OBITUARY.
John Fowler Helme.

The news OF the death of MIR
lIelme, who died on the 10 inst, came
as a shock to the citizens of Hood
River. He had been seen on cul
streets few days previous apparently
enjoying his usual health. We learn,
however. that he has been failing IN
health for several months past.
The reaper of death came with his
summons Wednesday forenoon and
the sojournel bade the scenes Of this
world his last adieu Surrounded by
his family and number of his friends
he passed away in the quietude of the
solemn hour.
Mr.. Helme was born in Rockford,
ILL.,, February l8, 1858, and died al
his home in the Barrett district
Wednesday the 10th, aged 40 yeaib b,
four months and % days. The earlier
part of his life was spent In his home
city. He went to Chicago at the age
of 18, and was married to Rowena IL.
Hudson June Is, 1881. He moved tC
st. Joseph, where he remained for q
few years, returning to Chicago IN
1885. In 1902 he moved to Colorado
Springs, where he resided for about
one year.
Several months were spent in trav.
cling through California, Washington
and Oregon finally he came to Hood
River in September, 1904, aud pur'
chased farm in the Barrett district,
upon which he resided until the time
OF his death.
Mr.. Helme was city salesman fol-
the large paint house OF Heath Il Mil
ligan, of Chicago, for the period Of II
years. He was considered one OF the
most successful salesmen of the house.
His influence as a citizen, while be
resided in the Barrett district, wat
always for progress and develop
ment. He was appointed as one Of
the directors Of the Bonded District
Irrigating company at the last session
OF the county court, but he never
lived to secure his commission.
The immediate cause OF his deatt
was rupture of the heart. The funer-
al services we're conducted from hii
late residence. Rev W. A. Elkins

Farewell, dear Croft, till we shall meet
again.
The pi aspect of getting the electric
light in the Rockford Is assured to
us now, as we have enough signed
contrscts to take the light. In q very
short time the poles will be raised
and wires strung, and by the time we
need more light We shall be enabled
to touch the button and the light will
shine.
Willie Gibbons has been quite busy
with the moving machine cutting the
grass, clover end oats 30 as to make
hay.
DIR. b. E. Wright has the stone
foundation built for a large apple
house and the carpenters are on the
ground to carve up the lumber and
put 1t In shape. We suppose that the
doctor will have a very nice apple
house when completed. 1t Is the doc
ior's intention to put up nice dwell
ing house with electric light In every
room, cellar and lawn. Pretty soon
Barrett will be the most desirable dis
trict to live in.
j. j. Gibbons and wife are getting
things in pretty nice shape. CaI pets
and floor oil cloths are spread IN ev-
cry room and several loads of costly
furniture have been put in and every
thing looks snug aud cosy, just as 1t
should. j. j. did not forget to pre-
sent the wife with grand new rubber
tired buggy OF the latest style and up
to date in every respect, and now we
wish them very pleasant journey
through life, and then happy gu
trance into the next world when this
life's journey is ended.

Mr.. Bateham Is an enthusiastic be-
lever In the Lambert for sale fresh
and for canning. He Is confident
that when 1t IL raised in large enough
quantities to permit its being intro
dueed as canned fruit that 1t will
command the highest prices paid fol
canned cherries. When he was con

was beautiful. The samples was

NOTICE.

Every one owning land under the
East Fork llrigating company's ditch
take notice.
The company has re-organized and
is now on q mutual plan. They are
selling capital stock at the par value
of one hundred dollars per share.
Each share Of stock carries perpet-
ual water right for three inches of
water, provided stock is purchased on
or before August lst, 1907. After An.
gust 1st until January lst, 1908, all
stock purchased will carry perpetual
water right for two inches of water
for each share OF stock. So don't
make a mistake by letting August lst
pass without a water right. At least
don't blame the company for not sd
vising you OF the advance on that
date. We figure that the company will
practically be made up by August lst,
and some will let the date pass and
depend on buying their irrigating
water. And no doubt the company
will serve them as best they can from
the individual stockholders surplus.
AS some have anticipated their wants
and bought more water than they can
use just now, so the company win try
to take care of this surplus by selling
to any applicant each year. But we
believe 1t will only be short time
until all stockholders will use all ws.er
they have contracted for and the man
who buys from year to year will have
no assurance whatever.
The sale Of the capital stoch IL un
der the control of the hoard of direc-
tors and limited to Eve hundred

stockholders to stop sale Of stock at
any time they deem expedient to the
