The weather for the past two weeks
has been very changeable, some days
like summer and others like winter.
Last Friday was a warm sunshiny day,
and Saturday nearly two inches Of snow
fell and laid on the ground until Sunday
morning. Despite all bad weacher, the
grouse are hooting and the pheasants
drumming, and everything denotes that
spring has come.
Fred Chandler expects to commence
work on his new house soon.
Charles Chandler will rebuild as soon
as the weather will permit.
]. H. Shoemaker has his new house
well under way.
G.. w. Cavers bought new grubbing
machine from ]. r. Galligan and was
trying it last Saturday. He is well sat
isfied with it, as he can grub as fast as
five men can by hand. Mr.. Cavers has
contract to clear land for ]. H. Shoe
maker, and then he will clear his own
land and seed it to clover.
Mark Davenport has force of men at
work on the ditch, repairing and enlarg-
ing it. 1t will be made two feet wider
and six inches deeper. JOE.

Portland Oregon, March 3,l903.-Col.
j. p Shaw, ct all Concerning my re-
cent talk with some Of the residents Of
Hood River valley, beg to hand you
below our proposition for furnishing
them with our local and long distance
telephones.
II the farmers or others who are one
quarter Of mile or more outside the
city limits will construct and maintain
their own lines clear into our office at
Hood River, we will lease them our
regular long distance telephones at the
rate Of 5000 per year per station. This
entities them to the use OF our Hood
River exchange without additional
charge. Should they desire to use our
long distance at any time the conversa-
ton or message would be subject to our
regular Hood River long distance tariff
rate. This rate to apply TO an organi-
zation as whole or to any set Of resi-
dents along any specified road who
might join together in the construction
and maintenance Of their line. In the
latter this would be an easy and mex
pensiye proposition, provided the people
on any specified road should use A
or4x4 uprights nailed to their fence
posts. This would be sufficient to carry
the two wires that would answer in sup
plying subscribers on any one road up
to l5 in number Should they desire,
we can meet any line under this ar
rangement at the city limits with a loop
Of wire which we would stretch and
maintain at our own expense upon our
own poles from our Office to the city
limits at the rate of $2 so per month
for each loop of wire SO brought in.
That is the $3.50 per month would be di-
vided between the Is subscribers upon
any line that might have that number,
which is l6 cents each The company
would furnish the first equipment of 3
cells of battery for each phone, which
would last in the neighborhood Of year.
After that, as battery is needed the COM
pany would furnish the subscribers bat
tery at cost (about Is cents per cell.)
The above proposition means, that
should a atelephone get out Of order or
cease to be a telephone from any cause,
or be destroyed by fire, that the COM
pany will deliver to the subscriber at
our office in Hood River new set Of
telephones to take the place without addi-
tional cost or expense to the subscriber.
The defective telephone to be returned to
our Hood River office. In this way the
company practically masntains the tele-
phones and the subscribers maintain
their lines. Yours truly

Electric Light company had any author
ity to put in water under the ordinance
giving them franchise.
P. S. Davidson said he understood
the company would 60 ahead without a
franchise. No action was taken On mo-
tion.
Blowers talked aboutthe street grades;
said Surveyor Henderson found that the
surveys made by the parties establish
ing street grades did not agree with his
survey. Blowers thinks there is some
thing radically wrong with our street
surveys.
The mayor suggested that the city
should select place to empty garbage.
He finds that too much trash is slowed
away under houses and in vacant lots.
Considerable discussion ensued but no
conclusion was arrived at. No suitable
place could be thought OF.

Dorsey Scott Crapper, who died in

born in the state Of Kentucky. July %,

to Michigan, where at the age of 28

to Iowa, and was one of the earliest set
tiers of that state, and built the first
house in Newcastle, now Webster City.
He narrowly escaped the Indian massa-
ere of Spirit Lake in 1862. In 1878 he
crossed the plains to Oregon, and after
looking over other portions of the North
west, located at Hood River in 1888,
where he has since resided, with excep-
ton OF the last few months in Portland,
where he went for medical aid. In the
Crapper district as his home neighbor-
hood is known, he was considered man
of sterling worth and was honored and
respected by a large concourse of friends
throughout the valley. Here his wife
preceded him to the great beyond some
FIVE years ago. The following children
survive him: Mrs. Geo. McCurdy and
VIM. s. Crapper OF Hood River, and
Mrs. M. A. Hackett, Portland.
The funeral service was held in the
Valley Christian church, Hood River,

WHO IS THE MAN.

There are now many persons dis. cussed for the democratic presidential! nomination. Richard Olney. Alton B. Parker, David B. Hill. Arthur P Cor. mon. Grover Cleveland. Senator Will. liam J. Stone of Missouri, Tom l.. Johnson of Ohio, JUdson Harmon of Ohio, Adlai Stevenson of Illinois, Ben T. Cable of Illinois, Representative Williams of Illinois, Gov. Garvin of Rhode Island, William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska, and William Randolph Hearst From this list you can select a gold democrat, silTcr democrat, single taxer, a jurist, a politician, and old man, young man, an easterner or westerner. You can pick a short, fat man, or long, thin man. You can have 6 garrulous man or a reti- cent one. You can have idly man or the sad man You can find a rich
 man or a poor man You can find some who can not be either nominated or elected You can find some who can be nominated but not elected
 Who is the ideal of the list? Wto is just old enough and not too old, young enough and not too young, rich enough to wage a great campaign Jeffersonian enough to satisfy the most eXacting democrat, brilliant and re. sOurCeful enough to pit against Hanna and his crew, generous and philan- thropic enough to relieve distress and the results of disaster broad enough to regard the whole people. conserva tive enough to appeal to honest wealth as a true conseryator, progressive enough to encourage trades uuionism and be regarded as its best friend? Who is the man who polled the great. 1 est vote ever cast for any candidate of any party in New York, the man who taught Roosevelt and the north their duty to the south on the negro aues. tion. the man who fought for the ticket ir 1896 and 1900 as nc, other person nor on the ticket fought for it. who, in brief is the humanitarian. the Amsri caun. the patriot? It is Villain Ran. dolph Hearst.
