    'Hooi Iftver Slacier
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1904.
The Portland people who came
and saw our fruit exposition were
convinced that it would be the
right thing to send the entire ex
hibit of box fruit to the world's
. fair at St. Louis. And they were
not long in making the decision
that it must ko. Now that the
Lewis and Clark fair association
and the Portland business men
have taken the work in hand of
shipping the fruit and placing it
on display at St. Louis, all know
it will be done right. And what a
great send off it will prove to be
for the state of Oregon and Hood
River in particular. There will
be nothing like it to be seen at the
fair, and Hood River, Oregon, will
be advertised to the uttermost
ends of the earth. Thousands will
be attracted by this exhibit to
visit the Lewis and Clark exposi
tion in 1905, and of course many
of them will come to see Hood
River, the place where the apples
were grown. There will be no
end to the happy results that will
spring from the sending of this
exhibit to the world's fair. It
gives Hood River another big
feather in her cap. Real estate
will be held at stiffer prices thnn
ever. The brick blocks now in
course of construction in our city
will be followed by others in the
near future; and their owners can
go ahead in the fullest confidence
that prosperity at Hood River has
come to stay. Planting of or
chards will continue until all our
available apple land will be one
vast orchard. The Mosier section,
the White Salmon country and all
the territory tributary to Hood
River will feel the benefits to be
derived from the exhibit of our
fruit at the world's fair. And the
apple growers who made this grand
exhibit possible, the business men
of Hood River who pledged their
credit, and all who contributed to
the success of the Sixth Biennial
Horticultural Fair, have earned
the lasting gratitude of the people
of Oregon and of Hood River es
pecially. The many complimentary re
' marks regarding the success of the
fruit fair, in every particular should
be gratifying to the officers of the
fair association and the many cit
izens who have given their services
and aid in making the fair the
best in the history of the valley..
The entertainments have been first
class, and too much praise cannot
be given to the women members of
the committee who had the ar
ranging of the programme for the
various evenings.
"The Oregon exhibit is not
worthy of Oregon" is frequently
the verdict of visitors returning
from the world's fair at St. Louis.
Wait until a carload of apples
reaches there from the Hood River
fruit fair. The state's reputation
will yet be saved.
Hood River will be on hand
at the Lewis and Clark Centennial
with an exhibit that will make
you glad you live in Oregon.
And let us not forget that the
weather clerk was good to Hood
River just at the right time.
Come back again, kind friends,
in 1906.
George T. Prather and Charles T.
Early, member of the sewer committee
of the city council have itated to the
Glacier that they are determined to go
ahead with the proposed sewer system
on the original plans. They aim) state
that they have the assurance of all the
other members of the council that they
too have pledged their BUpport to the
measure. The Glacier commends the
gentlemen for their Arm stand ami
promises its support and approval iu
the effort to secure sewers (or the city
ot Hood River. While there are many
who will heap abuse upon the member
ol the council for exercising the power
delegated to them by the city council,
we believe that in two or three year
from now, when the sewer system is
completed, the very people who now
oppose the movement will be generou
enough, when they are reaping the lien-
. eflts, to accord just and proper praise
to these councllmen for their wise and
good work. The Glacier is supporting
the move for sewers because it is aware
that the health of the town demands it.
The filthy condition of the premise
about many of the private residence
in this city is something appalling. The
report of the health committee of the
council, after making an investigation
of the sink drains and water closet
about the city, brought to light some
frightful disclosures. The stench
emitted from these disease-breeding
holes is something vile. These state
ments are indelicate, but the indeoent
triitU win mil Inaip HtlaronM Th.
city council has worked out what wt
believe to be the; most feasible plan ol
. navme it. and while it mav work a tern-
- porary hardship on some of the citizens,
Hood River certainly will not go befo-e
the world as a place where the inhald-
tants prefer to live in filth rather th:in
spend a little money to Insur them a
healthful and beautiful place of abode.
