That was another glorious victory
when Hood River rubbed it into The
Dalles last Sunday to the tune of IL to g..
A few more such games Of good play
ing and Hood Rivers baseball reputa-
ton will be thoroughly established.
The Hood River people are proud of
their team. and ii they want any finan-
cial support all they've got to do is to
ask for it.
Think of six runs in the first inning
against team that has been practicing
each night for a week The way field
ers and basemen punched after ground
ers made it look like football contest.
But nobody got mad, and as the Chron-
icle said very noticeable feature OF the
game, and something quite unusual
when The Dalles and Hood River teams
meet, was the absence of wranging, for
all was serene. This was IN measure
due to the splendid decisions OF Umpire
Howell, but both teams acquitted them
selves ereditably in that regard.
Some of the Hood Rivermen played ex-
cellent ball, Charlie Morse in particular.
He gathered four grounders in and
put out each OF the runners before they
reached first. His playing was charac-
terized with not single error to his
credit Sheets also did some splendid
work and it would be most unfair not
to say that each member of the nine
put up splendid game. That Hood
River can play ball is very evident.
The lineup was as follows:

In all business enterprises there are
more or less difficulties and obstacles to
be overcome. and in this respect we
have not been sighted. At the present
time the question seems to arise in the
minds of the farmers Of the valley
lis the present proposed canal
going to be built? In answer we wish
to say to the public, that we are ready
to build the canal as soon as the balance
of the right of way can be secured. That
some of the right OF way is not granted
as yet is the reason we are not at work
now. This, however, we expect to be
settled soon. We have all arrangements
made for rapid construction. Allow us
to repeat-this new ditch will be built

His Heart Failed Him.

There arc many who have not the
heart to meet an emergency, but when
it is from physical weakness there is one
thing that will restore it TO the full force.
That one thing is Palmo Tablets, the
great nerve and manhood builder, sold
by Williams pharmacy. These tablets
will restore strength to the back and
kidneys, and rebuild the whole nervous
system in short time. Price SOC per
box. Do not hesitate TO get these tab
lets for any form of weakness.

Editor ireland Breaks Loose Again.

Nothing but the periphery of the
hills gemain about the old stage station
on the immigrant road below what is
now WaseO, by which the visitor of
1862 can today fix the location. The
hunk-rnom in which tons of gold dust
was stored, all the same as at Alaska
trail inns now, the grouty old keeper,
the nimhle drivers and the dogs are
missing, and so is the cOld-40 degrees
below zero for six weeks, with travel
record of 81 days from Walla Walla to
The Dalles, and 40 good men frozen.
A shad which weighed l094 pounds
was recently caught in a seine above
Astoria. Ii was 25 inches long by s
inches deep, aud was the largest shad
ever caught in American waters that
there is any record of. The first shad
caught in the Columbia river, by one
of George W. Hume's fishermen, in
1850, weighed about two pounds and
made breakfast at the Occidental for
a. ]. Megler and d. c. Ireland. The

the coming fish Of the Columbia-the

Heppner Assumes Normal Conditions.
Heppner Gazette

Heppner is assuming normal condi-
tions. The terrible effects of the awful
shock are gradually wearing away and
the people are once more beginning to
think and act in more natural way.
While almost 200 little mounds with
the covering of dirt yet fresh in the GEM
etery, and up and down Willow creek
the scenes OF such terrible destruction
bear silent evidence Of ourgreat disaster,
brave hearts with courage and good
deeds are lending aid and encourage
ment and making the best of our con-
ditions.
For the great generosity and aid from
the good people of this country, we ex-
tend heartfelt thanks.
Most of the strangers have gone and
the working forces have been reduced
to about so men. Thirty Of these men
are divided into three squads and are
working over the drifts down Willow
creek, endeavoring to find bodies vet
missing. The total number Of bodies
recovered to date is lS5, and there is
between Is and 20 missing.

Mr.. Hoyt, representing the commission

they find the Hood River product good

Death Of Silas Idleman.

Silas Idleman. father of Mrs. H. l..
Dumble OF Hood River, died at his nome
in Portland, last Friday, at the age of
81. DR.. and Mrs. Dumble were in Port
land Sunday in attendance at the funer-
al. Mr.. Idleman was born in Marion
county, Ohio, February 10, 1922 His
father and mother were among the
early pioneers of Marion county, having
come from the Virginias in the second
decade OF the last century, the son hav-
ing much to do with clearing the old
homestead, which afterwards descended
TO him. Mr.. Idleman followed farming
and stockraising very successfully until
1880, when he retired from active busi-
ness life. In 1889 he followed his fam
lily to Oregon and learned to love his
adopted even better than his native
state. On May IA, 1916, he was united
to Miss Catherine Ann Pontius, also of
pioneer stock from Pennsylvania. To
this union was born l3 children. Mrs.
Idleman died in 1899.

A. o. Hershey is under arrest by
Frank Davenport charged with taking
water unlawfully from the ditch of the
Valley Improvement company. The
trial is set for 8 o'clock Friday morning
before Justice NIckelsen, when Prose-

shey has not paid for his water, and
Davenport undertook to shut off his

Hershey would tear out the obstruction
and turn the water on to his land. An

To whom it may concern, and it does
coucern every decent citizen OF Hood
River. 1t also concerns even those who
lay no claim to decency or good, citizen
ship. When our little girls can no long
er walk the streets in broad daylight
without being grossly insulted by great
big boys, almost young men, it is high
time that some one, yes, every one,
wakes up to the true situation of morals
in our town. Even boys of ten years
old are guilty of the same offense. The
grown boy was not known by the little
girl, or he would be summarily dealt
with. Every effort will be made to dis
cover his identity. Parents, take your
boys take your boys and talk to them
about this matter, peradventure
they will heed your admonition. If
they do not, you must expect
them to be dealt with by the
offended parties. A MOTHER.

