FRIDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1902.
The Torreiis law, a system of register
ing land titles, enaeted by the Oregon
legislature, is about to be given a trial
by Judge Bellinger, who has applied to
Lave a piece of land owned by himself
registered under this law. The chief
. . point of the law is to give the owner of
a piece of real estate ail official certifi
cate of title which will be absolute, and
which may be sold or transferred with
' the same facility as a certificate of stock
in a bank or a government bond. This
law was passed by the legislature nearly
four years ago, but for some reason the
system has never been put in practice
iu Oregon. Attorney John Leland Hen
derson of Hood River attempted to reg
ister titles to real estate for different
parties soon after the law was passed,
but the county court refused to do its
part in the matter, and Mr. Henderson
was obliged to give up the attempt for
the time being, but has half-a-dozen
cases on file and will push the matter
' till the law is recognized by the courts
and county officials if he has to appeal
to the legislature. Mr.' Henderson was
. the first attorney in the state to file ap
plications for certificates 6f land titles
under this law. The Glacier has never
learned of any other attorney in this
or any other .county filing applications
under this law. Now that Judge Bel
linger has taken ttie matter in hand he
may succeed in getting his title regis
tered. Others will follow, and the law
. will become popular with all except the
abstract companies, the lawyers and
the county officials whoso fees will be
cut short by this simple method of
transferring title.
The editor of the Fruewater Times
. finds editing a news paper not the easy
task it is cracked up to be by his critics.
His local page doesn't loom up as it
should, but he is bound to make her
loom if he has to use up his ten volumes
of cyclopedias. Judging from the fol
, lowing editorial in a recent issue, the
editor is having a strenuous time of it.
He says:
"The last weeks issue seemed to be
quite free from proof, but the many
, readers of the Times know already of it
.. being my first attempt at editing. You
no doubt will notice the progress in this
issue. My local page of last week did
not loom up as it should, or would, had
a more experienced head have put it up.
But by the aid of ten volumes of an en
cyclopedia I will endeavor to make a
more able sheet than before. As we
grow older we learn more, as experience
is a great teacher.
"My editorial columns also were the
remnants of bad luck and much com
ment was upon them.
"But how well we know' there Is but
few journalists in this amediate country,
if they were numerous the poor editor
would not have to pay so many bills to
the shoemaker, but he will never quit.
"He will ever press onward and up
ward, and when he has succeeded you
will say, 'Well done our good editor is
still with us.' "
The Dalles Mountaineer calls for the
election of an Eastern Oregon man to
the United States senate. Eastern Ore
gon has had but one senator in the 44
years since the state was admitted to the
Union. Eastern Oregon's interests may
demand a representative in both branch
esof the national congress ;an open river
and the reclamation of its deserts may
require an advocate in the senate as
well as in the house; but the senator
will not be elected from Eastern Oregon
this time. The people elected a sena
tor last June; the politicians will attend
to the election of the man who will take
his seat. --
Thos. B. Reed, statesman, ex-speaker
of the house of representatives, and jne
of the most noted men in American his
tory, died in Washington city, Decem
ber 6. He was the author of the rule
In the lower house of congress to count
a quorum w hen a sufficient number of
members are present and not all voting,
and which has since been adhered to,
making it possible for the house to trans
act business. By this ruling ho gained
the sobriquet of "Czar" Heed.
The economy of high wages has often
been disputed, but the American mana
gers of the electrical works at Manches
ter, England, believe in it. They have
raised the wage scale in their works one
third and are demanding that their
workmen hustle after Yankee fashion.
As a result they are getting double the
work each day that their English com
petitors are getting and the latter are
complaining about the "Americanua
tion" of English industries.
The Northern 'Pacific and Great Nor
thern railroads have contributed $50,000
to the Lew is and Clark centennial. This
with Portland's contribution makes a
total of $410,000 guaranteed for-4he fair.
The legislature will undoubtedly make
ample appropriation, rongress will do
the same, and the centennial of Ixwis
and Clark's exploration of the Oregon
country will be fitly celebrated at Tort
land in 1905.
Among the varieties of winter apples
warded social prizes at the apple
growers' congress at St. Louis w as the
Clayton. This is an old variety, much
grown in Indiana. It is fully as hardy
as Ben Davis, and is excellent in quality.
It is decidedly of the York Imperial
type, and it may prove identical with
that now popular new variety.
The recent heavy rains in south Texas
lias hastened the ripening of the straw
berry. Usually the first berries to reach
the San Antonio market are found on
the Christmas tables. But thin season
ripo berries, were found on the Thanks
giving table. In jhe coast rvgion the
early crop promises to give the largest
yield harvested for several years.
The woman suffragists of Oregon have
not given up hope of the privilege of
voting. A movement is on foot to ask
the legislature to again submit the
woman suffrage amendment to a vote of
the people. This amendment was de
feated ii) 1888 and again in 1900.
Reduced hotneseekers' rates will go
,into efiect on the Union Paeiiie, Great
Northern and Northern Pacific, after
February 15, and continue until April
30. It will then cost 13 from Chicago
to the coast, and $25 from St. Paul and
St. Louis. .
Odcll Notes.
Odell, December 3, 1902.
The Rev. C. A. Wyman resumed his
lectures on "Rome and Romanism," last
Sunday at 3 p. in., in the Union church.
Hans Jochimsen has recently been
showing a gentleman from Kansas over
this wonderful country, and, I under
stand, has made sale of the Fonts place,
above the bridge on the Cloud Cap Inn
road. Hans is a hustler and usually
lands his game.
