The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1916-07-06

| by the famous Crater Lake, and on the
northwest shore of Lost Lake, some
enterprising man is some day going to
erect a hotel that will draw thousands
of tourists.
Since the opening of the Columbia
River highway. local commercial hos
telries, the Hotel Oregon and the
Mount Hood hotel, both excellsntly
equipped for the purpose, have become
to a great degree resort hostelries.
Numerous motor parties visit the no.
tells, spending several days touring in
their cars to surrounding points of
scenic interest. Hood River and White
Salmon are winning renown as being
the hub cities of the scenic midi -Colum-
bia Cascade region.
All roads in Hood River county are
in fair condition, and even the more
remote resorts are easy of access. The
Mount Hood Railway Co., operating q
rail automobile. carrying comfortably
80 passengers, connects with O.-W. r.
& N. trains and conveys passengers for
Cloud Cap Inn or Mount Hood Lodge
to Parkdale. The Mount Hood line
itself operates a we'll equipped summer
resort hotel at Parkale. within easy
reach Of which are the Middle and
East Forks Of Hood river. where trout
fishing is excellent.
A number of auto livery concerns
may be secured to convey passengers
over the valley highways. The Fashion
Livery Co., makes regular trips daily
to and from the Upper Valley. The
company, perhaps the largest of it's
kind outside Of Portland, makes a
specially of carrying passengers
through the scenic region in large,
comfortable automobiles.

Trochoma Report
Is False Alarm
NO MORE CASES THAN USUAL
REPORTED FROM NEARBY
MINING TOWNS

DR.. L. N. Yost stated today that
the number OF cases of Trachoma re.
ported in this county at present was
no larger than usual, and the report
of an increase of this disease In this
community given out by the attendant
at the State Health Exhibit at the
Fair ground this week was not true.
There is a certain amount of this dis.
prevalent in the mining towns
of Monongah and Baxter. the majority
of which is under the observation OF
attending physicians.
This disease is not Quarantinable
although very infectious and has been
brought to this section by Turkish
and Syrian miners. The disease is
one very prevalent In hot and dry
countries where the small particles OF
sand and dust irritate the eyelids
until they become sore an infected.
Coal dust also has a tendency to con.
tinue this irritation, according to the
local health officials, and for hits
the affection is difficult to con.
troll in the mining settlements.

Ing in the life OF folks who don't think.
but happily for THIS government most
OF its folks do. They are thinking
more than ever on the affairs of gov.
eminent. It does mean also why It Is
that the tariff question Is again forg-
ing to the front as q live-a very live
Issue in the present campaign. There
are ample predictions that 1t will be
paramount before the canvass closes.
The tariff is mixed up in everybody's
business. The man who ticks a stamp
is likely to pause in the act while
a wee, small voice asks the eternal
"why?" Right there, be he wise, he
will follow up the query. He will find
that he is all bound round with the
tariff, and that his investigation will
lead him inevitable to a customs house.
The foreigners he will find unloading
their ships there will not be licking
stamps.
