CLARK N. GREENMAN TRANSFERS
BUSINESS HE STARTED
42 YEARS AGO.
A deal was made Friday morning
which will transfer the business of
Clark N. Greenman. the Pioneer ex
press man to E. F. Grisez.
Clark Nelson Greenman entered the
transfer business in Oregon City in
June, 1863, when this city was only a
small village, built along the river
bank. Only a few residences at that
time were built on the hill, and but
few beyond the Congregational
church. The business section was
scattered along Main street as far as
the Red front, but was principally lo
cated near the woolen mills. Mr.
Greenman's business did not take him
more than twice a week on the hill
m the Seventh street district and
then only when some one moved his
household goods to that section to
make his home.
Mr. Greenman retires after 42 years
of active business life. When seen
Friday morning. Mr. Greenman said
that he would not give up yet, but
as he was getting past 73 years of
age, he thought that his time for re
tiring from active business had come.
"It will take me years to realize the
fact that I have nothing in the world
to do end that I have not a single
horse or wagon -to my name."
Mr. Greenman came to Oregon City
In January, 1S34, just 33 years ago.
Before going into the express busi
ness he traveled and prospected for
several years. He will retire from ac
tive business and Bert Greenman will
stay about a month with the new own
er, long enough to show him the run
of things. Bert will then return to
the hatchery work, being an expert in
that line. He was employed for six
or seven years at the Clackamas
hatchery some years ago.

OGLE MINERS COME
OUT ON SNOW SHOES
HEAVY FALL OF THE BEAUTIFUL
ATTENDS THEIR JOURNEY
MINE NEWS.
Three miners were In Oregon City
Friday morning from the Ogle moun
tain district. They are I). J. Thorne,
C. H. Smith and Rob Sherer. The trip
was made out by the way of Gates
and Albany on the Corvallls & East
ern and then to Oregon City by tho
Southern Pacific.
The miners had to travel on snow
shoes to Gates, a distance of about
15 miles. Snow fell all the time they
were traveling and the first part of
the trip was made through four feet
of snow.
Mr. Thorne has a claim adjoining
the Ogle mountain mines, In which
he owns a half Interest and Cham
bers Howell and Mr. Olsen of the elec
tric plant own the other half. They
have done a good deal of work on
their claim and Mr. Thorne believes
it to be as good as the Fairclough and
Harless mines.
Mr. Thorne may return to the mines
in a short time. The came out to
ge't supplies. He also spoke of the
work of the Ogle mines and said the
large gang of miners were working
fast as possible and that the 10-stamp
mill was kept busy night and day.
The efforts of the men are being cen
tered upon widening the space where
the tunnel strikes the 13 foot ledge.
The ore is keeping up to the stand
ard and gives indications of being
much richer.
The men came out through Gates
as that route seems to be easier to
travel at this time of the year. But
when the subject of the proposed road
through Red Rock mountain and Mo
lalla was brought up Mr. Thorne be
came enthusiastic and said that was
the only way out of the mining dis
trict. All the miners favor the opening up
of the new road by the way of Mo
lalia as so much time is being wasted
by the change of trains and train con
nections. The new road if built will
be an easy one and travel to the
mines would be assured the year
round.
Mr. Thorne left town for his home
at Maple Lane Friday morning.
Butte, Mont., mail carriers will re
sign because they cant live on $000
a year. Congressmen who recently
j voted to increase their own pay to
more than 12 times the carriers pay,
cannot be expected to pay any atten
tion to such kicks.
Alleged evidence in a f-afe at Colo
rado Springs, against the miners' fed
eration officials in jail in Idaho was
destroyed by Pettybone's "hellfire," a
new liquid explosive.

Cash Business at Court House During
January Increase In Record
er's Fees Tax Roll
Complete.
Friday, February 1, was pay day at
tho court house, and all tho officials
were In good humor. Outside of this
the official business center of the
county seat was very quiet.
The recorder's fees during month
of January show quite a substantial
increase over January of last year.
For January, 1907, the recorder's fees
amount to $359.55, whlo a year ago
tho fees amounted to only $348.75.
The receipts of the county clerk's
offlco for January are $171, and had
the circuit judge been able to have
completed his work during the last
month those receipts would have been
swollen more than $100.
February 1, is the beginning of the
strenuous work for the occupants of
the sheriff's office as the tax roll has
been completed and was handed over
to the sheriff, Friday morning. The
taxes are now payable. The fees In
the office of the sheriff have been very
small during the last month and only
amount to $16.40.
The amount of cash on hand In the
treasury Is not as largo as that of the
same month last year. The balance
on hand the first of February, 1907,
Is $11,155.44 and $1,237.63 was paid
out. The deputy treasurer, Miss Pad
dock, stated that she had pleasing
news for the people of tho county as
a call for county warrants was to be
made next week. County Treasurer
Paddock will be able to attend to his
duties the first of the week.

BEES SAYS U'REN
W. S. U'Ron returned Saturday ov
onlng from Salem where ho bus boon
working In the Interest of some of
tho measures, which ho has had In
troduced before tho legislature. When
asked as to. tho work of tho house and
senate, Mr. U'Ren sntd that tho pros,
ent legislature had been working hard
and in fact much harder than many
of tho previous sessions. If It had not
been delayed by tho bawblo of tho
printing which delayed tho work near
ly a week, many of tho bills and meas
ures would have now been passed or
rejected. At It Is now, a great many
of these bills are ready for tho third
reading and will bo acted upon this
week.
Mr. U'Ren will return to Salom
Tuesday morning unless ho Is kept
by tho high water.
VEGETABLES PEW
AND HIGH PRICED
Dearth of Cabbages and Carrots Po
tatoes Retailing at 91.35
a Sack.
The market has practically taken
no jumps during tho last week, yet
there Is quite a changn In the potato
market, and tho local merchants say
It Is very hard to get potatoes and
that those that can be bought In the
market have come up 10 and 15 cents
per sack. They are now soiling at
$1.20 to $1.35 a sack.
All garden truck Is scarce and Mon
day the local market was shy of cab
bage, ruttabegas, carrots, parsnips,
beets, etc. They aro still quoted at
the same price of 75 cents a sack,
but the merchants aro unable to se
cure much. There was practically a
famine of garden truck In tho market
Monday.
WOULD A FISH WARDEN BE IFT
It looks as though the upper Colum
bia men who are after Master Fish
Warden Van Dusen's scalp, will get
It all right He Is accused of nearly
everything except knowing his busi
ness. F. A. Seufert of Tho Dalles says
In establishing the hatchery at On
tario, they allege, the Master Warden
used poor judgment, since demonstrat
ed by tho Inability of the hatchery to
secure salmon for propagation, re
sulting practically In Idleness. The
operation of tho hatchery on the Mc
Ketizle, It Is represented, has proved
a failure as to tho successful distribu
tion of the fish that aro propagated
there. This station Is doing more
hatchery work than any' other In Col
umbia waters, but, asks Mr. Seufert,
how ran they reach tho sea to grow
Into adult fish when on their Journey
down stream they have to pass
through the power wheels of the fac
tories at Orepon City 7 "What would
you give for a salmon," says he, "that
l.i chewed up by those wheels, or for
a million salmon?"
J. I". Campbell, tho well known Ore
gon City attorney, Is alleged to bo
willing to accept tho Job of Master
fish warden, and If. A. Webster of
this county, the present deputy war
den, I:i an active candidate for Van
Dusen's place.
