the fact that you have still with you

strike me as being ideal. I'rather,
however, had the courage of his con
victions and, while he was not then in
the millionaire class, guaranteed the
payment of 20 a week. With this
understanding and a sort of quasi part
nership arrangement the first issue of
the Hood River Glacier was gotten out.
It wasn't very large, a sort of cross
between a postage stamp nnd a Ittter
head, but small as it was, through
Prather's hard work, it was subscribed
for by practically everyone in the val
lev. In a month or two it was "en
lamed" to a five column quarto, and
later to a metropolitan sheet oi six
columns, two pages "patent. The
first ten or a dozen numliers were
printed in The Dalles. Then a Wash
ington hand press was secured, and
when it reached the six column site it
was nrinted in Hood Kiver. I did the
writing, proof reading, etc., all by my
lonesome, some five or six columns a
week. Mrs. C. "jerked the antimony
for a few columns from the one little
case, and s. r. uivine came in inurs
davs to keep hi hand in and worked
one dav at the case. I pulled "the
devil's tail." on the hand press with
Johnny (his name has slipped my mem
ory, Henningpen, I think) running the
ink roller. Ihe subscription list ana
exchanges required 306 papers (Grant's
number) and 820 were printed.
The Hood Kiver lownsile Company
was organized soon after this, being
composed, as 1 remember it, of the
Hon. K. Ij. Smith. Jos. A. Wilson ano
Sherman La France. The company-
very generously presented the Glacier
the lot on the corner of Oak Bnd Third
and this alone kept the Glacier from
the hospital, if not from the graveyard
that yawns so hungrily for young
newspapers. About the Bame time

who helped provide something, when
the fire of love was kindled in the
kitchen stove, and who in a thousand
ways piled up obligations which 1 can
never repay and don't want to, for
that would spoil some of the sweetest
memories of a rather illy-spent life.