The statement of the law, which gives
the city council authority in tli s matter,
is made clear by the letter from Attor
ney W. H. Wilson, as published else
where in this week's Glacier.
HAS POWER TO
BUILD SEWER
That Hood River will have a sever
system seems now assured, the numer
ous remonstrances to the contrary
notwithstanding. The members of the
sewer committee of the city council
have secured legal advice from their
attorney, W. II. Wilton of The Dulles,
who assures the committee tl at 'hey
have the absolute power to 1 1: Id a
sewer system, when the lieultli of the
city demanJH, whether the probity
owners benefitted favor the ysteiii or
not.
The follow ing letter from Attori ey
Wilson explains the situation:
In talking witli Mr. Karly, of your
committee, yesterday lis asked me
whether or not the Common Council of
the City of Hood Hier has the power to
construct a sewer in esse a remonstrance
ugaint its construction should be
signed hv all the owners of property
that aill be directly benefited by the
sewer. I he qiies'iou asked hy Mr.
Karly, as I understand it, i, if all tiie
owners ot property a Inch would lie
directly benefited by a Fewer or sewer
system should oipoe its coin-tructiiii,
would the council stiil have the power
to cm. struct the sewer over the nppi i-i-tion
o ul! the ounces of the property,
and ii Hess the comih i f the sewer Uon
the property directly bent hteil therei y.
I have looked ll.i matter up and ill
say that the Council has full and com
plete authority in the matter, and even
if the construction of the ewer should
he oppured hy all property owiieis, the
Council by a two-thirds vote might still
proof d to construct t e sewer and
assess its costs upon the property direct
ly benefited.
In the case of Htrnwhridge vs. the
City of Portland, Or., (17, the Supreme
Comt of the State of Ori gon said :
J lie elalMirate manner pointed out
n the charter for acquiring the author
ity to construct the street improvement.
does not apply to the construction of
sewers. The latter may lie laid when,
in the judgment of the city council, the
tame shall be necei-sary. They may be
made without previous notice, the Conn
cil alone being the judge of their neces
sity. Sewers are required as a part of
the sanitary regulations of the city to
prevent the development of local dis
orders, and generally to preserve the
public health. It may, and often does
happen in populous towns, that active
measures have to lie taken by city
authorities in sanitary regulations, and
it would not be wise to leave so impor
tant a power, often requiring the most
prompt exercise, to the tardy mode pro
vided for inaugurating street improve
ments." This was afterward cited in the case
of I'oulsen vs. the City of Portland, 1(1
ure. 4&ti.
This decision was afterward modified
in the case of Wilson vs. the City of
Salem, 24 Ore. 604, so far as that case
holds that sewers may he constructed
and the costs taxed unon the nroncitv
directly benefited without notice. The
last named case holding that notice
must be given to the owners of the
property, and they must be given an
opportunity to be heard concerning the
amount and portion of the cost which
should be assessed upon their property
Ho far as the case relates to the power
of the Council to construct sewers with
out obtaining the consent of the prop
erty owners, the case of Strowbridge vs.
Portland is still law. Section 5& of the
chatter of Hood Uiver refers to remon
strances. That Section refers to street
improvements, but by taction 05 of the
charter it is also made to appiy to sew
ers. Hut you will observe that alter a
remonstrance is tiled, it is still within
the power of the Council by a two
thirds vote to proceed the same as if no
remonstrance had been tiled,
The power of the Council is absolute.
and it has the right to exercise that
power and construct sewers when it
deems them necessary, whether the
work is opposed by all the property
owners or not.
TURNS DOWN
WATER OFFER
The council Monday nivht turned
down good and hard the offer from the
Hood Kiver Wectric Light, ater and
Power Co. to furnish water for tiro pro-
Wet ion for the period of ten years.
Manager Vorse was present. Securing
permission to addrecs the council, he
wanted to know in w hat particulars the
proposed ordinance offered by him was
unsatisfactory to the council.
