Park Should Have Carried.

Mr., and Mrs. w. O. Ash a
couple OF our good Hood River
friends were in the city last Friday
and made Us very pleasant visit.
MIR. Ash was for a number of
years engaged in merchandising in
Hood River, but sold his interest
in the biggest store in Hood River
the Paris Fair, to his partners, and
has been looking for a nice little
farm where he may settle down
and raise cattle. lie has found
several that looked good to him,
but they were too far from town to
suit Mrs. Ash, He says Mrs. Ash
wants a farm right in town, They
were greatly pleased with ST. Johns
and predict a great future for our
city. Both declared we made a
great mistake in not voting the
park bonds, Hood River, they
say made the same mistake and
now there is no suitable place left
for city park except too far out.
They greatly admired the proposed
park site.

The New Decalogue.

The following new ten COM
mandments comprise a decalogue
our people would do well to COM
NIT to memory as they have that
promulgated by Moses, and If
obeyed as faithfully as we were
taught in our youth to obey the
Hebrew decalogue, would bring to
us, as people, a peace and pros
perity that would surprise the ma
tives.
Thou shalt not go away from
home to do thy shopping, nor thy
wife, nor thy sons, nor thy daugh-
ters, as long as the home merchants
keep thee informed of what they
have to sell.
Thou shalt patronize thine own
merchants; unless they fail to let
you know they are in business by
advertising.
Thou shalt patronize thine own
printer and they shall patronize
thee; the publisher too thou shalt
remember because of the free adver-
tising his paper gives thee and thy
town.
Thou shalt pay thy bills prompt
ly, that thy credit may be good in
the land where thou dwellest, and
thy neighbors greet thee gladly,
then deposit thy surplus in the
home bank, which is the spirit of
patriotic cooperation.
V
Thou shalt not knock the props
from under thine own town in
order to be avenged on thine en-
emy, lest thou perish with him.
VI
Thou shalt not incline thine ear
to the voice of the gossiper nor per.
NIT the knocker to shake thy cour-
age.
VII
Thou shalt spend thy earnings
at home, that they may return
whence they came aud give nour-
ishment TO such as come after thee.
VIII
Thou shalt not bear false witness
against the town wherein thou
dwelles,, but speak well OF II in the
ears Of all men.
Thou shalt not covet thy neigh
bor' house. nor his lot. nor his
seed wheat, nor his meat hog, nor
his COW, nor the corn which is in
his crib, but whatsoever thou dc.
sirest thou shalt buy from him and
thou shalt pay the price thereof in
the coin OF the realm.
Y
Thou shalt keep these command.
ments aud teach them TO thy chill.
dren unto the third and fourth gen.
erations that they may be made to
flourish and wax rich while thou
art laid to rest with thy fathers.

there are a number OF them very
good men, perhaps any of then
would serve the people with credit,
but there is one man who appeals
most strongly to us, Mr.. Ericsson,

Side look in for any of the bus
mess OF the coroner's office. Mr..
Ericsson first promised deputy for
the East Side, Others have toll

such we think him entitled to the
undivided support OF the East Side.

PLAYING WAR MANEUVERs ON A GIGANTIC SCALE

Army maneuvers on a scale never be-
fore attempted in the United States are
being carried out by Maj. Gen. Frederick
d. Grant with the regulars of the De-
partment Of tho East and a large force
OF militia, in the four weeks from May
20 to June 10. and later In the summer.
The operations. says Gen. Grant, will in
clude more men and cover wider territory
than any previous. and. as far as can be.
they will offer a closer approximation Of
actual warfare.
The general outlined his plans at the
annual banquet of the Founders and
Patriots Of America. held recently at
the Hotel Manhattan. New York The
plan Of campaign includes two separate
series OF operations, the first on the
coast the second inland. A series Of
coast defense maneuvers viii be carried
on simultaneously at the various forti-
fications from Baltimore to Boston. After
four weeks OF this coast defense prac-
tice. the commander believes, the troops.
both regulars and National Guard, will
be thoroughly seasoned TO powder, while
the officers will have gained great faml-
iarity with the particular styles Of man
euver involved, and the chiefs In com
mand will have plenty of valuable rec
ords as to the performances Of the troops
and the efficiency OF the individual Of
fcers.
A month or more later viii come the
inland maneuvers. They will begin with
an experiment in concentration. Troops
