, and then gave him instruc tions how to make the proper salute. liood River Falls. Wednesday, June 23d it was my pleasure, in company with my class in the M E. Sunday' school of Hood River to the number of sixteen, to take a day in a visit to the falls of Hood River and the enjoyment of a rare pic nic dinner under the shade of the firs and oaks near by. The company was delightful and the cheer rare indeed and will be long remembered. - The place is a marvel of beauty and grandeur combined. Few places in the wonderful mountains of Oregon are more attractive. The ride to it is a de lightful one of two or three hours over a region of charming diversity and great beauty of landscape, always front ing and constantly Hearing Mt. Hood. Once there, the rush and swirl of the crystal waters through their basaltic channels over beds of great bowlders, their leaps down snowy cascades, their subsidence into great glassy pools in which the trout glide and flash; the timbered and rocky mountains that sweep away and tower upwards to wards the distant snowy pinnaeles; the music of singing breezes iu the tree tops, combine into a whole of scenic beauty, sublimity, poetry and music that has few parallels within the circle of our knowledge. Add to these the presence of a happy company of young people, or the calm contemplation of more advanced life, or both together, and one has an occasion ot pleasure in deed. , H. K. Hines. Teachers' Institute. A normal institute will be held at The Dalles, beginning July 12th, and continuing four weeks, under the" di rection of the county school superin tendent, aided by Pror. John ' Gavin and Asst. Prin. J. S. Landers of The Dalles schools as instructors. There being but a' small institute fund on hand, it will be .necessary to collect $2.50 from. each person In attend ance, regardless of the number of days present. This step has not been taken with out advising with the majority of the teachers of the county, besides others who wisdi to avail themselves of the advantage of a summer school at home, thus reducing expenses to the min imum. ' Classes will be formed iu each of the common brunches as well as those studies necensary to obtain a state di ploma or state life diploma. The state text book will be used in each brauch of study. . , : . - The regular quarterly examination of teachers will follow the institute, and will begin Wednesday, August 11th, at 1 o'clock p. rn. ;.

Welds will propagate tins peach, which cannot helo but nrove a valu able addition to horticulture. All those who want dental work of any kind done in good first-class shape will do well to call and see Dr. E. T. Cams and get his prices. Any one wanting to know what kind of a work man Dr. Cams is, can find out by ask ing bis nearest neighbor, as his work is well known throughout the valley and his prices are as reasonable as any den tist in Wasco county. Plates, either upper or lower, just as cheap as the cheapest. - Mr, and Mrs. W. J. Campbell drove to The Dalles, Tuesday, in their buggy, where they expect to visit for a few days. .

When the party got to the top they found that the first parties to register were two men who had went up from Government camp, having preceeded them only two hours.
