FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1S97.
The resuk of the elections in several
of the most important Eastern states
on Tuesday tthow great gains for the
democrats. , This Is the off year, but
both the great parties put in their best
licks, mid the battle, especially in
Ohio, called out a full vote. The re.
suitor these elections make it pretty
certain that the democrats will control
the next . house of representatives.
Gold democrats are not voting the re
publican ticket this year. Returns in
Wednesday's Oregoulan tell the story,
. as follows. , '
Van Wyck, Tammany candidate, is
elected mayor of Greater New York
receiving 885,181 votes to 149,519 for
Low and 101,823 for Tracy. Democrats
also carry the state.
Ohio and Maryland are claimed by
both parties.. " .
In Massachusetts, Wolcott, rep , is
re-elected governor by 00,000 majority.
Iowa elects Shaw, rep.(governor, by
17,000 plurality, and republicans car
ried the legislature.
Nebraska ; was carried by the
fusionlsts by 10,000 to 20,000 plurality.
Kentucky is democratic by 15,000.
Populists carried Colorado.
Kansas is claimed by fusionlsts and
republicans. '
Virginia Is democratic by 60,000.
South Dakota went republican. "
Pennsylvania, 145,000 republican
plurality. I ,
The comnilssloner of pensions asks
for a law that will debar women who
may hereafter marry old soldiers from
ever receiving a pension. Some of tb6
wives of these old soldiers may become
widows and be on the pension list to
good old age. There is said to be a few
widows of soldiers of the wa
. of 1812 now on the pension list, each
receiving as high as $8 a month. If
the old soldiers of the late war are al
lowed to keep on marrying, some of
their widows may be drawing pensions
60 years hence. This would be awful
f The surest way "to prevent this would
be to make it unlawful for any enlisted
man during, the lute war to marry,
This would save 'the pension list from
being burdened with their widows 50
years fioai now and save more for the
widows and progeny of the officers.
v- 1 he fifth annual meeting of the
. Northwest Fruit Growers' association
will be held in-Portland, commencing
the second 'I ue8day iu January and
continuing three days. The member
. nhip of this association extends
throughout the Pacific northwest, and
fruit growers from Oregon, Washing
ton, Idaho and British Columbia will
attend. As the date of holding the an
nua) meeting of the Oregon state horti-
cultural pociety is also the second Tues-
day In January, Oregon fruit growers
will lie able to attend the business
- meetings of both organizations.and the
general programme will of course be of
a character Interesting to all fruit
growers. :'
The great wheat crop of the Inland
Empire has fcjfeen successfully gathered,
and long trains' loaded with the golden
grain are being hauled to tide water.
'lhe wealth now pouring into the grain
producing districts is already having a
good effect on all lines of trade through
out the northwest. The mines of Alas
'i ka and others jiearer home will soon
vv'..oomnieu(ie to draw thousands of people
. irom the Jiast and Europe, and un
less all signs fail, the Pacific northwest
will soon be experiencing a season of
, prosperity unexampled in Its history.

