GOOD MINE SHOWING.

Superintendent w. A. Gates of the
Climax Mining Company, reached
the city Saturday. He gives an ex-
cellent account of recent develop
ment, stating that the mine force
would be added to this week, by
at least eight more men being plac-
ed underground. The ten stamp mill
is running steadily on free milling
ore, and in few days the dismant-
ling of the Hidden Treasure plant
near Turkey will begin, it to be con-
solidated with the mill now in op-
Grafton. Communication is again es-
tablished and the snow is fast dis
appearing.

end of the Balkan war After a
siege lasting for months, and that
must rank in history, from a mill
tary standpoint, with that of Port
Arthur by the Japanese, it finally
was carried by storm.
The Turk has not been a success
full fighter in modern times, except
i'll defense. There he has shown
himself a past master He would
fight doggedly, starve uncomplain-
ingly, endure all the hardships OF
heat and cold, saying, at is as
Allah wills"
But as an aggressive warrior, he
has not been a success. He was
driven by the Russians to the de-
lenses of Constantinople. He de-
feated the Greeks, but at that time
the Greek army was a rabble, and
cowardly, though the Greeks have
redeemed themselves during the
present war from the charge of cow
ardice. Possibly it was then because
they had no confidence in Prince
Constantine, their commander, or
his officers, that caused them to
run away.
Following the ending of hostili-
ties will come the delicate question
of the distribution of the spoils.
There the allies will clash among
themselves, and the great powers
will each have an AK to grind that
will test all OF the resources of di-
plomacy to keep Europe out of a
general war.

APRIL I IS CHOSEN
DATE OF Big SHOW
Miss Head Will Give of Her Best
At Monday Club Ministries On
That Evening.

If you are at all in the local lime
light, you may confidently expect tc
see your petty peccadillos, your
smaller peculiarities and weaknesses
cleverly lampooned by skirted min
strels of the Monday Club, at Elks
Theater, Monday, April 9TH, at
o'clock, sharp. Get your tickets
early, if you would be within ear
shot of the jokistes.
Viva Head, one of Prescott's
most loved daughters, and probably
the finest singer Arizona has pro-
duced since Thumb Butte was in
swaddling clothes, has very patriot
ically rendered her services for the
Minstrels. Miss Head is not
ashamed of her age. She was born
in Prescott in 1890, and it is said
that certain scion of French nobi1-
ity considers that year the most
suspicious in the Christian calendar.
Anyhow, Miss Head will give her
best, vocally, at the Elks, the Mon
day after April FOOLS Day, and,
with her fine presence and unim-
peachable tonal ability, will prove
one of the many big drawing cards
the Monday Club have gathered for
the occasion.
Miss Head is a graduate of the

CALIFORNIA BOY
BURGLAR HAS PALS HERE
(From Sundays Daily.)

Jack" Burton, a youth of only
Is years, was arrested at FL Centric
Cal, on Monday of last week for
attempted robbery of the postoffice
after quite an exciting chase with
officers. On his person were found
many letters, taken from boxes He
stated, after taken into custody, that
he was one of gang of seven who
left the east and looted many stores
along the Santa Fe and other rail
roads.
1.-TWO of my pals have been tried
and sent to the Arizona penitentisry

was part of his confession. This
reference is supposed to include the
two boys sent from Coconino coun-
ty about one month ago for robbing
stores in Williams, and at Ash
Fork. One of the bunch" is now
in the Prescott county jail and has
pleaded guilty to the Ash Fork
crime, and is very anxious to begin
serving his time in the penitentIary.

JAMES HAMILTON LEWIS.

The democrats have gained an
other United States senator through
the election of Colonel James Ham
iIton Lewis, of Illinois, after pro-
ionged deadlock To be sure, he is
offset by the election OF L. Y. Sher-
man to fill out the unexpired term
of Lorimer. Unless he can secure
an election from the next ieeisIa-
ture, the term of Mr.. Sherman will
be short one.
Colonel Lewis was once a nem-
Der of congress from Washington
state. He made reputation OF hav-
ing the pinkest whiskers and more
different kinds of clothes and more
Characterization manners than any
other statesman dared sport in the
national capital. The colonel is just
as proud of his whiskers. is just as
polite, is just as exaggeratedly dress
ed now as he was then. He not
only will be a democrat in the
senate, but he will continue to be
the particular property of the para
grapher and the cartoonist. He will
make picturesque speeches on every
conceivable subject and he will make
them in an interesting and pictur-
esque sort of way He will not be
taken seriously except by the man
who crosses rapiers with him in
debate.
The election of Colonel Lewis is
one of the events Of the year, an
he will from now on until the end
of his service make an enormous
amount of copy for the reporters.

