JUOCAL COMMENT.
Oregon City talent Is coming to the front
in the literary world. Eva Emery Dye's
books are meeting with remarkable suc
cess; Edwin Markham, who was boru in
Oregon City, is still making. fame, des
pite adverse licks from the critics.
Father De Roo's "HiRry of Amer
ica btor Cotttmbar," H' '"'"'K
commendation commentfrom critical
circles. Mrs. Higginson, who spent her
school days in Oregon City, has already
made a reputation for herself in the lit
erray world.
It is evident that Clackamas county
will soon have her quota of creameries
and cheese factories, which will be
wealth-producers. However, it it a won
der that more farmers do not establish
henneries. It takes less capital to start
the business, enabling every farmer to
operate his own outfit. The price of
eggs has been beyond the reach of many
would-be customers on account of the
scarcity and high price for seve'al
months past. It pays even to 'produce
eggs when prices are low.
The new city council may have oppor
tunity to' practice reform and retrench
ment in more ways than one. In fact, it
is not believed that
will be wanting.
