we were sufficiently concerned at

tions, which convinced us that repre-.

mild, yet conclusive attacks ofsmallpox

gaining our freedom we can say that
our home is as free from contagion as q
strict compliance with the rules of mpd-
ical science can make it.
So far this chronicle will interest but
few, but the important question comes
up-how shall we eradicate this thing
from the many homes and communities
in the Northwest, which have it to con.
tend with? Certainly it cannot be done
by secreting it in our homes and cloth
ing and exposing all those who visit us
or whom we visit to the disease.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 2s, 1904.

Candy post, q. A. r, has commenced
preparations for entertaining the del
egates to the state eneampments of the
Grand Army of the Republic, Women's
Relief Corps and Ladies of the Grand
Army of the Republic, which encamP
ments will be held in Hood River June
%, "a and 25 of this year The council
of administration will meet in Port
land, January 80, and fix upon these
dates in conformity with the expressed
wish of Candy post. 1t was thought
that these dates, occurring during our
strawberry season, will suit everybody
as nearly as they could be suited.
Those who will be our visitors on that
occasion desired to come during our
strawberry season, and it was the wish
of the delegates who extended the in
vitatiOn to come to Hood River that
they come at that time. By the
23d of June the rush of the work Of the
strawberry harvest will be over, but
there will still be plenty of the luscious
Hood River berries with which to treat
our guests, and there will be opportu'
nifty for the guests to see the work oi
gathering and shipping the fruit
The invitation extended to the sta e
encampments to come to Hood Rlar
was given after interviewing the lead
ing citizens and business men Of Oh
town, who were unanimous in prom.
i,ing substantial aid towards the enter
tainment Of the delegates of the three
orders and their friends should they
favor US by coming here. 1t is there
fore with q full understanding that
the post will be backed by the united
sentiment Of the community that thu
committee Of arrangements enters upon
its duties. This will be the last time a
state eneampment of the Grand Army
of the Republic will honor Hood Rive
as the place Of meeting. A few NOR
years, and few more country towns
will be thus bonored, and then the
city of Portland, where the greatest
number of old soldiers will reside, will
be made the permanent meeting place
for the annual reunion of the Grand
Army of the Republic until the state
encampment will be no more. Let us
therefore resolve to entertain in fit
ting manner this remnant ofthe mighty
armies that marched under the banners
of the Union in the days that tried
mems souls" Let them go from Hood
River in the firm belief that our cit.
izens can surpass all Others in the state
in dispensing hospitality and exhibit.

Hood River, Jan. 22.-Editor Glacier:
My family having been favored with

the past two weeks, but despite the
statements OF the doctors that it was

the doctors as a lot of knaves who were
trying to create a smallpox scare for

The total taxable property of Wasco

mills will provide a revenue OF $l25, ,3O1.
OF this amount, according to figures fur

to the state, $3O,O36 to the public school

for county purposes, if the entire tax il

OF the county are about $4,000, hence,
if all the taxes are. collected and no un.

remain a balance of about $17 900 to go
toward reducing the county debt.

Elsewhere in this issue is a call for
base ball men to meet Friday night at
Prather's Office for purpose Of devising
ways and means to raise funds for get.

grounds. 1t is likely a stock company
will be organized. The move is time

admission fee could be collected from
the hundreds who attended the games
last summer without tickets. They
would>all want to see the game and
would pay their 25 cents, too. By all

Chris Dethman wished the Glacier to
state that the money expended on the
East Side grade was done under the su.
pervision of the county court and not by
the road committee. This piece Of work
was a costly experiment in road making,
but is an object lesson in proving that
clay piled on rocks makes a very poor
road bed. To get good roads they mus,
be macadamized, and as the Odell cor.
respondent said last week, the only way
to get good roads is to make them.

In another column, r. +. HARRISON
furnishes a splendid article on the eff.
fectiveness of vaccination as a smallpox
preventive. Mr. HARRISON wants a
law compelling vaccination OF school
children. There is such a statute, but
school boards find it impossible to en-
force the regulation because of the OBJ.
jections of parents. Medical scen, g
strongly recommends vaccination, and
it is hoped it will grow more and more
in popular favor.
