B T
rui
lTU
Republican Candidate for United
States Senator
Aro you better off now than you were un
der a Republican AdministrationP
Are you satisfied?
If you believe in the principles of the Re
publican Party, if you are convinced that
these principles are best for the country,
then prove it by voting for your standard
bearer, Robert A. Booth, Republican Candi
date for United States Senator.
You know that under Republican presi
dents the people of the United States have
good times.
You know that under Democratic presi
dents you have democratic times.
Remember the prosperity under McKin
ley, Roosevelt and Taft.
Remember the conditions under Cleve
land and Wilson.
The issue in this campaign is not one of
personality. It is not one of non-partisanship.
It is a question whether you prefer
prosperity under Republican administration.
Do you have enough workP Are your
wages good? Is your business what you
want it to be?
If you are satisfied with present conditi
ons, woll and good; if you believe the present
situation is better than under McKinley,
Roosevelt and Taft, you know what to do.
The way to bring prosperity is to help
elect a Republican Senate. The Republican
candidate in Oregon is R. A. Booth.
This is a Republican year. Vote the tick
et straight.

AN AUTUMN TRIP
AROUND THE LOOP
j Whether it be wintertime, tpring,
: lummer or in the autumn, a trip
' around the "loop" in the Hood River
' valley ii filled with delight. But of
j course in the dayi of Ma; and in the
; fall harvest season the orcbarda are
i moat beautiful. It is not bard to find
: those who declare that the joy of an
; afternoon's ride in tbe blossoming per
! iod cannot be beaten, while others
j make the days of Indian summer their
' favorites.
j Tbe plessures of a motor ride at this
I season of the year through the' Hood
1 River valley are at least sufficient to
nil the souls of any of us full of the
! joy of living. The atmosphere is really
vibrant wtib a vigor that imparts itself
; to tne numan body, and yet the warm
; sunshine playa upon the roadways,
seems to caress the sides of the brown,
frost touched hillsides and shimmers on
the red and russett apples. Tbe ad
mixture of sunshine and frost are na
ture's ingredients from which she
brews a kind of atmospheric cocktail,
a beverage that is intoxicating and
yet one that the warmest adherent of
prohibition policies would not dare to
raise a protest against. Tbia sunshine
anJ frost, of which the valley apple
growers are so"proud plsces at once
roses in the cheeks of men and women
and a glow on the cheeks of the apple.
But the motorist, as he spins over
the treelined roada, drinks not only
with his lungs but by the sense of
vision as well. '1 he ripe apples hang
everywhere. In every; orchard are
lifted the ladders of pickers. The tree
rows show boxes of fruit ready for the
packing shed. These are pictures of
industry and activity. And the homes
of the orchardists are never more
beautiful than in autumn. The feath
ery blooms of asters may be seen, and
dozens of different colored dahlias.
While Hood Kiver can raise roses that
will rival those of Portland, the Rose
City, these flowers of the Indian sum
mer grow superbly here.
CANDY MADE FROM
APPLE CIDER SYRUP
RED DEATH OF WAR
Tragic Fate of Maximilian at the
Hands of the Mexicans.
HIS PENALTY fOR FAILURE.
The day may not be far away when,
instead of maple syrup on our cakes in
the morning we will eat with just as
keen, or perhaps keener, relish the de
licious syrup mude from apple cider.
H. C. Gore, of Washington, D. C, an
expert from the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, who arrived here
the first of the month, is now busy
completing the installation of apparatus
to be used in an experiment of the new
syrup on a commercial basis. Mr. Gore
has been working on experiments of
the same natuie for a number of years.
He was here last year and succeeded in
getting a product that was in every
way satisfactory. The only test now
remaining is the problem of proving
whether the syrup can be made for a
cost that will make possible its com
mercial distribution. Mr. Gore thinks
that the manufacture this year on a
large scale will prove this possible. In
such case the increasing quantities of
low grade apples will find a profitable
outlet.
Last week C. J. Calkins, of the Hood
River Apple Vinegar Company, where
Mr. Gore has installed apparatus, exhi
bited candy made by his daughter from
the new syrup. The sweets were of
excellent flavor.
