HOOD RIVER GLACIER, TflORSDAI, OCTOBER 2G, 1916 . ,
Hood River Has A Chance to Get A
Representative in the Legislature
Laying aside party politics, Hood River has an opportunity to
elect a representative to the State Legislature in George R, Wilbur,
the Democratic nominee for State Senator for Wasco and Hood River
minifies. He has the surinort of the business men of The Dalles,
which assures him of a considerable vote in Wasco county. If Hood
River county will lay aside political parties in local elections and
unite on Mr. Wilbur, and vote for him, Hood River county will be
represented by a personal representative. The three nominees for
Representative are from Wasco county. The Republican nominee
for State Senator is from Wasco county.
Hood River people know Mr. Wilbur to be a good businessman,
a good lawyer, and a good citizen. The counties of Hood River and
Wasco can do no better than to elect him.
The undersigned of various political affiliations are going to vote
for Mr. Wilbur because they want Hood River county personally rep
resented in the next legislature. Will you do the same?

NEW TAX LAW WAS
WORK OF KELLY
(From Tbe Dallei Chronicle)
The taipayera who thronged the
sheriff ' office recently to pay the re
maining half of their taxes, hate prob
ably given little thought to the differ
ence of the terms of payment under
the provision! of the law as it now is
and the law tbat was superseaea. u
is equally probable a greater portion
of tbe taxpayers do not know the
author of the bill or the work involved
to secure its passage.
Most of us do remember, however,
when the taxes became due and pay
able on April 1, the hardship it worked
to meet them in a single payment. It
is true the last half could have been
withheld from payment until Septem
ber ), but there was a penalty of one
per cent per month for six months and
a further penalty of 10 per cent if not
paid by September 1.
Not only did that law work a hard
ship upon the taxpayer, but its pro
vision that the collection of taxes
should be done by tbe county treasurer
nearly doubled the cost of collection.
Just why such a law should have been
enacted is difficult, if not unnecessary,
to explain at this late date, but with
all of its inconviences, hardships and
increased cost to administer it was the
law, and it remained for, J. L. Kelly,
who then represented us in the legisla
true, to force its repeal and secure the
enactment of the present law. And
strange as it may seem, there was a
strong opposition to overcome in effect
ing the repeal and organizing the nec
essary strength to put the ptesent law
through, and had it been in the custody
of a man less keen and able, and with
out the untiring energy of Mr. Kelly,
it would have failed of passage. The
delegation from Multnomah county
brought its combined strength to de
feat the repeal and block the enact
ment of the present law ; but stronger
than all was the opposition of the State
Tax Commission.
The commission contended the tax
payers would not pay unless the penal
ty was severe, but Mr. Kelly met them
bv showine that if the taxpayers failed
to pay their taxes and the counties
should run snort oi lunos iney couia
easily borrow at 6 per cent, while the
delinquent taxes would be earning the
county 12 per cent, so that there would
be a gain instead of a loss. His show
ing of the extra cost to the taxpayer
under the law as it then was: that the
increase of treasurers' salaries, and
the employment of deputies would
amount to more than $70,000 per an
num, was so strong and forcible that
he mustered the strength to carry his
measure through both houses, resulting
in the Dresent law.
As a candidate to succeed himself
Mr. Kelly could reasonably expect, and
ought to get, me uniiea support oi me
party associates, but beyond the part
isan feature his candidacy ought to
draw strong support from conservative
and sober minded citizens of all part
ies. In legislative bodies composed of
strong and able men, those counties
alone can hope for their interests to be
successfully guarded, who Bee to it
that their representatives are also
strong and able men.
Mr. Kelly's signal success in the
management of his affairs as farmer
and stockman, his keen business in
stinct and unerring judgment in public
affairs, together with his experience as
a lawmaker, exceptionally qualify him
to look after Wasco and Hood River
counties' interests at the coming ses
sion. when so many matters touching
the welfare of the good roads move
ment will come up for consideration.
In the apportionment of the state high
way fund and the allotment of the fed
eral appropriation under the provisions
of the Shackelford bill, the 29tb dis
trict may suffer a serious loss if it
fails to return him to the legislature,
LOCAL ARTILLERYMEN
AT THE STATE SHOOT
Despite their inexperience and tbe
fact that they were armed with old
rifles from the Portland armory, the
four members of Company 12, C. A. C,
O. N. G., made a good showing last
week at the state target practice at
Clackamss range. The men represent
ing the local organisation were: Lieu
tenant Brosius, Corporal Chandler, Roy
P. Dean and ulen B. Shoemaker, bid-
ney B. Carnine was alternate.
"I wish tbat every member of our
company could have participated in the
activity of tbe snoot, says Lieutenant
Brosius. It would nave so enmuseo
them that we would have one of the
best things on tbe coast here at Hood
River.
"We went to Portland, where on
Sunday evening we were given com
plete equipment from the armory. On
Monday and Tuesday wa participated
in practice shooting. On Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday the regular
matches took place. On Wednesday
the individual shooting was done, and
Thursday teams from the Oregon Third
Infantry and Coast Artillery companies
shot for first place. On this day also
contests in the Butterfield prize event
were shot off.
"On Friday the staff team of the
Coast Artillery and B Company shot
for the governor a trophy, the honors
going to the artillerymen."
Within the near future an indoor
range will be established in Heilbron
ner hall for practice with 22 rifles
The men will be furnished with data
and charts and this practice will be
beneficial in instructing the men how
to handle themselves when an outdoor
ranee is provided.
The government, on land to be leased
near town, will establish an outdoor
range by February I. 1 be local com
pany is expecting to receive lull equip
ment by November 15. This will in
clude a nne lor eacn man, ano as mucn
amunition as he needs for all the
shooting he desires to participate in.
Tbe executive committee of tbe Ar
tillery' club, the new social organization
of the.artillery company, is planning a
large dance to be held in the early
winter or late fall. The dance will be
the event of the social season and is
expected to take the place of the for
mer annual University club dances.

