HOOD KIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, MARCH 8. 1906. PINE GROYE GRANGE ENTERTAINS PUBLIC pine Grove Grange No. 358 enter tained tlin publio Jaet Saturday night in a very pleading and interesting wanner. The two npper rooms of our school houte were thrown together ami tilled till etauding .room was at a premium. Ihe following program was rendered: Opening Remarks Worthy Mauler, A. I.

Response to Questions, - Members of the Grange Dialogue Looking for a Servant, Six members Violin and guitar duet, Walter and Joe Vannler Recitation Old Glory, Joy Mason Solo aud quartet Under Southern Skies, Four ladies An Army Story, L. Silliman Current Events, Lizzie Mohr Recitation How Sookery Set a Hen, Frank Dethman Parting Song Lightly Laugh and Gaily Sing, Chorus Many of the questions asked and answered by the members of the Grange were quite interesting and In structive. Here is a few of them : Should newspapers publish the de tails of murders and suicides? , What requirements are necessary to make a candidate elegible for governor of Oregon? Should theU. S. government remove the internal revenue from denaturized alcohol? Are volunteer soldiers better than large standing armies, and why? Many other questions equally as good were asked and answered, but space forbids giving more. The gems of thought were equally as good. Here is one of them : While I sought happiness she fled constantly before me. Weary, I turned to duty's pa'h and happiness sought me, saying, 1 walk this road today; I'll beur thee company. While this entertainment was not an elaborate affair, yet it was one full of merriment and instruction. If some of our star actors can do so well with ouly two weeks' preparation, it is only a conjecture to foretell what is their future. - It was the concensus of opinion that fine Grove Grange should and would have iu the near future a large ball whore moie and better entertai meuts might be given to a comfoitably seated audience. We hope to again welcome our friends to another literary and social feast before the long days of labor be gin. Our Grange now has 91 members and one on the mourners bench and two knocking at the door. A total of 91, who will help reuch the 100 mark. Don't be backward in sending in your application. A delay might be embarrassing. You may be the last one left. It looks as though it would soon be a unanimous atfai". OJlie M. Mason. Resolutions introduced by executive committeo of Pine Grove Grange No. a")6, Hood River, Oregon: Whereas, The citizens of tbe United iStatos have become so attached to the usefulness of our postal service that it is regarded by all to be one of tbe nioat important branches of our gov ernment. And whereas, our highest ambitions In our ppstal, as well as in all other governmental work, is to ad vance '.o u more perfect system, which may not be excellod by any other na tion. And wbereao, any conditions that may directly or iudirectely retrict or curtail the perfection or extension of our postal pervioe will be bitterly op posed by ail true Americans. And whereas, our enormous postal delioit during this fiscal year ending June 30, 19l6, will reach fifteen mil lion dollars, thereby creating a con dition tliat will retard advancement aud improvement in our postal ser vice, And whereas, our nntiou is the only great nation where such a condition exUts and where the income of1 the postal department does not exoeed Its expends, thereby bringing a revenue to tbe government. And whereas, such a growing defloit each year will forever prevent any favorable legislation t ward the estab lishment of United States postal sav ing banks or parcel post, delivery, such as is now enjoyed by the citizens of Mexico and uearly all the Euro pean countries. - ' ' And whereas, such a condition of annual indebtedness will retard the perfection aud extension of our rural delivery system, which is to highly appreciated, not only by members of the Patrons of Husbandry, but by all re idents of our agricultural dis tricts, And whereas, many of our postal employes such as city and rural letter carriers and many postoflioeolerk. are not paid a fair compensation for the class of lat'or they perform, yet with fifteen million dollar postal defloit liefore us we cannot expect to give them any relief. And whereas, the wages paid in some instances is so small that a pri vate subscription fund, from two to ltiriA hundred dollars tier vear. is necessary in order to retain our rural carriers. And whereas, we believe this enor mous deficit is caused in a great mea-mre by the payment of exorbitant n;.a fn tha raiirr.AilH fnr the carrv- in of our muils, by exorbitant prices j p:i id for the use of stamping ma chine?, time recording clocks and many other supplies in every brauch cf our po tal service; also by the fla grant abuje of the Frauk act. Therefore, Be" it resolved, th it it is the desire of all Katroos of Husban dry that our National Grange select comiiii' tee of three who arePatrtns of Husbandry, giving them power ts em ploy all necentnry assistance such as lawyers, stenouranbers and expert ac- cnuntant.

Paints Glass Stewart's Crockery i r. ,0 ;AM- As there has been no word in tbe Glacier from this place for some time, you way think Hinijen has disap peared, bat such Is not the case. Oh, nol Bingen is coming forward slow but sure. People come here to invest in town property. A livery and feed stable, a new store, and possibly a bauk will be opened in tbe near fu ture. The Maple Hotel is doing a rushing business. As Bingen will be one of the main stations on the north bans railroad, the future of the town is assured. You will have noticed in tbe White Salmon Enterprise, tbat tbe head men of the railioad oompany made the White Salmon people tbe ' 'concession" to name tbe station at Bingen, "White Salmon;" but the editor was misin formed. The officers of the company did no such a thing, as it would be unreasonable. It was also stated in the same number that tbe people of White fcalmon weie going to ship all their freight to Hood Kiver, which we suppose is true, they would not ask for such a "oonoeHsion." There are three railioad construction camps in this neighborhood, but only one of them bas done much work, the other two are just getting started as it bas been .quite wet for dirt work. Con tractor Jones' men have commenoed to giade the station grounds of Bin geu. When completed the railroad company will have a moct convenient and beautiful place at ineir aisposai.
