Kood Iftver Slacier THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1904. A Chicago produce paper wants the price of applet down where the consum p tion will, give every one three a day to eat. Again Hood River leadi all towns of iti size and aome that are larger. Tliia . city wai the flnt of many in the North west to conclude the contest that sent ' a popular young lady to the world's fair. At The Dalles the contest began two weeks before the one at Hood River and it is feared the contest cannot be closed by the last of this month. Because he found it impossible to col lect bad debt, J. A. Douthit, has been forced to suspend publication of the Times-Mountaineer. This paper was established in 1864 as the Mountaineer. In 1882 it was consolidated with the . Times. It was one of the oldest papers , in Eastern Oregon. Mr. Douthit, who has conducted the paper for the last nine years, Is a forceful editorial writer and a newspaper man of ability, but friendly support on credit will kill any newspaper.

WILL HAVE NOSEWERS The citi&ens of Blowers addition.Coe's First anal Third additions to Hood Riv er, and those people livng on the west end of Oak, River and Columbia streets, swooped down upon the conncilmen at the session in the city hall Monday night with petitions and remonHtrances yards in length and containing the names of every property holder in the additions described, all of them object ing in strenuous tones to the extension ol the proposed sewer system so as to include their lands. The citizens, after the recorder read their complaints, were permitted by Mayor Blowers to voice their sentiments in speeches to the council. They were all of one sentiment. They didn't need the sewer ;wotnun l attach it the system was built; the assessments were consid ered unfair, and furl hermore the pay ment of the same would work too great a hardship on the property owners. Among those who had something to say on the subject were lr. immble, 11. V. Coe, S. A. Cnapp, E. L Rood, W. 11. letiKh, Slid before lliev got through. U B 1 1 i rt lev wanted to know if the conn cil would irunt his petition if he should get up one to cutout of the sewer district all tliat part 01 Hood Kiver lying west of Fourth street, or Dallas' corner. K. L. Rood thought the whole town should be taxed to build the sewer. . Councilman McDonald thought the petitions against the sewer would be a good thing to keep on file. Early ex pressed the opinion that without sew ers in Blowers' addition the city water trom l;oe springs would soon become contaminated and unlit for use. For that reason Hartley thought they needed a sewer more upon the hill than down in town, as the sewage is now washed dow n to the lower level by the rains. To the remark that the whole city should lie taxed to raise the money for building the sewer, Mayor Blowers ans wered that to do h i the charter must be changed. This would require an act ol the legislature. It was finullv moved that the citizens petitioning to lie let out of the sewer did' trict lie cut off. The motion carried. A petition from E. Hauiuel and oth ers living on the hill asking that prop erty owners who have Btreets fenced up should be notified to have the fences re moved. The committee 011 streets and public property was instructed to notify the owners to have the fences taken down, and if they did not comply with the request, the Btreet coinmei-Hioner is to see that the fences are removed. Hand, chairman of the fire and water committee, reported that an agent for a chemical engine hal given him prices and was desirous ol placing an engine in Hood River. double 3fi-gallon engine costs, equipped, fHou; a 65-gallon, $700 l'rather favored the city buvinif an en gine and organizing a fire brigade. Early moved that the matter be left to the lire and water committee to secure the best prices from the agent. .arly moved that the judiciary com mit tee nrennre an onlinai.ee uniliihit. ing all mixing contests in the city of Hood River. V, A. Bell introduced an ordinance asking for a franchise to erect electric railways on the streets ot Hood Kiver His agreement, was to complete a rail way between the O. R. & N. depot and the bout landing within a year, and to have a line extended over the whole city within ten years. The mutter was re ferred to the commit u on streets and public property. An ordinance was presented from the Hood River Electric Light, 1'ower. and water company asking for a ten-year contract with the city to furnish water for fire protection, domestic pui'oscs and for flushing sewers. The contract stipulates that the city Is to supply 25 hydrants ami to pay a monthly rental 01 IO lor the same. 1 lie water com nanv auree to have the system installed within 12 months from the time the con tract is granted. The matter was re ferred to the com 111 it tee on fire and water.

The young ladies of the Pine Urove neigh borhood of the East Side arranged last week to entertain the young men at a leap year party at the home-of Joe Jarvis.

