MAY GET KEW COUNTY.
The encouraging news from Salem is
gratifying. We hope the result o( the
vote in the house today will show it has
been passed by that body. It is said by
many that if the measure meets with
success in the house it will have little
difficulty in passing the senate.
A new county means prestige and pro
gress for Hood River. The voters here
stand as a unit for Cascade county. A
few were not strongly in favor of it at
first, fearing it might mean increased
taxes. A little explanation dispelled
this fear. There will he no need to
erect public buildings for years to come,
or not until, as the people of Sherman
county did, we find a surplus in the
treasury,
A glance at the salaries to be paid the
new officials, as shown in another col
umn, indicates there will be a great sav
ing in this matter, and there is every
reason to believe we can conduct our af
fairs much more economically than can
the office-holders at The Dalles.
The Dalles has fought us tooth and
toe-nail, and a disgraceful part of the
proceedings is the way the county offi
cials left their work at The Dalles to do
all in their power to see that Wasco
county remained intact, In order that
their fat salaries may not be curtailed
Hhould we fail yet to get our new conn
ty, Hood River will not forget how the
county officials sought to hog it all.
Chairman Burton may deny that there
exists even an implied contract between
the United Slates government and the
state of Oregon with reference to the
construction of the Celilo canal, but
he never will be able to convince him
self that the people of the Pacific
NorthweHt take that view of the matter

The qnostlon of the opening or clos
ing the gatea of the Lewi and Calrk
fair on Sundays Is one that should
be easily and promptly answered,
U'ere ure many different ways of ob
serving Sunday, and there are differ
ent days designated as Sunday. But
there Is only one day that the working
man has to himself that day Is Sun
day and the only day be will have an
opportunity to take ths family and see
the fair. Cllne Fall Express.
The news man of the Glacier passed
through Irrigon last Saturday. He
fulled to nee Editor IJennett of the Ir
rigator, but got a good glimpse of
the good things Mr. Bennett, has peen
booming through the oolumns of his
bright little paper during the twelve
months it has been In existence.
Thore Is a rospeo table sprinkling of
business housos and dwellngs In the
town of Irrigon. Everywhere there Is
mi Hipnrnnoe of thrift and the belief
that the country has a great future.
Many aores of sage brush have peen
placed uudor the plow, and stacks of
alfalfa are to be soon here and there.
Houses haven't been built fast
enough and people are living in tents.
Irrigon peoplo boast that they will
have strawberrios rlpoulng two weeks
in advance of tho Hood River ber
rlog. This may be true, but whether
thoy will withstand shipment beyond
tho looal market remains to be dem
oustnited. Be that as it may, Hood
River will have no cause to worry
lent Irrigon robs this plaoe of honors.
Irrigon has a grand future with the
in-gating system completed. In time
that locality will solve the problem of
what fruits are qoat adapted to the
soil and climute there,. Hood River
grows the Spitzonberg and Newtown
apples and Clark Soedllug strawberry.
At Irrigon, other varletes will doubt
less reach perfocton.
Billy liar Iies t Mosier,
"Uncle Hilly" Hav. a well-known old'
timer in Hood River, died Tuesday on
his farm at Mosier. Uncle Billy was
about 77 years old. The last time he
was in iiihiu nivur ne sneineu eapauie ni i
enjoying life for 20 years to come, but j
the poor old fellow, about two weeks!
ago, was nauiy iroien Dy exposure out
of doors throughout the cold night, and
it is believed the exhaustion was too
much for him.
Billy Hay was born in Scotland. He
was a genial old soul and never had an
enemy in his life. With the fiddle and
the bow he was an artist. In the late
seventies he was owner of the K. Locke I

"Eve" Droppers Invade k. of 1'. Hall.
An incident ocenred at the K. of P,
lXHlge last luesday evening showing a
neglect of duty on the part of the outer
guard that may cost him his olllcial
head.
For some reason which be has not yet
explained ttie outer door to the small
hall was left unlocked during the ses
sion of the lodgo.and alter developments
showed that it was occupied at leant a
portion of the evening, and not by mem
Dera ol the order.
Just as the gavel announced the close I

slow and tready tramp about the room,
these ghostly forms each seized a knight,
who was too much scared to resist, anil
as the music struck up, led him circling
through the room to the strains of a
dreamy waltz.
Talk about fairies and fairyland. The
visions of beauty and rapture that
raised the plumes of those knights as
they felt the warm breath of the marked
enchantresses who nestled their heads
socoqnetishly upon the knightly breasts
lifted the boys beyond the scenes of
earth to a lofty plane of pleasure,almoet
bevond human imagination.
Their short sweet dreams were sud
denly interrupted by the stopping of
trie music, ana witn it tne waltzers,
who immediately discarded their masks
and shrouds. Imagine tiie embarrass
ment of the poor knights when they
discovered they had been dancing with
their wives and sweethearts. Their
illumes fell ; some turned pale, and all
had a sheepish look, as if they had been
caught at it by those whom they would
much prefer not to have seen them in
such sweet pleasure.
But they were in for it, and as soon
as they could realize their position, be-
f;an to enjoy the splendid surprise the
adies of the Kathtxme Sisters had
given them. Several young couples had
also been invited, and all enjoyed the
evening in the mazy dance.
excellent music was furnished bv a
mandolin club from Portland. The
dance was interspersed with some good
songs. An excellent lunch was served
at 11 o'clock, and at 12 o'clock the par
ty disbursed in high appreciation of tfie
splendid entertainment furnished them.
REPORT IN FAVOR
CASCADE COUNTY
Representative Jayne telephoned the
Glacier yesterday afternoon that the
committee on counties had agreed to
report favorable on the bill for Cascade
county.
In the matter of Jefferson county
there will be an adverse report,
The reports of the committee are to be
made in the house this (Thursilay)morn
ing, and It is presumed that a vote will
be taken toilay in course of the regular
order of business,
Mr. Jayne believed matters looked
decidedly favorable for the passing of
the new county bill through both the
house and the senate.
Just what the objections were to giv
ing Antelope hor county of Jefferson
was not learned, but it is presumed
because of the many objections raisei
within the proposed boundaries of that
county.
