Clackamas County Distributors THE COURIER FOR FINE PRINTING! News of the County and Suburbs Local and County Items of Interest to Our Readers CHERRYVILLE PHILOSOPHY dry. Beautiful May weather, but rather The frosts in the latter part of April did a . little damage in streaks here. Cherries and prunes will be rather a later crop here but npples. pears, plums and berries look like a big crop. Work will begin at the dam this week and a iorce of about 25 men will be given work for a period of two months or more. The foolish threat to "knock" the Courier if plain speaking about econ omic conditions and reforms was not stopped, received the right kind of an answer from the editor. These Browns nre the right stuff and it seems the Courier has one of the same name and same nature as the old war-horse down at Corvallis now. More power to your elbow, "Brer" Brown! reeling the manner of proceedure in that war against poor wretches struggling for a decent living. He will be called before the commission pgain and confronted with his own letters. One of our young men went on an exploring expedition lately and after e tedious and hazardous trip discov- ered a lake between- two mountain peaks on the Cascades, south Cherryville, that covered about acres. In this lake "mud-puppies' v. sort of water lizard, abounded, and by reason of their abundance the trout were of great size. On ac count of the clear water the trout could easily bo seen and the inform ant said they were fully two feet long. The same condition exists in Montana, where trout weighing 10 pounds have been caught in mountain lakes, which abounded m these mud puppies. In the arguments before the su preme court at Washington one at torney for tho dofendant railroad company advanced tho utterly absurd legal statement that inasmuch as the government did not proceed at once against them when they first broke the letter and spirit of their contract by Belling land in large tracts than 160 acres, therefore they have no recourse now and cannot legally claim a forfeiture. In other words, if a person whom you know steals your cow tonight and you do not at once have him arrested then in a few days he can come back and steal your horse and you have no recourse. Wonderfully brilliant intellect that evolved this stupendous argument (?) He ought to bo sent to tho U. S. senate along with "Boob'' Penrose of Pennsylvania, and "Windjammer" Jones of Washington. Frank Wahh, chairman of the In dustrial Commission, says ho has the goods on young John D. Rcoke feller. of Colorado coal strike fame. This precious saint (?) and absurd hypocrite swore before the commis sion a short time ago that. he had nothing to do with the Colorado coal strike, where 11 people lost their lives. Now Walsh has letters in his possession from young Johnnie di- Rov. John Boyd, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Portland, who has a summer home here, said late ly in a sermon that disorderly hous cs could bo found not moro than five blocks from his church, and that ac cording to the insurance commission er, 90 por cent of the fires in the city were of incendiary origin to get the insurance money, and that the divorces each year nearly equalled tho number of marriages, and added in conclusion that our civilization was very nearly a failure. By the ranio token some prominent church members rent houses for immoral purposes on account of the huge rent paid, and if uomo of these nominal Christians would pny decent wage to their employees they would lead decent lives. The writer is convers ant with conditions in Chicago, hnv ing visited many of the slums in his capacity as reporter and news gatherer and knows that many so- called respectable people are re sponsible for the awful conditions existing in our cities. Admiral Fisk, of tho U. S. navy, in testifying be- Jore a house committee this past winter said that "business as it exists today is hell." It sure is! New plank is being laid on our roads now, and soon every place whore the roads are liable to be bad in wet weather, ineludinir hills, will bo planked and good roads will be continued up into the mountains. The auto road is now in fine shape. HIGHLAND j ter, and Mrs. R. B. Gibson, made a 1 trip to Portland last Friday.
