Business and work of all kinds wag put aside last Saturday, and everybody in Hood Kiver observed the holiday in someway or another. Of those who left town the preater part went to The Dalles, probably about 300 people. The Uoldendale excursion took 75 more. General picnics were held at Winans' in the forks of Hood river, and at Grib ble hall, Mount Hood, and people who did not gather here, enj6yed private pic nics of their own. It is said nearly 1,000 people gathered at the Falls. The town of Hood River was practically deserted all day. THE EXCURSION TO GOLDENDALE. About 5 Hood River people accom panied the Hood River base ball nine lo Uoldendale on the 4th. Two hun dred and seventy-eight passengers were taken on the steamer Regulator at Hood River, and 25 went up on the steamer Maja. .Most of them went on to The Dulles. The trip from Lyle over the Colum bia River and Northern railroad to lioldundale, 43 miles, waa made in one hour and three-quarters. For several niik9 the road follows the Klickitat river, a stream flowing about as mueb water as Hood river. The road then follows up Swale canyon to near Cen terville. No farms and not much signs of habitation were to be seen until the oars emerged from the cauyon. Then the excursionists were delighted with a view of green fields of wheat and other cereals extending for miles over what is culled the swale. The black soil in the swale gives the growing crops the deepest green color ever seen by the writer. After viewing this beautiful farming country the excur sionists could account for the building of the railroad over the desolate route they had come. One million bushels of wheat annually produced are tributary to this road and will be hauled over it to the Columbia river. Uoldendale was reached at 11:30 a.m. The town was pretty well deserted by picnics which took the people in differ ent directions. Tbealtitudeof Uolden dale is lUOti feet. The town is com pactly built and contains about 1,200 people. The best of water la piped in from the hills a distance of 12 miles. The Uoldendale Academy is a well known institution of learning. Many handsome residences have been built during the past year. The most im posing structure in t lie town istheCen tml hotel, reMitly opened to the pub lic. The building is three stories, built of brick, and contains (12 rooms for guests. The hotel has lis own electric light plant, and everything about the building is first class. The cost of the building, everything complete, was fl."),Ki0. Hood Jiiver needs just such a hotel. The game oi base ball wax the attrac tion of the day. Uoldendale has an inclosed diamond and a covered grand stand capable of seating several hun dred people. Th Hood River visitors rilled about one-half of the space occu pied in the grand stand. The game was spirited from start to finish. The Uoldendale nine are experts at the game and are paid salaries, the town having raised $1,200 for their benefit. l',ut the Hood River nine held them pretty level, and the game resulted 8 to 4 in favor of Uoldendale. The um pire was the Uoldendale postmaster, and his rulings were decidedly unfair to Hood Kiver. Hood River people, of w hoin about one-half were ladies, were Justly indignant at the loud mouthings of a rooter for the Uoldendale boys on the grand stand He made himself ob noxious to every one by his insulting remarks yelled at the top of his voice, lie might have thouuht it smart to act In this rowdy way, but the U'tter class of the Uoldendale citizens were asham ed of him. More or less cheering of fa vorites is expected t a base ball game, but spectators should tie protected from such rowdyism as was exhibited at Uoldendale. The excursionist took the train at the close of the ball game and were soon again at I.yle, where they rejoin ed the parly returning from The Dalles, and at 8 p. in. were lauded at Hood River, well pleased with the way they had spent the day. OOLDKNDAl.K IK1EAT8 HOOD RIVER. The base ball game, in which Hood River was defeated 8 to 4, is told about by innings by the Glacier's special re porter as follows: The game wa called at 2:20 by Um pire Spauldinp, with Hood River at toe bat. Strong opened the performance waw AND with a goose egg. C. Castner went to the badotj a strike to first, followed by a fan by J. Castner. Goldendale came up with a yell and SanderB at the bat Fabric on first made a "beaut" of an er ror, and Sanders landed safe at first, fol lowed by Dunbar, Goldendale's lightning pitcher, who made a one bagger. San ders went down on second by a bit of quick work on the part of Haynes. W. St. Johns came up, tapped a ball to J. Castner and was stopped at first. Walt St. John put one in right field ; Castner muffed the play and Dunbar galloped home. Stringfell'ow hit a little one to J. Castner and died on first. Second Inning Fabric took the stick and