HOOD RIVERITES SPEND
QUIET LABOR DAY

Labor Day was spent quietly in Hood
River. A great number of people ac-
companied the band snd the members
of the Fire Department to The Dalles.
The day was characterized by the
heavy rain, the first for the season,
which brought JOY to the hearts of
those who make frequent trips into the
Valley for the shower laid the dust Of
the roads and freshened the foliage of
the wayside orchards.
A bit of excitement was offered on
the arrival of the morning local from
Portland, when a Swede. who refused
to give his name, returning from the
Underwood ferry landing, ran amuck
and made it necessary for Marshal
Lewis to take him into town and place
him in the lookup until he sobered.
The Swede used too much liquid re-
freshment in his celebration Of the
day.
A large rat, driven from his quarters
by the water, made diversion for the
crowd Just before noon at the corner of
Cascade avenue and Second street.
The distressed rodent made futile at

MONROE OFFERS
GOOD ATTRACTIONS

1t is the aim of Manager Richards of
the Monroe Opera House to give Hood
River people the strongest and best at
fractions ever brought here. All the
attractions which ne has booked for
the coming season are high class plays.
Commencing with last week "The
Sunnyside of Broadway, which made
its first appearance before a Hood
River audience, was undoubtedly zone
of the best attractions that has ever
visited this city and deserved larger
patronage. 1t was laugh from start
to finish.
October 9Th, "The Flower of the
Ranch" will entertain the people Of
this city with its musical comedy at
the Monroe. 'The Flower of the
Ranch is one of those beautiful, bright
and snappy musical comedies full of
life, not dull line in it. 1t is safe to
say that this attraction will excel
anything heretofore produced in this
city. The stage settings are of the
finest. Clever specialties are intro
duced. The costumes are simply grand
so what more do you want?
Manager Richards should receive the
congratulation Of every loving theatre
goer for being able to have Hood River
placed upon one of the best theatrical
circuits in the Northwest.

Our Insane Anniversary Celebrations.
The plea for a sane observance
of the Fourth of July is now so
strongly enforced by the long
list of terrible accidents that &C.
cur year after year, it is prob
able that we may have State
laws against its old-time danger
GUS celebration. In two years
215 persons have been killed in
the United States, and more than
five thousand blinded, manned
and injured by accidents al
Fourth of July and Christmas
celebrations. This list of killed,
men, women and children. gives
an average of 4 deaths in each
State, and LOG injured by guns
and the explosion of noisy fire
works. That is a terrible price
in human lives to pay for a little
noisy fun. to say nothing of thu
annual destruction of thousands
of dollars worth of property.

B. d. Fletcher for Assessor.

The Chronicle is this week au-
thorized to announce Mr.. B. d.
Fletcher as a candidate for As
SCISSOR of Grant parish, subject
to the Democratic nominating
primary. Mr.. Fletcher is a ma
tive of Grant parish, the son of
Jesse L. Fletcher, and was born
and raised in ward seven, at the
home near where he now lives.
He is "a years of age, attended
the common schools of the coun-
try until nearly grown, and then
attended the Verda high school
for three years. He has been a
school teacher for nine years,
having taught two years in Winn
parish and seven years in Grant.
He married Miss Cora Stevens,
the daughter of Mr.. VIM. Stevens,
and has a very large connection
both in his own and his wife's
family. His attainments and ca
pacity for the Office of assessor
are ample, and if elected he will
make painstaking and efficient
officer. He is pleasant and affa.
BILE in address. and has a large
circle of friends who will give
him their hearty support.

Congress Has Adjourned.

The special session of Congress
which adjourned on Tuesday, Aug
ust %, at 3 p. m, may be said to
have been the most strenuous session
of that body held in many years. 1t
was spectacular and OF grave interest
to all the people from start to finish.
The Democrats have had their first
inning for a score of years, and they
made good use of their time and have
got in good shape to go before the
people in another Presidential cam
paign with every prospect OF naming
the winning candidate. Two new
States have been admitted into the
Union, and from each the Democrats
will have two Senators. This was
done by the elimination of the recall
feature in one of the constitutions,
to meet the Presidents approval.
The bill for reciprocity with Canada
became a law, but three or four 9TH
err measures that should have been
passed were killed by the Presidents
veto. We shall in all probability
take occasion to discuss some of these
measures from the Democratic stand
point at some future date.

things of this kind? If this was

things of this kind? If this was
some poor homesteader. his patent
to the homestead would be can
celed at once. Why not treat the
rich and poor alike, and why not
cancel the entire grant if the lands
excepted from its operation be not
turned loose at once.
This kind of justice to the poor
is what is causing so much unrest,
and if it is continued will cause
an upheaval never before thought
of our country. 1t cannot be de-
MED the settlers have in great
many cases lost their lands through
inaction of the government, and
who can we blame for this? This
forces the people to loose conf
dence in the government and be-
lieve 7 ere is no justice for the
poor.
All the people have contended
for, is a fair trial before the courts.
They are willing to leave the case
to the courts, and want it decided.
1t has waited so long they have
almost lost all hope. Our officials
and newspapers should push this
case to the front and make it an
issue until it has been decided
No fair minded man can object
to this.
The newspaper that refuses to
publish letters from the people OF
this subject will soon be without
a subscriber from the settlers ant
their friends. The time has come
when they must line up on ont
side or the other. There is M
middle ground. and you are TO

An Apology to Mr.. J. S. Miller.

We apologize to Mr.. j. S. Mil
Ter for saying last week that,
Postmaster Miller, of Simms,
accused of robbing the mails,
has been arrested in Shreve-
port" etc. This is an error, as
Mr.. Miller is not now the post
master at Simms, and the rob
berry" spoken of was done by a
a man by the name of G. H.
'Shafer, who was arrested in
Shreveport. An account of the
arrest and subsequent escape, OF
rather turning loose of Shafer by
the Shreveport police, will be
found in another place in this
paper.

Sow More Rape Everywhere.

You can SOW rape most any
time during the summer and get
your moneys worth. 1t is fine
thing to SOW in corn as catch
crop as it grows faster than COW
peas, soy-beans, clover or any of
the catches:
As pasture it is far superior to
cow-peas or soy-beans as it lasts
till nearly Christmas in the South
ern States and in many places all
winter.
The seed is cheap. 1t can be
bought for about five cents q pound
and two pounds will SOW an acre
80 that you can get S. or $40
worth of feed from as many cents
worth of seed.
It is pretty certain to make q
crop, and then if it is pastured
there is no loss of fertility to tie
soil but on the contrary, it is bene-
CITED.
As it grows long after corn and
oats is matured it saves the nitro
gen that would otherwise be vast
ed. There is no extra blowing,
narrowing or harvesting and you
may get a profit of one dollar OF
ten dollars per acre.
