a rich harvest for those concerned in
them. I!ut why should everything rise
in price except applis? At least the
price obtained fur them should he
enough ti return a profit to the grower.
It may he better that they are not too
high. With sugur selling at a high
price, the quantity of ciinued goods has
lieen decreased. And we may expect a
resulting increase in the consumption
of fresh fruit. We may well look for
ward to a large consumption of the
fresh apples of the northwest.
That business ia adjusting itself to
the war Hituatiun in the declaration of
Dun's lieview. We quote thin publica
t ion as follows :
"lliisincss is tiny hy day adjusting
itself to a war liasis of values, risks
and tlemandH. The process of readjust
ment to extraordinary conditions, huw
ever, is necessarily slow, and merchants
are ohliged to exercise patience in deal
ing with the new and diilicult problems
that arise. I he result ia extreme cau
tion, coupled, however, with a cour
ageous view of the future. There is
an underlying conviction that out of
this crisis the United States is to at
tain a iiotaUo expansion of foreign
commerce, and there is in particular a
remarKiihle interest s regards the
North American trade. The absence of
an American merchant marine, with
which to move foreign commerce, is
now the chief obstacle, in the way of
the restoration of normal prosperity.
Hence, the importance of the emer
gency measures now being pushed hv
the government in cooperation with
business men. 'I he ship registry law
is protiniily to lie lolloweil hy legisla
t ion for government war risk insurance
mid wilh these two measures, and some
necessary liberalization of the naviga
tion laws, a notable beginning will be
made in moving the foreign trade, and
the whole 1 1 unit i it I and mercantile sit
nalion will be improved. The cotlon
contort nee at Washington thiH week
gives great promise of iiiiikniL' it nos
bible to take lulc quale care of the cot
ton crop. Wheat has experience a via
lent advance, due chiefly to the fear of
a prolonged war. but the wheat crop is
so large as tu give practical assurance
that for this season, at least, the sun
ply is ample both for domestic and for
eign demands. I here is continued im
pioveinent in financial conditions in

