JOINT CELEBRATION
NEAR WINANS

Definite arrangements have been
made to have a joint Fourth Of July
celebration In the valley this year,
that will include Mt. Hood, the mid
die valley and the city Of Hood River.
The Changers had made arrange
ments some time ago to celebrate, and
thetMt. Hood Artisans had also come
to the same conclusion. Hood River
people want to celebrate at home
rather than go to some other place,
and rather than have a counter attrac-
tion In town, thought 1t advisable to
90 in with the grangers and Mt. Hood
people and have 1t all together. In
this way, by combining funds and
attractions, much better showing
can be made.
The matter of the town celebration
was left to the Commercial Club and
ameeting called for last Thursday
evening, az announced In the Glacier
last week. But a few came out, how
ever, andsdecided to combine issues
President Davidson appointed the fol-
lowing committee to make arrange
ments: z. s. Davidson, V. G. Brock
and Roswell Shelley.
The committee in charge of the
fund collected last year, sl36Iof which
was not used, voted to turn this over
to the Hood River band, for which
they agree sto play all day at the pic
mic, OF. .whereverst they are wanted and
also to erect band stand. The kboys
previously agreed to erect band
stand liz lumber was furnished, and
the amount THAT will be TUNED over
will be sufficient to buy the lumber
after paying them for their services
on the fourth.
The Mt. Hood railroad will run an
excursion on the fourth at a reduced
rate, charging only 90 cents ticket
for the round trip.

Down the River In Canoe.

1t appears that the young men who
started down the river in canoe from
Lewiston about ten days ago bound
for Portland we're not as foolish as
relatives and friends supposed them
to be, though 1t certainly seems a
foolhardy undertaking.
While the people of Lewiston we're
much concerned as to their safety, the
young men we're having fine trip,
picking up their canoe when they
struck a dangerous place in the
river, aud Floating with the tide"

the trip they we're compelled to lay
over for two days ON account Of the
bad weather, but when they reached
The Dalles Monday they hal been but
a week ON their novel trip. Yester-
day morning they again put out on
the Columbia, expecting to reach
Portland today.
The names of the yonng men, as they
appear ON the Umatilla House register,
are Frank knight aud Walter Wells. -

IMPORTANT TO
FRUIT GROWERS

A case IL to be brought before the
Circuit Court at Oregon City to test
the law which empowers fruit in
spector to enter a pest infested or
chard after duly notified, failed to
spray his trees. A Milwaukee or
chard was entered under these con-
ditions several weeks ago and "a
prune trees infected with scale we're
cut down. The irate owner promised
to make the inspector pay for the
damage inflicted, and, In pursuance
of this purpose, has brought suit tor
the sum of S204r, the alleged values
of the Il ees thus destroyed.
The question of clean orchards and
perfect mutt IN this state is involved
In the outcome Of this suit. That the
owners of richards will not, in many
cases, without compulsion, spray
their fruit trees and destroy those
that are moss, dirty and useless, is a
fact we'll attested by the infested fruit
that has appeared In this market in
years past and by the moss grown,
pest ridden trees that abound through
out the willamette Valley. The or
chardist who sprays his trees finds his
crop at the mercy of his neighbor who
nelects to do so, 1t is manlfestly i'm
possible to reestablish and maintain
the reputation of Oregon fruit accord
ing to the required market standard,
unless these old orchards are de-
stroyed and the new ones are sprayed
at proper times. The thrifty citizen
finds spraying his own orchards un-
availing while the trees Of his neigh
Dor across the way are white with
woody aphis, mottled with San Jose
scale, OF a breeding place for the cod
lin moth.
This statement carries its own evil
dence and argument. 1t follows that
Oregon must either abandon its pre-
tentions as state able to raise fruit
as fine as any in the world or take
measures to compel indolent thriftless
orchardists to come up to the standard
set by the Board of Horticulture
fro the production of clean fruit

figures are borne out by the harvests.

at least. has already been harvested.
the yields Will be the greatest in the
history of the nation. The farmers
have every reason to feel cheerful over
the outlook If they get only 90 cents

them will get a good deal more than
that. they will receive 1886. $4,000 for
that crop alone. If they receive only
20 cents a bushel for their corn, GER
tainly a low estimate, the corn will
yield them s542, 63s.SOO.

