0 HOOD RIVER GLACIER " Issued evrr Thursday by AKTHUR D. MOB. PablUhf. Iirni ol subscription 1.M rw iu jH4 IB SdYI)C. THURSDAY, MARCH 16, 1905. On the Political Horizon. Among those who are being men tioned for the republican nomination for Governor next year are C. A. Johns, of Baker City, Judge L. R. Webster, of Portland, I. L. Patterson and T. T. Goer, of Salem, Dr. James Witbycombe, of Oorvallis, M. A. Moody, of The Dalles, Dr. W. Kuyken dall, of Eugene, Judge II. L. Benson, of Klamath Falls and our own E. L. Smith of Hood River. Mr. Smith modestly declares he has no gubernatorial aspirations. He has never sought political honors. Nevertheless he stands well in the lead among the prominent men of the state. He would be a credit to Ore gon in the govenor's chair. Claude Uatch, P. T. Wrightman, and Lot L. Pierce, of Salem, are be ing boomed by their friends for sec retary of state, while W. H. Hobson, of Stayton (Marion county), E. V. Cartor, of Ashland, and Dr. R. E LeeSteiner, of Lakeview, are talked of for state treasurer. It is also un derstood that J. R. Whitney, state printor, will be a candidate for re election. There are numerous would-be can didates for the republication nomi nation for Congress In the first dis trict. It is generally understood that Dinger Herman will not be a candi date for reelection. Walter L. Tooze, "the man that made Woodburn fam ous," Colonel E. II of or, editor of the Capital Journal (Salem), and Wm. I, Vawter, representative from Jackson and Douglas conuties are said to be candidates for Congress in the first district, and the little birds say that I. II. Bingham, of Lane county and P. R. Kelly, of Linn, are listening with attentive ears to the buzz of the Cngressionai bee. Should Judge liar ris of Eugene decide to enter the race he oould fdoubtless sooure the nomination without much trouble. As "Bob" Veatoh and J. K. Weath- erford are tired of being trotted out for the biennial slaughter,- Robert Ulen Smith, the "gentleman from Jo sephine," will probably be the dem ooratlo candidate for oougress In the first district. In the second district it would be presumptuous to make forecasts at this distant date. That there will be a shaking up in this district seems apparent. There may be a turning over In Wasco county. When the wol fare of a community is thwarted to assist the interests of an individual politician, there is frequently a revolt lu this day aud age. Any sort of a democrat would bejpreferred to certain republicans, if it must be certain re publicans. With two congressmen, a governor, a full state tioket, and a legislature due to select a United States senator all to be nominated and elected next year, there cortaiuly will be big things doing lu Oregon politics. The business men of Medford have taken $17,000 of stock in the Medford k Crater Lake railroad, which will be built this year as far as Eagle Point. The railroad will tap a very rich tim ber country.

We had just done congratulating ourselves on the mildest winter for Hood River in the history of the city when on Febru ary 10th the weather man started in to see what a jolly time he could make for us, reminding us of the days back in the old Hawkeye state when the weather used to freeze up so hard it would break oft in chunks. The mercury began to go down in the tul io just like there was a hole in the bottom, until the night of the 11th, when it reigstered 2 degrees above zero, the coldest record made since January 1902, when the lowest Point reached was 3 below, On the Llth the temperature began gradurally to rise and at the eud of the mouth the max! mum stood C2 and the minimum 44 above. The highest point reached in the month was 08 on the 24th aud the lowest was 2 on the night of the 11 th. Precipitation was very light for Feb ruary, only 1.22, which Included the 4-inch fall of snow on the 10th, at which time we were treated to the dust storm. On the evening of the 19th there were several loud peals of thunder off toward Mount Hood which gave rise to hopes of rain, but the month cloned as dry as tho municipality of Hood Klver. Since 1884 there have been but two other years when the precipitution during the month of Febrnarry. was as light as that of this year: 18K9, when the precipitation was .05 of an inch, and 1895, when it was 1.10. There were 10 clear days, 6 partly cloudy and 12 partly cloudy. FAVOR BONDING TO GET WATER When a rising vote was taken by the farmers at their meeting Tuesday afternoon at the Barrett school bouse, some GO declared themselves in favor of forming a bonding district for the construction of an irrigating system, and about 20 voted in the negative. The members of the county court Judge Lake and Commissioners Hib bard and Btaughton mot that after noon with the farmers in order to get an understanding of the proposition set forth in the petition of the Barictt farmers. In the forenoon the mem bers of the court wore shown over the farming lands in the proposed irrigat ing district by J. H. Sheomakor, one of the leaders in the movement for the bonding district. In the afternoon 100 farmers gath ered at the school bouse, and at 1 :45 were called to order by F. O. Sher rleb, who, lu the absence of Chair man Anims. was presiding ollicer for the meeting. C. E. Markham was secretary. That the farmers needed more water was not disputed. How best to got it was the proposition in tne minus oi all. A great majority of those present had very decided opinions that by creating a bonding district of the farming lands within tne proposed irrigating district the water problem oould be best solved. Others believed the bonding proposition the most un wise mothod of solution. Those favoring the bonding scheme explained that there are but 250 oi 275 inches of water available for 10, 