The weather for the past week has been salubrious just right for webfeet. At this rate Oregon will not be long making up for deficiency of rain. The roads of this section are bad enough, but will compare favorably with other sec tions of the county. The people anticipate much improvement, as they are paving a heavy road tax and are willing to pay more if the money is properly used to the best public advantage. The fishing season is now open and boats are being taken up river daily on wagons, and their owners fish down river to Oregon City where the fish are transported to Port land. The pale lace fisherman has taken the place of the red man whose teepes once dotted the banks of .the Clackamas river when the royal chinook were plenty. We noticed several fishing bouts going up the river a week before the close season was up. We think it woulil he a good idea for the state fish commissioner to appoint a deputy to watch the Clackamas river for ille gal processes of fishing. It is a matter of regret that the last legis lature did not makethe Clackamas river a close stream against all comers in behalf ol the United States fish hatchery. If the sal mon which are taken out by the boats were Allowed to ascend to the headwaters of the Clackamas river it would be ons of the best locations In the state for a hatchery. We hope that Mr. Hubbard, superintend ent of the f nlted Stales lish hatchery, with the help of State Game Protector McUuIre, will be successful In removing the Cross dam which is an impediment to salmon as cending the stream. We do not understand why some will per sist in catching the last fish there is without giving them a chance to propagate their species. It is the same as if a granger had a bushel of wheat only and ate it up instead of sowing it to get mors. M. Rheibhoff recently sold four Jersey cows to a dairyman near Portland. Mrs. C.

It is rumored that some of the amateur Mazamas oflogan will attempt the ascen sion of Cougar mountain when the snow has disappeared in the spring. Quite a number of Logan people went to Oregon City last Sunday to see the perform ances. Rl'BY. NEW ERA NEWS. Arbor Day FlttlnglyObserved-Dwelllnc House Bnrned-Narrow Escape of a Fireman. New Era, April 13. Benjamin Otflcer, who has been stopping with Dr. Casto for a year or more, has started for Australia, so it is said. Mrs. McKenzie and family, of Youngs town, Ohio, are visiting with her brother, Prvid McArthur. They intend to make Oregon their home hereafter. Mr. Baumann is having a well dug. He has dug several wells before and got no wa ter. Says he will go eighty feet this time or get water. Arbor day was remembered at Brown's school bouse in district f3. Three trees were planted. The first was a locust tree, which, by a vote of those present, was named Abraham Lincoln. A bottle, with the names of all the pupils and visitors present placed in it, was planted under the tree. The next tree planted was a maple and was named Grant. The next and last was a cork elm, which was planted next to Abraham Lincoln and was named James A. Gartield. These trees are the first ones set out at this school bouse. They were well planted and will likely grow and become fine trees. Charles Rutherford is teaching the school here. George Randall is getting ready to build a hop house, Miss Lucy Findlay is working in Oregon City. Herman Anthony's bouse burned down today about three o'clock P. M. The tire caught from the stove pipe. The neighbors lent their assistance and saved all the con tents of the bouse except the stove. No In surance. George Penman went through the house in quest of Mr. Anthony's small boy, who they thought was inside, just as the roof fell in. Luckily Mrs. Kief had the child at her house just across the street. So you see we have good material for fire men in our midst. Ed. Joslvn is talking of buying a farm In our neighborhood. Redland Ripples. Redlard, April 15. Rev. A. P. Gillett, pastor of the M.

The rest of our people who have been on the sick list are about recov ered. A. Mather, of Clackamas, has been having several acres of laud cleared on his 40-aore tract here. Mr. Kanne has aheut completed the clear ing of live or six acres of land In the north west corner of his farm. This will make quite an improvement to his place. Wm. Couusell, with a small force of hands, commenced clearing out the road on a grade at Mr. Kanne's last Friday. We understand the road is to be graded down shortly. If this Is done, followed by being well graveled, it will make a substantial im provement, J. Davis has completed a board fence along the south line of his place. The trustees of the Evangelical church are waiting for a survey of the church prop erty before erecting a substantial board fence around it. Orne Battln and Mr. Payne of this place have a contract to dig a large ditch In Wash ington, near La Center, for I'.'.VX). We are inlormed that Mr. Kanne lias again had his farm surveyed. A very enjoyable meeting was that ol the Christian Endeavorers Sunday evening. At its close a short business meeting was held, President Gillord presiding. Elder Schtichnicht, of the Evangelical church was visiting among us last Thurs day, and preached an able sermon at the church in the evening of that day.

Battin returned last week from a visit with relatives near La Center, Wash ington. CANBY NEWS. Road Being traveled -Lecture on Popular Themes-Easter Servleet Held. Cakht, April 17. The road leading from here to the Goode bridge is being graveled. L. I). Shank, the supervisor, has eight teams hauling gravel from the S. P. Co. 'a gravel pit, where it is so arranged that the wagons are quickly loaded by means of road scrap ers. More than one hundred loads are buuled each day on the road. We trust the county court will let us have enough money to1 gravel the road to the bridge.

Mrs. Additon is an able speaker. The house was well tilled and the lecture welt received. Mr. Stewart, from Vancouver, B. C, lec tured in the M. E. church Tuesday evening. His subject was, " Christianity from a Scien tific Slandpoint." Mr. Stewart is a good talker, but it seems to us If he would con fine himsell to easier subjects it would suit his caliber better and make him more of a success. Tom l'omeroy. a sick man who was stop ping here at Mrs. Chas. Knight s for some time, was provided by the county court last Monday with a railroad ticket to Ne braska wbere he has a brother residing. Roth the churches here had appropriate Easter services, the M. E. church in the forenoon and the Christian church in the evening.
