THE ROAD PETITION

The petition asking the county court
to assist the citizens residing in the
west end Of the county along the Col
umbia river is meritorious and the
court will be making no mistake in
granting it, While it is true that the
expenditure of moneyscalled for will be
small step toward securing a compile.
tion of the Columbia river highway
through Hood River county, just for
the moment forget that such thing as
the Columbia highway ever existed.
While comparatively few of the resi-
dents Of Hood River county live at
Wyeth and Cascade Locks, that few
have no way of reaching the count seat
by wagon road, and yet, as their petit
tion shows during the six years history
of the count the two road districts west
of the city have contributed $40, 600
worth Of tax money. An almost imper-
ceptble amount of this money has been
expended in the districts raising it. Is
1t not just that these citizens of Cas-
cade Locks and Wyeth receive the
favor asked for at the hands of our
county court? We shall watch with
interest their decision in the matter.

TURN OUT FOR ELECTION

From interviews that we have re.
Gently had with representative growers
Of the valley, the trend Of popular
opinion has turned against the City Of
Utility. Il is true that the initial and
primary reason for the formation Of a
new municipality in the valley, 'the
lowering Of light and power rates,
caught many, who we're carried away
on the popular tide, before a compre.
henisye idea Of the proposed plan was
had 1t may be, and no doubt is, q
fact that lighting and power rates are
too high, considering the possibilities
for cheap development on the Hood
river. Naturalization 'of the plans Of
those promoting,sthe City Of Utility
will not lessen them. Even though the
new town were to furnish light free of
charge, it would so burden itself with
attendant expenses that the light and
power secured would be a dear luxury.
But are we going to be able to pre-
dict the result Of the election on April
20 by the way people are at present
talking? Are all of those who are OPP
posing the City of Utility going to turn
out and go to the polls? From the fact
that the proposed plan will dig into
their pocketbooks, we think that most
Of those who are interested in property
in the bounds of the proposed new
town and who are opposed to the
scheme will vote against it.
The election Of April 20 is going to
be heavy expense to the valley. The
mere maintenance of an election board,
of course, does not amount to much,
but remember that the residents of the
whole 36 square miles will be called on
to spend a day aways from their work
in expressing their views. If the elec-
tion carries, before the necessary ma
chinery of city can be put into motion
other elections just as expensive must
be held

GOOD ROADS DAY

Governor West has promised that
April 25 will be set aside as Good Roads
Day in the state Men, womenLand
children will be asked to devote their
time and efforts on that day toward
not only making better highways in the
state, but toward arousing a spirit
or good roads that will cOQtinue The
work throughout the years to come.
Earnest work on the part of the
states population will improve many
stretches of bad road on April 25.
Many dollars worth of work will be
done. But perhaps the greatest good
will result from the desire for better
highways, which the days work will
inspire.
Local folk are already taking interest
in the Good Roads" day. Mrs. c. d.
Hoyt of the Oregon Mothers Con
gress, has mailed letters to members of
the Parent-Teachers Association, who
will be urged to assist the men on that
day ana to encourage them with eXpec.
tations of good things to eat and,words
of cheer.

ed promptly to the announcement made
in the Glacier last week that +. b..
Cloud and J. r. Newton, of the new
cannery, desired experimental paintings
Of peas and beans to determine Just

season is about due and the distribu.

1t Was Big One, Though, and Held
All it's Numerous Members.
The first courthouse Of Henry
county, H., was frame structure,
eight feet by fourteen. set in the
midst Of an uninhabited prairie But
as little villages began to spring up in
the county lively contention for the
| honor of being the county seat began.
Cambridge finally won, for it was
nearest the center Of the county.
This was in the forties OF the last
| century. The first session of circuit
| court was at hand and Cambridge was
on Its mettle to entertain the court
| suitably. The difficulties to anything
but pioneer courage and resourceful-
| ness would have seemed inSuperable.
! The village consisted of eight or ten
| little dwellings, tiny general store. a
blacksmith shop and a carpenter shop.
| The new courthouse was unfinished,
| but would be used, as the session for
| tunatcIy fell in the summer
Now the housewives laid their heads
together TO contrive how the court
officials, litigants ana Witnesses
should be lodged aud fed. There was
| almost nothing that could be bought,
| except sugar, mOlaSses, tea. coffee and
hour But they had an abundant sup
ply of yellow legged chickens, home
cured hams. milk, eggs, butter and
| cream, as we'll as their vegetable gar
dens to draw on. There was no fresh
fruit, but they brought out their cher
ishcd stores of wild plum marmalade
and wild crabapple preserves. Both
were made with moasSes, aud after
they had sufficient time to season were
really delicious, Besides, the hlllsides
were pink with the beautiful wildwood
Sorrel, the leaves Of which make de-
licious pies in skillful hands
The village boasted one group of
forest trees, a small grove Of sugar
naples half Il mile away, and In their
shade Mr., Atwater built a long table
with sawhorSes ana boards. With the
combined stock of table linen, crOckery
and cutlery possessed by the house.
wives the table was laid with sutfi-
Cient elegance, according to pioneer
standards, 1t was felt that the court
would be properly feaSted but how
about lodging? That was the real diff
iculty. The tiny houses aud their
beds were full TO Ovcrtlowing with
their proper inmates.
But there was the loft of the car
penter shop. The store had Il whole
bolt of unbleached muslin 1t was
torn into lengths equal to the length
Of the loft and sewcd together by
hand, OF course.
Then the loft door was covered deep
with nice clean shavings, the immense
sheet laid over them and tackled 10 the
walls all the way round. on this
Brobdingnaglan bed the court lay in
two rows. From the extra supply re-
quired for winter enough quilts were |
mustered to cover the sleepers As for !
pillows no one gave a thought to those |
effeminate luxurles The lawyers |
might lay their heads on their saddle

thankful.
Thus was the circuit court sumptu- |
ously fed and sufficiently lodged. |

that the bell was long used In a con

1t is Il platitude that pain IL as one

considerable way short of the truth
The measure Of pain undoubtedly de-

upon sensation. In other words, the

most intensely, though not perhaps
most violently. Pain and death are
terrible In proportion as one Is capable
Of relating them to experience. To
children they are not terrible In this
sense, because children have small
experience and even smaller powers
Of imagining relations.
