East Side Grade Comnlefed.

The improvements to the East Side
grade were completed Saturday. This
piece of road is now the best in Hood
River valley. Mr.. Brace, who has had
charge of the work, has put in 40 days
on the job, and will turn over to the
county authorities a mile of the best
roadbed in Wasco county. The grade
has been widened, sharp curves reduced
and the whole of it turnpiked Provis-
ion has been made for carrying off the
surface water in the rainy reason, and
for this purpose seven culverts of terra.
Gotta tiling have been put in. At two
narrow points, where heretofore it has
been difficult to keep the road bed from
sliding into Hood river a hundred feet
below, stone walls OF rock and cement
have been built. These walls are three
feet thick, l2 feet high, and 25 and so
feet long. Bert Heath did the masonry
work. Some 250 feet of additional rail
ing will tend to calm the nerves Of peo-
pie who used to feel "shakyn behind a
team on the old grade.

The street sprinkler started W, last
Friday. 1t was welcome, as the dusty
streets on a windy day were becoming
intolerable. Mr.. Thompson failed to get
permission to pipe the water down State
Street. He got permission from the city
council to lay the pipe, but failed to get
permission from the property owners
below the road at DR.. Adams corner to
take water from the branch. They re-
fused to allow it to be piped away, but
the street sprinkler is filled at the same
old stand.
The citizens of Goldendale raised over
$500 one day last week for the purpose

Great Future for the Pacific Coast.

IL. r. Lewis, OF the Orlental-Amer-
ican company, Portland, visited his
family in Hood River last week, and
left Saturday on business trip to New
York. The Oriental American company
operates large United States bonded
warehouses in Portland, and does an ex-
tensive business importing Oriental
products and exporting Pacific coast
goods.
MIR. Lewis says his company has been
importing manufactured article from
cocoa oil, which for some uses is super
ior to butter. The Eastern manufactur-
ers of butterine, fearing the competition
of this cocoa oil, stirred up the govern
ment authorities to demand payment Of
the so per cent duty imposed on but
terine. This knocks out all the profits
of the business. But as the imported
product in question is not butterine, the
Oriental-American people will stand
suit until the article is recognized as
what it is-cocoa oil, which the Dingley
tariff admits free. If the government
fails to see things this way, the company
manufacturing the goods in the Orient
will move its factory to the United
States, import the crude oil and do the
refining in this country. The Portland
company doesn't propose to let its East
ern competitors get the better of the
deal.
Mr.. Lewis is enthusiastic over the
good times he sees ahead for the Pacific
coast, and predicts great changes in the
next five years. The present fight be
tween the Jim Hill interests and tht
Hartman system means much for tht
coast, declares Mr.. Lewis. II the Grea
Northern wins out it will put an end tt
the freight discrimination which nov
hangs like milestone around the neck
of coast shippers.
"Why, the success of Jim Hills tigh
means to the Pacific coast benefi
scarcely conceivable" remarked Mr.
Lewis in coversation to a Glacier man
"The Oriental commerce now handled
by Boston and New York could then af
ford to come directly across the Pacifi
to Portland. Most people have no ide;
OF the immensity of this trade with tn,
Far East"
Mr.. Lewis has been up and down the
coast several times in the last month o
two and says he finds business of al
kinds very prosperous.

JERSEY HONORS
HER DEAD HEROES
President Roosevelt Attends
Dedication Of the States
Monument
DROVE OVER HISTORIC BATTLEFIELD

sharpshurg, Md, Sept. 1s.-Under
lowering skies the magnificent monu-
ment erected on the historic battle
field of Antietam by the grateful state
of New Jersey to its men who fell in
the great engagement was dedicated.
The occasion was rendered particu-
larly noticeable by the presence at
and participation in the ceremonies of
the president Of the United States and
of Governor Murphy, the chief execu-
tive Of the state which was honoring
its heroes.
The monument is in the form of an
ornate Corinthian column Il granite,
40 feet high, surmounted BY heroic
figure in bronze of an officer with up
raised sword leading his men in
charge. The figure is intended as a
representation of Captain Irish, Of the
18th New Jersey Volunteers, who was
the only New Jersey officer killed at
Antietam After the assemblage had
been called to order by James o.
Smith, of the New Jersey monument
commission. and an invocation had
been pronounced by Rev. d. r. Frazer,
of Newark, Mr.. Smith reported to Gov
ernor Murphy the final work of the
commission. On behalf of the state
of New Jersey Governor Murphy ao
cepted the monument.
President Roosevelt in a lengthy
speech accepted the monument on be-
half of the federal government.
After the exercises the president,
with Governor Murphy, Senators
Kean and Dryden, and accompanied
by General Carmen, who commanded
the 18th New Jersey Volunteers in
the battle, entered a carriage and
drove to various points of interest on
the historic field. General Carmen
gave the president a vivid description
of the battle, indicating every point
Of interest and Importance. The presi.
dent alighted at Burnside Bridge
where some desperate fighting had oc
CURED; at Bloody Lane" a scene OF
frightful carnage; at the beautiful ma
tional cemetery, in the center of which
stands the colossal granite statue OF
an American soldier keeping silent
guard over the dead lying buried there
and at the quaint little Lutheran Me
mortal Church.
During the drive, which occupied
about two hours and a half, a singular
fact developed by the discussion Of the
battle. II was that throughout the GER.
emonies of the day, actively partici.
pated in entirely by citizens of New
Jersey. with the exception of the presi
dent the name Of the commander o.
the union troops in the great engage
ment General George B. Mcclellan, q
citizen and afterward a governor o.
the state Of New Jersey. was not men
toned once. Governor Murphy himself
recalled this curious, although quite
b unintentional lapse, and was concerned
deeply about the matter. lest the omis
sion might be misconstrued.
In conversation with the presiden
about General Mcclellan the governor
recalled the fact that he now lies burie'
in the city Of Trenton. N. j., and that I
member of McClellan's staf is one o
his most intimate friends. He warml.
! eulogized McClenan as one of the grea
commanders Of the war and as a gov
ernor of which New Jersey had reasol
to be proud.

TURKS ARE SLAUGHTERING
PEOPLE BY THOUSANDS
Subjects OF the Sultan Con.
tinue Their Work OF
Destruction

sofia, Bulgaria, sept. Io.-The for
elgn office here has received reliable
information that the Turks have de-
stroyed the town of Kastoria, SO miles
south Of Monastir, and have massacred
the population.
The report comes from sources ad-
hitting of little doubt. but the details
are lacking. II was received with the
greatest concern by the officials here.
The population of Kastoria numbers
about 10000 persons, and the massacre
of such a number in one place, II the
report be true, exceeds anything which
has yet occurred in Macedonia. At the
present critical moment, when popular
feeling is intense, the effect of the re-
port Of such stupendous slaughter may
be most serious.
The press is assuming a bellicose
tone The Dnevnik complains that the
governments partial mobilization Of
three divisions is utterly inadequate,
and urges the immediate mobilization
of the whole Bulgarian army pointing
out that the experience Of other ma
tions-F'rance, the United States ana
Austria-has proved that it IS always
necessary to display strength when
dealing with Turkey.
The paper advises the government to
act now, "at favorable moment, wnen
the people of Europe are evidencing
announcement of Bulgaria."
The government, while steadily pro-
ceeding with the partial mobilization
plans, is endeavoring to avoid unneces-
sarily exciting the people, and conse-
quently has resolved not to mobilize
any part Of the Sofia garrison.