fanned the dust. Hemman got a ball on the arm, which sent him limp ing to first. Morse stepped up and then down again. L. Haynes made a two bagger and brought in Hemman with the first tally for Hood River. Martin fanned out and left Haynes on second. Crooks opened the second half and went out at first. Uarner tanned; spaulding knocked a little one to Fabric and came back. ' Third Roy Haynes took first on three Btrikes. Strong came to bat and struck out. C. Castner tipped a foul to Catcher W. St. John, and went to the bench. J. Castner knocked a strong one to second, and was put out on first. Baker tapped one to Morse and went out on first. San ders knocked one to Pitcher Haynes, who threw him out at first. Dunbar knocked a daisy to center field and on an error by Hemman he got to Becond. VV. St. John put a hot grounder to C. Castner, who threw him out at first, leaving Dunbar on third. Fourth Fabric put one in the short stop's way and went to the bad on first. Hemman struck out. unaney worse made first on a neat little one. Through an error by Dunbar, L. Haynes came up with a tnree Dagger ana ran morse home. Martin knocked a little sick one to first and wet out. Goldendale came to bat with Walt St. John up, who took one spot on balls. Stringfellow knocked one to short stop, where a fumble gave him first. Crooks put one back to Pitcher Haynes and got thrown out for his trouble. Garner made a safe hit, which brought in Walt St. John. Spaulding and Baker went out in suc ceesion on easy ones. Fifth Hoy Haynes made a Bate hit. and Strong struck out. Roy tallied on a wild throw. C. Castner tapped a bird to third and went out. J. Castner drove to the right for two bases. Fabric fanned out.

St. John went out near home. Crook made a foul to Fabric and went out. Garner came to bat, rolled one to Roy and was out at first. Sixth Hemman got to first, and Morse struck out. Hemman, on account of his air pump, could not run, and substitute O. P. Haynes was started from first to finish the job. Morse mis understood certain signs from Captain Castner, and Haynes bit the grit lor second base, and, the way be went re minded one of an ice wagon going to a fire. He went out between first and second. L. Haynes tapped an out to left. Spaulding came up with a confi dential air (or dust), but died at first linker My to right field was gathered in by Strong. Sanders drew a two-spot, with nobody in the field. ' Dunbar landed safely. Morse tried to throw the ball to first to stop Dunbar, but instead be nearly killed the umpire (and justly, too) by hitting him in the small of the back. The decisions were better after this. W. St. John made a safe hit, bringing in two scores. Walt St- John knocked a foul, but forgot to step out of the box, and went out for the oversight U.St Johns immediately went out for not touching the plate as he came in. incitement ran high with the red-faced rooter in the gallery. Seventh Martin made a safe, but waa stopped at second. Martin is a dandy on long drives. R. Haynes made a safe hit. Strong followed to first on wild balls. C. Castner fanned. J: Castner made a hit forcing Strong up the line, but he got dust in Ids eyes and lost out on the run to second, retiring to the bench. Stringfellow landed safely. Crook followed suit, forcing Stringfellow to bit the pike, but ho died of heart disease at second. Garner drove to left field, and got to first on Haynes' error. Spaulding forced a run, and Uarner was out C. Spaulding struck oat Kizhtb Fabric missed the balls and sat down, lleninian'a short to Dunbar retired him at the initial sack. Morse walked to third on a fly to short. Dun bar came op and out W. St John would have been out, but Fabric muffed the ball, allowing him to get to first But Morse got him out at third. Walt St John made a safe hit and the boys PAR i' made so many bad throws and mufis that he made a tally. Stringfellow made a two bagger and Crooks a bad ny to L. Haynes, who got the ball on a hard run and stonned the inning. Ninth L. Haynes knocked a little one and was cought out on first. Mar tin put a fly in the left fielder's hands and came back to the bench. K Haynes made a safe to first ; strong a hit that took him to first. C. Castner came up with dust in his eye and wrath in his heart. The way he swatted the ball galloped him to second, bring ing in Roy Haynes and a score, leaving the last half of the ninth to be played at some future date. The lineup of the Hood River team was the worst it has been tins year. With the team that has been playing, and a little more justice on decisions there is no doubt that Hood River could have had another game to its credit. The result by inuines was: Hood River .o-l-O-M-tHKH--! Uoldendale MMM-2-2-U- 8 Following was the lineup. Strong- r. f. Spaulding C. Castner 2 b C. Hnauldlng J. castner 8. jsiringieuow G. FHbrlo lb.