Councilman Itttml replied that the
city did not want to pay for the hydrants,
costing ah mt flu each, lie wanted to
know if the company hud a riilneient
supply of water for present and future
purpose.-, and w hy the company hud not
offered to put up a bond to complete
the work within the specified time
should the council grunt the contract
asked for.
To these quoa.ions Mr. Vorse replied
that his company would agree to put iu
inu nyurunia proviiieu lliccouiu'il would
give them a 15-year contract. U they
find they have not Butllcient water from
the present supply, the company expect
to pump water from Hood river. The
mutter of offering bonds w as a mere
oversight which he was will ng to recti-
Mayor Wowers wanted assurance that
the citizens on the hill would be given
tire protection. He did not reiiard it
just that the citizens on the hill should
pay for something that would be of no
direct nelietit to them.
Vorse said he would put hydrants on
the hill if the council considered the 50-
foot head there sulKcient pressure.
Councilman Prather said there was
no need of 25 hydrants in the city of
Hood Kiver. Taxes are heavy enough
now, he declared. In his opinion, the
proper method for securing tire pro
tection would e to have the city char
ter amended and a lamd issue voted to
put in a hre. system for the benefit ol
the whole city.
Mr. Vorse replied that his company
would cut the number of hydrants if the
council so desired. To the remark that
a stand pipe should lie placed on the
hill, the Light Co's. manager declared
such to be out of the question. The
Water company does not propose to do
something lor nothing.
Early declared he would vote to give
the Water company a contract when
they offered a reasonable price and in
eluded the residence on the hill in the
proposed fire protection system district

If the company w ml I sec ire the Mount I
Defiance gprinxs and bring the city
water from there, Mr. Karly declared he
would vote to give the company a 25
year contract.
To this, Vorse replied the company
could not consider such a p-oposition.
The springs are held for $10,000.
Councilman Prather then moved that
the judiciary committee be instructed
to prepare amendments to the ciiy
charter, that they may be included in
the bill to be presented to the next ees
sion of the legislature, which meets in
January. The motion prevailed, there
being one affirmative and no dissenting
votes.
Early in the evening a remonstrance
to the proposed sewer, headed by J. J.
Turner and containing about 24 name ,
asking that all that part of the city
west of Fourth street and north of State
Btreet, be cut from the proposed sewer
district, was, on motion of Councilman
Karly, promptly tabled.
The street committee, having in
charge the request for an electric street
car franchise from (J. A. Bell, asked to
have further time in which to report.
Mr. Hell was present and arranged to
meet with the members of the commit
tee, as he said the matter of time was
an important factor a ith him. He in
tends to build the line as soon as the
street to the water front is opened and
ho is granted a franchie.
Councilman I'm' her stated for the
sewer committee that there was no re
port, there being nothing to work on.
An ordinance providing for the dedi
cation of a street to the boat landing
was read a second time and placed on
final passage.
Sidewalks were ordered constructed
on the east side of Irving street from
State street to Kiver street, and on the
south Bide ot htate street Irom Winan a
corner to connect with the walk contin
uing east from Front street, and on the
west side of Second street between
State street and Sherman avenue.
The following claims against the city
were ordered paid :
Iv S. Olinger, marshal salary $50 00
J. M. Smead, labor 9 00
Oregon Lumber Co., lumber 6 72
In the absence of Kecorder Nickelsen,
Councilman Prather kept a record of
the minutes.
URGES CARE
INPACKING
C. II. Rodgers, horticultural commis
sioner and president of the Orchardists'
association, Watsonville, Cal , returned
Tuesday, after spending a week in the
valley, attending the fruit fair and
visiting tin apple orchards.
Mr. Hodgers is so interested in the
great progress Hood River is making in
the apple business that he came all the
way from California to attend the fruit
fair. Watsonville is the great atmle
section of California, but Mr. Hodge's
declares the fruit there cannot compete
with the hiith color, flavor and size of
the Hood River SpiUenliergs. Watson
ville produces hrst-clafi ftewtowns and
ltellflowers, but for a general display of
many varieties, and particularly the
favorite commercial varieties, no place
can equal Hood River.
