the strength of Mr.. Conner. where
upon Mr.. Hartwell made statement,
which l thought he intended for pub
lication, or at least was not unwilling
that it should be published
Mr.. Roberts, in The Age-Herald of
September 12 published a statement
of the interview, which read and
thought was accurate at the time. NV
attention is now called to a. letter
written to The Age-Herald by Mr.
Hartwell from French Lick, Ind
dated September 49, in which he seems
to think that he was inisquoted. On
reading that letter, and reading it
along with the original statement of
Mr.. Roberts, 1 can see no substantial
difference between them, except that
the original statement is q full state
ment of what Mr.. Hartwell said, and
the letter Is a condensed statement.
The impression that I gathered from
his statement is very similar to the
impression gathered by Mr.. Roberts
Difference in Statements
Perhaps I should say that in the
original statement Mr.. Roberts quotes
Mr.. Hartwell as stating that Mr.. Co.
mer had written to Mr.. Thompson that
he was willing for the present situa-
ton to continue unchanged, SO that
it might be inferred that this was the
first statement of Mr.. Conner on the
subject to anyone in Mobile. Mr..
Hartwell, however, states that Mr..
Conner first statement on this sub
ject was made in one of his speeches
Che doesn't state where) in the OPEN
ing Of his campaign that prohibition
was not an issue in the campaign,
and he would not make it one, etc,
and that he (Comer) afterwards con-
frmed this statement in a letter to Mr.
Thompson. ~
II do not see any difference between
the two statements in substance or
effect
II am making this statement with
out any desire or intention of adding
to any controversy, but rather in the
hope of settling 1t. and because I am
too good friend to Mr.. Hartwell to
question his veracity or good purposei
on any subject. Yours very truly,
(SignSd) JAMES WEATHERIY."
I regret that it has appeared to mi
necessary that / make this statement
1 trust that now the incident is closed.

S53,847 SPENT FOR
. SCHOOLS IN P|CKENS
Some Interesting Figures
Produced From Report
of Superintendent

Carrollton, october 1S.-(Special) )-Some
interesting figures are produced from the
report of the superintendent of education
of this county for the past year. in which
is shown that the county received from
the state appropriation s25,7i2; county ap-
preparation, special county tax. $685.; city
appropriation, $2i7, general property tax,
$l2, G00;i matrculation and incidental fees,
sS675: supplemented by patrons. $132l state
and local sources for erection and altera-
ton of schoolhouses, $500; all other
sources, $i09. The total amount being ex-
pended is $55S47. While this is an excel
lent showing, the distressing feature is
that this county has 1853 white school
children who are of school age with an
enrolment of 70 per cent in the schools
and only 40 per cent of these are regular
attendants.

The appropriation Of sl,2o0,OOO for
the completion of the Cello canal is
double that of last year. The idea Of
the river and harbors committee was
that the appropriation should be no
more than last: year $500, 600 to 500,

surprised when it came back from the
senate providing an appropriation of

surprised but sore when the bill as

WHY TOM LUSK
LEFT HOOD RIVER
by Albert T. Tozier in the Salem
Capitol JournaD

10y Aluert 1. 1ozler IN the Salem
Capitol JournaD
Tom Lusk, the boss timber man of
the big Silverton country, was in the
city yesterday and made a visit to the
editorial rooms of the Juournal. Tom
ana the writer were up in the Columbia
canyon when Hood River blossomed
and White Salmon also began to spruut
its buds. Tom had to leave that sec
tloH, or be would have been worth
million or two now. Ii wasn't anything
mean be did that caused his hegira or
klatawa, or whatever il was on which
be left. The trouble was that the eli
mate was so healthful, the strswber-
rles so luscious. the fruit so delicious
ard the people so generous with il, that
Tom took on a second growth like a
Eugenic baby. whatever that is, with
a tummy girth record to break. and be
got so big that he couldn't turn around
IN the canyon, and so had to come down
to the valley here there was more
room When he came into the editorial
den Yesterday afternoon, he looked so
big and fierce ss he asked one of the
reporters If the editor was in. that the
reporter, who feels friendly to the edi-
tor, sized shim up, took look at his
rather stern face. and hesitatiugly re-
marked; Il don't know: why?" The
humor Of the situation struck Tom, and
as he burst into laugh. the reporter
remarked, Eyes. that's the blamed old
sinner over there, and he pointed at
the writer just like all women do at
the banquets when they speak Of Sa-
lem's brainy and handsome men.

