PASTURES NEED RAIN.
Eggs Are Out of Sight and Poultry
People Fortunate.
The short rain of Thursday morn
Ing was enough to lay , the dust for
the County Fair, but not enough to
help the pastures that are needing a
good wetting. The warm weather of
tho past week was only a provoking
after-thought of the weather man, af
ter thousands of dollars of g-irden
tmck had been spoiled by a fctv cold
nights.
I'here Is a slight advance In the
price of oats through this sjctiua of

steady. Eggs are golug up out of

And the wind coming up
With. a slight show of bluster,
They both skidded off
Through the nlr bolly buster.
And while they were flying
About a mile high,
The Roosevelt ontry
Emitted a cry;
And llrynn, supposing
He'd dropped from tho race,
Slowed up with a horrified

The stern law's clutches reached
out Tuesday afternoon and grasped
Augiisr Erickson, proprietor of Clack
amas Tavern, and he will have to an
Bwer to the king deferred charge of
selling liquor without a license.
Erickson and his attorney, George C.
Browndl, appeared before Justice of
the Peace Samson, and asked that the
case be continued until Thursday
when the former North End concert
hall proprietor will plead. He gave
bonds In the sum of $250 for his ap
pearance.
The arrest of Erickson ends a watch
that the authorities have kept jver
the Tavern for several months and
they have obtained evidence that la
so conclusive that the accused man
can hardly escape. The penalty for
selling liquor without a county license
is a fine of not less than $400 or more
than $800, and Erickson's flagrant vio
lation of the law may give blm the
long end of the penalty.
The site of Clackamas Tavern, four
miles from Oregon City up the Clack- ,
a mas River, was formerly used by
Erickson as a stock farm, but about
two years ago he Inaugurated his
Tavern and soon after he attempted
to obtain a license from the county,
but the storm of opposition was so
great that the petition was with
drawn. Flying in the face of the law.
Erickson proceeded to retail liquor,
having a bar In his resort and placard
ing the fences along the road with
beer and whiskey advertisements, and
also Issuing printed liquor lists
through the mails. People from Port
land and Oregon City have gone to
tiie place frequently and been enter
tained. More than once the authori
ties have tried to secure direct evi
dence against Erickson. but tt was not
easy to find a man who would go to
the place and swear to a complaint
under which successful prosecution
could be made. Sheriff Beatle and
Deputy District Attorney Stipp look
ed for many weeks in vain for a man
with nerve enough to procure the nec
essary evidence and at lasct they
thought of Constable Miles, who was
game. 1
Miles went out to Clackamas Tav
ern last Thursday, entered the build
ing and sauntered leisurely through
the dining room and bar room and
finally atracted the attention of Erickson.
"Can't you let me have something
to get the dust out of my eyes?" quer
ied the plain clothes man.
"Sure," said Erickson. "I have some
near beer."
"That won't take the dust out of
my eyes." taid Miles. "Haven't you
got any whiskey?"
Erickson fell head over heels into
the trap and brought some Scotch
that he said was worth $8 a gallon.
Miles took a drink of this and then
sampled another brand and after
drinking a botle of beer with Erick
son, he purchased a half pint of whis
key and brought the stuff to Oregon
City with him.
Tuesday afternoon Sheriff Beetle in
formed Erickson by telephone that he
had a warrant for his arrest, and the
Tavern man agreed to cfame into town.
An hour later his big red automobile
stopped In front of Attorney Brown-
ell's office and after a brief consulta
tion the required ball was furnisheJ.
Erickson was extremely reticlent
Last month Erickson made a second
attempt to obtain a license from the
County Court to sell beer. The people
of Gladstone, however, presented an
overwhelming remonstrance and
Erickson has had the fact demonstrat
ed to him that it is useless to try to
secure a license to sell liquor in Aber
nethy Precinct.
Erickson waived examination In
the Justice Court yesterday and gave
bonds In the sum of $750 for his ap
pearance at the November term of
the Circuit Court.