the I'cilcral luscrve Hanks is to give
im reused strength to the banking or
ganization in this ctiutitry. liomestic
business is proceeding slow by on the
basis of supplying daily needs. An en
couraging sign is the. fact that notwith
Manning tue prevailing conservatism as
to the immediate situation, there are
comparatively lew cancellat ions of or
tlei. Hie railroads naturally are not
htijing heavily at a time when, with
the slock exchanges closed, they have
no ready market for their securities;
Iheir earnings show decreases com
pared with former jears. l-'or the three
weeks of August, Unilcd Slates roads
in Iheir preliminary statement of gross
earnings report a loss of -l.fi per cent.
I he declining bank clearings disclose
the smaller volume of trade, but these
conditions are not the result of any
fundamental Weakness within."
A FACTORY
Hood liiver has at least the sem
blance of a factory at the present lime.
Indeed, temporarily, the work at the
Cutler gi ailing mm limes affords a pay
roll that is a source of gratification.
Not only the Culler machine, but oth
er devices of a like nature for the use
of the otcliiinlisl that are manufac
tured here arc nutting with favor in
olher Northwestern apple districts,
lulicd, I hey ale being sent to all parts
i f the country.
The Hood Kiver district was first
with it fancy pack. It was foremost
n, tl.e organisation of its members into
llu icnt marketing agencies. It seems
thai it will lead in the manufacture of
devices tu eliminate cost in the produc
tion of the apple crop. We may look
fni ward tu an enlarged factory for the
building of such devices. Indeed, such
an imlustiy seems worthy the serious
consideration of local people. More
factories and nn increased payroll is
one of the needs of Hood River.
110(11) RIVER AND THE WEATHER
The drouth has been broken and wel
come rains have fallen ovur the state.
'I he dry weather has had a serious
effect in niar.y localities of the Ute.
In the Willamette valley and in touth
ern Oregon crop! have lufftred. It has
teen a dry fumrr.er in Hood River val
ley, tut no one has been heard to com
plain. The Hood Kiver valley i for
tunately situated, and such a year
proves the worth of the excellent local
irrigation systems. Although precipi
tation has been lacking, the unfailing
waters from Mount Hood's snow fields
and glaciers have continued their
ceaseless flow, and the crops of the
Hood Kiver valley have a plentiful
supply of water.
Portland was dry for a period of 74
dajs, the longest period of drouth re
corded for 4-1 years. The rain has been
of immense benelit in checking the for
est fires of the state. The emoke has
cleared away in the mountains of the
Mid-Columbia, and the beautiful pano
ramas are again impressive to our vis
itors.
THE CARNIVALS
The Cornet Hand and the Commercial
club have asked the city council for the
privilege of using the streets for pro
posed carnivals. The privileges will
proba'-ly be granted. There is 1,0 one,
however dignified he may pretend to
be, that does not enjoy the excitement
of a fhow day, the mighty bursts of the
show band and the incessant bark of
the spieler. Hut can any of us say that
a small town, or a large one for that
matter, is ever any better off" finan
cially or morally after a visit of an
ordinary traveling carnival company?
We do not make these statements for
the purpose of thowinp cold water on
the venture of the Comet band, or to
prevent success at their con ing carni
val. Hut we do think that the business
men of the small town are usually the
victims rather than the beneficiaries of
the usual carnival week.
We do not propose to offer criticisms
of the Fletcher Amusement Company,
which from reports has been well re
ceived in other cities in the state, or
the Kose City Amusement Co., which
has presented fairly wholesome amuse
ments here on former seasons. The
latter is better known as the Arnold
Co. Hut we wish to suggest that some
system might be worked out for amuse
ment of this sort, the merry-go-round,
the ferris wheel and such attractions.
No man, remembering his own child
hood days, won Itl wish to deprive the
hildren of these amusements. Yet
the usual street carnival visits a town
for the purpose of carrying off as much
of the floating cash as possible. And
most small towns are in need of all
these dimes, quarters and half dollars
to swell their own funds of circulation.
The Commercial club has at different
times proposed a street carnival of the
most part made up of home produc
tions. We do not know just how the
'"Hying jennies" could be produced,
but we, with many others, will welcome
the plans that will eliminate the bad
features of a traveling carnival and
yet include, the chief features of
amusement for the little folks.
The application of practical ideas and
hard work to a fruitful soil produce
results that are gratifying. Hood Kiv
er has forged to the front ranks of the
world's fruit districts, and on account
of the predominant apple industry, one
rarely sees an example of the general
farm. Those who have ventured along
Ibis line and it should not be culled a
venture; for a real farmer is usually a
success in any community have been
successful. The potatoes, corn and
bogs of W. It. Gibson can be taken as
an example.
Hefore many monhts have waxed ami
waned city councils and county courts
will be called on to make out their
budgets for the coming year's tax lev
ies. We note that in a number of com
munities the utmost economy will be
practiced. With prospects for low
prices on products to be sold and high
prices on necessary purchases it seems
advisable that local city ami county
ollicials should make all cuts that are
possible and within reason.
The county court, road supervisor in
charge, or that person or set of per
sons under whose jurisdiction the task
will come, have an opportunity to be
come popularly the making of a "turn
out" just west of the Tucker bridge.
The Cilacier extends greetings ami
best wishes to the state's baby news
paper, the Maupin Times, the first is
sue of which appeared last wtek. The
new publication will bo devoted to the
interests of southern Wasco county.
With the apple growers mobilizing
for the annual registration for the
packing school ami the youngsters
gathering at the public schools, Mon
day was, indeed, school day in Hood
Kiver.

WHITE SALMON.
(From tin' KiiterprUt!)
Fine'red strawberries were picked by
J. S. Degman in his strawberry patch
on the hill west of .town last Friday.
Ihe berries were grown on the runners
of new and old plants of the Clark
Seedling variety and were as nice as
any grown during the strawberry sea
son. There was something; doing every
minute in the way of out door sports
at the Roundup at Glenwond last week.
It was the largest crowd that town
ever had, fully H00 people, and over 150
of those were from White Salmon,
Hristol, Mountain Brook, Snowden ami
Underwood, mid the city keys were
turned over to the White Salmonites.
Incorporation papers will be tiled
shortly for a railroad to tie known as
the Trout Lake, Glenwood & Columbia
River K. R. It is expected that cars
will be running on the fiiet few miles
of road before snow flies. The object
of the road is to follow the shortest
and most feasible route from the rich
lumbering and farming belt of north
ern Klickitat, through the fruit district
of Snowden and Dorr to White Salmon
along the route of the abandoned Mount
Adams Rv., or down to the mouth of
Major Creek. The road is expected to
prove prolital le from the start, hauling
lugs to the Major Creek Lumber Co.'s
mill. 'I his road will be owned, or at
least controlled, locally, and on account
of having its terminals directly on the
mam line of the S. P. & S., with barge
connection to the O-.W. H. & N., will
probably be able to make lower rates
to the Columbia river and points in
Oregon and elsewhere than a road now
under construction from the Goldendale
branch, which would have to pay an S.
V. & S. tar i tT to the Columbia river.