Mr. Gore also has a large lot of ma
chinery ready for work at the old ware
house of the Hood River Apple Grow
ers Union.
ELECTRIC HANGS AT
TRACTIVE BULLETINS
The Electric theatre last week placed
at the entrance of the popular moving
picture play house a set of attractive
boards, from which to bulletin attrac
tions being presented and those com-j
ing. two ol the bill boards hang at
the entrance and exit to the theater
like doors. When the shows are on
the boards are swung back against the
wall.
The Electric recently installed a new
moving picture machine and an auoar
atus for changing the alternating to a
direct current.
Make-up Man in Bad Mix-up
In handling the slugs which make up
tne lines in a newspaper, and in sep
arating the various items, the make-up
man sometimes gets the lines mixed up
and they naturally read rather queer.
as an illustration or what can happen,
we cite the mix-up of the Bangor, Pa.,
News a few days ago when the printer
got a wedding and an auction sale
mixed up with the following results:
"William Smith, the only son of Mr.
and Mrs. Jos. Smith, and Miss Lucy
Anderson were disposed of at pubile
auction at my farm one mile east, in
the presence of 70 guests, including
two mules and 12 head of cattle.
"Rev. Jackson tied the nuptial knot
for the parties, averaging 1,250 pounds
on hoof. The bcautiul home of the
bride was decorated with one sulky
rake, one feed grinder and two sets of
work harness, nearly new, and just be
fore the ceremony was pronounced the
Mendel and Sons wedding march was
rendered by one milch cow, five years
old, one JerseyVow and one sheep, who
carrying a bunch of brido's roses in her
hand, wus very beautiful. She wore
one light spring wagon, two crates of
apples, three racks of hay, one grind
stone of mousseline de soie and trim
imngs with about one hundred bushels
of spuds. The bridal couple left yes
terday on an extended trip. Terms,
spot cash."
Forest Notes
As many as 72 different kinds of
wood are used in the manufacture of
umbrella handles, canes and whips in
this country.
Authentic records show that cinders,
from a forest fire in the tree tops in
northern Washington this fall, were
carried a distance of 20 miles.
According to the latest available fig
ures, Pennsylvania stands fifth in the
production of wood pulp and is second
to West Virigina in the amount of slab
and other sawmill waste used for tiuln-
maine bihuub iiuru.
The better wood engravings are
made almost exclusively of boxwood,
and the large blocks are made of small
pieces glued together. The engraving
is done across the end of the grain.
Japanese wood prints, on the other
hand, are made on lengthwise sections
of cherry wood parallel to the grain.
Throughout the national forests the
rangera are posting the roads with per
manent guide signs which tell distances
and directions, especially at the forks
and cross roads. The signs are usually
put up in the winter when other work
tends to be light. On some forests the
rangers go on snowshoes, dragging
loaded sleds, and nail the aignboads to
the roadside trees. j

No more tragic Incident la recorded
In history than the execution of Mail
mumn. Half a century ago a younger
brother of the Emperor Francis Joseph
waa sent to ruie Mexico. Together with
but wife, be ft upon tbe frail throne,
even then tottering. How be failed la
another story, but when he was taken
prisoner be prepared himself for death
too red death of war.
In a volumo written some years ago
Major John N. Kd wards pictures graph
ically the closing hours of tbe tall.
handsome prince who would be king
follows:
The morning broke fair and white In
the aky, and at C:30 o'clock three car
riage drew up In front of the main
gat of tbe convent of Capuchins.
Tbe bells rang iu all tbe steeples, there
were soldiers everywhere, and' long
lines of glittering steel that rose and
fell in yet the soft, sweet hush of the
morning.
In the first carriage got Maximilian
and Father Sorta, a priest In the sec
ond carriage there came Mlramon and
bis priest. In the third Mcjla and his.
Then the solemn corteen atnrted
All the people were In the street On
tbe faces of the multitude there were
evidences of genuine and unaffected
sorrow. Some among the crowd lifted
their hats aa the victims passed along,
some turned away tbelr beads and
wept, and some, even among the sol
diers and amid the hostile ranks of the
Liberals, fell uion their knees and
wept
Tbe place of surrender was to be
the place of ciecutlon. Northwest of
tbe city a mile or more tbe II111 of the
Bells (El Cerro de las Campnnas) up
reared itself. It was inclosed on three
sides by 0,000 soldiers of all arms, leav
ing the rear or uncovered side resting
upon a wall. ' '
It was 7:30 o'clock when the car
riages halted at the place of execution.
