GENERAL DEVOTES
LIFE TO SCOUT WORK

General Sir Robert Baden Powell,
who has won fame as the defender Of
Mafekng during the South African
War, and the founder of the Boy
Scout movement, to advance which he
retired from the army, has started on
tour of the world in the interest of
the organization.
The central idea of the tour is to
consolidate the movement throughout
the empire, to coordinate it as a great
imperial organization and to standard
ize the method of management as far
as possible. AS the route necessitates
Sir Robert passing through America
and other countries, he will attend
meetings in the interest of the Scouts
in those countries.
Sir Robert proceeded first to the
West Indies to visit the Barbados,
Trinidad and Colon, and while in Pan
anna will visit the canal works. New
York will be reached about January 81,
and thence the tour takes him to,
among other cities, Boston. Philadel-
phia Washington, Cincinnati. Chicago,
San Francisco and Seattle. From the
latter port the General will take
steamer for Japan. where, under a
promise made to General Nogi, an
effort will be made to start the Boy
Scout movement in Japan. General
Baden-Powell has previously visited
Canada.

VOTERS WILL SETTLE
LIGHT ORDINANCE

| Monday night : session of the council
was one of the most lengthy recently
INDUCED in by the city fathers. The
meeting was not adjourned until almost
midnight One of the most interesting
matters receiving the attention of the
council W 5 petition signed by voters
of the city, who asked that the ordn-
ance, providing for the proper con-
struction of overhead wires, be re-
ferred to the voters as soon as possible
instead of being referred to them at
the general election next December.
An ordinance was presented to COM
ply with the prayer of the petitioners.
The ordinance, which provides for the
holding of the special election here
March 2, was finally passed Monday
evening
An ordinance was brought in provid-
ing for the removal of snow from side
walks and in failure to comply with
which providing that the city marshall
remove the snow and that the abutting
property owners stand liable for the
expense. However, it was thought by
the majority of the council that the
present ordinane, providing penalty
is sufficient to meet the present de-
mands.
The Fire and Water committee rec
ommended the passage of an ordinance
providing that all telephone and elec-
trio wires be placed underground in
the fire limits of the city and that in
other portions of the city all telephone
wires be placed on one site of the
street and electric wires on the other,
the electric wires being placed on one
set of poles. The officers appointed
for the special election were: judges,
A. G. Buck. j. H. Gill and O. Fl.

A Unique Weather Report.

l., D. Firebaugh. who keeps the Off
cial U. S. Weather record for this
locality, has submitted a report which
is unique in the annals of weather
freaks" 1t is safe to say that for a
period covering only eight days one of
the most remarkable examples of Ore
gon weather is shown. The following
facts, quoted from Mr.. Tirebaugh's 5
official record are well worthy of not
ice:-
Friday, Jan. 5, snow commenced
falling at which time five inches fell.
On Jan. s, 2l.25 inches fell. Jan. Z,
"a. 75 inches was added to the former
precipitation and the mercury dropped
to IA degrees below zero. On Jan. 8,
2.25 inches of snow fell. On the fol-
lowing day 2 inches of rain and sleet
made a covering of the entire snowfall
Of 68 inches and the mercury dropped
to degrees below. From the 18th TO
18th, 2 inches more of rain fell making
total of u inches of rainfall from
Jan. to Is inclusive. This. together
with the grand total of 68 inches of
snow made complete the unique record
OF the heaviest precipitation OH record
for so short a time. -Mosler Bulletin.

BrayfOrd Leaves us Guessing.

