Horse and Buggy Disappear.

A horse and buggy belonging to J.
ID. Warren Disappeared from the
corner Of Eugene and Twelfth streets
Sunday evening, and no trace of
them has teen found. Mr.. Warren
had driven In tIom the country and
tied the horse near this corner.
When hs was ready to return home
about eight O'Clock, the rig had dis
appeared. The only olue which be
has been able to get to his property
is that 1t was seen by persons on the
hill near thu ball ground and r be
was dropped out near True's store
The persons who saw the rig cannot
agree whether or not there WAS an
occupant in the buggy. IL is mys.
terry whether the horse was stolen or
whether II got loose and wandered
away. Mr.. Warren has been making
thorough search and has notified
the officers at The Dalles of his loss.
The horse was black and weie ht d
about 1000 pounds.

THREE ROADS PROPOSED.

We print in this issue three articles
each dealing with a road proposed to
be built into Hood River. These
roads would all be Of great benefit to
the Hood River city and country and
each ot them will ultimately be built.
The limited funds which are now ag-
ailable for road building In this
county make 1t necessary fol the
roads to be taken up one at time so
far as the financial aid to be given
by the county 10 concerned. We
believe the present policy OF the
county court to improve the present
roads in the valley with macadam, az
has already been done on part Of
the east side road, Ia wise one.
The Portland automobile roa d
which is being agitated, 10 good
project and would mean much to
Hood River, but at present the
county Is not able to undertake the
heavy financial outlay which would
be required to build 1t. Many ipdi.
viduals have literally subscribed to
fund for this DAD aud 1t 10 to be
hoped they will be able to at least
keep the movement going until
the county or state can finance
road. An erroneous report was pub.
lished In a Portland paper to the
effect that the Hood River county
court had agreed that the county
should pay large part of the cost oi
the road to the Multnomsh line. Ibis
road which will be the natural en-.
trance into Portland from all of east.
ern Oregon, Is one which should be
financed by the state when the time
comes to build it.
Mr.. Friday makes plea for main
highway up the valley and we be.
lieve that water grade road up
Hood River would be great boon to
the farmers of the valley and If built
along proper lines would greatly
decrease the expense OF aIketing
the products of the valley. How
ever, we do not believe that road
via Lost Lake and over the noun
tains to Portland would mean as
much to the Hood River valley az one
built to Portland along the river be-
cause the tendency of tourists com
ing In on that route would be to visit
Mt. Hood and not come down through
the valley. But the road proposed by
Mr.. Friday will mean so much to the
Hood River Wiley as local highway
that 1t shoul d receive attention II ON
the county before the Portland auto
mobile road.
Mosier wants TO be connected with
Hood River and II would mean much,
especially to this city, II direct road
with good grade could be built TO
the little towa on the east. The logi-

ington, with the exception of the
White House and State Department
is filled with gossip of coming chan
ges in the Diplomatic Corps
In both quarters it is said that moth
ing is likely TO be done for some time
yet, except possibly in the case of the
Embassy OF Rome. Gossip connects
the names of ex-Secretary of State
Robert Bacon with this post, as well
as the name of ex-Gov. Curtis Guild
Of Massachusetts
1t is said authOritatiyely that there
will be no general shake-up of the Di-
plomatic Service and that such ap-
pointments as are made probably will
come singly and at considerable inter
walls. As matter of fact there is an
extraordinary small list of applicants
for ambassadorial and ministerial ap-
pontments. The principal work that
has been done has been in behalf of
men already in such Offices, nearly all
of whom would like to retain their
billets.
1t is generally assumed that White
law Reid viii not be continued in
London and the presence in Wash.
ington of Timothy l.. Woodruff, chair
man of the republican state committee
of New York, has led to the coupling
of his name with that of that post.
Ever since Mr. Woodruff got out Of
the senatorial fight in New York to
make way for Mr.. Root, there has
been talk to the effect that he would
be rewarded with a first class diplo-
matte appointment Friends of Dr.
Charles w. Eliot, former president OF
Harvard, are working TO have him
sent to London, and the name of Seth
Low of New York has been also
brought forward.
The only definite offers that have
been made are of the embassy TO Jap
an. which was proposed to former
Secretary of Commerce and Labor Os.
car S. Straus, and a European post
which was offered to former Secretary
of the Navy Newberry. Mr.. Newber-
ry replied that he did not care to en-
ter the diplomatic service, and Mr..
Straus still has his offer under CON
sideration. There is a renewal of the
talk that former Vice President Fair
banks may go to London or some
other European court but not much
stock Is taken in that.

Hon. Norman Mattison of Glasten-

~ court were in town this afternoon
to appoint license commissioners for

frey. The judges told the Banner re-
porter that everybody they had talk
ed with favored the reappointment Of
the old board.
Judges Mattison and Kent have not
yet been to Winhal, which voted H.
cense this year, to appoint license
commissioners but will within few
days. They nave been asked by NJ. J.
Hapgood of Peru for a public hearing
on the question. Mr.. Hapgood lives
in Peru but owns property in Winhall
and aims to look after that town and
Landgrove with the same care and
skill that he applies to Peru.
II seems that Winhall disobeyed his
advice and voted yes and it is reported
that he will object to any license be-
ing granted there.
