ood River Slacier. THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 1904. The Quarterly of the Oregon Histor ical Society, No. 1., Vol. 4, for Decem ber, 1903, lias reached the Glacier ex change table. This is the closing num ber of the volume, and with the three preceding numbers, makes 410 pages of carefully prepared historical matter di rectly relating to the "Oregon-Country," which caDnot be found In any other form. The contents of this num ber are History of the Origin and Au thorship of Bancroft's Pacific Blates Publications: a History of a History, by W. A. Morris; Pioneer Newspapers of Puget Hound, uy U. a.

Himes, assistant secre tary Oregon Historical Society, city hall, Portland.'Or. To Divide Waseo County. The Dallea Times-Mountaineer. Although very little is being said about it, a move is on foot 'to divide Wasco connty into three or more counties, and the coming election will have consider able bearing on the division question. The people of Antelope and vicinity still cherish the dream of Stockman county, a bill for the creation of which has been before the past two sessions of the legislature. They expected their county to be created by the last legisla ture, but were disappointed. However, their ardor has not been cooled by de feat, and they will try again in 1905. The people of Hood River also have asperationa to lie the seat of government to be carved out ot the western portion of Wasco county, and it will be no sur prise if they have a bill before the next legislature to create a new county. In the event of the Stockman county bill becoming a law, and a county being created out of that part of Wasco lying west of Mosier, Wasco, which once com prised all of Eastern Oregon, and a good . portion of Washington and Idaho, would represent a decidedly small scope ot territory. . Whether this bisecting of the county would be beneficial to what would be left of Wasco is a question. It would in some respects decrease county expenses, but it would at tne same nine materially reduce the volume of taxable property. If this immediate section is opposed to county division, it is time now to begin considering the question. In the next . legislature Wasco . county will have one senator and two representatives. These legislators will have much to do in either creating the suggested new counties or preventing their creation. Suppose the senator and one represen tative should be chosen from Hood River, and the other representative from Antelope, it would be any easy matter for them to pool issues, and divide the county on lines acceptable to their re spective localities. If this vicinity is opposed to county division, it would be well to consider the ' matter before candidates for the legis lature are nominated. H. C. Bateham and family returned, last week, from an extended trip in the Eastern states. They spent the winter at Paiuesville, Ohio. Mrs. N. Harris of the well-known dry goods and clothing store of The Dalles offers her entire stock of goods for sale. Those interested should read her ad in another column. Miss Grace Hobson, stenographer in the office of the Eastern Oregon Land Co. at Moro, spent the week in Hood River visiting Miss Clara Blythe and Mrs. Edward Blythe. A large number of communications reached the U lacier office last week too late for publication, notwithstanding re peated announcements that all such matter should be in by Monday. The papers on pioneer days in Hood River, by Captain 11. C. Coe and John . Marden, will be worth more than the admission price of Oregon night at the Unitarian church, Monday evening, March 21, at 8 o'clock. Price 15c. David Irwin and wife and daughter from Michigan, are visiting the family of George F. Cue. Mr. Irwin is the brother of Mrs. Coe. They come to Or egon prepared to slay a year and mav conclude to make it their permanent Home. M. H. Noble was in town Wednesday for the flint time in ten weeks. During . all this time he has been laid up at nonie irom ineeiieoisoi blood poisoning after vaccination. For a week or more he was at the point of death.. , His many friends are glad to see him about again. O. A. Wolverton of Monmouth, Or., is visiting his brother-in-law, J. L. Hersh ner, and family. Mr. Wolverton is brother of Justice Wolverton of the Oregon su preme court.

Reed, proprietor of the Spot Cash grocery, has made sale of his business to the Wood Bros., from Vancouver. Mr. Reed, in retiring from the grocery busi ness asks the Glacier to thank the nianv people w ho were his customers the past year. He is undecided just what he will do next, but say he expects to re main in Hood Kiver. "".The residence of Mr. and Mrs. 8. F. Blythe was well filled last Monday even ing with the members and friends of the Congregational Christian Endeavor so ciety, who conducted a highly successful social. Games were indulged in. which were interestingly interspersed with rec itations and musical selections. A de licious luncheon was served. The young men of Hood River are manifesting much interest in the Sun day night meetings conducted by Rev. W. G. Kliot at the Unitarian church. Klderly men, too, are attracted by the counsels of Mr. Kliot. and at last Sun day night's meeting there waa auch a sprinkling of gray heads in the aatiienne that, on motion, it was unanimously voteu to open me two concluding au inga to all men, irrespective of age. The W. W. M. Co. Use ball lut of The Dalles recently elected the follow ing officers for the vear 1904 : H F Tem ple, president; J TThompson, aetyeUry; j w .inner, treasurer; u r Bavafe,ian ager.

