Mr.. Larsen is perhaps the youngest
hotel proprietor in the Northwest, and
deservedly popular. He received many
gifts on his birthday from friends and
associates, who wish him many more

The Mt. Hood railroads s north bound
passenger train which left here last
Sunday morning came near to having
a serious wrebk about one and a half
miles south of Dee. During the severe
snow storm Saturday night tree was
blown across the track. The engineer
seeing the obstruction brought the
train tat standstill. The train crew
soon cleared the track. After the
tree had been rolled from the track, it
was discovered about six feet of one of
the rails was missing. 1t was found
thirty or forty feet down the embank-
ment. A new rail was put in place
in very short time and the train pro-
ceded on its journey to the delight of
the passengers as well as the train
men.

BUYS RACE HORSES
AND FLYING MACHINE

Word has been received here from
Capt. McCan, who is spending several
weeks in the east, that he has pur-
chased some fancy racing horses in
cluding the famous "Bondsman," pay
ing $l1 900 for the latter, and also a
Farman Biplane. He intends to make
landing place on his ranch near
town for the flying machine, and will
be the first in Hood.River to indulge in
that kind OF sport. Mr.. McCan is an
enthusiastic sportsman. The bringing
to Hood River of fine blooded stock
may induce the building of good race
track and fair grounds, which he has
had under consideration, it is said,
which would be of benefit to the town
for races, a good fair and a place for
ball games and other out door sports.

Riverside Farmers Club.

The Riverside Farmers club was
very pleasantly entertained, Thurs
day, February 10, at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Bilhimer and
daughter, Miss Florence. The time
before dinner was taken up socially.
At IL o'clock, our hostess announced
dinner, which is no small part of
these club meetings. Mrs. Bilhimel
proved no exception to the rule that
the club always has a bountiful din
ner.
The meeting was called to order
by President George Detwiler, at
1880. All Joined in singing, "My
Old Kentucky Home" Devotional
exercises were conducted by Rev. Mr..
Somers of the Asbury M. E. church
of Owosso. The minutes of the last
meeting were read and approved.
The report of the committee ap-
pointed to investigate the purchas-
ing of silver for the club, was ac-
copied and a motion made that they
purchase six dozen each of knives,
forks and spoons. Motion carried.
The names of Mr.. and T. Wallace
were presented for membership.
They received the unanimous vote
of the club. Penny collection
amounting to 81 cents was taken.
The program was then taken up.
The first question assigned Mr..
Kentfield. Would it pay the dairy
farmer to feed his cows so as to milk
them three times day? Mr.. Kent
field said he had not been able to
learn much about the method Of
feeding three times day. He
thought perhaps they would give
more milk but whether they would
give enough more to pay for the ex.
ira labor and feed was question.
He was not prepared to answer. AS
he had never tried or seen 1t tried
out.
Mrs. Henspeter told of a cousin
whose cattle were fed in this way

Under the old conditions the drunk
en- man was frequently seen upon the
streets and he was seldom prosecuted
except as he gave free expression to
the devil within by public fighting and
cursing. The officer considered his
duty fully performed when he had
loaded him into his rig and sent MN
home to his waiting wife and chill
dren; or, if he lived in town, had him
safely slowed away in some basement
or alley. Since local option took ef-
feet conditions have been different.
No rabbit ever scurried for cover be-
fore the hound with greater deter
mination to get there first than is
shown by the citizen who has been
carrying too great load, in his efforts
to avoid Judge Padgham and jail
sentence. The same thing is true of
the liquor business. In the old days
the number of prosecutions OF the
saloons for violations of the liquor
law were limited only by the desire
and activity of the officers. Today
Allegan county is practically dry, and
the men who attempt to make money
by the selling of liquor are indeed few
in number or wholly lacking. The
prosecuting attorneys semi-annual re-
port, given in last weeks issue of the
Gazette, is full of information and
suggestion, not only to the man who
looks upon the liquor question as
moral one, but also to the one who
regards that question from the bust
ness and financial standpoint. When
the past six months are compared
with the corresponding period of the
previous year it is at once apparent
that local option has an immediate
and lettering influence upon crime.
When local option will, in six months,
cut down the total number of crimes
more than a third, and cut out over
half of those crimes which ordinarily
have their inception in liquor, there
is no need for further argument 70
the man who has the true welfare OF
his fellow-man at heart. Nor can the
business man who looks only upon
the dollar as a guide for the casting of
his ballot longer ignore the facts. The
dropping off in the number of prose-
cutions necessarily means lessening
of the county's expense even to the
extent of the entire amount of the
former liquor tax or even more.-Alle-
gan Gazette.

MR.. FoRpNEY IS RIGHT.

