early action by the Senate on the

GOOD ROADS
DEBATE SET
SESSION AT PARKDALE TOMORROW
Parkdale-HOOd River Paved Road to be
Discussed Speakers Are Loaded
for the Occasion

Hood River valley interest now cen
ters in a good roads debate to be held
Friday evening at McIsaac hall at
Parkdale. A. l.. Boe and l.. B. Gibson
will support the affirmative and Geo.
R.Wilbur and E. c. Miller will take the
negative of the question: Resolved,
That paved highway should be con-
structed from Parkdale to Hood
River. The debate, it is expected
will develop methods of financing the
proposed road by issuance of bonds and
it is likely that a general lot of good
roads data will be presented.
The debate will be held under aus
pices of the Mems Forum of the Upper
Valley, who will entertain delegation
of members of the Hood River County
Commercial Club at luncheon. The
local men accompanied by the Knights
of Pythias band will journey to Park
dalesby a special rail auto of the Mt.
Hood r. r. Co. President Fredricy
says that about 80 local men expect to
visit Parkdale.
All of the speakers declare that they
are loaded, but none of them, for fear
that they will release their thunder to
their opponents, will enter into a de-
tailed discussion of how he is going to
release his ammunition. The debate
will probably raise points of location.
The negative will probably advance
The argument that the construction of
The paved trunk line should be post
1oned until period of greater stabil-
ty and prosperity.

LUMBER COMPANY
OWNERSHIP CHANGES

On March first the Bridal Veil Lum-
bering Co. and the Hood River Fuel
Co. were succeeded by new local or
ganzation, the Emry Lumber & Fuel
Co. The Bridal Veil Co. has operated
retail yard in Hood River or the
past ten years under the management
of Nelson Emry. The original yard
was located on the railroad tracks west
of the vinegar plant, but year and
half ago the business was moved to
new quarters at the corner of Fourth
street and Cascade avenue. At this
time the scope of the business was en-
larged line of paints and builders
hardware was put in stock and trucks
we're purchased for making deliveries.
The Hood Biver Fuel Co., local or
ganization, came into existence a year
and half ago and has built up very
successful business in wood and King
Coal. They handled last season the
entire local output of slabs from the
big mill at Dee. This business has
also been managed by Mr. Emry and
handled through the Bridal Veil Office.
Nelson Emry, who heads the new
company. has been resident of Hood
River for the past twenty years, dur
ing which time he has made an envi-
able business acquaintance throughout
the valley. His success has been
by hard work, cheerful
ness and a spirit of accommodation. His
are also Hood River people
and the profits of the business will now
remain in Hood River and aid in up
the community. We are glad
10 welcome the new firm as one more
thriving home institution.

TWO MEN FOUND
DEAD in REFER

Local railway and Apple Growers
Associations officials on learning last
week that two unidentified men, appar-
emily brothers, were discovered at
Council Bluffs. Ia, dead in a refriger-
ator car, loaded with apples, billed
from here to New York City, declared
it extremely unlikely that the men
boarded the cars in this vicinity. Re-
frlgerator cars, equipped with charcoal
burners, fumes from which apparently
caused the death of the men found, it
is stated, are inspected at each division
point and the unfortunates discovered
at Council Bluffs, probably entered the
car between that city and the last
point of inspection on the Union Pacific
line. The Association. the records
show, had six carloads of apples mov-
ing to New York City and due to pass
the Iowa city about this time.
Railway officials announce that all
refrigerator cars carrying charcoal
heaters are routed with doors sealed.
following orders issued about two
months ago. Such orders resulted
from fatalities to tramps stealing rides. |
Several such deaths were reported last
winter. All carloads of apples routed |
with heater protection leave here
with charcoal burner. The |
heaters, however, are not lighted until |
zero weather is encountered Officials
say that charcoal heaters in the car
we're probably not lighted until the car
cached Pocatello. Ida,.. and the death
If the men found must have occurred
beyond that point. Because of the re-
'ent ruling as to sealing of heated
.ars, the presumption is that the men
must have broken the seal on the car.
