NEW SHIPPING co.
WILL BE FORMED

1t was learned yesterday that a new
shipping and sales agency for the val
ley fruit would be formed here. In an
interview G. II. Sproat gave out the
information that several of the larg
est apple growers of the Valley have
arranged to finance the building of a
chemical cold storage plant on the
tracks Of the Mt Hood X. X. IN the
city limits :just west of the steel
bridge.
1--WE have also secured trackage fa-
ciilties at Van Horn and Odell, said
Mr.. Sproat, "where subloading sta
tions will be constructed. "
The men, who will form the new or
ganization, il was declared, feel that
co operation as business proposition
is a failure and subject to too violent
changes to build up permanent bust
ness. MIR. Sproat will have charge of
the management of the new concern.

THE UNION ELECTION

The Apple Growers Union eleefyn
Of directors is over. The dissatfs
faction that prevailed was evidenced
by the overwhelming victory for the
Progressives. as that part of the valley
growers was termed who sought the
election Of new board. In the heat
of the meeting, when leaders of the
two elements advanced arguments,
personal feeling perhaps ran too high.
but this is a trait Of human nature, and
often hard to eliminate in mems rela-
tions with each other. Whatever bit
terness was aroused at the meeting
should be laid aside, even though not
forgotten, and all work together for
the interest of the valley.
The Glacier believes in frank state
ments and is free to state that il hoped
to see the retention of the old board
policies; for it believed that they
would be best during the coming season
with the enormous crop to be handled.
The old board was defeated and the
fight against the new board then
ended.
Every effort should be extended now
toward making the new management
successful. The men, who were
elected on the new Directorate, are
sincere in exerting their efforts for the
benefit of the valley as a whole. A
great deal depends on the success of
the Union. The name is broadly
known throughout the world. The
success Of handling apples by private
concerns will not mean as much to the
valley because of this past reputation.
The name Of the institution has been
a drawing card for the community, and
its success or failure will have good
or bad effect upon business relations.
The announcement to the effect that
a number of the valleys growers will
establish a separate private selling
organization may bring on their heads
severe criticism. The statement
may be made that they should have
continued their alliance with the
Union. However, such state of
affairs might have been seen brewing
before the election. Other growers
would in all probability have estab-
lished a similar organization, should
the election have gone the other way.
In fact a point had been reached where
a portion of one of the elements of the
organization would withdraw and form
a separate sales institution, depending
on the success of the other at the
election.
Such are the facts as they seem to
us. The problem now is to form the
most harmonious relation between the
Union and the independent agencies of
the valley

BRAGG PURCHASES
WRIGHT'S INTEREST

Il. b. Bragg, who the latter part of
last year bought an interest in the
planning mill and furniture business
of j. M. Wright q Co., has closed
deal, whereby he has acquired all of
Mr.. Wright's interest. Mr.. Wright has
decided to devote his entire time to the
contracting and building business, hav-
ing opened an Office with Bartlett &
Morse in the Ileilhronner building.
Mr., Bragg, who states that his bust
ness is increasing, will continue to op
crate the business along lines similar
to those of the old management. The
company manufactures all kinds of
building material, the finer finished in
terror material, sashes and doors. One
of its specialties is the making of mis-
sion furniture

COUNCIL INCREASES
TREASURER'S SALARY

At the Monday night meeting of the
city council, the salary of the city
treasurer, l.. A. Henderson, was in
creased from merely nominal fee Of
S25 per year to $40 per month. The
work of the office has increased to a
great magnitude since the old salary
was established.
The council has under consideration
a suggestion to change the charter in
such manner as to limit the maximum
indebtedness of the city from SIS. 900 to
$50, 600, making it possible to thus Sc
cure funds for the laying of water
mains in the city limits and the pay
ment of the purchase price of the
water system acquired from the Pa
cifc Power x Light Co. In case this
is done the street improvements could
be accomplished this summer.

the business demands them.

Best of All


BY j. II. Cradlebaugh, in Mt. Angel
Magazine.
MIR. Cradlebaugh was editor of the
Glacier a number of years ago.
1t may be true that Switzerland
Has scenery to delight the soul;
The Alps undoubtedly are grand,
And blue the Danube's waters roll,
And all the elves of Sunland dance
Upon the vine-clad hills Of France.
1t may be true that Far Cathay.
The dreamland of the Orient,
Has flowers that beautify the day
Ana make night sweetly reoulent--
Has roses in perennial bloom
Sleep-giving in their sweet perfume.
1t may he true the "Mlddle West"
Has prairies graudest in their sweep
The South by Summer Snow fields "
Blest, the lotus-eating land of Sleep.
And the wild sweep of deserts be
Inspiring in their majesty
All may be true but give to me
The Cascades uudulating lines;
The valleys glade and glen and lea,
The foothills robed in verdant pines,
Land fairest that the sun shines on.
Take all But leave me OREGON.
