FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21," 1002.
... The Simula" Lt-ailcr's Annual.
The second illustrated annual nurakr
of the r-haniko leader is received.' It is
a little late coming out, but it makes up
. for its tardiness in being one of the best
publications of the kind ever issued in
Eastern Oregon. Being devoted to the
interests of Sherman, "Wasco and Crook
counties, its illustrations and. write-up
of these wctions are good mid well
printed. Hood River is not overlooked.
Pictures of our three churches, the pub
lic school house and a general view of
the town appear, a directory of the city
officials, churches and societies is given,
and the following pen sketch, by John
II. Cradl baugh none other "could have
painted such a glowing and withal
truthful picture of Hood River:
With the exception of The Dalles,
Hood Kiver is the largest and most im
portant town tm lie line of the O. K. &
N. between Portland and Pendleton,
and it is, next to The Dalles, the most
important town in n aseo county, ji ie
beautifully located on a gently sloping
hillside.' In front flows the majestic
Columbia, a mile wide, and directly op-
Dosit the town on the Washington sid
the White Salmon, a foaming mountain
tnrreiit. nours its restless flood down
from the rmzed sides of Mount Adams
to ioin the "Oregon" in its resistless
sweep to the sea. Back of the town, soon
to be part of it, rises rather steeply
timber-covered hill to the height of per
haps .KH) feet. The town cuddles under
the bill amona magnificent oak trues
the iiriiln nnd irlorv of the place, like an
infant nirainst its mother's breast. The
residence portion is simply beautiful
There is an abundance of -tater for irri
gating purposes, and the lawns aru mar
vels of velvet verdure. In the spring
Mmrn is hloom of cherrv. andveach, and
plum, a delight to the eye, and the soft
Kiirinur air is drowsv with the sweet per
fume.. And then .the flowers! Roses
and roses and roses, pansies and violets,
hvnrintlm. cteraiiiuiiis. flowers every
where, and everywhere else. The de
lighted eves take in the Grand canyon
of the Columbia, its mile wide stretch of
liquid amethyst, the terraced hills, the
sturdy basaltic columns and, rising over
all the grand w hite uome oi -uouni,
ams. Truly, here is a "garden of de
light," a "rest for the weary;" a vision
bv day; a dream of Kden'B first few
perfect davs. before the gates were
closed and man was told to "keep
off the crass." We think some
times a section of the old Garden
got away and floated out on the flood to
land at Hood River.
It is a town of beautiful homes, its
huildiiiL's beiniz such as would be acred'
it to any city. And then those oaks,
the big, sturdy fellows, with their gray
and onw.lv bark, their spreading limbs,
and their air of independence and indi
viduality ;they are simply imiescriDaDie
unless, indeed, the spirit of the immor
tal Goldsmith might descend upon us
for a month or two. Resides its beau
ties. Hood River is a thorough business
town. It shipped in 18'jtf 1,000,000
noiind of strawberries to tickle the
tongues of the miners of Montana and
Colorado, the stockmen of Wyoming and
Utah, and even the busy throngs of
Kansas Citv. Ht. Paul and other Eastern
cities. Think of it! One million pounds
of crimson lusciousness w ith gold epau
lettes on it! A thousand thousand pounds
of vermillion juiciness Uive hundred tons
of red delight, flecked with gold, and all
to be eaten with a teaspoon ! How many
a red lip hast thou caused to ope', Oh,
Hood River!' How many pairs of eyes,
blue or 'gray or black or brown, hast
thou caused to smile into other eyes un
to the undoing of pocketbooks and souls!
How many a wedding "ring hast been
suggested by thy gleams, of yellow!
Alas! thy sins we fear are many, but
your'e worth it. But to business
Hood River business. It has a sawmill
with a capacity of 200,000 feet per day, a
good hotel and two restaurants to keep
it steady and a lunch counter to hold
them down ; two livery stables, a bank
and a newspaper to balance each other;
live general merchandise stores, three
doctors and two drug stores and two
undertaking establishments (according
tolloyle), two furniture stores, two
butcher shops, a shoe store, two grocer
ies, a clothing store, two saloons, throe
' lawyers and a billiard hall (another
happy combination) ; two racket stores,
hardware, photograph, queensware, sta
tionery and two tin establishments,
two" blacksmiths, two real estato offices
and four millinerv stores, jewelry store,
laundries, shoe and harness shops, box
factory, two commission houses, liakery,
warehouse, wholesale feed and grain,
fruit cunning establishment, painters,
teachers of music and elocution, carpeii'
ters, builders, fruit grower-,' union.
Jim I.angille, a ferry, a mayor, a city
council, and hundreds of other good
thiiurs too numerous to mention here.
In the summer a daily stage runs to
' Cloud Cap Inn, 2S miles away. This is
one of the most delightful drives and de
lightful places to visit in Oregon.or any
where else. Situated on the top of a
high ridge fronting the glacier, which is
only a few hundred yards away, the big
building, shaped like three sides of an
octagon, and built of hewn silver fir logs,
makes you feel at home as soon as you
see it. Mount Hood looms up above you
bigger and grander than it seems possi
ble for it to be, w hen it is remembered
that yon are within 4,500 feet of its sum
mit. You are hungry, of course, on ar
riving; as hungry us an 8-y-nr old boy.
Rut Mrs. l.angille'.who has'had charge of
the house for year?,soon attend to that.
The dining room opens on three sides
with big Dutch windows through
which you can see all over the earth,
and get a glimpse or two of heaven. And
then comes night and the big, open fire
place, with a hearth such as good old
Queen Anne delighted to toast her royal
shins on. From here the ascent of the
mountain is easy. lint to get down to
earth. Hood Riverhasau electric plant,
run bv water power. The river itself
has three branches, one rising in Lost
Lake, the other two coming (nun 'the
glacier. It has a fall of 70 foet to the
mile for -the 15 miles below the joining
of its branches, and furnishes unlimited
Biid easily controlled water power. Its
waters have la'cn taken out and the val
ley is now well supplied with ditches
and water for irrigation.
The large holdings are being rapidly
cut up, and there are hundreds of five
and ten acre farms devoted to berry and
fruit misinir. To such an extent is this
that t'.ie valley looks with its neat residen
ces more like'the suburbs of a large city
than like a mil farming community.
The valley has the best pastoral roads
in the world, good winter or summer
and for either bikes or teams. Young
orchards are rapidly cominarinto tear
ing, and Hood Kiver fruit is Incoming
famous from ocean to ocean. It took
the cake on strawberries at Buffalo in
competition with berries grown Fast,
despite the fong journey in the cars.
It took sixteen prizes for apples and
fruit and didn't half try ; and it set all
Eastern fruit growers talking by exliib
itint! one strawberry plant grow n by
Judge L. Henry that had"on it Kt well
develijHsl Ix-rne, and this from the
count made by the judges.
Hiiod Kiver' has a splendid six room
school bouse, erected some yT;!oat a
cost oi fS.OOO. It is well lighted, heated
bv furnace, stands on a beautiful site
oiiiiiniaiuliiiii a view of the t. elumnia,
both town and valley, is a grand fruit
country; it has unlimited water power;
it has vast timber reserves; it has beau
tiful roads and drives; it has as grand
scenery as can be found in the United
States. It has a spienuia tracing cli
mate. It is "the most beautiful find
perfect health resort, summer resort, in
Oregon. It is a place of peaceful, beau
tiful homes a never-ceasing source oi
delight. ; - .

