The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1907-03-14

Nav IL. and the Hood River and Mo-
sier oranges magnarimously request
ed that all delegates be chosen from
oranges in the southern end of the
county which was greatly appreciated
by the county convention and vote
Of thanks was extended to them for
the consideration.
W. II. II. Dufur, deputy state mas
ter for Wasco county, presided at the
meeting Miss Nellie Rogers, of Odell
Grange, acting as secretary.
The following delegates we're chos
en-: A. A. Bonney, master of Tywas-
so Grange, of Tygh; W. Ii. Ii. Dufur
master of Ramsey Park Grange Du-
fur; |. ID. Driver, of Barlow Grange,
! Wamic. The wives Of the various del
epates are also included as delegates
having all the privileges Of such, so
that six Delegates will attend.
The sentiment of the convention
was strongly against the action of the
recent Legislature in creating the new
eleventh judicial district and reso-
luton was passed instr icting the del
egates to the state grange to bring
the matter up and determine what
means can be used to thwart it, and
he idea of invoking the referendum
to that end was suggested. The con-
vention EXPIRE ssed itself as favoring
the idea of making public the busi-
ness of the county transacted at each
term of the countyfcouit.
Among the delegates In attendance
at the convention we're the following
Ramsey Park-W. II. II. Dufur, A.
V. Underwood, j. M. Nolin.

Timber Lands Increase In Value.
Arthur B. Tiff, Portland attoin-

BRIDGE TIPS OVER ON
TEAM AND WAGON
Three Horses Drowned and Men
Have Marrow Escape at
Chapman Creek.

On February 2, James Parks was
hauling load Of hay to his brother s
near Kerby, driving four horses.
Parks was riding a wheel horse and
Dick Sowell and Frank Kelley were
riding on the hay. They drove upon
the Chapman creek bridge, four miles
from Kerby on the Holland road, not
noticing that the center support had
been undermined by the high water.
When the team got about midway the
bridge began to tip 1t leaned up
stream and fell very slowly, so that
the horses and wagon slid off the
bridge into the creek and the bridge
fell upon them drowning two of the
horses and third was hurt in the
fall, 50 it fell helpless and drowned.
The fourth horse escaped unhurt.
Mr.. Parks got one Of his legs hurt in
the mixup, but not seriously and he
was badly shaken up. Sowell and
Kelly escaped without scratch. bat
somewhat scared. Should the bridge
have fallen quickly the chances are
that some of the men would have lost
their lives and it is fortunate for
them that it was not worse.