7U' acres of laHd. They were convinced that a ditch could be constructed lor mum or less, that would bring out sufficient water to meet the needs of the farmers for years to come. The farmers must have the water and they cannot see any other way than by bonding to get it. All other schemes hnva failed. Those opposed to the bonding idea said it will take an expenditure of tfi.OOO to make surveys aud a definite estimate of the cost, which they say will not lie less than $75,000 and rimy amount to $125,000. When only the lands of those who can legally be re tallied within the proposed bonding district (are considered, the total assessed valuation of the proprety will bo only 0,000. As the irrigating ditch will cost this much if not more, where can the bonds be sold, ask those who oppose the scheme. M. P. Iseubenr started the discus slon bv declaring that if the cost of the bonding scheme was within reason he favored it. othorwlse he wanted out a nick. Chairman Sherrieb declared there was no way to get at the cost ques tion until the bonding district was formed and the assessment levied to riHV the expenses of a competent sur veyor. He believed the ditch could be constructed for $00,000 at the out side. O. R. Castner said there were 250 or 275 inches of water for present use There is no water in sight, and "what' he declared, "are our lauds worth without water? We are willing to take the chances to see what the cost will be. Estimates have been made, I beleive, that water can be brought from Sandy Flat at a cont not to ex ceed $15,000. Water we need, water wa must have, Jjet us tie ourselves together and got it." "Where are we to got water rroni anvother sonrco?" asked J. H. Shoo maker. "The country through which the ditch will have to be built olfers a difficult route over which to bring water. We must have the water, and we must pay for getting it out some time or other. If private capital nuts in a ditch we must pay enougli for rentals to return Interest on the capital invested. Some of the farmers in the foot bills wanted to know how high in water could lie brought for them, and It was explained that water from the Supply Co's. ditch would be used on the uplands, E, Locke, who lives in the extreme northwestern corner of the proposed district, declared that it would be Impossible to get water to him. He had plenty of water and would pull out of the district any way. He moved that a vote be taken to see If those who have water would be set out of the bonding district. Judge Lake arose and stated there was too much rambling otf tho qnes tlon. He could see that the farmer wanted water. What the court was there for was to find out how many wanted in the proposed irrigating dis trict and how many did not. lie was anxious to have a vote taken to show how many favored the project. Frank Davenport stated that he favored the project personally, but the lumper company of which ho was a member did not. Commissioner Hibbard then quoted the law, which states that property indirectly benefitted, even if it In) a brick building in the city, is con sidered subject to taxation in the dis trict. John Wilson moved that a vote be taken. Angus seconded tho motion. Charles E. Warrens arose to state that he had plenty of water and that be considered It uurair mat no siioum be taxed to get water for bis neigh bor, when it would not enhance t he value of his property. Chairman Sherrieb declared that Warrens got water liooatiso his neigh bors, permitted him to have it. A. A. Jayne, owner of 9S acres of land in the proposed bonding district and also attorney for those opposing the move, boileros the bonding scheme would work an injury to the property. ' 1 We want water, ' ' declared Mr. Jayue. "but we don't want to pay too much for it. There is such h thing as water being too expensive. I want to see what it will cost before I buy water. This whole scheme an pears a sort of an educationtal scheme a plan to spend loOUO to see if we can get water. "The assessed valuation of the land In the proposed district is $711,000. If all those were set out who want to get out. the value might be only $n0,tW. What would bond buyers think of such a proposition? "The thing to do is to raise money and pay for a ditch of our own. Much of the laud in the proposed district, is uot susceptible to irriagtiou from the same combined source. It would cost almost as much to enlarge the npiier ditch as to build the main ditch. According to the statute, lands within the district must be assessed in proportion to the benefit each piece separately receives. Those us ing the water would have to pay all n Never Undersold.

Castner. He llrmly believed that the vacant Jamison tract in tho Crupper distrio could bo taxed to pay its just proportion of expense in bringing out the ditch, anil taxed at an increased value because of tho water that could be placed on the bind. J. 11. Shoemaker figures out ttiat within 20 years at the usual rate per Inch, the fanners will have paid an outside company 1.")0,(KU, a Hum sulll oient, to build two such ditches as needed. A rising vote was then taleii. Cost too (ireiit Without Water. "It is not a question of how much it will cost to get water, but how much it will cost to get along with out it," remurked J. 11. Shoemaker as ho left for The Dulles Wednesday morning, to be present, when tho pe tition for a bonding district came up before the eoii'ity court that after noon. "We have tried our host to got water by other means, but (hey have all failed, " continued Mr. Shoemak er. "There is no use talking, we cannot get along without it. Tho cost, without water is far greater I ban the proposition of bonding, even though it, cost us ?10 an inch to get it in that way." ' F. C. Sherrieb accompanied Mr. Shoemaker to The Dulles.