AVERTED THE DUEL
Jitor Vanished With the Choice of
1 Weapons and Conditions.
Representative norland of Missouri
gives an account of the challenge to a
duel which occurred in Louisiana, sup
posedly among the last challenges of
that environment in the state. The
alTalr was between a gentleman who
belonged to one of the oldest families
i here and a sturdy blacksmith of Geor
gia, who bad become a man of political
influence.
The gentleman took offense at some
remarks of the Georgian and sent hlra
a challenge. The powerful blacksmith
n ils niHipbised.
" '1 know- nothing about this dueling
business,' said he, "and I positively will
not light.'
" "You must,' urged his friend. 'No
gentleman can refuse.'
" i am not a geutleman,' replied the
honest citizen of Georgia. 'I'm only
blacksmith.'
" Hut you will lie ruined If you do
net tight," continued his friends. 'You
will have the choice of weapons, and
yon can choose so as to give yourself
an eiual chance with your adversary.'
"The giant requested time In which
to consider the matter and ended by
accepting. He sent the following reply
to the Iiuislana gentleman:
" 'I accept, and, in the exercise of ray
privilege. I stipulate that the duel
shall take place In Lake Pontchartraln
In six feet of water, sledgehammers
to be used as weapons.'
"As his adversary was about five
feet eight Inches In height and the
blacksmith was seven feet, the con
ceit of the latter so pleased the Louisi
ana gentleman that he declared him
self satisfied, as he was one who
could appreciate a joke as well as
perpetrate one, and he declared the
duel off." Exchange.
HIS DREAM MATERIALIZED.
Curious Incident In the Career of
Novelist S. R. Crockett.
One morning the postman brought to
S. It. Crockett, the novelist, a letter
from the editor of the St. James'
Gazette containing a small check as
payment for a contribution. Mr.
Crockett knew that nothing wa due
to him. that he had been paid for all
articles, and -remarkable man he did
the check up In an explanatory note
and returned It to the editor.
The next day back came the check
from the editor remarkable man
with a note saying It was due. The
St. .lames Gazette had published an
article from the pen of Mr. Crockett
which had not been paid for, hence
the cheek. Again Mr. Crockett re
markable mini returned the check,
and still the remarkable editor refor
wnrtled It. this time with the article
cut out of the columns of the St.
James' Gazette.
Now comes the curious feature of
the incident. When Mr. Crockett
chipped bis eyes on the article he was
astonished to find it one of bis dreams
materialized, tine night, going to bed
extra tired, be dreamed that a good
Idea for a St. James' Gazette column
bud occurred to him, that be then and
there sut down, wrote It and posted it.
Next morning he remembered his
tli'eam and made up his mind some day
to write the article exactly as he
dreamed he hnd written It, when, to
his astonishment, came article aud
check from the newspaper. Few writ
ers earn checks while asleep. London

East Africa's Big Game.
Rig game of British East Africa, out
side of the three preserves of the col
ony, Is rapidly vanishing and, accord
ing to YV. T. Ilornnday, "is absolutely
certain to disappear in about one
fourth the time that it took South Af
rica to accomplish the same result."
Mr. Ilornnday points out that the pres
ent legal ling limit is ruinously extrav
agant. For $250 any man may buy the
right to kill 300 head of hoofed aud
horned nidmals of-forty-four species,
not counting carnivorous animals that
may also be killed. Thus the richest
big game fauna of any one spot In the
world, which nature has been several
million years la developing and placing
there, seems likely to be wiped out by
man within the next fifteen years.

Just an Oversight.
It was 0 o'clock in the morning in an
English town, and the roads were
blocked with snow. The maid, who
had been given a week's notice, was
facing the last day of her sojourn In
the bouse. She handed the usual cup
of tea to her mistress In bed and then
said sweetly. "Oh, ma'am, when ye
asked me yesterday if we had every
thing in for tonight's party I forgot to
tell ye we are out of coal and the fur
nace Is goln' out."
