A Narrow Escape.

Week before last "t'' dropped out of the word Boots" in the advertise ment of the N. c. Co.,, thus making it read "Boos." Now, things have been happening that make mention of "boos" in this neck o' the woods con- trary to the accepted rules of propriety, and the Yukon Valley News has been in fear of a damage suit, or some other proceeding that might cause it trouble and vexation of spirit. Up to the present, however, no process has been served, and it is hoped the danger has passed.

PLACING THE BLAME.

In its issue of March 20, the Fairbanks Alaska Citizen had timely editorial on the treatment of insane patients in the federal jail in it's city. Ten patients, it said, were at that time confined in the jail, and, because the capacity of the prison was taxed to its utmost, most of them were kept in the steel cage intend ed for the housing of desperate criminals. It is pointed out that the prison fare and the association with criminals, the un- wholesome environment and the brood ing it will engender, is calculated to transform those but slightly afflicted in- to incurable maniacs, and one instance is cited where such result has in all pro- ba bilittv followed the things complained of. The criticism of the treatment of the unfortunates is undoubtedly more than justified. The paper speaks of it as an outrage, and right-minded people will accept it as such without question.
 The placing of the blame, however, is another matter, and one that cannot be determined so readily. The Citizen says it does not rest with the marshal's office, but that ''the blame for the present con- dition of the insane patients in the Fair banks federal jail lies with Gov. Clark to large extent.'
 It will strike great many that the in the placing of so many of the patients in the Fairbanks prison at all. Where was the necessity for the long mush over the winter trail from the Idltarod with half dozen patients, to place them in such unfortunate surroundings? It is inconceivable that they were worse off before the removal, and the expense in- cured in making the transfer must have been great. To accomplish the removal, five sleds, 45 dogs, two guards and four drivers were required, besides the dep- uty marshal. When the cost of winter travel is taken into consideration, it is apparent the 6O0-mile trek of such formidable outfit was expensive, to say nothing of the circumstance that the patients will be transported by water back over hundreds of miles of the same long route on the opening of navigation. The patients who were sent to Fair banks from Tanana could have been given better care where they were, and they, too, will have to be brought back when the water runs.
 If Gov. Clark is responsible for the costly, unnecessary and ill-advised con- centration of insane patients in the fed eral jail at Fairbanks, then he is to blame for the cruel injustice that is be- ing done them. Otherwise he is not.
 At the bottom of it all is an infamous graft or a criminal string of official red tape, or both.

STEINHARDT MAKES
FIRST WESTERN BUY

Joseph Steinhardt, of the firm of
prominent New York apple buyers.
Steinhardt q Kelly, who left here
Thursday after having spent the day
before comforting with the Apple
of Hood River fancy Newtowns and
Spitzenburgs. Although the price has
not been made public, it is asserted
that it is entirely satisfactory. Mr..
Steinhardt purchased the entire crop
of extra fancy Newtowns and Spitzen.
burgs of the Mosier Fruit Growers
Union. So far as is known Steinhardt
q Kelly are the first eastern buyers to
come west this season and make actual
purchase of apples {. o. b. II is for
tunate for Hood River to be in touch
with such firm.
The Union has sold its crop of Grav-
ensteins, Badwins, Jonathans and
Blacktwigs. The Kings will most
likely be shipped to a Hamberg firm
in Germany.
Despite the fact that the eastern
market is well stocked with local
product, fancy western fruit will find
a good demand. The eastern fruit is
putd W NC VI All uilShdilJ Booh quality
this season.
Mr.. Steinhardt came here from Port
land. In speaking to representative
of the Oregonian in that city he said:
In the course of my tour found a
very high grade of fruit in the Bitter
Root district, in Montana. and made a
number of purchases. The finest
apples, however, are the Hood River
apples. They bring the highest prices
wherever they are offered. They are
as we'll known in the markets of
London, and of-theseontinent, as they
are in this country. 1t would be inn
pc Ssibe to grow too large crop of
Hood River apples, as indeed. is true
of all Oregon grown apple. The Spitz-
enburg, the NEWFOUNDLAND the Ortley,
ownsthere, | regard as the finest IN
the world.
The New York apple buyer pur-
chased Wealthies, Mcintosh Reds and
Wnesaps in the Bitter Root country.
He also made purchases of Jonathans

CITY RECEIVES
WATER PLANT
BRADSHAW DELIVERS DECREE
Decision Received Yesterday Morning BY
Hansen City Will Assume Immediate
Control Of Plant.