ly in keeping its little bottle supplied

Col. G. E. S. Wood, and Portland
parties, completed Cloud Cap Inn, and
the road thereto that year and Charles
Hone and Lou Adams put on a stage
line. An armory was built in Waucoma
addition and Hood River began to lick
itself, wax fat and like Jeshuron, kick.
Hood Kiver at that time was not oi
the mao verv largely. J. H. Middletoi
had a general merchandise store, 1'ra
ther had a little store. Uncle Hub
Kand owned and ran the hotel, and 1
recall now that his advertisement in
the Glacier, a stereotype made when
the Glacier started, read ail through
the next winter: "Neat, Cleun and
Cool." The Glacier home was built by
'Jim Langille,". Hare old Jim, with
a tongue tinned witn vitriol ano a
heart of solid gold, who said the mean
est things publicly and did the most
generous and charitable ones privately,
of any man 1 ever knew. Will Lan
gille, now a prominent Alaskan, was a
guide from Cloud Cap Inn to the sum
mit of Mount Hood at this time, and
shortly after the Glacier arrived K. K
lA'tle took charge oi the U. It. & IN.
telegraph and depot work. He is
ralroad owner now, building the road to
Tillamook. Dr. Adams, who had at
tended to the coming in and going out
of the world events for the whole val
ley up to about this time, now shared
this line of work with Dr. Urosius, who
came from the east, from having read
of the valley in the Glacier. Mart
Harrison had a store too, and later
bought out Middleton. He also owned
a fine bull, known as Tippecanoe, who
roamed the streets at will, smashed
fences and did about as he pleased. He
furnished enough news for the little
Glacier to entitle him to a salary, but
well, he didn t get it.
The Glacier owes its name to the hu
morous side of events. Its size and re-
sistelss force, suggesting the big Gla
cier. However, the name was a happy
one, for the nine banning nas uvea up
to its name and grown weighty
As I stated in beginning this article.
there is no place to atop, I recall so
many of the old settlers, good warm
friends, both of mine and the paper s,
to whom both owe much, and which 1
have stored away in. my memory along
ith the countless other pleasant
things, the only kind, thank God, that
memory keeps fresh and green and fra
grant for us, and let us live over again,
while the sorrow and pain, the ills and
suffering she blots out. The "forget-
ery" branch of memory is one of her
most pleasant attributes, and my re
membrances of Hood Kiver are of such
a nature that I have none I would will
ingly forget. Her people, like her
fruits, are, Al, first class, the best in
the world.
Just a little word more of the Glacier.
From its first number it has worked for
Hood River's interest, energetically and
steadily. It boosted strawberries, but
from the first took the position that
they were but the means to an end
that the apple was to be Huod Kiver's
great product, it advocated irrigation.
when most opposed it, fearing that the
statement that irrigation was needed
would deter homeseekers coming to us,
but the editor felt he was right and
stuck to it at considerable financial loss
to himself. Subsequent events proved
the correctness oi his opinion and jus
tihed his course. I think 1 may
say without being accused of egotism
that the Glacier on propositions per
taining to Hood River's welfare was
nearly always correct, and in this con
nection I want to express the keen ap
preciation, which I still have of the
material assistance of practically all
Hood Riverites. Hon. E. L. Smith,
beside with the townsite company do
nating a lot, more than once helped out
with a little needed donation : so did J.
11. Middleton and many others. Uncle
The Old Tramp Printer
(l!y J, II. Cradlebuugh, early editor
of the Glacier, anil read at a recent
meeting of the printers and newspaper
men of Salem.)
'Tis meet on such occasions as we
honor here todav.
That we forget the daily grind and give
our fancies play ;
Let Memory for an hour recall the
things of long ago
And bless her that the pleasant ones
are all she lets us know.
For all the sot row and the loss, the
bitterness and the pain
She hides with gentle tenderness but
lets the sweet remain.
She takes us from these strenuous
tirres to those less ardent days
He fore Humanity evolved along such
speedy wavs.
Hefore the Motorcycle took the riding
horse s place :
Before the Automobile came, annihilat
ing space ;
Before the wizard, man, and made
his pictured self to walk ;
Before another touched these with
his wand and made them talk :
Before we canned our music, tele
graphed without wire;
Before Professor Langley proved that
he could be a nier;
ceftue wise Luther f urbank grew
his corn without a cob ;
Before the Mergenthaler took the
old-time printer's job.
The old-time things are passing, giving
place unto the new,
And Memory alone can bring them once
again to view.
The beautiful old sailing ships have
given place to steam :
The Indian of Cooper'a time is these
iIhvs but a dream ;
The pioneer who led the way across the
continent.
No longer is the real thing, but just
a sentiment.
The long haired hunter of the plains
has leu them long ago
And vanished as completely as his
hertls of buffalo.
The picturesque gold miner has aban
doned pick and pan.
The "Sooner" is a banker now down in
Toneka. Kan.
The iong-horned herds of Texas, now
are Herefords, and tame.
The cowboy with his woolly "chaps'
no longer plays the game.
The canvas covered wagons are almos
forgotten thingB.
The years have borne them all away
upon their tireless wings.
And surely the most picturesque lias
vanished with the rest.
In the passing of the printer the
old-timer -from the west.
No Beduoin of the desert wandered
further than did he.
No pirate of the Spanish main was any
whit more free.
Not even Rockefeller could lay claim
to greater wealth,
For the old-time tramping printer
had both appetite and health.
He would not have changed places with
a Morgan or a Schwab
When he got "the price" advanced him
and was ready for his job.
For as he followed copy as he stood
before his case.
His mind was like a Christian's on
some far-off, future place.
He could tell us cub reporters of the
stunts that he had done.
Perhaps for Murat Halstead, of for
Henry Watterson,
Or explain in forceful English of h
toughest piece of work,
When he got a "take" of Horace
Greeley s copy in New York
He could teach L. Murray grammar,
and tell Webster how to soel .
Could punctuate correctly, and could
criticize as well.
He could Oh, well, God bless him
he has vanished with the rest.
The Isat one of the old things
most picturesque and best.
