lhe secretary, after calling the roll,
announced tbat there were 1088 shares
subsciibed at $30 per shaie and tbat
ill shares were represented at tbe
nieetiug, also tbat the capital stock of
tne company was placed at e48,0O0.
it developed tbat tne subscription
for stock bad been made under tbe
name of tbe lat-t Ui le Irrigating com
pauy, and tbat tbis name whs sosiwi

pauy, now incorportaed and aoiug
outlines on tbe east side ol ilood riv
ei, tbat it was .deemed expedient to
obauge tbe name ot tbe incorporation
to tbe hiast ilood Kiver irrigation
company. A resolution to this etfeot
was Introduced aud adopted. This
catried all ot the subscriptions for
Btcck under tbe former over to the
latter and tbe origiual subscription
was presented and adopted.
ibe secretary then read the articles
of iucorpoiation an tiled with the sec
retary of state and tbe clerk of Wasco
couuty.
ibe president stated that some of
tbe articles might seem to cover more
ground than neoessary but tbat it abb
easier to embody tbeni now tliau to
have the charter amended in after
yeais and tbat tbe time, might come
when tbe company would be justified
in taking up some of the enterprises
that appeared improbable at tbis
time.
Cbas. 11. Sproat, as chairman of the
committee on Iby-lawa tben lead
substantial copy of the Farmer's Irri
gating company's by-laws of the west
side. Alter some remarks It was
adopted as read with the exoeptlon of
section 1J, wblob reads as follows
Tbe board of directors may enter
into water right contracts with per
sons owning land under tbe diton or
ditubes of this company by whiob the
company shall agiee to furnish tbe
amount of water therein specified tor
term not exoeeding ill) yeais, at tbe
rate of 130 for eaob miner's Inoh of
water, whiob contract shall be in
writing, under seal of tbe company.
and shall specify the land upon whiob
water therein contracted for is Lto be
used. Each person so contracting
witb tbe company for water right
shall be eutitled to one iuoh of water
lor each share of stock subscribed for
by him and may distiibute said
water on the land described in hh
contract.
Such water right contracts sball also
provide for tbe payment of suoh an
nual cbarge as tbe board ot dircetors
may deem necessary to cover cost
and expense ot maintaining tbe ditch
es, flumes and canals of the oompany
and distributing tbe water, and otbei
necessary expenses of tbe oompany.
suoh carge to be fixed from year to
year ly tbe directors; to b payble
ou tbe iu! ii day or June ot eacb year,
and to be delinquent on the first day
of July of eaob year aud if not paid
on or befcre said last named day tbe
water sbaii be abut oil from sucn de
linquents. When the water is turned
olf under tbe above provision it sball
not be again turned on until all ar
rears and obargea tben due are paid.
nd in addition tbere to a cbHrge of
. to oover expense of t'irning water
oil and on.
Tbis section became tbo subject of
an animated discussion, it appears
tbat the stock subscriptions were tak
en witb tbe understand tbat f.10
should reptesent one share of stock
which in turn lepresented one Inoh of
water, aud it appeared to many tbat
n effort was being made to relet tbis
seotion to a cotutniUee witb authority
to nx tbe value of shares so tbat tbey
mig'it represent tbe real value of tbe
water represented by tbe stock, in
other words if tbe real value of tbe
water per inob was $50 they could not
tford to sell it at .iU per incb, benoe
losing 120 at the very beginning aud
in all futute subscriptions.
The mistake made by tbe Faimer's
lnigating oompany was very appar
ent. They found tbat the plan of
lacing tbe sbaies on a flat basis of
$:10 per share was not equitable. As
tbe lvalue ot the system was increased
by viitue of additional impiove-
ments it was sought to place tbe
hares on a sliding soale, and an at
tempt was made to charge subsequent
urcbasers a sum In excess of tbe f.iU
ptovided tor by tbe by-laws, but
this was held to be illegal on account
of tbe provision of the water con
tracts.
An understanding was finally bad
and the following resolution presented
by I). L. Davidson wag adopted as
read to wit: "Tbat a committee of
tbtee be appointed to draft seotion 12
so as not to lnciease tbe pi ice of tbe
present subscribers above $30 per
share; but add interest and necessary
expenses to future subscribers, and to
report to an adjourned meeting or tue
stook holders to be held Katurday,
May 18, at 1:30 p. m. in the Artisan
hall." The chair tben appointed P.
S. Davison, T. A. Decker aud M.
Hawthorne as members of that com
mittee. Ibe company tben proceeded to
elect directors, and tbe following sev-
members were elected: L. Hi.
Claik, C. Dethman, M. M. Hill, 11.
F. Davidson, C. K. Marshall, M.
Hawthorne aud P. S. Davidson.
L. K. Clarke tben read the report
of the committee appointed at a pre
vious session to inspect tbe system oi
tbe fc)ast Fork irrigating company and
in reference to a proposition made by
tbat company for tbe sale ot tbeir
ditch, and peiscnal effects of the cor

