The content at thu republican prima ries in Hood River valley.last Saturday, was about the warmest affair of tliakiml that ever took place in Hood River. The chief internet in the contest fordekjwtcs centered on thecongresnional canilitlute, and the minor ollieen were not men tioned. The adherents of brute Senator Williamson worked incessantly for a week or more and overcome the work 01 Representative Moody's friends at the polls by a vote of 14 to 8 in Hood River valley.

Hood River, Feb. 24, 1902. Editor Glacier: I have observed with keen enjoyment the interest taken in the de bates between Odell and Pino Grove lit erary societies. One of the most desira ble accomplishments of aman is to be able to stand before an audience of his fellows and logically, fluently and grace fully present to them his views upon any subject under discussion. It strength ens, deepens and broadens the character of a man and gives him advantages over bis fellows not to be attained otherwise by birtli or wealth or other favorable eircunistane.es. Our future statesmen, politicians, leaders in the business and social world are to be recruited from the ranks of the rising generation. If a young man has ambition for a promi nent place in any of thesa avenues-leading to distilinction in the ranks of his fellows; a mastery over himself and bis speech will give to hiin an almost irre sistible force, while a lack of this w ill prove an almost insurmountable handi cap to his career. Let our young men zealously study to acquit themselves with honor in the debate,and Hood River may lead the world in statecraft as well as in horticulture. I have observed with a great deal of mortification, disgust and- personal in convenience, the condition 'of some of our public highways in the valley. A little fall of snow followed by a chinook breeze w ith a gentle rain, a typical pro gramme of the weather department of the valley, places many stretches of our roads in an almost impassable condition for n time, and even when the admira ble qualities of our soil and climate has ' restored the roads to a solid conditon in a few days again, they are always left in a more or less rough condition by rea son of the numerous ruts, . chuck holes and new stones protruding where the dirt had worn or washed away. The amount of time and money ex'pended to keep the roads in even passable condi tion by our present methods for a few years, would, if expended in thepurchaso of a rock crusher aud the manipulation of the same, shortly place our roads in such a shape that nothing short of an earthquake would affect their solidity Washington and Multnomah counties tried this experiment years ago over roads many times worse than our very worst.in the neighborhood of Raleigh and lieavorton particularly, and they met w ith such abundant success that when last heard from they proposed to concrete the entire district. Where in years past it was hardly possible to pass on horseback, teams may now haul one and one-half to two cords of wood over roads as solid as adamant and clean and smooth as a bicycle path. After being thus treated with crushed rock ten per cent of the present expense would keep the roads ui fine shape. Is not this a pertinent question for our county com niissioners to consider? Such roads would double tho value ofour holdings in some parts ol the valley. I have observed with some amuse mont and considerable contempt the 8 raining at a gnat and the swallow ing ol the camel resorted to by some ot our self-righteous male or female citizens who appear to have been attacked by a severe spasm from the suf erings of a worthless cur, of which latter, Hood River is certainly abundantly accursed If a cat or a dog cannot be taught to be decent about tho premises, perhaps the tiest thing that can be done is to kill it; but life is sweet to even a filthy dog or cat and many people, mercifully they think, prefer to let them shift for them selves ratluar than to kill them. There is another animal, one of "God's create urea, "'the genus homo, for which these people who have been suffering from this spasm of tenderheartedness seem to have no pity. A little more kindness shown to specimens of this genus, botl male and female, by all people would greatly reduce suffering, sin, disgrace, desertions and divorces, and an increase in health, wealth and the pursuit ot happiness. Let every . woman give to her husband the caresses and kisses she does to a tilthy cur or a nasty cat, and the husband bestows upon his wife the same tender solicitude and affection he often doe's upon a cat or dog or horse and there would be little occasion for a liu mane society. "Them's my sentiments. '. Csci.k Ikh. Wrecked oh the Columbia. Cascade Ixicku, Feb. 25, 1902. Editor ' Glacier: Your corresondent on the lull lias been misinformed concerning the accident that befell the little steamer Waterwitch. Will von kind ly allow me space to make correc tions and ttat the facts in the case The boat did not sink as soon as it came off the snag hut ran about a quarter of a mile to shore where it w as