New Publications by Professor Carson,


English Composition" is a recent
publication by Professor Luella Clay
Carson, head Of the department of rhet-
oric and English literature at the Uni
versity OF Oregon. The book, bound in
cloth and copyrighted by the publishers,
j. X. Gill company, Portland, is COM
pilation OF standard rules and usage,
collected in compact form for the use OF
students, teachers and writer's. 1t is,
we believe, the first publication of its
kind in Oregon, and is credit to the
state as well as to the author.
Another valuable publication by
Professor Carson is a list Of books for
public school Libraries for all
the grades, including high school
library and a reference library for teach
ers of English. 1t gives the titles OF
books best adapted as supplementary
reading for children Of the various
grades. With the names of the books
are given the authors, the publishers
and price in cloth or paper. The lists
compiled have been tested and approved
by the ablest educators OF the East. This
pamphlet would be valuable as guide in
selecting books for the Hood River pub
lie school library
The Glacier desires to thank Professor
Carson for a copy of each of the books.
Professor Carson, as head of the
English department of the University OF
Oregon, has done much to interest the
young people of Oregon to more thor
ough study OF the English language, and
her influence in this line is already
showing itself in all parts of the North
west. The junior editor of the Glacier
is pleased to say he enjoyed two years
OF instruction in her classroom.

of the other fruit crops throughout the
state, Mr.. Smith said: 81 think that

succeeded in grating watermelon on

melon floating in his pond that is over

His idea is to grow them until cold
weather comes, when they will be cut
loose and fires built in them. The hot
water and steam will melt the ice as
they float down, and the river thus be

grating q cornstalk on the melon rind

of the useless seeds. 1t will meet the

Iowa and may solve the open-river

can be cut loose in the fall and the
crops hoated TO Astoria, when the rind
can be opened and the corn raised to
the elevators and shuted into the trans
ports for Manila.

EFFICIENT MEN
Who Will Serve as Public Of
ficiaIs of kowndes During
the Ensuing Four
Years.

The coming of the new year
will bring many changes in the
political as we'll as the business
world, and none will be more
marked than that which will take
place at the court house, for as a
result of the recent election there
viii be many changes in the per-
sonnal of the official family and
the affairs of the county will be
practically in the hands of new
set OF officials, who, however. are
as honorable, as energetic and as
praiseworthy as their predeces-
sors, and under whose regime
old Lowndes is certain to continue
to grow and prosper as she did
under the retiring administration.
Mr.. j. II. Armstrong, the re-
firing sheriff. has made q record
of which any man might justly
feel proud, and his mantle could
fall on no worthier shoulders than
those of his successor, Capt. T.
A. Eggleston, who has been his
faithful and efficient deputy for
the past four years and who il az
familiar with the duties and ar
fairs of the office as is d book
worm with the well beloved vol
umes that fill his library shelves.
1t is understood that Mr.. Eggles-
ton viii have as his deputy MIR.

throughout the county and who
will make . faithful and efficient

officer.
A gentleman who has just
cause to be, proud of the success
which he has achieved at the
very beginning of his poll ic al
career is Mr.. d. ID. Richards, who
succeeds Mr.. f. S. Moore as
chancery clerk. Entering the
race without previous political
experienceIand with only limited
acquaintance throughout the
county, but with a determination
to win, he went vigorously to
work and by plueky and ag-
gressive canvass succeeded in
reaching the coveted goal. He
is a young man possessed of
energy, intsgrity and ability, and
richly deserves the success which
he has achieved. Mr.. Richards
will have as his deputy Capt. B.
A. Lincoln, who recently tender
ed his resignation as city marshal
to take the second birth in the
chancery clerks office.
One of the jolliest and most
jovial men who ever occupied an
official position in the county is
Mr.. J. w. Cooper, who will be
succeeded in the circuit clerks
office by r. j. Gunter, another
fine gentleman. who is not en-
tirely without political experience,
having served at one time as a
member Of the Board of Super
visors, in which position he made
a most enviable record. He is a
brother of Hon. j. T. Gunter, our
efficient mayor, and will look af-
ter the affairs Of the office care
fully and pain stakingly.
Probably one of the best known
and most universally estee ned
men in the county il Mr.. J. w.
Gardner, who retires from the
treasurer's office in favor Of Mr..
z. p. Goolsby. Mr.. Goolsby's
success in politics admirably IL
lustrates what a boy with limited
means and few of the advantages
which fall to the lot of the average
youth can accomplish. He was
reared on a farm, but by hard
work and frugal habits he man
aged to save enough to take a
course at business college and
thus tit himself for duties more
responpible than those perform
ed by the ordinary farmers boy.
He had Some strong opponents
in the race for the treasurer's
office, but the same dogmatic
energy and zeal that enabled him
to surmount difficulties in the old
days on the farm aided him ma
terially in his campaign, and he
came out victorious.
