Every voter must register this year, whether be baa registered or voted previously 01 not. While it la possi ble to have your vote sworn to oo eleotloo day, yet you cannot vote on all measures, especially the initiative or referendum, and as we need every vote we can get In favor ot the Hood River question, it Is neoessary tbat you register. There are aeveral no taries In tbe oity who are paying es penliil attention to this matter, and it will not cost you a cent to register. Do It now. The Drngr Store Incident. Acting under tbe belief that tbj drug atoiei ot Hood River have beeu selling liquor as a beverage, and lu large quantities, Marshal Uanger In duced parties to gu into tbe stotes and purchase liquor in bottles, then promptly bad tbe proprietors ariest ed. (Jen. S. Miller, of tbe hill, was the first and be fought tbe case, but was found guilty and flued 175. Kelr i, Cass uu 1 husoo & Currin were tbo two otbet to follow in a few days, ana mey imia a ana 01 like amount Opinlou aa in the juatioe In tbe means of gettlug evidence, la divided among tbe pruuiiuent citizens. It appears to be tbe belief tbat tbe law wus being flagrantly violated by the drug -tores and tbe city authorities have been continually taunted with their iuabllity or unwillingness to prevent it. To all such have been giveu the answer tbat proseoution would result it the evidence could be obtained. Krom quiet investigations and in quiries made from diniuterested pea 1b who bare opportunities to find out from their nequeut presence in ana around tut drug stotes, we are of tbe firm opinion that the law has uot been flagrantly violated aa many aup pose. It la true that any sale made by a drug store without a doctor's prescription, even if giveu to peisons to use for the must urgent case of medUal relief, ia a violation of the law. It Is true that a great many families keep whiskey or brandy In tbe bouse for medlolual purpose and most of them would prefer to buy it In a drug store. We do not believe tbe publio gnnerally are opposed to drug stores stilling liquor for this purpose, Ibe selling ot liquor i beverage, however, belongs to the sa loon, and should be confined to those I laces. A. S. Kelr, of the firm ot Kelr Cass, stated In an Interview that bis firm has been endeavoring to live up 10 iua spun ot me jaw ana empnatlc ally states that 'be store refuses in variably to sell liquor to persona who wisn to ouy it lot n e as a beverage and usually requires a prescription rrom a pnysiciau in dispensing it tie may have in a few rare Instances waived tbe prescription, where he knew tbe customer well and was as aured tha' it whs wauted for medicln ul purposes. This was tbe case with tbe lady who mads tbe complaint. bbe was a regular customer of tbe store and it was taken for giauted tbat she oould not possibly want tbe liquor for any other than medical purposes. "It is very dlflloult," said Mr Keir, "to requite a perfectly respect able mist otner to go to h doctor and i tty a dollar for a prescription lu order to gut '25 cents' worth of bran ly, which will probably last the fam ily a year for medlcnl purposes and we really ought to have some legal protection in sucn cases, such as reasonable license to sell liquor under non circumstances. There is a vast iiirfereuoe between men n case an I tbut of a drug atore running a 'blind tiger' o- a 'booze juiut,' aud I wih oiuphatieally to state tbat 1 think mat in mis case, aitnough we were i icbnJoally liublo, we have not had ry square deal.

The west aide f aimers who have been taking up the matter of cheaper telephones, or a dollar rate on farmer lines, met wltb the directors of the dome Company Satutday and tbe matter was discussed in a rational, liusiness like way, and a better under standing waa had all around. The di rectors expressed themselves as Will ie to make the rate as low as could r.ii.l k, i s it-- - 0. K. Castner, fruit - Inspector tor Wasco county; was prefect at tbo an nual meeting of the Marion County Horticultural Ataooiation at Salem Saturday and addressed the meeting. Iho Statesman says: ' ' " ' 1 Muoh loterest sod a good rouod ot applause was manifested when tbe obalrman Introduced Fruit lospeotor (J. R. Cartoer, ot Wasco county, tbe home of tbe world famous Hood River apples. Inasmuch as tbo progressive fruitgrowers ot otber vicinities sre es pecially Inorested In tbo Hood River oonntry, concerning Its adaptability for apple raising and tbejpbenomenal suooess of tbe fruitgrowers ot that oouoty, Fruit Inspector CaatnerU re mark were eagerly listened to. After complimenting tbe Marion county fruit men on some of their splendid exhibits st the board of trade rooms ho took up in detail tbo growing ot an orchard, starting wltb suggestion tor the looatlon, proper soil aod tbe drainage thereof. "All land la not adaptable to frnlt raising," ho said, "and In tbe selec tion of a site for an otobard the pros pective grower abould consider tbe drainage by all mean. If the land la not naturally drained it abould be tiled and the land should not be of tbo subsoil variety, lo Idaho," be continued, "where there la a large amount of this subsoil, most benellt is derived from blasting, thus loosen ing op tbe earth lufflolently to allow the roots of tbe tree plenty ot room In wbiob to spread out and koouto a deeper footing. Wbero trees are plantad on this subsoil tbe roots, not being able to penetrate tbe bard pan soil, spread out a foot or two under tbe surfaoe ot the ground and as a oonsequenoe tbe tree are frail aod not apt to produos well. "In tbo selection or rees tne grow er should choose tbe varieties wbiob he Is certain will thrive la bt viola ity. " Here the speaker mentioned tbe "King of Tomikina county" and the "Oraveusteln'' and "Baldwin' varieties as being especially adapted to Ma'lnu county. 