Very few of our residents know
that the small black bear of Oregon
is an inhabitant of the hills on the
opposite side of the river. They
are not numerous by any means,
but there are a few of them, L.
A. Foster of St. Johns killed n fine
two-year-old bear a mile below
Liuutou last Saturday. The car
cass was taken to the ro idhouse,
its hide removed and tacked up on
the front of that holstery, where it
proved quite an attraction to the
frenitenters of the resort. These
bears are comparatively harmless
and flee at the approach of man,
only showing fight when wounded
or protecting their cubs.
J. H. Laudram, formerly of St.

"I hoe The Review and the busi

the trade of the farmers across the
river. There is a lot of business
there that wants to St. Johns.
Yes, I know a lot of tickets have
been sent over to us, but we do
not want tickets. We have money
enough to pay our own fare. Rut
we do want good roads and trans
portation facilities to get our teams
and produce into town. I want to
come here and sell my produce and
do my trading here. So do my
neighbors. We have all kinds of
fruit. This fall I expect to have
over 40 tons of prunes and an equal
weight of pears. 1 lien we have
potatoes and fuel to sell. Stir the
people up so that we can get in and
out of town without inconvenience
and we will all come here."