RAISE MORE STOCK,
ANDERSON'S ADVICE

Hood River people ought to raise
more livestock. i" says j. B. Anderson,
manager of E. ]. Young's packing
house of this city. I'VE are equipped
to take care of all the stock raised In
the valley at the present time and only
wish the people would raise more pigs,
sheep and cattle, that we might be
able to buy them here, instead of hav-
ing to 20 into foreign markets for cat
tie and hogs. We could pay the top
price for all animals and yet be able
to sell our goods cheaper, since We
would have no freight to pay. We will
be glad to see the orchardists raising
more livestock.
The slaughter pen of the packing
house, which was built here five years
ago, has been remodeled, and the
place is one of the best equipped
in any town of twice the size in
the state. 1t has an ice making and
Tefrigerating plant. The refrigerating
room will hold the carcasses of so
heeves. 60 sheep and 80 hogs. Mr..
Young owns large lot west of the
packing house and he has planned to
build large warehouse there at some
future date and increase the capacity
of his plant. The plant. located as it
is on the 0-.W. R. & N. tracks and in
the factory district of the city, is
ideally situated. However, Mr.. An
derson is among those urging the city
to hasten street construction through
the factory section of the town.
/. Mr.. Young, the owner of the plant,
who is now in Washington. Pa. has
long been in the packing business.
For many years he was connected with
the Armour Go. in Pennsylvania.
Later he began the operation of his
own plant at Washington. He recently
increased the size of this plant, and is
now personally supervising it.

B. SO. There is hardly good style
model that one can'see, without drap-
ing in some manner or other.
The pannier was at first greeted
with all sorts of remarks, mostly rather
unfavorable, for, you know. most con-
servative dressers do not rush at new
style features with any marked en-
thusiasm, and wisely so, for when they
are first introduced, 1t must be they
certainly.appear as quite extreme. And
extremes are, as rule, not popular
with sensible, good dressers.
And so the pannier has been altered
and changed and modified, until now
you can have pannier dress made by
all means. for it affords wonderful pos
sibilities for stunning effects.
For evening wear, especially, is
draping demanded, as the softer fluffy
materials are used, and they lend
themselves so beautifully to that.
Can you select anything more simple
nd truly elegant than this model, No.
7l54, for your new evening frock? The
waist is draped to correspond with the
oddly arranged pannier skirt, and it
has cleverly shaped yoke that ex-
tends into panel at the front. This
yoke could be of soft cream tulle or
maline, while the dress is developed in
the palest pink crepe de chine or crepe
meteor. A touch of color can be in
troduced by making the cute little
rosettes of deep shell pink.
Tunics and tunic effects, too, are
very popular, and splendid example
of the tunic dress is shown here. You
can work it out wonderfully we'll of
old blue voile with the sailor collar of
the sheerest cream dimity or bstiste.
and the same simple design of en-
broidery as can be used for edging the
tunic, etc. This will be unusually
charming for informal evening wear OF
visiting.

NORTH YAKIMANSPR0-
POSE apple DAY"

"Apple Day." to mean to the north
west what ''Raisin Day" is to the Sac
ramento valley, has been proposed In
North Yakima and the idea has been
taken up by the Commercial club, the
Yakima Valley Fruitgrowers associa-
tion, the public schools, women's clubs
and other organizations, says dis
patch from that city.
On that day steward of hotels, res
taurants and clubs will prepare special
menus in which the apple, in its vari-
GUS forms, will be the principal item.
Housewives will be interested by offers
of prizes for the best recipes for dishes
using apples and for menus which use
that fruit in the most forms.
In the schools prizes will be offered
for the best essays on the dietary ben
efts of eating apples and on phases of
apple growing, and for the best apple
pies baked by girls.
Merchants will make special displays
of apples in their windows, and will
make low prices ON boxed apples on
that day. Women's clubs and charit-
able organizations will see that every
poor person in the city will have apples
on that day.
The idea has been taken up with en-
thusiasm in North Yakima, where the
big problem of finding all the old mar
kets and of creating new ones has sbeeu
recognized as the essential one before
the fruit growers of the northwestern
states, and any movement which will
make the Washington or Oregon apple
more popular is gladly received.
The date will probably be about
April |, although that has not.been de-
cided and commercial clubs of every
city in the state have been asked.to
help in making the decision. Governor
Lister has been requested to name
"Apple Day" by proclamation. Com
munications have been sent to every
county school superintendent and news
paper in Washington and business men
of North Yakima are boosting for
"Apple Day" in their letters.
