FRIDAY, JANUARY 3, 1902.
Our Population 861.
The Glacier has made its annual New
Year'g enumeration and finds the num
ber of people within the corporate lim
its of the tow n to be 861. This is a gain
of 110 over last year. It indicates a
healthy growth, with no boom. Many
predictions have been made placing our
population at 900 and above, but an ex
amination of last year's directory shows
a loss of nearly 200 people during 1901 ,
gome of whom are now living in the val
ley, while most of them have left the
country. " ,
The increased business of the town in
dicates unmistakably that the valley is
filling up much more rapidly than the
town. The postal receipts of the Hood
River post otlice for 1901 are (with De
cember approximated) $3,944.87, a gain
of $:!90.80 over the preceding year. These
receipts include post office box rent and
the sale of postage stamps.envelopesand
postal cards. The rural free delivery,
put into operation July 1, 1809, is now
supplying daily mail to 1000 people, al
most double the number at the time of
establishing the service. During the
mouth of December, 1901, the rural
mail carrier delivered on his route a to
tal of 11,800 pieces of mail matter. Dur
ing the corresponding month of 1900,the
total was 10,110, a gain for the month of
1,090. The rural free delivery.instituted
in Hood River, two years ago as an experi
ment, has undoubtedly come to stav.

amounted to $35,000, the apple crop, of
20,000 boxes, amounted to $25,000, and
other fruits must iiave brought in an
additional $5,000. The sales of cord-
wood during 1901 amounted to 6,836 cords,
worth nearly $20,000. The principal
lumber exporters in Hood River, the
Davenport Lumber Company shipped
last year 5,140,104 feet of lumber, valued
at $34,044,70.
The Hood River Electric Light and
Power comDanv began onerations in
June, 1901, and is now delivering to
business houses and private residences
of the town electric light to the amount
of 8,500 candle power, lue company
t I . t run I i ..!.....
lias auout n,uuu iiivesteu in electric uiw
chinery, switch boards, lines, poles,etc.
and has developed 100 horse power, val
ued at $12,600 from the water of Hood
river, making the value of the plant
worth $21,600. Ihe company has a
deed to 400 additional horse power in
the river, of which it can make use at
any time by the builifnig of additional
dams. Hood river, it is estimated, has
a total horse power, if properly harness
ed, of from 3,000 to 6,000. The genera
tor installed by the company was the
third of its kind on the Pacific coast, last
summer. With this generator the com
pany is able to operate incandescent and
arc lights and motor power at the same
time, by the use of additional wires.
The Pacific States Telephone and Tel
egraph company began business in Hood
River in April, 1899,wili 13 instruments.
During the two years and eight months
sines then, the local telephone system
has increased to a total of 100 phones,
and today Hood River is considered one
of the best exchanges which the com
pany has. On the long distance lines,
Hood River does more business in pro
nortion to its size than anv other town in
the state. The amountof local telephone
business is surprisingly large to one not
laminar wiin it. uuring me lasi iour
days in November, 1901, there was
a total of 1,324 calls sent to the central
otlice, making an average of 882 a day.
I no average for the same days last year
w as but 177.
A report from the Davidson Fruit Com
pany affords an interesting indication of
the increase in the volume of business
transacted in Hood River during the last
four years. The Davidson Fruit Co. was
established in 1897, and during that
year the freight handled by the company
aggregated about 8 carloads of fruit
shipped out of Hood River, and three
carloads of fruit boxes shipped in, mak
ing the total volume of business for the
company thatyear$ll,000. During 1901,
the company shipped out, in round num.-
bers,41 cars of green fruit,12 cars of can
ned fruit, two cars of dried fruit, five cars
of box shook s a total of 60 cars. The
company shipped in 70 cars of lumber
seven cars of green fruit, three cars of
fertilizer, two cars of implements and
vehicles a totalf 82 cars. This makes
a grand total of 142 cars, averaging about
4 cars per week for nine months of the
year, and represents a total volume of
bngtness of over $200,000. t The figures
show a large increase notwithstanding
the fact that the fruit crop this season
was extremely short. The shipments in
of fruit were principally cherries and
pears.

The Oregonian'g annual New Year'g
number ig an issue of which its publish
ers may justly fee! proud. The mam
moth paper of 64 pages surpasses all
previous attempts at special editions, and
no paper of equal value was ever before
printed on the Pacific coast. ' The pa
per is brim full of material descriptive
of the resources and productions of the
Columbia river valley, embracing the
state of Oregon, Eastern Washington and
Southern Idaho. Everything that would
interest the seekers for homes in the
West is told about in well written arti1
cles by men who are authorities on their
subjects. The horticultural and agricul
tural resources are ably presented. Con
siderable space is devoted to the Oregon
mines, which are today attracting world
wide attention. The moneyed men of
the East ought to be attracted by the
articles descriptive of Portland's com
mercial and financial standing. This
matter was prepared by the Oregonian'g
commercial and marine editor, whose
reports are always accepted by Eastern
newspapers in preference to other Pacific
coast authorities. Another section of
the paper admirably presents the vast
possibilities open to the United States
for commercial relations w ith our oceanic
possessions and the countries of the Far
East, and shows the commanding posi
tion to which the Pacific coast must nat
urally attain in the not distant future.
A third section tells of the Lewi6
and Clark centennial exposition, and
the able article by Professor F. G
Young of the University of Oregon
on the significance of the great west
ward movement begun by those hardy
explorers, Merriwether Lewis and Wil
liam Clark, is a historical production
worthy of publication in more substan
tial form. In fact, this whole num
ber of the Oregonian might well be kept
as standard reference matter on all
things pertaining to Oregon and the
Pacific Northwest. Hood River is not
overlooked, and comes in for an excel
lent two-column article, artistically
penned by Hugh Gourlay of The Dalles,