Drawing our conclusions from the
the close of letter recently received
from him, we surmise that Enoch

and that he will return to Hood River

NEW COMPANY ENTICES
WITH LOW RATES

Since the books of the Pacific Power
& Light Co. were transferred to the
New Hood River Gas Il Electric Co.
last Friday, the new corporation, in
an effort to entice the local customers
to continue the use of its electrical
energy, has been combing the city
with solicitors, who are Offering ex-
ceedlngly low rates on the fiat rate
business to business men and owners
of residences. The most sensational
offer made by the new company is that
to the Commercial Club, whereby il
offers to give to any corporation Or
ganized here before June 80 six months
Of free electrical energy TO any
amount. 'This offer stands good until
the date designated, said one of the
solicitors of the new company, no mat
ter how large or how small, we will
furnish free of charge the juice for
their business. Applications for such
opportunities are requested to be made
either to the Commercial Club or
brought directly to the office of the
company.
The solicitors are meeting with a
great deal OF Encouragement in their
efforts to secure contracts. because Of
the fact that the greater portion of the
local customers have contracted with
the Hydro Electric Co. for service and
which it announces it will support.
The officers of the new company are
G. N. Macarthur, president; l.. =.
Hewitt, vice president; Frank J. Lone
gran, secretary-treasurer; and Albert

exception of Mr.. Hall all the officials
are Portland men.
The injunction suit argued before
Judge Bradshaw at The Dalles last
week has not yet been decided, the
Judge having taken it under advise
ment. AT The Monday night meeting
of the city council the Fire and Water
committee reported that it favored the
contract, which is now held up by the
injunction, be carried out.

RUSk, CANDIDATE
FOR CONGRESS-

John p. Rusk, eX-speaker of the
house of representatives of the state
legislature, makes this week a full
announcement of his candidacy to re-
present the new Oregon district in the
halls of Congress. Mr.. Rusk says:
IL was born on a farm near Mil
waukie. Clackamas County, Oregon.
June, II, 1878, lived there with my
parents until was about Is years old.

Methodist SCHOOL, and then spent three
years in Stanford University, outside
of these three years have lived all
my life in Oregon, the last nine in
Eastern Oregon.
81 have lived the past nine years in
the irrigation district and | feel,
having been lawyer as well as land
owner interested in the question of
getting water, that am qualified, to a
slight extent anyway, to represent
water users and know something of
the needs of this Eastern Oregon
Country with respect to irrigation.
The present method of handling the
reclamation work is too slow, too much
red tape. | would favor placing this
work in charge of man of the capac-
ity for work of Col. Goethels of the
Panama Canal, in fact we will soon
be called upon to.iind a new lob tor
him, so why not put him in charge of
this reclamation work. Give him a
hundred million dollars to start in with
and more if he needed it to complete
the work. Raise the money by the use
of the government credit; the govern
ment is nothing more than the people f:
arrange to pay the interest and grad
ually the principal, by easy Install
ments to be paid by the settlers on the
reclaimed lands. Get busy and let the
present generation see and enjoy some
of the benefits that will come with the
completion of this work. See also that
Oregon gets her fair share of the
Reclamation fund.-
IL favor a Government line of
steamships from the Atlantic to the
Pacific coast via the Canal, il need be,
so that we may reap the benefits OF
the Panama Canal. As to the open
river from the Inland Empire to the
sea, no person in all Eastern Oregon,
take It, is now or ever has been OPP
posed to this, and have always worked

Prof. Lawrence will as soon as the
weather permits with his inspectors
inspect the city street by street. In

to be sprayed just as the orchards of
the Valley.

expert, 81 have found Mountain Ash
trees that are literally covered with
scale. While we may have our or
chards clean Of this pest at one mo-
ment, the scale may be carried at any
time to the trees and all of the spray
work will have to be done over again
TO kill the pests. And another thing
that causes eye sores to the city is the
lack OF care given to fruit trees in
vacant lots in the city. These trees,
III pruned and uncultivated, not only
do not look well, but just as the shrubs
OF the town, carry disease pests and.
since they are of no economical value
whatever. should be done away with.
Prof. Lawrence, who is at Corvallis
this week delivering a series of lee
lures to the students of the Short
Course at the Agricultural College,
will not only carry on the work of the
County Fruit Inspector but he will as
well attend the duties. which formerly
were done under the superintendent

wage an active. scientific and expert
