The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1914-10-01

Although he has been christened Jm!
Dandy, he has often been called High
Speed for he has never been seenNto
travel in a walk. Jim Dandy is a little
fox terrier owned by the children of A.
c. Lofts. He follows Mr.. Lofts milk
cart on its rounds of delivery over the
city and woe be to the cat that happens
to cross his path. Dogs, just as men,
have hobbies, and chasing eats is jim
Dandy's hobby. MIR. Lofts keeps a
number of cats around his barn; for
they keep away the mice. He, how
ever, has to rig up Contrivances in the
loft, where the cats can escape when
Jim Dandy gets ready for war. Jim
Dandy has received numeruOs scars
about his face and body, but he will
fight till covered with blood, no matter
how many cats attack him.
The small dog recently accompanied
his master, Arthur Lofts, on hunting
expedition east of the city. He chased
bob cat from the brush and the ami
NAL was shot by Sol Spear. No sooner
had the big cat bit the earth than Jim
Dandy was on top of him. The cat, as

little dog. but jim Dandy never once
stopped to consider this as he closed in
on the ferocious beast that, had the
wound not been fatal, might have made
an end of a very brave little dog.
The city of Mosier had a calamity
the other day. A new law prohibits
stock from running on the streets. The
hogs of one of the residents were i'm
pounded. They were advertised. Tho
owner came to claim them: the pigs
had vanished. Somebody had stolen
them from the city pound, The city
will have to pay the owner for the pigs.
Ducks eat thousands of Gsh, as every
one knows who tries to eat duck
early in the season before the bird has
been allowed to feed on grain, but Van
couver, Wash. reports catfish killing
duck. The latter had attempted to
swallow a seven inch mud cat, the fin
of which had the ducks throat. The
duck was picked up with the fish
lammed in its bill.

HANNA AND WORST
AND LAND BANKS

Hanna declares that he is for
land banks, but has newspaper
boosters keep parading before
the people how Hanna proposes
to help out the farm loan busi-
ness at Low rate by lending out
the school funds, and also point
ing. out the amount Of school
funds already loaned out and
money invested in bonds.
There is reference made too,
to the amount of unpaid balances
due on school lands. These state
ments should not mislead' any
one, as the hands are sold on
twenty years time and if all
could be put on the market it
would take a number Of years to
sell them all, unless they were
sacraficed.
There is immediate need for
much larger sums than the state
LANDS will bring, for farm loans
at moderate rate of interest.
There should be no delay. Worst
qualified his approval of farm
loan banks by saying eff neces-
sary which looks suspiciously
iIke being ready to find a reason
for not favpring them. The repu
tation by the Hanna newspapers
about the state Land funds looks
very much like an attempt to
down sentiment for farm loan
banks sufficiently to keep down
any action by the incoming legis-
!lative assembly.
The people are directly inter
ested in this matter and should
not be left in doubt as to where
any man who is seeking public
office stands. Every office seek
er should specifically declare
himself. -Searchligtt.

PHOTOGRAPHER TO 60
WITH GOVERNOR

The North Dakota Abraham
Lincoln Statue committee have
suggested to Governor Hanna
that it would be we'll to have a
photographer accompany the gov
eralor, his party and the commit
TIE to Norway to take views OF
the different places of interest
that will be visited, and also to
take views in moving pictures
at the time Of the presentation
of the statute to the people Of
Norway, July 4th, next, at Chris
tiania.
Acting upon this suggestion,
the governor has appointed Mr..
+. HOlmboe of Bismarck, N. D.,
one Of the finest photographers in
the northwest, and Mr.. Holmboe
will accompany the party to
Bergen, North Cape, Thrond-
hjem, lhristiania, Stockholm
and probably into Denmark and
Germany, as it is the intention
of the party to visit those coun-
tries while in Europe.
The idea Of the committee in
asking that an official photo
grapher 60 with the party is to
give the Norwegian people OF
the state, whp have not had the
chance to go to Norway this
summer, the opportunity to see
these pictures, which can be ex-
hibited in the schools, churches
and before various societies. this
coming winter.
