JUDGE GRANVILLE
HONORS WASHINGTON

Judge r. c. Glanville, chairman of
the Tuesday Lunch club meeting. paid
tribute to Washington, whose charac-
ter, he declared, was one of the most
remarkable of American history.
Judge Glanvile who cited that most
members when it came their turn to
act as chairman of the lunch club
meetings discussed topics with which
they were most absorbed. He declared
that he was prone to take Eyes" as
his subject. He told his hearers of his
recent anxiety over the condition of
his eyes.
81 faced the necessity of a skilled
surgical operation, he said, cor the
certainty of going stone blind. If you
think such frame of mind is happy
one, just experience it.
Judge Glanville urge the lunch club
to devote its energies toward activities
that would engender closer friendship
among members.
The meeting Tuesday was at the
Pheasant. Members next week will
go to the Columbia Gorge hotel.

BLOWERS CANDIDATE
FOR LEGISLATURE

Judge Blowers Saturday, following
appeals from various elements of city
and valley, consented to enter the race
for representative in the legislature
from this county. To date Judge
Blowers is the only contestant who has
officially declared himself a candidate
for the epresentativeship, and be-
cause of his popularity with city and
rural elements alike. it is not likely
that he will meet with opposition, ac-
cording to those who have observed po-
litics here.
Only two county officers are to be
elected here this year, county commits
sioner and county assessor. No an
nouncements have been made for
either position. Respective incum-
bents, both Republicans, are f. H..
b Backman and Jasper Wickham.
The formal announcement of Senator
Chas. Hall, of Marshfeld, for the gov
ernorship, has created considerable
speculation here. Although Senator
Hall formerly resided here, sentiment
expressed by various elements last
week Indicated that he will receive a
strong opposition in the Apple Valley.
Expression of local electors points to
a strong local sentiment favorable to
Governor OlcOtt

COUNTY'S END OF
HIGHWAY OPEN

Before noon Monday crews of men
under Senator Nckelsen completed
cutting through the last drift of ice
and snow on the Highway near Camp
Benson, and the road in Hood River
county is now opened from Multnomah
to Wasco county and thence on east.
Motorists may proceed from the east
to Cascade Locks, where they may be
ferred across the Columbia to Steven
son, to proceed on their journey over
the North Bank Highway.
Mr.. Nickelsen had expected to have
the Highway open Saturday night, but
two days Of heavy snow last week in
errupted his plans. The drifts from
the last weeks SHOWS, Mr.. Nickelsen
says. reached depth of four feet in
the newly opened deep cut on the
Highway. These, however. we're
formed of soft snow and are not troub-
ling motorists. They have, indeed. al
most disappeared.
I'VE found that the action of the
snow and ice between here and the
MultnOmah county line has caused con-
siderable damage to the pavement"
declares Mr.. Nickelsen, who ac-
companied District Engineer j. H.
Scott on a tour Of inspection Monday.
The pavement has been badly cracked
in spots. Fences have been smashed
and walls pushed down The cost of
repairs will be considerable. | would
not attempt now to estimate it. f"
Mr.. Nickelsen says that slides on the
between Cascade Locks and
the Multnomah county line, which was
cleared of snow soon after the Novem-
Der sleet storm, will have to be
cleared off before traffic passes over
the route. This can be accomplished
within few days. however.
Because of the narrow cut through
ice and NOW blockades, Mr.. Nickelsen
says that traffic over the Highway for
the present will be limited to passen-
ger vehicles He states that heavy
trucks will break shoulders of the
where the single track runs
along the outside Of the surfacing.