From the MeAHwtor, I. T., Capital.
Hood River, Ore., Jan. 20, 1902. To
any Oregon-bound Home-seeker: Dear
Sir: It is our purpose in this letter to
have a short talk with you about the
most interesting section of our great
state, situated along the beautiful upper
Columbia, and but two liours travel
from Portland, our busy metropolis. In
calling your attention to this section,
popularly known as the Hood River
Vallev. which is so last Becoming ia-
mous as a truit raimiit district, we wish
to point out a few facts concerning it
from a conservative business point of
view as a profitable held for the invest
ment of catital. . i lie investor wno can
realize ten per cent on his money nowa
days considers himself fortunate, while
we can show you hero from 50 to 100 per
cent profit per annum. Land costing
from to ftoo per acre will pay iiou
net in strawberries, and from $200
to J500 in apples. We never have a fail
ure of crops; the iteinanu lor truit trom
this section increases every year; ad
vance orders now on file will more than
cover the output of 1!H)2; prices are al-
whvb eood, as the tlooit Kiver mm has
a distinctive market value on account of
!. . jr.... u i i . ,
UO IlllO IIHVtM HUH liUrjIIIIJi IjUIUIIlUB,
pies are shipped from this section to all
parts 'of -the continent. Mrawbcmes
are sliipped as far as Dawson City, and
even to China, retaining sbape.colorand
flavor
To the investor with limited capital,
we say, here is a practical means of get
ting profitab'e and certain returns. To
the young man working for a salary, we
say, a sm ill outlay will put you in pos
session of a few acres of land from which
you can make more clear money than
you are now doing, have a good living,
and what is best of all, have good health
The climate of this country is very mild
and healthful, no cyclones or blizzards,
the scenery is superb, and the people
composing the community are of the
best class. We respectfully Urge upon
vou the importance of immediate action
before prices become more advanced
and tiie best properties permanently ac
quired. These facts will be fully corrob
orated by addressing the Davidson Fruit
Company or the Hood River Glacier
of this place. We will cheerfully an
swer any inquiry you may wish to make
concerning this wonderful district and be
glad to furnish you descriptions of lands
which we have for sale. Very respect
fully. Dkioos, Colbkkthon & Co.
The new election law, or amendment
thereto, makes provision for three clerks
on the election board of each precinct.
A third clerk may he necessary in some
precincts in Portland, but it is not nec
essary in the country districts, further
than to make more offices. In Hood
River it is a hard matter to' find men
to serve on election boards. The state
election comes when every ono here is
busy. Our strawberry harvest is on,
and farmers and all business men who
serve on the board do so at a sacrifice of
their own business affairs.
Portland is to han a new' daily paper.
Its prospectus received says: "About
the first of March the Journal, an up-to-date
afternoon newspaper, will begin
publication in this city. A complete
plant, consisting of a large size Goes
perfecting press capacity 24,000 copies
per hour, type-setting machines, etc.,
is being installed, and when completed
publication will begin."