'The selection of tree should be made tram tbe best stock, the best being none too good,' be ooutloued. "There aie too many person who,, lo planting trees simply stick the roots of the treo lu a p.iorly dug bolo aod oover them np In a bap htzard way and then leave the tree to thrive aa best It can, without tbe nec essary trlmuilng, cultivation aud spraying, later blaming tbe oountry because tbey do not bear fruit In a few years." He warned tbo prospective grower against hairy aod ciowu gull routs ou young nnrsery atook and empbaa.zed the neoessity of setting tbe trees at Isast 30 feet apart aud of cutting the young trees down to thirty Indies so as to csuse tbe low fcrmatlon of limbs, mukiug picking in atte" years muoh eaeinr as well so causing earlier beariug Mr. Castner strongly dlhap proved of wbat he called the oi reless and promiscuous slieiiring ot trees which method of io-chIIkcI trimming often proved fatal to ibe beariug qual Itlea of tbe tree. In speaking o' pollloizatlon be strongly recommended Cbtes and said tbat eaoh orchard should be supple mented wltb severs! blvea f these busy workera He advised early oul tivatioo ot an ..robard to oontlnue up to tb) latter part of July. He advised tblunlng the fruit beariug buds to six Inches apart each season, never all?w log mote than one apple to tbe bud, and when the crop has a prospect of being large tbe buds bould be thin ned to eight luohei apart, said be. "In picking tbe fruit should be bandied like eggs aud should bs piok ed at sucb time when a greater major Ity of the fruit la suitable foi four tier packing as apples of tbia -lze are the most eugerly souwht after ia the markets, and" be continued, "apples should also be graded befote packing so aa to present a ueater appearauce lu tbe box." "In Wasco oouuty," said Mr. Cast uer, "we spray once for Ban Jose ciile, using the lime aud sulphur so lutlon, onos for tbe scab, with tbe bordeaux mixture, onoe for codling moth, this latter spraying being tbe moat important aud thorough, when eveiy limb and the boHv ot the tiee should be sprayed Vith a pump uuder 121) pounds pressure. Altogether we spray aoout live times Sac heason aud u a result yu per cent nr tne nood River apple aie free from worms " lie nrued eaob grower to be sup plied with a hydrometer, to know the exact strength or hi spray solution at all times.

A. A. Jayue will be tbe sneo- ial messenger this morning to carrv to Balem, for tbe filing with tbe Sec retary ot St ite, tbe petitions for tbe creation of Hood River county. wnen it was decided ten days ago to take up tbe matter of tbe oreatiuu ot Hood River oouuty before tbe vot ers of tbe state, by tbe initiative, it was found tbat it would be necessary to seoora 7,500 names. It was thought to be a big task, but last SaturdBv night It waa fotiud that we had lu the neighboibood of 12,000 and the woik ers were called In. Since tbat tlu:e the work of gathering them in and seeiug that tbey were properly enti tled to baa been iu progress and this morning tbey will be taken to Salem by epeolal measenger, to insure being on time and to guard against deUys in tna man. Tbe workera met with good results sod practioally no opposition to ti e measure, and It would ssem that the vote on It at the June election should be favorable. In Portland over 5,000 names were seoured. John Leland Henderson went to The Dalle and seoured over 400, and U. R. Castner returned from Oregon City and Salem with 1,200, ' Every' property bolder ind' evert' oitizsu ot tbe state ot Oregon is in debted to tbs newspaper, the com mercial bodies, the schools aod tbe business men foi conducting an a vertlslng campaign through 1907 which brought 27,215 people to this state as a result of tbe oolonlat rate In Marob aod April, September and October. ! No greater retnrn has ever been ac hieved as a result of community or ganization and oo-operatlve advertis ing. Ibis leoord of 227 people tor every day for 120 days Is slmost with out a parallel in tbe blatory ot imml gration eftott aoywbero in this ooun try. During tb same months ot 1906 tbs oolonlat rates brought 18,214, showing the unprecedented Increase of 9,001 or in round figures 50 per oent. Tbs oolonlat rates go Into effect again on Marob 1st and coutlnue un til April 30th, and If tbs same ener getic campaign can be can led coin 1908 even Ibis large influx of new peo ple oan be inoreased and it is certain ly worth while. The oolonlst rates were tho central feature aruund which tbe 76 bodies composing Jtbe Oregon Development League carried on their oamnalgu, and tha chief credit for tbia result I given to tbe oewipapers, to whom It belongs. The direct benefit of the oolonlat rate is that It brings people to every section and builds up the oountry all around tho towns rather than increasing tbe population of the' larger cities.