Merrill. SOME LATE DISPATCHES Ry Grapevine Telegraph. Mount Defiance, October 6, 1904. About three weeks ago a bachelor who has a homestead southeast of Par kertown quietly left for Spokane and returned w ith a handsome bride, who has agreed to share his fortune and help subdue the wilderness. The bride and groom, Mr. and Mrs. Caldwell, will be "at home" after October 10, on "Motherhood Homestead," which is finely located overh ok ing the West Fork of Hood river with Mount Hood at the south. The name ol their home is suggestive and their host of friends are unanimous in wishing that their joys may lie many, their troubles few and "little ones." There are still several bachelors left in this locality, who should muster up the neceesar) courage to follow this brave leader, except that they need not leave leave Hood River while we have such a promising crop ol bachelor girls to select from. One in this locality, with a literary turn anil a classical name has a nice farm, well tilled It would make one of Hood River's progressive bach elor girls no end of happiness to locate in mis mountain retreat, ueip w mini the pumkins, comb the old man's hair with a three-legged stool occasionally, and ride to town behind old Major. Then there Is a rising young attorney who has a very desirable property in this locality, who looks as lonesome as the last rose ol summer when he is seen bucking out the stumps where he will soon be gathering hundreds of bushels of big red apples. Tins disciple ol Kent and lilackstone, although of a shy and unasuming disposition, is clear and log ical in his deductions, surely only needs be retained in his own case to enable him to plead successfully with a frugal, industrious bachelor girl, and she will not boo-hoo about It much either. There is still another who has lately carried ft way the highest honors of his class at one of the best seats of learning in Oregon. He is a born commander, having won the gold medal as the be-t drilled non-com. in the contest at his military exam. His farm is near those mentioned in above dispatches. Here is a case of latent energy, undeveloped resources, and it is plain, too, that it is an instance similar to Scott's Roderick I'liu, whose "blast upon his bugle was worth k thousand men." But there is evidence that there is hope in this case and that a fair haired, blue-eyed dam sel will give soon the bugle-call that will arouse tins young warrior and cause him to rush to (her) arms with as much ardor as the little brown men at l.aio Yang. One more favorable cir cumstance is that they can secure from his father's stores provisions to supply their matrimonial siege against a long hard siege. Another young man just blossoming into bachelorhood, is a distinguished musician, has had an extensive exper ience as a hotel man. and with his knowl edge of entertaining and catering toihe puoltcmigliteasily convert his mountain into a famous summer resort. It's Leap Year, girls, your last chance for four years. If you aie as anxious to help these young fellows out of the wil derness of os single cussedness as is the (j lacier to promote the interests ot its patrons, call and we will point them out to you.

Froren combe decrease egg produc tion; therefore In the north country the fowl with a double comb is far less liable to duffer from freezing tbau the one with a single comb. The completion of the Panama canal will greatly emphasize the importance of the Mississippi river as a water way and the gulf porta as points of export for the products of the central west. China produced 2,000,000,000 pounds of tea in 1003. The experiment sta tion In the Carolinas produced 0,000 pounds. The growing of tea is only possible where tUe cheapest of hand labor can be obtained. There Is a good demand for blooded stock, particularly cattle and sheep, in the Argentine Republic. A lot of fair ly good Hereford bulls and cows were recently sold there, which brought eight times is much as they cost in this country. The field mice, which bare been bo unusually numerous the past year all over the west, not -only made ruinous havoc In the apple orchards, but also barked evergreen trees to such nn ex tent as to destroy them. There Is dire need of more owls, hawks and cats. The woman who has been worrying over her Incubator, setting 160 eggs and getting six chickens, can afford con siderable satisfaction to her uelghbor who has ten old hens bring off eighty chicks by calling on her. The pleasure in living Is so largely made up of this sort of contrasts. It is claimed that they have a plant in Ilawall the Juice of which applied to the toughest meat will make it as tender as spring chicken. The agri cultural department at Washington would do the people a great service by looking this matter up, for there are all too many old farrow cows and an cient roosters on the market to be dis posed of somehow. An Iowa boy wants to know how to grow peanuts In that state. We do not think It can be successfully done so far as attempting to grow them as field crop, the seasons not being long enough or hot enough. There are many years when lima beans, eggplant, mel ons snd other semltropical things have a hard pull to mature, and we should class the goober with them. I Dance Friday Night, October 14.
