sions with good SOIL Those who turned
out for this work were: S. B. Egbert,
John Hinrichs, James McClintock, Rob
ert and Ernest Rand, Albert Garrabrant,
D. N. and Ed Byerlee, NJ Iauffenberger,
Robert Foley. The supervisor prom
ised three teams, which dwindled down
to one team and driver. They were both
good workers, however, and were made
good use of Tuesday, W. s. Boorman,
Charley McVay and Mr.. Powell worked
on their portion OF the road. If other
citizens along the road who were invit-
ed to the party had come they would
have been able to have made the road
good to the city limits, as it was they
reached the foot of the last hill on their
part of the road. 1t is hoped that the
others, who could not attend Monday,
will finish the job, which will not take
them more than half day, and thus
put the road in excellent condition for
hauling berries. II all the users of the
state road would take an equal interest
in it the road could be made one of the
best and pleasantest drives in the valley,
but as long as the only interest some
OF the heaviest users manifest is to haul
big loads of lumber over it regardless
of lis condition, the prospect is not very
encouraging to those who would

Rasket Social Saturday Night.

The Order of Washington will give a
basket social in Odd Fellows hall Sat
urday night of this week. A short lit
erary and musical programme will be
given. The ladies of the order are re-
quested to bring baskets filled with
lunch, and all lady friends of the order
are cordially invited to come also, and
bring basket of lunch and man; the
one to be sold and the other to buy, and
thus hel p us to celebrate our first ami
versary. The proceeds from the sale of
the baskets will be used to procure uni
form regalia, etc., for the union. At
the last meeting Of the union the mem
bers were treated to dainty lunch of
cake, sandwiches, pie and coffee, served
by the Misses Emalie and Jane Coates,
who furnished the refreshments entire.
There are no members of the union who
are deserving of greater credit, or who
are more faithful to the interests of the
order than the Misses Coates, and the
union gladly rendered them a hearty
vote of thanks for their generous thought
fulness in providing such a fine lunch.
A novel feature of the lunch was, that
on each plate was placed neatly writ
ten slip of paper bearing quotations from
three popular authors, the same quota
tions being on each paper, and prize
of fine chocolate cake was offered to
the one naming all, or at least two OF
them. The prize was won by Mrs, D..
N. Byerlee, who named two out OF the
three authors.

viii Build $4,000 Hotel.

1t is announced that the real estate
syndicate, OF which Messrs. Batchelder
& Erwin are trustees, will build a $40 900
hotel this summer in Riverview park,
Hood River Il r Erwin stated to the
Glacier that his company is busy now
arranging plans and specifications, and
that it is the intention to begin the work
of construction as soon as possible, and
to have the hotel open some time this
summer A number of wealthy Port
landers are backing the enterprise, and
it is their intention to make the hotel
headquarters for their summer outings.
The hotel will be known as the Country
Club Inn.
The site for the proposed Inn is on the
sloping bank Of the Columbia to the west
of town near the old ice house site The
location is a perfect wooded park, with
large oak groves, and evergreens of pine
and fir, A splendid view of Mount
Adams is obtained to the north, while
the broad Columbia is spread out in
front. 1t would be hard to find more
slightly or picturesque location for the
Country Club Inn
In addition to the hotel proper, cot
tages will be built and walks and drive
ways will be constructed throughout the
woods. Hood River is almost as famous
for its pleasure as summer resort as
for its strawberries and apples, and the
hotel will be built to accommodate the
large amount of tourist and pleasure
travel which wishes to visit Hood River,
not only in summer but during the
whole year.
"Mark my prediction" said Mr.. Err
win, who is very enthusiastic over the
prospect, Sin five years there will be a
dozen such hotels scattered through
out Hood River valley. When
the road is opened to Lost lake we ex-
pect to arrange accommodations for out
ing parties at the lake and in the noun
tains. During the 1905 fair there will be
great many people attracted to Mount
Hood and other scenic points in our
valley This will make lots of business. y