Maximilian was thu first to alight lie
stepped proudly down, took a handker
chief from bis pocket and bis bnt from
bis head and beckoned for one of his
Mexican servants to approach. The
man came.
"Take these," the emperor said.
"They are all I have to give."
The faithful Indian took them, kissed
them, cried over them, fell upon his
knees a few moments In prayer to the
good God for the good master and
arose a hero.
In front of the dead wall three cross
es had been firmly embedded in the
ground. On each Bide was a placard
bearing the name of tbe victim to be
immolated there. That upon the right
was where the emperor was to be shot,
that in the center was Mlramon, that
upon tbe left for the grim old stoic and
fighter Mejla.
Maximilian walked firmly to his
place. The three men embraced each
other three times. To Mejia he said:
"We will meet in heaven."
Mejia bowed, smiled and laid his
hand upon his heart
To MirainoQ he Bald:
"Brave men are respected by sover
eigns. Teriult me to give you tbe
place of boii'ir."
As he said this he took Mlramon gen
tly by tbe firm and led him to the cen
ter cross, embracing lilm for the last
time.
Escobedo was not on the ground. An
ald-de-camp, however, brought permis
sion for each of the victims to deliver
a farewell address. Tbe emperor spoke
briefly. Mlramon drew from bis pocket
a small pU e of paper and read.
When Mlramon had ceased reading
Maximilian placed his hand on his
breast, threw up his head and cried iu
a singuarly calm and penetrating
voice, "Fire:"
Eighteen muskets were discharged as
one musket. Mejia and Miramon died
instantly. Four bullets struck tbe em
peror, three In the left and one in the
right breast. Three of these bullets
passed entirely through his body, com
ing out high up on the left shoulder;
the other remained embedded In the
right lung. The emperor fell a little
sideways and upon his right side, ex
claiming almost gently and sadly:
"Oh, hombre, hoinbre! Oh, man! Oh,
man!"
He was not yet dead. A soldier went
tip close to him and fired Into his
stomach. The emperor moved slightly
as If still sensible to pain. Another
came out of the flrlug party and, put
ting the muzzle of bis musket up close
to bis breast, shot him fairly through
the heart.
The tragedy was ended. Mexican
vengeance was satisfied; the soul of
the unfortunate prince was with its
God, and until tbe judgment day the
blood of one who was too young and
too gentle to die will cry out from the
ground even as the blood of Abel
Sugar a Food.

Vote to Save Industrial Oregon
VOTE "NO" 329 and "NO" 331
v
The very life of the future manufacturing and industrial progress of "
Oregon hinges upon the defeat of the so-calied "Water Front" bills, to be vot
ed on Tuesday, November 3rd.
So cunning and adroitly are these bills worded there is grave danger
that many people will be deceived.
If these measures become laws the result will be that the State will take
title to the tidelands and submerged lands and will be prohibited from selling
any of thesetonds. They can only be leased for docks. No more ship-yards,
saw-mills,'canneries or other plants requiring access to deep water nothing
but docks, docks, docks.
Every citizen of Oregon wage earner, farmer, business man or wo
man, wants tojprosper. These measures if enacted will throttle progress at
the gate. Investors will shun Oregon. This means no work for the wage
earner, nothing to pay the store-keeper with and therefore nothing to pass on
to the farmer or producer. Let no one think these bills do not concern him.
Before you go into the booth to vote, read 329 and 33 1 carefully.
Talk to your neighbors about them.
Oregon is rich in natural resources, but poor in development. What ;
the State needs above everything else is outside money to come in and deve
lop its resources. That means GOOD WAGES, PLENTY OF WORK,
GOOD PRICES and GOOD TIMES.
This' is not a political question; it concerns only the prosperity of
Oregon and of you.
Sr Give Progress and Good Time a helping hand by voting "NO" 329
and "NO" 331.
