Odell, Kant Hood River Valley,
Oct. 4. This is Wednesday morn inn,
and as we have juist returned from the
fuir, it is too late (or the usual grist
of notes for this week, but here is one
which promises an extended story for
next issue:
Will Lenz and Walter Silliman left

mountains Like the Alaska "mann
ers" they carried their pack on their
backs.
Aftermath of the Fair.
Od oil people are home from the ex
position, poorer but wiser. We all
had the tine of our lives, and no one
regrets tie money it cost to help ad
vertise the wonderful Hood River val
ley at one of the greatest and most
successful of the numerous world's
fairs.
Mr. Wagner, the gentleman in
charge of the Denton county booth,
said to me, while seated at the dining
table: "I have asked 100 men why
Hood River apples are better than any
other apples. They could not tell;
and I'll bet yon can't."
1 was glad of the opportunity to ex
plain, and in a voice loud enough for
all at the table to hear, gave an analy

telling of the certain elements which
go toward making the keeping quali

world.
The laugh was turned on Mr. Wag

knowledged the corn.
fierce animals and branding them in
the corrals. The wild and fascinating
life thus vividly portrayed held me
as one enchanted. Like the boys ot
Wyoming, it was dying bard to give
up the strenuous lifo of the plains to
fall in the procession of civilization.
While at the exposition, I met
three schoolmates of the clans of 18.7 ;
who can beat this?
To me the moving pictures of the
cattle roundup in the Wyoming ex
hibit was the most interesting of all
the features of the exposition, having
myself been a oowboy at one time,
and assisted in herding the wild cat
tle of the ranges; rounding up the
The gentleman in chargo of the
Wenittchne valley exhibit said to nic
that at St. Louis last year the fruit
display of the Winatchee valley took
the lead up to the last minute when
Hood River stepped in with a big
hunch of fruit and captured the grand
prize. He says he is afraid this will
happen again.
Hundreds of our nickel souvenir
budges could be sold at the exposition
now. This badge was pronounced bj
all as the most unique at the fair.
Hood River and Tiiconia are acknowl
edged to lie in the lead in the matter
of advertising their respective Mic

every one is looking for their own
comity exhibit, everything was just

inquiring for the Hood River exhib

far and near. The Roosevelt cabin
will not be forgotten because of tho
man who occupied it in days gone by.
We must mention tho exhibit of the
Wadhams and Kerr liros. A crowd of
people are quietly waiting their turn
to be served with coffee in a nice
dainty cup from the hands of the lady
in charge. Of course tlio writer had
a taste of the coll'ee, and must say
that it was tine and was highly spoken
of by all; the brand is Red Cross, anil
you can get it at Rockford store.
The Forestry bulldiug is simply
grand. The California building told
of the land of goli, fruit aud grain.
On the Ti ail is tho din and yell of
men and women olforing their wares
for sale. On the way to the Govern

The improvements on the dock have
beeu completed, and it is now in
better condition than it has ever been

BINGEN.
As there bus not been anything from
this place iu the Olacier for some
lime, a few notes might be of inter
cut. Tho all absorbing question now is
tho railroad, or rather, as the railroad
seems to be an assured fact, where
the depot is to be; and as there has
boon no announcement made by the
company where the station will be,
the question is open for the people to
talk about.
Three places are taken into consid
eration by the people Underwood,
White Salmon and iiingen. Under
wood claims the short route to Camas
i'raii io and Trout Lrfike. White Sal
mon: Is it the little town on the
blulf. lt is rather doubtful that a
railroad will climb the celebrated 350
stops to make the town a station.
Or is it greater White Salmon includ
ing a part of the bottom?
lint the Portland big dailies, the
(loldondalo papers, and even the (Ha
uler have It on maps, or otherwise,
that the north hank railroad will be
located through White Salmon ; there
fore, it ought to be otrrect.
And what of lilngen? . Very little
attention has lieen paid to the place.
though it is without exception the
most beaiuirul town site on the Col
umbia; also tho most practioal loca
tiou for depot and sidetracks. Where
will the station be?
No surveying has been done near
Uingon. One surveying crew is work
ing down from Lyle.
The Maple Hotel has changed bauds.
Mrs. Hanson of Portland has taken
chargo of it.
Ill I II. Snksdorf, having disposed of

long.
