A Lighting Talk That Will
Interest You
RESIDENTS of Hood River generally appreciate our efforts to
help in the development of the whole country and are looking at
the matter of .securing electric energy in the right light as a purely
business proposition. They are giving their business to the company
that gives them the CHEAPEST RATE. As a matter of fact this is
all there is to it, and every keen-witted business man and householder
realizes it.
Now a word about this "home company" slogan. The HOOD
RIVER GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY will donate $200 to the
library fund of the Hood River Woman's Club or any pubic enterprise
that the members of the club may designate if the Hydro Electric
Company will publicly prove that the stock of the latter company is en
tirely held by residents of Hood River and that the company is en
tirely financed by home capital. The committee of investigation to
consist of five persons, one each from the local banks, and one of the
officers of the Hood River Gas & Electric Company and the Hydro
Electric Company. This offer will remain open for five days from
date, March 15, 1912.
Our main proposition, however, is to give you the benefit of the
cheapest possible rate for electric energy.
You will make no mistake if you sign with
us. We are here to serve you.

(ROAD WORK ASSURED
! BENSON GIVES CHECK
! Completion of the wagon and auto
' mobile road between Portland and
! Hood Kiver will be soured this com
ing eummer, is the belief of E. E.
I Cooverl. Acting in behalf of S. Ben
' son, a well known timberman and good
! roads enthusiast, he niailed to Gover
! nor West a check for f 10,000. ir.struct
i ing the governor to use it as he sees
I fit in the construction of the road
around Shell Kock.
A good deal of blasting must be done
in putting the road around the moun
tain. For this work it is understood
the governor will employ several ex-
fiert safe-crackers. Mr. Coovert aid
ast Thursday he understood 20 con
: victs will be set at ork at Shell Rock
i at once.
Mr. Coovcrt'i letter to the governor,
ion behalf of Mr. Benson, gives the
, governor a free hand in the use of the
money, only the stipulation being. that
i it shall be used within a year, and for
I the road around Shell Kock, and that
! the governor report to Mr. to Benson
from time to time, how the money has
been expended.
"Mr. Benson, who is at Long Beach,
asked mo to see what Hood River and
Multnomah counties would do toward
the completion of the road," said Mr.
i Coovert. "I would have sent Governor
j West the check before, but I wanted
first to see wnether or not the money
was available, from the counties, for
the road's completion. I found that
the levy has been made at Hood River,
and that $12,000 is now available.
Multnomah county will spend more
than $20,000 on the road next summer
and with this $10,000, and the use of
the convict labor, the road should be
finished before fall, so teams can drive
over it. We may hope to get the top
dressing on all of it before the rain
sets in.
"When completed, this road will
make one of the most beautiful scenic
automobile routes in the world.
"The construction work around Shell
Rock is almost all hand work, and can
by done by the convicts to advantage.
Governor West says he will employ a
supervisor, and tnat all the rest of the
work will be done by the convicts, that
he will have convict cooks and trusties
as overseers of the gangs. The men
are glad to work in the open, for they
get 25 cents a day spending money
which they do not Ret when they are
at work in the stove foundry.
"Governor West is going over the
state making his speeches as to the
benefit to the roads his convict camps
will be, so there is a demand for these
convict gangs. We have put in our
application early, so that I believe we
shall have plenty of men at work.
"Without this convict labor we could
not possibly finish the read for this
amount, as we should have to pay $2.50
day for workmen, and on a big job
this runs into cash rapidly. "Oregon

OBITUARY
Mrs. Clara Augusta Knapp
Clara Augusta, wife of J. J. Knapp,
died at the Portland Sanitarium
March 8, after an illness of five months
and ten days. She suffered extremely
much of the time, having undergone
three surgical operations, all of -which
served to lessen her sufferings for a
time.
She met Mr. Knapp in the state of
Kansas in the early part of the year
'88. In the spring of 1889 Mr. Knapp
came to the Pacific Coast and located
in Seattle. Mrs. Knapp, then Miss
Ouillen, came to Seattle, May 28, of
the same year and they were united in
marriage, May 29. Later they came
to Portland where Mr. Knapp was en
gaged in the manufacturinfg business
for a dozen years. Four years ago they
came to Hood kiver where they have
resided since.
Her life has been one of devotion to
her family. During the months of suf
fering she was patient and kind and
won the love of physicians and nurses.
Her death was beautiful ; her hope in
Christ was sure.
She leaves a husband, one son, and
one daughter to mourn, all of whom
were at her bedside much of the time
during her illness and constantly dur
ing the last three days.
The funeral was held at Finleys
Undertaking Parlors, Saturday, March
9, in Portland, where a large number
of friends met to pay their last trib
ute. Sunday, the tenth, the remains
were brought to Hood River and laid
away to rest in the Idlewild Cemetery.
A few of the friends and neighbors
from the vicinity were' present, where
a short service was held at the grave.
Contributed.
Mrs. Jean Morris Ellis.
Mrs. Jean M nris Ellis began a series'
ot lectures Tuesday evening at the
Christian church, on psychology and
phrenology ; they continued through the
week. An offering will be taken. The
lectures are instructive and interest
ing, and you will find them well worth
your attendance.
