It is copied from an artists painting

SNOW IS STILL PIuMG UP
Eighteen Inches Here During
Week and Heavier Fall Re-
ported in Nearby Sections

1t has been showing here of and
on during the week, but did not get
down to real business until Thurs
day. 1t then commenced in real
earnest in the forenoon and contin-
ued during the day and that night,
about 10 inches falling. and with the
six inches the fore part of the week,
we now have quite a respectable
showing. There was considerable
wind Thursday night and the new
snow has drifted badly in places.
Reports from Ruby Hill, Prospect
Mountain and Pinto summit give a
much heavier fall than in Eureka.
Men working in the mines on Pros
pect and riding horseback from Eu-
reka were unable to reach the mines
Friday and had to turn back. Peter
Ardans was unable to reach Pinto
with a sleigh and four horses loaded
with 1000 pounds of cotton seed cake.
He succeeded in topping the summit.
but said it was impossible to get
through the drifts on the south side.
The mail for Newark valley and Ton
kin is now beipg carried out on pack
animals as it is impossible to get over
the SUBMITS with any kind Of con-
veyance.
The train that left Palisade Friday
morning did not reach Eureka until
midnight, bucking snow all the way
up. Late in the afternoon it was re-
ported stalled on Garden Pass sum-
nit, but about $50 p. III. reported
the engine had succeeded in clearing
out the big drifts in the cuts and was
again starting for Eureka.
The unusually long and extremely
cold Winter is particularly hard on
the cattle raisers of this section.
Nearly all of them had to commence
feeding hay to their stock the latter
part of November. and four months
Of steady feeding has about cleaned
up all the hay. in fact some of them
have already exhausted their supply
and been compelled to turn out their
stock, and unless there is a decided
change in the weather and a heavy
thaw. the present deep fall of snow
is almost certain to cause heavy
losses.
The outlook for the sheepmen is
much better, although the present
heavy snowfall will probably serious
ly disarrange their plans. The depth
of the snow will make it almost i'm
possible for them to eros the ranges
for several weeks on their way north
to their shearing and ! q m b i n g
grounds. and those that have planned
to lamb early are liable to meet with
losses. 1t is reported that a number
of bands started homewards several
weeks ago. but the recent storms
caused a right-about-face order and
we hear Of none of them far enough
north to have been caught in the
present deep snow.
While the sun is shining to-day,
the barometer at l p. m. registered
at storm and falling.

A SUGGESTION

Hood River has been prosperous the
past year. The Valley of Apples is on
the up grade
The annual ehautauqua of next sum
mer should be a successful one. We
w0ul tie. howe 'er, 10 make sug
gesti n u tas ho have the chautau-
Qua l.. ......se. lake it for what il is
worth.
When YOU start TO sell season tickets
refrain from any spirit of begging. q
characteristic of some of the chautau-
quas Of the past. Just offer the tickets
with statement Of what their posses
sion means. We haven't seen chau-
tauQua season ticket that WASH worth
twice the price asked. But kind Of
psychological laundering has had an
effect to hurt the chautaugua. Here
tofore the purchaser has been made 10
feel that he was giving something,
making sacrifice. Let him feel, in
stead, that he is getting his full
moneys worth and more. In other
words. remove from chautsuquas all
idea Of charity. The chautauqua is a
business. worthy one. Conduct it as
such. Then you'll have the standing

how it happened next summer.

TOTAL OF AUTO
PURCHASES Sl26,59(

Motor ear dealers report total of
las new automobiles sold in 1918. and
the sales would have been much
greater II more machines could have
been secured. The total of purchase
prices for cars reached Sl26, $50.
With the war over and a greater
supply of machines available for 1919,
garage men and dealers are predicting
that a new record for automobile sales
will be made here. Dealers also ex-
pect to sell many trucks the coming
year. Orchardists, it is said, find the
motor truck invaluable in handling
fruit, not only from orchard to pack
ing house, hut, after the apples have
been boxed, to the shipping point
Motor trucks are preferred for hauling
Strawberries. The motor vehicles have
eliminated the congestion noticeable
around receiving warehouses when
fruit was transported over valley roads
chiefly by horsedrawn rigs.
The Ford garage leads with sales
last year, having sold 63 new cars
Other agencies made sales respective
ly as follows: Hood River Garage.
i6; Gilbert Motor Co., 35; Foust &
Merle, 8, and Heights Garage. 3.
I Local concerns will handle cars this
year as follows: Hood River Garage.
Paige, Chevrolet, Hupmoble. Cleve.
land tractor and G. NJ. c. trucks; Ford
Garage. Fords, Maxwells, Ford trucks,
Republic trucks. Fordson and Cleveland
tractors Gilbert Motor Co.. Dodges and
Chambers and Master trucks; Heights
Garage, Oak lands and Mitchells.
1t is not expected that any price
change will be made in automobiles
until at least after this fiscal year is
finished.

The NATION GRIEvES

News of the death Of Theodore
Roosevelt. at h's home at Oyster Bay
Sund ,;xt. fl a wake of grief
throu =. ne.ica. The news came
as shock. While Col Roosevelt, As
had been known. had been suffering
recently from throat disorder, it was
not known to the public to have been
serious.
The political affiliations Of Ameri-
cans were forgotten when they heard
that the great leader was no more.
He was the great, candid, outspoken
American. He was the head of a
noble, loyal family. family that has
suffered the sacrifice of a member.
Roosevelt made political opponents by
the frankness of his attacks, but he
was universally honored and respected.
And however hostile one may have
been, he will shed tear for Teddy
Roosevelt. genuine American.

The CHURCH'S PART

As was interestingly pointed out by
Bishop Matt S. Hughes in his address
to local people recently. the churches
of America played an important but
unheralded part in winning the great
war. In a very large degree the iden.
tity of the church organization was
lost as the body merged with the great
movement of patriotism.
And the churches will have part
great in the days Of reconstruction,
The Methodist church alone has
planned to raise $50, 600, coo for recon
struction work.

Burglary Remains Mystery

The alleged burglary of the Western
Union office remains a mystery. City
authorities think it peculiar that they
have never heard anything directly
from the Seattle Office of the company
since they reported the loss, as told
them. by Operator II. j. May and
Messenger Boy lsenberg.
The stories as told by the messenger
boy attracted the suspicion of officers

both eager to clear up the mystery
that seems to attach to the case and
relieve the suspicious against the
operator ana messenger if possible.
