The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1907-04-25
OregOn's "Rig Stick "

Is the subject for an intensely in
teresting and timely article in the
May issue of the Pacific Monthly,
published in Portland, Greg, n inter
estiug to every citizen because 1t tells
Of the use of supreme power by the
people. Timely because 1t offers a
sure aud safe antidote for the poison
and graft of corrupt mat hine politics.
The subject is handled graphically
by Lutte Pea ,e--the we'll known west
ern writer-who gives an extremely
Interesting and authoritative account
of the direct legislation direct nomi
nations movement, and other great
reforms which have placed Oregon In
the forefront of the worlds political
progress 'lt has,been said that every
form OF government except pure de-
moeracy has been weighed and found
wanting. " Oregon has practically be-
come pure democracy. "a peaceful
revolution has been accomplished in
this state "a revolution that bids fair
to spread throughout the union. "
Oklahoma, Dakota, Washington and
vRri GUS other states are borrowing Or
egOn'e idea entire or In part, or are
etriving to secure reforms along simi
lar lines. Various writer's have given
attention to the Oregon movement,
but comparatively few people, other
than is oirginators, seem to have
grasped more than hint of its far
reaching and revolutionary character.
1t has remained for Mr.. Pease, who
has followed the movement from Its

Pently and Interestingly.
Oregon Complacently confronts the
pessimists OF the republic with start
ling statements somewhat as follows:
Ii OuI representatives. do not repre-
,ent us, we have the power to force
them to 10 so.
We can reject any law that We don't
want, or ourselves enact any law that
We do want.
We have knocked out the boss and
the machine
We hove just elected two United
state senator's in 20 minutes without
"boodle or booze or even cigar, I"
aud our legislature has just complet
cd session OF extraordinary activity,
nntainted by any change of coIrup-
tion. "And for such achievement the
state aud the United States at large
may give thanks for the persistence of
small ootreie, once laughed at by
politicians as Pops 'cranks,' and
'visionaries' led by dreamer w.
S. Uren.
1t can truthfully be said that no
sub ,eot of greater interest, of greater
moment to the people of the entire
country, has ever reappeared in our
national press Let us hope that ev-
cry beliver in our national slogan,
"a government of the people and for
thespeople," may read the story of
western freedom and success, and
that it may be the seel which falls,
not ON stony ground but in fallow
fields to sprout and spread through
out our nation

Never in the history of the fruit in

there better prospects for mammoth
yield of fruit at the present time of
the year than now. Many OF the or

favorable seasons, hence the orchards

In recognition of this state of at

state college department OF horicul-
tuIe is issuing a circular to all fruit
growers of both eastern and western
Washington, in which he suggests
ways and means whereby they may
materially increase their furit crops.
Prot. Ihornber says, in part:
VERY heavy pruning at this season
OF the year may be- detrimental to the
crop, since it disturhs the equilibrium
of the tree and tends to produce a

TEA FROM THE FLOWERS.
ThIs Product Little Known In the
United states.

Tea, not from leaves, but from tho
flowers alone Of the plant, is rarely en-
countered in commerce. The petals.
stamens. etc, are sun dried, and the
resulting tea IL OF a rich, deep brown
hue OF peculiarly delicate odor, and
gives a pale amber colored infusion
rather more astrlngent in taste than
that from the average fair grade leaf.
The taste for It is an acquired one.
and even II this tea could be made
commercially possible, Il is doubtful II
II would ever become popular.
The American tea trade could ad.

DoWNP0UR AT SEA GIRT.
Newark Excursionists Drenched and
Sham Battle Drowned Out.

SEA GIRT, July 19.-One of the
heaviest thunder storms that has Wis
tied this section in many years broke
over the State camp about 2 o'clock
yesterday afternoon and put a sudden
end to the proceedings of visitors day.
There was to have been a sham bat
tie yesterday afternoon by the soldiers
of the First Regiment of Newark, under
command of Colonel Freeman, but all
thought of this fled with the down
pour which left the parade grounds
too soft and soggy for military
maneuvers.
Another reason for the discon-
t%inuance of the days program was
that those who had come to
see 1t from Newark and elsewhere
either fed or crawled into the tents
and when they emerged they had no
mind but to go home and into dry
clothing as soon as possible. AS 1t hap
pened this was no easy matter.
