Kood Iftver Slacier THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1904. The Bickleton Newt boasts that dur ing the recent cam paign it gave no polit ical newt save that of its own party. Such 2x4 journalism was thought to be dead long ago. To keep up with the rapid atridea of bli town, Editor Pattiaon of the Condon Globe has enlarged and improved hia paper. He promises now to pull harder than ever for Condon and Gilliam conn' ty. The Globe ii a good paper in a good town. The annual report of J. L. Bristow, fourth-aasistant postmaster general, recently made public, deals at length with the rural mail service. This part of the report la of particular interest to Hood River people, and is published in another column. We got oar first glimpse this week of Timothy Browohill's new paper, the Pioneer, at Madras, Crook county. From the extensive advertising patron age extended the Pioneer, northern Crook la coming to be a well settled community. , ' "Tollers of the Columbia" slipped a cog this week, but if the readers of Paul DeLaney's Interesting story will pardon the omission this once,we prom ise hereafer to give them the remainder of the story, beginning at the break in Chapter XVII. Some of the transcontinental railroads are figuring on the use of electricity to move heavy freight trains over the Rocky and Cascade mountains. They consider this power will be cheaper than the use of coal for steam engines. ine uses o! electricity advance apace very irequeniiy. - The Journal man thinks one thing that Oregon badly needs is more laying hens. It is possibly not so much the need of more hens, foodstuff costs too much for them in this country, as it is for some one to invent hen-food that will make them lay during the winter months when eggs are 85 cents dozen. The re-election of Mayor Blowers Councilmen Bailey and . Mayes and Recorder Nickelsen, goes to show the people are satisfied with the present city administration. The men were re-elected by handsome majorities. The new and old members are known to favor the building of a sewer system and other municipal improvements, and the Glacier hopes from now on the council will buckle down to work and give the city sewer system. There has been enough talk on the matter, but results are what the people demand From the 16th annual report of the Oregon Agricultural college, it is noted that according to population, Oregon baa as Urge an attendance in the aal cultural department of the state college as any other state excepting Kansas Minnesota and Mississippi. Farming is mora and more coining to be recog nuea as a science, ana with the young men of Oregon doing good work at the agricultural college, their practical re' suits will soon be felt throughout the state. It is the farming communities from whence come a country's solid cltiteni. The East Oregonian has the following timely suggestion: Lying in the heart ot the ImalneBB districts of every city and town in Ore gon are hundreds of vacant lots owned . by men and corporations who will neither sell nor improve their proporty. These vacant lota are constantly increas ing in value because of the enterprise ol men owning adjacent property. The vacant lot escapes its share of taxation because it is vacant, while the owner of land next to it is taxed on his iui Drove ments because he hat enterpise enough to build up the town. The owner of the vacant land gets rich by the enterprise of others, pays but a pittance in taxes to support the government, and holds back the settlement of the community. The East Oregonian believes that Oregon assessors should start a concerted move ment to tax these owners of idle lots un til they will build or sell and allow the vacant land to be used for the unbuilding oiinacity. iaie city lots are like para sites, under the present tvstem of taxa tion. They earn nothing by active use, they pay but a pittance of taxes and yet grow fat in values from the reflected wealth, absorbed from activity, thrift ana enterprise oi otners. The county game warden got after C. R. Bone last week, charging him with turning Sawdust into a fish stream. Things were misrepresented to the pros ecuting attorney, but in order to avoid a lawsuit, Mr. Bone paid a small fine and wat excused. The sawdust in question is carried from the sawmill by the tame water that furnishes the power. The stream is one the sawmill makes Itself, and continues on into a draw that is merely a winter stream. This winter stream sinks into the ground in several places before it joins Odutl creek iour miles away, which would make it impossible tor Uie sawdust to reach a fish stream, save during an ex tremely high freshet, and then not en ough to endanger the lives of the fish. Mo one man has done more to make the East Side farms profitable; to make hundreds of fields of green clover, where nothing but pine trees and cheat grass grew before, and it must be annoying to nave people make complaint on very slight grounds. We hope Mr. Bone will not be bothered again. Change In Grocery Firm. A change lias been made in the per sonnel of the spot cash grocery. Wood Bros, were the former proprietors, but Lu W, Wood has retised from the firm, and will travel in the interest of the Ball Bearing Hub Co. His brother, J. M. Wood, remains in the company, and is now associated with the Smith Bros., the firm now being known as Wood A 8mith Bros. J. M. Smith has been clerking in the Spot Cash grocery lines coming here-over a year ago, and bis brother, H. C. Smith, was formerly in the employ of the Davidson Fruit Co. Mr. Smith states that he is well eatis fled with the business his store is lining. The location, corner Oak and Thud streets, would be hard to better. FARMERS DONATE MUCH GOOD FRUIT Hood River, Dec. 6. Editor Glacier: When last week's Glacier came to hand I turned as usual to the editorial page (or intellectual pabulum, but when I read in your leader that the farmers of the valley "contributed nothing toward making Hood River known to the out line worm 1 was nllert with amaze ment. I exclaimed "Can this be? Is it it possible that 1 hold in my hands the Hood River (jlacier?Surelv this must be The Dalles Chronicle." But thecrption "Hood River Glacier" stared me" boldly in t lie lace. While struggling with my thoughts the old story that is told ol Lokinan, sur numed the wise, came vividly before me. It W'll be remembered that Iik- man lived in the days of Solomon or thereabouts. One Uy his muster, who was a kind man, gave li i tit a kind of melon called the colonouintida. which is one of the bitterest things in the world. Lokman immediately ute it all up without making faces or showing the least