Bert Boardman must be a crack shot,
judging from the shot which won him a
turkey for Thanksgiving.
The people of Odell have been enjoy
ing themselves ffecently, judging from
the pleasant parties they have had. A
birthday party at Mr. Crockett's for
Miss Ethel Wood, and a dancing party
at Cop Henrich'8.
F. P. Friday, of Friday & Barnes, is
preparing ground for an apple orchard
on his land near Frank Stanton's.
W. A. Slingerland is now using the
Japs that H. F. Davidson bad on Willow
Flat, and is clearing 20 acres of ground
he purchased of Mr. Crockett. -
And still the red apples go to market.
R. Shellev shipped about 100 boxes to
Portland last week .
Albert Shelley, eon of the Rev. Troy
Shelley, is spending the winter in Port
land. Johnnie Roberts., in company with his
brother from Portland, is spending the
winter days on his homestead, and judg
ing from the class of goods thev are
using lliey musi 03 enjoying u princely
time. In early days within, the recol
lection of the writer, the homesteader
did not enjoy the luxury of oysters, eggs
and condensed cream. Hut Hood Kiver
is truly an exception.
The new Harbison bridge has, been
used for a week or more, very much to
the satisfaction of the residents along
Neal creek.
The literary club will discuss the fol
lowing Question Thursday night: "Re:
solved, that the recent strike of the coal
miners was justifiable." This being a
live, vital question and the leaders, Mr.
l ames and Mr. .Brown Deing aDie ae
baters, should draw a large crowd. In
additiou to the debate a musical and
literary programme will be rendered.
Why don't some one start a dairy and
creamery in Hood Kiver valley t witn
good stock . and clover meadows and a
steady demand tor sucn products, some
enterprising party will soon do so; then
what will the old-timers say f
The hay crop of East Hood River val
lev is almost all sold and winter inst
tairly started. Is it true that this fer
tile section will continue to let the M u
lamette valley and the meadows along
the Columbia river supply the local
market? It should not be so. Plant
clover as well as apples and strawberries
Roswell Shelley and wife returned
from Portland, luesday, and report bus
iness good there. Evidences of prosper
ity are everywhere manifest, but while
walking lu or lz blocks only saw one
box of Hood River apples displayed for
sale. I he markets are well supplied
with colorless, wormy apples from the
Willamette valley, such as no grower
here would have nerve sufficient to ship,
They are much inferior to the culls here,
but these will not last long and then
Hood Kiver apples will be in demand.
Uncle Sam's Model Farm.
Newberg Graphic.
It is stated that the United States is
to have a model farm run by the agri.
cultural department and situated just
across the Potomac river trom Hashing-
ton, the purpose of Secretary Wilson be
ing to make it the Mecca tor larmers.
not only of the United States but of the
whole world, farmers who have at
some time been beguiled into planting
"department" seeds liberally supplied
bv zea ous consressmen would like Mr
Wilson to try his hand on the model
farm with a liberal assortment of the
"model" seeds which his department
deals out so generously all over the
country every spring. In that case he
might feel a good deal as did the man
who said:
I nearly hate the thought of sprl ng,
With Its delightful sun,
For well I know the mall will bring
A pock from Washington;
A little package, duly franked,
No postage, stamps to show,
And It contains those lit Lie seeds
The kind that never grow.
Our good and zealous congressman,
Remindful of our vole,
Upon his memorandum's page
ruts down a little note,
And when the proper time arrives
For ns to w ield the hoe,
He sendeth us the llllle needs
The ones that never grow.
There's squashes with enticing names; ,
Ami cahhages. 1 wot.
80 large that you would think that one
Would shade a garden spot;
(So with the pack from Washington
You amble forth to sow.
With many a drop of sweat, the seeds
That never care to grow.
Itow often have I piled the rake,
flow oft I've lounged about
With eyes alert to catch the first
Signs of Ihe coining sprout;
In vain, in vain, my hopes have fled,
My heart htts filled with woe,
Above the seed from Washington
The seeds that uever grow.
Hut yet each year my hopes revive,
As spring reclol hes t lie tree.
And to my homestead surely comes
The package marked 4,M. C.;"
And, fiHilish like, again I wield
The sprinkler and the lure.
And, like a ninny, plant the seeds
Thai never care to grow.
The town of I.yle is still experiencing
a boom. It has six stores and had seven
saloons, but the saloons were run with
out license and the authorities closed
them up and took their proprietors to
(oldendale to answer before the courts
for selling liquors without licenses.
Theodore II. Liebe, the well-known
Dalles jeweler, and Miss Winona Gray
were married at The Dalles, Novem
ber I'ti.
Twenty-one inches of rain fell during
the mouth of November at Cascade
Icks. The enormity of this amount
may be comprehended w hen it is stated
that the entire annual rainfall in some
parts of our country has fallen as low as
seven inches. During the November just
past 10 inches-fell at Portland. Pio
neer. Track laying on the Lyle-Goldendale
road is progressing slowly, it is said, on
account of the lack of hands to do the
work.
Earl Sanders has locate,! at Ca-nrd'
Alenecitv, Idaho, and will practice law.
Mr. Sanders is a worthy young man who
will succeed at his chosen profession.
Miss IVarl Evans died at Seattle. No
vember 28, aged 15 years, 10 months
and 2S days. Her remains were brought
to Mosier for burial.
Seventeen cars and a locomotive have
been received at I.yle for the Lyle-Uol-dendale