The decree Of Judge Bradshaw in the
care of the eminent domain proceed
lngs instituted by the city against the
Pacific Power q Light Go. in order 70
secure the local water plant of the
company was received by County Clerk
W. f. Hanson yesterday morning. The
decree of Judge Bradshaw gives to the
city the possession of the water plant
but requires the city to pay the
technical costs of the case.
Judge Bradshaw's order reads as
follows: ut IS ordered and adiudged
that the property described in the com
plant be and the same is hereby ap-
propriated to the Plaintiff in absolute
ownership, free from any claim, lien
or encumbrance asserted or claimed
by the defendant or either of them and
that the plaintiff have and take imme-
diate possession of the property rights
and franchise so appropriated to them.
1T is ordered and adjudged that the
defendants recover of and from the
plaintiffs the taxable costs and dis
bursements of the case and that the
defendant have execution thereof. F."
The circuit judge was here last Sat
urday to hear arguments of the attor-
neys for the city and the company over
the alleged insufiicieney of the city
warrants offered in payments for the
plant. The jury fixed the value OF the
plant at $32, AL and city warrants in
that amount were offered to the com
pany. The attorneys for the company
contended that the warrants were not
legal tender because the city will be
unable to make them up until funds
are realized from the bond issue
authorized by vote of the taxpayers.
However, local banks have offered 20
take the warrants and carry them
until the city khas sufficient funds to
take them up. Judge Bradshaw de-
livered bis decree yesterday morning
after having taken the case under adj
visement.
Albert S. Hall, local manager of the
Pacific Power & Light Co., stated yes
terday afternoon that he had been in
communication with the Portland off
GERS of the company, who stated that
they had not up to that time received
any official notice of the decree. Until
such notice was received by them, he
said they would take no action. AS to
whether or not the company would APP
peal from the decree. MIR. Hall said he
had not the least idea. However. he
stated that it would in all probability
endeavor to secure cash instead OF the
warrants proifered by the city.
BY virtue of Judge Bradshaw's de-
cree the water plant Immediately came
into the possession of the city, which
from this time receives the revenue of
the plant.

THURSDAY NIGHTS
COUNCIL MEETING

BY action taken at the Thursday
night meeting of the council Hood
River will have an ideal location for a
public library. The site consists of
plot of ground between Oak and State
streets, which had until Thursday
nights action been a part of Fifth
street. However, no work has ever
been done on this portion of the street,
which is covered with grove of hand
sonmesoaks and the city has in no way
been served by it as a thoroughfare.
The city fathers vacated the property
with respect to its street uses, and the
abutting owners, f. o. Blanchar, E.
L.. Smith and j. Ii. Heilbronner, will
dedicate it for library purposes. Until
the library building is erected the
place will be used for public park.
g. A. Bell asked for permission to
place three steps in the sidewalk in
order to enter the basement of his new
building at the corner of Oak and First
streets. The matter was referred to
the street committee. A communica
tion was referred to Mrs. Myrtle Nor
ris, who is operating boarding house
near the Mt. Hood Hotel asking that
she might be permitted to place steps
on the sidewalk for the purposes enter
ing the building. The communca-
tion's request was refused and the city
marshal was instructed to carry out
ordinances providing for the removal
of stoops. stairways, and permanent
awnings over the sreets.
The Western Union Telegraph Co.
submitted communication with refer
ence to its sign in front of the Third
street office. The recorder was in
structed to notify the company that
the sign protruded over the street and
was unlawful.
The fire and water committee sub
mitted written report relative to fire
escapes. The matter of fire escapes
on buildings is covered by state law
and it was requested that representa-
tions of such be made to officers of the
county to enforce them.
The street committee recommended
that II. F. Davidson be allowed to stop
the construction of the sidewalk at the
end of his proposed new building. in
order to allow more room for the street
between the property and the railroad
right of way, provided he would dedi-
cate the triangular shaped plot at the
north of it for street purposes. The
recommendation was adopted.
The bid of 4. o. Hall on concrete
paving was referred back from the
street committee with the recommen-
dation that it be accepted. The coun-
Gil ordered the contract signed

MASS MEETING TONIGHT THE HIGH SCHOOL CIRCLE
The Proposition to Trade Real Estate
 With the City.