FORCING JUDGES INTO POLITICS.

In the controversy between Judge
McCarty and Senator Sutherland the
public is furnished an interesting side
light on the political situation existing
In the Republican party Apart from
the peculiar conditions which could
draw a justice of the supreme court
into an open discussion of this sort
the letters published afford proof that
the Republican party under the domi-
nation of the machine has stopped at
nothing which could serve TO .perpetu-
ate its control of the party and state.
Even in the worst states, politically
speaking, politicians hesitate to in
volve the Judiciary in partisan affairs.
much less to identify judges with one
faction of one party. And i'm the most
depraved machines there has always
been some regard for the purity of the
ermine and the protection Gifts reputa-
ton. Here, II seems from the CORE
spondence published, the machine man
ayers have called upon judges of the
courts to assist I'm the manipulation of
party politics; and il is fair 70 infer
Judge who hesitates TO identify himself
with the machine subjects himself TO
imputations of prejudice and worse
which are little short of criminal libel
II goes without saying that no one
who knows him will suspect Judge Nc
Carly of unfairness in his court rulings.
The bitterest partisan would not accuse
him OF lacking in the qualities that go
TO make the upright Judge, and for that
reason his appearance I'm print is open
to criticism as lacking the dignity
which should attach to a position on
the supreme bench. His honor needs
no defense, and he might properly have
left it to his friends to take care of
the men who had attacked him. How
ever, his provOcatiOn was extreme and
it is not 10 be wondered at that he for
got the Judge I'm his human indigna-
ton at what was plainly an injustice
to the man.
The moral of the situation as 1t af-
fects Utah is that a machine which can
drag courts and judges into the mean
est kind of partisan politics has no
excuse for being and deserves to be
wrecked as soon as possible From it's
inception it has done unlimited harm
and achieved no good thing. 1t has
involved the state in broils which are
a disgrace at home and damaging
abroad. 1t should be wiped out and in
its place should be instituted a system
in which the people will rule for them
selves and relegate the machine politi-
clans to the political scrap-heap where
they belong.

roNsIDERATE CoNsPIRAToRs.

There is touch of CHASTITY humor in
the report from Los Angeles that Mrs.
Scheck did not want her accomplice,
Stackpole, to kill her husband while
Scheck was sick. In q letter placed In
evidence, Mrs. Scheck wrote to Stack
pole Joel is sick now and feel sorry
for him. I wouldn't want you to do
anything TO him now" Curious are
the workings OF the criminal mind.
Mrs. Scheck probably figured that 1t
would hurt Scheck more to be killed
while he was sick than If he were sound
and we'll
There was no thought in either her
mind or Stackpoles of giving the vic
tim a chance for his life. We can I'M
derstand how a generous adversary
would insist upon waiting until his OPP
ponent was physically fit before engag-
ing In a contest with him. But no
such idea is here Scheck was to be
murdered deliberately and in cold
blood. AS a matter of fact, after he
recovered from his illness, he was so
murdered. Mrs. Scheck admitted
Stackpole to the house in the early
hours of the morning and Scheck was
slain while he slept.
The next day II was given out that
Scheck had been killed by a burglar,
but the police suspected Mrs. Scheck
and she was finally compelled to make
a confession. So the man had abso-
lutely no chance for his life. Still his
wife couldn't bring herself to consent
TO his murder while he was sick. The
case is on d par with that OF the old
woman who warmed the water in
which she drowned some superhnnDs
kittens. This she did on the theory
that il would hurt the kittens less to
be drowned I'm warm water. The kit
tens have not offered any testimony on
this point. Neither will we ever know
whether Scheck liked it better to be
killed in good physical condition. New
ertheless, Mrs. Scheck must be given
credit for her humane instinct 1t de-
veloped where it was least expected.
This Stackpole. by the way, as The
Herald has heretofore related. has a
Utah record. He was confined for a
time in the Utah penitentiary. After
serving a part of his tern-he was sent
to prison for robbery-he acquired an
excess of religious zeal. 1t was noised
about that he had decided to reform
and live a pure and upright life
throughout the balance of his days.

great length of time when he engaged

end his life on the gallows, for the re-

the prosecution has a perfect case
against him.