The stock was out at the time, bo no
stock was killed or injured.
The people are delighMM to find out
there is going to be a new store located

land has been secured and the lumber
ordered to erect the building.

Settled One Great Question.
Hood River, Ore., Feb. 18, 1002.
Editor Glacier:. The Pine Grove debat
ing society met the Odell debating society
on the Rlth instant at the Odell school
house, and discussed the proposition:
"Resolved, that the United Stateeshould
not exclude the free immigration of the
Chinese." Odell society affirmed and
Pine Grove denied.
All the arguments that could be pro
duced in poor John's favor were ably
presented by Messrs. Wyman, Hartwig,
Odell and Carries. The negative was
ably handled by Messrs.Mason.Jackson,
Giinncll and Sprout. We might add by
way of parenthesis that the negative did
not handle the question with kid gloves,
but showed to the satisfaction of the
judges and the audience that John Chi
naman is not wanted in America. Also
no one was wanted in America who
would not become good, honest, upright
supporters of our institutions and con
slitution.
The evening was the most pleasantly
spent evening that we ever enjoyed. The
1 1 ne uiove society is cortnauy uiviieu 10
come again, llieuueii society was wen
pleased with the courteous manner in
which the negative conducted its argu
ment.

give the Fillipinos freedom under a pro
tectorate of the United States." Vine
Grove affirms and Odell denies, lhe
same disputants will discuss this propo
sition that discussed the Chinese propo
sition at Odell on the Utli mst.
Everybody is invited to attend and

More Love to Man.
More !ovc to'ard those whose wearyjearcs
Weight down the years they live;
The more of love we mete lo them,
The more you'll have to give.
A word, a nod, a shoulder pat
A sunny smile from you.
Will bright Iheir lives and is the least
That man lor man can do.
Smooth nut the furrows pain has made,
'Twill bring a dividend
Of priceless gratitude lo yon,
Not counting Hod s commend.
More love to'ard him who bears a load
Thrice heavier than yours;
More luve, more love, lo soothe the pain
And sorrow he endures.

J. M. W. Pratt, secretary and treas
urer of the Wisconsin Fidelity, Trust
and Safe Deposit Company of Milwau
kee, Wis., in a business letter to C. F.
Waldo of Hood River, makes the follow
ing statement;
4,I want to tell you that we are eating
Hood Kiver apples in this part of the
country at the present time, and if they
are a fair index of the products of your
section, I should think it would affect
one's heart to be obliged to leave
there; for being a judge of that kind of
fruit, I can say that 1 never saw any
thing like it in ;ny life.and w hat ib more
they are just as good at the bottom of
of the box as at the top."
A Plea for Dumb Animals,
Hood Kiver, Feb. 11, 11 02. Editor"
Glacier: The little parti-colored home
less dog that was wandering about our
streets lhe greater part of the w inter
wasi taken in from the storm some two
weeks ago by one of our kind hearted
citizens w ho discovered the little fellow
curled up in au empty box at the fcack
door, shivering from cold and half starv
ed. The man took him into the house,
w here he was fed ami thawed out, nnd
he is now about as lively and grateful a
cur as one would w ih to see.
Several forlorn cats and little kittens
were rescued from the storm by kind
hearted wonieu. Though apparently of
small value, these little helpless animals
are God's creatures, and as such are en
titled to our consideration, and it seems
a heartless act for them to lie turned
out to shift for themselves in winter
time, w him there is small hope of any
thing for them but misery andsufferiiig;
and people ho are guilty of such acts
must le possessed of cruel hearts and are
tit subjects for the surveillance of a hu
mane society, of which latter Hood Kiv
er would do well to tic possessed.