service to the Survey in its efforts to
determine the longevity of individual
ducks and the routes of migration of
the species. The bands are being at
tached to considerable numbers of wild
duck of several species which have
been cured of the duck sickness preva

Do You Like to Get Tired
In the Kitchen?
The way some woman hang on to their old-fashioned kitchens one would
think they liked to wear themselves out doing the work.
The miles of steps they take getting three meals a day; the unnecessary
trips to pantry, cellar and storeroom is drudgery that makes young women
quickly grow old.
A million women in America won't submit to such slavery. They bought
a Hoosier and do the same work easily and in half the time.
This Hoosier Cabinet
Cuts Work In Half
The vital part of your Cabinet
The picture above shows how the scienti
fic arrangement of the Hoosier makes it a
real helper. Storage space is above and
below. There is plenty of unhampered room
above and around the aluminum (or por
celain) work-table.
There are no useless little partitions to
chop up the space and leave no room for
work. Your cabinet must have big table
space to work on. The Hoosier gives it.
Came and nee these nix e.velusire
Hoosier features:
1 The all-metal glass front flour bin.
2 The gear-driven shaker flour sifter
which makes flour light and fluffy.
3 Scientific arrangement articles
needed most frequently easiest reached.
4 Revolving caster (shown in center
of illustration).
5 The ingenious, big-capacity sugar
bin holds twice as much as most other
bins.
6 -Finally, the doors that roll back at
the sides of the cabinet, entirely out of
way.
Prices and Terms
There are over 1,000,000 Hoosier Cabinets
in use. Enormous factory output makes
our low prices, which now range from $28 85
to $52.50, possible.
Have the Hoosier delivered at once by
paying only $1! You may make payments
at the rate of $1 per week, without extra
cost or interest. And regardless of the room
in your kitchen, there's special Hoosier mod
el to fit, at a price you can easily afford.
Every Woman Has a Right
to a Hoosier
When you can put a Hoosier in your kit
chen today for such a small sum, don't you
think it is false economy to save these few
dollars at the expense of your own strength
and health".'
At Least Come and See
the Hoosier
Have a demonstration of its exclusive
work-saving features. No obligation in
curred if you don't want to buy now. But
at least learn why over a million women
can't da without a Hoosier.