There will be a mass meeting of residents of the Phoenix high school district at the high school building tonight to consider the matter of authorizing the trustees to deed To the city two strips of ground, one on each side of the proposed main build ing of the group of high school build ings in lieu of the vacation by the city of Sixth street between Van Ruren and Polk.
 It is proposed to locate the main building in tn ecenter of the two blocks owned by the high school That will place it directly across Sixth street. The city then proposes to open two thorOughfares, curve shaped, one on each side of the main building the thoroughfores running again into Sixth street at ok and Van Buren.
 There is said to be little objection to this arrangement and none at all except on the part of owners of prop ertv along Sixth stre et beyond Polk. But all of those owners are not ob- iecting for some of them think that the proposed arrangement will in crease the value of the property since the high school would then be one of the show places of the citr to be known sometimes as The High School Circle"
 It is further argued by them that the arrangement would in no degree isolate their property for Sixth street ,t-o,1ld still be open.

WILL GIVE PRESCOTT
 THOROUGH GOING OVER
Superintendent of Health Begins Tour
 of Inspection of Northern Cities.

Dr F.. $. Godfrey, territorial super intendent of health. who has his head quarters in Phoenix expects to leave this evening for Prescott. where he will spend several days in inspecting saai- tary conditions in the mile high city.
 Now only will the sewage system be gone over, but accompanied by the members of the Prescott Board of Health Dr. Godfrey will inspect the dairies, slaughter houses and the water supply system. When asked yesterday if he expected 10 find faulty methods in use to protect the citizens of Pres colt from the dangers of unsanitary conditions, he replied.
 Not any more than in other cities where these problems are encountered. I don't expect to find sanitary slaughter houses. and it is possible that there will be some changes to make in the methods used by the dairymen. There is no greater menace to the health of a city than having an unsanitary slaughter house in the vicinity. There was a good deal of excitement caused q few days ago when a number of dead bodies were uncovered in Agua Prieta. the bodies of revolutioniSts who had been hastily buried after the battle there The people were alarmed over the unsanitary conditions. but to my mind a slaughter house will breed more disease than can be caused by such conditions as are said to prevail in Agua Prieta." After the completion of his work in Prescott pr. Godfrey will visit Jerome. F1a0staff. Winslow, St Johns, and other towns of the terri tory. where he will make similar exam nations.

SHIPMENT OF STEEL
 RECEIVED YESTERDAY
Phoenix Street Railway Company Will Begin Work on Washington
 By July IA.

Within two weeks" said Superinten- dent s. H. Mitchell of the Phoenix Street Railway company last night, "a force of men will be put at work on Washington street tearing up the old tracks of the company, and preparing the grade for the new steel'
 The rapidity with which the Barber Asphalt Paving Comrar' has complet- ed the grading on the streets east of Central avenue makes it necessary for the street railway company to begin work at an earlier date than had been expected. but it will be necessary to start the track men at work within two weeks time in order to have the rails down before the employees of the pay ing company begin to lay the concrete foundation for the bitulithic.
 A large shipment of material for the new line was received yesterday. Frogs, switches, and a large tonnage of steel track formed part of the invoice, and a number of such shipments will be received during the week The frogs and switches received yesterday will be used at Seventh avenue, sixth aven- ue. sixth street. and Seventh street It is planned to lay the new steel which weighs 56 pounds to the foot from Seventh avenue to Seventh street on Washington. large body of men will be needed to do the work. but MT Mitchell believes he will have no diff ficulty in keeping his force up to it's full strength, as there are already a large number of laboring men in the city. and several hundred more will probably come from the coast when word of the building activity in Phoe- nix has been carried to the large cities of southern California