allowed to sink in alVut two and one-half feet of water.' We did not then nor do we no consider that we narrowly - escaped drownfng. The object of our trip that day was to take three visiting friends for a little boat ride and take some views of the river scenery with the two cameras tak en along. After photographing two picturesque tills of soenerv, we decided to go on ill the river and get a picture of halles Citv Rock.wbich.owing to theuimsnatlv low water, stood quite high out of the ri.er. We wro iu .the rcuular steam Ixiat channel, but the freezing weal I had caused the river to fall several feet after the large taints quit running. Tl very low water Had brought aotnt' snag dangerously near the surf.ice of the wa ter, a tact ol wli'ch we were not aware We struck one of these and tried fohao off. hen it wa found we could not and that there was some water coming into the ImiU it divided that the captain should take the women and children ashore, which was geeiirding'y done. We found a place behind a small cliff of rock, where we were sheltered from the wind, and made a tire wkh wood and matches brought from the boat. Here we were fairly, comfortable during the hour and a Ivitf that elapsed In-fore the boat as freed from the snag. When it did enme off the snag, it was run d.vwn the river little wave to escape other atiatra and then straight into shore, coming no dose that the (our men on hoard junied to the shore without getting in the water. e Hoy enough to carry the entire party home. Here our real trouble began. It did not seem very cold w hen vie left home, and we soon foumftlie wraps we wore were insufficient to protect lis from the pierc ing winter wind which blew with such terrible force at this point on the river. Almost every one in the party sacrificed some wrap orother article of clothing to wraparound the little children. The women and children were again put in tho boat with, the captain, while the rest of the party walked down the beach. . j We found a largo boitt.and thecaptain immediately started to a bouse back from the ihore a little ways to find the owner of the boat, but was told by the people living there .that they did not own it. At the second house lie was told the owner of the boatjived back in the mountains somewhere. Briefly telling them of our dilemma, he asked them to tell tho owner of the boat when he came that he had taken the boat butwould re turn it soon and pay for the use of it. He returned to the boat w here after a little search the hiddenoars were brought to light and the boat launched. What we suffered from the terrible cold whiles waiting here we will not soon forget. There was not the slightest shelter, not a thing to break the piercing wind from us, uot a p!ace,to sit or even stand except in the sn6w or ice. When once we were in the boat we felt that our troubles were almost ended. The coats of the oarsmen were thrown over the little children and they were soon asleep. With three of the men at the oars we went rapidly over the water to wards home, which we reached in three quarters of an hour's ride. We were verv tired and hungry, for it was almost 6 o'clock w hen we were home again, and no one bad eaten anything since breakfast, except the little children, for whom a little lunch was taken along. Did we resolve that we would never go attain? No. onlv that we would never make another trip in the winter time Mrs. Dorrancb Smith. E. E. Bartholomew and Miss Lila Shaw were married at Glenwood.Wash., Feb. 24th. At no time since the war began have the Boers been able to put as many as 25,000 men on the fighting line, yet the British list of casualties has now reachud' 100,000 men. If vouadmire heroism and the rarest sort of" bravery, take off your hat to the Boers. History will never show a braver fight put up for posses sionof one's ow n land and home. President Kriieor said the price the British would pav would startlo humanity think of 25,000 men putting 100,000 outof thefight, and etill lighting. Y'amhill Reporter.

I wish to say that what I did for my riends and J. X. Williamson was done of my own free will and choice, and I wish to say further, that I do not owe a single dollar in The Dalles, neither did I receive one cent from any one, and in all the rustling that I did.I neither gave a dollar nor received one, nor did 1 give a cigar or receive one. 1 never took a swallow of liciuor nor did I offer any one a drink. I did not tell my employes thev had to vote for W illiamson nor any thing of the kind. I knew better. There never was made a more honest pull than that of mine and that was what won. I make this statement for the benefit of my friends, and the other fellows can not prove anything to the contrary, anu they need not pity me in the least, for I have the majority on my side and 1 am pleased to rind so many good people favoring all I did in the squabble. If I had space I could prove that a good many things that were told on the streets are false. I did not say a Binglo word against Moodv, neither did I tell a single falsehood in any shape or iorin.

