all ready for the spring run of steelheads
at the Necanicum hatchery.
It is a noticeable fact that there have
been an unusual number of Plrangers in
Oregon City, during the'past few weeks,
and hoiel keepers report the fact that
they are continually crowded." It is
nothing unusual for hotel proprietors to
turn strangers away who are unable to
secure beds. It also is encouraging to
note the manner in which the hereto
fore vacant store rooms are filling up on
lower Main street. It is an encouraging
fact that Oregon City is beginning to at
tract attention from the outBide world.
With the exception of the frtmework
Roos has made virt ually a new struc
ture out of the building a t the corner of
Eighth and Main streets. The building
was originally used as a store by the
Hudson Bay Company in the eatly 40's,
and was located near where the woolen
mill now stands. Considerable of the
old framework is still in position in the
historic structure, as sound as when it
was put in place by the carpenters in co
lonial davs. The building has had a
varied career, during its period of nearly
60 years of history,
The choicest of the potato crop of
Clackamas cnuuty has been purchased
and shipped although Messrs. Shank &
Bissell expect to secure another carload.
It pays only to ship large and nniform
sizes of potates, aa these qualities in
sure a ready sale. There is still an
extensive supply of small potatoes, but
they will not command prices that will
pay for shipping. There is an occasional
demand for small potatoes by restau
rants, etc., but they must be near as
possible of a uniform small size. If
growers will sort their potatoes they can
always be assured of receiving tha high
est market price. If the small potatoes
will not bring a good price, they can be
profitably fed to stock.
The new coyote scalp bounty law is
changed somewhat from the old one.
The county clerk subscribes to the affa-
davit of the owner of the scalp, and re
tains posession of the same and the bill
is audited at the regular monthly term
of the county eourt. A certificate of the
warrants issued are Bent to the secre
tary of state, and the county is re-in-bursed
for two-thirds of the amount
paid out. Following is section I of the
new law : Any person who shall here
after kill within the state of Oregon,
any wild cat, coyote, mountain lion,
panther, cougar, gray wolf, or timber
wolf, shall be entitled to a bounty of $2.
for each of such animal as hereafter
provided.
The January oulletin from the dairy
department of the 'Oregon Agricultural
Experiment Station at CorVallis, has
been received at this office. It was'com
piledbyF. L. Kent, and treats of the
"Creameries and Cheese Factories of
Western Oregon." Mention is made of !
the Logan cheese factory, and the valu
ation of the plant is placed at $1500 with
A. H. Olrastead, manager; Vetch Bros '
Damascus creamery, A . Vetch, manager ;
cost $1200. No mention, however, is
made of Kauffman's creamery in Needy
precinct. By the time that another
bulletin shall be' issued next January,
there will be a halt dozen more cheese
factories and creameries in CUekamas
county. The bulletin contains much
useful information to those engaged in,
or who contemplate embarking in the
creamery business. The bulletin will
be sent free by the agricultural college
to anyone who requests it.
ROBERT K. POTTER
Dies in an Astoria Hospital After
Being Rescued from Drowning.
Robert K. Potter, a prominent early
pioneer of Oregon City, died in the hos
pital at Astoria at 12 o'clock Sunday
night, after being rescued from a watery
grave a few hours previous. The fol
lowing account ot the narrow escipe
from drowning is taketi from the Ore-
Ionian of Monday morning :
"iiroropt work byUaptam !S. touison
and First Officer J. J. Apperson, of the
steamer Hassalo, saved I lie life of Robert
Potter, of Oregon City, who fell over
board near Astoria yesterday morning.
"As the steamer was opposite Tongue
Point and about six miles from Astoria,
Mr. Potter came out of his stateroom
and went to the rail and, holding on to a
stanchion, began to cough. .He lust his
balance and fell overboard. The .only
person who saw him go overboard was
one of the waiters, who immediately
cried out, "Man overboard 1" Captain
UouIsod stopped tne engine as soon as
he heard the cry and turned the wheel
hard over. Before the boat had gone
her length he started the wheel again
and turned back on his course in search
of the man. He ordered one of the
boats to be cleared away. Soon he saw
the elbow and back of the head of a man
in the water.
"First Officer Anderson and t vo of the
crew jumped in the small boat and
rowed to the place where the man had
disappeared. They found him floating,
but unconscious. He was taken on
board the steamer, after having been in
the water for nearly ten minutes. Vol
unteers from the crew aud passengers
began the work of resuscitation. After
five minutes of hard work the man was
out of danger. Upon tbe arrival of the
steamer at Astoria, Mr. Potter ' w is
taken to the hospital."
Mrs. Potter stated that Mr. Potter had
been continually in the house, for the
past five months, being almost helpless
with rheumatism. He arose earlier
than nsual Saturday morning, and in
response to an inquiry, stated that he
felt as well as usual, and drank a cup of
coffee. While the members of the fam
ily were busily occupied, at about half
paBt seven, Mr. rotter drove away in a
carriage, which he had previously or
dered from a livery stable. On the re
turn of Mrs. Potter to the front room, a
note was found, saying - good-bye until
he returned from his trip. A daughter
was at bis bedside in Astoria, when he
died. '
Robert K. Potter was born in Monroe
county, N. Y., and,would have been 88
years old, had he lived until April 15th,
He came to Oregon in 1852. and was
married to Miss Mary E. Patterson in
May, 1855, who survives him. He was
engaged in active business for many
years and was widely known. The de
ceased was a first cousin to Bishop
