Jut whore the surveyors come from
seeuis to be a mystery. Possibly from
the road being surveyed out from Port
land, or it may lie 1111 entirely new
scheme set on foot for au electric line
up llood River valley. The advent of
the surveying crew has aroused a great
deal of exciteiueui and speculation
among the Mount llood farmers.
They realize that better means of
transportation will be the making of
the upper valley.
Mr. Sanders and his wife spent a
few days at their homestead, just
above the L. C. Wygaudt plane. Mr.
Sanders says work began this week
oa the new stage road, which will ex

OREGON EXHIBIT
NEEDS APPLES
Wilbur K. Newell, who is in oharse
of the Oregon horticultural exhibit at
the Lewis and Clark exposition, was
in Hood River Tuesday, endeavoring
to secure specimens of ripe apples for
the Oregon exhibit, which is being
put somewhat iu the shade at present
by the fruit from Washintgou and
other Northwestern states.
I he telephone was used, and efforts
made to get some apples, but it seems
that most of the farmers don't raise
summer apples, and Mr. Newell was
forced to return to Portland unre
warded. The Oregon display must
have some apples, and Mr. Newell is
anixous that as soon as Hood River
farmers can gather some good-looking
apples that they send the same direct
to Mr. Newell at the exposition. A
bill accompanying the fruit will be
promptly paid by the exposition management.
BINGEN.
The third crop of hay is now being
harvested, and is making a good yield.
A great deal ot the bay raised here is
sold for 89.50 a ton in the field, the
purchaser, who is generally a farmer
from up iu the foot hills, hauling the
buy with bis own team. Haled bay
brings 811.50. A. R. Byrkett, who
has a large quantity of hay, is holding
for a higher figure.
Tomatoes are being shipped in large
quantities. The liyrkett ranch is

tist,accompauied by a party of friends
from the East, among them Mrs.
Theodore Radclilf and Mrs. Austin,
were guests during the week at the
Maple hotel.
Business is rather quiet just now at
Biugen. The people here are waiting
for something to turn up, most of
them having faith that the Northern
Pacific will soon show its band in the
great amount of railroad agitation
which has been going on now lor tne
past three mouths. If this road ever
does come dowu the north bank of the
Columbia, the people here are count-
ins ou securing the depot location,
and then look out for that long-expected
boom. Better get in on the ground
Boor and purchase property now.

bales for himself.

shop, blacksmith shop and any other
kind of shop (eoxopt a grog shop),
and we will have a flue town here all
by itself.

It wu In 1753 that a proposal to
count the people wu first made.
Thomas Potter, son ot the archbishop
of Canterbury and member for BL
Germans, Introduced In that yr a bill
"for taking and regis taring an annual
account of the total number ot the
people and of the total number of
marriages, births and deaths and also
of the total number of poor receiving
alms from every pariah and extra paro
chial place In Oreat Britain." It was
Inevitable, of course, that directly this
proposal was made the precedent of
King David should be quoted. And
many were the jeremiads as to the al
ternative evils which would befall the
country. Those submitted to David
were mild in comparison. Mr. Thorn
ton, member for York city, said:
"I did not believe that there was any
set of men or, Indeed, any Individual
of the human species so presumptuous
and so abandoned as to make the pro
posal we have just beard. I hold
this subject to be totally subversive of
the last remains of English liberty.
The new bill will direct the im
position of new taxes, and, indeed, the
addition of a very few words will make
It the most effectual engine of rapac
ity aud oppression that was ever used
against an injured people. More
over, an annual register of our people
will acquaint our enemies abroad with
our weakness."
Matthew Ridley, another opposing
member, added that his constituents
looked on the proposal as ominous
aud feared lest some public misfortune
or an epidemical distemper should fol
low the numbering." However, the
bill passed the commons, only to be
promptly rejected by the lords. Not
until 1800 was the proposal again
made, and on this occasion It was
brought to a successful issue. The
first census of England and Wales was
taken In March, I801.-Fortnightly Review.

The ancient Greeks and Romans
practiced telegraphy with the help of
pots filled with straw and twigs satu
rated In oil, which, being placed in
rows, expressed certain letters accord
ing to the order In which they were
lighted. But the only one of their con
trivances that merits a detailed de
scription was that Invented by a Gre
cian general named ..Eneas, who flour
ished In the time of Aristotle, Intended
for communication between the gen
era Is of an army.
It consisted of two exactly similar
earthen vessels tilled with water, each
provided with a cock that would die
charge an equal quantity of water iu a
given time, so that the whole or any
part ot the contents would escape In
precisely the same period from both
vessels.
On the surface of each floated a piece
of cork supporting an upright marked
Into divisions, each division having l
certain sentence inscribed upon ii.
One of the vessels was placed at each
station, and when either party desired
to communicate be lighted a torcn,
which he held aloft until the others did
the same, aa a sign that be was all at
tention.
On the sender of the message lower
ing or extinguishing bis torch each
party immediately opened the cork of
bis vessel and so left It until tne sena
er relighted his torch, when It was at
once closed.
The receiver then read the sentence
on the division of the upright that was
level with the mouth ot the vessel and
which. If everything bad been executed
with exactness, corresponded with that
of the sender and conveyed the desired
Information. Spare Moments.

The making of horseshoes by ma

the blacksmiths, who refused to put on
the machine made shoes, but the work
was done so much more cheaply that
the machine shoes triumphed, and the
result was that owners of horses, as

Dorset shod oftener than before, and
the blacksmiths did not lose much, if
any, work after all.
