BEAVER CREEK GIVEN
LIBERALLY TO ROAD
CLACKAMAS SOUTHERN RAILWAY
RECEIVES LIBERAL 8U08CRIP
T!0N8 TUESDAY EVENING,
Throw of the board of director, of
tho Clackamas Southern Hallway wont
to Heaver Creek Tuesday evening to
bold a meeting fur tho promotion of
llio project of building tho new rail
way out Besver Creek way through to
Molalln and thn Molalla country. The
meeting was held In the Ora'ige Hall
and there was a largo and enthusias
tic gathering.
Tboso who went to Denver Creek
were O. B Dlmlck, O. I). Eby and F.
M. Hwlft, and they were Joined In ad
dressing the men present by several
residents of Heaver Creek and vicin
ity. It proved a very euthuslustlc
gathering and considerable money was
raised for the pushing ahead of the
work on the line. In fact more money
wa. raised at Beaver Creek and by
subscriptions tliut camo In voluntarily
on Tuesday than the whole work of
promotion and grading done so far has
cost.
The people of Beaver Creek recog
nize whitt tho Improvement will mean
lo tho county at large and to tho sorp
tion traversal. Whllo tho road will
prove a greut convenience to Heaver
Creek cltl.ens who wish to come to
the city, or to ship their products
here, still tho further away from tho
count ysi'iit the greater the benefit to
be received so (bat from Molulla way
there should be added deslro to sue
tho road built. In fnct tho further
from this city the road advances Into
the country the greater benefits that
will come to those living In the sec
tion to be traversed.
Considering these fact, the subscrip
tion, from llouver Creek are very flat
tering, and then when the promoters
stop to consider the many promises of
further support that Is to come from
this section there Is every Incentive
jo rontlmio In the good work of rais
ing funds for the additional work that
II aeems wise to do In fully equipping
and operutlng the line a. a contribu

"There la a reason for the seeming
nhnrtnesii in cash at this time. The
bank with which I am connected Is
one of the .mall ones, and yet our
balances are $28,000 les. now than a
year ago. We figured on the auto
proposition to see If It could have any
thlnir to do In the matter. As a result
we could fleure up IH5.000 that bad

ENCOURAGEMENT.
The finding of oil and gas In the
well drilled in on the McBrlde farm
some three miles from Molalla has led
to those gentlemen desiring to know
how much there Is In the ground at a
point where the small amount was
found last week.
Contract has been let for a second
well, and this is to be a test well for
oil or gas and have no desire to se
cure water. It will be but a short dis
tance from tho first well, which Is
showing a good flow of water. Rivers
ft McGregor have been given the con
tract to drill In the second well, and
yesterday a new drill and other para
phernalia were ' shipped In and new
gasoline lamps secured so that the
drill may run night and' day.
FISHERMEN WHO VISIT MILK
CREEK FIND ITS SURFACE
COVERED. WITH SAWDUST.
A quartet of local fishermen were
out to Milk Creek for u little 'sport
Friday. They had their sport but got
few fish, part of which was not their
own fault
Conditions at certain point, on Milk
Creek need attention of the fish com
missioner. Below the saw mill there
Is a stretch of water for at least a
half mile where the water can scarce
be seen for a heavy scum of saw dust
This has a deleterious effect on fish,
and In consequence ha. a bad effect
on the fishing. There were also logs
and floating debris strewn over tbe
surface of the stream to tbe annoy
ance of fishermen and to the detriment
of the people living In that section.
There Is a State law which provides
that no sawdust shall be dumped into
running streams, and shall not be so
strewn that the raise may wash U
Into the streams. Tbe condition found
at Milk Creek 1. In direct violation of
this law, it Is said. So far a. was to
be seen on the surface no effort is
made to keep the sawdust from wash
ing Into the stream, and In some
places It Is evident that there Is pains
taken to have the dust wash In so
that it may float away and save the
mill men tbe expense of putting It out
of tbe way of the workmen with the
least possible expense.
An attempt wa. made some time
ago. It is said, to put a stop to the pol
lution of this stream. The matter wa.
taken up before the grand Jury but
for some reason It was dropped
either It wa. too much trouble for tbe
Jury to go and see for themselves or
no one took any Interest in placing
the evidence before the Jury, In any
event the matter wa. not given further
attention. A. there is a flagrant viola
tion of the law In condition, on Milk
Creek, and as the grand jury soon to
convene will be sworn to do It. whole
duty, it may not be amis, to suggest
that Milk Creek receive attention at
the coming session of the jury. .

MEMBERS OF LADIES OF SECUR
ITY DROP IN TO SPEND
THE DAY.
The horses lost by P. D. Newell of
Jennings Lodge, have been found. ;
They were rounded up In Portland,
two In one place and the third In ;
another. Deputy Sheriff Bugler assist
ed In locating them, and when Newell '
Identified his animals the Sheriff took ,
possession in his name. j
Officer. Shaw and Brown are still
of the opinion that the horse, were
taken through Oregon City, a. the
story wss told several days ago. They i
are still of this opinion for the reason
that they were seen by too many peo
ple for all of them to be mistaken. !
What wa. done was, evidently, to troll
them In one direction In broad daylight
sr that there might be many witnesses
to the horses and the direction they i
were going, and then after night turn
about and sneak them off In another. -This
is an old trick of the game, and
one that will often fool people wh6
are not awake to the plays that a ;
smart thief will put up to fool one.