loss of nearly one thousand lives. Al
SO. during the year 1912, the Balkan
war begun and the fiercest battles: OF
modern times were fought We
might enumerate many other occur
rences that would far more than off
set the calamities of 1918, to date.
The period covered by the past
twelve months has been one of vast
ly more than ordinary interest and
the newspapers haze had to bring
out their big headline type many
more times than is usual during
such average number of months.
Without searching the files, the
following incidents of far more than
usual importance are reached: The
Titanic disaster; the Missippi val
ley floods; the tornadoes and cy-
clones of 1912; the tragic death Of
c. P. Rodgers, the greatest aviator
in the world, as he was returning
from chasing seagulls at Long Beach
California; the bolt of the Roosevelt
followers at the Chicago convention
and the formation of the Bull Moose
party; the almost record-breaking
convention of the democratic party
at Baltimore and the defeat of
Champ Clark for the presidential
nomination after he had secured a
majority of the delegates, the sec
ond time such thing had occurred
in the history of the nation; the pre-
sidential campaign and the wound
ing of Colonel Roosevelt at Mil
waukee; the Balkan war; the assas-
sination of the Spanish premier; the
passage OF the Irish home rule bill
the commons; the outrages
committed by the militant suffraget-
ties Of England; the Inauguration of
Woodrow Wilson; the overthrow Of
the Madero government in Mexico
and the tragic end of the president
and vice president of that republic;
the assassination of the king of
Greece; the cyclone that wrecked
Omaha; the foods now raging in |
Ohio and Indiana, and the fall OF
Adrianopie, the holy city OF the
Turks. .r.
Those enumerated by no means
are all of the really Notable occur
-ences of the period. Others of
great importance, have been chron-
cled by this paper. nearly in every
instance giving first news to our
readers.

GAYNoR'S GOOD ADVICE.

Mayor Gaynor knows the secret OF
good government, even if he has
failed to put his knowledge to good
use in the administration of the
affairs of New York City. Mayor
Gaynor is a trenchant letter writer,
an incisive public speaker, we'll
read and intellectual man who made
a good judge, but he has proved a
good deal OF a failure as an execu-
tive official But his philosophy is
sound and worth needing. Here,
for example, is an excerpt from a
letter to a young man who wrote
him regarding the commission form
of government:
mo form of government, how
ever good, will serve good govern
ment. That depends upon the men
put into Office Devise as you will,
contrive as you will, in forming in
struments of government and laws,
in the last analysis you have to trust
somebody. Government depends
more on men than on laws. Good
men will give good government,
even with bad laws but bad men
will not give good government even
with good laws"
No truer observation was ever
made. The people must, indeed,
trust some one, and in exact ratio
as their ability grows to discover
the right men to trust, the cause of
good government will prosper
Great emphasis is laid now days on
the forms OF governments, as if all
we needed to enjoy millennial bles-
sings is a new form OF government.
Thinkers are at work everywhere
hammering new devices into. shape
and asking legislatures and con-
gress to approve Some OF the
changes are good, some are absurd.
But amid the clatter of the hammer
ings, let US not forget that the fun
damental thing after all is to get
the right men into Office.
If the wrong man is elected, no
system can. cure the defect II al

this man. his recall and the eiee-
ion Of another might be no better

VINEGAR PLANT AD~
DITION is ASSURED

| Members of the Commercial Club
committee declare that the addition
to the vinegar factory is assured. The
committee has given out the following
statement:
Club that have been interviewing the
Growers in the Valley about taking
stock in the Hood River Apple Vinegar
Co. have about enough signed up to
assure the building of the addition this
fall required to take care of the Gull
apples.
at will be impossible to interview
personally every grower about this
proposition and in order that all may
know about it we will briefly outline
the plans.
"The Growers are asked to take
stock in the Vinegar company, one
share for each acre of bearing orchard,
payable during the next two years in
Gull apples. 1t is necessary to build
from $50, 900 to 200, 600 gallons more
tankage this fall They have about
ITS, 900 gallons of vinegar left from
open tanks for six months to year,
as the high class trade demands an
aged vinegar with more color.
THE Hood River plant is turning
out as high grade vinegar as any plant
in the country and is building up fine
trade for their product. If the grow
ers take the proper interest, they will
start building first class cannery and
evaporator early next spring.
"This will give US an outlet for the
over-ripe berries that are now going
to waste every year and encourage

