While returns from the state are
still far from complete, it is esi imat
ed that Hood River County has car
ried by majority of several thous
and, the returns already in heing toe
large in favor "t the measure to tt
aft ected mater eiislly by the late re-
turns. The big vote in favor Of the
bill is no doubt due to the good worl
done by the sOommerciai Club and
individual work by Hood River peo
pie in writingstheir friends thI ough
out the state.
The law goes into effect the frs
of July, and the new officers will ap
pointed by Gov. Cham berlain, II
| hold until the next election.
Ihe result of tue vote on this meas
ure is very gratifying to tie peopl
of the new county, and will offset an.
small dissappointments on the gen
eral election result
The result OF the local option vot
