Tbis is Thanksgiving day, a day ob served throughout our land by gen erous hospitality and charity and good dinners. Hood River is a church go In community, and today the good I'eople of our valley will heed the ad vice of our chief executive; they will cease from all labor and assemble at their places of worship and give thanks for the many blessings vouchsafed to us as a community and as a., nation. Hood Rirer lias much to be thankful for In this yer of 1898. Good health has prevailed among us; our young men who have gone to war have been spared from (Unease and the enemy's bullets; our crops have Wen bountiful; our markets fair; lal-or has been well rewarded: everything has tended to make us a happy and contented people. We can give to our less fortunate neighbors with a willing hand and be happy in the consciousness of well doiug. - ' D. M. Khoules of North Yakima writes to Ranch and Range bis knowl edge of the codlin moth. He has made a close study of this pest, having in view tbe planting of a large orchard, and has reached the conclusion arrived at by many of our Hood River orchard lsts, that the time to spray is after the apple Is formed, and keep spraying at intervals while warm weather lasts. He says: My observations lead me to the fol lowing conclusions: In the vicinity of North Yakima there is but one brood of the codlin moth, and that is a con tinuous one from about June 15th to November 1st. What I mean by that is tbat there is no day between about the dates named that the Insect cannot lie found in a badly Infested orcbard.ln all stages from the egg to the matured moth. By close daily Inspection in a badly infested orchard from the time of fruit bloom forward I found the first tiny ' worm, apparently just hatched and beginning to work his way into the apple on the 16th day of June, and on November 2d I found worms at work on apples in my orchard less than one-sixteenth of an inch long and prob ably not more than two or three days old at most. Occasional! v we hear some onesav that our town should have sidewalks. Others again say that the beauty of the town would be spoiled if we had side walks, that the streets are too billy, and the hteps that would be necessary every hundred feet or so would be a nuisance. 'The Glacier would like to see some provision made to light he streets at night, but would be opposed to putting property owners to tbe ex tense of laying wooden sidewalks. There are only a few days in the year when sidewalks are really needed. Generally, as soon as it quits raining our streets are dry. A plank walk along tbe state road as far out as tbe school house is badly needed, however. Children going to school should not be compelled to wade muddy roads while lumber is cheap and the expense of building a plank walk would not be great, i - J. H. Ackerman. state school super intendent elect, at a recent teachers' Institute In Benton county, produced a new idea for the arrangement of the grade system in the public schools of Oregon. He would do tfWay with the present ten-grade system and replace it with a series of three grades, requiring pupils to fully complete the work in each grade before advancing to the next, and at the completion of the third grade, requiring pupils to pass an examination for a county diploma that would enter them to the higher schools of the state. Mr. Ackerman'says such a system has proven successful in sev eral of tbe states and Is already being tried in a number of the public schools of Oregon. A bill will be introduced in1 the Washington legislature to compel ev ery ablebodied man over 21 to vote at general elections or pay a poll tax of $10. Such a law is needed in every state; The law should also provide a fine for not voting at the primaries. The Oregoniau is making prepara tions to issue on a grander scale than ever its mammoth New Year's edi tion. It is expected that it will be the best and most complete paper ever published on the coast. - A farmers' Institute, under tbe aus pices of the state agricultural college, will be held in Hood River March 3 and 4, 1899. ' The Portland Dispatch of Nov. 17th was a very creditable illustrated num ber, containing a write up of Umatilla county. The Hood River town election will be held Tuesday, December 6th. Attorney John L. Henderson proved to be the savior of a good many votes at the Ya'ley Improvement Co.'s meeting on Monday. Under the reve nue law all proxies are required to con tain a ten-cent revenue stamp. Mr. Henderson had been , at Tbe Dalles a few days before and laid in a supply of stamps. When it was discovered that stamps were .necessary on the 43 prox tee, Mr. Henderson was ahle to supply them; otherwise many shares would uot have been represented. The Frnnkton Institute. The teachers' institute at the Frank ton school house on the 19th inst. was one ot those occasions that so favorably impress visitors to the valley with our people and the high order existing so cially and intellectually. The wide awake, progressive teachers of the neighboring schools were present and their methods of teaching different branches was shown in carefully pre pared papers that called out words of approval or friendly criticism ironi tne other teachers. County Superintendent Gilbert pre sided, and bis interest in the cause and his well known ability demonstrated his eminent fitness for tbe position lie occupies. If t lie teachers of the rest of the county average up with those of this valley it Is a turtner tribute to ine work of the superintendent in building a standard of excellence, morally and socially, of the teachers of the county. Miss Anne C. Smith's paper fully answered the question, "Should we have music in our schools?" and I beard it well spoken of. H. L. Howe's subject, "Plants and their Children." I did not hear, but know that be did credit to himself with such a theme. R. R. Allard's article on the civil war was an epitome of the history of tbat struggle. He furnished each of his audience with a topical outline of his subject and explained in a very in teresting manner bis method of teach ing so as to not confuse tbe minds of the pupils with a confusion of battles and locations tbat would t as intelli gent as a pied article in a newspaper. If Mr. Allard is as good in other de- fiariments of school work as in teach ng history, his success' as a teacher is assured. E. D. Calkins endorsed tbe method of the teacher in a few well chosen, feeling words. "Reading in Primer Grades" was Eliza Stevens' theme, though she ex plained that it was not her forte, but her article convinced us that she could teach tbat one of the three R's. Nettie O. Hart gave a recitation that thrilled the martial spirit of others be side the old veterans present. Hester Howe's paper ou "Mental Aiithmetic" deserved tbe praise it re ceived from those who heard it. From ber appearance I supposed she was one of tbe pupils of the school, but her ar ticle placed uer rignt in line wyn tne teachers. Mella White's recitation was a fitting close to the work of the teachers on tbe occasion. Her articulation and enun ciation was so good that, though she spoke in a low tone; every word was distinctly beard. Her manner was earnest but perfectly natural, and there was an entire absence ot stage ertect. M. P. Isenberg spoke on the subject, "The Relation of tbe Flag to the Pub lic Schools," after which the flag was raised and saluted by the school. An excellent dinner was served in the lower room, and the conduct of tbe pupils of the Franklon School during the entire day was creditable alike to pupils and teachers. The presence of tbe patrons of the district was an ex planation of the excellent reputation of the school. Tbe day will be long and pleasantly remembered. suc.n meetings between teachers,' patrons and pupils will result in mutual advan tage to all. The parents will have greater respect and appreciation of tbe teachers. Tbe teachers ,will feel en couraged and the pupils will realize the importance of learning by the unit ed interest manifested in their behalf. T.J. C.

