APPLES TO AUSTRIA
GERMANY AND RUSSIA
Four boxes of Hood River apples
were shipped last week by Dr. Gastav
Baar, of Portland, to friends in
Europe and the boxes were wen ioru-
lied for their journeys in the open
express, being given double tops and
bottoms ana bound wun iron nanus.
Dr. Baar sent several boxes to Euro
pean friends last year, but because
the boxes were not properly sirengin-
ened, some of the fruit was injured.
This year his friend, Joe Wilson, saw
to it that the boxes were prepared ior
the exnress smashers.
The four boxes or lancy iiooa tuver
fruit went to the following addresses:

Communication From Mr. Butler.
Editor Glacier My attention has
been called to an affidavit published in
a recent issue ,of the Glacier in con
nection with the injunction suit now
pending wherein it is sought to enjoin
our city officers from disposing of the
proposed issue of water bonds in any
other manner than that which ordinary
business prudence (unci the best, in
terests of the city would warrant.
There is very little foundation of
fact for the use of my name in the
alflclavit and on this point, none are
better informed Ithan the gentlemen
who prepared the instrument, but for
the purpose oi mis Huueme.ni i hiiuii
concede enough of it to give mo an
nnnortunitv to sav that any citizen
of Hood River with the interests of
the city at heart, might consistently
advise anv taxpayer that it would be
wall in nnlr thn Courts to enioin the
city officials from disposing of six per
cent bonds at a heavy discount under
a nrivate contract, when under the
riirht conditions and with the usual
publicity given to a matter of this kind
our bonds at a lowcrjrate should find a
readv market at par.
Let the bonds be sold at the earliest
possible date and let us have a better
and more adequate supply of water
without Jdclay, but letjis also elimin'
ate the personal animosities that are
causing the delay and " 'quit ourselves
like men.
