/ Editor Glacier-As the question of
boat landing is again coming up, !
will briefly state my views on the
question. First, we will look at what
is called the "bar landing" / can
see nothing whatever to recommend
it as landing. In fact there is no
landing there. 1t is as far away as
what is known as the ferry landing,
and would be very costly piece of
road to build and which would have
to be practically rebuilt after every
high water. The idea of an elevated
roadway, to my mind, is simply out
of the question. The enormous ex-
pense of constructing such roadway
and the impossibiIity of building one
that would Withstand the June freshit,
not to menion anything as to what the
U. S. engineers might say about it,
ought to settle it forever. At what is
known as the ferry landing is the only
practical solution of the landing ques-
tion, and few hundred dollars spent
in improving the road and giade at
the river would be all that would be
necessary to give US good and per-
manent landing for at least 10 months
in the year. The O. r. & N. Co. have
made bad job of the roadway under
the east end of the gew bridge, but
which could he Iemedied largely by
cutting away the bill and filing the
hollow beyond the end of the bridge.
AS to the steamboat side of the ques-
tion, will say that there is better
water there than there is at the PIES
ent landing. and just as convenient
and safe. 1t is up to the council to
take action in the matter and the
sooner it is done the sooner we will
have the only practical landing that
Hood River will ever own.
