The law now requires that the signa tures of 10 per cent of the voters of any district can compel the aubmls sIod of the local option question to the people. The saloon interests con tend that this proportion should be raised to 20 per cent ot tin legal vot ers of any diatrlot. it Is now possible for the anti-sa loon league to call :in election in any district at any election, if the dis trict refutes to vote tlio anti-saloon people ciiu cull the question up at the next election, do matter wlien tne date may fall. Should the district vote dry, however, the saloon people cannot call the question up agHiu for (wo years.

Train Itobber Confesses In tbe presence of SlierilT Stevens aud deputies representatives of the O. K. A N. company and newspapermen, William liuike, the assumed name of a young Portlancijmau, 21 years old, uontessed that be took part iu the robbery of an OH & N. passenger train near Portland Thursday night last. He implicates Jaok Hayes, alias Walton, alias "Slim, "exconvict from Folsom and a youth who like Burke lives iu Poitland, whose name is w th held until his arrest which is expect ed momentarily. liurke was arrested last Moudny. He made tbe confession, he said, I e cause be was sorry for tbe part he hud taken and because he bad been given only 11.25 ns bis portion of the booty. Hayes, later, aooordiug to the confes sion, took possession ot all the vain ables secured, "double crossing" the others by telling them be found noth ing In the express safe. Hayes, who was hi rested Suuday, bad on his pet son tbree diamonds, which he said were given to him by "Cbioago Wbitey," said to be a "yeggman." A telegraphio desnip tion of tbe diamonds shipped to a local llrm tallies witb tbe three jewels found Iu Hayes' possession. Hayes denies absolutely any connection witb tbe crime, but became so involv ed fu a maze of explanations that he lost tra k of bis statements aud Le oon. lug angry sullenly retuaed to tulk further. After being, put lu jail, liurke Iden tified Hayes as the mau who bad been associated with him iu tbe robheiy. The capture of tbe suspects resulted from tbe discovery of a "blioker" dropped by one of the robbers after leaving tbe soeue. lliis was traced through its owner to Hayes posses sion. Mo Use for a l'oorhonse The Athena Press mentions the sile ot Union couuty's poor farm In this manner : "Over tbe bill to the poorhouso," the sentiment that has made strong hearts weep, Is no longer to be known in Union county. The poor bate tin uome so scbioo, the oenditlou of the people so opulent that the ouunty has no use for the unused aud unhonoiod spot and It will be sold to (he highest bidder, January 7. Tbe county will accept the highest bid, and the buyer will have a chance to pay for tlie laud as io tbn dlscietlou of the county court may seem proper and best. Union county Las no use for a poor farm aud after trying the expeilmont tor a number of years It is given up as Impracticable. Tbe land used for the purpose is ' ot the bbst iu the Urande Hondo valley, aud hm it per petual water right, making It valuable tor fruit and vegetable production. The county court will convene Jan uary 7 to consider bid and sell the property. After the tlrst of the year the Indlgout citizens of the county will be cared for privately.

Msuy nursery mto hose rctice it has been for years to bif stiambeiry plants for lull ?etting, were compelled to notify tbeir customers that they bad no stock this jeer tbat could be used for (bat purpose, and many of them are oow looking askance at tbe slim pros pect ahead for strawberry plants for spring setting. The nursery tbat baa succeeded iu bringing out a bait-crop ct strawberry plants is tbe exception, we are advised, wbiln many admit tbat tbe loss will run from 50 to 75 par cent. One eltoct of this situation, ot course, will be to send tbe price of nlnntri to a somewhat bliihei point than ever belore baa been reached, aa the scarcity of plants has made It Dec isarv for tbe nurseryman to raise prices to lave themselves. Hut Booth er effect ill be to make Ibe straw berry itrolf a scarce aiticle, because so many ct tbe growers who have failed to take especial caie of tbelr plants during : tb drought will find themselves out of business.

