HOCl) KIVER GLACIER, THUKdDAY, MAY 4, 1905 WATER ISSUE STILL IN AIR (Continued From Pkko 6.) APPLE UNION WILL ERECT WAREHOUSE "We can either tfo ahuad with the bonding scheme," remarked H. K Davidsou, "or take water from Mr. Hone, or as the chairman miKKesti! buy water or go without it. If euoiiKh of the farmer favor the bondinK scheme, I believe we should carry it out, as we can serve ourselves better than Mr. Bone can." Mhhoii declared he would vote for bonds if a majority of the people wanted bonds. In his opinion if wa ter in a lieneflt to the farmers, a debt of eveu 110 an acre against the land could easily be lifted. There whs considerable discussion from the hay men relative to the value of water on clover, V. Winoholl believ ing it to be uneconomical to raise too much hay, there boin 400 tons to car ry over from last your.and if this lskept up the price of hay will drop below the price of production. Mr. Winchell wanted the farmers to go without water this coming year, in order to demonstrate the damage they received from seepage, and make it posisble to sue the irrigating com pany for damages. Mr. Winoholl went on to state that this disturbance of the farmers over the question of wa ter contracts was created by the ditch company with the idea of bringing abdht a sale of the system to the farm- era. "Hut it Is my opinion that we don't want the ditch," said Mr. Win chell. August Paasch declared that water did his orchard no good last year, and that he would not use it again. A rising vote showed 22 farmers in favor of appointing a committee of three to make arrangements for a bonding election. Twelve voted no. II. F. Davidson, L. D. Hoyed, 1). II. Thome, I). L.

The committee appointed at Pine Grove to arrange matters lor an election on the irrigation district bonding issue mot luvsday in this city. As Mich a mull proportion of the Kast Side evinced a desire to proceed with the bunding scheme, the committeemen in form the Glacier that they believe it useless to take the time and expense necessary to go ahead with the pronosi tiun, ami unless at least two-thirds of the farmers indicate their willingness to go ahead with the undertaking, the committee feels that it will have notli ing to do. "We are willing, though, "said II. F, Davidson and 1., 1). Hoyed, "to proceed with the undertaking whenever the farmers declare themselves ready, but as the situation now stands there is nothing for us to do." Terrific Race With Death.

The glory of our fruit is not an empty honor when I'ahlorina groevrvmeu pulilish such prices as the above. Mr. trans of Hood Kivor suvs he foulid these rates at Pasadena, under the shadow of the far famed orange groves, and where New York apples knew for years no coitiie titor. 1 lie Oregon inn's heart was filled with pride while his fellow orchardists experienced the more substantial ioo- Jcet-nmng prom. Much lioom facts as these have been familiar to Hood Kiver horticulturists for some time, but it is only lately that the material results of high prico, steady demand and unlimited market have circulated. People of Oregon have known that their big apples anil other fruit were winning medals at Public fairs, but they do not yet realize fully that the more gratilying medal liearing the eagle stamp is being captured with equal celerity. Hull Oiegon laud own ers having !ov1 orchard sites appreciated that their property only awaits intelli gent cultivation to yield (ruit bringing a figure eipnil to the product of the tamed orange groves of California, would they permit it to continue year after year hearing stumps ami brush, or, as in many instances, the decaying grove of Iruit trees that yield a wormy product unlit lor ciderr All of this state cannot be expected to become s cond Hood Kiver and southern Oregon districts. Hut it is apparent to the most casual observer that thousand upon thousands of aiers are untouched, which will in the near future Uvonie the scene of tiie most profitable fruit in uustry. Hood luver and a few more enterprising communities are merely pioneering the way. Why Suffer From Rheumatism? Why suffer from rheumatism when one application of Chamticrltiiii's Pain Halm will relieve the pain? The quick relief which this liniment affords makes rest and sleep possible, and that alone is worth many times Its cost. Many who have used it hoping only for a short relief from suffering have been bapily surprised to Itnd that after awhile the relief became permanent. Mrs. V. H. Iggett of Yum Yum, Ten nessee, U. 8. A., writes. "I am a great pu Merer from rheumatism, all over from head to foot, and Chamberlain's Paiu Halm is the only thing that will ralieve the pain." For sale at Williams' Pharmacy.
