WHERE THEY STAND
ON COUNTY DIVISION
J. F. Ifoudriuka, naya the Ortgon
Journal, repreeutatie from Wasco,
wbo wan iu Portland yesterday (rum
bit Cascade Locks borne, will not
tut tier the bill (or toe creatioa of de
cade oouoty io the next esinri of tbe
legislature unless it is proved to him
tliiit tbe majority of the people of the
interested aistrirl really desire that a
new county he created. To piofe that
the majority of the people -test re a
county division it will be neceaaary
for tbe people of what is cut out (or
Cascade county to prepare a petition
signed by a majority ol the residents
and voters. In tbe event of tbis be
ing done Mr. Hendricks will support
we county division scheme earnestly,
knowing it to he the wisn of bis con
stituents. The new member from Wasco in
tends to follow out the theory that si
lence is gulden during tbe session.
He takes the position that as thin is
the Brut time be has ever served in
the legislature be can It-am mere and
do more by keeping still and working
bard than by any other means. This
be intends to do.
"1 was invited to attend a meeting
of tbe Hood Mver Commercial club'',
said Mr. Hendrioks, "and 1 told tbem
that I would be glao to meet with
tbem and discuss tbe county division
question provided thatSenator Wheal -don
and Representative Kuowlei were
also there. 1 will do what tbe people
as a whole wish as shown by tbe ma
jority, but will not be bound by the
desires of a faction or a section."
Senator Wbualdon, wbo was also in
terviewed by tbe Journal, says be is
still opposed to tke movement now
being agitated iu Hood River (or tbe
creation of Casoade county by tbe
next session of the legislature. He,
however, in bis attitude will be gov
erned by the will of tbe majority of
' the peope of Wasco county. If a ma
jority of tbe people desire to secede
from tbe old county government tbe
senator will not oppose tbeir wisb.
He expresses regret at the possibility
of losing the people of Hood River
and that vicinity from tbe Wasco
county government.
Urowers's Meeting at Grants Pass.
A fruit growers meeting is to be
held iu Grants Pass Monday, Novem
ber 12, under I be auspices of the Or
egon Agricultural college and tbe
Grants Pass Fruit Growers union, in
co-operation with tbe Grants Pass
Commercial club. Heretofore mining
and lumbering have been tbe chief in
dustries of this section of Rogue Riv
er valley and these have built Grants
Pass up to a thriving city of 5,000
population, and now it has been prov
en by progressive tarmeis that tbe
fruit industry, if fully developed will
add as much wealth to Josephine
county as both the mines. and the
timber.
The soil, climate and other condi
tions are exactly tbe same as tbe
neighboring on 'nty of Jackson, which
has made a reputation for growing
fancy Spitzeuberg and Newtown ap
ples quite equal to Hood River, and
pears that on the New York market
for tbe past Ave year have led all tbe
United States for tbe highest price,
$2,000 per car being tbe lowest price
this season, will) the woild'a record
being made on a our of extra Cornice
pears at $2,707. Tbo year reooid price
for Rogue River pears last year was
$2,42!). Rogue River valley is equally
as famous for its fine grapes and
peaches. With tbis encouragement
before them, both the farmers and
the business men are taking an active
interest in the building up of the
fruit industry to its fullest extent.
Tbe attendance at this fruit grow
ers' meeting piouiises to be tbe larg
est ever beld in Rogue River valley.
Tbe programme hag lieeu arranged to
cover all tbe principal features of tbe
fruit industry. Those taking part
W'U sneak upon but one tonio each
and no lalk is tJ exceed ten minutes
in length. Tbe only exoeption to this
rule will be to;Professor A. B. Cord
lev and Professor C. I. Lewis, of the
Oregon Agricultural college, wbo will
each be allowed all tbe time they may
require to fully present their sub
jects. A question box will be an im
portant featuro, and all attending tbe
meeting will be supplied with a pad
of paper and tbey will write tbeir
queries and place the slips in the box,
to be answered at the close of the reg
ular programme. Oregonian.
Wood Word for Fire Department.
S. E. Bartmess, one of the persons
whose bouse was threatened by the
fire which took plaoe last Thursday
says that when tbe large hose reached
the fire and the force was turned on
it was the wettest water be everlaaw.
He said it reminded him of the Jour
net's "What Little Johnnie Wanted"
only it ended with evtry wish being
gratified. TbeiuimenHe rubber python
witb tail so re wed to Davenport's fire
plug roaching up tbe bill to the burn
ing building and with its bead thrust
through the roof seemed to write and
bias in fiendish glee, and not oontent
with putting out the fire alone was
also determined to blow all tbe wood
out of tbe wood house. He says if
the kicker against every movement
the fire company has made could be
placed in theposition tbat he and oth
ers interested occupied In that half
hour be would be forever cured and
(eel like taking otf bis bat to the boya
and asking to be forgiveD (or what be
bad doue Give tbem a boost and
not a kick. 1 tell you tbe Hre pro
tection service looked good to me.