Had ft Happy Christmas Hood Kiver, Ore., Deo. 27, 1908. Kditor Glacier: Deal sir, I just want to tell you what a nice Christ mas tree we bad at home, a. way bsck from town. 1 never saw as nice a borne tree in all my life, as we all were here it being tbe llrst time iu fire years that all our children were at home. They aft brought presents snd put them on the tree. The tree was nicely decorate' and could not bold bait tbe presents, so tbey just put them on the floor under tbe tree. Editor you just ought to have been here and seen the children when Old Santa Claus came in at the dooi with caudy and nuts He passed them to tbe children first. Mr. S V. acted as Ssuta Clans, ho alo took the pres ents oft tbe tree aud two others band ed them to whoever they belonged. I hove i nephew bete witb bis tam lly from Tba Dalles, just lately from the east. He was only a little boy when 1 saw him 17 yean ago, but now he has a nice wife aod four nice obil dren. Mr. Kditor you ought to hear them sing, my nephew picks tbe guitar aud the childien slug like uitingiij'ns. My husband bought our childien a nice organ the night before tbe Christmas tree. Tbey all eujoyed a present like that. M hlzakl Implies to P. S. W. Boyd, Oregon, December 27, 100t. To the Editor: I have read the. il logical argument of P. S. W. Tbe out line of bis letter is tbat Ihe Japanese are living on rice and tbat tbey send back the money to tbeir brethren or friends and work io kltobensaod take girls' work. Indeed, I do not deny that tbe Jap anese live on rice, but must explain it to P. S. W. He thinks tbe lice is ohoap food and the Amcrioana oan not live on such a food. But read tbe notations ot the market. Oue bushel of wheat sells for 9") cents and a pound of lice for CI cents, lu fuct rice is not a cheap food. Its nutritions ele ments Hie as goud as flour aod the Japanese have been living ou this food ever since he debated trom bis moth er's milk, l'lie rice is the daily bread of She Oriental' ns tbe baked flour is tlio bread of the Occidentals. The Japanese are healthy aud vigorous on the rice. Their living is not as low as some think. As the Europeans oau't live entirely on rice, the Asiat ics cau't change tbeii food so radical ly, but we are taking the bread and biscuits once or twice a day. Tbe ouly thing that tho American laborer oan blame the Japanese for is that the luttei is more thrifty than he t. I am a student of the social science aud have munh interest and t-yiupntby in the labor uniona of tbe worli. The laboring chiHS arc (be buck bone ol svoiy couutiy and should bo respect ed and protected by tiie goverumeut with every pcssihlilty. And (ha cap italist n 1 1 -.t realize that he cann it do anything with his gold unless there is a sullicient labor to pmduco :.i manufacture tbe demanded goods for the world's market - But the laboier should not forget that the daily work that he is doing is a blessing from the Lord and is a service lor the tel lowmaukind of tbe world; must obey and obseive tbe laws and be thrifty. Kvery cent he earua Is a reward fci his sweat, so ho must be careful for what he should pend It. Hundreds of millions ot dollars are spent annu ally for Illinois and cigars in this country. Ihe Japanese will not barm them, but what a terrible enemy tbe liquor aud tobacco is. Hundreds of families aie ruined and hundreds of wives seek divoroes thereon. The human being ought Io love his parents ami brothers, especially tbe parents aud hi family. P. S W. tries to attack the Japanese because they send the money to their loving ones. Not only the Japaues' ; Italians. Jews, Kacudiuavians, Germans, t rench and Americans ton, love bis parents aud That you all may en joy a Happy and Pros perous "New Year" is the wish of Yours E. If you are happy then don't forget to make others happy. You can make us happy by giving us a call when in need of anything we have to sell. it "WVV TTijtr'VA i 'I I J V O G T for nxH mmb. 10 to mot monitr for ;nn to .hip Raw Fan tnd Rliln to tnthra to ell M homo.

Hood River people are raising ap ples (or a business, money, not for a pleasure or rewardless work. It is the same for everybody. They are work ing foi money, to live with it and to save it for his family's take. It is tbe enme for tbe Japanese. He baa to support bis family, has to send bis children to scho il. Ihe Japanese In Hood Kiver work in orchards. The orchards bear the apples. Apples are sent to Europe and bring the gold trom there. A trifle ot it may be sent to Japan through the Japanese labor trs, out it Is boiught bark to Ameri ca by the wheat or tome other manu factured goods; or perhaps money goes to England for some merchan dise that is purchased by Japanese, and at tbe last, it may come back to the (J 8. tor the cotton or apples which are purchased by (he English. So the ciiouiatiou of tbe ourrenoy of today is not local, uot provincial, it is international. Perhaps Hood River oan go ahead without- trny Japane.n, but nobody will deny that tbe Japanese give a little benefit to whatever they are do ing I have the same idea witb P. S. W. concerning of the kitchen woik by the Japanese. They ought to get out of tbe kitchen as soon i s tbey can But P. 8 W. is misunderstanding tbe sord "ambition". The Japauese iu the kitchen is tbe most ambitious fel low you can dud. He is learning the English in tbe kitchen and studying tbe borne life of tbe Americans. No body will think there is an ambitiou, an inspiration or an Imagination iu tbe brain of a Japanese in tbe kit cben, bnt it is a mistake. He bas tbe greatest ambitiou among tbe Japan eee. In taut, there are not more than Hve or six Japanese in Hood River who are workiug iu tbe kitchen, and tbey aie sll students, ibey are rie psriug to do tomelhiug witb the Eng lieh Ihey have learned In the hot work room. Most of tbe Japanese graduates of tbe American Unlver sities onoo passed through tbe kilcheu life. In closing 1 wish tbat P. S. W. would come to the front of the M.