Speaking of the baseball game in which Hood River defeated Dufur, the Dufur Dispatch says: ''The game was a pleasant affair and was played without a kick or jar of any sort and was well umpired." The Oakdale ranch, D. N. Byerlee, proprietor, observed the 4th with a pic nic in the delightful wooded retreats on the bluffs overlooking the grand old Columbia. No prettier place in the world could be found for a picnic. Most of the Glacier force was present to enjoy the dinner and the day. In the evening a large party gathered on the porch of Robert Rand's new hotel on the brink of Phelps creek falls, and watched a brilliant display of fireworks Bet off by Ernest Rand and Ed Byerlee. Rockets could be seen shooting out from under the Washington cliffs in the neighbor hood of the Sorensen ranch. The pic nic at Oakdale was the pleasantest kind of an outing.and was much enioyed by all. The town had a narrow escape from fire 4th of July night. Everybody was at the depot grounds watching the fire works, except Uncle Oliver Bartmess, who, as he stepped out on the second story porch of the furniture store noticed a small blare in the canvas hung at the west end of the porch. The blaze was easily smothered only because it bargained no headway. A strong wind was blowing and had the fire secured a start nothing could have pre vented the destruction of the whole bus iness section of town. The blaze must have started from a fire cracker or a rocket Uncle Oliver Bartmess saved the town. Charles Ladd treated Hood River to a fine display of fireworks, on the evening of the 4th, from his house boat on the river. The sky rockets were beautiful. As the Regulator pulled out for The Dalles in the morning, loaded with near ly 300 Hood River people, Mr. Ladd tired round after round of salute from a little howitzer on his boat THIS DAY AT BELMONT. Belmont celebrated at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Farrell, where dinner was nerved and aftera'ani a ri nf base ball was played. The first team consisted or t red, 11 arry and Ed Bar ker ana viii farrell. Against them were Marsh and Will Tnl Church and Miss Uraee Wilson. The umpire was M. P. Isenberg, wbodidn't follow Snaulding's rules, but suited his decisions to the occasions. He finally had to leave for a safe spot in the tim ber. Miss Grace Wilnnn nmvul fect surprise party, and as a twlrler of the sphere waa the best player of the uuueu.

The fine display of fire works waa un der the auspices of the Belmont Flam bo club. Professor Ed McFarland, man ager. The crowd dispersed at 11:30 declaring that, although tbey bad not taken advantage of the excursions, they bad spent the pleasantest 4tli of July since coming to Oregon. Some Toiota on Free Rural Delivery. Hood River, Or., July 6, 1003. Ed- Itor Glacier: Farmers everywhere are greatly interested In the rural free do livery system, auu no me people oi our valley are giving much thought to the subject just at present, I trust some thing supplementary lo Mr. Wyman's article ot lasi ween win not te taken amiss. As a member of the soliciting committee for raising funds to Increase the carrier's pay on route No. 1, I had some opportunities to note the feeling of the people concerning donations of this kind. Refusal, or willingness to subscribe to the fund, waa no criterion of a man's financial status. None wanted to see the service abandoned, but here and there was found one, easily able to pay, who objected on the principle that our Uncle Sam is rich enough to pay his own bills, while many whom I knew could illy spare a dollar handed it out without argument or complaint. These latter viewed the situation from my own point of view, while the others did uot. My own way of thinking has been biased by some facts and figures wnien l win subjoin. To begin: There are now 15.092 rural free delivery routes in existence in the United States, and 1,587 more have been accepted and are waiting to be put In operation when appropriations become available, mere are also 10,- 730 petitions for new routes awaiting the decision of the department. These figures were given; out recently bv Postmaster General Payne himself. He also stated that "our neoule are de lighted wltb this rural delivery service and want it whether it pays the gov ernment or not." This shows the present condition of available funds. and it can be seen that a raise of $200 on the salaries of each one of the 15,092 carriers now nt worn would amount alone to the neat little sum of $3,018.