WHITE SALMON NOTESJ
A brother of Mr. Biilsinger of White
Salmon will open a line of general mer
chandise here iu the near future.
The Uroshong residence is nearing
completion. It loom up big as its own
er in proportion.
The dance given by Crowe & Gear
hart in the hall above the new drug
store w aa a house warmer and a howling
success.
The ftore of C. M. Wolfard has been
enlarged and this is but a start in the
line of its expansion. All kind of im
pruveniRnts are going to follow. Knter
prie and progress seem to have invaded
While Salmon. Even the Silurian? aie
beginning to rub their eyes and look
around.
The West End, or Cook settlepient, is
one of the neatest and most homelike
portions of White Salmon. Go see for
yourself.
Cut rates on the river can't lact
Blway, and transportation companies
will get even in the long run, but it
makes some of our people smile as they
dig up a two-bit piece for a ride to Port
land. Of course they make up for it
when they get there and come horn
"busted."
On our dock is a notice by the D. '.
& A. company that the dock is not for
steamboats, nor for public use, is private
property, and to look at it is trespass.
As a simple decoration it is a dismal
failure and we don't know what it is for
any more. If the D. P. A A. want t
preserve it for their own exclusive ln-e
a few new planks in the flooring would be
appreciated by the trespassers who
think they have business thero.
S. C. Ziegler is digging andblastingotit
a hole in the bluff for his residence. It
will be a sightly place overlooking his
land and the river. His tillable land is
too valuable to be utilized for a building
spot.
Judge Byrkett will sell a part of his
land west of the creek and would lease
the rest for a long lease term. Here is
a chance for some man of the right sort.
The result of our bond election proves
that White Salmon is not overgrown
with moss and will stand by its educa
tional interests. If yon get in front of
the wheels they will override you. You
can't strangle the life out of our public
school. It is going to grow and expand
and people who want to retard it had
better pull back on the tailboard rather
than to lie down in front of the wheels
of the car of progress. It's a safer plan
and when you get tired we would advise
you to let go. Yelling whoa! is an in
nocent amusement, but we once knew
of a man being kicked to death, not for
yelling whoa, but because the fool would
not let go the horse's tail after he got up
his speed.
Notes From Underwood.
Mrs. Mary Olsen came home from
Kalama to spend a week or ten days on
her farm and to visit with relatives and
friends.
Mrs. Amos and Mrs. Ed Underwood
came home from the huckleberry patch
Sunday evening. They had so many
berries that Mrs. Ed Underwood and
daughter, Mrs.Brown, had to walk most
of the way home. They all got a good
soaking, for it rained most all day. They
expected to meet a team and hack at
the forks of the road, but the driver
did not fancy sitting out in the rain, so
came home before the berry pickers
came to the main road. It was almost
8 o'clock when they reached home. The
huckleberry mountain is a delightful
place for a summer outing, (especially
when it rains.)
J. J. Luckey and Abe Foley were
visitors at Underwood Sunday. They
brought over a small sized blacksmith
shop and put in the day shoeing and
resetting shoes on Will Coulter's logging
teams. "
There was a dance at Moee Thornton'
Monday night. All enjoyed themselves.
At least they all say they had a good
time.
Charlie and Mose Thornton came
home for a week's visit with friends and
relatives. Thev expect to return to
their work in a logging camp at Wood
land, Wash., where they have been
since the strawberry harvest.
SOLID FOR THB 8PBKCER.
Nearly everybody from everywhere
has expressed their opinion about the
boats.and I think it time for the Under
wood settlers to say something. We are
all tor the Spencer for the reason that
we have been treated so outrageously
mean by the Regulator liue. We ;are
all for the Spencer, and there is not .one
from this landing but will support tlw
boat as long as it stays on the river,
which we hope will be permanent.
Many a time has there beensomeone,and
very often quite a number, who would
stand on the beach and wave and -call to
the Regulator and Dalles City, but they
ncer would land. The captains would
seem to become suddenly blind when at
or near Underwood landing. But not
so with the Charles It. Spencer. It baa
passed the landing but very few .times
without landing. The few times it did
not land thero was nothing to (and for.
So, long live the Siencer. We all wish
the good luck apd prosperity to the
Spencer and h9r good-natured and ac
commodating manager and captaian
they so richly deserve.

very much furniture in a car load $1200 or $1300

mature in announcing that John Thorn
sen of The Dalle bad donated a 25
bell for onr new school building. Ws

We heard a noise the last few days as
if Mount Hood were in the throws of a
mighty eruption, but when the people
came to investigate, it was found that it

Oven.
Odell Notes.
W, P. Connaway, cashier of the Van
couver National bank, of Vancouver,
Wash., and an old time friend of the
writer, came up Saturday and spent
Sunday at the Little White Store. Mr.
Conna way's former home was Independ
ence, Or., where he was cashier of the
First National bank for several years. In
1898 he was appointed receiver of a bank
at Moscow, Idaho, which position he
held for three years, and through the
influence of Hon. Henry Corbett of
Portland secured this position, which
he filled faithfully and well to a finish.
Mr. Connaway was formerly from Mis
souri, and you have "to show him," so
I showed him Hood River valley Sunday.
It all proved a revelation to him, and,
like all strangers who look ietelligently
over our yalley and investigate its won
derful resources, was wild with enthusi
asm and gave a glowing word picture of
its future.
The recent sale of apples by the apple
growers' union at such fancy prices is
one of the best arguments in favor of
the valley that can be need, especially
so, when we remember that the larger
the output the higher the price.
The Odell brothers and Jake Lenz
passed Odell this morning for a week's
hunt at the bace of Mount Defiance.
These people are sturdy mountaineers,
as well as skillful hunters, so we expect
to have bear and venison steaks on their
return.
School opened at Odell, Monday, under
favorable auspices. Miss Blanche Wil
son, the principal, comes well recom
mended, and no doubt will do excellent
work. -'
The wood business is good this season.
Two parties from Arlington are clam
oring for all the wood the Little White
Store has, and at good prices. Mr. Con
naway informs me that, last rriday, a
large contract was signed at Vancouver
at $4.49 per cord, for four-foot wood. If
the forests are not taken care of the
wood question will prove a serious one
in a few years.
Phillip Kollas furnished the Little
White Store, last Saturday, with deli
cions Crawford peaches, two varieties of
(Trapes, and a lovely boquet of roses.
Mr. Kollas has a fine orchard and vin
vard. And knows how to keen it.. The
hills near Odell under intelligent culture
will yield fortunes untold in a few years.
H. T. Williams, of Hood River, w ho
is authority on horticulture, told me
yesterday, that he had traveled through
39 states, and that he knew of no spot
in the United States that produces the
net returns that Hood River valley is
now doing. I think this is the opinion
of all who give the matter careful study.
And the fact that the Davidson Fruit
company were the successful bidders lie
fore the apple union is worthy of note
it means that they not only have a
thorough knowledge of and strong faith
in the country, but have the ability to
handle its products in large quantities
C. A. Wyman finally closed the deal
on his place and is preparing to leave
Odell. Mr. Wyman is an excellent citi
zen and worthy the confidence of the
people with whom he Bhall cast his lot
for the future. His family will be
missed at Odell, but may the future be
bright for him and his family.
James English has sold all of his oak
wood to parties in Eastern Oregon.
