Logan Locals.
Loo as, April 15. 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. Wolfer has been quite sick but is

mile of new combination fence. We wel

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.

Herman Anthony's bouse burned down

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.

several acres of laud cleared on his 40-aore

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
