NO TOLL ROAD ON
FOREST RESERVE

Hood River Or September 49, 1904
Editor Glacier: A few weeks ago you
printed communication from Sarah
Langille of Cloud Cap Inn relative to
the liberties ofthe citizens of Hood River
treveling over the road leading to the
summit of Mount Hood from the Hood
River side of the mountain.
Our citizens were given to understand
that they must pay toll to travel over
the road to the Inn. Now this attempt
to collect toll has been worked well I(only
at times). 1t is tru' that many thous-
and dollars have been spent in a specu-
lative manner upon the Uuilding of
Cloud Cap Inn and its surroundings for
which every citizen of Hood River feels
grateful TO Messrs. Ladd and others, but
when the scheme failed to pay profits
on the investment it is not our fault.
bought sick horse once but he died
and no one ever contributed a cent to
buy me another. In like manner, if
the building of the Inn and the surround
ing Improvements failed to return profits
anticipated, is it any reason why our
citizens should be held up and made TO
contribute the exorbitant price of $3.50
toll for driving over public road which
our government has guaranteed to al. OF
us the free use?
The following is an exact copy of a
letter received from the office of the
Secretary of the Interior, Washington,
d. C, 1t explains itself:
Department of the Interior, Washing
ton, ID. c., September 6, l904.-Mr-
--: Referring to your letter of
the 18th ultimo, you are advised that
permit has been granted by the depart
ment to Mrs. Sarah Langille to conduct
the Cloud Cap Inn at the terminus of
the Mount Hood stage road, within the
Cascade Range forest reserve, located on
the north slope of Mount Hood one-half
mile from the foot OF Eliot Glacier. The
parmit was granted for period of time
within the discretion OF the Secretary
of the Interior.
With respect to toll roads, none have
been established within thi. forest re-
serve since the date OF its creation, so
far as known to this office, and no oCdgOn
roads are diiOlDed to be constructed
OUer forest reserve lands ercept upon
permits granted By the secretary Of the
interior upon proper application to
him therefor, and upon condition that
tie road shall be open at all times to
the free use Of the public. Very res
pecrfully, J. H FlNKLE,
Acting Commissioner.
In conclusion l desire to say it might
be well if the Hood River Development
league would investigate and ascertain
if our side of the mountain is getting
its share Of patronage in the travel to
its summit, and if not, why not.

TO GATHER FRUIT
FOR WORLDS FAIR

At the recent meeting of the Wasco
county commissioners court the.matter
was discussed of appointing three men
from different parts of the county to
gather and prepare exhibits of the
county's products for display next wear
at the Lewis and Clark exposition.
1t was the intention of the court, saws
Commissioner Hibbard to have one man
named to represent Hood River another
to represent The Dalles and third one
to represent the southern part of the
county.
In this way very good and fair dis
play of Wasco c>unty's varied fruit and
agricultural products can be selected for
the Portland fair.
The matter will be taken up at the
next meeting of the court, and should
the people of the county evince desire
to have the commissioners appoint
men for this work, the court will appro-
pirate what it can to defray the expen-
ses in gathering the exhibits. Some
money will be needed to buy grains and
fruits, and the men who spend their
own time travelling over the country
should have their expenses paid and a
fair salary for their time
The court will be glad to hear express
sions OF opinion from the taxpayers in
regard to this matter.

And. fortunately. just in the nick of time there comes along the road an elderly man who can no doubt throw some light on the problem.
 "oh, yes" he begins, T knew John Thomas ever since he was a boy, ana he wasn't really an old man when he come to die. But, you see, ho got a kinder discouraged. The land was poor and his health was feeble. an his wife died, and SO naturally he got a kinder discouraged and lost his. ambi- tion and let things run down. Didn't seem to have no steady grip on life left in him. Feared like he was tuckered out all the time. If the roof leaked he'd let it leak till the clustering fell off the ceiling. Couldn't rouse him up. When the doctor come to see him in his last sickness, says doctor: My stun won't do you no good if you won't assist it by nature. It's all one and the same to you whether you live or die; you wouldn't toss up 6 copper neither way which. can't ind any thing is the matter with you but that you're just clean discouraged. and the best of doctors stun in the world won't act if you don't give 1t a boost from the inside.'

 Perhaps toward sunset some summer vacation evening one finds himself hanging round an abandoned old farm house in an out the-way corner of New Hampshire. Just the kind of bit a water-color artist would lovingly choose for a subject!' one exclaims Nothing trig. nothing snug, nothing white-paint or Breen-blindy; no dead level commonplace about all this! Heavens! what color in the green mosses carpeting the twisted shingles of the roof and how harmonious the subdued variety of neutral tints in the lichens hattening themselves out over the clapboardsl-the stray tiger lilies meanwhile still Haunting their old, barbaric jungle of tints as points of emphasis!
 That's what houses were built for!' exclaims the enraptured artist
 People have to be born and mar ried and to light the wolf from the door and die in them a hundred years or more. just to get them rickety sagged and mosS-covered enough to be fit to paint! Even Windsor Castle will never take on the pathetic touch of King Lear till 1t falls into hoary ruin as complete as has overtaken KeniI- worth!"

NO WAY TO
 REACH ROGERS Madison Sheriff Cannot Be Impeached. SUPREME COURT ACTS Made an Order Gushing the
 Proceedings. State May Not Remove HuntsvllHe of- aeiaI for His FsiIure to Protect
 Jail Against a

A. D. Rogers will remain as Sheriff of Madison County. There is no way by which he may be removed for his failure to protect Horace Naples from the mob which lynched him on Septem- Der z.
 The information filed in impeach- ment proceedings against Sheriff Rog- CTS by Attorney General Massey VII son In accordance with the written dl- rection of Acting Governor Cunning ham was quashed and stricken from the files by the Supreme Court of Ala bama yesterday.
 Asked if he could employ more ef- fective machinery than the procedure in the Supreme Court to impeach Sher- iR Rogers, the Attorney General told a representative of The Advertiser that he would resort to no other proceed ingG as he regarded it useless under the present Constitution without nec- essary statute giving him specific au- thority to do so.
 Order of the Court.
 ''The motion of the respondent to duash the information and to strike the same from the files is granted: Per Curiam."
 This order was entered by the su- preme Court yesterday after hearing lengthy arguments of Judge Richard W. Walker and R. E. Spragins, for the respondent. and the Attorney Gen. eral for the State, Thursday.
 The Attorney General said yesterday that evidently the court put the gem eral construction on the Constitution of 1901 and the statute that counsel for the respondent did. The motion of Sherin Rogers's counsel was based on the three averments that the Governor was without authority in giving writ ten directions to the Attorney General. the Attorney General did not have au- thority to file the information and the Supreme Court was without authority to try it.
 Neglect of Legislature.
 It is recalled that under the Con- stitution of 1875 the State Senate had Jurisdiction in impeachment proceed ingB against all executive officers of the State. including the Sherifrs. This prerogative of the Senate was taken away by the Constitution of 1901. The present Constitution provides that the Sheriff may be proceeded against In the Supreme Court by written direction of the Governor to the Attorney General under whatever regulations may be provided by the Legislature. The last Legislature failed to make any enact ment. to give the vital spark to this Constitutional provision
 There is statute which gives spe- cihc authority for the impeachment of certain classes of officers, but the sher- ins, originally belonging to this class. were removed from 1t and put in the executive class distinctively. The Attorney General hoped to resist the motion of counsel for Rogers Thurs. day by reconciling, through analogy, the statute and the Constitution. But the order of the Court now makes it necessary for impeachment of the sheriffs. that the Legislature shan make specific enactment to comply with the Constitution
