HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, OCTOBER, 1905. ODELL WILL TELL FRIENDS WHAT HE SAW HERE liv Hoswcll Shelley. '(Moll, Kiistllond Kiver Valley, Oct. 0. Hon. Win. A. lined, of llunovor, Michigan, wiih ii guest it tli) homo of Mr. and Mth. (1. 10. Itowei nuin, of (idoll for several days lust week. Mr. Heed in an ex-representative of tho Legislature of this state, having serv eil two terms and refused tho third term. He is b representative citizen and a farmer, owning three farms there. Ho is litrgly oiikK''I 'u feed ing stock lor the market, Ids market being Buffalo, N. V. This is his first trip west and it has proved a revela tion to him in many ways. Mr. liow ennan formerly lived in the same township with Mr. lieed and says that in ten years Mr. Reed is tho first por son he has met who was from his old home; consequently their visit was mutually pleasant and Mr. JJowernian has taken (treat pains in showing this old friend our charming valley. Mr. Heed is lirim full of enthusiasm over our western conditions, and the evi dences of modern civilizat ion 114 evi denced especially in Hood Kiver val ley. He is presido.it of a Farmer's Alliance at home and modestly says t tint later on he will have something to say to his Michigan friends con cerning his western visit. To say that he was delighted with his visit hern is putting it mildly. Mr. lieed, being a thorough business man, if wide awake to conditions that better the development of the country, and ho says in most positive terms that our seaboard cities and the country lying adjacent have a 'cat future be fore them. A few days' visit f "om such men mean something for the future of our section for when they roach home they becomo good adver tisers for us. Last Friday whilo absent H. K Jilythe (whom everybody knows) ac companied by Mr. I'oreival, of Hpo liniie, lunched at the Little White Ktoro. Mr. l'oicival is a brother-in-law of Mr. lilytlut and is paying Mr. and Mrs. lilythn a visit and incident ally looking over the valley, with which he is delighted, We regret our absence and our inability to swap yarns with our friend Mr. lily the, to whom the latch string of every homo in the valley is out, and who is familiar with every cow trail. Mr. lilythn possesses in large measure the quailllcalioiis of a politician, 1ml nomoway he fails to enter tho arena and perhaps he is right; but 1 box to assure film of a warm welcome always lit the Litljo White Store. O. W. Murphy, near Willow Flat, Inn on exhibition at the Little White Store a sample of millet about ti feet tall mid well headed. Mr. Murphy hail three acres this year and cut threo tons to the acre. He informs us that it is excellent food for catttlo mid horses and id o lino for lion's and chickens. Mr. Murphy has a (food place and can grow anything to per- leetion that is grown in this country. L. 1). lioyed has tho very largest Sidtzonberg apple in our show case that we have seen this season. Wo saw nothing in the Lewis and Clark exhi bit that would equal it in size. Mr, lioyed has a sheltered uook up there which under the touch of wator pro duces wonderous results. Mr. and Mrs. (Joy Talmago will move this we'k on the (larbado place near Willow Hat. l' M. South, the present occupant, is going to Kan Francisco. Last Saturday Mrs. Lent, sent a limb of apples of tho Ortley variety to tho Little White Store for exhibi Mon. There wore eleven apples on the limb coveiing only 1.2 Inches In space. The 11 applesg weighed 6 H-4 pounds, while the limii wolgnea only one ounce. the (Well fchooi is already on a working basis. Tho teachers are en toring into their work with a will that will accomplsh much during the school year. The recent heavy rains aro playing pranks with our roads. It may come to pass after a while that we will see the necessity of building winter roads is well as summer roads. When we want them real bad we will get them. but we never will have them without giving up a piece of money. Special taxation, to my mud, is the only way to solve tho problem. The republican peace conference to lio held in Portland promises a large attendance, the principles of the re publican party are well worth preser vation and it is mv opinion that in order to do this in the state of Ore gon tho factious of tho party must be forever wiped out. Should either fac tion iiiidnitiiko to dominate this conference it had just as well be call id oh". The primary nominating law places tho political power in the hands of tho people, which of course is not satisfac tory to tho political boss. It might happen that tho bosses might Jose their occupation, and should it come to pa s the people perhaps would not lie sorry. An intelligent leadership is esential to the welfare of any party in any campaign. This accom plished and tho party working togeth er, victory will perch upon the repub lican bannor. Tho Koosevelt "square leal" idea seems permeating the whole country, and when the political loaf is leavened willi it, peace and prosperity will reign. A. 1. Mason and wife in company with Alfred 1'etorson and wife, of Portland, were callers at the Little White Store last Sunday. Mr. Peter son and wile aro old-time friends of tho Masons, and if you w.iiit to take a peep at the valley, Mason U a gooil friend to Imve, for ho knows the val ley. Ho has faith in the valley; he enthuses over tho valley; ho talks1 intelligently of tho valley, and he makes converts for the valley. Whoop it up Mason. We wish the Mason family was larger. The Potorsons were pleased with what they wore seeing and go homo with ploasant recollec tions of our garden spot. Call again, A. I , and bring your friends. The Lewis and Clark fair will soon pass into history. It has two sides, with its educational features, its allurements for pleasuro seekers, its wonderful exhibits in the way of stock and modern inventions. In fact it has proven an object lesson for tho 20th Century people and will prove a lasting advertisement for the state along many linos. Vet when we tig ore the immense amount of money it has cost tho interior towns, which have been drained of the surplus mon ey which has gone to enrich transpor tation companies and the Portland business public, we almost wonder where we are going to get olf at. Vet we presume the charitable view of the matter is to call it a blessing in dis guiso. That it Is as bread cast upon the waters which will come back to us in days to come. Surely our East ern friends have lieen enlightened and surprised at many things that have been revealed to them and without exception, so fur as my limited ex per ience has been in interviewing them. they go home singing prai e for the wild and wooley west. Mr. and Mrs. Ilrock of Hood Kiver were out for a diive lai-t Sunday and culled on the Little White Store people. Mr. and Mrs. Win. 11. Quart, of Pittsburg were with them, having their first look at the valley. For more than a year Mr. Qiiuitz has boon road iug tho (ilacier, having selected it from fit) or IKJ papers as being the best one. Through tho (ilacier columns ho had become somewhat familiar with conditions here and consequently en joyed tho drive all the more. Mr. Quartz, after lit years of continuous service in a railroad ollico at Pitts burg is anxious to come west and try our wild, free life in tho country. Ho was deeply impressed with tho condi tions here and he ami his wife assured us that they Intended to return to Hood Kiver with tho view of locating. Tuny left for Portland Monday. Mr. lliayford of Hockford called on us last Sunday on his way to and from a pulpit appointment in tho droll' settlement ut Upper Mt. Hood. Mr. Patrick Lawless and wife, with two daughters and two grand child roll, are visiting at tho homo of their sou, .Jon li Linwioss or Udell, moir home is in Wisconsin, where thoy are well-to-do, and whiloT'tliny have no intention of moving west, yet they aro favorably impressed with this country and advise their son, John Lawless, to stay with It. 1 hey lett last Tuesday lor a visit at the fuir ut Portland. I am requested to announce that theie will bo a public meeting in the Odd Follows hull Saturday evening to discuss the wafer question. Mr. W. K. asey and wifo and two children from Wisconsin, are guests of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Masseo of Wil low Hat. Mr. Vaseyand Frank Masseo wore school unites in Wisconsin and this visit and reunion are happy events in tho lives of both of them. Mr. Vasoy is a well-to-do farmer, owning 'M acres of laud with barns sufficient to house lud head of stock. He is a believer in diversified farm ing.