" : ( The endowment of the blacks with ihe full right of suffrage was the great est mistake ever made in our political history. It has only brought trouble to them and increased beyond measure the political difficulties ot tbe country. Since the error is now seen in its re sults, it may as well be frankly con fessed. It mocks the negroes with be stowal of a franchise which the masses of tbem will not be perm i ted to exer cise, and, in fact, are unfit to exercise, and brings on a race war in which they will In every case be trodden down. Since tbis Is the demonstrated result, there is no need to deceive ourselves about it. Abstention of the blacks from politics, and in particular from combinations to elect persons of their own race to office, is necessary alike for their safety and for the public peace; for tbe whites will not submit to negro government. , No-To-Bao for Fifty Cents.

Upon talking with a number of school pupils, bright youths though they are, I found that they were dense ly ignorant on many common affairs of tbe day. There is good excuse for it, It seems, because the boys to keep up witli their classes are obliged to spend much of their time outside of school hours in study. What spare time tbey do have they naturally want to devote to play and recreation. As a conse quence, they neglect to read very much about tbe busy affairs and questions of the day. There certainly ought to be, in high schools at least, classes made up to read the great newspapers and magazines and discuss tbe great ques tions continually presenting' them selves. The best informed men in the country today are those who closely fol low tbe daily newspapers, and discuss tbe great questions continually present ing themselves, and four years of close newspaper reading will place a man in many respects in advance of the col legiate Who neglects the same during bis college term.

Kahuna's Intelligent Dog. One of the celebrities of Kalama to which strangers visiting that town rarely fail to secure an introduction Is a 10-year old dog, who is endowed with sagacity in proportion to his years. He knows enough, if a nickel is given him, to take it to the butcher shop and buy a piece of meat, enough for a square meal. To the residents of the town the trick has become stale, and they do not give tbe old dog hs many nickels as they used to. But when a stranger comes to town, the dog at once attaches himself to him, and follows him about till some old resident tells him what the animal is looking for. ' Of course a nickel is forthcoming at once and the brute trots off to the butcher shop and buys his dinner. Strangers do not visit Kalama every day, but the dog wants a dinner that often and wants it badly. A short time ago, having no nickel, he went to the- butcher shop, where he had been dealing, and inti mated tbat he desired a piece of meat. The butcher cut oft a bunk of meat and tossed it to him, and he started hastily off with It. The butcher called him back and demanded a nickel, and finding the dog bad none, kicked him out of the place. Since that time when the animal has a nickel he patronizes another butcher shop. . .
