HOOD RIVER
SHOWS CHICAGO
FINE APPLES AT BIG LAND SHOW
Joe Wilson Is Target for Artist and He
Tells Them How Il Ia Done
IN Hood River.

The carload OF prize apples which
were sent back to the Land IL lrriga-
tion exposition in Chicago are big
advertisement tor the Hood River val
ley and the visitors to the great land
show are greatly astonished at the
apples according to all reports. lbe
Chicago Tribune, the big newspaper,
which Is boosting and backing the
land show, has had great deal Of Ia.
vorable comment concerning the Hood
River display. 1t seems that as many
OF the displays are from the big irri-
CATION projects, Hood River has been
confused with them now and then as
being district wholly dependent on
irrigation.
Joseph A. Wilson, who with Samuel
q. Campbell, Is looking after the
Hood River display, was the subject
tor a cartoon by one OF the Tribune
artists. The picture did not resemble
Joe as he looks In Hood River, but he
may have changed lot since he hit
the windy city. Ihe big 81 ounce
Wolf River apple which was sent from
here seems to be the big wonder of
the exhibit. The TIibune says:
j. a. Wilson, In charge OF the Hood
River valley display of apples on the
second floor of the Coliseum annex,
showed admiring visitors the thirty.
seven ounce apple-the biggest In the
show--which had just arrived.
That's the fellow, said Mr.. viii.
son, pointing TO the huge fruit. at
is of the Wolf River variety, a sort of
apple sometimes asked for in New
York fol the purpose of serving sal
ads.
"lt is odd how different people ia
vor different oolors OF apples. Take
an Englishman, for instance. He
thinks the only apple worthy the
name must be of yellow color. He
does not object to touch OF led, but
the yellower the apple the better.
He wont bite into red one. Con-
sequently, red apples are not exported
to England.
''The Frenohman wants russet
apple. In New York they like red
ones. Chicago takes both yellow and
red apples.
One of the Chicago scribes was evil
IDENTIFY little bewildered by the great
walls OF apples, since in the following
he had the Hood River valley located
In Idaho:
The apple exhibit from the Hood
River irrigation district In Idaho
draws many to the second floor OF the
Coliseum annex. Apples Of every
kind, shape, and hue, inolnaing one
prize specimen weighing thirty seven
and one hale ounces, make an attract
i've exhibit.
"Fruit raising is no longer con-
Quoted on the guess method, said
Que OF the:ex hibitors. Scientific ap-
pie raising has been systematlzed.
With the ability to regulate the
amount Of water the trees get the
pruning, spraying, and, above all, the
Improvement IN the manner of pack
ing and shipping apples, the entire
fruit industry has been revolution
ized. We almost are able to grow ap-
ples to order aud can contract to turn
out almost any amount of any variety
wanted. -"

COUNCIL CONSIDERS
new BOND ORDINANCE

At an adjourned session Monday
evening, the city council considered
and passed the first reading OF an
ordinance for the issuance OF the
$50, 600 in water bones for the con.
struotion OF municipal water plant.
A week Eefore, similar ordnance
had been passed and this new one
which embodies practically the same
provisions will take its place. A
resolution was passed instructing the
printing committee to confer With
City Attorney Derby with regard to
getting out a booklet containing an
abstract OF all the proceedings upon
which the bond issue is passed. 1t Is
the idea to send this abstract to all
houses, which wish to bid on the
bonds, so that they may become fam
iliar with the circumstances OF the
issue without the expense OF sending
an attorney here TO investigate and
they can therefore afford to pay q
higher premium for the bonds
Recorder Langille was INSTRUCTED

struction of cement sidewalks en-

Returns to Tallahassee and Gives
Out Interesting Interview.
PLATFORM DEFEATED PARTY
Democrats Made Mistals BY Prescribing
Methods---They Should Only Promise
Like the Republicans.

Tallahassee, Fla. Governor Gil
christ returned nome from q tour OF
the northwest In an interview he
stated that the democratic party made
a great mistake in the last campaign
by prescribing methods or detailing
the platform which alienated thou
sands OF votes, and thus. so he believ-
cd, caused it's defeat. He said:
Il am interested in helping 10 get
the democratic party ready for the
next presidential election. / want
them TO begin now TO formulate the
platform that will carry the party TO
victory. They should not put forth
a platform that will ALLEVIATE thou
sands and thousands of voters by pre-
sclibing methods. ! would have them
cling TO democratic principles and
would reform abuses by wealth and
corporations, but would not pre-
scribe methods.
I'VE should begin the fight for our
next national election now and stick
TO II. | intend TO fight the hardest
for the democratic party for the next
four years / ever did, and | believe
that If all true, loyal democrats would
begin now and keep the fight up we
would win out. The republicans have
been winning all along because they
ALLEVIATE as few votes as possible,
promise only in general terms and
leave the methods TO be worked out
after they get In, while the democrats
tell exactly what they will do, define
each plank with all OF it's details, thus
each detail alienates a certain class
or clique, which gets out and fights
the whole platform because Of one OBJ.
jcctionable plank, which, of course,
means defeat.
I'VE should learn a lesson from our
opponents success, but fight with true
democratic principles and ! believe
that our party will land a victory"