dislike. His master quite surprised said :"Ilow was it possible tor you to swallow so nauseous a fruit?" Lock man replied, "I have received so many sweets from you that it is not wonderful that I should swallow the only bitter fruit you ever gave me." Asa reward for this generous and grateful answer, the slave was immediately given his liberty.; no that by reasoning Unit human nature is much the same in all ages, 1 saw no cause to be offended at your editorial. The good things that our be loved home paper has said of we farm ers in the past ami the confidence we Have that more good things will follow, makes your terrible arraignment, whet h er in earnest or otherwise seem almost like a benediction. If it were not that I fear this criticism of us in your widely read paper might cause the people of many lauds to look upon Hood ltiver farmers asaconlempt- ihle lot of Hhylocks, 1 would not have taken up my pen in defense. The truth of the matter is Hood River farmers bn the most public spirited, whole sotiled fel lows on earth, but they are modest and are given to not telling their left ham what their right hand doeth. it is true that some money tins been paid to growers this fall for fancy up' pies in box lots for exhibition purposes but demands of this sort are becoming so fremient these days thut many grow ers wuonu urciiurus are young couio soon find recipients whose only return would be, "thank you," for every box of fine apples they grow. Heveral years must elapse before an orchard yields profit, and many growers can he found who are anxiously awaiting the com forts and conveniences which apple money will bring. The town people bore a generous part in the work of gutting up the Into fruit fair, hift it must be remembered that much time and labor was also expended by every exhibitor, Io select, polish pack and deliver for exhibition 10 to 20 boxes of fancy apples is a bigger task than most persons suppose. Few growers are capable of putting up fruit in competitive style and the services of an expert packer must usually be ob tained. After all this trouble and ex pense, which easily amounts to 60 cents a box, it would not have been reasonable to ask each and every grower to give away iu to fill worth ol Iruit J t can easily be -seen that our bi-en- mul shows are only made possible by the co-operation and strenuous efforts of Hood River's enterprising horticu turists, and besides this thousands of plates of our choicest apples have been donated by them for exhibition in 1'ort- lumi ami elsewhere tor more than a decade. The real estate mini comes to us often for choice samples to send to clients all over the land, and who ever heard of him or his seed begging up pies lor this purpose and going away empty Handed. As before intimated, much is being done Dy every grower which does not attract much attention at home. Facts and figures on this are not easily ol tainable, but I heard not long ago of five boxes of choice Hood ltiver upples going Irani a grower, free and prepaid: to Yale college. In like manner another box found its way to Hryn Mawr, where the blushes on the apples are said to have outrivaled the blushes of the fair students who mode away with them. 1 he entire Hi. Loins police force ale uoou uiver apples which the grower sent them without cost. Twenty-live crates ol strawberries were sent abroad (roe by the owner of one plantation. Ten boxes o( cherries from another producer went tree to the urcpon exhibit at nt Louis. 1 be loiter carriers, some 70 in all and their (amities, of I'ortlaud.all re centiy ate apples without cost to any one but the orchard ist. The Grangers who visited Portland u fortnight ago were all fed on apples do omed uireci irom me growers. 1 also have positive knowledge of single boxes of apples thut have been sent east, west, north and south to friends of of the growers. One grower has sent from one to four (sixes of friiit every year of the six yeara he has lived in the valley to friends in Iowa and .Nebraska, and every visitor that comes to Hood River valley goes away, if he goes t all, with his grip or one coiner of his trunk well packed with these apples of Eden. hue the combined farmers of Komic River are to bo commended for giving away 30 boxes of apples, don't (or pity s sake compare this isolated esse with the efforts which the Hood River, farmers have made along this line for years past. If the farmers of Hood Uiver valley had not been equally as generous and lorosighted as the business men of the town, the fame ol our fruits would not have extended far beyond the mountains that rurround us. . H. E. II. 'Twas a Merry Dancing Party. One of the most enjoyable social events of the season was the dancing party given at the o'rn bouse lust Friday evening by the ladies of the Itathhonc Sisters, assisted by the Knights of Pythias. The committees from these societies spared no efforts to make the party one long to be remembered bv the pleasure loving people of Hood River, and the universal compliments so heartily ex pressed by those present, prove' how well they succeeded. The hall was appropriately decorated with national and lodge colors, and festoons of that most beautiful autumn plant, Oregon grape, ornamented the walls, while the stage was banked with palms and ferns ami the choicest of autumn ttowevs. A large company of invited guests had gathered and promptly at 9 o'clock the hall was opened with toe grand march led by Major Booth. It was a congenial company and every dunce was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Lunch j was Bervea ai n:;i, and the nicrrv --- - t uaucriB m' noon again upon me noor. ; i min.r Micv aiiev aim ins pianist, Miss Brace, responded promptly with such excellent music that almost every number was heartily encored. .

Diis was the first of a series of danc ing parties to be given during the win ter by the R. S. aud K. of P., and the friends of these popular and progress ive societies will anxiously await the next one, knowing that its success as a social event is already assured. FIRST TICKET IS SUCCESSFUL Tlio city election Tuesday resulted in a clean sweep for the Citizens' and Tax payer' ticket, with the one exception of recorder, J. R. Nickelsen, the present incumbent, being re-elected i ver the regular nominee. There was some opposition developed during the day, and carriages were kept busy hustling voters to tho polls. The total vote was 280, an increase of 11 over one year ago. The result is a virtual indorsement of the present administration, and went to show that the people designated their choice for mavor and councilmen at the Monday night mass meeting in the opera house.
