OREGON CITY ENTERPRISE, FRIDAY, FEHRUARY 23, 1900
I CORRESPONDENCE J
lirdlntid
li kkiand, F I). IS. TIioko who
thought fpring at lie re will begin to
think diflWiMit pretty toon, wont they?
In my article o( the 4th in regard to
tlut paragraph about Harry Hubert, I
will Pity I was mihinformed and t tie boy
was to blame as the evidence has shown,
Am aony it wa reorted an it whs.
In regard to thut road aohcine from
ths south end of Oregon City I would
1 ke to say a few words. To build that
lliie of road, it would take all of the
county road fund tor the next year, and
leave the roads elsewhere to the mercy
of the unmerciful wood haulers and
teamsters. This pieee of road would
save a iew people one or two hours' drive
in coming to,and going from Oregon City,
when to leave all the rest ot the roads
without repair, would canon 00 per cent
of the people one to two hours more time
so it looks to mo as if it would be much
better to let those few people, who live
within four or six miles of town, spend
one or two hoars more in going and re
tnrninir from town, than to let those
who live out at Molalla, Highland and
Ppnngwater, who have 20 miles or more
to go be from one to two hours longer
toiling through the mud in the dark.
And as for those people about Canby,
Maeksburg, Needy and the like they
tiave a much better road down the river
than can be got the other way in many
years, if it is crossed several times by
the S. 1'. R. R. If the south end of
town does not get enough trade to suit
tbem, it is because they do not do the
fair thing by the people, for it is as Mr.
Dresser says "most of the people go to
the south end of town to put up their
horses." Now, these men that have
been in favor, of this road would be the
first to kick when the people ot this com
munity and Logan wishes to construct a
good road to Fortland, where man can
sell a load of oats, hay or potatoes. The
Enterprise says "the way to build np
Oregon City is to give Oregon City your
trade." I say the way for Oregon City
to build itselt up is to patronize those
who come there to trade and not to try
to get their produce for nothing, and
charge two prices for their goods. Those
who favor building that road would not
receive a very warm reception in this
part of the county.
There will be a hot time in town if
you dont attend the social Friday night,
at the school house. All are invited,
men with pocket books and ladies with
pies.
x. Claude Stone left last week for Idaho,
where he expects to get employment and
better his health which is very poor.
Ralph Bacon was seen in town the
first of the week.
An Iowa gentleman by the name of
Koontj was in town one day last week,

'est Linn were over at Eagle Creek, to

taxed with work. The good name he
has made brings custom from far and near
and the people of Viola and surrounding
country places the utmost confidence in
him and we with him all the success
possible.
We soon expect to have a saw mill
near us. Mr. Livermore, ol Springwa er,
contemplates moving his mill about two
miles up the creek from Viola where
there is an abundance of fine timber.
We speed the time when any enterprise
starts among us. Viola has been dead
long enough, let us start the w heel of
prosperity running and awaken old Viola
from her long dreary slumbers to one of
life of days gone by.

the Indian's prognostications, concern
ing the weather, was heavily strained on
St. Valentines day, by a beautiful coato
drifting snow and the themometer crawl
ing away down into its self, and staying
there for three or four days. We mav