Tho -umtur nomnanv deserves oredit
for theii nait of the service. With
thn nrr,hfit inn we had two years ago
eight buildings were at tbe mercy of
tbe names.

H4 River Aaale.
Witb permission of the editor 1
woull like to answer a atatemeDt
made by a Mr. Lowusdale, of Lafa
yette, Or., in tbe Oregoaiao of San
der, 1 November 4, and at tbe same
time ask him a few questions.
Mr. Lownsdale caya that to two or
chards in tbe Willamette valley there
are more 8 it it n bergs grown than in
the entire Hood River vallev. I ohal-
iepge our (riend to prove bit state
ment. He aays tbat it lav not generally
known, but it nevertheless a fact,
that one man in tbe (entire) Willam
ette has for a number of years receiv
ed just tbe aame price for bia apples
as bava the growers of Hood River.
That is an elegant showing, isn't it?
Oue man out of possibly one thous
and, while in Hood River I believe 1
can honestly say tbat our percentage
will run 99 men out of every 100.
Mr. Lownsdale also aaya tbat just
as good apples can he crown in tbe
Willamette valley as oan be grown in
Hood River and tbat tu an expeii
nieut made with Willamette valley ap
ples, which were put in cold storage
in Hood River, it was found tbat
they would keep just aa well as those
grown in Hood River. If thia ia a
fact wby baveu't the farmers of tbe
Webfoet oountry takeu advantage of
that experiment and by now bad tbeir
im ense valley in beating apple or
chards, which they oouid at any mo
ment sell at tbeir own price.
Can tbe Willamette valley farmer
sell bia (arming land at from $400 to
11,000 per acre? No I The Willamette
valley has for a uumber of years been
at a standstill, and tbe little valley of
Hood River is pushing more and more
to tbe front every day.
The people of today are of too in
telligent a clasa to allow such a bonan
za aa we have at Hood River to slip
through their fingera. Heie I would
like to ask Mr. Lownsdale wby a man
tbat ia lookiog for tbe almighty dol
lar, as is the American of today, will
raise wheat at an average ot 25 bush
els to tbe aore, which will bring bim
an average of 75 centa per bushel, and
will bring a gross inoome of $18. 75
per acre, when be can be raising ap
ples on tbe same that will net to bim
at the very lowest consideration $100
per aoref - .
. Is it nature of tbe American?
Our friend, Mr. Lownsdale, evident
ly doea not understand wby Hood
River apples are such keepers. It la
not altogbetber the apples, but the
principal reason for it ia the climate
we have, and for tbat reason I am not
at all surprised that wben Willamette
valley apples were shipped to Hood
River and put in oold sorage here,
tbey kept almost tbe same as do those
grown in tbe Hood River valley.
I am pioud of tbe chance to toy
that there has not yet been a terrlto
ly found where there can be apples
raised and kept like they can in Hood
River valley. K. C. Brock.
Still Worrying About Hood River.
Before Hood River puta all the gor
geous tail feathers in ber bat. she
should remember that a pioneer
rancher of Malheur county to be ex
act. Mr. C. W. Mallett-a few years
ago grew some apples that wentlwelve
to tne dox, Dut as tne rainoads want
ed all tbey would sell for and a little
more, tbe outside world beard but lit
tle of them. But there waa some
mighty fine baoon in that valley that
fall. Oregonian.
Booming White Salmon.
Judge W. Brook, once one of the
leading business men of Moro, now a
prospective wealthy fruit producer on
the North Bauk near White Salmon,
baa been visiting Moro tillicuma this
week. He carries with bim samples
of bis orchard which cause one's
mouth to water, as an evidence of tbe
beauty and bounty of apple raising
tbere, the true rival of Hood River
valley. HiXCbange.
A Narrow Escape.
V. C. Brook, accompanied by Mrs.
Brock and children, bad a narrow es
cape from being thrown Into the
Colu'iibia river last Sunday wbile
crossing tbe ferry from White Sal
mon. When nearing tbe Oreogn side
the horses became uneasy and started
to back tbe vehicle, wbicb waa occu
pied by Mr. Brock and bis family.
Before tbey could be stopped tbey
backed tbe oariage oS the boat into
the water, not however, before tbe
Brock family had managed to et
out. Fortunately the ferryboat bad
arrived in shallow water. Had tbe
aocldent occurred a few minutes be
fore it is probable tbat tbe horses
would bave been drowned, tbe car
riage lost, and other serious conse
quences entailed. Tbe team waa led
out of tbe river none the worse for
tbe episode.
