The editor of the Freewater Times
finds editing news paper not the easy
task it is cracked up to be by his critics.
His local page doesn't loom up as il
should, but he is bound to make her
loom if he has to use up his ten volumes
of cyclopedias. Judging from the fol-
lowing editorial in a recent issue, the
editor is having a strenuous time OF it..
He says:
''The last weeks issue seemed to be
quite free from proof. but the many
readers of the Times know already OF it
being my first attempt at editing. You
no doubt will notice the progress in this
issue. My local page of last week did
not loom up as it should, or would, had
a more experienced head have put itup.
But by the aid of ten volumes of an en-
cyclopedia will endeavor to make a
more able sheet than before. As we
grow older we learn more, as experience
is great teacher.
"My editorial columns also were the
remnants of bad luck and much COM
ment was upon them.
"But how we'll we know there is but
few journalists in this amediate country,
if they were numerous the poor editor
would not have to pay so many bills to
the shoemaker, but he will never quit.
"He will ever press onward and up
ward, and when he has succeeded you
will say, We'll done our good editor is
still with us.

Odell Notes.


The Rev. G. A. Wyman resumed his
lectures on ''Rome and Romanism, (" last
Sunday at 8 p. m, in the Union church.
Hans Jochimsen has recently been
showing gentleman from Kansas over
this wonderful country, and, | under
stand, has made sale of the Fouts place,
above the bridge on the Cloud Cap Inn
road. Hans is a hustler and usually
lands his game. =
Bert Boardman must be crack shot,
judging from the shot which won him
turkey for Thanksgiving.
The people Of Odell have been enjoy
ing themselves recently, judging from
the pleasant parties they have had. A
birthday party at Mr.. Crockett's for
Miss Ethel Wood, and dancing party
at Cop Henrich's.
T. p. Friday, OF Friday & Barnes, is
preparing ground for an apple orchard
on his land near Frank Stanton's.
w. A. Slingerland is now using the
Japs that II. F. Davidson had on Willow
Flat, and is clearing 20 acres of ground
he purchased Of Mr.. Crockett.
And still the red apples go to market.
R. Shelley shipped about 100 boxes to
Portland last week.
Albert Shelley, son of the Rev. Troy
Shelley, is spending the winter in Port
land.
Johnnie Roberts, in company with his
brother from Portland, is spending the
winter days on his homestead, and judg
ing from the class of goods they are
using they must be enjoying princely
time. In early days within. the recol
lection of the writer, the homesteader
did not enjoy the luxury OF oysters, eggs
and condensed cream, But Hood River
is truly an exception.
The new HARRISON bridge has. been
used for a week or more, very much to
the satisfaction OF the residents along
Neal creek.
The literary club will discuss the fol-
lowing question Thursday night: "Re-
solved, that the recent strike of the coal
miners was justifable" This being a
live, vital question and the leaders, Mr..
Carnes and Mr.. Brown being able de-
baters, should draw large crowd. In
duulblOu W lIl6 uGDdtC u HiuSlCdl uLd
literary programme will be rendered.
Why don't some one start dairy and
creamery in Hood River valley? With
good stock and clover meadows and
steady demand for such products, some
enterprising party will soon do so; then
what will the old-timers say?
The hay crop of East Hood River val
ley is almost all sold and winter just
fairly started. Is it true that this fer
tile section will continue to let the Will
lamette valley and the meadows along
the Columbia river supply the local
market? 1t should not be so. Plant
clover as well asapples and strawberries.
Roswell Shelley and wife returned
from Portland, Tuesday, and report bus
mess good there Evidences of prosper
ity are everywhere manifest, but while
walking 10 or ~ blocks only saw one
box of Hood Riyer apples displayed for
sale The markets are well supplied
with colorless, wormy apples from the
Willamette valley, such as no grower
here would have nerve sufficient to ship.
They are much inferior to The culls here,
but these will not last long and then
Hood River apples will be in demand.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1902.

The Torrens law, system OF register
ing land titles, enacted by the Oregon
legislature, is about to be given trial
by Judge Bellinger, who has applied to
have piece of land owned by himself
registered under this law The chief
point of the law is to give the owner OF
q piece of real estate an official certiti-
cate of title which will be absolute, and
which may be sold or transferred with
the same facility as a certificate of stock
in bank or government bond. This
law was passed by the legislature nearly
four years ago, but for some reason the
system has never been put in practice
in Oregon. Attorney John Leland Hen
derson of Hood River attempted to reg
lister titles to real estate for different
parties soon after the law was passed,
but the county court refused to do its
part in the matter, and Mr.. Henderson
was obliged to give up the attempt for
the time being, but has half-a-dozen
cases on file and will push the matter
till the law is recognized by the courts
and county officials if he has to appeal
to the legislature. Mr.. Henderson was
the first attorney in the state to file ap-
plications for certificates Of land titles
under this law. The Glacier has never
learned OF any other attorney in this
or any other county filing applications
under this law. Now that Judge Bel
linger has taken the matter in hand he
may succeed in getting his title regis
tered. Others will follow, and the law
will become popular with all except the
abstract companies, the lawyers and
the county officials whose fees will be
cut short by this simple method of
transferring title.