Hood Kiver has a name that is worth
from 50 cents to II on each box of annles
grown here, but he says the orchardists
must ie very ciirelut to live up to their
reputation, lie was very glad to see
thot all fruit here is packed under the
supervision ot an association. When
ai mers pack their own apples there is
too great a temptation to place iu infer
ior fruit. In order to preserve a Inch
standard pack there must be close in
spection of all fruit that goes into the
Imxes. Hits point Mr. Rodgers consid
ered a very important one for Hood
Kiver. lhe valley has established a
reputation that is valuable, and every
effort must be made to maintain the
same.
Watsonville has about 12,000 acres
planted to apples, but less than half
this area is now in bearing, says Mr.
Rodgers. That country first csme into
commercial prominence as an apple
country about 1H80, w hen apples there
brought very fancy prices. Some of
them sold for :t and more a box. The
apple men out up a careful pack in
those days, but the growers became
cureless and the country received a
serious setback. Mr. Rodgers savs the
larmers are again forming associations,
and are once morn taking to a system
of careful grading and packing of " their
fr u it.
Mr. Rodgers was glad to see that the
local nurserymen exercised much care
in the selection of grafting scions.
Kqually great care must be taken in
selecting the fittest specimens of fruits
and plimts for purposes of propagation,
as is employed by the breeder of fancy
stock. This is another point Mr. Rodg
ers considered worthy the attention of
the orchardists here. Hy sclcctint'
grafts from only those trees that are
known to have produced the largest,
the most highly colored and the most
perfectly shaed apples of their kind,
and budding them to healthy, vigorous
trees the result, by following the high
standard of cultivation so thoroughly
understood here, will be the production
of the finest apples in the world.
Mr. Rodgers considers that no coun
try in the Northwest has the bright
prospect that are now before Hood
Kiver. .

collectively, that every desire has lieen
anticipated and every want supplied;
and as your surroundings are sublime
and your productions superlatively fine,
by so much we wish that you shall con
tinue to enjoy for many years to come
the reputation you so richly deserve.
And, further in this connection, we
oommend the energy ami enterprise dis

GIVE MONEY FOR
TROUT LAKF ROAD
Mordecai J nes of Husiim was in
Hood River Wednesday, soliciting sub
scriptions from the business men of the
city to iisi-t in defray ng the expenses
of the new road in cnire of construc
tion between Trout Lake and Under
wood landing.
This road will cost about $1500, and
as the counties of Klickitat and Skama
nia exhausted their funds in the con
struction of the bridge at the mouth of
While Salmon, at a cost of $1800, the
citizens of Western Klickitat county are
compelled to build the road by popular
subscription. The farmers of Trout
Lake and Camas Prairie have pledged
$I2IK) and ask Hood River toassist with
the balance of $300.
This road furnishes a direct route for
the Trout Lake and Camas Prairie
country to the Columbia river, making
the distance Bhorter by nine miles in a
round trip than by tho old road to the
White Salmon dock. A high grade of
1000 feet is also eliminated.
Mr. Jones informed the Glacier that
Amos Underwood has a deal on hand
for selling his ferry to gome one with
capital who proposes to establish a
steam ferry between Underwood land
ing and Hood River. This will give the
people of the north side of the Columbia
river a much quicker route to the rail
road, and will be the means of Hood
River securing the large amount of trade
from that country that now goes to
Portland.
Mr. Jones estimates that there are
2000 people in the tJpper White Salmon
valley.
In Favor of Franklon.
An interesting game of base ball be
tween the Hood River second team and
the Frankton school team resulted in
the score of 9 to 11 in favor of the Frank
ton boys. This is their first game, and
and they boys did fine.
The chief features of the game were
two double plays by the F'rankton boys
and one by Hood River. Chark-y Hart
and Mr. Easterly were batteries for the
Frankton team. The same teams will
play next Sunday afternoon at 2:30
o'clock.