answers your editorial comment of me
and tells us when he brought the lirnt
subsoil plow to Hood River. Now, if
he brounht his plow in 1894, 1 will con
cede to him the honor of bringing t he
first suliwil plow to Hood River; but I
will not accept his criticism on the une
of drain tile and buUhoII plows In Hood
River valley. i
He thinks both are useless there.
Well, in the words of another, "Wise
men will diiier;" hence, if Mr. Wheeler
and I can't agree on this point, we
might botli be called wise. He says
me unaer drainage and triable cuarac
ter of the soil, such as that on the pla
teau in ooa luver valley, needs no
drainage nor subsoil plowinir. Well.
will confess that the plateau on the
west side of Hood river, for a few miles
south of town, may not need either, as
man seer ion is well supplied with rocks,
sand and wind, so much so that water
will soon dry up in the snrlmr: hence
irainage may not tie necessary there,
but subsoil plowing is beneficial every
where, in all soils and ail climates
wiiere veireiaiion is ra sed, nut. out
side of the plateau referred to (which
we concede is the strawberry belt of
nooa jtuver vaney), we find the soil
underlaid with a clay subsoil. This Is
true of nearly all the foot hills south
and west of town and almost the en
tire east side of Hood River valley.
This Is the best armla land in th val
ley, and it is tliia class of soil that needs
deep plowing and good drainage..
Mr. Dethman'8 orchard, on the East,
side,- which won the medal at your
last fair, has a clay subsoil, and by in
vestigation we find that the hest. nnnlp
districts everywhere have a heavy soil,
underlaid with a strata of olav nrl
sand, and it is this kind of fruit land
that needs good drainage and deep
plowing. Experiment stations and
progressive fruit growers everywhere
testify to the same, and even urce Hl
uinming ii roiling lanu. ir 1 wa
anie, nnancially, 1 would place a drain
of 3-inch tile between each row of trees
in rny apple orchard.
Bid. Wheeler states that thorough
cultivation retains moisture. Quite
true, and the deeper you cultivate the
more moisture you create and retain.
Do not understand me as advocating
the Use of a subsoil plow on au old or
chard near the trees, unless root prun-
ins isuesireu; nut in starting a young
orchard your soil can not be plowed too
deep. .
Yes, Bro. Wheeler, I'll give you the
honor of bringing the first subsoil plow
to Hood River, but I'd like to insist on
you to not let it rust. You had better
loan it to your neighbors who are start
ing young orchards; they will never
regret having used it. The advan
tages of drain tiling are so numerous
that I will only mention a few. It
preserves the fertility of the soil and
prevents surface washing, which is aj
loss of your most valuable soil. It car-1
ties away the water which is intnrinna !
to the roots of our fruit trees during at
least six months of our wet season,
hence the life of manv a rre la n voJ.
and it assists the soil to breathe the air
or lire. ,

uciij grower in ttood Itiver valley,

in no way discouraged Captain Coe or
R. R. Thompson. They immediately
built the steamer Colonel Wright, after
receiving the contract to transport
army supplies to Fort Walla Walla and
other interior posts. The Col. Wright
was the first steamer to navigate the
waters of the Columbia and its trib
utaries above the dalles, and after she
bad gone into such service her owners
joined the combined companies and on
December 29, 18G0, formed the Oregon
Steam Navigation Co.

Lawrence Coe Dead. '
Lawrence S. Coe, brother of Capt.
H. C. Coe, of Hood River, died in San
Francisco recently, aged about 65 years.
Deceased came to Oregon from New
York in the early '50s with his father,
Nathaniel Coe, who was the first gov
ernment official of the postal service
in the Northwest. Those were the
days of the rugged history of Oregon,
and there are now comparatively few
left who lived in the territory when
ttie sturdy pioneer with his sous came
from t lie distant, East to the wilds of
Oregon to found new homes,
Later, with R. R. Tompson, lie built
the steamer Venture at the Cascades.
It was intended to steam the vessel up
to the dalles and then take it overland
to Celilo for the purpose of running on
the Upper Columbia and Snake rivers.
The trail trip was to tie made under
the management of Captain Coe, hut
through some misunderstanding the!
' Water Rights.
Editor Glacier: At the meeting
of the directors of the Valley Improve

forms of perpetual , right deeds were
presented. Alter mature consideration
one used by the Bear River Irrigation
company of Utah was adopted after be
ing materially modined. This was
considered the best, as it sets forth the
rights or each party more definitely
than the other forms presented, and

The Old Hand Press.
I love to haunt the press room of a modern
- city sheet,
And watch the flying cylinders, as folded,:
trim and neat,
The perfect papers finished by some mystic
force, It seems-
So stranjtely hidden in their course flow out
in endless streams.
But as I view the busy scene, my thoughts
will often fly
Back to a little printing shop within the town
where I, ,
A printers devil, dreaming of my future
creiit sncfsH..
On Friday afternoons would Ink the old hand
press.
In that far time and place 'twas not our for
tune to enjoy
Self-inking presses, but we had a real self-ink-ing
boy.
And 1 recall how men who worked the old
press would oppose , ,
My stopping In my task to Ink some other
fellow's nnw
On every press-day afternoon, the farmers, In
With others' used to wait about to get their
nftwa rprl hrl.
The story of their lives, their Joys and their
unities
Was in that paper printed on the old hand
press.
O. mighty flying cylinders, whirl onward in
your might,
And let the torch of learning send abroad Its
blessed liirht.-
It has been truly spoken that a little drop of
Falling, like de"r, upon a thought, can make
the millions think.
'Tis recollection's subtle charm that prompts
Old things with grace 'tis "distance lends

I'd like to toil once more beside the old hand