lance of the Unitarian church, last Friday,
and is published by request;
True faith, producing love to God and man,
Say, Echo is not this the Gospel plan?
The Gospel plan.
Must my faith and love to Jesus show,
BY doing good to ALL both friend and foe?
Both friend and foe.
But If brother hates and treats me Ill,
Must | return him good, and love him still?
Love him still?
If he my failings watches TO reveal
Must his faults as carefully conceal?
As carefully conceal.
But If my name and character be blast,
And cruel malice, too, a long time last;
And, if / sorrow and atfiiction know,
He loves TO add unto my cup of woe;
In this uncommon, this peculiar case,
Sweet Echo, say, must still love and bless?
Still love and bless
Whatever usage Ill may receive,
Must be patient Sill, and still forgive?
Be patient still, and still forgive.

Governor Steunenberg in Hood River.

Hon Frank Steunenberg, ex-governor
of Idaho, and Senator John Kincaid
were in Hood River this week, leaving
Wednesday afternoon for Portland,
where the gentlemen expect to meet
President Roosevelt and then to con-
tinue on to California. Governor Steun-
enberg and Senator Kincaid are among
the financial hackers of the Hood River
lrrigating company. Accompanied by
Colonel j. Z. Bryant they drove to the
headgate of the canal above Winans
and returned by way of the East Side.
Although having but limited time in
which to see the valley, the governor
expressed himself as highly pleased
with everything he saw. The fruit in
dUstry particularly appealed to him as
he is horticulturist of ability. In Ida
ho he is interested in large apple orch
ards and also has great deal of capital
invested in irrigating systems.
"The possibilities of your valley are
surprising" said the former Idaho ex-
ecutiye, II had no idea of the resources
of Hood River, and shall be delighted to
return at my earliest opportunity and
spend more time among your orchards. "
Governor Steunenberg became famous
for his effective methods in suppressing
the riots in the Wardner coal fields sew
eral years ago. He was also a newspaper
man at one time,

A Farce in Nine Innings.

The baseball editor took in the exhi-
bition of the national game, Sunday
afternoon on the hill, and has furnished
the following account of what he saw :
The striking feature of the game was
pine Root Graham's playing in left
garden, where, in his attempts to cor
raj some of the "high- ones" he con-
structed a little wire fence around
an 8xl0 space, but in his efforts to get
the "high onesh into the corral he
would, in his mad dashings after them,
grab out few stumps and break down
few young pines. Another feature of
the game was Barber" Haynes base
running. On any hit he would make
second base by his familiar method of
short cuts" The playing of Count"
Markham was also another feature, in
the way that his big basket, which he
had to catch the ball, would always be
on the wrong hand, hence he would
always receive it on the fingers. "Sir"
Williams is without doubt the best
second baseman, though little stiff.
We advise him to keep on, as he will
improve. "Deeze" Davidson is so famil-
lar with the game and not the bat that
no particular mention in regard to his
ability is needed. Lefty" Fleming is
a very shifty player, but makes better
fisherman.
Of 'the not so many" all did work
that was a treat TO the 1850 fans who
were present, but a very exciting thing
happened and had it not been for our
police department, serious riot would
have taken place, all due to the "bum-
piring" of indicator Holder" Foster,
whomade some of the rankest decisions
ever heard here. The two teams have
an ill feeling toward each other, so
come to see the next game; an excit-
ing time is assured.
The teams had positions as follows:
The Not so Many :-"Bumbes" Dav-
idson, catcher; Logger" Morse, pitch
er; "Moose" Sheets, short stop; "Blue
Jeans" Fabrick 1st base; depot"
Haynes, I'd base; Razor Backn Olnger,
Sd base; "Nine Spot" Herman, right
field; Flagstaff" De Witt, center field;
"Nager" Dukes left field
The Has Been Once:-" Barber
Haynes, catcher; HBand" Sawyer,
pitcher, "Slow Poke" Ulrich, short stop;
"Count" Markham, 1st base; "Sir"
Williams, I'd base; Lefty" Fleming, Sd
base; "Deeze" Davidson, right field;
"Duke" Rand, center field; Pine Root"
Graham, left field.
