4 Mid. B. F. Dorris of Ktigene.Or., la at While fa 1 tin ii visiting tier (laughter, Mrs. S. W. Condon. There were 12 passengers to Trout Luke at one trip a few days ago. This shows how rapidly our tributary coun try is being nettled up. The new drug store is Hearing com pletion nnii is decidedly a neat-looking sitl'iiir. I Jr. liearlmit und Uuy Crowe will rum iisli the necessary genius to run it. There are rumors In the air to the effect that several interesting weddinps are to take place In our midst before the snow flies. One more indication of a bard winter ahead. The demand for dwelling houses is fur ahead of the supply. White Sal mon needs a number of small neat cottages for rent. They would be oc cupied as fust as completed. The festive huckleberry Is finding Its way into the market and the average small boy goeth forth with a liberal hunk in his bund as he seeketh the alludes of the swimming hole. White Salmon's reformed lawyer Is getting out his winter's wood in the timber. It took him a year to build his house and those who have seen him split pine knots say he will finish getting out his winter's wood uext summer. P. H. Sparks has been chosen princi pal of our public school for the coming school term, and has written his ac ceptance. The school will open on the second Monday of September, whieli will be the 14th. If the funds available will permit, we will have a term of 8 months. Miss Georgia Johnson will have charge of the younger pupils. We rant a good deal agaiast organ ized wealth, hut If J. Pierpont Morgan, Hurriman or the Vanderbilts want to come to White Salmon and want to develop a water supply, we will wager our false teeth that they won't have to walk up the grade from the dock if we can get our harness mended in time, and that they will have all the hazel nuts and huckleberries they want to eat during theirstay. White Salmon needs a plain, com mon, ordinary cobbler a "surgeon to old shoes," as Bill Shakespear would call It. Our souls wear out and need repairs. We can't afford new shoes without stopping our subscription to the local paper, and we're too patriotic to do that; we'll go barefoot first. We can get along with an organ grinder or a hokey-pokey man, but a good shoe maker could demand a bonus. The clods hurt our feet! We have heard it remarked that hay at Hood River is $18 per ton. It Is $12 at White Salmon, and that Is plenty high. Last winter the twenty dollar hay caused many a little pile of lucre to grow emaciated. Must this be? Where is the fault? If we can't raise our own hay let's get a breed of cows that can live on oak bark or pine need Its on the same principle that Bill Nye tried to develop a breed of hogs on his North Carolina ranch that "could out run a nigger." Your correspondent, in an Interview with The Dalles agent of the the Regu lator line of steamboats, gathers that lively times are to come with the ar rival of the Spencer, as an opposition boat on this part of the river. A round trip fare of 25c from The Dalles to Port land is to be oflered by the old line so that Dalles people may do their trading in Portland. This Is one way to pun ish Dalles merchants for supporting competition on a great inland water way. The Bailey Gutzert will be put on, and a "hot time" is looked for. Rev. Mr. Talbot, pastor of the Taylor street m. cnurcn or Portland, occu pied the pulpit of our church last Bun day evening. His effort was to show thut some good, true men fail to real ize themselves because of the violation of some physical or economlo law Coming to ONE DAY ONLY. IVionday, Aug. 24.

White Salmon people are alive to their educational interests. At a meet ing of the people, called by the school directors, held last Saturday, not a single voice was raised against bonding the district for the purpose of erecting a new building. loyally to school In terests is a pretty fair test of American citizenship, and we are proud of our record so far. The matter will be suit milted to a formal vote later. Mr. and Mrs. Jewel t have shown a generous spirit In offering to donate a block of land well located for a school house, while Mr. Lanterbacb will permit the directors to sell the old building to be removed from the land and the pro ceeds of sale will go into the treasury of the district. The residents at the west end would like to see the building erected further west than the Jewett block, and there is talk of another offer of a site. Underwood Brevities. People are busy these days at Under wood, and very little of general interest is happening. Will Underwood carried the mail to Hood River, Tuesday, Jim Haynes hav ing decided it was about time to enjoy vacation. A. L. Haynes and Matt Russell, the two rival Hood River barbers, passed through Underwood Sunday morning, on their way to Buck creek, in the Chenowith country, where they ex pect to rest from their labors and to land the festive mountain trout. The Menominee Lumber company has had a scow and pile driver at the mouth of White Salmon since Monday, driving piling for a log boom. Amos Underwood crossed the Colum bia in the high wind Wednesday morn ing with a crowd of 20 mill men from Chenowith, who were on their way to Hood River to cash their pay checks. Pine (.rove Gleanings. Mrs. John Mohr is building an addi tion to her house. Sears Porter have the finest crop of apples this year ever grown in Hood River valley. Their Spitzenburg and INewtowns are a lull crop, and a more uniform lot of apples could not be grown any where. His eight year Newtown trees will bring him $1,000 an acre this year. R. H.

The men arranged to purchase several cords of wood before leaving Hood River. : Notes from Lyle. Uoldendale Behlluet.

Out at Trout Lake. Uoldendale Agriculturist. There are few people at Trout Lake at present, but with the first hot August days a big hiatus is expected, as that place is too well known and popular for people to forget it. It is a place to which people turn for rest and quietude; is not crowded, cool, and just the place for Nature loverB. Fishing has not been bo good in years. Any one can catch the gamey trout, and the true angler is happy for the fish "rise" to the fly and a basketful results. Any morning you may see boys and girls in carts and bug gies hieing to the cheese factory. No one now makes butter, but everyone sells cream. It is less trouble and it pays better.

The plant is located nearStadelinan'son Trout creek. By the way, the shadow grows larger on Mount Adams.