Congressman Fordney is likely to
find large majority of the people OF
the country in agreement with him
on the subject of civil service pen
sions. In very temperate and sensi-
BILE statement, the congressman from
the Eighth voices his opposition to
the latest symptom of paternalism,
and he is certainly right when he de-
clares that the movement to pension
government employees is repugnant TO
republican form of government.
There should be no special privileges
of the kind provided, and II old age
pensions are to be handed out, it
would be better to accept the con-
CHEESEMAN'S views and make them gen.
'efalffath er than conhning them to an
already wellSpaid classa
The congressman finds himself.
somewhat of an insurgent in has
voiced opposition to the ideas OF
President Taft along these lines, with
special regard to proposed legislation
to compel the civil service employe
to be thrifty and to lay aside por-
ton of his income to help swell the
pension fund. Certainly as pointed
out by Mr.. Fordney, such legislation
would compel those who are thrifty
without legislation, and who are saw
ing for themselves, to contribute to a
fund to provide for others who are
careless of their own interests or at
fairs.
It is also everlastingly true that the
civil service employee, with few excep-
tons, gets far more pay than the en-
ploye in private life and consequently
enjoys better opportunity to make
provision for old age. And the adop-
ton of the pension plan for these well
paid servants of the government
would impose further burden upon
the man and toiler who has to hustle
for himself, without the aid of "influ-
ence." Pension funds must in the long
run come out of the pockets of the
whole people, and it is pretty safe
guess that should the recommendation
of President Taft obtain. and the civil
service employee be legislated into set
ting aside part of his income to sup
plement the pension fund, it would
not be long before there would be a
movement to increase salaries all
along the line for those in govern
sion fund. And it is no puzzle to
decide who would have to pay for
that increase.
The old story tells of the man who
when asked what he would choose to
be if the choice were open to him re-
piled that for nice, clean easy job
he would be bishop. But if there is
anything nicer, easier or softer than
a good government job at Washing
ton, with the admirable educational
advantages of the capital, and con
.tingent opportunities thrown i'll, it
would be interesting to know it.
Seven and half hours day, with sal
aries about double those of the citi-
zens engaged in outside callings,
seems on the face of it to be a pretty
good thing, and the pension idea
would better be left alone, as Nj.
Fordney suggests.
And it is always open to the civil
service employee, if dissatisfied, to get
out and make room for the thousands
looking for just such opportunities

for the Farmer" Answer-This is
hard question for one to decide for
another as what is best for one
is not best for another, but that
each should choose for himself that
which pretsined to his or her special
calling.
Rev. Somers gave us an excellent
address on local option. We all are
glad to have him with us again at
some future time.
Orrin Jennings then sang which
was much enjoyed. He kindly re.
sponded to an encore.
Rev. Hanks then gave a nice talk
which everyone enjoyed and felt
better for having heard.
Music by A. nj. Bilhimer much en-
joyed. He also responded to an en-
core. The subject of well prepared
paper by Mrs. Geo. Detwiler was,
what shall We Teach our Daugh-
ters?" Mrs. Detwiler's paper was
simply grand and would have to be
heard to be half appreciated. In con-
clusion Mrs. Detwiler said Let us
teach our daughters then the virtue
to make them a potent influence and
help in the home. Teach them the
wonderful possibilities of the Ameri-
can woman and instill in their hearts
the truth of the old son, There's no
place like home"
Mr.. Shafer read an article on the
boy from the farm. This conclud-
ing the question box was next taken
up and contained the usual amount
of mixed question, chief among them
being the local option question.
Judging from the talks given the
Riverside Farmers Club is nearly
temperance club and may God hast
en- the day when this good old state
will be temperance state.

LOCAL OPTION IN WEXFORD
COUNTY.

The question as to whether or not
the saloons shall return to Wexford
county commencing with the first OF
next May will be one of the interest
ing and important discussion in this
city and county from this time until
the day on which the question will be
decided, Monday, April 4th. From the
period of it's earliest existence until
the first day of May, 1908, Wexford
county was possessed of its full share
of saloons. Since that day there have
been no Saloons in our city or county,
so that the question to be decided 1T
the polls,in April will be one in which
experience rather than theory or as
SUMPTION can be made use of.
In the discussion that preceded the
voting ON that question two years
ago the Cadillac News and Express did
not favor the adoption of local option
FOR our county. At that time there
was but one county in the state that
was possessed of county prohibition.
During 81 veral years preceding the dis
cussion BIZ the question here several
counties jil the state had experiment
ed with The law and had found it not
satisfactory. There were no laws on
the statute books of our state assist
ing its enforcement such as now exist
and aftey one or more years trial
eight or. ten counties in Michigan
had repealed the law. 1t was fur
ther true,two years ago in Wexford
county that there seemed little local
demand for the adoption of local
option and little promise of vigorous,
successful enforcement of the law
should Il be adopted Because of
the previous experience of other
counties in Michigan and because of
the situation that. seemed to exist in
our own City and county, the News and
Express was led to believe that the
postponefnent of the adoption of local
option irs Wexford county would be
best. y
But the postponement was not
made. A majority of the voters of the
county decided to enter at once upon
the experiment of county prohibition.
This experiment is now in progress. 1t
is the opinion of the News and Express
that it has been far more successful
than even the most earnest support
ers of the law had anticipated. With
out protest or delay the thirty-four
saloons of the county closed up their
doors and there has been no open or
public defiance of the verdict of the
voters. There have been stealthy and
secret violations of the law and some
arrests have been made. 1t Isl said
to be true that there have been viola
tons not known to the officers and
that secret violations of the laws have
continued to exist, but so far as the
enforcement of the local option law in
Wexford county is concerned, it has
been surprisingly effective and has
caused change of opinion as to its
desirability by very many who did not
expect through it the results that
have been obtained. 1t is because of
these results that the News and Ex-
press believes that county prohibition
has been successful and should be |
