swordsmanship Aaalnst a rioer

Sir James Ouram, known as the
Bayard of India, was a mighty hunt
er" and an accomplished swordsman
He once performed the hazardous feat
Of killing tiger with his sword and
from the back Of his horse. General
Nicholson performed similar feat.
He rode round and round the tiger Mt a
gallop, gradually narrowing the circle
until at last he was near enough to de-
liver bis blow He had only the one
blow and If he had failed would have
been slain. The explanation of the feat
Is that the tiger does not spring upon
the horseman during the circllng proc.
ess because he is watching his opportu.
nifty As the circle draws closer and
closer upon him he becomes bewlldered
by the strange maneuver, so unlike
that OF any hunter he has ever encoun
tered.

A CANNERY NEEDED

The proposition of the Hood River
Apple Vinegar Co. to add complete
cannery and evsporating plant to its
vinegar and soda water business, is one
that should receive attention from the
business men and growers of the val
ley. The rapidly increasing area OF
developed lands 10 the valley, with the
resulting increase in fruit and vege-
table products, calls for some means
of taking care of the biproducts and
class of fruit which cannery alone
can handle at profit to the grower.
Aside from the waste resulting from
fruit that is not good enough TO ship
but which can be used by a caDnery,
and which is now largely thrown
away, there is no end to the possibil-
tiles Of other things that could be
raised to supply cannery, without
interfering with the main business Of
raising apples. There are small spots
in many farms that are especially
adapted to raising celery, asparagus,
cucumbers, beans, or other good can
ming vegetables, which could be util-
ized at good profit by the farmer.
Many such bits Of land will yield a
greater profit in ote of these crops
than in apples or berries. This would
be a diversifcation of crops without
hinderance to the main crops Of straw
berries and apples, and would add |
greatly to the prosperity of the valley,
A cannery could also take care Of most
of the Gull and second class fruit which
is now going to waste.
The wonderful growth of the cider
and vinegar business of the company
is but an indication Of big business
that can be developed along the other
lines. When the company first adver I
tised for Gull apples, not many paid
any attention to it, but the amount Of
Gull apples now being brought to the
cider mill Is Indicated by the fact that
the company will shaye an output of
6, 900 barrels of cider and vinegar this :.
year, and are installing a press of
daily capacity of 100 barrels, in addi-
tion TO the 40-barrel press now in use. a.
The reputation of Hood River cider

The calling of primary election for
the city entails an expense for double
set Of election boards that seems to he
unnecessary when the funds Of the city
are needed so much for necessary i'm
provements. The old method of nom.
mating by petition answers every re-
quirement allows every man who is
desirous of serving the city to have a
place on the ballot by very little effort,
shortens the campaign, and it would
seem to us to be the better as it is the
most economical way.

TAFT A BRIBER
RooseveIfs Manager Attacks
President on Texas Fight.

Washington, March %, Senator
Dixon, the Roosevelt manager, prac-
tieally accuses the president of the
United States OF bribery" In the mat
ter Of federal patronage. In a state
ment Dixon again attacks the admins
tration because of Its attitude In the
aexas fght. Senate Dixon refers to
the advertisement to federal Office
holders inserted in the newspapers by
Fl. r. McGregor, the Taft manager in
Texas, and adds:
.This advertisement takes place in
history alongside the notorious Norton
letters. wherein the secretary Of Presi-
dem Taft admitted his use of federal
patronage to force congress to pass the
kind of legislation Mr.. Taft desired
That procedure was a gross violation
OF the spirit of the bribery statute and
certainly was intimidation. That the
president came to recognize the de-
baucher. of government involved in
his action was shown by the promise
also in the Norton letter that he would
abandon the evil practice.
In the use of patronage for legisla-
ton Mr.. Taft perhaps could excuse
himself, but what shadow of excuse
can he make, even to himself. for the
patronage and the coercion of federal
office holders In the attempt to force
bis denomination irrespective of the
wishes of Republican voters? He now
