$500 VERDICT
FOR MRS. OILER
JURY THINKSDEpOTNTE RORTHlT
Many Witnesses Testify and Much In.
terest Shown In the Case-R.
r. Company May Appeal

The last case to occupy the atten-
tion of the circuit court at its No.
vember session was that Of the Mount
Hood Railroad Company Va. Matte
A. Oiler, which was called "Wednesday
morning.
The case has attracted a good deal
of attention in town on account of its
local interest, and is an action
brought by the Mount Hood Railroad
company to condemn piece of land
situated at the foot of Front Street
along the line of the new railroad.
lhe land in question belongs to Mrs.
M. A. Oiler, aud is part of the prom.
erty of her original homestead. The
railroad company wants to build a
depot this point, but are unwilling
to pay the price which Mrs Oiler dc.
mands for it. The amount of tie
land involved is seven.tenths of an
acre. Mrs. Oiler wanted 5000 for
the property and the railroad com.
pany was only willing to give $500.
A jury composed of Joseph Means,
J. b. Haverly, George W. Otey, W.
Il. Sharp, Oscar Angel, j. O. French,
j. W. Moore, Henry Mahear, j. +.
Bailey, A. II. ellis, @. s. Magee and
v. II. II. Dufur was selected to hear
the case.
In order that the jury might thor
oughly understand the case they came
here Wednesday afternoon accom-
panied by BailiH j. II. Harper and
examined the land, and after having
done so returned in the evening.
The case was continued Thursday
morning and number of witnesses
we're examined for both sides, among
whom were George L. Prather, q.
Culhertson, Chris Dethman, G. ID.
Woodworth, Murray Kay, Leslie
Butler and number of others.
Thursday morning the case was re-
sumed, with Messrs. Bennett q Sin
nott as attorneys for the defendant
and Messrs. Wilson & Huntington for
the plaintiff. Much testimony was
taken and number of witnesses
examined. A good deal of time was
consumed In examining the technical
aspects of the case during which En-
gineer West of the Mount Hood rail-
road and Murray Kay we're on the
stand, and its trial dragged along un-
Gil Friday afternoon whom il was
given to the jury. Eight witnesses
we're examined for the defense and
six for the plaintiff,
The case was not given to the jury
until o'clock. After deliberAting
for two hours the jury returned ver-
dict Of $500 for Mrs. 0iler. It is
understood that the case may be APP
pealed.
A very wide divergence Of opinion
exists in this city as to the value of
this land, aud while there are some
persons who ought to know about
these things who say that the prop
erty is not worth any more than the
railroad company offered for 1t, there
are others who think the verdict is
just one.

John Ball, who was in this country
as early as the year 1882, is said to
have been the first school teacher west

in the vicinity of the red village Of
Champoeg. In the fall Of that year
he started on trip to his eastern
home which consumed twelve months.
Becoming restless he again started

A. |. MASON'S PLAN
FOR BETTER ROADS

A. |. Mason stepped into the Glacier
office Monday with blood In his eye.
He had just driven up from the freight
station with load OF tile, many OF
which had been broken ccIing over
the bad road leading from that place
up to town. The editor was about TO
take to the tall timber when Mr.. Ma.
son calculated:
'Say, have just driven over the
worst bit of road in Wasco county.
The road from here down to that
freight station would be disgrace In
a Missouri swamp. have 800 worth
OF tile to haul from there, and IL |
don't have any better luck with the
rest of 1t than | did with this load
half of it will be broken before can
get it away from there. The residents
Of the east side have spent thousands
of dollars to make good road into
this town and yet when we get here
this is the kind of proposition we
are up against. | know they say that
the railroad owns the land this
road is on, but if it does, why don't
the city council petition them to fix
it up, and II the railroad company
won't do it, then council ought to
make new road to the freight sta
tion. The next time | come to town
| am going to drive around and get
the members of the city council and
the mayor and give them ride over
this piece of ROAD, and when | do /
won't drive very slow, either. An
other bad piece of road is over by
Rocky Point and il they live through
this first experience | will take them
over there and finish them. +"
The road in question is in a very
bad condition and the attention of the
Glacier hae been called to this fact
by those who have occasion to travel
over it.

Why then shouldn't the fruit grower
be potected from an infected orchard
which a careless OF shiftless neighbor
has allowed to get into this condition
1t might be good thing to quaran.
tine such places until they have been
rid of insects the same as they do
with contagious diseases. The state.
ment that IL Is impossible to keep
codling moth out of an orchard is
wrong. 1t can be done and is done
right here in the valley. As far as
the sale of wormy apples is concerned
1t doesn't pay to ship them to market
as it costs so cents box to raise them
and the most you can get for them is
30 or 40 cents box in addition to the
fact that they hurt the sale of the
sound fruit. The only place that they
can work no harm is at the cider mill
or the canneries. !"
A. |. Mason the well known rancheI
said: 1.-Two years ago at the conven.
tion of the Northwest Fruit Growers
| read paper in relation to the lepis.
lature enacting laws about this matter
and the only dissenting voice was that
of Mr.. Walden. We should have laws
governing this feature of the apple
growing industry. In the Willamette
Valley they have never exercised the
care that we have here in cultivatino
apples and for that reason the codIipp
moth has obtained very strong foot
hold there. | am In favor of legisla
tion prohibiting growers from putting
diseased fruit on the market, except
at the ciler mill or In canneries." /"
Mr.. Franz, of the Fruit Growers
Union said; There is only one thing
to do with wormy apples. Send them
to the canneries or the cider mill
lt doesn't pay to ship them out OF
town and they only hurt the price OF
sound fruit. This talk about not be.
ing able to keep the worms out of an
orchard Is all rot. You can do it II
you will spray properly aud frequent.
ly." II
Il. q. Church said: ~ am not in
favor of letting down the bars any in
regard to laws already in existance
governing the raising Of apples and in
tact | would like to see them made
little sitter. What can be done has
already been demonstrated by scien.
tiiic cultivation and we do not want
to take any steps backward. II per
sons who are In the fruit raising bust
ness do not want to live up to the best
standards let them get out of the
business. -
Z. II. Sproat, after reading the ar.
5icle said; II think the Gem State
Rural has answered Mr.. Walden's ar
gument pretty fully, and | don't think |
any man who has the good of the ap-
pie raising business at heart can come
10 any other conclusion. The raising
of wcrmy apples can be avoided by |
proper care and il takes that kind OF |
,are to raise apples successfully.
