UPPER VALLEY
CELEBRATES
RALLY HELD LAST FRIDAY NIGHT
Officials Urged to Hasten FOrmalitieS that
will Lead to Immediate Construction
Of Trunk of Scenic Loop

The largest and most enthusiastic
crowd ever gathered in the Upper Val
ley, excluding sessions of chautauqua
held several years ago in Woodwork
Park, assembled Friday night at Park
dale to celebrate the victory for the
$3.50, 600 highway bond issue, which
will enable the county to join $3.50
with the state in constructing 5000, =
600 trunk highway up through the
orchards. The new trunk will connect
the Upper Valley fruit sections with
the town Of Hood River and the Co
lumbia River Highway by road with
maximum grade of five per cent and
serve as the local link of the scenic
Loop Highway around Mount Hood.
Upper Valley folk are as elated over
the success of the bond issue as were
citizens of the city in 1914, when by
voting an issue of SIS, 900, the opening
of the Columbia River Highway was
assured. Just as the road up the can
yon of the great waterway surmounted
barriers that had hitherto isolated the
entire Hood River valley, so will the
construction of the new trunk road
make the Upper Hood River valley one
of 0regon's best known communities.
Such was the import of addresses by
Upper Valley citizens at the celbera-
tion.
The crowd gathered around huge
bonfire in an open space in front of
Mclsaac's store. Coffee and wiener
wurst sandwiches were served. The
Upper Valley citizens are eager to see
immediate construction of the trunk
road, and speakers urged that county
and state officials 10 hasten formalities
that will lead to grading this year. 1t
is likely that the first units of the bond
fund will be applied to link of the
highway around Booth hill and section
Immediately south of the city, up the
Hood River gorge and penetrating the
heavy orchard section of the East Side
A. l.. Boe presided at the celebra-
tion rally. Speeches were delivered by
X. j. Mclsaac, M. O. Boe, w. l.. Ma
son, Col. w. S. Dowd, Hugh Ball and
j. H. Fredricy.
The Knights of Pythias band added
to the spirit of the meetinglwith con-
cert.
Mr.. Fredricy announced that Mon
day, September 10. the Commercial
Club would hold a celebration of the
road bond victory. He invited all Up
per Valley citizens to be present. The
meeting, he said, will be called Park
dale Night"

Regardless OF Union Label.

Employing printers OF Wheeling,
whose plants are closed because OF the
job printers demand for a i4 hour week
have prepared notice to City Clerk
Homer G. Crago that they expect their
bids to be considered for printing the

not be able To print these ballots with
the union label. An ordinance adopted
by city council in 1898 requires the
printing Of the union label on all work
printed for the city OF Wheeling. and
this is the first time occasion has arisen
for q test of this provision.
Shortly after May |. when the plants
OF the News I.ithograph company. West
Virginia Printing company. Bullard
Printing company. Ohio Valley Litho-
graph. company and Owl Print Shop
were closed by the strike, bids were
opened for printing the primary ballots
The News Lithograph company bid
$l62.5O for the contract. the West Viz
ginia Printing company. S1SO.5O, and
the Wheeling Majority. the only plant
which signed the A hour week agree

l.ithograph company nor West Nir-
ginia Printing company profeSscd to be
able to use tho union label and the con-
tract was awarded the Majority at Its
bid $7t higher than the lowest bid.
In view OF this situation the employ
ing printers on Saturday met and ar
ranged to insist that the contract for
printing the general city election bal
lots be let to the lowest bidder regard

OF people who witnessed the Feat from
various parts Of the city stood wide
eyed and amazed at the nerve OF Il
driver who would attempt 10 take an
automobile over the Chaplinc street
road.
The road the machine travers"d has
not been used for many years and an
automobile has never gone over the
trail. In places II is badly washed
while in other spots 1t is scarcely more
than a foot path. in places skirtinE 4
zoo foot elm. but the daredcrilS made
the trip and safely returned.

whose home IS In tincinnati Is inc
West Virginia agent Of the Eicar com,
pany. and has been in the city several
days on business.
Yesterday afternoon he remarked 70
n number Of employees Of the garage
that he would take them ride, and
asked where 10 20. Looking down Eoit

continue their trip.
From that time on the machine was

cheers from = number Of men and
women who were at the rifle range on
the summit The machine was driven
10 the highest ridge OF the HILL and
then back TO CaldwellS run.

trim Is that the police department re-
reiyed call from somewhere. saying
that two mon. either intoxicated or in

Gus hill in an automobile. An officer
was dispatched to investigate but by
the time he arrived at the foot or the