MERCHANTS WOULDAID
COUNTRY CUSTOMERS

Give our country customers as good
streets as we ourselves have" was the
sentiment expressed in the petition of
the Hood River Retail Merchants
League submitted to the city council
at the meeting last Monday evening.
The retail men asked that the city
take steps to macadanize the portion
of State street between the end of the
Hassam paving and the west approach
to the wagon bridge across Hood
River. which they declared would get
in frightfully muddy condition dur
ing the winter months. The mer-
chant also asked that the bridge be re-
planked, declaring that the present
uneven state of the flooring was not
only injurious to the vehicles but to
the bridge itself.
A petition was received from resi-
dents living along Sherman avenue be-
tween Ninth and Twelfth streets, ask
ing that concrete sidewalks be placed
on the north side of the street before
wintertime. The petition was re-
ferred to the street committee. DR..
II. l.. Dumble was granted grades in
front of his property fronting on Ninth
street, that he might build walls there
and protect his property from excava-
tions recently made in the grading of
the street.
Action was taken by the council at
the report of the street committee to
build a plank walk from the 0.-W. r.
& N. station to the Underwood ferry
landing. and the assurance was given
that the road leading to the landing
would be kept in good condition.

CAMPERS BOOST
LOST LAKE ROAD

Enthusiastic in their expressions as
to the scenery of the region, the fol-
lowing party returned last Friday from
a camping expedition on the shores Of
Lost Lake, where they had been spend
ing ten days: Editor Geo. Robbins, of
the Pendleton Live Wire, Mrs. Robbins
and S. R. Oldaker, of Pendleton; DR..
Ralph Davis, Mrs. +. +. Morgan, Mrs
Edith Tozier Weatherred, J. r. Ready
and Albert Tozier, of Portland; and
Judge w. H. Hollis, of Forest Grove.
I'VE had the feast of our lives, Z"
says Mrs. Weatherred, "for the huck-
leberries were ripe and our hunters
furnished us with all the venison we
could eat. Judge Hollis became an ex-
pert fisherman and added to his laurels
by catching fine lot of beauties from
the deep cool waters of the lake. Lost
Lake is one of the most beautiful of
the Northeastern scenic spots; but in
deed, it well deserves the name Lost
Lake: for the roads leading into the
placid, blue body of water are very
poor, and yet it is well worth the
journey"
Several members of the party, in
cluding Mrs. Weatherred and Judge
Hollis. are prominently connected with
the Good Roads movement, and they
expressed themselves as being alto
gether out of sympathy with the atti-
tude the Portland authorities hsve
taken in regard to the closing of the
Bull Run reserve. The members of
the party declared that it was not
thought that the road would cause any
pollution, and they have made study
of just such roads.
"The Loop Boulevard as has been
proposed, the Lost Lake road connect
ing with the Columbia River Highway, ;"
says Mrs. Weatherred, twill form one
of the most magnificent drives for the
m0torist in the world. The people of
Portland should be willing to aid in
this work instead of retarding it. F."
The members of the party are also
going to make an investigation of the
possible methods of destroying the
many water dogs that infest the lake
and that swarm in the hundreds over
the beds of the spawning fish, eating
the spawn. The lake trout will soon
become extinct if this menace is not
stopped, and Judge Hollis and others
of the party have declared that they
will endeavor to get the state authori-
ties to aid in the work.
The water dogs are said to swarm
by the millions at the mouth of the
creek from which the waters of the
lake have their source. They are so
numerous there at times that the
water is fairly black.
Mr.. and Mrs. Robbins, while on the
trip. occupied the tent used by Gen.
Lawton, while in the Philippines. The
canvas has no less than dozen bullet
holes in it. II was brought back from
the Islands by Albert Tozier, who re-
cived it as a souvenir of the days spent
there One evening very hard rain
fell, and Mr. and Mrs. Robbins found
the bullet holes the source of no small
annoyance, for small rivulets were
soon streaming through them. "And
they were almost impossible to rem
edy," said the Pendleton editor.
