ChAUTAUQUA CONCERT

/. Those who listened to the programs
at the meeting Of the Hood River
Chautauqua last summer at Lava Bed
Park. in the Upper Valley. were antic-
ipating rare treat In the concert
given at the Congregational church
Tuesday evening. and they were not
disappointed. Those who heard the
artists for the first time found the pro-
gram put on by the Chautauqua man.
agement far beyond their expectations.
While the attendance was good, yet
there should have been more. Where is
there another place the size OF Hood
River that can get together such an
aggregation of musical talent as this?
4 During the entire thirteen numbers
the audience was thrilled and eapti-
vated with each in turn, and each num-
ber was encored heartily and responded
to cbeerfully. To single out which was
best would be difficult task. There
were no weak spots, but each COM
plete rendition in itself.
While local talent was largely re-
sponsibie for the excellent entertain
mont. the Portland Ad Club Quartet
made the list complete. They were so
we'll pleased with their reception at
the Chautauqua last summer that they
expressed themselves as glad to come
to Hood River any time, and this Is the
only place they have ever appeared on
| the musical platform outside Of social
entertainments 1t Portland.
The net proceeds of the concert will

obligations incurred at the summer
meeting.

ALBER'I P. REED
ELECTED MAYOR
BUT LITTLE INTEREST IN ELECTION
Less than Half the Registered Votes Cast
at the POlls-0ne-T Third
Women

..The city election Tuesday resulted in
the election of Albert p. Reed ms yor,
with a margin of 3s votes over his op-
ponent, A. Q. Staten. The successful
candidates for councilmen are: c. A.
Bell, J. NJ. Culbertson, Z. A. Franz
and E. l.. Seobee. II. L. Howe for
recorder and L. A. Henderson for
treasurer were reelected without OPP
position. The vote was as follows:
For Mayor-A. G. Staten. 127: A. p.
Reed, l65.
For Councilmen-C. A. Bell, 1871; ].
M. Culbertson, 1853; e. A. Franz, 256;
C. D. Hinrichs, $50; John Often, 1856;
E. L, Seobee, 1893.
For Reeorder-H. l.. Howe, 254.
For 1reasurer-L. A. Henderson. 247.
There were. Just 800 votes cast, 20 of
these being sworn in, and with regis
tration of over 600, a little less than
half vote was polled. About one
third Of these were women, about the
same proportion as at the primaries.
There was very little interest taken
in the election. which was the quietest
in years. No prominent issues being
before the people. which would cause
them to take sides, with fight to the
finish, there was general indifference
as to which candidates were elected. A
personal interest in one or more names
on the ticket brought out many votes
which otherwise would not have been
cast. Up to noon there had been but
so votes cast, the balance coming in
during the afternoon.
Probably the most important work
confronting the new administration
will be the financing of the deficit in
the new water system. for many of the
problems which have been before the
council for number Of years have
been solved. The past year has seen
the installation of the new water sys-
TEN and the paving of streets, and
while there will be some work to be
done in the way of accepting the new
system, the greater part of the work
has been done.
What changes will be made in the
appointments has not been indicated by
the new mayor, who has had hardly
time to give it consideration. II is not
probable that Judge Derby will be a
candidate for city attorney. In fact.
he has been rendered. by Governor
West. the job Of county attorney, left
vacant by the resignation of Geo. r.
Wilbur. and he is considering the mat
| ter, but is yet undecided whether or
not he will accept the position.

MONDAY NIGHT MADE
SOCIAL NIGHT

To create more interest among the
members who enjoy social features,
the social committee of the Commercial
club is planning series of surprise
events for each Monday night and this
weeks affair drew large attendance.
many being there who had not been
in the club rooms for months. Secre-
tary Ravlin also reports that he is re-
ceiving applications to come back into
the fold from some who have dropped
out of the club because they did not
get any social benefits, and also new
members among the younger set who
enjoy the new social features.
Monday night there were two hand
ball contests. the billiard room was
crowded with players, and general
good fellowship prevailed. The athletic
features that have been added include
handball, boxing. wrestling and general
gymnasium work. The old duplicate
whist games which were in vogue in
the old club room over Jackson's store
several years have been revived, and
two tables were going Monday night.
Checker players also got busy, and
there was something doing to suit a
variety of tastes.
Next Thursday. December II, an
excursion of gorwers has been planned
by the club to attend the Pacific Inter-
national Live Stock Exposition at
Portland. Notices have been sent to
the growers of the valley to attend
this meeting. and Secretary Ravlin has
met with such generous response that
he expects that at least 80 will attend
from here. II is believed that this
show will stimulate more interest in
dairy cows and hogs in the valley. as II
will give the ranchers an opportunity
to exchange ideas on the live stock
question. as well as to see an exhibi-
tiun of good stock.
Next Monday night will occur the
annual election of officers. The nomin.
ating committee has placed the follow.
ing names 10 be voted upon. Dr. r.
C. Brosius. G. y. Gilbert. and X. X
Scott. 1t is probable that at least
three more names will be added to the
list before election night. The retiring
members of the board are DIR. j. +.
Watt. G. X. Marshall and J. T.. Rob.
estson.

THE FUTURE OF
THE APPLE BUSINESS

"What Is the future of the apple

president of the Northwestern Fruit
Exchange, who Is spending several
days here on business.
al have lately returned from visit
to all the principal fruit districts Of
the northwest, where have met the
leading growers and men interested in
apple growing. The very fact that
this question is being asked in a year
when prices are high and the growers
have every reason to expect ample re-
turns. shows me that the grower is
giving more attention to the business
of fruit growing than he ever has be-
fore. Heretofore the grower has con-
sidered each year sufficient unto itself,
and has Immediately forgotten all
about last year or the year before
that. Now he remembers last year

sTEAD|ES COTTON
Bears Incline to Go Slow Because
Of Too Much Company-Poor
Spot Demand.

NEW YORK, Nov 24-There was a
narrow opening In the cotton market to-
day, first prices being l to 9 points
lower than the closing quotations of Sat
spot interests and Liverpool was also
accredited with being a seller.
Sentiment continues bearish and
bears had everything their own way
to 1905 and January to 1878 and at
the end of half an hour the list stood 5
to 10 points lower than the opening
range, but at the low levels, which rep
under the high level OF Friday. Novem
Der IA, there came active demand. 1t
came from houses with New England
connections and during the forenoon
prices rallied within a few points OF the
initial range
Trade slackened up during the ex-
IRENE forenoon and the market ruled
very narrow with the undertone fairly
steady and disposition on the part of
traders to, go slow on the bear side.
Holmes and bearish cables were largely
offset later in the day on Turner's
estimate OF 1S.747,oo0 bales. This
caused hesitancy on the part of the
Sunday shorts, causing a rapid recovery
of the initial losses. January rallied to
1890; December moved up to the open
ing quotations, while March advanced

cry. however. the demand failed to
broaden, but the market was sustained
around the high point in absene of sale

At the close the market was steady,
with prices showing irregularity, being