- 400, to say nothing of the amount that would be needed to lustall the service in other communities that are iustlv entitled to it. General Payne predicts that the service will be self-sustaining five years hence, but his prediction was undoubtedly based on the supposition mat me present salary or carriers re main unchanged during that time. As the service is not self-sustaining at present, it should be clear to all that no authority except congress can raise the salaries of carriers a farthing. It is also true that the entire postal service is not self-supporting, there being a constant deficit which has to be pro vided for by appropriations from the treasury to the amount of about eleven million dollars per annum. When the present crisis arose con cerning carrier's salary on our route, I wrote to Hon. M. A. Moody asking ad' vice as to how we should best attempt to get an Increase. Mr. Moody's ser vice in congress ana his well-known in terest in rural free delivery gives weight to his expressions. Excerpts from bis letter in reply are as follows: "It is my impression that should there be a general demand for further advance, the department will be in clined to favor letting the carrying out by contract according to the old star route system, as there were some efforts made in that direction when the last raise was secured. The argument made by the people who favored the star route plan were the arguments set out in your letter, viz: that the conditions of roads or cost of maintaining horses were so different on the various routes that a Just, uniform price could not be cstabiistied. "The friends of the star route plan in slsted that the service could be done for less money under the contract sys tem man under ttie present system with carriers at a stilted salary. I am inclined to think they were correct in this argument, because there always have been people willing to carry the mails for less than it is worth and fre quently for less than it cost. The nat ural result is that bad service is had "There can be no change in the price auowea to carriers until another post office appropriation bill is considered by congress, and should the members then press for higher pay for carriers, I should be fearful that it might result in supplanting them by the old star route contracts to the detriment of the ser vice." Mr. Moody's only suggestions, for relief were: better roads aud the giving of carriers permission to handle express matter a privilege whicli lias already been granted to our route, but which this far has not greatly in creased the earnings of the carriers. that the present salary of itsoo per year is insufficient pay is clear from the fact that throughout the United States carriers are resigning at the rate of 75 per day. Illinois as an average state sends in two resignations of cur riers daily. Just what the outcome will be no one knows, and if we press congress for a raise it must be on the assumption that "the farmer fcedeth all," and that a little favoritism shown him would be a proper thing. Unless we can get our representatives to look upon the matter in this way, I greatly fear that some of our steady kickers will have to sutler persecution from soliciting committees for several years to come. As to the pay of carriers, very few persotis are now to be found who will argue that (000 Is enough for the ser vice performed on our routes in this valley, bo tar It bos been upheld by vigorous, intelligent young men, and it is quite certain that none but this type of men can long endure the work and give satisfaction. It is not reason able to expect such men to lay aside all other ambitions and settle down to a steady job that aff ords them only a bare liviug. iLven fsuo, in the estima tion of many, is not a princely salary. I imagine that a good way to settle this point would be for some patron of our route to take the contract for oue year; hire a man, pay bira, board bitu, and find him team aud outfit com plete during that time. I think the assertion can be made without fear of contradiction that he would not find the profits great enough to make him wish that he bad two such contracts, instead of ouly one. R. E. Harbison.

Mr. Bradford was 79 years old at tbe time of bis death, and was one of Ore gon's best known pioneers, and with his brothers built and operated the first portage railroad at the cascades of the Columbia, 40 years ago. With his brothers, James, Daniel and Putnam, be has been identified with the growth of the state since 1850. The Brad fords were among tbe first, If not the very nrst men to operate steamers on the Columbia river. The portage road pro ject was the greatest accomplishment or an ineir undertakings, nowever, and was a tremendous success, its con struction cost large sums of money, for in me early nays it was a much more expensive proposition than at the pres ent, i uue. Death of William Drnno. William Drano, or "French Billy." as he is familiarly kuown, died at his Dra no farm at the mouth of Little White Salmon, earlv Thursday morning. July 7, 1903. French Billy was about 80 years of age, and a well known cliarac ter along the Columbia river. He came to Oregon 40 years ago. having in his early days served as a sailor in all parts of the world.
