The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1903-08-06

glad to welcome you Mr.. Editor, and all
such as are interested in the develop
ment of this truly wonderful section.
Call again.
The Cloud Cap Inn stages are much
in evidence these days. There is u
touch of history about these old thor
ough-brace stages. The sight of them
awakens tender recollections of pioneer
days in the West. The days of '49-the
days of g0ld;the days when the red man
was terror. Then later on, the days
of the bandit; the days of hold-ups-
the days of prosperity, the days when
people were held up they had some
thing to give up. The days when there
was moral code that punished the
offenders without court or jury. The
days when II was not necessary to have
lock or key on granary or storehouse.
Oh! those dear, old days when people
were neighborly; when the latch string
was always out, when the familiar
word was Howdy, light and come in. !"
These days of modern invention and
vice-but with the passing of the old
thorough-brace coach passed the good
old pioneer days, and with these days
the pioneer himself, whose life was an
important factor in the history of dear
old Oregon. Passing from these pio-
neer days and the sturdy pioneers who
have gone to their reward, let US, in
order to perpetuate their memory, build
solid structure upon the foundation
they laid, that the future of our great
state may prove worthy factor In our
great nation.
Still the work of development goes
on. Frank A. Massee of Willow Flat,
who recently purchased land from c..
l.. Rogers, has let contract for lot
Of grubbing, Mr. Massee will soon erect
new home.
Referring to that ditch meeting Sat
urday, permit this thought. MIR. Bone,
representing the company, has shown
his faith in this country by putting In
many thousands Of dollars, and is now
about ready TO serve the people of the
East Side with sufficient water to make
this section not only profitable but a
beautiful suburb. If their facilities are
not sufficient, why not take up the
two hundred shares of stock that are
for sale, at the same price it was sold
at three years ago, thereby making 25
per cent, and push the work along
speedily, to the end that this section
may be reclaimed and beautified as
nothing hut water can do. II is my
opinion that the necessary work of irri.
cation has been materially retarded
this season by reason of contracts having
been signed with a concern that the peo-
pie know little of, and from which as yet
have nothing but promises, many OF
which, | am reliably informed, can
never be fulfilled. 1t is proper to have
competition in all legitimate lines, but
better be right before proceeding too
far.
E. I. Folts has two Jersey heifers
only two years old that he is milking,
which brought him revenue in July
of SIT in milk and butter, and one of
them is decreasing in milk and will be
fresh in October again. Mr.. Folts
figures that when they are four
years old they will average IS
pounds of butter each a week. Why
not invest in Jersey cows and clover?
Seventy-five per cent of the butter sold
at the Little White Store is creamery
butter shipped from Portland, simply
because ranch butter cannot be had.

aolyoke, Aug 27.-Hoqyo4ze rubbed
it into Norwich yesterday at Holyoke
and batted Quinn for Ia bases, while
the coony Vickers allowed but two
hits, and only one of the Reds crossed
the plate The Holyoke twirler was
backed up by a team that flelded per-
fectly, while Quinn had to bear the
burden of the many errors which his
team made back OF him. There were
but two innings in which Norwich
had the chance to send more than
three men to the bat, one of them be-
ing when Vickers hit two men in sue
cession, and the other when this
same Vickers allowed two consecutive
bases on balls. The latter was the
occasion for the visitors scoring their
only run. The Hoiyokes scored their
runs by heavy and timely batting, and
this, together with the boz
sprinkling of Norwich errors, allowed
eight men TO run around the bases.
The game was terribly one-sided,
and the Paper City aggregation had
things their own way from the very
beginning. Vickers struck out ten
men and the other II couldn't do any
thing with his bends and twists, and
the whole program was lark for the
Holyokes. They put UP good game
of ball and some Of the work in the
field was admirable. Rossman made
brilliant catch and, McAndrews got
after all kinds of balls. The umpir,
ing of Gray was not up to it's usual
standard, bat there was not a single
kick in the whole game. The score

TRUE BLUE TRADE UNIoNIsM.
How a Bricklayer's House Has Been Built
by Associates for His Large Family.

In these days of rioting and blacknail in con-
nection with strikes in the building trades 1t is
refreshing to chronicle incident that shows
true fraternalism and genuine manhood. In
Of the many local unions of bricklayers in New
York there is a member who has been unable to
find for his family a decent home. The reason is
peculiar. The sturdy mechanic is the father of
eleven children, the eldest of whom is only about
fifteen years old Owners Of houses and fats in
Manhattan halt and consider If the applicant for
apartment has two three children. When
fine looking under middle age comes to them
with brood Of eleven. they simply throw up their
hands and say MOI IN as many languages as
they can command. This precaution is adopted to
prevent the awful consequences of possible mis-
understanding. This is the way John BARLEY has
been received by Manhattan real estate agents for
several years, and when from the sheer necessity
for shelter. he has been compelled to reserve
about threefOurths of the truth discovery has fol-
lowed within month or two, and the leases have
been cancelled. Poor John on the theory that
three removes bad fire." has been
burned out in two years times than he has
fingers and toes Recently he conhded to the
members of his local union the gravity Of his
situation. They took lively interest in the sub
ject They advised him to go to suburb and
buy or build home for his interesting family.
Just how a man with a family of an even dozen
