wan to discuss tho water question
It proved mi enthusiastic mooting
mid the sentiment was iiMiiiiiinniiH in
favor of securing water for irrigating
purposes. It is h fact well underHtood
that the lack of water for irrigating
tlio Odell District hasand in retarding
the progress of thin section, l or two

which has failed to materialize. Thin

possihlo ii 1 1 line ti t at any icaMouiihlo
Ro.it, and when the eoile are thor
oughly runsed and eoneliido to fettle

right.
A committee of three, consisting
of I'Vauk Strong, TIiom. Lacy and
John Kroegor wasappointod to inves

no doulit prove a viiluahle acquisition
to our neighborhood.
Last Sunday wife and I took a drive
over the Neil creek way, calling 1 1 rut
at the home of Henry Avrey and wife
and found them aliHent. From there
we went to tlie home of Mr. and Mrs.
Thou. Avery, where we Bpent a very
pleiiHant hour. Mr, and Mrs. Avery
received iih in a moHt cordial manner,
and this being our lli'Ht call upon them
in their modern, comfortable cottage,
they kindly showed iih through from

The Development League of Mount

meeting it was decided to establish
a permanent exhibit of fruit, grasses
and vegetables from the .Mount Hood
valley at some prominent place on
Oak street in Hood Kiver.
With the large number of Eastern
people arriving daily to look for fruit
lauds, the enterprising Mount Hood
people propose to take their light

know that good land is plentiful and
reasonably cheap in the Mount Hood
valley, the host dairying section of

Hart I'scs Knife On Dellart.
A cutting scrape at Viouto last
Wednesday, resulted in Foreman De
llart receiving a deep slash across tho
nose. A man named Hart did tho
cutting. Hart It seems was securing
some wood from the lumber yard,
and Dellart sought to restrain him or
make him pay for tho same. Words
led to blows until knives were drawn
and blood began to tlow.
There is dill'eient evidence as to
which of the two men is really to
blame for the rumpus. Deputy Shorlli'
(linger went to the scene of' the fray
the next morning, but Hart had takeii
to the woods with a Winchester.
Later reports state that he has gone
to Tho Dalles with tho intention ,f
giving himself up to the authorities.
Dellart's wound is not serious, but
will leave an ugly scar.