Ill flood lac Of the Same Stripe as Sam. Rev. Joe J. Jones of Georgia, an older brother of Sam Jones.though less known as a preacher, is holding meetings in Missouri. A reporter recently visited him and afterwards attended one .of his meetings. Here is how he describes him : Rev. Joe has been preaching sixteen years, and has traveled all over the United States. He says lie will be fifty- ai x years old next corn planting time Sain Jones has been preaching twenty four years. Rev. Joe says he converted 1,100 last year, and has converted fully 17.000 since he began, but refuses to make a guess on the "jiaved, "because so many are backsliders. He served four years under General Lee inthe 22d Geor gia regiment, and was wounded twice I ma t no polished preacher, he said 'and I admit that I am as ignorant as a hoss. I iust get up and sav what think, no difference where it hits, but I don't cuss nor blackguard nobody. don't appeal to nobody's emotions, but 1 try to reason with the people, iust like I'd sit down on a log and talk to a friend in need of good advice. If shoutin' and emotion was all there was in religion, suh, the niggah9 would be a hundred years ahead ol the whites So saving, the Rev. Joe put on his overshoes, and crept down to the church tie began at 7 o clock without any pre liminaries and as suddenly pronounced the benediction at 7:55. The church was jammed. When Rev. Joe got up to preach, he put his hands in his pocketB and surveyed the audience and said; I am surprised to see so many people out tonight; l woulun t have come out myself if 1 could have found any possi ble excuse. then he said he though he would -preach from a text In Paul saving that he never put in a load nnti he saw what kind of ammnnitton lie needed. "The trouble with these preach. ers is that they are always telliu men and children to be good, and they'll die ami go to heaven, he said. 1 lie bible don't preach no such damnable stuff. bird in the hand is worth two in the hush, suh, and I'm going to hold on to it If you're good you'll live, not die. The trouble with vou people is that vou go off half cocked. There's you Methodists si 1 1 i ii there savin' amen, and you Bap tists iioddin' your heads like an old lrakt w hy don't vou go out and do something for somebody,instead of pray in' for 'em? About one-third of vou all do the pavin' and one-tenth do the pravin' and the balance gets wounc up and. don't go off till there's protracted meetin.' Now some old deacon will come around and say that s right brother, hit 'em hard' you're the worst old devil in the lot. 1 ve got so Ira ashamed to auk men to join the church the next time vou prav for a hrothe spit up in the air and see how far it will go get out and help somebody, an quit pravin' for 'em. What your broth er needs is some money and clothes, and some corn bread and sorghum. he you throw out the lite line, put some bait on it," tie masieu me men tor not pavin more attention to their families, and for not being kinder to their wives. "Tell the old woman she is pretty, an sweel n may oe a lie, out let er anyway. You II see her get up on her hind feet anil rear around like a cat ha in' a tit." He roasted the women for n treating their husbands better. "Dress up and look neat around the house. ?a;d. "Here you aresloshin'anmmlth house with a mother htihbard on and one sock down ; house dirty and filth and ine lamecioih looks like a map ot the riiiiibpine islands. lim go to meetin,' ami hv vou've got the perfect love, and the old man's got no buttons on Ins brewlies.T The Rev.Joethen roasted both hnsbam! and w ife for not paying more attention to their boys and girls and making com panions of them, lie said : "No one pay any attention to a girl, and a young man comes around with cinnamon ou h breath and carries her off, and in a year the old man's got his girl bar and a bahv to feed, too. I alwar b feel sorrv for n bov between the ae of 1 and 2.V No one pavs anv attention him and he has to gamble for what he gets, and be is rutting his niu.-Uche, too." lie roasted the stvlitdi preacher, and the stylish chnrch.and said: "When a high-toned preacher w ith a ping hat nwts a wnner, he shies around him like a mule shies around a hole in bridge. If gowned parsons and boy choirs could twve the world, we would be nyiu around with our wings on right now." The MiKsouriAin took his remarks goodnaturedlr and laughed at his roasts. i The Rev.