faction. We have had a most harmon
ious year. Mo serious difficulties have
arisen between pupil and teacher and

Several visitors were present who
greatly enjoyed tbe exercises, and

era.
Tbe Frankton publio school is the
oldest sobool in Hood Kiver valley.
Ibe first sobocl building was not very
ostensive, but it served its mission aa
the alma mater of a few dozen boys
and girls. The wheels of progress soon
moved tne old building from Its
foundation to give plate to a struct
ure commensurate with the .growth
and needs ot tbe district.
Tbe sobool building tbat now occu
pies tbe site is a large handsome two
story structure with four rooms and a
basement. It Is modern and well
equipped, and it Is perhaps tbe finest
school building in tbe valley with the
exception of those in the city.
Tbe distriot bas an enrollment of
137 scholar and taxable property to
tbe value of $110.00. It is tbe purpose
of tbe sobool board to add another
teacher next year and provide for the
teaching of the eleventh and twelfth
grades. Tbe present oorps of teachers
consist of Geo. W. Drown, principal;
Miss Fearl Eby, Intermediate: Miss
Sella Crouse and Miss Anna Shea.
primary.
Prof. Drown has been principal of
tbe school for three oonseeutlve years
and has been very popular with the
pupils and patrons of tbe distriot.
i be otber teachers bave given most
exoelient satisfaction, and have en
deared themselves to all the pupils.
We learn tbat Miss Crouse has ap
plied for her room for tbe enduing
year, and tbis is equal to her reten
tion. The present school board, consist
ing ot J. W. Anderson, F. K. Abstien
and Frank Caddy ai directors, and
M. ii. Nickelsen as clerk, have man
aged tbe affairs of tbe distriot witb
t-triot eoonomy, and yet witb a liber
ality consistent with the best meth
ods. Hood Kiver valley may justly be
proud of her exoelient schools.
Ilood River's Ozone Exileratlng.
The Portland retailers who recently
visted Ilood River, returned to Port
land and report a good time. Tbey
partook freely of Hood River's fine
apples and from tbe following account
we might infer tbat some of them bad
been endowed witb tbe proverbial
"stick." Tbe Grocer's magazine re
fers to tbeir visit as follows.
"The Portland retailers on the re
turn trip showed evidences ot tbe ex
hilarating etleot tbat Hood River
ozone produces, and tbeir special oar
was tbe scene of spectacular perform
ances. Sedate J. C. Mann and digni
fied A. 11. Willett gave a highly en
trancing performance in abbreviated
costume, while rotund Dan Kellahar
forgot bis rheumatism and gave a
democratic war dance. J. A. Eates
rendered a patbetio little solo, enti
tled "Have a Shot," and received
many encores. It was a great night
all right and one tbat will long be re
membered by tbe Pullman porter."
