Anna Lowry Sues 'HoIy Dad

The case Of Anna VI. Lowry VS..
Father Murphy Of Cheney, Wash,
is now on lilc in the superior court
of Spokane County, Wash. Miss
Lowry sued the 'holy" man for
$4,000 for using vile language
against her ON August /, 1915, at
Medical Lake. Wash. II has not
been so long ago that a Romish
priest had Miss Lowry arrested at
Winona, Mimi, alleging that she
used obscene and indecent language
in an address TO women only. Now
the tables are turned.
Rome uses the obscenity dodge TO
persecute and prosecute offenders
against her so-called religion and
does not hesitate to direct even
worse terms toward ladies and chill
dren who may interfere with her
peaceful CD pursuit Of plunder and
oppression of innocents. Miss
Lowry has an able attorney prose-
cutting the case for her and hopes to
secure judgment in her favor.
1t was only a short time ago that
Miss Lowry was arrested at La
Grande, Ore, on the charge Of hay-
ing used obscene and abusive Ian
guage in a lecture on Convent
Inspection" The case was brought
into court and dismissed by the
Judge with a reprimand to those
responsible for the arrest. Rome is
determined to harrass Miss Lowry
wherever she goes and no means are
too despicable to use in bounding
one who has felt the clutch Of
Rome's bloody hand and escaped.

THE BOARD OF CONTROL

when man is proposed for public
life, says Il. II. Shepard, zone of the
first thing that happens is that some
newspaper begins to get biography
of him. If the record that is dug up
shows that he has been a careful man
in the conduct of his business, working
for the good of his community as we'll
as himself, the chances are that the
public will place trust and confidence
in him.
With this in mind Mr.. Shepard has
produced in the April number of Better
Fruit a biographical sketch of each
memer of the Board of Control and ex-
ecutive committee of the northwestern
fruit growers Growers Council. And
Mr.. Shepard's $ data shows this body of
men to be composed of conservative
business citizens, leaders in their rep
spective communities. Ii is a body of
men in which the northwestern fruit
men can place their confidence.
The members of the Board of Control
have evidenced sincerity of purpose
and their endeavors should work to the
benefit of the great fruit industry.

THE LIBRARY BOARD
AWAITS COURT REPLY

Members of the Hood River county
library board are awaiting a reply to a
demand made of the county court to
honor vouchers drawn on them for the
payment of salary of 500 to Miss
Della F. Northey. The library board
members maintain that they have
authority under the existing statutes of
the state to administer the affairs of
the county library and to handle the
moneys appropriated to it. 1t is main
tanned that Miss Northey was secured
under contract that she be paid $50 per
month. The contract expired March l..
The court, however, at budget meet
ing the latter part of last December
cut Miss Northey's salary to SIS. The
board. however, decided to cut other
funds, in order to make up the SIS per
month cut from the salary, and the
court has not allowed their vouchers.
1t is stated that the library board
has received opinions from the state S
attorney general and from Attorney
Geo. r. Wilbur to the effect that their
course of procedure is legal.

MAINTENANCE OF GRADE

In former years the reputation of the
grading of Hood River apple growers
and that of their pack of fruit was just
as good as that of United States gold
bonds. All growers took personal in
crest in the fruit. 1t was considered a
stigma, above which man could not
rise except with difficulty. to deliber-
ately try to get around the packing
rules. And even though the guilty
party tried to redeem himself he was
most certain to be watched with sus-
picion.
For the most part growers still main
tain good pack. But from a kind of
indifference that has sprung up and
from the Inauguration of a new system
of packing the fruit, the Hood River
standard for grade has been seriously
lowered, Such a status of affairs is
not just simply regretable. Unless
drastic steps are taken to remedy the
condition, it win menace the foundation
of a great Hood River asset. The
world apple markets know Hood River
apples as perfect apples. 1t will be
easy work to keep that reputation.
Once lose it and it will be difficult to
build up again.

APPOMaTTOX

Fifty years ago last Friday was wit
messed the final incident ia the fall of
the Confederaey. General Lee laid
down his arms and formally suTren-
dered TO General Grant at AppOmsttox
courthouse, and thus was ended one Of
the most bitterly fought civil war in
the history of the world.
But 90 years have passed and few
are the traces of raneor, hatred or bit
terness left. Veterans Of the two
great opposing armies, who sought to
vanquish each other there in the will
derness" of Virginia so years ago,
mingle together the closest Of friends.
More firmly united than ever the
United States stands as practically the
only greet nation Of the world not en-
gagged in a fearful war.
At the close of the bitter war one
might have expected that II would take
centuries to overcome the effects of the
conflict. But the phenomenal has hap
pened, and in half century, while the
Civil war has not been forgotten, the
hatreds of the period and the recon-
struction days following have been
buried. II seems that all agencies, as
though set to work by some greater
than-human hand, have lsbored to
bring about such an end. The mag
nanimity of Grant in his dealings with
the defeated Lee and the latter's army
caused the men of the Confederacy to
return to their homes without feeling
of resentment toward the soldiers of
the Union army. For the most part
big men, broad of mind and farsighted,
we're at the helm of affairs, and de-
spite the blunders of reconstruction
methods, the seams Of battles were
quickly smoothed over.
The progress OF the age, itself, is
probably more responsible for the
transition than any other agency. The
movement of business, the increase in
inter-travel among the people of the
states of both the north and the south.
II the people Of the south had been left
to themselves; II progress and develop
.ansnt had not called them from their
sectionalism, they would have lin2ererd
and brooded over the lost cause. The
hatred with which their own beings
we're imbued would have been handed
down to the coming generations. But
such was not to be.
The destinies of nations we cannot
understand. Just as through strange
agencies and wondrous ways God works
toward ends to be desired in the case of
mortal men. just so divine power seems
to shift nations, masses of men. Peace
prayers rose on every hand in America
so years ago, just as they are rising
today. the Almighty being beseeched
to end the great European war. Who
knows but that in another half century
the world may look back on the great
upheaval that is now stirring the souls
of men. thatsis leaving its millions of
dead and wounded, and see results that
have lifted the nations to higher
nlann