He was caught between the log carrier and roll way, and the musciei ot nis nip were Daaiy lacergieu. Had the wound been the least bit deep er, a main artery would have been sev ered and death from Iobs ot blood migtu have been the result. Drs. Watt and Brosius took a dozen stitches in the wound. At last reports the patient was resting easy. Yesterday's republican primaries re sulted in a sweeping victory for the Wil liamson) supporters, or Mitchell repub licans, as thev stvled themselves. East Hood River, with 18 majority, was the one precinct which went for Mr. Moody. The majorities for the Williamson tick ets in the other Hood River precincts were: West. 17: South. 5; Mount Hood,3. While there was nothing of the bit ter fight two years ago, yet things liven ed up considerably yesterday afternoon. Five four-horse teams with mill men turned the tide in the West precinct, and froze the hearts of the Moody stalwarts. Reports to the Glacier from Barrett and Mount Hood say the contests in these precincts waxed long and hot. The result throughout the valley is a repetition of the vote two years ago. Moody is said to have carried TheDalles. Following are the delegates, from the Hood River precincts: EAST HOOD HIVKR.

The Wasco county convention will be oveiwhelmlngly for Moody, with Co lumbia, Clatsop and Morrow also car ried by Williamson. Moody has a fight ing chance to carry the rest of the dis trict.

Editor Glacier: Wennw in the Golden- dale Sentinel a statement that what wus said by a correspondent In the Glacier in regard to persons voting for school bonds In White Salmon not owning the houses they lived in wus not true. We challenge them to prove anything we said in the Glacier at any time as untrue, we always aim to tell the truth, knowing full well that faNe- uood is a very weak argument at all times. If we have said anything du ring tins controversy mat was not true it was certainly not our intention. But we are so sure all we have said Is true that we -are willing' to give them a chance to test it. So far we have been merciful with them, but when we come again we will lay all things luire. - ct'BSCRIBKB. Judge Prather tells the Glacier that while lie was in The Dalles, Tuesday, he saw a letter in Sheriff Sexton's office from F. B. Barnes, who wrote that he regretB now that he decamped with a bad record behind him, and is coming back on his own volition. Barnes' de falcations have footed tip to 14.000 or $5,000. Complaints have been filed against him with District Attorney Frank Menefee, charging embezzlement from school district No. 3 of f 167. Oleta assembly of the United Artisans got out the same charges for something over 300. From a Portland paper it is learned that Attorney W. T. Hume intends bringing suit against the city of Hood River, provided the municipafity refuses to pay him for his services in the pros ecution of the saloon men last October. Some of the council members do not be lieve he deserves any recompense; oth ers feel that he could bring no legal suit against the city, while some go so far as to assert that Hume sold out to the liquor men. The whole thing causes a general smile Ex Mayor Coon believes Hume has a case against the city, and should he win, the former executive will have a smile that won't come off. New Today.

The Oregon Fire Relief Association has now in force $16,000,000 of insurance in 30,000 separate risks. This is several millions more than is carried in the state by the largest of 55 old line companies ope rating here, and that, notwithstanding the tact tnai tne association) takes no busi ness risks. The average cost per annum for insurance in this association, during the nearly ten years of its existence, has been less than half the cost in stan dard companies, and always on the easi est possible method of payment. It has thus saved to its members, during the 12 months of 1W3 alone, the enormous sum of 1118,630.50, while during the same time it paid 180 losses and had cash left in its treasury nearly sufficient to pay 180 more.

Tb Sunday evening meeting of the Emleavortrs at the Valley Christian charcii a si one of uuusual interest. The object, "Destructive Appetites," was ably wt forth by Miss Norman, the leader, who made a special address to the younger members, on the pernicious effects of narcotics upon the growing child. Mr. Cash discussed the influence of the will in overcoming ths animal ap petite, but admitted that without di vine aid most people would fail to keep their passions in subordination. Mr. Regester, in an eicellent talk.continued the same theme, calling attention to some of our lesser, but more prevalent, fault.

His suggestion, however, was lost upon Mr. Wilson, who followed with some ex tended remarks along prohibition lines. Mr. Wilson is right at home on the sub ject of local option and temperance in general, and said that it is necessary for us to vote as well as to talk, if we accom plish anything. Brother Beery closed the discussion by a few remarks on lo cal option on which he was advertised to speak ; but owing to the encroachment by the Eudeavorers upon his time and to a disquieting telegram received from his sick ones at home, he was constrained to touch the subject briefly. The sub ject for next week is: Gfreat Little Things, Frank Parker, leading. Corre sponding Secretary. A Strong Affection for Hood River. Fort land, March 12, 1904.-S. F. Blytbe,Hood River Dear friend: I Inclose a little poem with the request that you publish It for me In your paper, as a memorial of my life and ex perlence while In Hood River. I have a strong affection for that billy spot, though I waa not happy there. When I a woke on the morning of the 8th InsU, this poem was In my brain clamoring for expression. I arose and wrote It down, and now would like to use It this way, if yon do not object. I expect to visit your town In a week or two, with great pleasure, and will surely call to see you and renew the kindly feeling existing and accept the pleasant greeting I am sure to find In your office. EXALTATION. The long summer day Is ended, The birds have all gone to rest; I fold my bands In my apron With Ibe feeling that 1 am blest. With the sweetness of blossoming clover . The bright summer days have been filled, Bo lull that my cup has slopped over, And some of its sweetness baa spilled. O, the richness and depth of true loving, With IU flood or spiritual bliss, Just to know that I am living And able to feel like this! Swept Is the earth of Its sorrow, , Of It pain and Its sin for me, I sense only glad perfection ' In this hour of ecstacy. MARTHA J. POLLOCK. Church Notices. Pine Grove. Rev. J. L.
