Hood River for an Editorial Association.
. What fine thing it would be for the
editors of the state to hold one of their
association meetings at Hood River. The
! coming August association will be held
ut Astoria, but as the business men and
hotel proprieters of that city have taken
| no interest in ihhe matter it seems to
have been decided to charter a steamer
and 90 right through to the seaside and
ho.d their session nearer the salt sea
waves than the town where the bright
Astorian is published. At that session
the question of where the next meeting
is to be held will be decided and the
CHRoNICLE puts in its proposition that
Hood River be chosen as such place.
The people of that enterprising little city
would make the editors very welcome.
Excursions to Cloud Cap Inn at Mt
Hood could be made, and the glorious
! old mountain could be thoroughly stud
led and explored. 1t would. be a TRIP
long to be remembered. Then, too, the
editorial fraternity could see the neatest-
kept printing Office in the state, with its
floors nicely carpeted and its windows
filled with plants and flowers in profus-
ion, and no ink streaks on the wall left
by the hands of the devil. That would
be worth trip some distance to see
During the summer the air at Hood
River is sweeter, purer and cooler than
any place in Oregon, and it would be
the most delightful place in the world
for weary editors to rest and recuperate
for few days. By all means let Hood
River be the place selected.
Mr.. H. S. Hannah killed, this morn.
ing on Chenoweth creek, one OF the larg.
est rattlesnakes that he ever saw in his
. life. The snake measured A inches in
length and was fully as thick as Mr.
Hamlins arm, which is by no means &
small one, 1t had fifteen rattles and 1
button, and Mr.. Hannah would like tt
see the color of the mans hair that car
beat it.
Down went -- No, not McGint1
but the price of dress goods at A. NJ
